Health Div. of Highways Wildlife Resources Commission Div. of Water Resources Div. of Marine Fisheries _ - Recommendations for State Permit - Steve Thompson Since Town Creek is classified as inland waters and there are no coastal wetland species present, the area comes under CAMA jurisdiction by way of Public Trust waters and consistency with local, state and federal programs. The floating docks are consistent with the management objectives and use standards for Public Trust Areas (7H.0207). The proposed boat ramp and four foot wide walkways, though technically are not within coastal wetlands, are still consistent with use standards set forth for Coastal Wetlands (7H.0209). The pottery studio, which is proposed to be located on the upland portion of the lot with an attached deck on pilings is outside of CAMA's jurisdiction but is consistent with federal regulations. It was disclosed during conversation with a Corps of Engineers (COE) representative that the filling of 0.3 acres of federal wetlands is not consistent with COE regulations and such action would require a separate review and an individual permit. There are also concerns from CAMA that the filling of wetlands adjacent to Public Trust waters may result in water quality degradation (7H.0208). The COE representative also disclosed that 0.1 acres or less of fill in federal wetlands may be authorized under a Nationwide Permit #18, which would not require separate review and could be conditioned on the CAMA major permit. If strategically placed along the marginal fringe of wetlands adjacent to the upland, 0.1 acres of fill could possibly increase the parking area while maintaining most of the filtering capacity of the wetlands. Effective sedimentation and erosion control measures should further lessen the impact. Based on the above, I recommend allowing the applicant to fill only 0.1 acres of federal wetlands according to aitd under the guidance of a DCM field representative and US Corps of Engineers concurrence. If the applicant insists on filling 0.3 acres of wetlands, I recommend the applicant obtain a separate review and an individual permit from the Corps of Engineers. I have no objections to the proposed project subject to the following conditions: 1) All proposed development and associated construction must be done in accordance with the permitted work plat drawings submitted on February 21, 1996, except, proposed fill in wetlands shall be reduced from 0.3 acres to 0.1 acres. 2) No excavated or fill material will be placed at any time, in any marsh or surrounding waters, outside of the alignment of the fill area indicated during an onsite meeting with a DCM representative prior to initiation of work. 3) This permit authorizes only 0.1 acres of fill and requires a Nationwide # 18 Permit from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. 4; The fill material will be clean and free of any pollutants, except in trace quantities. 1 ftff-products„ organic-materialf,—or uaslghtiy debris wtt��used. 5) Prior to initiating any land -disturbing activities, a barrier line of filter cloth, staked hay bales, or burlap must be installed between the land -disturbing activity and the adjacent marsh or water areas, until such time as the area has been properly stabilized with a vegetated cover. \ 6) \-) This permit authorizes only the docks, piers, and other structures and uses located in or over the water �j that are expressly and specifically set forth in the permit application. No other structures, whether floating or stationary, may become a permanent part of this docking facility without permit modification. No non -water dependent uses od structures may be conducted on, in or over public trust waters without permit modification. Am 7) The docks and associated structures shall have a minimum setback distance of 15' between any parts of the structure and the adjacent property lines as extended perpendicular to the channel into the water at Pe points where they intersect the shoreline. 8) q No attempt will be made by the permittee to prevent the full and free use by the public of all navigable waters at or adjacent to the authorized work. 9) I The authorized structure and associated activity must not cause an unacceptable interference with navigation. 10) Q No sewage, whether treated or untreated, shall be discharged at any time from boats using the docking facility. Any sewage discharge at the docking facility shall be considered a violation of this permit for which the permittee is responsible. This prohibition shall be applied and enforced throughout the entire existence of the permitted structure. NOTE: Plans and specifications of all water system improvements must be approved by the Division of Environmental Health prior to the award of a contract or the initiation of construction (as required by 10 NCAC, lOD.0900, et. seq). For information, contact the Public Water Supply Section at (919) 733-2460. NOTE: The applicant should contact the local Health Department regarding their requirements for septic tank installations (as required under 10 NCAC, 10A.1900, et. seq).

CONSISTENCY OPINION' 'There are many aspects of this Projectwhich are Consistent County. Efforts to�mcrease public access twithe Brunswick County o our Use Plan and which are appealing for the streams and waters are generally supported by the Division of Coastal Management as well. to filling of 0.3 acres of federal wetlands is inconsistent with the land use plats, especially whew the wetland is a valuable buffer between highway and creek and the fill would increase stortnwater runoff by adding more impervious surface. Is there any way to mitigate for the proposed loss? The applicant does not propose to filter parking lot runoff through constructed vegetative buffers or traps. He also indicates that trees will be left its the fill arm. Can these trees survive the placement of 3 feet of fill on their root system? With the exception of the wetland fill, this project would be consistent with the Land Use Plan if all conditions placed on the permit by DCM and other review agencies were met and if all permits required by Brunswick County are received. Applicant should also be reminded of the allowed uses over Public 'Trust Waters.

Fullwood, Executive Director MEMORANDUM TO: John Parker, Jr. Major Permits Processing -11 FROM: Bennett Wynne ADZJ Habitat Conservation Program DATE: March 27, 1996 SUBJECT: CAMA/Dredge and Fill Permit Application for Stephen Thompson, on north side of US HWY 17 next to Town Creek, near Winnabow, Brunswick County, North Carolina. The Wildlife Resources Commission has reviewed the project for impacts to wildlife and fishery resources. A site visit was made on March 26, 1996. Our comments are provided in accordance with provisions of the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (48 Stat. 401, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661 et. seq.) and the Coastal Area Management Act (G.S. 113A-100 through 113A-128). The applicant proposes to open a small boat\canoe rental business and pottery studio on a virtual island of highground next to Town Creek. Two floating boat docks have already been installed. Plans call for construction of a small oyster shell boat ramp and a deck with a 240 ft. long by 5 ft. wide walkway elevated over wooded wetlands along the creek. Also proposed is the filling of 0.3 acre of wetlands between the island and highway right-of-way for a parking area." Town Creek is classified as Class C swamp waters. At present, the wetlands between the island and US 17 provide a stormwater buffer between the highway and Town Creek. Therefore, these wetlands provide a water quality 'protection function that benefits the stream's fisheries resources. In our opinion, filling the wetlands would reduce stormwater filtration capacity in a critical area. Wetland loss would also represent a loss of habitat for raccoon, muskrat, mink, opossum, and a variety of songbirds. Based on these concerns, we recommend that the project be modified to reduc least half. Thank you for the opportunity to comment on this project.

A review of your application received March 11, 1996, for Department of the Army authorization to place fill material in approximately 13,000 square feet of vegetated wetlands and construct an elevated walkway, floating docks, and a boat ramp, resulting in impacts to approximately 2,500 square feet of non -vegetated wetlands and water of Town Creek, west of US 17 at Winnabow, in Brunswick County, North Carolina, indicates it to be a candidate for Federal authorization under this general permit. Accordingly, the administrative processing of your application will be accomplished by the North Carolina Division of Coastal Management. Comments from Federal review agencies will be furnished to the State. If your application must be withdrawn from this general permit process for any reason, you will be informed regarding its further management. If there are no unresolved differences in State -Federal positions or policies, the final action taken on your application by the State will result in your receiving written notice from us that your application is consistent with the general permit and you may commence your activity. Only after receiving such confirmation should You begin work. On February 6, 1990, the DA and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) signed a memorandum of agreement (MOA) establishing procedures to determine the type and level of mitigation necessary to comply with the Clean Water Act Section 404(b)(1) Guidelines. This MOA provides for first, avoiding impacts to waters and wetlands through the selection of the least damaging, practical alternative; second, taking appropriate and practical steps to minimize impacts on waters and wetlands; and finally, compensating for any remaining unavoidable impacts to the extent appropriate and practical. To enable us to process your application in full compliance with this MOA, we request that you provide the following additional information: a. Permits for work within wetlands or other special aquatic sites are available only if the proposed work is the least environmentally damaging, practicable alternative. Please furnish information regarding any other alternatives, including upland alternatives, to the work for which you have applied and provide justification that your selected plan is the least damaging to water or wetland areas. Pd.W W 0 RN.YCW PWV b. It is necessary for you to have taken all appropriate and practical steps to reduce wetland losses. Please show all that you have done, especially regarding development and modification of plans and proposed construction techniques, to reduce adverse impacts. c. The MOA requires that appropriate and practical mitigation will be required for all unavoidable adverse impacts remaining after all appropriate and practical minimization has been employed. Please show your plan to mitigate for the projected, unavoidable loss of waters or wetlands or provide information as to the absence of any such appropriate and practical measures. This information is essential to our expeditious processing of your application and it should be forwarded to us by April 2, 1996. Also, a copy of this information must be sent to the North Carolina Division of Environmental Management to enable them to adequately evaluate your application for a Water Quality Certification pursuant to Section 401 of the Clean Water Act.

The North Carolina Administrative Code requires any project that must receive either a Sedimentation and Erosion Control Plan permit and/or a CAMA major permit to apply for and receive a Stormwater Management Permit by the Division of Environmental Management. Any construction on the subject site, prior to receipt of the required permit, will constitute a violation of 15A NCAC 2H.1000 and may result in appropriate enforcement action by this Office. Enclosed is a copy of the NCAC 2H.1000 regulations and a permit application. Either a Stormwater Permit Application Package including 2 sets of plans, completed application form, fee, and supporting documentation, or a written response regarding the status of this project and the expected submittal date must be received in this Office no later than June 16, 1996, or the subject project file will be closed and construction may experience a subsequent delay.

Parker, Jr. Major Permits Processing Coordinator State Of North Carolina Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources Division of Coastal Management Dear Mr. Parker: This letter is in response to your letter July I2 saying that you, need more information. I think perhaps what you are unclear on is the following. This is a pottery studio and art gallery together with a canoe rental. This project will benefit the community in many ways. The people who stop will be ex- posed to the beauty of nature and art on a North Carolina river ana swamp. We are trying to bring culture and an appreciation of nature to an area now overrun by hog farms and mobile homes.. The area we want to fill is not swampland. It is a trench excavated by the Highway Dept. to construct Hwy. 17. We are returning It to its natural condition - an island in the swamp, now traversed by a freeway. As far as the Stormwater Management permit goes, L have sent them the additional information requested. We are being required to fill in this amount of trench in order to satiate the Health Dept's wetland setbacks for a septic field. Also, please refer to your last correspond- ance enclosed wherein you approved this fill activity. I might also suggest that the Stormwater Management permit become part of the CAMA permitting process, rJJUL31 required with a CAMA permit. I was not made aware needed a stormwater permit until a year after I fir plied for my CAMA permit.Thank you for your time and consideration.

Processing of the application has been slowed due to agency objection to the wetland fill, some 13,000 sq. feet, and a finding that such fill, without mitigation, may be inconsistent with the local land use plan.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION The project site is located off Hwy 17 South on the northern side of Town Creek bridge near Winnabow in Brunswick County, NC. It is approximately 11 miles south of Wilmington. The site is a 3.12 acre lot previously used as a fish camp in the early 1900's as exemplified by the concrete remnants of pits which were used for cooking fish. The lot consists mostly of mesophytic forest type vegetation with an upland area of approximately 0.82 acres surrounded almost entirely by 2.30 acres of federal wetlands. The lot borders Town Creek on it's southern and western boundaries, Hwy 17 on it's eastern boundary and the property of D. Lewis on it's northern boundary. No coastal wetland vegetation was observed on the lot. The waters of Town Creek are inland waters classified as Class C swamp waters by the Division of Environmental Management. It is not a primary nursery area and there are no commercial shellfish resources. The width of the section of Town Creek adjacent to the lot ranges from 70 ft. to 150 ft. The applicant proposes to relocate an already purchased 14' X 40' building on the upland portion of the lot which will be used as a pottery studio and canoe and small boat rental pending septic approval. Two toilets are proposed for the relocated building. He then plans to attach a permeable, elevated deck to the waterward side of the structure. The attached deck will extend over federal wetlands. The applicant has also already purchased two floating docks (6' X 107' and 6' X 58') which he plans to place in Town Creek by anchoring to existing shoreline trees along the southern and western boundaries of the lot. The applicant then plans to bridge the floating docks to the upland with two 4' wide ramps. Twelve docking slips along the floating docks for small boats (20 ft. or less) and\or canoes are proposed with no intentions for fuel handling facilities nor overboard discharge of sewage. In an unvegetated area between the two floating docks the applicant proposes a 12 ft wide oyster shell boat ramp. Along the northwest boundary of the lot, the applicant proposes to construct a 5 ft wide elevated walkway to be used as a nature trail beginning on the upland portion of the lot and extending approximately 240 ft, running parallel to the creek over federal wetlands, ending in a 6' X 12' deck also over federal wetlands where Town Creek and Dead Creek intersect. The applicant proposes to avoid the destruction of all trees during and after the construction of the walkway and deck. All other wetlands on the lot are proposed to be left undisturbed except an eastern stretch between Hwy 17 and the upland area of the lot. The applicant proposes to fill this 13,050 sq.ft.(0.3 acre) area to an elevation equal to the upland area which he then plans to use for parking. The applicant contends that this stretch of wetlands are manmade, created by a depression resulting from construction of adjacent Hwy 17 by the Division of Highways. 10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS The floating docks will incorporate 990 sq. ft. of public trust waters. There should be little turbidity associated with the installation of the floating docks since they will be anchored to existing trees and will not involve the placement of pilings. Based on the width and depth of Town Creek adjacent to the project site, the floating docks would appear to present minimal navigational concerns. The relocated building will be located entirely on the upland and should have minimal impact on wetlands, but the attached deck mf.

Pier Length 200 or 280 ft ? Finger Pier Length 8 or 12 ft? Number of slips 1 or 30? b) There is no mention of boathouse, platform, walkway nor restaurant in narrative. 2) APPLICATION (DCM-MP-1) a) Need names and addresses of adjacent waterfront property owners and signed returned receipts as proof that such owners have received a copy of the application and plats by certified mail (In your case that would appear to be the Division of Highways and the neighbor upereek (north) of your property). b) The CAMA Land Use Plan classification (Question 4g) is Limited Transition and should be answered as such. 3) EXCAVATION AND FILL (DCM-MP-2) a) Answer to Question lc appears contradictory. b) Need more specific answers to question 2a and 2d. Since plat showing all development is not scaled, I can not determine if disposal site is large enough to accommodate 220 cu. yds, of spoil. c) Questions 2e and 2f need to be answered. d) More detailed answer of 5a. 4) UPLAND DEVELOPMENT (DCM-MP-3) a) Need documentation for question i and j. 5) STRUCTURES (DCM-MP-4) a) Answers to questions a(3) and a(5)ii are contradictory to what was stated in narrative. b) Answer to question a(7) is contradictory. c) Question a(8) needs to be answered. 6) MARINA DEVELOPMENT (DCM-MP-6) a) Questions 2f-2q need to be answered, if not applicable fill in N\A. b) DCM-MP-6 needs to be signed and dated. 7) PLATS a) Plats should be prepared according to the enclosed 710200. I would especially like a scaled drawing of plat with all proposed development (piers, docks, boat ramp, etc.) Stephen Thompson Page 3 of 3 CONI&EENTS: For your information, if a major permit is issued, it will be good for three years. You mentioned a restaurant to be built at a later date in your narrative and on some of the DCM forms. If you plan to apply for the restaurant construction on this application, I will need you to address it on all applicable forms and I will also need more information (dimensions, exact location, documentation for septic system approval, etc.). Also, your plan to provide 30 boat slips as indicated on form DCM-MP-6 may very likely result in your requirement to submit an environmental assessment to determine if the impact of the planned project will require the preparation of an environmental impact statement. Finally, if you will fill out the enclosed appropriate forms and provide the necessary additional information, I would be willing to set up an appointment with you in our field office to discuss and assist you with any questions you may have pertaining to the filling out of the applications.

As proposed the project will cause the filling of approximately 13,050 sq. ft.(0.3 acres) of federal wetlands. If allowed, the wetland area between Hwy 17 and Town Creek will be reduced which will result in a smaller area to filter sediments and runoff from the highway. More runoff may also result from the adjacent area being converted to parking area. It could not be clearly determined if the applicant's contention that the wetlands that he is proposing to fill are manmade was accurate. Regardless, the wetlands appeared to be functional and serving as a buffer to improve water quality. Submitted by: Jerry A. Parker Date: 2-29-96 Office: Wilmington i .
