Box 3069 Bald Head Island, NC 28461 Dear Mr. Marek: This letter is in response to your written request, acting as authorized agent for Bald Head Island Limited, LLC, in which authorization was requested to modify CAMA Major Permit Number 91-96 under the Coastal Area Management Act (LAMA). Authorization was requested to construct an 8-foot by 20-foot V-shaped sign to be located in the waters of the Cape Fear River north of the Deep Point Marina entrance channel. This minor modification request was received by the Division of Coastal Management's Wilmington regional office on July 9, 2008. Based on the state's review, the Division of Coastal Management has made the following findings: 1) The proposed sign would be located in both Estuarine Waters and Public Trust Areas of Environmental Concern. 2) The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers had no objection to the proposed project. 3) Signs of this nature are considered non -water dependent structures. Furthermore, the Division of Coastal Management believes that a feasible high ground alternative location for this sign exists. 4) Based upon the above referenced findings, the Division has determined that the proposed project is inconsistent with the following rules of the Coastal Resources Commission: a) 15A NCAC 07H.0208(a)(1), which states "Uses which are not water dependent shall not be permitted in coastal wetlands, estuarine waters, and public trust areas.'; and b) 15A NCAC 07H.0208(a)(2)(b), which states "Before receiving approval for location of a use or development within these AECs, the permit -letting authority shall find that no suitable alternative site or location outside of the AEC exists for the use or development.

This denial is made pursuant to N.C.G.S. 113A-120(a)(8) which requires denial for projects inconsistent with the state guidelines for Areas of Environmental Concern or local land use plans. If you wish to appeal this denial, you are entitled to a hearing. The hearing will involve appearing before an Administrative Law Judge who listens to evidence and arguments of both parties and then makes a recommendation to the Coastal Resources Commission. Your request for a hearing must be in the form of a written petition, complying with the requirements of § 150B of the General Statutes of North Carolina, and must be filed with the Office of Administrative Hearings, 6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-6714, within twenty (20) days from the date of this letter. A copy of the petition should be filed with this office. Also, you are advised that as long as this state permit denial stands, your project must be deemed inconsistent with the N.C. Coastal Management Program, thereby precluding the issuance of federal permits for this project. The Federal Coastal Zone Management Act (CZMA) gives you the right to appeal this finding to the U.S. Secretary of Commerce within thirty days of receipt of this letter. Your appeal must be on the grounds that the proposed activity is (1) consistent with the objectives or purposes of the.CZMA, or (2) is necessary in the interest of national security, and thus, may be federally approved. Members of my staff are available to assist you should you desire to modify your proposal in the future. If you have any questions concerning this matter, please contact Doug Huggett at (252) 808- 2808, extension 212. Sincerely, C la e H.

State Permit No. 91-96 was issued to Bald Head Island, Ltd, on June 3, 1996 for the excavation of an access channel and boat basin, marina facility with barge and ferry landings, a marine maintenance building, office and storage buildings, and parking. A minor modification was issued on August 19, 1999 for the addition of riprap and the permit was renewed on December 8, 1999. The permit was again modified on May 22, 2000 for the expansion of the marina basin and then renewed on February 14, 2002 and February 23, 2004. On July 16, 2004, it was modified for the addition of additional parking spaces. An amendment was issued on April27, 2006 to authorize a name change to Bald Head Island Limited and amended again on September 18, 2006 to change the permit holder's name to Bald Head Island Limited, LLC. The permit was last renewed on December 13, 2007 and will expire on December 31, 2009. Mr. Marek is requesting that the permit be modified to include a marina sign located within the Estuarine Waters and Public Trust Areas of Environmental Concern (AEC's). As proposed, the sign would be located approximately 180' northeast of the northern jetty. The applicant has submitted a check (ck. N 1323) in the amount of $100.00 for the modification request. I believe the proposed development is inconsistent with the use standard set forth in NCAC 07H.0208(a)(1), which states "uses which are not water dependent shall not be permitted within coastal wetlands, estuarine waters, and public trust areas". Furthermore, NCAC 07H .0208(a)(2)(13) states that "before receiving approval for location of a use or development within these AEC's, permit - letting authority shall find that no suitable alternative site or location outside of the AEC exists for the Ilse or development...". As it appears the sign could feasibly be located on high ground, denial of the modification request is recommended. Please submit any comments or concerns regarding the proposed development to Doug Haggett in writing by September 15, 2008, Enclosures cc: Wilmington Files Ted Tyndall, DCtvl Dave Timpy, USACE Wayne Strickland, LPO 127 Cardinal Drive Extension, Wilmington, N.C. 28405-3845 • Telephone 910-796.7215 • Fax 910-395-3964 An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer Bruce Marek, P.E.

This minor modification request is specifically for an in the water marina entrance sign. As shown on our detail, we are proposing an approximate 8'x20' 2-sided Vee-shaped in -the —water sign north of the Deep Point Marina north jetty, to the west of a line between the north jetty end and the A.D.M. Pier end. This is outside of any navigation channel or route. I have given much consideration td this sign location, and based on the A.D.M. Pier location, a land based sign does not adequately project the marina message to vessels travelling southward down the Cape Fear River. Placing the sign on one of the Deep Point Jetties would obscure the navigational lights on the jetty. Tucked behind the line between pier end and jetty end will not impact larger vessels or non -local vessels navigation lines. It actually can be a good warning "sign" if someone inadvertently gets tucked in between the shore and the jetty end. Ideally, this marina entrance sign would be incorporated into our simultaneous DPM3 Marina Necessities/Amenities Request. We have separated it out per your recommendation as this separate DPM5 submission, with the understanding that you will be denying this request and requiring us to seek a variance from the CRC. Allowing boaters to be aware of this new facility and planned fuel docks, pump out and restaurant should be welcome. There are studies that indicate a key to a successful marina is making sure that the boating public knows what your services include. We are just trying to have a world class marina in Southport, NC. Hopefully we can have staff recommendation that will allow us to successfully pursue obtaining a variance for what I consider a "marina necessity". I have previously submitted BHI Planning Department check # 1323 for$100 for this "Minor Modification" request to CAMA Permit # 91-96. We would like to be scheduled for the variance as soon as possible, and want to mention that we would also like for DPM4 (Dock Landings) and DPM 6 (Fire/Safety Access Road) also being submitted today to be scheduled for the same date.

The permit was last renewed on December 13, 2007 and will expire on December 31, 2009. Mr. Marek is requesting that the permit be modified to include five wooden platforms, measuring 20' in length by 28' in width, leading to A-, B-, C- and D-Docks, with a fifth platform located between, and leading to, E- & F-Docks. These platforms each have an area of 560 square feet and are all located within the 30' buffer. The applicant has submitted a check (ck. k 1322) in the amount of $100.00 for the modification request. This Office does not believe the proposed development is consistent with the use standards set forth in NCAC 07H.0209(d)(10), which states that within the coastal shorelines category, all development shall be located 30' landward of normal high water with the exception of "decks/observation decks limited to slatted, wooden, elevated and unroofed decks that shall not singularly or collectively exceed 200 square feet". Furthermore, this Office believes that trash receptacles, bike racks and dock carts can be feasibly located outside of the 30' buffer or at existing grade without a threat to safety.

This minor modification request is specifically for appropriate sized dock landings at the top of the ramps to A, B, C, D & E/F docks. As shown on our detail, to have adequate space on these water dependent structures for raccoon proof trash enclosures, bicycle racks, dock cart storage as well as wheel chair turning radius not in the alignment of the 6' wood walkway, the necessary wood decked landing size is 20'x28' each. We sincerely believe that the CAMA regulation of 200 sf total of pervious wood dock landings is not appropriate for a 100 slip recreational/commercial marina project. Ideally, these 5 larger dock landings would be incorporated into our simultaneous DPM3 Marina Necessities/Amenities Request. We have separated them out per your recommendation as this separate DPM4 submission, with the understanding that you will be denying this request and requiring us to seek a variance from the CRC. Since the state is looking for more water access for the people of the State of North Carolina, I hope that these appropriately sized marina dock landings will be looked on favorably. Building a new marina is difficult and expensive. This project has had a CAMA permit for 12 years, and we have yet to open up the recreational side of the marina. It would be a shame if all of the planning and development time has actually harmed us in trying to develop a world class marina in Southport, NC. An individual homeowner's permissible dock landing at 200 sf doesn't come close to having the space needs of recreational marina docks serving the boat owners, guests and trash of upwards of 20 boats per landing. Bald Head Island Limited, LLC has always done a tasteful and environmentally sensible job at its 2 other marinas (Bald Head Island and Indigo Plantation Marina).

This minor modification request is specifically for the 8' wide Fire Department/Emergency Vehicles access road along the south and east perimeters of the Deep Point Marina. Also included is one copy of Stormwater Drawing SW8-071004 Deep Point Marina Basin Low Density, seal dated 10-3-07, with DWQ approval date 10-16-07. As shown on our detail, we are proposing an 8'wide safety/harbormaster access road to the north end of F-Dock. In our stormwater permit, we have 7100 sf of "streets" approved for this purpose. The north end of F-Dock is approximately 850 If from the already CAMA approved turnaround at the restaurant entrance. It is also approximately a quarter of a mile to the Harbormaster Office. Hopefully it will never need to be used for its intended purpose as a Fire/EMT Access Road, but 850 feet is a long way to lug hoses or a stretcher. I have seen the disasterous effects of boat fires, and I have had a couple of heart attacks myself. As a professional engineer, I do like to adhere to my duty to protect the health and safety of the people of the State of North Carolina. More and more so, we are required to follow the NFPA regulations relating to Marina Design. Ideally, this access road would be incorporated into our simultaneous DPM3 Marina Necessities/Amenities Request. We have separated it out per your recommendation as this separate DPM6 submission, with the understanding that you will be denying this request and requiring us to seek a variance from the CRC. Hopefully we can have staff recommendation that will allow us to successfully pursue obtaining a variance for what I consider a "marina necessity". As we have discussed many times in the past year since my first DMP3 Marina Necessities submission, the original CAMA permits for this marina date back to 1996. Rules at that time would not have precluded this road within 30' of the marina bulkhead. Additionally, the marina basin was sited specifically with guidance from CAMA as to its final location to the wetland(s). We are constrained with a wetland as close as 25' to the bulkhead along F-dock, so feel that we should be allowed to implement our "road for safety" as shown. I am including a check for $100 for this "Minor Modification" request to CAMA Permit # 91-96. We would like to be scheduled for the variance as soon as possible, and want to mention that we would also like for DPM4 (Dock Landings) and DPM 5 (Marina Entrance Sign) also being submitted today to be scheduled for the same date.

Any material used on the sides shall not obstruct view and must be permeable to air and water. Screen or wire on the sides along with benches and knee walls are permitted. Lattice is specifically excluded from being used under this authorization. 2. The roof of the covered platform/gazebo shall not be designed for second story use. 3. 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. 4. The authorized structure and associated activity must not cause an unacceptable interference with navigation. 5. The permittee will maintain the authorized work in good condition and in conformance with the terms and conditions of this permit. The permittee is not relieved of this requirement if he abandons the permitted activity without having it transferred to a third party. NOTE: The permittee is advised that any development or land disturbing activity that is considered non -water dependent is not authorized within 30 feet of the normal high water level unless specifically exempted by Coastal Resource Commission (CRC) regulations in place at the time of such development. NOTE: This permit does not eliminate the need to obtain any additional state, federal or local permits, approvals or authorizations that may be required.

I believe that 1 have finally removed all marina necessity items that you felt would delay us obtaining this minor modification. We are already working on a variance request for some of those items I have previously submitted a 24" x 36" copy of approved Low Density Deep Point Marina Area Stormwater Permit #SW8-071004 for your reference. It includes all of the over land impervious items that I am asking for, as well as an additional 752 sf of "miscellaneous other" in case final transformer pads, electrical kiosks, storage shed entry pads, etc. needs to be slightly larger than our first estimates. Also, at this time we are only asking for CAMA permission for one of our two Stormwater permitted 526 sq ft impervious gazebo/pergolas (N). I had one in the 30' buffer for Stormwater, which I have eliminated per your comments. My 2/25/2000 and 7/9/07 Deep Point Marina and Slip layout drawings were approved only for slip layout, and did not include all of the marina necessary items that ended up as multiple Letters of Refinement and Minor Modifications at Bald Head Island Marina (CAMA#172-87) and Indigo Plantation Marina (CAMA #41-85). The intent of this minor modification is to get one approval for the numerous items around the recreational part of the marina in one minor modification. On drawing DPM3, buildings and the 6' wide wood boardwalk around the marina perimeter that are already CAMA permitted based on the original permit and other minor modifications are so indicated. The benefit of being involved in the design/engineering of 3 marinas for the some client, Bald Head Island Limited, LLC, means that by this third marina we have a pretty good idea of all of the water dependent necessities and amenities that need to be built at a marina. Below is a list of items. Designations start with Letter A. On the drawings) requested items are in red. A. Slip width change to slip F20 for use as a catamaran slip (50' x 36' width): this involved a slight shift and reconfiguration of slips F12 thru F20, without any increase in number of slips. Revised layout is shown in red in the marina basin; existing permitted layout is shown in a black & white detail mid -left on the drawing. B. Harbormaster Storage Sheds (4): 144 sq tt roof area each (100 sf building footprint) accessory structures. All are now outside of the 30' buffer, but within the 75'AEC. Bi is between the harbormaster office and the fuel dock (A -Dock). B2 & B3 are near the gazebo/pergola N, and B4R�1R: sr "crofters" Q1 &Q2. An impervious entry pad of 40 sq ft is associated with each of these sheds. M 6: D OCT 0 2 ZOOS r AWAA Donn,;r 401_04%4o.:.XT...oA,r;.,... 11A..A:A..,d:.... V---od Do.,Q 1n_1_nQ 1 DCM WILMINGTON, ,Nc C. Wood Dock Landings (5): Within the marina buffer, at the top of each of 5 ramps at A, B, C, D & E/F. To be built at 40 sf each (in 2 pieces), connected to the 6' wide previously permitted wood boardwalk. This totals the allowable per marina 200 sf of landing CAMA Limit. Note that this amount of landing does not allow sufficient area for trash cans, dock cart storage, bike racks, etc. D. Ramps from landings to the Floating Docks (8). 4'-6" wide x 26'+/- Aluminum Ramps. Six are shown at the recreational part of the marina and designated D-1 thru D-6, and two are shown at the ferry maintenance dock. I always assumed ramps as part of permitted slip layout drawings(s), but I have not found ramps specifically mentioned in our permits. Please include in this minor mod if necessary. E. Electrical Transformers/Junction Enclosures/pads (5) shown: Electrical engineer/power company will decide final locations based on wiring path(s) available. Assumption is to have a transformer or junction enclosure within 25' to 50' of the electrical panels. Along with transformers is the underground electrical wiring necessary to power the transformers, and all service wiring. Stormwater permit is for 64 sf of transformer pads. Pads will be based on electric company enclosure sizes, estimated at 6 sf for small enclosures and 12 sf +/- for larger enclosures F. Electrical Kiosks (8): for the electrical power panels, these marina dependent panel backboards are shown within the 30' marina buffer with approx 48 sf roof area each. The stormwater permit includes 385 sf of electrical panel roofs. We do not know yet if A -Dock will require 1 or 2 panel boards. Note that the electrical panels need to be accessed to reset circuit breakers. The roofs are a life safety feature to protect the workers from rain. G. Marina Holding Tank Pump Out Shore Side Tank: This is a pump station for the A -Dock (fuel dock) holding tank pump out. There is already an additional pump out permitted for the ferries in the marine maintenance area. H. Pump Out Station: This is the dock component on A -Dock to shore side tank/pump G I. Fish Cleaning Station (1): Aluminum or stainless steel, cantilevered from wood boardwalk, between A -Dock & B-Dock along walkway. J. Dockmaster/Fuel/Ice Sales Screened Gazebo: (1) At A-Dock/Fuel Dock end in slip A6. Approx 12' x 20' footprint/screened area (no fixed walls). 14' x 22' with roof overhangs. Having attendant location near the pumps for busy summer season is desirable from a safety & turnaround standpoint. K. Fuel dispensers and hose reels indicated on the fuel dock (A -Dock). There will also be an isolation/ transfer box near the top and the bottom of the A -dock ramp, in order to shut-off fuel to the dock in storm conditions. Fuel piping will be double wall piping per UST regulations. Fuel lines and valves will run underground through both the Marina buffer and the 75' marina AEC. Note: Fuel tank location for the 12,000 gal diesel tank and the 8000 gallon gasoline tank and the vent piping are outside of the AEC, in the turnaround south of the harbormaster office, and are already in our CAMA Permit. L. Wood Handicap Ramp (Labeled in Red, drawn in black): Ll is from between the B Dock & C Dock Landings up to the Harbor Master Office/the marina parking turnaround. This wood handicap compliant ramp has the required ADA landings every 30' and is shown at a 1 VA 2H slope. Due to FEMA Flood Zone Regulations, the Harbormaster Office (Finished Floor Elevation 13.0) is raised on a plateau above the marina bulkhead cap (Elevation 6.1'+/-). The handicap ramp is required for the vertical rise due to the 4' retaining wall in front of the Harbor Master Office and Retail Space. M. Over -The -Water 16'xl6' Roofed Gazebo/8'xl7' Wood Platform/Landing. The end of F- Dock is over a quarter of a mile from the Harbormaster office. This roofed, open air structure will have bench seats which will provide for respite from rain or sun, with alignment as shown. RECEIVED DCM WILMINGTON, NC CAMA Permit #91-96 Marina Necessities/Amenities Minor Modification Request UM § 202M 2 N. Gazebo/Pergola similar to the pictured gazebo/pergola at Bald Head Island Marina. N is outside of the Marina Buffer but inside of the 75' Marina AEC. It has 526 sq it of roof (22'x24'+/-). Deck size is 24'x42'. A pervious "pergola" area covers the unroofed portion. Stormwater permit is for two such structures at 526 sf of impervious each = 1052 sf, but we have reduced our CAMA request to just one at this time. O. Pool & Pool Deck outside of the 30' Marina Buffer, but within the 75'AEC. 1500 sf impervious is in Stormwater Permit SW8-071004 for the Pool Deck not under the roof line, with the pool size being approximately 34' x 48' (pools are considered pervious surfaces). Note that we have included a rendered detail of the Harbor Master Building showing pool and deck. There is an architectural pool "overflow" area along the east side of the pool, which is sited outside of the 30' marina buffer. P. Impervious Surfaces/Parking PI-P3: Speckled red areas on the drawing. 7500 sf is Stormwater Permitted as "parking". It is all shown outside of the 30' marina buffer, with the majority within the 75' AEC. Part of P2 is outside of 75'. P3 is a 20'x20' impervious pad between crofters Q1 & Q2, with some of the area underneath the crofter decks. Q. Crofters (2): These are outside of the 30' Marina buffer, but within the 75' Marina AEC. Ql has a stormwater permitted 510 sf roofed area and A2 has 600 sf roofed area. These 2-3 story crofters are Bald Head Island style small buildings with living or office space above a break -away walled garage. Shown with 8' wide decks around perimeters of buildings (assumed 2' roof overhangs, thus decking shown as 6' outside of roof edges. Architectural styling is not complete, so roof shapes may change.. R. Wetland Boundary Fence/Bench/Knee wall. Please note that there is a 404 wetland indicated the east of the E &F-dock bulkheads. This constrains our useful area along this side. In order to protect the wetland area, we have provided on the drawing a detail showing a sloppy vee/6x6 post knee wall, with 3" X10" horizontal cap, all with ground contact treated lumber. We have now limited this "knee wall" to the areas outside of the 30' marina buffer. In addition to the above Rsted Items, the following three items which are so closely related to the water dependent needs of the marina but don't seem to be listed in other CAMA permits are the following utilities. I include them if you feel the need to specifically list them in this minor modification. 1. Telephone, Cable TV & DSL service lines & junction boxes, underground sewer & fuel lines.. Location of lines: inside of the 30' marina buffer, with appropriate utility separations and depths. 2. Installation of a water/fire main(s), service laterals and hydrants and/or fire standpipes. North Carolina building code has adopted several of the NFPA Fire Codes, with which we need to comply as appropriate to provide adequate levels of fire/life safety. Included in water service lines are landscape irrigation lines (with valve boxes), and any required back -flow preventers. 3. Site Lighting: for the boardwalks, dock landings, etc. I have previously submitted a Bald Head Island Planning Department check for $100 for "Minor Modification" to CAMA Permit # 91-96 for Marina Necessities/Accessories. If you have any questions and/or comments, please call me at 910-457-7517, 799-9245 or 228-2484.

Box 3069 Bald Head Island, NC 28461 Dear Mr. Marek: This letter is in response to your two written requests, acting as authorized agent for Bald Head Island Limited, LLC, in which authorization is requested to modify CAMA Major Permit Number 91-96, issued June 3, 1996 under the Coastal Area Management Act (LAMA) and State Dredge and Fill Law. The two requests were seeking authorization to construct an 8-foot wide paved access road located 6 feet landward of the wooden walkway at Deep Point Marina, a 28-foot x 28-foot paved turn -around at the northeastern end of the proposed paved access road, and secondly, five wood landings (platforms) at the . dock entrances measuring 20 feet by 28 feet. Both requests were received by the Division of Coastal Management July 9, 2008. Based on the state's review, the Division of Coastal Management has made the following findings: 1) The proposed paved 8-foot wide access road and the 28 ft. x 28 ft. paved turn -around area would be located entirely within 30 feet of the normal high water line. 2) The five proposed 20 ft. x 28 ft. wooden landings (platforms), totaling an area of 2,800 square feet, would be located entirely within 30 feet of the normal high water line and exceed the total allowable platform area of 200 square feet set forth in NCAC 07H.0209(d)(10). 3) Based upon the above referenced findings, the Division has determined that the proposed project (although requested via two letters dated July 8, 2008) is inconsistent with the following rules of the Coastal Resources Commission: a) 15A NCAC 07H.0209(d)(10), which states "Within the Coastal Shorelines category (estuarine and public trust shoreline AECs), new development shall be located a distance of 30 feet landward of the normal water level or normal high water level, with the exception of the following: (A) Water -dependent uses as described in Rule 07H.0208(a)(1) of the Section;" 15A NCAC 0711.0208 specifically lists private roads and parking areas as uses that are not water dependent. 400 Commerce Avenue, Morehead City, North Carolina 28557 Phone: 252-808-2808 \ FAX: 252-247-3330 \ Internet: www.nccoastaimanag'ement.net An Equal Opportunity \ Affirmative Action Employer — 50% Recycled \ 10% Post Consumer Paper Bald Head Island Limited, LLC August 28, 2008 Page 2 b) 15A NCAC 07H.0209(d)(10), which states "TiVithin the Coastal Shorelines category (estuarine and public trust shoreline AECs), new development shall be located a distance of 30 feet landward of the normal water level or normal high water level, with the exception of the following: (F) Decks/Observation Decks limited to slatted, wooden, elevated and unroofed decks that shall not singularly of collectively exceed 200 square feet." The total combined area for the five proposed decks totals 2,800 square feet, exceeding the allowable 200 square feet. Given the preceding findings, it is necessary that your request for a modification of a CAMA Major Permit under the Coastal Area Management Act and State Dredge and Fill Law be denied. This denial is made pursuant to N.C.G.S. 113A-120(a)(8) which requires denial for projects inconsistent with the state guidelines for Areas of Environmental Concern or local land use plans. If you wish to appeal this denial, you are entitled to a hearing. The hearing will involve appearing before an Administrative Law Judge who listens to evidence and arguments of both parties and then makes a recommendation to the Coastal Resources Commission. Your request for a hearing must be in the form of a written petition, complying with the requirements of § 150B of the General Statutes of North Carolina, and must be filed with the Office of Administrative Hearings, 6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-6714, within twenty (20) days from the date of this letter. A copy of this petition should be filed with this office. Also, you are advised that as long as this state permit denial stands, your project must be deemed inconsistent with the N.C. Coastal Management Program, thereby precluding the issuance of federal permits for this project. The Federal Coastal Zone Management Act (CZMA) gives you the right to appeal this finding to the U.S. Secretary of Commerce within thirty days of receipt of this letter. Your - appeal must be on the grounds that the proposed activity is (1) consistent with the objectives or purposes of the CZMA, or (2) is necessary in the interest of national security, and thus, may be federally approved. Members of my staff are available to assist you should you desire to modify your proposal in the future.

State Permit No. 91-96 was issued to Bald Head Island, Ltd. on June 3, 1996 for the excavation of an access channel and boat basin, marina facility with barge and ferry landings, a marine maintenance building, office and storage buildings, and parking. A minor modification was issued on August 19, 1999 for the addition of riprap and the permit was renewed on December 8, 1999. The permit was again modified on May 22, 2000 for the expansion of the marina basin and then renewed on February 14, 2002 and February 23, 2004. On July 16, 2004, it was modified for the addition of additional parking spaces. An amendment was issued on April 27, 2006 to authorize a name change to Bald Head Island Limited and amended again on September 18, 2006 to change the permit holder's name to Bald Head Island Limited, LLC. 'Me permit was last renewed on December 13, 2007 and will expire on December 31, 2009. Mr. Marek is requesting that the permit be modified to include an 8' wide access road, aligned parallel to D- E- & F-Docks, landward of the 6' wide wooden walkway at Deep Point Marina, which is entirely within the Estuarine Shoreline 30' buffer. A 28' in length by 28' in width turn -around platform is proposed at the end of road. Mr. Marek cites safety concerns due to a lack of emergency access along F-dock as the basis of his request. The road alignment along F-Dock is limited by the presence of §404 wetlands and could not be relocated outside of the buffer without impacting these wetlands, as shown on the plans. The applicant has submitted a check (ck. # 5213) in the amount of $100.00 for the modification request. I believe the proposed development is inconsistent with the use standard set forth in NCAC 07H.0209(d)(10), which states "within the Coastal Shoreline category (estuarine and public trust shoreline AECs), new development shall be located a distance of 30 feet landward of the normal water level or normal high water level...". As the development does not qualify as any of the exceptions to this buffer rule, denial of the modification request is recommended.

This minor modification request is specifically for the 8' wide Fire Department/Emergency Vehicles access road along the south and east perimeters of the Deep Point Marina. Also included is one copy of Stormwater Drawing SW8-071004 Deep Point Marina Basin Low Density, seal dated 10-3-07, with DWQ approval date 10-16-07. As shown on our detail, we are proposing an 8'wide safety/harbormaster access road to the north end of F-Dock. In our stormwater permit, we have 7100 sf of "streets" approved for this purpose. The north end of F-Dock is approximately 850 If from the already CAMA approved tumoround at the restaurant entrance. It is also approximately a quarter of a mile to the Harbormaster Office. Hopefully it will never need to be used for its intended purpose as a Fire/EMT Access Road, but 850 feet is a long way to lug hoses or a stretcher. I have seen the disasterous effects of boat fires, and I have had a couple of heart attacks myself. As a professional engineer, I do like to adhere to my duty to protect the health and safety of the people of the State of North Carolina. More and more so, we are required to follow the NFPA regulations relating to Marina Design. Ideally, this access road would be incorporated into our simultaneous DPM3 Marina Necessities/Amenities Request. We have separated it out per your recommendation as this separate DPM6 submission, with the understanding that you will be denying this request and requiring us to seek a variance from the CRC. Hopefully we can have staff recommendation that will allow us to successfully pursue obtaining a variance for what I consider a "marina necessity". As we have discussed many times in the past year since my first DMP3 Marina Necessities submission, the original CAMA permits for this marina date back to 1996. Rules at that time would not have precluded this road within 30' of the marina bulkhead. Additionally, the marina basin was sited specifically with guidance from CAMA as to its final location to the wetland(s). We are constrained with a wetland as close as 25' to the bulkhead along F-dock, so feel that we should be allowed to implement our "road for safety" as shown. I am including a check for $100 for this "Minor Modification" request to CAMA Permit # 91-96. We would like to be scheduled for the variance as soon as possible, and want to mention that we would also like for DPM4 (Dock Landings) and DPM 5 (Marina Entrance Sign) also being submitted today to be scheduled for the some date. Thanking you in advgpperfgr j, ttention to this matter. Respectfully, Bruce Marek, P.E. For Bald Head Island Limited, LLC Planning Dept. cc: Jim Henry, Director, BHI Planning & Development M.

Box 3069 Bald Head Island, NC 28461 Dear Mr. Marek: This letter is in response to your two written requests, acting as authorized agent for Bald Head Island Limited, LLC, in which authorization is requested to modify CAMA Major Permit Number 91-96, issued June 3, 1996 under the Coastal Area Management Act (LAMA) and State Dredge and Fill Law. The two requests were seeking authorization to construct an 8-foot wide paved access road located 6 feet landward of the wooden walkway at Deep Point Marina, a 28-foot x 28-foot paved turn -around at the northeastern end of the proposed paved access road, and secondly, five wood landings (platforms) at the dock entrances measuring 20 feet by 28 feet. Both requests were received by the Division of Coastal Management July 9, 2008. Based on the state's review, the Division of Coastal Management has made the following findings: 1) The proposed paved 8-foot wide access road and the 28 ft. x 28 ft. paved turn -around area would be located entirely within 30 fea of the normal high water line, 2) The five proposed 20 ft. x 28 ft. wooden landings (platforms), totaling an area of 2,800 square feet, would be located entirely within 30 feet of the normal high water line and exceed the total allowable platform area of 200 square feet set forth in NCAC 07H.0209(d)(10). 3) Based upon the above referenced findings, the Division has determined that the proposed project (although requested via two letters dated July 8, 2008) is inconsistent with the following rules of the Coastal Resources Commission: a) 15A NCAC 07H.0209(d)(10), which states "Within the Coastal Shorelines category (estuarine and public trust shoreline AECs), new development shall be located a distance of 30 feet landward of the normal water level or normal high water level, with the exception of the following: (A) Water -dependent uses as described in Rule 07H.0208(a)(1) of the Section;" 15A NCAC 0711.0208 specifically lists private roads and parking areas as uses that are not water dependent. 400 Commerce Avenue, Morehead City, North Carolina 28557 Phone: 252-808-2808 \ FAX: 252-247-3330 \ Internet: www.nccoastalmanagement.net An Equal Opportunity\ Affirmative Action Employer- 50% Recycled \ 10% Post Consumer Paper Bald Head Island Limited, LLC August 28, 2008 Page 2 b) 15A NCAC 07H.0209(d)(10), which states "Within the Coastal Shorelines category (estuarine and public trust shoreline AECs), new development shalt be located a distance of 30 feet landward of the normal water level or normal high water level, with the exception of the following: (F) Decks/Observation Decks limited to slatted, wooden, elevated and unroofed decks that shall not singularly of collectively exceed 200 square feet.

Box 3069 Bald Head Island, NC 28461 910-457-7517 July 8, 2008 Ms. Heather Coats NCDENR Division of Coastal Management 127 Cardinal Drive Extension Wilmington, NC 28405 Re: CAMA Permit #91-96 Minor Modification Request: Deep Point Marina, Southport, NC Drawing DPM5 7-8-08 Marina Entrance Sign Dear Ms. Coats: Included are five 24" x 36" revised copies of drawing DPM5 dated & sealed 7-8-08, for the Bald Head Island Limited, LLC owned Deep Point Marina. This minor modification request is specifically for an in the water marina entrance sign. As shown on our detail, we are proposing an approximate 8'x20''2-5ided Vee-shaped in -the -water sign north of the Deep Point Marina north jetty, to the west of a line between the north jetty end and the A.D.M. Pier end. This is outside of any navigation channel or route. I have given much consideration tc this sign location, and based on the A.D.M. Pier location, a land based sign does not adequately project the marina message to vessels travelling southward down the Cape Fear River. Placing the sign on one of the Deep Point Jetties would obscure the navigational lights on the jetty. Tucked behind the line between pier end and jetty end will not impact larger vessels or non -local vessels navigation lines. It actually can be a good warning "sign" if someone inadvertently gets tucked in between the shore and the jetty end. Ideally, this marina entrance sign would be incorporated into our simultaneous DPM3 Marina Necessities/Amenities Request. We have separated it out per your recommendation as this separate DPM5 submission, with the understanding that you will be denying.this request and requiring us to seek a variance from the CRC. Allowing boaters to be aware of this new facility and planned fuel docks, pump out and restaurant should be welcome. There are studies that indicate a key to a successful marina is making sure that the boating public knows what your services include. We are just trying to have a world class marina in Southport, NC. Hopefully we can have staff recommendation that will allow us to successfully pursue obtaining a variance for what I consider a "marina necessity". I have previously submitted BHI Planning Department check #1323 for $100 for this "Minor Modification" request to CAMA Permit # 91-96. We would like to be scheduled for the variance as soon as possible, and want to mention that we would also like for DPM4 (Dock Landings) and DPM 6 (Fire/Safety Access Road) also being submitted today to be scheduled for the some date. Thanking you in advance for attention to this matter. Respectfully, Bruce Marek, P:E. For Bald Head Island Limited, LLC Planning Dept. cc: Jim Henry, Director, BHI Planning & Development M.
