BISER Secretary BRAXTON DAVIS Director Overbeck Marine Construction, acting as agent for Saltmeadow Way, LLC. c/o Heather Nicholson, has submitted a request to modify CAMA Major Permit No. 104-22, which was issued on October 3, 2022, and is scheduled to expire on October 3, 2027. The permittee is requesting approval to modify the existing single docking facility instead of constructing an additional docking facility as originally permitted due to Figure 8 HOA covenants. The existing docking facility is located off Banks Channel, near the waters of Middle Sound, in Wilmington, New Hanover County. The permittee is requesting authorization to add a new fixed landing on the north side of the existing pier, measuring approximately 6' wide x 8' long. A ramp that would lead to a new L- shaped floating dock system, measuring approximately 8' wide x 32' long and approximately 6' wide x 24' long (see Page 1 of 3). The permittee also requests to remove an existing floating dock, located at the end of the existing docking facility, and to relocate the 13' x 13' existing boat lift to the landward -most side of the proposed 6' x 24' floating dock, which is oriented parallel to the shoreline. The existing pier and 16' wide x 20' long fixed platform would remain the same. The total slip count for the proposed modification to the existing docking facility would be a total of 4 slips, the same as what was originally permitted by State Permit No. 104- 22. The proposed changes would result in a decrease in total platform area by approximately 36 ft2, for a total of 768 ft2 of platform area, which appears to be within the 8 ft2 per linear foot of shoreline rule allowance. Based on the information provided, regarding the minor modification request (plans and documents), there does not appear to be any impacts to any wetlands, and the size/footprint of State of North Carolina I Environmental Quality I Coastal Management 127 Cardinal Drive Ext., Wilmington, NC 28405 919 796 7215 Saltmeadow Way, LLC. c/o Heather Nicholson Minor permit modification — No.104.22 Page Two January 27, 2023 the development plan would remain consistent with DCM's Rules concerning the Estuarine Shoreline and Public Trust AECs.

Wilmington, NC 25905 Find a Field Rep (armis.com) January 15, 2023 Division of Coastal Management (DCM) 127 Cardinal Drive Extension Wilmington, NC 28405 Re: Application for Minor Modification 32 Saltmeadow Rd Wilmington, NC 28411 On behalf of Saltmeadow Way, LLC % Heather Nicholson, we are applying for a CAMA Minor Modification for the permitted docking facility at 32 Saltmeadow Road. Currently on the property there is an existing 6'x70' fixed pier, 16'x20' platform, 8'x20' floating dock, and 13'xl3' boat lift which are positioned on Banks Channel. Due to the increased boat traffic in the area it is difficult to load and unload from the existing boat lift. We originally proposed an additional docking facility on the basin side of the property. However, Figure 8 HOA does not allow two dock accesses on one property causing us to reconfigure the current facility. We are proposing to remove the existing floater and boat lift and reconfigure the dock facility according to the attached drawing. This includes adding an additional 13'x13' boat lift on the new floating dock which would total 4 slips. Please see the attached drawings for clarification. All proposed work is consistent with current DCM regulations and is within the riparian corridor and will be constructed according to all current local and state building codes. The project proponent hereby certifies that all information contained herein is true, accurate, and complete to the best of my knowledge and belief. The project proponent hereby requests that the certifying authority review and take action on this CWA certification request within the applicable reasonable period of time. Please let us know if you need any further information or clarification for the proposed project. Thank you for your assistance in review of this application.
