PROJECT SUMMARY: Applicant proposes to renovate the boat launching facility at Shell Rock Landing. The renovation will include the addition of a launch ramp, the installation of a walkway and temporary mooring dock, and the dredging of the basin to match channel depth. Field Investigation Report: NCWRC Page 02 --------------------------- 9. Narrative Description: The project is located at the Shell Rock Landing public boating access area located at the terminus of SR 1503 (Shell Rock Landing Rd.)near Hubert in Onslow County. The project is bordered to the south by the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway(AIWW)in the vicinity of Bear Island. West of the project is the Red Barn restaurant. The Shell Rock Landing public boating access is 2.24 acres in area and averages 7' above normal low water. Currently on the site there is a gravel parking lot,a launching ramp,an 80' floating dock,and a rip rap slope. The ramp extends into a basin with a channel leading to the AIWW. The basin is approximately 130' wide in theqmstruction area and is surrounded partially with a fringe of Smooth Cordgrass(S artina a en' ora). The substrate of the basin is organic silty muck. No SAV's were noted. Other po ions of the basin go directly to high ground. High ground vegetation consists of various upland grasses and Wax Myrtle(M3dca cerifera . The major high ground soil type sandy loam. Approximately 20' of the shoreline is stabilized with rip rap. Little erosion was noticed on other parts of the shore. The maintained channel connecting the basin to the AIWW averages-4' deep. Extending into the basin are various docking structures from the neighboring RV park. In the project area, the NC Division of Water Quality classifies the waters of the AIWW as SA-Outstanding Resource Waters (ORW). The area is not designated as a Primary Nursery Area(PNA)by the NC Division of Marine Fisheries but is open to the taking of Shellfish. No shellfish were noted in the project area. The only service provided currently to the area is parking for the launching of boats. 10. Proiect Description: The North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC) has made application to renovate the Shell Rock Landing public boating access in order to speed launching, control crowding and speed retrieval of boats. Renovations of the access are to include the addition of a 14' X 107.6' launching ramp and a 5' X 190' wooden dock and walkway. The NCWRC also proposes to dredge 600 yd3 from the existing basin to match basin depth to channel depth. The proposed launching ramp would be 1,506.4 ft2(14' X 107.6') in area. The ramp would extend 44' below MHW covering an area of 616 ft2. The remaining 63.6' of the ramp would be placed above MHW covering an area of 890.4 ft2. The installation of the ramp would involve the excavation of 10 yd3 below MHW and 96 yd3 above MHW. The existing apron would be extended 14' for maneuvering to the ramp. The proposed ramp would be constructed of concrete on high ground before being set in place. The proposed ramp would not cross over any coastal marsh. No SAV's or shellfish were noted in the proposed ramp area. The proposed wooden dock and walkway would be 178.3' in length overall including access walkways. Two walkways would allow access to the dock. One walkway would be Field Investigation Report: NCWRC Page 03 --------------------------- constructed along the launching ramp and would be 5' wide and 64' long. The other walkway, constructed 31' south of the ramp, would be 5' wide and 5.5' long. Both walkways would be constructed over high ground.The proposed dock would be 5' wide and 108.8' long. It would extend a maximum of 20' waterward of MHW. The dock would not cross over any marsh but would encompass 544 ft2 of public trust area. There are no permanent slips proposed and all docking will be transient. The proposed dock is for public use. In order to match the basin depth to the channel depth the NCWRC proposes to excavate 600 yd3 from a 90' X 60' (5,400 ft2) area within the basin. The excavation would take the basin from an existing average depth of—l' at MLW to a final project depth of—4' MLW. There were no SAV's or shellfish noted within the basin. The type of material to be excavated from the basin would be organic silty muck..The material would be removed by an excavator. An area 130' X 90' in a vacant field.25 miles from the basin would serve as a disposal area for the spoils. Material would be trucked from the basin'to the disposal area. Trucks would travel down 200' of paved road in route to the disposal area. 11. Anticipated Impacts: The proposed renovation of the Shell Rock Landing boating access would involve the placement of a 1,506.4 ft2 launching ramp. The ramp would be positioned such that 616 ft2 would be below MHW and 890.4 ft2 would be above MHW. Wet concrete should not be introduced to the system. The proposed 178.3' wooden dock and walkway would encompass 544 ft2 of public trust area. All of this area would be shaded. No permanent slips would result from this project as all docking would be transient. Little navigational impacts would be associated with the dock and walkway. There would be some chance for overboard discharge during transient dockage. The maintenance excavation of the basin would involve the removal of 600 yd3 from a 5,400 ft2 area. The type of material to be removed during the excavation would be organic silty muck. This material would be placed in an 11,700 ft2 high ground location. Because of the high liquid content of the material, the potential for material leaking from the trucks to the highway exists during the 200' distance traveled over paved road. The potential for turbidity exists during all phases of the project but should be temporary. No SAV's, coastal wetlands, or shellfish should be affected by the project. Water depths for the area should be sufficient for the expected use.

All work authorized by this permit must be performed in strict compliance with the attached plans, which are a part of this permit. Any modification to these plans must be approved by the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE)prior to implementation. 2. The permittee understands and agrees that, if future operations by the United States require the removal, relocation, or other alteration, of the structure or work herein authorized, or if, in the opinion of the Secretary of the Army or his authorized representative, said structure or work shall cause unreasonable obstruction to the free navigation of the navigable waters, the permittee will be required, upon due notice from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, to remove, relocate, or alter the structural work or obstructions caused thereby,without expense to the United States. No claim shall be made against the United States on account of any such removal, relocation, or alteration. The permittee shall notify NOAA/NATIONAL OCEAN SERVICE Chief Source Data Unit N CS261, 1315 E West HWY- RM 7316, Silver Spring, MD 20910- 3282 at least two weeks prior to beginning work and upon completion of work. 3. Except as specified in the plans attached to this permit, no excavation, fill or mechanized land-clearing activities shall take place at any time in the construction or maintenance of this project, in such a manner as to impair normal flows and circulation patterns within waters or wetlands or to reduce the reach of waters or wetlands. 4. Except as authorized by this permit or any USACE approved modification to this permit, no excavation, fill or mechanized land-clearing activities shall take place at any time in the construction or maintenance of this project, within waters or wetlands. This permit does not authorize temporary placement or double handling of excavated or fill material within waters or wetlands outside the permitted area. This prohibition applies to all borrow and fill activities connected with this project. 5. Unless otherwise authorized by this permit, all fill material placed in waters or wetlands shall be generated from an upland source and will be clean and free of any pollutants except in trace quantities. Metal products, organic materials (including debris from land clearing activities), or unsightly debris will not be used. 6. All mechanized equipment will be regularly inspected and maintained to prevent contamination of waters and wetlands from fuels, lubricants, hydraulic fluids, or other toxic materials. In the event of a spill of petroleum products or any other hazardous waste, the permittee shall immediately report it to the N.C. Division of Water Quality at (919) 733-5083, Ext. 526 or(800) 662-7956 and provisions of the North Carolina Oil Pollution and Hazardous Substances Control Act will be followed. 7.

All excavated materials will be confined landward of the mean high water level elevation contour and any vegetated wetlands. 11. All excavated materials will be confined landward of the mean high water level elevation contour within adequate dikes or other retaining structures to prevent spillover of dredged materials into any vegetated wetlands or surrounding waters. 12. A water control structure will be installed at the intake end of the effluent pipe leading from the retention area in order to ensure maximum settlement of suspended solids. 13. Flow from the diked retention area will be confined by pipe, trough, or similar device to a point at or below the mean low water level elevation contour to prevent gully erosion and siltation. 14. Excavation will not exceed 4 feet below the elevation of mean low water. 15. If the permittee discovers any previously unknown historic or archeological remains while accomplishing the authorized work, he will immediately notify the Wilmington District Engineer who will initiate the required coordination procedures. 16. Approval of the structure was based on determinations that there would be no obstruction to navigation. The structure may be damaged by wave wash from passing vessels. Issuance of this permit should not be construed, as relieving the permittee of taking proper steps to insure the structure and moored boats will not be damaged by wave wash. 17. The permittee shall advise the Corps in writing at least two weeks prior to beginning the work authorized by this permit and again upon completion of the work authorized by this permit. 18.

Box 1890 �- Wilmington,North Carolina 28402-1890 Subject: Action ID#200500546,Nor Marafma Wildlife Resources Commission, Shell Rock Landing Boating Access Area, Onslow County, NC Dear Mr. Wicker: This letter provides the comments of the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) on the subject Public Notice (PN), dated March 25, 2005. The applicant, the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission(NCWRC), has applied for a Department of the Army(DA)permit to j renovate an existing boat launch facility at Shell Rock Landing. The proposed work is being considered under Regional General Permit#198000291, a permit/processing agreement for work that has been approved pursuant to the North Carolina Coastal Area Management Act(CAMA). These comments are submitted in accordance with the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (FWCA) (48 Stat. 401, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661-667d). Comments related to the FWCA are to be used in your determination of compliance with 404(b)(1) guidelines (40 CFR 230) and in your public interest review(33 CFR 320.4) in relation to the protection of fish and wildlife resources. Additional comments are provided regarding the District Engineer' s determination of project impacts pursuant to section 7 of the Endangered Species Act(ESA) of 1973, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531-1543). Proposed Action and Anticipated Impacts The project area,proposed work, and anticipated impacts are described the Field Investigation Report (FIR), dated March 1, 2005, of the North Carolina Division of Coastal Management (NCDCM). The project site is a 2.24-acre public boat access area with a gravel parking area, some riprap shoreline, a launch ramp, and 80-foot floating dock. The ramp extends into a basin with a channel leading to the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway(AIWW). The substrate of the basin is organic, silty muck and the FIR states that no submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV) was noted. There is a partial fringe of smooth cordgrass (Spartina alterniflora) around the basin. The average existing depth in the basin is one foot, presumably at mean low water(MLW). The maintained channel between the basin and the AIWW has an average depth of four feet, also presumed to be at MLW. 2 The applicant proposes to renovate the existing facility by adding a second, concrete ramp (14 feet by 107.6 feet) covering 1,506.4 square feet(ft). Most of the new ramp, 890.4 ft2, would be above the mean high water(MHW) line with 616 ft2 below the high water line. The new ramp would not cross any coastal marsh and the NCDCM did not note any SAV or shellfish in the footprint of the ramp. The ramp would be constructed on high ground before being set in place. The FIR states that wet concrete should not be introduced into the system. Approximately 180- 190 feet of wooden dock and walkway(five feet wide) would be constructed. These structures would shade 544 ft2 of public trust area. Approximately 600 cubic feet of material would be removed from 5,400 ft2 of the basin bottom. The basin would be dredged to create a depth of four feet at MLW, a depth designed to match the channel depth to the AIWW. Dredged material would be transported by truck to an upland, vacant field disposal site approximately a quarter of a mile from facility. Federally Protected Species The Service has reviewed available information on federally-threatened or endangered species known to occur in Onslow County. We have also reviewed information from the North Carolina Natural Heritage Program(NCNHP)database which contains excellent data on the special status species,both federal and state. This database can be accessed by topographic quadrangle(quad) of the U. S. Geological Survey(USGS). Data from USGS quads provide the most project- specific information on species which should be considered in permitting this project. The project area is in the Hubert quad. The occurrence data of special status species within this quad can be obtained on the internet at<httn://www.nenhp.ora/Pages/heritagedata.html >. The Service carefully considers potential impacts for all in-water construction on the West Indian manatee (Trichechus manatus), a federally-endangered mammal. The species has been reported from Onslow County and there is a current record within the Hubert quad. Manatees move along the Atlantic Coast during summer months and are seasonal transients in North Carolina, primarily from June through October. Manatees may occupy waters one to two meters (3.3 -6.6 feet) deep. The species moves extensively when in North Carolina waters and past occurrence records cannot be used to precisely determine the likelihood that it will be presence at a particular construction site. Based on information in the PN and the FIR, the proposed work does not appear to pose a threat to the manatee. The NCDCM permit application states that construction would be accomplished with a bulldozer,backhoe, trackhoe, and motorgrader. It appears likely that the dredging would be done from the shoreline outward with land based equipment in areas less than 2.5 feet deep at MLW. While water depths might be in the 4-5 foot range during high tide, the unvegetated nature of the basin substrate, the use of small-scale dredging equipment, and the relatively small area to be dredged, would allow the Service to concur with a determination by the District Engineer that the action is not likely to adversely affect species designated as threatened, endangered, or their designated critical habitat. However, the requirement of section 7 would w 3 need to be reconsidered if: (1)new information reveals impacts of this identified action that may affect listed species or critical habitat in a manner not previously considered; (2)this action is subsequently modified in a manner that was not considered in this review; or, (3) a new species is listed or critical habitat determined that may be affected by the identified action. Service Concerns and Recommendations Our review indicates that the proposed work would not fundamentally change to use of the area. We are pleased that the proposed dock would not cross any marsh and that no SAV or shellfish areas would be impacted by the work. We have noted that Sheet 5 states that dredging would not come within ten feet of existing marsh. While it is unclear exactly how close the dredging would come to the marsh fringe, a ten-foot buffer would provide some protection from erosion caused by boat wakes. However, any increase in the buffer between the dredged area and the marsh would be beneficial to the long-term stability of this important habitat. The Service suggests that the applicant consider measures to encourage slow vessel speed within the enlarged basin. Slow speeds and the minimizing of boat wakes would reduce potential erosion of the marsh and may prevent the future requirement for shoreline stabilization. Overall, we do not believe that the proposed activity will have significant adverse and/or irreversible effects on general fish and wildlife resources under our jurisdiction. Therefore, the Service does not oppose the issuance of a DA permit for the actions described in the FIR and permit application of the NCWRC. The Service appreciates the opportunity to comment on this permit application.

Hamilton, Executive Director TO: Doug Huggett Division of Coastal Management FROM: Bennett Wynne Habitat Conservation Program DATE: March 24, 2005 SUBJECT: CAMA Dredge &Fill Permit Application for NC Wildlife Resources Commission, Shell Rock Landing Public Boating Access renovation, terminus of SR 1503, near Hubert, Onslow County, North Carolina. The North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission(WRC) has reviewed the project for impacts to wildlife and fishery resources. A site visit was made on November 29, 2004. 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 I I3A-128). The WRC proposes to expand the existing launch ramp, install a walkway and temporary mooring dock, and dredge the man-made basin to match the access channel depth. An alternative high ground location in a nearby field has been selected for placement of dredged material. Area waters are classified SA-ORW and open to shellfish harvest. During our submission of application materials we inadvertently omitted our commitments to avoid the April 1 to September 30 period of peak biological activity and to use a turbidity curtain to minimize the impacts of dredging-induced turbidity on sensitive estuarine waters. The permit should be conditioned to reflect these commitments. Thank you for the opportunity to comment on this project. If you have questions, please call me at (252) 522-9736.

Eas!ey, Governor Charles S. Jones, Director William G. Ross Jr., Secretary North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission March 1, 2005 C/O Mr. Tom Covington 1720 Mail Service Center Raleigh NC, 27699-1720 Dear Mr. Covington: The NC Division of Coastal Management hereby acknowledges receipt of your application for State approval for development of your property located Shell Rock Landing public boating access. It was received on February 21, 2005, and appears to be adequate for processing at this time. The projected deadline for making a decision is May 6, 2005. An additional 75-day review period is provided by law when such time is necessary to complete the review. If you have not been notified of a final action by the initial deadline stated above, you should consider the review period extended. Under those circumstances, this letter will serve as your notice of an extended review. However, an additional letter will be provided on or about the 75th day. If this agency does not render a permit decision within 70 days from February 21, 2005, you may request a meeting with the Director of the Division of Coastal Management and permit staff to discuss the status of your project. Such a meeting will be held within five working days from the receipt of your written request and shall include the property owner, developer, and project designer/consultant. NCGS 113A-119(b) requires that Notice of an application be posted at the location of the proposed development. Enclosed you will find a "Notice of Permit Filing" postcard which must be posted at the property of your proposed development. You should post this notice at a conspicuous point along your property where it can be observed from a public road. Some examples would be: Nailing the notice card to a telephone pole or tree along the road right-of- way fronting your property, or at a point along the road right-of-way where a private road would lead one into your property. Failure to post this notice could result in an incomplete application. An onsite inspection will be made, and if additional information is required, you will be contacted by the appropriate State or Federal agency. Please contact me if you have any questions and notify me in writing if you wish to receive a copy of my field report and/or comments from reviewing agencies.
