INTRODUCTION. This Environmental Assessment Report (EA) has been prepared by Quible & Associates, P.C. (Quible) on belhalf of Bridge Harbor, LLC to address the environmental characteristics and potential impacts to existing conditions in relation to a proposed open water marina that includes a boat dry stack with a boat drop. The subject property is herein referred to as the Bridge Harbor Property or the Property. This EA will be used as a decision making tool for assessment of whether the project will receive a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) or whether an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) will be required. A Coastal Area Management Act (CAMA) Major Permit Application will be submitted to the North Carolina Division of Coastal Management (DCM) once a FONSI/EIS determination is obtained. Federal review of this project by the US Army Corps of Engineers (USAGE) will determine if the CAMA submission can be processed through a joint review with the state, or whether a separate USACE Individual Permit (IP) will be required. The lead agency for the State EA review and processing is DCM, and USACE will be the lead federal agency. The site is comprised of two parcels located on the Pamlico River and US 17, adjacent to the south side of the US 17 bridge, within the limits of the City of Washington. Lot 1 (PIN # 5675- 67-4388) is 2.41 ac. and Lot 2 (PIN # 5675-67-5100) is 3.48 ac. with a combined total area of 5.89 ac (See Figure 1, USGS Topographic Map of the relevant portion of the Washington 7.5 minute quadrangle. There are 2.76 ac. of wetlands located on the site. The center of the Property lies at approximately 35.5391803°N and 77.05570870W. B. PERMITTED WORK. The site is the location of a former bulk fuel storage facility and has been deemed eligible for entry into the NC Brownfields program through the NC Division of Waste Management (DWM). Recent cleanup work involved excavation and removal of areas of contaminated soils associated with the release of petroleum fuel product from the former bulk fuel facility. The cleanup/remediation area includes a small area of Section 404 wetlands, and a Nationwide 38 Permit (SAW-2007-0297-107, 3/21/08) has been issued by USACE for wetland impacts in this location (included as Attachment A). This also required a 401 Water Quality Certification (07- 1960 Ver.2, 4/14/08, included as Attachment B). This work is complete and did not require a CAMA permit since it did not involve work in any CAMA Areas of Environmental Concern (AEC's). The site is also the site of a boat mooring facility that included piers, 10 slips, decking, boat ramp and shoreline stabilization (CAMA Major 77-95, 6/15/95 and Major Modification, 9/3/97, included as Attachment C). The permitted and built water dependent structures are depicted on the CAMA Base Map (Figure 2). The structures are currently in poor condition and in a dilapidated state. Other recent permits include a SESCP Permit from NCDLQ (Beauf-2008-023, 4/16/08, included as Attachment D) and a General Stormwater Permit (SW7080328, 5/19/08, included as Attachment E). These permits are for upland grading for areas outside CAMA AEC's and DWQ Buffer Zones. August 2009 SEPA EA for Bridge Harbor, LLC Beaufort County, North Carolina CAMA Major 153-08 was issued on 9/22/08 (See Attachment F) for installation of 384 linear feet of new bulkhead, generally along the normal water line (NWL). This work is also complete. C. PROPOSED PROJECT DESCRIPTION. As depicted in Figure 3, Marina Plan, the proposed Project involves creation of an open water marina and a boat dry stack facility with a boat drop structure. The proposed open water marina has been designed to eliminate the need for dredging and there is at least three feet of water in the slips nearest the shore and an average of five to six feet of water at the most waterward slips. The proposed marina consists of five individual piers running from the shoreline to deep water. Each of the piers shown on Figure 3, except for Pier 3, terminate at a line established at one-fourth the water body width line as per 15A NCAC 07H .0208 Use Standards, (b)(6)(iii). Pier 3 is proposed to be repaired and rebuilt to the extent necessary in the same footprint as an existing pier that has historically been used for boat slips and was the subject of previous CAMA permits (See Attachment C). This was discussed at length with DCM and other State and Federal regulatory/resource agencies, and was deemed acceptable during the March 4, 2009 scoping meeting. As shown on Figure 2, there is a second existing (but dilapidated) pier that extends beyond the one-fourth water body line. During the March 4, 2009 scoping meeting, DCM expressed that they would not support rebuilding of a second pier (beyond the one-fourth water body line) for several reasons, including the width of the piling spacings and the dilapidated nature of the structure. The matter of pursuing a CAMA variance through the NC Coastal Resources Commission (CRC) for rebuilding this pier in the same alignment was discussed at length during the scoping meeting, but that alternative is not environmentally preferred or proposed at this time (See Alternatives Analysis). Boat slips will include approximately 133 total slips of varying sizes including: (88) @ 14 ft x 26 ft, (33) @ 16 ft x 36 it, (8) @ 20 x 50 it, (2) @ 24 ft x 60 ft and (2) staging slips at the fueling and pump -out area. Also proposed are designated canoe/kayak and paddle vessel tie up areas in the locations shown on Figure 3. This is a slotted/pervious walkway that will provide access to the marina piers. Boating gear and supplies can be carted to individual slips along this designated walkway. A 150 slip dry boat storage facility with a mobile boat lift and drop service is proposed. This would consist of (2) 75-slip structures with an associated concrete boat drop area as depicted on Figure 3. Figure 4 is a schematic of the proposed boat drop. There is a proposed boat washdown area associated with the marina that is proposed to be located inside of the dry storage structure. The designated washdown area will include catch basin inserts to filter solid contaminants associated with boat washdown. As elaborated in Section G.14 Environmental Effects, Introduction of Toxic Substances, the filters will collect substances such as paint chips or petroleum product residue A shiptore/clubhouse for marina related retail and food service needs is also proposed as shown as shown on Figure 3. In addition, there will be designated parking areas that adhere to the City of Washington requirements. A sewage pumpout station will be located beside the fuel pumps to serve boats with heads. The marina facility is to be designed, maintained and managed to be qualified as an NC Clean Marina. SEPA EA for Bridge Harbor, LLC Beaufort County, North Carolina August 2009 D. PURPOSE AND NEED OF PROJECT. The purpose of the Project is to create a recreational boat marina. The marina will benefit the local economy with short term and long term job creation and increases in the tax base of the City of Washington and Beaufort County by adding value to the development and neighboring properties. There is a need for marinas and water access locations, especially for those citizens who do not own property on deep water. With waterfront properties at a premium, marinas allow non - waterfront residents to readily access and enjoy our public trust natural resources. Tourism and outdoor recreation are important and growing economic components to the City of Washington and Beaufort County, and vital supplements to the manufacturing backbone of the economy. E. ALTERNATIVES ANALYSIS. 1. Preferred Alternative — Open Water Marina (Project as Proposed). See Section C, Proposed project Description (above) and Section G, Predicted Environmental Effects of the Project, for a description. See also Figure 3 and Figure 4. 2. Alternative II: Open Water Marina. The Alternative II Open Water Marina option that was considered is included as Figure 5. This alternative was discussed at length during a March 4, 2009 scoping meeting and involves the construction of four piers, two of which extend beyond the one-fourth water body width. It was the recommendation of DCM that this alternative not be pursued due to the judgment by representatives of DCM that Pier 4 from Figure 5 would not be considered repair. While there are existing pilings and pier stringers in this alignment, it is DCM's position that the piling width is too great and the structure is in a dilapidated state beyond repair. Based on DCM's recommendations, the marina plan was amended to the Project as Proposed. 3. Alternative III: Other Open Water Marina Configurations. Other marina configurations considered involve the inclusion of additional piers_(compared to the Preferred Alternative and Alternative II) further to the south. However, recent water depth surveys in this area indicate very shallow water and a large sand shoal in this area. Therefore, additional piers for boat moorings in this area would require new dredging. This is not an environmentally preferred alternative, nor is this preferred. It should also be noted that North Carolina Department of Cultural Resources (DCR), State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) recommends that an archaeological survey be conducted to identify submerged remains that exist if piers are proposed that are south of the existing pilings. The Preferred Alternative and Alternative II would not require an archaeological assessment since known submerged structures of interest to SHPO would not be disturbed. 4. Alternative IV: No Action Alternative. The No Action Alternative (related to a marina and dry stack) would not serve the project purpose and need. Given the market value of riparian properties such as this, the No Action option is economically unrealistic unless the Property is acquired and protected by a land conservation organization or a public entity that creates a park or public boat launch area. 3 SEPA EA for Bridge Harbor, LLC Beaufort County, North Carolina August 2009 No action would also mean no increase in the Beaufort County ad valorem tax base that would otherwise be achieved by the proposed development. F. EXISTING ENVIRONMENTAL CHARACTERISTICS OF PROJECT AREA 1. Topography. Included as Figure 6, is the latest grading plan. In general, the wetland elevation is approximately 2.5 feet NAVD 88 according existing topographic data. The pre-existing concrete and the majority of the existing impervious areas on the Property have been removed during cleanup activities associated with the former petroleum product releases on the site. Current upland elevations range from 3-10 feet NAVD 88. Soil remediation efforts associated with the NC Brownfields Program remediation included 0.16 acres of wetlands disturbance that has been permitted under a Nationwide #38 and a 401 Water Quality Certification (See Attachments A and B). Included on Figure 3 are water depth soundings, measured by Quible on February 12, 2009. Water depths were established using a 10 foot graduated measuring rod (depths rounded to the nearest 0.25 feet) and located with a hand-held GPS unit. Depths are relative to normal water level (NWL). 2. Soils. The main reference for historical mapping data, soil classification and descriptions is the 1995 Soil Survey of Beaufort County, North Carolina, published by the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) and Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS). Figure 7, Soil Map Overlay, is an overlay of the USDA/NRCS Soils Survey. Soil types on the soil survey include Seabrook loamy sand Dorovan muck. A description of these soil types are as follows: a. Seabrook loamy sand (Sb). This is a nearly level, moderately well drained soil found on smooth ridges of river and stream terraces. Typically, the surface layer is a grayish brown loamy sand to 8 inches, underlain by loamy sand with yellow -brown -gray hues. The permeability is generally very rapid. b. Dorovan mucky peat (Do). This is a nearly level, very poorly drained organic soil found in wooded areas and flood plains along the Pamlico Sound. Typically, the surface layer consists of dark mucky brown peat underlain by black muck to 63 inches. Permeability is moderate. As a component of the Brownfields remediation effort, much of the surface soils of uplands on the west side of the Property have been removed and have been replaced by sand dominated fill material from an off -site location. In addition, as represented on Figure 6, recent grading on areas outside the remediation limits required the import of sand dominated material as well. As a component of a previously proposed residential condominium development on the Property, Bridge Harbor, LLC contracted the services of Terracon for the purpose of subsurface geotechnical testing. Included as Attachment G is Terracon's Geotechnical Engineering Report, dated July 13, 2006. The boring logs near the end of the report indicate varying grades of sand, silt and clay from the surface, down to 25- 23 feet below surface in the upland areas of the Property. 0 SEPA EA for Bridge Harbor, LLC Beaufort County, North Carolina August 2009 3. Land Use. The Property is composed of two parcels. The 2.41 acre parcel was previously owned by Tim Forrest and was the site of the existing pier that was retrofit with 10 boat slips as permitted in CAMA Major 77-95 (See Attachment C). The 3.48 acre parcel was previously owned by Julian Moore and is the former location of Waters Oil, a commercial bulk fuel facility. The upland portions of this site had several above ground fuel storage tanks and concrete pads, a storage building and office, and concrete drives and parking areas. All of this infrastructure has been removed as part of the remediation efforts associated with the NC Brownfields Program. The Property is currently undeveloped. 4. Wetlands. The Section 404 wetland areas on the property were delineated by Scott Jones, USACE and surveyed by Jarvis and Associates in 2007. The surveyed wetlands delineation has been used for the basis of recent CAMA, USACE and DWQ Permitting. The wetland areas encompass 2.76 acres of the total 5.89 acres. The cleanup/remediation area included 0.16 acres of Section 404 wetland impacts (See USACE and DWQ permits included as Attachments A and B). This work is complete and did not require a CAMA permit. There are no coastal wetlands. This determination was made by Mike Thomas, DCM on February 12, 2009 during an on -site meeting with Brian Rubino of Quible. 5. Prime or Unique Agricultural Lands. There is no Prime or Unique Agricultural Land. 6. Public Lands and Scenic, Recreational, and State Natural Areas. The Property does not include any public, State or Federal lands, nor are there any designated Scenic, Recreational or State Natural Areas on, or adjacent to, the Property. Public trust waters of the Pamlico River border the Property. 7. Areas of Archaeological or Historic Value. There are no known archaeological or significant historical sites on the property. Attachment H includes a letter from SHPO that will be further discussed in Section G.7 Predicted Environmental Effects of this report. 8. Air Quality. The Property is not located in an area affected or threatened by contamination from gaseous air pollutants. 9. Noise Levels. The most appreciable noise is generated by automobiles on the public rights -of -way and power boats that utilize Pamlico River. 10. Water Resources (Surface Water and Groundwater). The Property lies on the Pamlico River. Waters of the Pamlico River in this area are classified as C (Fish Propagation), NSW (Nutrient Sensitive Waters) by NCDENR and are SEPA EA for Bridge Harbor, LLC Beaufort County, North Carolina August 2009 not considered to contain pollutants above NCDENR state standards, as listed in the NCAC Administrative Code, Subchapter 2B, Section 0.0200. The Pamlico River is also designated as an Inland Primary Nursery Area (PNA) by the NC Wildlife Resources Commission (WRC). Included as Attachment I, is a set of maps obtained from the DMF website that includes surface water designations and fisheries data. Surface sediments in the vicinity of the Property consist primarily of unconsolidated deposits of sand, clay, silt and decomposed organic material. Though all of these media have pore spaces and can hold water, clay and some organic strata only allow fluids to pass at slow rates, while fluids transmit rapidly through sand. As described in the soils section above, most surface soil types on the Property are a combination of sand, silt and clay. Below the top of the groundwater table, sands can yield a usable water supply, while clay layers are nearly impermeable. Semi -confined aquifers in this region are separated by clay confining beds. Subsurface geology consists of sedimentary sequences of semi -confined aquifers and confining beds with an easterly homoclinal dip. 11. Forest Resources. Forest resources on the Property primarily consist of mixed hardwoods in the wetland areas. 12. Shellfish and/or Finfish and Their Habitat. The waters of the Pamlico Sound in the vicinity of the Property are inland waters (see Descriptive Boundaries for Coastal -Joint -Inland Waters included in Attachment 1). As inland waters, this area is closed to shellfishing, including crab pots. Attachment J includes letters from Quible to Ron Sechler, NMFS and Sean McKenna, DMF, dated 5-5-09, notifying NMFS and DMF of the proposed project with requests for pertinent fisheries sampling data. Included in Attachment K is a list of species from the DMF independent gill net survey (2003-2007) for the Upper Pamlico River, listed in order of abundance from catch per unit effort. This area of the Pamlico commonly supports fresh to brackish species, including anadromous migratory populations and saltwater species on occasion. Mr. McKenna has indicated that this list of species is representative of the Pamlico River at Bridge Harbor. There is no indication that this area of the Pamlico River supports any significant submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV) growth. During data collection visits performed in association with previous CAMA permits, land disturbance permits and during preparation of this EA, no rooted SAV was encountered. During the March 4, 2009 scoping meeting, there were no agency concerns raised regarding SAV in this particular are due to bottom conditions and turbidity. In the summer of 2009, a request was made to DWQ to perform a SAV evaluation. On July 22, 2009, Jill Paxson from DWQ performed an evaluation for SAV and no SAV was observed. 13. Wildlife and Natural Vegetation. The wetland areas provide habitat to an array of common fauna and tree, shrub and herb flora. According to natural communities described by Schafale and Weakley, 1990, the wetland community resembles a Coastal plain Bottomland Hardwood Forest. The current list of threatened and endangered species for Beaufort County was obtained from the NC Natural Heritage Program, updated on May 4, 2008. None of the following SEPA EA for Bridge Harbor, LLC Beaufort County, North Carolina August2009 species have been identified on the property. Below is a tabular summary of State and Federal threatened and endangered species along with a description of each.

Shortnose Sturgeon (Acipenser brevirostrum). This endangered fish has historically inhabited the lower sections of large rivers and coastal waters along the Atlantic coast. It is usually less than 3 ft long and has a wide mouth pointed downward beneath a short snout. It has five rows of sharp, pointed plates along the sides of its body that provide protection from predators. While there have been documented specimens caught in other nearby coastal counties in North Carolina, it is unknown when last observed in Beaufort County. b. American Alligator (Alligator mississippiensis). This threatened reptile is listed as threatened due to the similarity in appearance and habitat preferences to the American crocodile (Crocodylus acutus). Preferred habitats include rivers, streams, lakes, ponds, swamps, wetlands, and other low water areas where fish, fowl and small animals provide an adequate food supply. c. Red Wolf (Canis rufus). This federally endangered mammal is a medium sized canid which inhabits any area of sufficient size that provides food, water, and thick vegetation for cover, including coastal prairie and marsh habitat. While extirpated from the easten US by the 1920's, there is an experimental population of red wolves managed from the Alligator River National Wildlife Refuge. The Property does not offer the appropriate habitat since it is not contiguous to a significant area of open land. SEPA EA for Bridge Harbor, LLC Beaufort County, North Carolina August 2009 d. Rafinesque's Big -eared Bat (Corynorhinus rafinesquii macrotis). This mammal is considered threatened by the State of North Carolina. This is a relatively small (7-13 grams and 45 to 70 mm) bat that roosts in trees and under leaves. This brown colored bat is distinguished by its large ears. Like most bats, the Rafinesque feeds after dark on small insects by hovering like a butterfly or hummingbird. They are known to roost in old buildings, caves and mines and are usually found near water. e. Bald Eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus). This large raptor is considered threatened by the State of North Carolina. It is found to nest in mature forests near large bodies of water, including sounds and rivers. The bald eagle is a powerful, brown bird that matures with a white head and tail. Females generally weigh up to 14 pounds, and have a wingspan of 8 feet. Males are smaller, weighing 7-10 pounds, and have a wingspan of 6.5 feet. No nests have been identified on the property and most trees on the Property are not of sufficient size to support the bald eagle. Bald eagles are commonly found along the Pamlico River. Atlantic Ridley (Lepidochelys kempii) This endangered reptile is found in open marine environments or on beaches when laying eggs. Atlantic Ridley or Kemp's Ridley is not listed as having been observed in Beaufort County within the last 20 years. This is a small to medium-sized sea turtle with a very broad, heart -shaped shell. Juveniles may be found along the North Carolina coastal areas, but they are known to nest in the southern Gulf of Mexico (Texas and Mexico). Red -cockaded Woodpecker (Picoides borealis). This endangered wood boring bird is small (20-22 cm). There are black and white horizontal stripes on its back, and its cheeks and underparts are white. Its flanks are black streaked. The cap and stripe on the side of the neck and the throat are black. The male has a small red spot on each side of the black cap. After the first post fledgling molt, fledgling males have a red crown patch. Habitat includes mature open pine forests, mainly in longleaf pines. h. Carolina Gopher Frog (Rana capito). This amphibian is considered to be threatened by the State of North Carolina. The Carolina gopher frog resembles a toad in many aspects, including its warty skin, large head and chunky body. Gopher frogs depend on fishless ponds for breeding. Virtually all breeding sites are upland ephemeral ponds in longleaf pine savannas. This species has not been found as far North as Beaufort County in recent history. West Indian Manatee (Trichechus manatus). This endangered aquatic mammal, affectionately known as the sea cow, is found in both salt and fr9sh water bodies in depths of 1.5 to 6 meters (5 to 20 feet) including canals, rivers, estuaries and bays. While the area is not considered common habitat for manatees, there have been documented sightings of manatees in nearby waters. j. Atlantic Pigtoe (Fusconaia masoni). This bivalve is a mussel that inhabits clean, swift waters with stable gravel, or sand and gravel substrate. This species has either been extirpated from Beaufort County or it has not been identified in recent history. k. Sensitive Jointvetch (Aeschynomene virginica). This endangered (state designation) and threatened (federal designation) is an annual plant that typically SEPA EA for Bridge Harbor, LLC Beaufort County, North Carolina August 2009 attains heights of 1 to 2 meters in a single growing season, although they can grow as tall as 2.4 meters. The stems are single, sometimes branching near the top, and with stiff or bristly hairs. The leaves are even -pinnate, 2 to 12 centimeters (cm) long, with entire, glad -dotted leaflets. The yellow, irregular flowers are 1.0 to 1.5 cm across, streaked with red. Sensitive joint -vetch grows in the intertidal zone where plants are flooded twice daily. The species seems to prefer the marsh edge at an elevation near the upper limit of tidal fluctuation. Rough -leaf Loosestrife (Lysimachia asperulifolia). This endangered perennial plant has yellow flowers that are 1.5 cm across with yellow -orange anthers. Flowering occurs from mid -May through June. This species generally occurs in the ecotones or edges between longleaf pine uplands and pond pine pocosins (areas of dense shrub and vine growth usually on a wet, peaty, poorly drained soil) on moist to seasonally saturated sands and on shallow organic soils overlaying sand. m. Snowy Orchid (Platanthera nivea). This plant is considered to be threatened by the State of North Carolina. Each plant contains many bright white flowers with slender, erect stems. Habitats include savannas and bogs. This species has either been extirpated from Beaufort County or it has not been identified in recent history. G. PREDICTED ENVIROMENTAL EFFECTS OF THE PROJECT 1. Topography. There is no proposed work that will have an effect on topography. The relative topographic conditions are indicated in Figure 6. The permitted grading as per SESCP Beauf-2008-023, dated 4/16/08 and modified on 5/7/09 (Attachment D) has been completed by Bridge Harbor, LLC in the spring of 2009. The Project as Proposed does not include dredging. 2. Soils. There is no proposed work that will have a negative effect on existing upland soils. See the permitted and implemented grading plan included as Figure 6. Site work for the proposed upland infrastructure will take into account geotechinal recommendations that may include minor fill, compaction, footers, etc. The driving of pilings into the public trust substrate will create short term local turbidity, but this is not expected to cause a displacement or change in bottom type. 3. Land Use. The Project as Proposed will create a marina facility where none currently exists. While there has been marina dockage and documented boat slips and marine based commerce on the property in the past (still evident from the existing piers and pilings), no marina (greater than 10 slips) has been permitted by DCM. In addition to the 133 proposed open water boat slips, there is a proposed dry boat storage facility with 150 dry storage slips. A shiptore/clubhouse for marina related retail and food service is also proposed, along with parking areas that adhere to the City of Washington requirements. Based on the past contamination issues associated with the former bulk fuel facility on the Property, and the fact that the sources of contamination have been removed and the site appropriately remediated, this change of land use is not expected to have a negative impact on the land. SEPA EA for Bridge Harbor, LLC Beaufort County, North Carolina August2009 4. Wetlands. There are no additional wetland fill impacts proposed. Proposed wetland shading is limited to 1,342 sq.ft. (0.03 ac) and is associated with a pile-suppoted slatted walkway over Section 404 wetlands leading from the proposed ship store to the marina. This is a water -dependent feature. 5. Prime or Unique Agricultural Lands. As previously stated, there is no Prime or Unique Agricultural Land. 6. Public Lands and Scenic, Recreational and State Natural Areas. As noted above, there are currently no public lands or designated scenic, recreational, or State natural areas on the property. The location of the proposed open water marina is in the riparian corridor of public trust waters of the Pamlico River. The total area of proposed piers, boat drop and slip area in the public trust is 80,057 sq.ft. (1.84 ac.). A breakdown of the open water use of the proposed marina is as follows: STRUCTURE PIER AREA (sq.ft.) BOAT SLIP AREA (sq.ft.) TOTAL (sq.ft.) Pier 1 2,153 18,944 21,103 Pier 1,987 6,172 8,159 Pier 3 3,091 19,332 22,423 Piers 4 & 5 4,454 17,472 21,926 Boat Drop 1,484 4,962 6,446 If required by the North Carolina State Property Office, a submerged lands easement will be sought for this use if necessary. It has been a common condition in CAMA Major Permits that coordination with the State Property Office occurs prior to construction of an open water marina such as this. 7. Areas of Archaeological or Historical Value. As previously stated there are no known archaeological or significant historical sites on the property. Included as Attachment H, is a letter from SHPO that was written in response to two marina alternatives that were initially considered. Due to a reported shipwreck downriver of the existing piers on the Property, the alternative that included additional piers downriver or south of the existing piers would require an archaeological survey to identify the presence and significance of submerged arcgaeological remains. That alternative, referred to as Alternative B in Attachment H is similar to what is referred to as Alternative III herein (See Section E.3 above). The project as currently proposed does not propose new piers in the location of the reported shipwreck, and therefore will not have an effect on archaeological resources. 8. Air Quality. There will be no significant impacts to air quality resulting from the Project. 10 SEPA EA for Bridge Harbor, LLC Beaufort County, North Carolina 9. Noise Levels. August 2009 There will be some temporary increases in noise levels on the property during the construction phase by heavy machinery including vibratory hammers, bull dozers, excavators, backhoes, rollers and pavers. Following construction, there will be an increase in boaters and therefore an increase in associated noise. This increase in noise is not anticipated to be a significant impact. Activities associated with launch and retrieval of boats from the dry stack will create localized noise. 10. Water Resources. The potential for water quality impacts associated with projects such as this include: a. Increased Turbidity Impacts During Construction, b. Marina Harmful Substance Releases, and c. Surface Water Runoff. Each is discussed below: a. Increased Turbidity Prior to new pier construction, existing pilings that are in a dilapidated condition will be removed. This was a topic of discussion during the March 4, 2009 inter -agency scoping meeting. The existing pilings (except for those along the alilgnment of Pier 3) must be removed for new pier construction, and, those pilings are currently considered a hazard to navigation. The locations of the existing pilings are approximately depicted on Figure 2. The pilings that are especially a navigational safety problem are in the former pier alignment closest to the US 17 bridge (west of Proposed Pier 1). Many of these pilings extend only about 1 foot above NWL and are at times entirely submerged, and therefore, not visible to boaters. The pilings will be pulled out of place where possible. Those pilings that cannot be pulled out of place from machinery on a barge will be saw -cut at the substrate base. These are the two methods of piling removal that were discussed at the scoping meeting. On other similar projects in this area, these methods of piling removal have been acceptable. There will be some short-term local increased turbidity associated with piling removal. This minor turbidity increase will have only a negligible impact compared to turbidity increases that would be associated with excavating or washing pilings out. The new proposed piers are to be supported by timber pilings that will be driven in place from a barge with a vibratory hammer. If necessary, pilings will also be washed in place. As with any new pier construction, this is anticipated to cause minor short-term local turbidity impacts. New shoreline stabilization bulkhead has been installed at approximately NWL as permitted in CAMA Major 153-08 (See Attachment F and Figure 2), therefore, there is no increased turbidity associated with new bulkhead construction or shoreline erosion expected or proposed. b. Marina Operations It is intended that this project is designed and managed in ways required to meet the North Carolina Clean Marina Program protocol. A sewage pumpout station will be located on Pier 2 adjacent to the boat drop, to serve boats with heads. There will be clearly visible signage that states "Discharge of any Boat Waste into Public Trust Waters is Prohibited" and "Pumpout Station Available". 11 SEPA EA for Bridge Harbor, LLC August 2009 Beaufort County, North Carolina Wastewater will be accepted and treated by the City of Washington municipal wastewater treatment system. There will be a designated fish cleaning station located between Piers 2 and 3. A sign beside the station will state "Dumping of fish waste into marina basin is prohibited". There will be a covered receptacle located at the fish cleaning station specifically for disposal of fish waste. Another covered receptacle will be for common trash. When practical, the fish waste will be used for compost or crab bait. There will be no on -site fueling or storage of significant amounts of petroleum based fuels. c. Surface Water Runoff A Stormwater Management permit will'be obtained to address runoff associated with the concrete boat drop. The impervious cover leading to the boat drop has been designed to be graded in a way that will not direct or funnel stormwater from adjacent impervious surfaces to the boat drop. All upland development associated with the dry stack, ship store and parking areas will be addressed in a State Stormwater Management Permit as well as a Beaufort County Stormwater Management Permit. The cover or built -upon area within the Tar -Pamlico Buffer Zones will be limited to water dependent uses including a slatted walkway/pier that connects the marina piers and a boat drop drive from dry stack to the water. The walkway will be a designated access route to minimize other potential access routes through the buffer zones. This is considered pervious and will not be roofed on any areas. The boat drop drive will include 1,477 sq.ft. of Zone 1 impervious cover and 599 sq.ft. of Zone 2 impervious cover. A Soil Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plan (SESCP) will be prepared to control sediment movement associated with boat basin and associated infrastructure construction. All areas affected by land disturbing construction activities will be protected with a combination of grading, diversions, silt fence, siltation basins and temporary and permanent vegetative stabilization. 11. Forest Resources. The project as proposed will have no impact to forest resources. 12. Shellfish and/or Finfish and Their Habitat. The proposed 133 slip marina will temporarily disturb the benthic substrate within the pier and slip area, particularly adjacent to piling installations. Other than this disturbance, no dredging or excavation of sediments or shallow water habitat within the Pamlico River is proposed. To minimize unavoidable impacts to fisheries habitat, it is recommended that the installation of pilings be limited to a period starting on October 1 and ending not later than March 31. This construction moratorium will help minimize impacts to aquatic eggs, larvae, and juvenile shellfish and finfish species. The proposed pilings have the potential to provide an artificial habitat for fish, mollusks, and invertebrates found in the surrounding waters. This issue was an important subject of the March 4, 2009 inter -agency scoping meeting. It is understood that the removal of the existing dilapidated pilings will include a removal of existing habitat, but there will be a net increase in pilings. The number of existing pilings is approximately 330 and the number of 12 SEPA EA for Bridge Harbor, LLC Beaufort County, North Carolina August 2009 new pilings associated with the Project as Proposed is approximately 700. These pilings include pier support pilings spaced on 8 ft centers and mooring pilings associated with the new slips. As discussed in Section F.12, Existing Environmental Characteristics of the Project Area, Shellfish and/or Finfish and Their Habitat, there is no evidence of SAV growth in the proposed marina area. Impacts to fish and their habitat associated with the Project will be negligible. 13. Wildlife and Natural Vegetation. Changes in land use would have only negligible effects to wildlife and natural vegetation habitat. The upland areas of the property that will be developed have a history of being used for industrial and marina purposes, arid are certainly far from being in pristine condition in relation to providing important wildlife and natural vegetation habitat. The wetland areas provide habitat to an array of common fauna and tree, shrub and herb flora. There is no intended impact to the wetland areas on the Property. 14. Introduction of Toxic Substances The boat washdown area associated with the marina is proposed to be located inside of the dry storage structure. The designated washdown area will include catch basin inserts to filter solid contaminants associated with boat washdown. The filters are to be located within a central washdown drain contained within a curbed pavement area under the dry stack roof. The insert filters will collect materials such as paint chips, oil/grease and nondescript sediment before the wastewater reaches the City of Washington central sewer system. This will include an oil -water separator that will collect oil. There will be a sewage pumpout station as discussed in Section G.10.b above. H. SECONDARY AND CUMULATIVE IMPACTS 1. Secondary Impacts. Secondary impacts are defined in 15A NCAC 1 C.0101(d)(4) as impacts that are "caused by and result from the proposed activity although they are later in time or further removed in distance, but they are still reasonably foreseeable." Anticipated secondary impacts associated with the Project include the following: a. Increase in vehicular traffic associated with access to the marina. The proposed development will cause a minor increase in traffic on US 17. The existing road infrastructure is considered adequate to handle the increased flow, and, it is likely that the US 17 bypass will be open to traffic prior to the Bridge Harbor marina. b. Potential increase in retail and commercial services associated with boating activities. The marina will have the potential of triggering new retail and commercial services (including marine mechanical, boating supply, and food service). The land use plans in the area would allow for these type of services in areas along US 17 in Washington or 13 SEPA EA for Bridge Harbor, LLC Beaufort County, North Carolina August 2009 Chocowinity. This is not anticipated to have a significant impact to the area and may in fact create some local jobs and provide a minor boost to the local economy. c. Increased Need for Potable Water and Wastewater Treatment. As described herein, the Project will be served potable water by Beaufort County and Wastewater treatment will be provided by the City of Washington's sewer service. In addition to these utility requirements for the Bridge Harbor marina, there is potential for minor increase in demand for water and wastewater treatment needs on related businesses outside the Property associate with secondary businesses as described in item b above. 2. Cumulative Impacts. Cumulative impacts are defined in 15A NCAC 1C.0101(d)(2) as impacts "resulting from the incremental impact of the proposed activity when added to other past, present, and reasonably foreseeable future activities regardless of what entities undertake such activities." While there are several existing marinas located within Beaufort County, the construction of the marina at Bridge Harbor and the proposed construction of 133 wet slips and 150 dry stack slots represent a substantial increase in the number of vessels that have access to the Pamlico River. However, it is the position of local officials and citizens that the waters of Beaufort County are significantly underutilized at present and that the Project is expected to enhance access but not significantly degrade, or impinge upon the use by others of, the most valuable recreational resource of the area. There does not appear to be an appreciable risk that the additional vessel traffic would meaningfully elevate navigation risks in the area or adversely affect water quality. I. MITIGATIVE MEASURES 1. Sewage Pumpout. A sewage pumpout station will be provided adjacent to the boat drop, to serve boats with heads. There will be clearly visible signage that states "Discharge of any Boat Waste into Public Trust Waters is Prohibited" and "Pumpout Station Available". 2. Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasures Plan. The following is a Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasures Plan to be followed by boat owners and tenants at the Bridge Harbor Marina in the event that a spill or other release of hazardous materials. Contact lists will be posted in proximity to the waterfront. The posted list will include: • Local Fire Department 911 • County or Local Emergency Planning or Haz-Mat Response Team, (252) 482-3115 State Division of the Environment and Natural Resources, (252) 946-6481 Boat owners will be advised to call one, or all, of these numbers as required, should a release of hazardous materials occur. 14 SEPA EA for Bridge Harbor, LLC Beaufort County, North Carolina August 2009 Also provided on -site will be spill kits that can be used by boat owners, property owners and tenants within the marina area to provide immediate remediation in case of a spill or release. The kit will include: • 1 pack of No. 8Q42933 - 8"x18' long booms ten pack • 1 pack of No. 8Q-4004 - sorbent pillows ten pack J.

Be reminded that all sediment and erosion control measures must be properly installed as per the approved details. 7. This approval is limited to site remediation activities as proposed in the approved plan only. Any additional proposed development will require a new plan be submitted to this office for approval. In 1973, the Sedimentation Pollution Control Act (copy available upon request) was enacted. It established a performance oriented program with the OBJECTIVE of PREVENTING SEDIMENT DAMAGE to adjoining properties and/or natural resources resulting from land disturbing activities through the use of reasonable and appropriate Best Land Management Practices, based on the approved plan and changing site conditions, during the course of the project. AS THE DECLARED RESPONSIBLE PARTY, YOUR LEGAL RESPONSIBILITY is to understand the Act and comply with the following minimum requirements of the Act and the above listed modifications (if any): - an erosion and sedimentation control plan is only valid for 3 years following the date of initial approval, if no land -disturbing activity has been undertaken; the LATEST APPROVED soil erosion and sediment control plan will be used during inspection to determine compliance and a copy of the plan must be on file at the job site; - erosion and sediment control measures or• devices are to be installed to safely withstand the runoff resulting from a 10 year storm event - 6.5 - 7 inches in 24 hours or at the rate of 6.5 - 7 inches in I hour. unless the off -site borrow and/or disposal sites are identified in the erosion control plan, no earthen material is to be brought on or removed ,from the project site; Bridge Harbor, LLC Attn: Mr. Zane Buckman April 16, 2008 Page 3 except in the case of a storm related emergency, a revised erosion and sedimentation control plan must be submitted to and approved by this office prior to initiating any significant changes in the construction, grading or drainage plans; buffer zone, sufficient to restrain visible sedimentation within the 25% of the width closest to the land disturbance, must be provided and maintained between the land -disturbing activity and any adjacent property or watercourse; new or affected cut or filled slopes must be at an angle that can be retained by vegetative cover, AND must be provided with a wound cover sufficient to restrain erosion within 21 calendar days of completion of anv phase (rough or mall of grading (RYE GRASS IS NOT in the APPROVED seeding specifications NOR is it an ACCEPTABLE substitute for the providing of a temporary ground cover); the CERTIFICATE OF PLAN APPROVAL must be posted at the primary entrance to the job site and remain until the site is permanently stabilized; unless a temporary, manufactured, lining material has been specified, a clean straw mulch must be applied, at the minimum rate of 2 tons/acre, to all seeded areas. The mulch must cover at least 75% of the seeded area after it is either tacked, with an acceptable tacking material, or crimped in place; in order to comply with the intent of the Act, the scheduling of the land - disturbing activities is to be such that both the area of exposure and the time between the land disturbance and the providing of a ground cover is minimized; - a permanent mound cover. sufficient restrain erosion, must be provided within the shorter of 15 working or 90 calendar days after completion of construction or development on any portion of the tract (RYE GRASS IS NOT in the APPROVED seeding specifications NOR is it an ACCEPTABLE substitute for the providing of a nurse cover for the permanent grass cover); and, Bridge Harbor, LLC Attn: Mr. Zane Buckman April 16, 2008 Page 4 this approval is based, in part, on the accuracy of the information provided in the Financial Responsibility/Ownership form submitted with the project plans. You are required to file an amended form if there is any change in the information included on the form. This approval and the financial responsibility/liability cited in it does not automatically transfer with a change in project ownership. Be advised that to ensure compliance with the approved plan and the program requirements, unannounced periodic inspections will be made. If it is determined that the implemented plan is inadequate, this office may require the installation of additional measures and/or that the plan be revised to comply with state law. (Note: Revisions to the scope of this project without prior approval of the plan showing the changes can be considered a violation). Failure to comply with any part of the approved plan or with any requirements of this program could result in the taking of appropriate legal action (civil or criminal) against the financially responsible party (Bridge Harbor, LLC). Some options are Stop Work Orders and the assessing of a civil penalty of up to $5000 for the initial violation plus up to $5000 per day for each day the site is out of compliance. In recognizing the desirability of early coordination of sedimentation control, we believe it would be beneficial for you and your contractor to arrange a preconstruction conference to discuss the requirements of the approved erosion and sedimentation control plan. Prior to beginning this project, YOU ARE REQUIRED TO either CONTACT THIS OFFICE TO ADVISE ME (252-946-6481, ext. 3973) OF THE CONSTRUCTION START-UP DATE, contractor and on -site contact person OR complete and return the attached Project Information Sheet to me. Acceptance and approval of this plan is conditioned upon your compliance with Federal and State water quality laws, regulations and rules.

Six soil test borings were performed at the project site. Individual boring logs and a boring location plan are included with this report. The purpose of this geotechnical study was to explore the general subsurface conditions at the project site and to evaluate these conditions with respect to the design and construction of earthwork, foundations, and floor slabs for the project. Our scope of services included drilling soil test borings, performing lab testing and engineering analyses, and preparing this report of our findings and recommendations. PROJECT DESCRIPTION Project information is based on our understanding of the project from our telephone conversations, our site visit and site plans received via electronic mail from Mr. Sam Jarvis on June 2, 2006. The Bridge Harbor Project consists of developing an approximate 6 acre tract of land located on the Pamlico River at the south end of the Highway 17 Bridge. We received two proposed site layouts from Mr. Jarvis. One of the layouts includes three clusters of four adjacent buildings along with common area building located near the access point to three piers. The other layout includes four separate buildings and a clubhouse with a pool. This proposed site layout also includes three piers. The size and number of buildings for the site will depend on the soil conditions encountered. We understand that three story buildings are desired. In addition, we understand that the site is subject to CAMA Regulations and that the first floor of the buildings will be required to be elevated. SITE EXPLORATION PROCEDURES In order to explore the general subsurface conditions at the project site, Terracon subcontracted Carolina Drilling to drill six soil test borings to depths of 25 to 35 feet below existing grades. The borings were advanced at the approximate locations shown on Drawing No. 2 in the Appendix. 1 Bridge Harbor Project Highway 17 South Terracon Project No. 72065051 July 13, 2006 1rerracon The borings were located in the field by Terracon personnel by measuring distances and estimating right angles relative to existing site features. The location of the borings should be considered accurate only to the degree implied by the methods used. The soil test borings were performed by a power drilling rig mounted on an all -terrain vehicle using rotary wash drilling procedures. Representative soil samples were obtained by the split -barrel sampling procedure. In the split -barrel sampling procedure, the number of blows required to advance a standard 2-inch O.D. split -barrel sampler the last 12 inches of the typical total 18-inch penetration by means of a 140-pound hammer with a free fall of 30 inches, is the standard penetration test (SPT) resistance value (N-Value) and was performed in the soil test borings at 2.5 to 5 foot intervals. These values are indicated on the boring logs at the depths of occurrence. The samples were sealed and returned to the laboratory for classification. Field logs of each boring were prepared by the drill crew. These logs included visual classifications of the materials encountered during drilling as well as the driller's interpretation of the subsurface conditions between samples. Final boring logs included with this report include visual classification,. sampling depths and penetration distance, and the standard penetration resistance values. The classification represents the geotechnical engineer's interpretation of the field logs and includes modifications based on visual observation, texture and plasticity, The descriptions of the soils indicated on the boring logs are in accordance with the enclosed General Notes and the Unified Soil Classification System. Estimated group symbols according to the Unified Soil Classification System are given on the boring logs. A brief description of this classification system is attached to this report. Conditions encountered at each boring location are indicated on the individual boring logs. The stratification boundaries on the boring logs represent the approximate location of changes in soil types; in -situ, the transition between materials may be gradual. Variations in subsurface conditions can also occur between boring locations. SITE CONDITIONS The project site is located east of the intersection of Highway 17 and Pamlico River in Washington, North Carolina. On our site visit, we observed a grassed perimeter that appeared to be the natural grade and then a larger mounded area in the middle of the site that appeared to be filled with debris, such as pieces of concrete. In addition, we observed a long narrow metal storage building, some abandoned equipment and several debris piles. 2 Bridge Harbor Project Highway 17 South Terracon Project No. 72065051 July 13,2006 lferracon The remains, of a bulk petroleum storage and distribution facility were observed on the south end of the site. SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS Regional Geology The project site is located in the Coastal Plain Physiographic Province. The Coastal Plain consists mainly of marine sediments that.were deposited during successive periods of fluctuating sea level and moving shoreline. The soils in this province consist of sands, silts, and clays with irregular deposits of shells, which are typical of those laid down in a shallow sloping sea bottom. Alluvial sands, silts, and clays are typically present near rivers and creeks. According to the 1985 Geologic Map of North Carolina, the Washington area is generally underlain by the Yorktown formation, a Tertiary deposit consisting of medium stiff to stiff, massive marine clay, layers of medium dense to dense sand with shell fragments, and partially cemented limestone. Soli Conditions Approximately 6 inches of topsoil was encountered at all boring locations. Fill materials were encountered at the mound located on the project site near boring B-6. Recent alluvial deposits were encountered in all of the borings as zones of very loose to medium dense sand and very soft to stiff clay. Pieces of tree limbs, roots, and bark were encountered as wood fragments to depths of 30 feet below the existing grade. At depths greater than 30 feet below existing grade, the borings encountered medium dense to very dense sand with limestone fragments indicating the top of the Yorktown Formation. Please note that wetlands delineation, the assessment of environmental conditions or chemical testing for the presence of contaminants in the soil or groundwater of the site were beyond the scope of the geotechnical services provided. Groundwater Conditions The use of drilling fluids in performing the borings can obscure the measurement of groundwater levels. In sandy soils, the drilling fluids typically drain to a level that corresponds to the groundwater level. Fluid levels were measured at the borings at the time of the exploration. During the exploration, fluid levels were observed at depths of 2 to 4 feet. P Bridge Harbor Project Highway 17 South Terracon Project No. 72065051 July 13, 2006 1rerracon Fluctuations in the groundwater table on the order of 1 to 2 feet are typical in the Coastal Plain, depending on variations in precipitation, evaporation and surface water runoff. Seasonal high groundwater levels are expected to occur during or just after the typically wetter months of the year (November through April). Longer monitoring in piezometers or cased holes would be required to evaluate longer -term groundwater conditions. Based on the results of the borings and our previous experience in the area, we expect shallow groundwater to be present at the site. Seismic Considerations Based on our borings and experience with the Yorktown Formation, the subsurface conditions at the project site correspond most closely with those of Site Class D as described in Section 1615.1.1 of the 2002 North Carolina State Building Code (2000 International Building Code with North Carolina Amendments). This type classifies as a "stiff soil profile", with an average standard penetration resistance (N-value) greater than or equal to 15 bpf and less than 50 bpf. Although loose sands are present at the site, we do not expect them to be subject to liquefaction due to the amount of silt and clay present within the sand and the relatively low risk of a strong seismic event in the vicinity of the site. Based on USGS data, the peak ground acceleration associated with a seismic event having a 2% probability of exceedence in 50 years is expected to be 0.06g for Washington, North Carolina. ENGINEERING RECOMMENDATIONS Geotechnical Considerations The borings generally encountered very loose to medium dense sand and very soft to stiff clay with wood fragments to depths of 30 feet below the existing grade. The 35-foot borings terminated, in very dense sand with limestone fragments. Groundwater was also encountered at the borings at very shallow depths. Based on the loose sand / soft clay in the upper portions of the subsurface profile, we recommend that the buildings be founded on 12 inch square precast concrete piles driven to depths of approximately 35 feet below existing grade. Concrete piles are recommended, instead of timber piles, to help to penetrate through the wood pieces encountered in the borings. 4 Bridge Harbor Project Highway 17 South Terracon Project No. 72065051 July 13, 2006 lrerracan Recommendations for the design and construction of foundations and the support of on - grade slabs and pavements are provided below. Site Preparation and Earthwork Site preparation should begin with stripping surface vegetation and topsoil. We expect the surface soils at the site to be wet and loose after stripping. The use of wheel -mounted construction equipment over the exposed subgrade soils should be minimized due to the risk of excessive rutting. Therefore, we recommend light -weight, track mounted equipment be used during site preparation and grading. The fill mound in the middle of the site, debris piles, the existing building and old foundations should be removed. As part of the demolition of the existing building, any existing surface and subsurface features should be removed full -depth. Existing utilities that are to be abandoned should be removed or filled with grout. The excavations resulting from removal of existing structures and utilities should be properly backfilled with compacted structural fill as described in the Earthwork section of this report. Utilities that are to remain in service should be accurately located horizontally and vertically to minimize conflict with new foundation construction. After completing stripping, the exposed subgrade should be thoroughly observed and tested. This testing should include proofrolling the subgrade. Proofrolling can be accomplished with an empty, tandem -axle dump truck with rubber tires or other equipment providing an equivalent subgrade loading. Proofrolling aids in delineating soft or disturbed areas that may exist at or near the exposed subgrade level. Proofrolling should be performed in the presence of a Terracon representative. Unstable areas observed at this time should be improved by scarification and recompaction or by undercutting and replacement with suitable compacted fill. Less undercutting will be needed if subgrade preparation is done in dryer weather. We suggest raising the site grades 2 to 3 feet to increase the separation distance from the groundwater table and improve site drainage. All fill material should consist of sand with less than 20% silt or clay, free of organics and debris. All proposed fill materials should be approved prior to their use. Structural fill placed should be spread in 8- to 10-inch thick loose lifts at a moisture content within 2 percent of the optimum moisture content of the material as determined by ASTM D 698 (standard Proctor). Each lift of fill placed within structural areas should be uniformly compacted to a dry density of at least 95 percent of the maximum dry density of the material determined according to ASTM D 698. 5 Bridge Harbor Project Highway 17 South Terracon Project No. 72065051 July 13, 2006 lferracon The geotechnical engineer's representative should perform in -place field density tests to evaluate the compaction of the structural fill and backfill placed at the site. We recommend a testing frequency of one test per lift per 2,500 square feet of fill area within the building and pavement areas. At least one test per lift per 100 lineal feet of utility trench should also be performed. Deep Foundations In consideration of CAMA regulations and the loose / soft soils present at the site, we recommend using a deep foundation system consisting of approximately 35 feet deep, 12-inch square precast concrete piles. There is a possibility of obstructions due to the presence of wood pieces in the soil subsurface. Because of this, there is a potential need to offset piles if obstructions are encountered. The piles are expected to develop capacity from a combination of skin friction and end bearing on very dense sands. We estimate that 12-inch square precast concrete piles driven to an embedment depth of approximately 35 feet will develop an allowable compressive design capacity of about 30 tons. The allowable uplift capacity would be about 20 tons. Static pile analyses were used to estimate downward axial and uplift load capacities of single vertical piles based on a factor of safety of 2.0 for download and uplift. The uplift capacities reflect the frictional resistance between the sides of a pile and the surrounding soil. We recommend that piles be spaced on -center no closer than the three times the pile butt diameter or width; a center -to -center spacing of approximately 3 feet. The minimum spacing should be maintained to prevent the pile group compression load capacity from being significantly less than the summation of individual pile capacities. This spacing restriction also serves to limit surface heave and to reduce the possibility of damaging previously installed piles. We performed an LPILE Plus analysis assuming a capacity of 30 tons per pile and a fixed head condition in a pile cap at the ground surface. A lateral load of 3 tons would produce about 1/4 inch deflection. We recommend that the pile driving rig be equipped with fixed leads, and the pile hammer should have a rated energy of at least 19,000 foot pounds per blow for concrete piles. All equipment should be subject to the review of the geotechnical engineer. We recommend that piles be driven to the dynamic driving resistance required for the recommended design capacity. The driving resistance may be determined by either the ENR formula or by a wave equation driving analysis performed by the geotechnical engineer. Driving should be 9 Bridge Harbor Project Highway 17 South Terracon Project No. 72065051 July 13,2006 1rerracan terminated immediately if refusal (i.e., 8 to 10 blows per inch) is reached to prevent damaging the piles. The installation of a pile foundation system should be in accordance with the local and state building code requirements. In addition, the installation of all piles should be monitored by the geotechnical engineer. The geotechnical engineer's representative should verify and record all aspects of the installation. In general, the representative should: 1. Be familiar with all aspects of the installation. 2. Be present continuously during driving. 3. Record the dimensions of each pile, locate, and report any obvious defects. 4. Count and record the blows for each foot of driving. 5. Record energy rating of hammer and adjust where appropriate for chamber pressure, such as in the case of a diesel hammer. 6. Have knowledge of soil conditions at the site and the minimum required penetration of each pile. 7. Be cognizant of intended support mechanisms of piles on which to base acceptance or rejection or pre -drilling, etc. 8. Have authority to hold driving when unanticipated difficulties or conditions are encountered. The amount of settlement will depend upon the variations within the subsurface soil profile and the applied load. Assuming that the piles are installed in accordance with our recommendations, it is our opinion that total settlement will be about 1/2 inch. Pavements The on -site soils are typically adequate subgrade materials for the support of pavements. Site preparation and new fill construction in the pavement areas should be performed as outlined in the "Site Preparation and Earthwork" section of this report. Because construction of pavements typically takes place near the end of construction, several months after general site grading is performed, there is a potential for the pavement subgrade to become disturbed during the course of the project due to construction traffic and weather. Because of this, we recommend the pavement areas be rough graded and then proofrolled with a loaded tandem axle dump truck a few days prior to paving. Particular attention should be given to high traffic areas that were disturbed, and to areas where backfilled trenches are located. Areas of unsuitable soils should be undercut and replaced with properly compacted fill. M Bridge Harbor Project Highway 17 South Terracon Project No. 72065051 July 13, 2006 1rerracon Assuming the pavement subgrade will consist predominately of the existing sandy soils, an estimated saturated California Bearing Ratio (CBR) of 6 was used in proportioning a flexible pavement section. Similarly, a modulus of subgrade reaction value equal to 100 pounds per cubic inch was used for design of rigid concrete pavement sections. The pavement thicknesses below were calculated based on the design catalog of the National Asphalt Pavement Association (NAPA). Traffic patterns and anticipated loading conditions were not available; however, we anticipate that traffic loads will be produced primarily by automobile traffic, waste disposal trucks and delivery trucks. Two pavement sections have been provided for construction over an approved soil subgrade. The light -duty pavement sections are for car traffic only. Heavy-duty pavement sections should be used for main drives, loading areas and areas in front of waste containers.

We note that the 2002 NCDOT Standard Specifications for asphalt materials are based on "Superpave" mixes. Asphalt materials that have been traditionally used for parking lots and driveways (Type 1-2 surface course) are covered under the 1995 NCDOT Standard Specifications. Concrete pavement should be air -entrained and have a minimum compressive strength of 4,000 psi after 28 days of laboratory curing per ASTM C-31. 9 Bridge Harbor Project Highway 17 South Terracon Project No. 72065051 July 13, 2006 lrerracon Prevention of infiltration of water into the subgrade is essential for the successful performance of any pavement. Both the subgrade and the pavement surface should be sloped to promote surface drainage away from the pavement structure. GENERAL COMMENTS Terracon should be retained to review the final design plans and specifications so comments can be made regarding interpretation, and implementation of our geotechnical recommendations in the design and specifications. Terracon also should be retained to provide testing and observation during excavation, grading, foundation and construction phases of the project. The analysis and recommendations presented in this report are based upon the data obtained from the borings performed at the indicated locations and from other information discussed in this report. This report does not reflect variations that may occur between borings, across the site, or due to the modifying effects of weather. The nature and extent of such variations may not become evident until during or after construction. If variations appear, we should be immediately notified so that further evaluation and supplemental recommendations can be provided. The scope of services for this project does not include either specifically or by implication any environmental or biological (e.g., mold, fungi, bacteria) assessment of the site or identification or prevention of pollutants, hazardous materials or conditions. If the owner is concerned about the potential for such contamination or pollution, other studies should be undertaken. This report has been prepared for the exclusive use of our client for specific application to the project discussed and has been prepared in accordance with generally accepted geotechnical engineering practices. No warranties, either express or implied, are intended or made. Site safety, excavation support, and dewatering requirements are the responsibility of others. In the event that changes in the nature, design, or location of the project as outlined in this report are planned, the conclusions and recommendations contained in this report shall not be considered valid unless Terracon reviews the changes and either verifies or modifies the conclusions of this report in writing.

DESCRIPTIVE SOIL CLASSIFICATION: Soil classification is based on the Unified Classification System. Coarse Grained Soils have more than 50% of their dry weight retained on a #200 sieve; their principal descriptors are: boulders, cobbles, gravel or sand. Fine Grained Soils have less than 50% of their dry weight retained on a #200 sieve; they are principally described as clays if they are plastic, and silts if they are slightly plastic or non -plastic. Major constituents may be added as modifiers and minor constituents may be added according to the relative proportions based on grain size. In addition to gradation, coarse -grained soils are defined on the basis of their in -place relative density and fine-grained soils on the basis of their consistency.

There is. a reported shipwreck site immediately downtiver of the existing piers. If Alternative A is selected, the proposed construction will not have an effect on that site and no archaeological investigations are necessary. If Alternative B is selected, which includes the construction of a new pier downriver of the existing piers, we recommend that a comprehensive survey be conducted by an experienced archaeologist to identify the presence and significance of submerged archaeological remains lying within the project boundaries. Potential effects on those resources should be assessed prior to the initiation of construction activities. A list of archaeological consultants who have conducted or expressed an interest in contract work in North Carolina is available at www.atch.dcr.state.nc.us/consults. The archaeologists listed, or any_other experienced archaeologist, may be contacted to conduct the recommended investigation.

(Quible), on behalf of Bridge Harbor, LLC for review by the North Carolina Division of Coastal Management (DCM), the State Clearinghouse and associated state and federal regulatory agencies. On March 4, 2009 at the NCDENR Washington Regional Offices, there was an inter- agency scoping meeting to discuss this project, and you were in attendance. The proposed project involves an open water marina and a boat dry stack facility with a boat drop structure. Prior to the scoping meeting, three conceptual marina layouts were provided for discussion purposes. After the meeting, based on agency comments and client needs for the future project scope, a new design that is similar to the concepts used at the scoping meeting was developed. I have attached a copy of the current proposed design. The project will not require any dredging, and the existing pilings to be removed will be replaced, whereas, there will be a net gain in pilings (and fish habitat opportunities) as we discussed at the scoping meeting. Please supply any information that will help unto complete the fish and shellfish resources and habitat sections of the EA, including any pertinent sampling data for the area. For a different recent project on the Pamlico River I received some general gill net survey data for all of the DMF locations in the Upper Pamlico. I will plan on using that same data for this EA unless you are able to provide any additional representative data. Along with the marina plan, I have included a USGS vicinity map. Your input is appreciated and will be used in the final document.

Morchello, PLS. An environmental assessment (EA) is currently being prepared by Quible & Associates, P.C. (Quible), on behalf of Bridge Harbor, LLC for review by the North Carolina Division of Coastal Management (DCM), the State Clearinghouse and associated state and federal regulatory agencies. On March 4, 2009 at the NCDENR Washington Regional Offices, there was an inter- agency scoping meeting to discuss this project, and you were in attendance via phone. The proposed project involves an open water marina and a boat dry stack facility with a boat drop structure. Prior to the scoping meeting, three conceptual marina layouts were provided for discussion purposes. After the meeting, based on agency comments and client needs for the future project scope, a new design that is similar to the concepts used at the scoping meeting was developed. I have attached a copy of the current proposed design. The project will not require any dredging, and the existing pilings to be removed will be replaced, whereas, there will be a net gain in pilings (and fish habitat opportunities) as we discussed at the scoping meeting. Please supply any information that will help us to complete the fish and shellfish resources and habitat sections of the EA, including any pertinent sampling data for the area. Along with the marina plan, I have included a USGS vicinity map. Your input is appreciated and will be used in the final document.
