Hunt, Jr., Governor Wayne McDevitt, Secretary A. Preston Howard, Jr., P.E., Director 1 ? • 10 ON% NC ENR NORTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENT AND NATURAL RESOURCES July 7, 1998 Beaufort County WQC 401 Project # 980473 APPROVAL of 401 Water Quality Certification Mr. Frank Credle 253 Zinkie Lane Bath, NC 27808 Dear Mr. Credle: You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions, to place fill material in 180 square feet of waters for the purpose of dredging for an open water boat access facility, as you described in your application dated May 22, 1998. After reviewing your application, we have decided that this fill is covered by General Water Quality Certification Number 3112. In addition, you should get any other federal, state or local permits before you go ahead with your project including (but not limited to) Sediment and Erosion Control, Coastal Stormwater, Non-Discharge and Water Supply Watershed regulations. Also this approval will expire when the accompanying 404 or CAMA permit expires unless otherwise specified in the General Certification. This approval is only valid for the purpose and design that you described in your application. If you change your project, you must notify us and you may be required to send us a new application for a new certification. If the property is sold, the new owner must be given a copy of the Certification and approval letter and is thereby responsible for complying with all conditions. If total wetland fills for this project (now or in the future) exceed one acre, compensatory mitigation may be required as described in 15A NCAC 2H .0506 (h). For this approval to be valid, you must follow the conditions listed in the attached certification. If you do not accept any of the conditions of this certification, you may ask for an adjudicatory hearing. You must act within 60 days of the date that you receive this letter. To ask for a hearing, send a written petition which conforms to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes to the Office of Administrative Hearings, P.O. Box 27447, Raleigh, N.C. 27611-7447. This certification and its conditions are final and binding unless you ask for a hearing. This letter completes the review of the Division of Water Quality under Section 401 of the Clean Water Act. If you have any questions, please telephone John Domey at 919-733-1786.

PROJECT SUMMARY: The applicant is proposing to provide a public boating access facility. FRANK E. CREDLE Beaufort County ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING The applicant owns a 0.92 acre lot adjacent to North Creek in the Ramsonville Community off SR 1732 in Beaufort County, North Carolina. The lot is vegetated by various upland grasses with scattered pines. A fringe of coastal wetlands is present along a portion of the shoreline near the NWL. These wetlands consist of Juncus roemerianus, Distichlis spicat ?, and Spartin patens. Located on the lot is an existing ±100' long pier with a t15' by ±15'L-platform. There are two mooring pilings existing on the east side of the pier. No sewage disposal system is located on the property, however, a septic tank system has been permitted by the Beaufort County Health Department. North Creek is classified as a Primary Nursery Area by the N.C. Division of Marine Fisheries. PROJECT PROPOSAL The applicant is proposing the following: (1) A 20' long by 12' wide concrete boat ramp of which f15' will extend beyond the NWL. Adjacent to the ramp will be a 30' long by 4' wide launching pier. (2) The construction of a 156' long by 6' wide pier with a 66' long by 4' wide T-shaped platform at the waterward end. The pier will have two 30' long by 2' wide finger piers south of the proposed T-platform. Also mooring pilings are proposed between the finger piers and the platform. When completed the pier system will have mooring spaces for six vessels. The existing pier has one fixed mooring. Upland development consists of a proposed building which is to contain two toilets. Also an existing earthen access path will be upgraded with marl to provide access to the proposed ramp and for a boat trailer parking area. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT The project as proposed should have a minimal environmental impact. No wetland vegetation will be excavated and/or filled. Secondary impacts will be those associated with increased boating activity with accompanying development within and adjacent to a PNA.
