Sumner 195 Cove Creek Road Mooresville, N.C. 28117 (704) 662-6070 September 07, 1998 North Carolina Department of Environmental, and Natural Resources Division of Water Quality Environmental Sciences Branch 4401 Reedy Creek Road Raleigh, N.C. 27607 Attn: Mr. John Dorney Re: North Shore II Subdivision off Isle of Pines Rd. (Sr 1113) Lake Norman Iredell County, N.C. Dear Mr. Dorney: The Homeowners Association of North Shore II is applying for approval from Duke Power Company to add two additional floating boat slips to an existing pier at the community docks. These two slips were previously approved but were not constructed. The slips would be added to a pier that was originally approved for eight slips but now only has six; therefore, none of the leased area will be changed. No dredging will be necessary. Attached is a map that shows the existing piers with the two proposed slips highlighted. Also enclosed you will find a copy of the F.E.R.C. order approving 54 slips. We ask that you advise us, by return mail, of any comments you may have concerning this matter. Enclosed is a copy of your original letter commenting on North Shore II. We will comply with recommendations and Duke's guidelines. Thank you for your cooperation and prompt response. Please advise if additional information is required. Sincerely, Kimberly H. Sumner Committee Chair Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources Division of Environmental Management James B. Hunt, Jr., Governor Jonathan B. Howes, Secretary A. Prestc,n Howard, Jr., P.E., Director August 18, 1993 Mr. Wade Harmon Lake Management Operations Representative Duke Power Company P.O. Box 1006 Charlotte, N.C. Dear Mr. Harmon: 1:3 E HINJ R Re: Water Quality Section comments Various dock, pier and minor dredging projects on Lake Norman Recently Mr. B.K. Barringer sent several plans to DEM, Water Quality Section for review concerning plans for docks and piers in Lake Norman specifically (Laurel Pointe Marina and East Shore II Marina). From conversations with Mooresville Regional Office and Central Office Staff in his office on 27 July 1993, I understand that Duke Power requires land owners to contact us regarding water quality concerns. Also as we discussed, DEM rarely has water quality concerns with this type of project. Therefore this letter will provide standing approval for new and repaired docks and piers in Lake Norman until this letter is recinded. In all cases you shall continue to notify the appropriate DEM Regional Office of these proposed changes. If DEM has not responded within 30 days of the date of your letter, I hereby provide approval for these projects. In addition if dredging is planned which does not require a 404 PErmit from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, then DEM does not need to be notified since no 401 Water Quality Certification would be needed. However if an individual or Nationwide Permit (such as NW Permit 16 for return water from upland diked dispos-al sites) is required, then a 401 Certification will be needed. I look forward to our meeting on September 7 in the Mooresville REegional Office to discuss these matter. Please contact me at 919-733-1786 if you have any questions. c rely, l Jo n R.

(Crescent) and Monterey Landing L.L.C., to construct private residential. marinas on Lake James and Lake Norman at four different subdivisions in North Carolina. Crescent proposes to construct slips to accommodate 26 boats at East Shore TIS, slips for 34 boats at Pine Knoll, and slips for 54 boats'at North Shore II. Monterey Landing L.L.C. proposes to construct slips to accommodate 26 boats at Monterey Landing, remove 3800 cubism feet of lake bottom to increase the water depth at the boat dock area, and to stabilize 260 linear feet of shoreline with rip rap. Marina construction would not involve fuel facilities. The four marinas would use 0.59, 0.811, 1.24, and 0.57 acres of project property (water), respectively. East Shore III is located on Lake James and the other three subdivisions are located on Lake Norman. The proposals are consistent with the approved shoreline Management ]Plan (Plan) for the prof ect2. All proposed marinas are located in areas classified by the plan for residential development which is consistent with private boat docking users. The Commission has considered the effects this and other types of development at the project in the environmental assessment (EA) associated with the Plan. EA findings indicate that,-by adhering to the EA recommendations for resource protection and existing federal, state, and local regulations and permitting requirements, environmental resources would be protected. The EA recommendations were approved and made part of the project license. See Order Issuing License, 20 FPC 360 (1958). The Catawba-W4tersee Project Shoreline Management Plan was approved by Commission Order dated February 2, 1996. An environmental assessment (EA) of the plan was prepared prior to commission approval of the plan. The final EA, issued on February 2, 1996, analyses potential environmental effects of implementing the plan, including marina development. Duke Power and the Commission will use the plan as baseline information to evaluate future development proposals and recreational needs at the project. 02/08/96 10:58 TX/RX N0.1340 P.004 0 1Q:57 V202 219 2152 FERC-OHL-DPCA ?+. DP LK MANAGEMENT 12005 -2- The Flan identifies,Lake James and Lake Norman as lakes that are not projectedto reach thei near future. r capacity for boating use in the Lake James and Lake Norman presently reacts approximately 29 and 36 percent of boating capacity on weekends, respectively. The four applications include letters of consultation with appropriate local, state, and Federal agencies, Copies of applicable permits are included with the application. Section 404 of the clean water Act certifications (Nationwide permits) were issued by the U.S. Corps of Engineers where necessary. No objections to granting the permits were identified. Ground-disturbed activities are limited to the installation of pier pilings and manor localized dredge activity and shoreline rip rap. The North Carolina State Historic Preservation officer reviewed each proposal and indicates by letters dated March 23, 1994 (Monterey), May 4, 1993 (North shore II and Pine Knoll), and June 15, 1993 (East Shore. III), that it is aware of no properties of architectural, historic or archaeological significance which would be affected by the proposals. The proposed lease contains the necessary covenants required by the Commission for the purposes of protecting and enhancing the scenic, recreational, and other environmental values of the project. The proposal will not conflict with the operation or recreational uses of the project. Environmental eff6cts of the proposed project as proposed, including those to water quality, should be negligible. The licensee's proposal should be granted.
