9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The project site is adjacent to the ocean shoreline of Fort Fisher State Historic Site located in New Hanover
County, immediately south of Kure Beach. This area of Fort Fisher is located on a peninsula which
separates the lower Cape Fear River from the Atlantic Ocean. To locate the project site from South
College Road (NC Highway 132) and Carolina Beach Road (NC Highway 421), travel south on Carolina
Beach Road. Continue over the Snows Cut bridge that crosses the AIWW towards the Town of Carolina
Beach. At the second stop light turn right onto Dow Road. Follow Dow Road to Kure Beach and at the stop
light turn right onto Fort Fisher Blvd. South. Continue travelling south on Fort Fisher Boulevard South (US
421) for approximately 3.0 miles until you reach the project site at the existing Fort Fisher State Historic Site.
The eastern portion of the site consists of a rock revetment that is located partially below the normal high
water (NHW) boundary of the Atlantic Ocean, measuring approximately 3,000 feet in length by 70 feet in
width, which was authorized in 1993 under State Permit No. 96-93 (DWQ Permit No. SW8 940822) to
protect. this historic site. Located on the western portion of the site across Fort Fisher Blvd. South are the
Fort Fisher Museum and Visitor Center with an associated parking lot (Work Area "A"). Also located on this
side of Fort Fisher Blvd. South is the preserved earthwork fortifications of Fort Fisher's Land Face and
existing concrete pathways that leads towards the Cape Fear River, which are outside the project limits.
There is an unpaved path that leads from the Visitor Center parking lot and buildings towards the eastern
side of the project site that tie into existing asphalt pathways (Work Area "B"). The pathway is along the
landward side of the revetment, which runs entirely along the same alignment as the revetment. The path
ties into two gazebos/overlooks, one that is located on the north and one located on the south end of the
rock revetment. The "Battle Acre" Monument (Work Area "C") is located on the landward side of Battle Acre
Road towards the south end of the project site that consists of an approximately 27 feet in length by 32 feet
in width at grade brick pad with the monument located in the center. The area between the existing
monument consists of grass and unimproved parking areas, which may be problematic for handicap access
to the monument. There is additional existing gravel public parking areas and the asphalt pedestrian
pathway located on the southern end of Battle Acre Road (Work Area "D).
Vegetation on the upland portion of the project site is located partially within a Maritime forest that consists
primarily of live oak (Quercus virginiana) and wild grasses. According to the DCM 1998 Erosion Rate Maps,
the erosion rates for Work Areas "A" and "B" are 5 feet/year and for Work Areas "C" and "D" are 7 feet/year .
___ (See-Sheet_1-of-5).
The Wilmington-New Hanover County CAMA 2006 LUP classifies the upland areas of the project site as
Conservation. The waters of the Atlantic Ocean are classified as SB by the NC Division of Water Quality
(DWQ). The NC Division of Marine Fisheries (DMF) has not designated this area of the Atlantic Ocean as
Primary Nursery Area and the waters adjacent to the proposed project are closed to the harvesting of
shellfish.
PROPOSED PROJECT:
The applicant proposes new grade level pathways to provide handicap accessibility to existing beach
access areas and historical monuments within the Fort Fisher State Historic Site. A new at grade concrete
pathway would be constructed along the eastern side of the Museum and Visitor Center, which measures
approximately 210 feet in length by 6 feet in width. The new walkway would be located between an existing
brick patio and concrete pad that are adjacent to the existing building. The structure would be landward of
the Ocean Hazard Areas small structure setback for this area, which is 150 feet from the first line of stable
natural vegetation. In this case, it has been determined that this line would be the seaward toe of the rock
revetment.
NC Department of Cultural Resources-Fort Fisher State Historic Site c/o Jim Steele
Page 3
The application states that the proposed walkways would be constructed over existing dirt paths (See Sheet
2 of 5, Section "A"). A new at grade concrete pathway would be constructed along the eastern side of the
parking lot of the Museum and Visitor Center, which measures approximately 40 feet in length by 6 feet in
width. The pathway would terminate onto a concrete pad, measuring approximately 6 feet in length by 10
feet in width at the existing crosswalk of Fort Fisher Blvd. South right-of-way. Located on the eastern side of
Fort Fisher Blvd. South right-of-way adjacent to the existing crosswalk would be another concrete pad,
measuring approximately 6 feet in length by 10 feet in width that would lead onto a new at grade concrete
pathway that would be constructed towards the east, which measures approximately 130 feet in length by 6
feet in width. The structure would be landward of the Ocean Hazard Areas small structure setback for this
area, which is 150 feet from the first line of stable natural vegetation. The pathway would lead onto a new at
grade slatted wooden walkway, measuring approximately 45 feet in length by 6 feet in width, which would
lead to the existing asphalt pathway. The structure would be within the Ocean Hazard Areas small structure
150 foot setback for this area, therefore, the applicant has designed the pathway with panels using 2" x 4"
raised decking with 1 " x 4" spacers between that are connected with threaded galvanized rods with counter
sunk nuts and washers. The structure would be similar to a "Hatteras Ramp" type structure that is common
along oceanfront communities to allow for emergency vehicles to access the public beach and handicap
access from parking areas to public beach accesses. The proposed walkways would also be constructed
over an existing dirt path (See Sheets 4 and 5 of 5, Section "B").
The applicant proposes to allow for handicap accessibility to the existing Battle Acre Monument from the
existing unimproved parking area along Battle Acre Road. A new at grade slatted wooden walkway,
measuring approximately 75 feet in length by 8 feet in width would lead from the existing unimproved
parking area towards the monument. The applicant also proposes to construct two (2) at grade handicap
spaces, each measuring approximately 20 feet in length by 7 feet in width on each side of the walkway.
These structures would be within the Ocean Hazard Areas small structure setback for this area, which is
210 feet so it is designed with panels using 2" x 4" raised decking with 1" x 4" spacers between that are
connected with threaded galvanized rod with counter sunk nuts and washers, aforementioned. The wooden
pathway would lead onto a new at grade concrete pathway that would continue towards the monument,
which measures approximately 32 feet in length by 8 feet in width. The concrete walkway would continue
around the existing raised monument pad a distance of approximately 164 feet in length by 6 feet in width.
The concrete portion of the walkway would be landward of the Ocean Hazard small structure 210 foot
setback for this area (See Sheet 3 of 5, Section "C").
- --Three-p)-additional-at-grade handicap parking spaces, each measuring approximately 20 feet in length-by 7
feet in width would be constructed on the southern end of the project site within the existing gravel parking
area. A new at grade slatted wooden walkway, measuring approximately 28 feet in length by 6 feet in width,
would lead to the existing asphalt pathway. The structure would be within the Ocean Hazard Areas small
structure setback for this area, which is 210 feet so it is designed with the wooden panels, aforementioned.
10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS:
The proposed project would disturb approximately 5,238 sq. ft. (0.12 acres) of highground area within
the Ocean Hazard Areas AEC. Approximately 3,640 sq. ft. of this amount would be at grade concrete
walkways, and approximately 1,598 sq. ft. of this amount would be raised wooden decking to address
the small structure setbacks. As stated, portions of the proposed structures are located within existing
dirt pedestrian pathways and unimproved parking areas.

This notice is intended to make you, the applicant, aware of the
special risks and conditions associated with development in this
area, which is subject to natural hazards such as storms, erosion
and currents. The rules of the Coastal Resources Commission
require that you receive an AEC Hazard Notice and
acknowledge that notice in writing before a permit for
development can be issued.
The Commission's rules on building standards, oceanfront
setbacks and dune alterations are designed to minimize, but not
eliminate, property loss from hazards. By granting permits, the
Coastal Resources Commission does not guarantee the safety of
the development and assumes no liability for future damage to
the development. Permits issued in the Ocean Hazard Area of
Environmental Concern include the condition that structures be
relocated or dismantled if they become imminently threatened
by changes in shoreline configuration. The structure(s) must be
relocated or dismantled within two (2) years of becoming
imminently threatened, and in any case upon its collapse or
subsidence.
SPECIAL NOTE: This hazard notice is required for
development in areas subject to sudden and massive storms and
erosion. Permits issued for development in this area expire on
December 31 of the third year following the year in which the
permit was issued. Shortly before work begins on the project
site, the Local Permit Officer must be contacted to determine the
vegetation line and setback distance at your site. If the property
has seen little change since the time of permit issuance, and the
proposed development can still meet the setback requirement,
the LPO will inform you that you may begin work. Substantial
progress on the project must be made within 60 days of this
setback determination, or the setback must be re-measured. Also,
the occurrence of a major shoreline change as the result of a
storm within the 60-day period will necessitate re-measurement
of the setback. It is important that you check with the LPO
before the permit expires for official approval to continue the
work after the permit has expired. Generally, if foundation
pilings have been placed and substantial progress is continuing,
permit renewal can be authorized. It is unlawful to continue
work after permit expiration.
The best available information, as accepted by the Coastal
Resources Commission, indicates that the annual long-term
average oceaan,erosion rate for the area where your property is
located is feet per year.
The rate was established by careful analysis of aerial
photographs of the coastline taken over the past 50 years.
Studies also indicate that the shoreline could move as much as
CC' feet landward in a major storm.
Th?_ Aond_waters-inamajonstormare_ predicted to be about
feet deep in this area.
Preferred oceanfront protection measures are beach nourishment
and relocation of threatened structures. Hard erosion control
structures such as bulkheads, seawalls, revetments, groins, jetties
and breakwaters are prohibited. Temporary sand bags may be
authorized under certain conditions.
The applicant must acknowledge this information and
requirements by signing this notice in the space below. Without
the proper signature, the application will not be complete.

BEFORE YOU BUILD
Setting Back for Safety: A Guide to Wise Development Along the Oceanfront
When you build along the oceanfront, you take a calculated risk.
Natural forces of water and wind collide with tons of force, even
on calm days.
Man-made structures cannot be guaranteed to survive the force
of a hurricane. Long-term erosion (or barrier island migration)
may take from two to ten feet of the beach each year, and,
sooner or later, will threaten oceanfront structures. These are the
facts of life for oceanfront property owners.
The Reasons
The beachfront is an ever-changing landform. The beach and
the dunes are natural "shock absorbers," taking the beating of the
wind and waves and protecting the inland areas. By
incorporating building setbacks into the regulations, you have a
good chance of enjoying the full life of the structure. At first, it
seems very inviting to build your dream house as close to the
beach as possible, but in five years you could find the dream has
become a nightmare as high tides and storm tides threaten your
investment.
The Coastal Resources Commission (CRC) has adopted rules for
building along the oceanfront. The rules are intended to avoid an
unreasonable risk to life and property, and to limit public and
private losses from storm and long-term erosion. These rules
lessen but do not eliminate the element of risk in oceanfront
development.
As you consider building along the oceanfront, the CRC wants
you to understand the rules and the risks. With this knowledge,
you can make a more informed decision about where and how to
build in the coastal area.
The Rules
When you build along the oceanfront, coastal management rules
require that the structure be sited to fit safely into the beach
environment.
Structures along the oceanfront, less than 5,000 square feet in
size, must be behind the frontal dune, landward of the crest of
the primary dune, and set back from the first line of stable
natural vegetation a distance equal to 30 times the annual
erosion rate (a minimum of 60 feet). The setback calculation
increases as the size of the structure increases [15A NCAC
7H.0306(a)(2)]. For example: A structure between 5,000 and
10,000 square feet would require a setback from the first line of
stable, natural vegetation to a distance equal to 60 times the
annual erosion rate (a minimum of 120 feet). The graduated
setback continues to increase through structure sizes greater than
100,000-square-feet. -- --- --
The Exception
The Coastal Resources Commission recognized that these rules,
initially passed in June 1979, might prove a hardship for some
property owners. Therefore, they established an exception for
lots that cannot meet the setback requirement. The exception -
allows buildings in front of the current setback, if the following
conditions apply:
1) the lot must have been platted as of June 1, 1979, and is
not capable of being enlarged by combining with
adjoining land under the same ownership;
2) development must be constructed as far back on the
property as possible and in no case less than 60 feet
landward of the vegetation line;
3) no development can take place on the frontal dune;
4) special construction standards on piling depth and
square footage must be met; and
5) all other CAMA, state and local regulations must be
met.
The exception is not available in the Inlet Hazard Area,
To determine eligibility for the exception the Local Permit
Officer will make these measurements and observations:
required setback from vegetation line
exception setback (maximum feasible)
rear property line setback
max. allowable square footage on lowest floor

After the storm, the house on the dune will be gone. The other house has a much better chance of survival.
