Dare,
Navigation Branch has revie- wed the proposed buoy locations and it appears they are located outside the Federal navigation
channels of S- ansboro Basin and entrance channel, as -well as outside the setback limit. Since the buoys would be placed
outside our Federal navigation jurisdiction, USACE Navigation Branch -would not have any objection to the placement of these
items, as long as any proposed no -wake zone is established land-ward (north-west direction) of their locations. All no -wake zones
in NC are officially established and enforced b-,- the NC Wildlife Resource Commission. Please contact Betsv Foard for the
application process.
No Wake Zones and other boating restriction markers on Federal navigation channels -will not be permitted unless the
Wilmington District Commander determines that substantial safety concerns exist and that the restriction -will remedy those
concerns ,without significant impacts to the "navigable capacity" of the Federal Channel. Other means of addressing such safety
concerns -will have to be considered before a no -wake zone can be considered.
