9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant's property is located at 206 Sunset Boulevard N adjacent to Mary's Creek and the Atlantic
Intracoastal Waterway (AIWW) in the Town of Sunset Beach, Brunswick County. To locate the project
site from the Wilmington Regional Office (WiRO), travel southwest from Wilmington to Sunset Beach on
US 74 W (Martin Luther King Jr Pkwy) & US 17 S for approximately 45 miles until you reach Ocean Isle
Beach Road SW on your left. Travel about 2 miles down Ocean Isle Beach Road SW and then turn left
at the round -about onto Old Georgetown Road SW. Go down Old Georgetown Road SW for about 3
miles until you reach Seaside Road SW (NC 179 NC 904) and make another left. Then travel almost a
mile and a half down Seaside Road SW (NC 179 NC 904) until you meet Sunset Boulevard N and make
a right. Once you turn right onto Sunset Boulevard N go down that road until you encounter your second
traffic circle. Go straight through the round -about (2ND exit) continuing down Sunset Boulevard N and
head down towards the Wildlife Resources Commission (WRC) boat ramp under the Sunse t Beach
Bridge. Make a U-turn at the boat ramp on W Canal Avenue and the destination will be on your right.
,The project site is bordered by the waters of Mary's Creek to the north and east, the AIWW to the south,
and Sunset Boulevard to the west.
The project site is comprised of one parcel totaling approximately 6.22 acres (+/-227,383 sq, ft.) in size.
The site is vegetated primarily with lawn grasses and mature oak trees. The elevation of the tract is
approximately 13' above mean sea level. A portion of the shoreline of the site adjacent to Mary's Creek
has been stabilized with a bulkhead and rip rap. Coastal wetland vegetation is present water ward of the
existing bulkhead and rip rap and is approximately 5-10' in width, - The remainder of the shoreline along
Mary's Creek is natural with an approximate 3' change in elevation from the high ground to the coastal
wetlands, The shoreline in this area is stabilized with vegetation. Coastal wetland vegetation in this area
ranges in width from 10-20' and consists primarily of Smooth Cord Grass (Spartina alterniflora) and Salt
Meadow Hay (Spartina patens). The shoreline along the AIWVV is void of wetland vegetation and an
approximate Terosion escarpment is present due to wave wash.
The Sunset Beach Town Park project received a Sedimentation and Erosion Control permit (BRUNS
2015-011) from the Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources (DEMLR). The total project area is
currently covered by an active Storm Water Permit No. SW8 150041 last modified May 24, 2018. The
Sunset Beach Town Park project received a CAMA Major Permit No. 52-15 on April 23, 2015 to develop
the uplands of the project site to a public park. Then the Sunset Beach Town Park project received a
Minor Modification to CAMA Major Permit No. 52-15 on June 29, 2017 to develop the water dependent
structures at the public park and to stabilize the shoreline next to the AIWW with rip rap. On June 13,
2018 the Sunset Beach Town Park project received another Minor Modification to the CAMA Major Permit
No. 52-15 to extend the shoreline stabilization with rip rap revetment and a river rock swale which
eliminated the previously authorized Hatteras Ramp. The DWR has assigned the proposed project DWR
Project No. 14-1322. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers assigned the proposed project COE Action Id.
No. SAW-2015-00113.
The waters of the AIWW are classified as SA-HQW by the North Carolina Division of Water Resources
and are closed to the harvest of shellfish. This area of AIWW is designated as Primary Nursery Area
(PNA). The entire property lies within the jurisdictional limits of the Town of Sunset Beach.

10. PROPOSED PROJECT
The applicant is proposing a major modification to existing State Permit No. 52-15 by constructing a
living shoreline. The applicant states that they are proposing to create a living shoreline along the
southeast (SE) corner of the property at the confluence of Mary's Creek and the AIWW for erosion
control and prevention, water quality and environment improvement, and to enhance and restore lost
oyster reef, fish habitat and saltmarsh. According to the applicant, the proposed living shoreline site
would be located outside of the existing channels and would not encroach into coastal wetlands. As
proposed, the living shoreline stabilization project involves three objectives by creating three (3)
curvilinear oyster sills, installing twelve (12) reef domes, and restoring saltmarsh habitat. -The applicant
proposes to install a temporary access ramp using marsh/vegetation protection mats in order to protect
the coastal wetlands when transporting project supplies, shell and marl bags, reef balls, and marsh
vegetation seedlings to the proposed living shoreline project area (see Sheet 1 of 2).
The applicant is proposing to install one (1) curvilinear 6'wide by 60' long and approximately 2' high
oyster shell and marl bag sill in the intertidal areas running parallel to the shoreline (see Sheet 1 of 2).
Approximately 670 bushels of cured oyster shell and 330 bushels of marine limestone (marl) would be
used to create approximately 1000 bags of shell and marl for the oyster sill. Oyster shell and mart bags
would be created using aquaculture mesh bags and PVC bagging frames. Each bag would be
approximately 6" wide, 8" high, and 2' long. The proposed bags would be filled wit ' h cured oyster shell
and #4 marine limestone (based on Division of Marine Fisheries use and recommendations). The
individual bags would be carried out to the intertidal over the marsh protection mats and placed in the
substrate perpendicular to the shoreline to prevent rolling from boat wakes and movement from strong
tidal or weather related currents. The oyster shell and marl sill would consist of three layers of bags
laid end to end and nestled together to create an interlocking structure. The first bottom layer of bags
would be marl and buried to half of the bag height to help prevent rolling or movement. The top two
layers would be oyster shell bags (see Sheet 2 of 2). Curved rebar (3/8" thick and 24" long) would be
pounded through the bags and into the substrate at 20' intervals if needed to help hold the bags in
place. The proposed oyster shell and marl bag sill would be located approximately 40'waterward from
the existing rip rap revetment in areas where water depths are approximately -2' at Mean High Water
(MHW). The applicant proposes a maximum height of 1.5' from the substrate for the oyster shell and
marl bag sill.
The applicant is also proposing to install two (2) curvilinear 8'wide by 50' long and approximately 2'
high oyster dome sills (see Sheet 1 of 2). The applicant proposes to construct the oyster dome sills
using two types of reef balls' Mini Bay Reef Balls measuring 17' tall, 2'5" in diameter, and weighing
300 pounds-(Ibs.) would have approximately 29 square feet (sq. ft.) of surface area individually. Bay
Ball Module Reef Balls measuring 2'tall, 3' in diameter, and weighing 500 Ibs. would have
approximately 40 sq. ft. of surface area individually (see Sheet 2 of 2). The oyster dome sills would be
constructed using two rows of reef balls parallel to the shoreline, Each oyster dome sill would have a
waterward row consisting of approximately 20 Bay Ball Module Reef Bails and a landward row of
approximately 24 Mini Bay Reef Balls with 44' of separation between each reef ball. A total of
approximately 40 Bay Ball Module Reef Balls and 48 Mini Bay Reef Balls would be installed to create
the two oyster dome reef sills and would be secured by pounding curved rebar into the substrate. The
proposed oyster dome sills would be located approximately 50'waterward of the existing rip rap
revetment in areas where water depths are approximately -2'atMHW. The applicant proposes a
maximum height of 2' from the substrate for the oyster dome sills.
Sunset Beach Town Park
Page 4
The applicant is also proposing to install three (3) Lo-Pro Reef Balls at four (4) locations (total of 12 Lo-
Pro Reef Balls proposed) along the living shoreline at the ends and in between the breaks of the three
(3) proposed oyster sills (see Sheet 1 of 2). The applicant states that the Lo-Pro Reef Balls at these
locations would help break up any longshore current or wake created by displacement from passing
vessels and to assist with erosion control and prevention along the shoreline of the park. Lo-Pro Reef
Balls measuring VY tall, 2' in diameter, and weighing 200 lbs. would have approximately 17 sq. ft. of
surface area individually (see Sheet 2 of 2). The proposed oyster sills would have a minimum of
approximately 5' of open area (breaks) left in between each sill to allow for fish passage and inter -reef
fisheries habitat. The four proposed Lo-Pro Reef Ball installations would be located approximately 40'
waterward of the existing rip rap revetment in areas where water depths are approximately -I' at MHW.
The applicant proposes that each Lo-Pro Reef Ball installation would consist of three reef balls placed
in an offset manner located landward of the proposed oyster sills. A total of approximately 12 Lo-Pro
Reef Balls would be installed for the living shoreline project. The Lo-Pro Reef Balls would be secured
and held in place by pounding curved rebar into the substrate. All reef balls would be transported to the
living shoreline project area using loading equipment (Bobcat/Srnall Excavator) to carry the domes
down the temporary access ramp of marsh protection mats. The applicant states that the proposed
reef balls would provide fish habitat and a substrate for oyster larvae recruitment and settlement
providing a foundation for future oyster growth.
The applicant is also proposing to enhance the coastal wetlands along the shoreline of the park through
saltmarsh restoration, The applicant proposes to restore the lost coastal saltmarsh habitat due to
erosion by planting saltmarsh vegetation seedlings between Normal High Water (NHW) and the water
ward extent of the growing range. The proposed saltmarsh restoration would be located landward of
the proposed oyster sills and reef balls and be approximately 200' long with an average width of 25'
and a maximum width of 35'. The applicant proposes the area would be stabilized with the planting of
approximately 5,000 Smooth Cordgrass (Spartina altemiflora) seedlings planted on 12" centers to
enhance the restoration of the saltmarsh. Some high marsh seedlings, Saltmeadow Hay (Spartina
patens) would be planted as needed in any high marsh areas.
The applicant is� also proposing to install warning signs on posts along the living shoreline to make the
public aware of the structures. The applicant proposes to construct the warning signs out of 2" PVC
posts marked with reflective tape pounded into the substrate every 20' along the living shoreline
structures. Warning signswould be placed on every other post.
11. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS
The proposed living shoreline would incorporate approximately 1,364 ft2 of Estuarine Waters and Public
Trust Areas within Mary's Creek and the AlWW- The proposed living shoreline would extend along the
shoreline in three locations, measuring approximately 180' in total length. The living shoreline
structures would be located in water depths of approximately -Zat MHW and would not result in any
Coastal Wetland impacts due to wetland protection mats being utilized during construction. The
proposed living shoreline would not encroach into either channel of Mary's Creek or the AlWW. Minor
increases in turbidity should be expected during construction.

The proposed project provides an opportunity to protect, restore and create some additional saltmarsh and oyster habitat
along the shoreline of Sunset Beach Town Park off the Intracoastal Waterway. Saltmarsh habitat along the shoreline at
Sunset Beach town park continues to be lost and natural erosion is being compounded through strong erosive forces from
boat wakes from the nearby Atlantic Intracoastal Water Way and storms. Oyster habitat is under increasing pressure from
harvest and water quality declines. The purpose of the proposed project is to protect, create and restore saltmarsh and
oyster habitat along 200' of the estuarine shoreline of Sunset Beach town park. The goals of the project are to provide
substrate for the attachment of oyster larvae and oyster reef development in those traditionally productive waters, reduce
erosion and the loss of saltmarsh habitat along the shoreline of Morris Landing, and provide valuable habitat for finfish,
shellfish and waterfowl.
c. Describe the proposed construction methodology, types of construction equipment to be used during construction, the number of each type

All the project supplies, shell and marl bags, and oyster dome will be mobilized and stockpiled in the existing upland area of
the park. Temporary construction access ramp will be established in the project area to enable equipment and people to
move materials from the upland and place them in the project footprint. MarshNegetation protection mats will be used to
protect the substrate and vegetation.

d. List all development activities you propose.
Creation of Oyster Shell and Marl Bags
Student and community volunteers will create the bags at Waterway Park using aquaculture mesh bags and PVC bagging
frames. The bags are filled with cured oyster shell and #4 marine limestone marl (based on NCDMF use and
recommendation). The bags will be carded by the volunteers and placed in the project area according to the approved plan.
Oyster Shellbag & Marlbag Reef/Sill
The reef/sill will be placed in the intertidal along the shoreline, to enhance and restore lost oyster reef and fish habitat in this
area. The reef/sill will also provide a buffer for the eroding shoreline and saltmarsh from waves and boat wakes.
Oyster shell and granite/limestone marl bags will be emplaced by volunteers into (1) low profile oyster shell and mad bag
reef/sill that is 6'wide x 60' long x 2' high along a total of 70 feet of intertidal estuarine shoreline.
The reef/sill will be constructed in a curvilinear manner, but will run parallel along the shoreline.
The reef/sill will be constructed of one layer of mad bags on the bottom and then two layers of oyster shell bags on top of the
marl bags. Approximately 1,000 bushels of cured oyster shell and 500 bushels of marine limestone (marl) will be used to
create the approximately 1,500 bags of shell and marl needed for the two sills.
Each bag will be approximately 2 ft. long, 6 in. wide and 8 in. high. The bags will be placed in the water perpendicular to the
shoreline to avoid rolling. The first two layers of reefs/sills will be formed by 4 bags laid end to end, The third (top) layer will
be comprised of three bags laid end to end. The bags will be nestled together to help form an interlocking structure. If
needed, at 20' intervals, pieces of curved rebar (24" long x 3/8" thick) will be pounded through the bags and into the
substrate to help hold them in place.
Oyster Dorne Reef
The oyster dome reefs/sills will be placed in the intertidal and shallow subtidal areas along the shoreline, to enhance and
restore lost oyster reef and fishery habitat in this area. The reefs/sills will also provide a buffer for the eroding shoreline and
saltmarsh from waves and boat wakes. The oyster domes will also provide a suitable high relief substrate for oyster larva
recruitment and settlement. The exterior surface area and interior area of the oyster domes also provide valuable fish habitat
for foraging and refuge.
The oyster dome reefs/sills will be constructed using two types of oyster domes:
- Mini -Bay Reef Ball: 17' tall, 2'5" in diameter; surface area of 29 sq� ft.; weighs 300 lbs.
- Bay Ball Module Reef Ball: 2' tall: 3' in diameter; surface area of 40 sq. ft.; weighs 500 lbs.
The oyster dome reefs/sills will be constructed using two rows of oyster domes parallel to the shoreline. Each oyster dome
reef/sill will have:
Channel -ward row: Approximately 20 Bay Ball Module Reef Balls placed in a row along the channel side of the sill, with 4-6"
of separation between them.
Land -ward row: Behind the row of Bay Balls, a second row of approximately 24 Mini -Bay Reef Balls will be placed with 4-6"
of separation between them
In total, approximately 40 Bay Ball Module Reef Balls and 48 Mini -Bay Reef Balls will be used to in 2 parallel rows to create the
(2) low profile oyster dome reef/sills that will be each 8'wide x 50' long x 2' high along a total of 110 feet of interWal
estuarine shoreline.
(3) Lo-pro oyster domes will be placed in an offset manner at the terminus of the southern oyster dome sill to help break up any
longshore current created by displacement from passing vessels. An additional (3) Lo-pro oyster domes will be placed in an
offset manner at the terminus of the northern oyster shellbag and granitelmarl bag sill to help break up any longshore current
created by displacement from passing vessels.
Fish Passage/Breaks:
Approximately 5'of open area will be left between the proposed reefs/sills; and each of the sills/reefs will be offset to allowfor
fish passage and inter -reef fisheries habitat. Two small oyster dome sections (6'X2'X2') will be placed in offset manner
between the still structures to prevent erosion through the open water gaps left for fish passage.
The oyster domes will be transported to the stockpile area in the park by truck and offloaded. During construction, loading
equipment (Bob-cat/Small excavator) will carry the domes down the temporary construction access ramp and place them in
the oyster reef/sill foot print. The reef balls will be secured and held in place by curved re -bar pounded into the substrate.
Coastal Saltmarsh Restoration
The saltmarsh in the proposed project area has eroded over the years and saltmarsh habitat has been lost. Current conditions
at the project site include areas of marsh scarps, undercutting of the marsh and eroded substrate. The purpose of the
saltmarsh restoration component of the project is to restore eroded saltmarsh habitat.
This porfion of the project will be located between the NHW line within the existing and eroding saltmarsh and the channel ward
extent of the growing range, The saltmarsh restoration area will be approximately 200' long with a maximum width of 35' and
an average width of 25'. The goal is to restore lost saltmarsh habitat. The area will be stabilized with the installation of
approximately 5,000 Spartina alterniflora (Smooth Cordgrass) planted on 12" centers to enhance th t � VWthe
saltmarsh. Some high marsh plant seedlings, Spartina patens (Saltmeadow Hay) will be installed apad"I high
marsh zones.

Sunset Beach, North Carolina
East Coast Engineering & Surveying, P.C.
October 3, 2018
CAMA MAJOR PERMIT 52-15 MODIFICATION
P. C.
Sunset Beach Town Park is a Town owned Park located at 206 Sunset Blvd. N at the
intersection of NC Highway 179 Business and Sunset Blvd. N in Sunset Beach, North
Carolina. The Tax ID number for the property is 256GA1010. The total project area is 5.22
acres, and is currently covered by an active 12% low density stormwater permit # SW8
150041 last modified May 24, 2018. The latest modification to the CAMA major permit #52-
15 was June 13, 2018 to update existing and proposed shoreline rip rap revetment.
The purpose of the modified plan is to show proposed locations of oyster sills along the
shoreline and restore/enhance saltmarsh habitat through a Minor Modification to the CAMA
Major Permit 52-15 issued on June 13, 2018.
The Coastal Wetland Line was updated and marked on November 22, 2017 along the full
length of the proposed living shoreline areas by Land Management Group, Wilmington, NC.
This updated Coastal Wetland Line is reflected on the modified plan. The proposed living
shoreline sills will not encroach into and will be placed completely waterward of the edge of
coastal marsh grass.
Specific project objectives include:
- Create (1) low profile oyster shellbag and marl/granite bag curvilinear reef/sill that is
6' wide x 60' long x 2' high
- Create (2) low profile oyster dome reef/sills that are each 8' wide x 50' long x 2' high
using Mini -Bay Reef Balls and Bay Ball Module domes
- Restore and enhance saltmarsh habitat with the placement and installation of marsh
vegetation seedlings in the area behind the oyster/marl bag, oyster dome reefs/sill with
an average width of 25' RECEIVED

Restoration Methods and Techniques:
Access to the Shoreline Project Area
All the project supplies, shell and marl bags, and oyster dome will be mobilized and stockpiled
in the existing upland area of the park. Temporary construction access ramp will be
established in the project area to enable equipment and people to move materials from the
upland and place them in the project footprint. MarshNegetation protection mats will be used
to protect the substrate and vegetation,

Creation of Oyster Shell and Marl Bags.
Student and community volunteers will create the bags at Waterway Park using aquaculture
mesh bags and PVC bagging frames. The bags are filled with cured oyster shell and #4 marine
limestone marl (based on NCDMF use and recommendation). The bags will be carried by the
volunteers and placed in the project area according to the approved plan.
Oyster Shellbag &. Marlb.ag Reef/Sill
The reef/sill will be placed in the intertidal along the shoreline, to enhance and restore lost
oyster reef and fish habitat in this area. The reef/sill will also provide a buffer for the eroding
shoreline and saltmarsh from waves and boat wakes.
Oyster shell and granite/limestone marl bags will be emplaced by volunteers into (1) low
profile oyster shell and marl bag reef/sill that is 6' wide x 60' long x 2' high along a total of 70
feet of intertidal estuarine shoreline.
The reef/sill will be constructed in a curvilinear manner, but will run parallel along the
shoreline.
The reef/sill will be constructed of one layer of marl bag's on the bottom and then two layers of
oyster shell bags on top of the marl bags. Approximately 670 bushels of cured oyster shell and
330 bushels of marine limestone (marl) will be used to create the approximately 1,000 bags of
shell and marl needed for the sill.
Each bag will be approximately 2 ft. long, 6 in. wide and 8 in. high. The bags will be placed in
the water perpendicular to the shoreline to avoid rolling. The first two layers of reefs/sills will
be formed by three bags laid end to end, The third (top) layer will be comprised of two bags
laid end to end. The bags will be nestled together to help form an interlocking structure. If
needed, at 20' intervals, pieces of curved rebar (24" long x 3/8" thick) will be pounded
through the bags and into the substrate to help hold them in place.
Oy�tcr. Dome Reef
The oyster dome reefs/sills will be placed in the intertidal and shallow subtidal areas along the
shoreline, to enhance and restore lost oyster reef and fishery habitat in this area. The reefs/sills
will also provide a buffer for the eroding shoreline and saltmarsh from waves and boat wakes,
The oyster domes will also provide a suitable high relief substrate for oyster larva recruitment
and settlement. The exterior surface area and interior area of the oyster dorPC9QFJ)fiWide

FIRM LICENSE NUMBER: C-3014 DCM 0LM1,'11GT0N, NQ
The oyster dome reefs/sills will be constructed using two types of oyster domes:
- Mini -Bay Reef Ball: 17' tall; 2'5" in diameter; surface area of 29 sq. ft.; weighs 300
lbs.
- Bay Ball Module Reef Ball: 2' tall; 3' in diameter; surface area of 40 sq. ft.; weighs
500 lbs.
The oyster dome reefs/sills will be constructed using two rows of oyster domes parallel to the
shoreline. Each oyster dome reef/sill will have:
- Channel -ward row: Approximately 20 Bay Ball Module Reef Balls placed in a row
along the channel side of the sill, with 4-6" of separation between them.
- Land -ward row: Behind the row of Bay Balls, a second row of approximately 24 Mini -
Bay Reef Balls will be placed with 4-6" of separation between them
In total, approximately 40 Bay Ball Module Reef Balls and 48 Mini -Bay Reef Balls will be
used to in 2 parallel rows to create the (2) low profile oyster dome reef'sills that will be each
8' wide x 50' long x 2' high along a total of 110 feet of intertidal estuarine shoreline.
(3) Lo-pro oyster domes will be placed in an offset manner at the terminus of the southern
oyster dome sill to help break up any longshore current created by displacement from passing
vessels. An additional (3) Lo-pro oyster domes will be placed in an offset manner at the
terminus of the northern oyster shellbag and gramte/marl bag sill to help break up any
longshore current created by displacement from passing vessels.
Fish Passage/Breaks:
Approximately 5' of open area will be left between the proposed reefs/sills; and each of the
sills/reefs will be offset to allow for fish passage and inter -reef fisheries habitat. Two small
oyster dome sections (6'X2'X2') will be placed in offset manner between the still structures to
prevent erosion through the open water gaps left for fish passage.
The oyster domes will be transported to the stockpile area in the park by truck and offloaded.
During construction, loading equipment (Bob-cat/Small excavator) will carry the domes down
the temporary construction access ramp and place them in the oyster reeVsill foot print. The
reef balls will be secured and held in place by curved re -bar pounded into the substrate.
Oyster domes have been utilized extensively in other states including Florida and Maryland
for Living Shoreline projects. In North Carolina, oyster domes have been used at the Carteret
Community College Living Shoreline Project, Morris Landing Clean Water Preserve Living
Shoreline Projects and at other sites. The domes are being utilized in this proposed project to
provide fish habitat and a substrate for oyster recruitment and settlement. With the diminishing
supplies of oyster shells available for habitat restoration and fishery enhancement it seems
prudent to test and evaluate oyster domes in North Carolina waters. The proposed project is a
suitable place to further evaluate the oyster domes. Photos below, from other project sites,
show the type of placement of and oyster recruitment on oyster domes that will be utilized in
the project.

Structure Markin-g/paging
To make the public aware of the living shoreline structures PVC posts will be installed every
20' along each structure. The 2" PVC posts will pounded into the substrate and marked with
reflective tape. Warning signs will be placed on every other post.
Coastal Saltmarsh Restoration
The saltmarsh in the proposed project area has eroded over the years and saltmarsh habitat has
been lost. Current conditions at the project site include areas of marsh scarps, undercutting of
the marsh and eroded substrate. The purpose of the saltmarsh restoration component of the
project is to restore eroded saltmarsh habitat.
This portion of the project will be located between the NHW line within the existing and
eroding saltmarsh and the channel ward extent of the growing range. The saltmarsh
restoration area will be approximately 200' long with a maximum width of 35' and an average
width of 25'. The goal is to restore lost saltmarsh habitat. The area will be stabilized with the
installation of approximately 5,000 Spartina alterruflora (Smooth Cordgrass) planted on 12"
centers to enhance the restoration of the saltmarsh. Some high niarsh plant seedlings, Spartina
patens (Saltmeadow Hay) will be installed as needed in any high marsh zones.
Proffle Transects, Vegetation and Oyster Monitoring Plan
Prior to the construction of these reefs/sills and saltmarsh habitat pro -monitoring of salt marsh
and any existing oyster reef habitat will be performed in the areas of the proposed locations of
the reefs/sills and landward towards the existing saltmarsh. These data will represent baseline
information on existing salt marsh and oyster habitat. Pre -monitoring of the existing oyster
habitat and vegetation landward of the proposed location of the new projects will be
performed in the winter/spring 2018 following the below protocol:
Three survey transcets will be established landward of the proposed oyster shell/marl bag and
reef ball sill/reef. Transects will -run perpendicular to the shoreline and will be evenly spaced
such as to cover the length of the footprints of the reefs/sills and the area landward of the
reefs/sills. Transects will begin at the upland/shrub zone, and extend channel ward beyond the
footprint of the reefsills and oyster dome reef. RECEIVED

Also along each transect, 0.5 m PVC quadrats will be sampled every 10 feet for plant and
animal species presence/absence, plant and animal species density and abundances, and stem
heights of the three tallest plant stems of each plant species observed within the quadrat.
The created oyster reefs will be monitored for oyster abundance, sizes, as well as other
organisms found within the reef areas. Digital pictures will also be taken of each quadrat as
well as of each transect facing landward.
Monitoring will be repeated annually for a period of three years, to monitor the changes to the
shoreline profiles, fauna and flora.

Tyler,
We will make the necessary revisions to clear up any confusion between what has been approved under the previous
permit and what is proposed under this modification.
The proposed dredge channel is to be dredged by Moffat & Nichol and I will add a note to the plan stating such. This was
previously labeled to show any potential conflict with a sloughing buffer from the box cut but we have since moved our
proposed sills out of this area.
There are no areas that are to be paved with permeable pavers, but I will correct this outdated legend.
Thanks for your detailed comments,

Good Afternoon Mr. Starling,
This is Tyler McGuire with the Division of Coastal Management and I have reviewed your Modification Application to
CAMA Major Permit 52-15 located at Sunset Beach Town Park. I have attached copies of the information you provided
in your Modification Application with MM �� and/or ��
The Rip -Rap Revetment that was approved by the Minor Modification on June 13', 2018 that is labeled as "Proposed" is
causing confusion with what is being proposed under this Modification Application (Proposed Oyster Sills). I would just
remove the words "Proposed" (highlighted in pink) from those two Rip Rap Revetment descriptions on the work
plats. The Oyster Sill descriptions on the work plats that are highlighted in green I would add the words "Proposed" to
help clear up this confusion between what was approved under the Minor Modification and what's being proposed
under this Modification Application. Also, either label the T-head Pier that I have highlighted in green as "Existing Pier"
or hatch it with "Existing Elevated Wooden Boardwalk" symbols.
Finally, I am a little confused by the "Proposed Dredge Channel" that I have highlighted in yellow from the Atlantic
Intracoastal Waterway back to Mary's Creek. Do you plan on dredging that channel under this Modification
Application? if so, we will need that proposed dredging information included and detailed in the Submittal, Narrative,
and on the Work Plats. Also, where do you plan on paving Permeable Paver Walkway (Gazebo) that is included in your
Legend? I don't see this symbol anywhere on the work plats.
On the Project Submittal and Narrative, the information highlighted in green are minor errors or typos. Please correct
those as well.
if you have any questions or concerns don't hesitate to send me an email or give me a call.
Thank You,

FROM: Tara MacPherson
District Manager, Wilm' gton
DATE: October 12, 2021
SUBJECT: Modification Request
State Permit No. 52-15
Town of Sunset Beach
Brunswick County
Mr, Jackson Starling, acting agent for the Town of Sunset Beach, has submitted a request to modify State
Permit No. 52-15, which was originally issued to the Town of Sunset Beach on April 23, 2015 for development
of an existing Town Park at 206 Sunset Boulevard North, adjacent to the AlWW. Minor modifications to this
permit were issued on June 29, 2017 and June 13, 2018 for water dependent structures and shoreline
stabilization. A Major modification was issued on December 20, 2018 for development of a Living Shoreline.
State Permit No. 52-15 is due to expire on December 31, 2021.
The permittee is requesting authorization to construct two additional oyster stills and to install Reef ball/domes
along the shoreline for salt marsh enhancement and to provide oyster habitat (see Sheets 1 and 2 of 2). An
oyster dome sill measuring 36 ft. long by 8 ft. wide would be installed south of the existing sills along the
same shoreline. The sill is proposed to be 2 ft. high and would be constructed using Mini -Bay Reef Balls and
Bay Ball Module Domes that are 2-3 ft. diameter. According to f he proposal approximately 10 Say Balls and
Mini- I I Reef Balls would be installed in 2 parallel rows approximately 42 ft. below Normal High Water. The
second oyster sill oyster sill, measuring 60 ft, long by 6 ft. wide, would be installed further to the south. The
sill would be 2 ft. high and would be constructed with one layer of bagged marl base and three layers of
bagged oyster shell, The bags are approximately 2 ft. x 6 ft. and are 8" high and would be installed
approximately 36 ft. below Normal High Water.
Finally, three Lo-pro oyster domes, measuring 6 ft. long by 2 ft. wide by 2 ft. high would be offset at the
terminus of the oyster sill to prevent displacement from currents and passing vessels. The application
indicated that 5 ft, of open area would be left between the oyster dome sill and the oyster bag sill to allow for
fish passage. The Lo-pro oyster domes would also be offset for this purpose and would be secured with
rebar. Marsh plantings, consisting of Spartina alterniflora and Spattina patens are proposed behind both the
oyster reef sill and dome sills along a 200 ft. area with an average width of 30 ft. No fill was proposed with
this project.

Installation of the domes would require a temporary construction access ramp, the proposal indicated thai
wetland mats would be utilized to cross any wetland areas, PVC posts marked with reflective tape are
proposed every 20 ft. along each structure. Monitoring is proposed with this project pre and post project to
study shoreline profiles and oyster reef habitat (see Narrative). Monitoring is proposed for a period of three
years.
The Permittee has submitted a check (#1069) in the amount of $100 for the modification. This office has no

CAMA MAJOR PERMIT 52-15 MODIFICATION
Sunset Beach Town Park is a Town owned Park located at 206 Sunset Blvd. N at
the intersection of NC Highway 179 Business and Sunset Blvd. N in Sunset Beach,
North Carolina. The Tax ID number for the property is 256GA1010. The total
project area is 5.58 acres, and is currently covered by an active 12% low density
stonnwater permit # SW8 150041 last modified May 24, 2018. The latest
modification to the CAMA major permit #52-15 was December 20th, 2018 to add
a living shoreline section.
The purpose of the modified plan is to show proposed locations of oyster sills along
the shoreline and restore/enhance saltmarsh habitat through a Minor Modification
to the CAMA Major Permit 52-15 issued on December 20, 2018.
The Coastal Wetland Line was updated and marked on November 22, 2017 along
the full length of the proposed living shoreline areas by Land Management Group,
Wilmington, NC. This updated Coastal Wetland Line is reflected on the modified
plan, The proposed living shoreline sills will not encroach into and will be placed
completely waterward of the edge of coastal marsh grass.
Specific pro'ect objectives include:
- Create (1) low profile oyster shellbag and marl/granite bag curvilinear
reef/sill that is 6' wide x 60' long x 2' high
- Create (1) low profile oyster dome reef/sills that is 8' wide x 36' long x 2'
high using Mini -Bay Reef Balls and Bay Ball Module domes

Creation of Oyster Shell and Marl Bags
Student and community volunteers will create the bags at Waterway Park using
aquaculture mesh bags and PVC bagging frames. The bags are filled with cured
oyster shell and #4 marine limestone marl (based on NCDMF use and
recommendation). The bags will be carried by the volunteers and placed in the
project area according to the approved plan.
Oyster Shellbag & Marlbag Reef/Sill
The reef/sill will be placed in the intertidal along the shoreline, to enhance and
restore lost oyster reef and fish habitat in this area. The reef/sill will also provide a
buffer for the eroding shoreline and saltmarsh from waves and boat wakes.
Oyster shell and granite/limestone marl bags will be emplaced by volunteers into
(1) low profile oyster shell and marl bag reef/sill that is 6'wide x 60'long x 2'high
along a total of 70 feet of intertidal estuarine shoreline.
The reef/sill will be constructed in a curvilinear manner, but will run parallel along
the shoreline.
The reef/sill will be constructed of one layer of marl bags on the bottom and then
two layers of oyster shell bags on top of the mar] bags, Approximately 750 bushels
of cured oyster shell and 400 bushels of marine limestone (marl) will be used to
create the approximately 800 bags of shell and marl needed for the sill.
Each bag will be approximately 2 ft. long, 6 in. wide and 8 in. high. The bags will
be placed in the water perpendicular to the shoreline to avoid rolling. The first two
layers of reefs/sills will be formed by three bags laid end to end. The third (top)
layer will be comprised of two bags laid end to end. The bags will be nestled
together to help form an interlocking structure. If needed, at 20' intervals, pieces of
curved rebar (24" long x 3/8" thick) will be pounded through the bags and into the
substrate to help hold them in place.

Oyster Dome Reef
The oyster dome reefs/sills will be placed in the intertidal and shallow subtidal areas
along the shoreline, to enhance and restore lost oyster reef and fishery habitat in this
area. The reefs/sills will also provide a buffer for the eroding shoreline and
saltmarsh from waves and boat wakes. The oyster domes will also provide a suitable RECEIVED
high relief substrate for oyster larva recruitment and settlement. The exterior surface
area and interior area of the oyster domes also provide valuable fish habitat for
foraging and refuge. AUG' 0 4 2021
The oyster dome reefs/sills will be constructed using two types of oyster doma C-M WILMINGTON, NC
- Mini -Bay Reef Ball: 17' tall; 2'5" in diameter; surface area of 29 sq. ft.;
weighs 300 lbs.
- Bay Ball Module Reef Ball: 2' tall; 3' in diameter; surface area of 40 sq. ft.;
weighs 500 lbs.
The oyster dome reefs/sills will be constructed using two rows of oyster domes
parallel to the shoreline. Each oyster dome reef/sill will have:
Channel -ward row: Approximately 10 Bay Ball Module Reef Balls placed
in a row along the channel side of the sill, with 4-6" of separation between
them.
Land -ward row: Behind the row of Bay Balls, a second row of
approximately 11 Mini -Bay Reef Balls will be placed with 4-6" of
separation between them
In total, approximately 10 Bay Ball Module Reef Balls and I I Mini -Bay Reef Balls
will be used to in 2 parallel rows to create the (1) low profile oyster dome reef/sills
that will be each 8' wide x 36' long x 2' high along a total of 40 feet of intertidal
estuarine shoreline.
(3) Lo-pro oyster domes will be placed in an offset manner at the terminus of the
southern oyster dome sill to help break up any longshore current created by
displacement fi-om passing vessels. An additional (3) Lo-pro oyster domes will be
placed in an offset manner at the terminus of the northern oyster shellbag and
granite/marl bag sill to help break up any longshore current created by displacement
from passing vessels.
Fish Passa2e/Breaks:
Approximately 5' of open area will be left between the proposed reefs/sills; and
each of the sills/reefs will be offset to allow for fish passage and inter -reef fisheries
habitat. Two small oyster dome sections (6'X2'X2') will be placed in offset manner
between the still structures to prevent erosion through the open water gaps left for
fish passage.
The oyster domes will be transported to the stockpile area in the park by truck and
offloaded. During construction, loading equipment (Bob-cat/Small excavator) will
carry the domes down the temporary construction access ramp and place them in
the oyster reef/sill foot print. The reef balls will be secured and held in place by
curved re -bar pounded into the substrate.
Oyster domes have been utilized extensively in other states including Florida and
Maryland for Living Shoreline projects. In North Carolina, oyster domes have been
used at the Carteret Community College Living Shoreline Project, Morris Landing

Clean Water Preserve Living Shoreline Projects and at other sites. The domes are
being utilized in this proposed project to provide fish habitat and a substrate for
oyster recruitment and settlement. With the diminishing supplies of oyster shells
available for habitat restoration and fishery enhancement it seems prudent to test
and evaluate oyster domes in North Carolina waters. The proposed project is a
suitable place to further evaluate the oyster domes. Photos below, from other project
sites, show the type of placement of and oyster recruitment on oyster domes that
will be utilized in the project.

To make the public aware of the living shoreline structures PVC posts will be
installed every 20' along each structure. The 2" PVC posts will pounded into the
substrate and marked with reflective tape. Warning signs will be placed on every
other post.
Coastal Saltmarsh Restoration
The saltmarsh in the proposed project area has eroded over the years and saltmarsh
habitat has been lost. Current conditions at the project site include areas of marsh
scarps, undercutting of the marsh and eroded substrate. The purpose of the saltmarsh
restoration component of the project is to restore eroded saltmarsh habitat.
This portion of the project will be located between the NHW line within the existing
and eroding saltmarsh and the channel ward extent of the growing range. The
sallmarsh restoration area will be approximately 200' long with a maximum width
of 3 8' and an average width of 3 0'. The goal is to restore lost saltmarsh habitat. The
area will be stabilized with the installation of approximately 2,500 Spartina
alterniflora (Smooth Cordgrass) planted on 12" centers to enhance the restoration
of the saltmarsh. Some high marsh plant seedlings, Spartina patens (Saltmeadow
Hay) will be installed as needed in any high marsh zones.

Profile Transects, Vegetation and Oyster Monitoriny- Plan
Prior to the construction of these reefs/sills and saltmarsh habitat pre-monitoling of
salt marsh and any existing oyster reef habitat will be performed in the areas of the
proposed locations of the reefs/sills and landward towards the existing saltmarsh.
These data will represent baseline information on existing salt marsh and oyster
habitat. Pre -monitoring of the existing oyster habitat and vegetation landward of the
proposed location of the new projects will be performed in the winter/spring 2021
following the below protocol:
Two survey transects will be established landward of the proposed oyster shell/marl
bag and reef ball sill/reef Transects will run perpendicular to the shoreline and will
be evenly spaced such as to cover the length of the footprints of the reefs/sills and
the area landward of the reefs/sills. Transects will begin at the upland/shrub zone,
and extend channel ward beyond the footprint of the reeFsills and oyster dome reef.
Also along each transect, 0.5 m PVC quadrats will be sampled every 10 feet for
plant and animal species presence/absence, plant and animal species density and
abundances, and stem heights of the three tallest plant stems of each plant species
observed within the quadrat.
The created oyster reefs will be monitored for oyster abundance, sizes, as well as
other organisms found within the reef areas. Digital pictures will also be taken of
each quadrat as well as of each transect facing landward.
Monitoring will be repeated annually for a period of three years, to monitor the
changes to the shoreline profiles, fauna and flora.
