9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
To find the project site from the Bald Head Island Ferry Landing travel southwest on Keelson Row and veer left onto
N. Bald Head Wynd for 1,4 miles. Continue onto Federal Road and turn left onto SE Beach Drive, Travel
approximately 0.6 miles and turn left on Cape Creek Road. Follow Cape Creek Road to the gate, which will be
locked, The timber bridges are located at the end of Cape Creek Road. Contact Mr. Bruce Marek for access. He
can be reached at 910-228-2484. The project site is bordered by Cape Creek to the north and undeveloped Bald
Head Conservancy Owned marshland to the west, east and south. The NC State Property Office owns the
remaining adjacent parcels.
Bald Head Island is part of an island group known as Smith Island, located at the confluence of the Cape Fear River
and Atlantic Ocean between Fort Fisher and Oak Island/Caswell Beach in Brunswick County. The island is accessed
by private boat or a private ferry service from Southport. This specific project area is located on Cape Creek Road in
the northern central part of the island and encompasses approximately 0.93 acres and averages approximately 4 ft.
above normal high water (NHW). Both Coastal Wetlands, dominated primarily with Salt Marsh Cordgrass (Spartina
alterniffora, and Section 404 Wetland Vegetation exists adjacent to both old timber bridges. The existing bridges
average 2- 3 ft, above the substate. A storage house and gravel parking area are the only man-made uses on the
high ground portion of the tract. The adjacent Bald Head island Conservancy property allows access to the Middle
Island POA docking facility and boat ramp via an old wooden bridge spanning coastal wetlands, which is a tidal
slough of Cape Creek. The applicant's measured shoreline is approximately 262 ft. in length, including a 12 ft. wide
concrete boat ramp. The high ground area immediately adjacent to the docking facility is stabilized by rip rap
measuring approximately 133 ft, long by 20 ft. wide (2660 sq. ft.). There is a band of coastal wetlands along the top
edge of the existing rip rap consisting primarily of Salt Meadow Grass (Spartina patens). The remaining unstabilized
shoreline is dominated primarily with Salt Marsh Cordgrass (Spartina alterniflora).
The existing docking facility and boat ramp are for the sole use of the Middle Island POA residents. General Permit
No. 63216D was issued to Middle Island Marina Co. on March 31, 2014 to replace the existing boat ramp and
construct two associated rip rap groins. Major Permit No. 8-18 was issued on January 12, 2018 to reconfigure the
existing docking facility for a total of nine (9) slips, replace the existing boat ramp, install rip rap (including
supplemental vinyl sheeting) and construct a kayak launch at the Middle Island POA dock and boat ramp. The new
docking facility is approximately 20 ft. closer to the shoreline. Two new floating docks, one measuring 108 ft. in
length by 5 ft, in width running parallel with the shoreline and one measuring 34 ft. in length by 5 ft. in width running
perpendicular to the shoreline, extend waterward from the existing 22 ft. long by 8 ft. wide fixed dock creating an L
shape. There are 4 finger piers extending waterward into Cape Creek and a kayak launch. At this time, the boat
ramp has not been replaced due to low water depths preventing access and inability of large equipment to cross the
old timber bridges to access the site. According to the applicant the existing 54.4 x 11 ft. north bridge and 32.2 x 11
ft. south bridge bridges and roadways were installed prior to 1988. The project site is owned by the Middle Island
POA, however both parcels along the access road are owned by the Bald Head Conservancy. State Permit No. 8-18
is due to expire on December 31, 2023.
The Village of Bald Head Island Land Use Plan classifies adjacent waters as Conservation, and the adjacent high
ground portion of the project area as Low Density Residential. The waters of the Atlantic Ocean contiguous with this
portion of the Cape Fear River are classified as SAIHQW by the North Carolina Division of Water Resources. The
waters are not designated as a Primary Nursery Area (PNA) by the N,C. Division of Marine Fisheries. They are OPEN
to the harvesting of shellfish.

Middle Island Timber Bridge Replacement

PROPOSED PROJECT;
The applicant is proposing to replace two old timber bridges with sand and gravel based land bridges with culverts
resulting in wetland fill at the Cape Creek Road access to the Middle Island POA dock and boat ramp. The existing
bridges have approximately 2-3 ft. of clearance over joint Section 404/Coastal wetland areas and currently facilitate
only pedestrian and golf cart crossings. According to the applicant, an elevated timber bridge is not feasible in this
location due to the flat profile and narrow crossing. The POA and the Village would like the replacement bridges to be
load rated both for public use and emergency vehicle access (see Narrative). The existing timber bridges are 11 ft.
wide and are proposed to be replaced with a new 18 ft. wide footprint to include vertical sheet pile walls for stabilization
and three 18" culverts each. The existing road would be graded and the new sheet pile sided land bridges would be
at elevation 6 FMSL. The North Bridge, which is on Parcel No. 2600003 would be replaced with a sand/gravel travel
footprint of approximately 55 ft. in length by 12 ft. in width and the South Bridge, which is in the road ROW, would have
a 34 ft. in length by 12 ft. in width travel footprint. However, total width of structure between sheet pile at each land
bridge site would be 18 ft, (see Sheets WD1 and WD2). The application states that the gravel -based land bridges
would include 57 stone a minimum of 4" thick with a geotextile base (see Sheets C2 R3 & C3 R3).
The original proposal was modified to minimize wetland impacts. The new bridges and culverts would result in the filling
of approximately 285 sq, ft. of Joint Section 404 Wetlands and up to 540 sq. ft. of existing Coastal Wetland Area,
consisting of Salt Marsh Cordgrass (Sparfina alferniflora), The North bridge would impact 290 sq. ft. of Coastal
Wetlands below NHW and 195 sq. ft of Section 404 type Joint Wetlands and the South bridge would impact 250 sq. ft,
of Coastal Wetlands below NHW and 90 sq. ft of Section 404 type Joint Wetlands. The existing open water unvegetated
area below the existing bridges would also be filled with 470 sq. ft. impacted for the North Bridge and 390 sq. ft, for the
south bridge with a total of approximately 305 cubic yards of fill including clean rubble and quarry rock. Approximately
5 sq. ft. of Rip rap is proposed for each culvert outfall and at each corner of the new bridge/high ground convergence
area. A total of 100 sq. ft. of rip rap is proposed within existing Coastal Wetland Areas for stabilization. There are no
existing wetland areas beneath the existing bridges (due to shading), but fringes of plants are present. Both proposed
new land bridges would have three 20 ft, long by 18" diameter culverts that would be excavated approximately 6" into
the existing creek bed with a height of 1 ft. above grade. The culvert placement would result in the excavation of 180
sq. ft. of unvegetated open water area and 198 sq. ft. of Coastal Wetland area. A Jurisdictional Determination was
submitted with this permit application dated 919121 (Attached). Normal high water flows beneath both bridges, but due
to the density of vegetation adjacent to the bridges and heightof the existing bridge footprints, this area is not navigable.
No mitigation was proposed with this permit application.
Upland grading would occur within 20 ft, of each land bridge end resulting in a vertical road taperto the desired elevation
of 6 FMSL, from approximately 4.5 FMSL. All work would be done within the existing road footprint with impacts of
535 sq. ft. total for the north bridge and 525 sq. ft, for the south bridge.
All work is proposed to be conducted via existing bridges to avoid additional wetland impacts. There is an existing
gravel turn around and maintenance area for the docking facility, this area would be utilized as a laydown area for
construction of the proposed land bridges and upcoming boat ramp replacement. The application states that the
existing water and electric would be placed between the sheet pile walls.
The applicant has also provided an agent form from the Bald Head Conservancy for the proposed bridge replacements.

10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS:
The proposed bridge structures would fill approximately 285 sq. ft. of vegetated Joint Section 404 and 540 sq. ft. of
Coastal Wetland Areas and an additional 860 sq. ft. of open water area below NHW that has been historically shaded
due to existing low profile timber bridges. The placement of 6 proposed culvert structures beneath the proposed
bridges would result in the excavation of approximately 198 sq. ft. of Coastal Wetland and 180 sq. ft. of open water
area within Cape Creek. Additional high ground grading within a 20 ft. proximity to both bridges would disturb
approximately 1,060 sq. ft.

Project Narrative: CAMA 18-8 Major Mod Request Middle Island Property Owners
Association, Inc (MIPOA) (Bald Head Island, NC) Replacement of Two Aging Timber
Bridges, with Vinyl Sheet Pile Sided, Emergency & Construction Vehicle Capable
"Land Bridges"
Tlie Middle Island Homeowners Association, Inc., (MIHOA) has retained me as authorized agent in
applying for a minor modification to its existing CAMA Major Permit 8.18, issued on January 12,
2018, and which has a current expiration date of December 31.2023. The bridge replacement was first
submitted as a Minor Modification on 3/1/21. Per CAMA and other agency comments. the submittal
was upgraded to a major rnod. A DWR electronic filing was submitted on 6-11-21. On 7-1 1-21. the
package for conventional 3H:1 V side sloped "land bridges" was submitted. CAMA comments were
received to further minimize the wetland disturbances of the proposed land bridges.
The Land Management Group had flagged 404 & Coastal Wetlands during July 2020. CAMA, COE
& the BHI Conservancy have all visited the site. The US Army Corps of Engineers accepted Land
Management Group's wetland delineation per 9-9-21 Gary Beecher JD. Note that the delineated
wetlands considered the area under the existing timber bridges to be "tidal unvegetated". As the
bridges are appx I I' wide, and there is some fringe growth immediately under the bridge edges, I have
assumed the unvegetated portion as 1' in from each side f the bridge — a 9' unvegetated width.
The CAMA 8-18 Cape Creek 9 Slip Marina docks were installed in 2019 and have been issued a
Certificate of Inspection by Village of Bald Head Building Inspector/I.PO Stephen Boyett. The new
docks have weathered Hurricanes Dorian and Isaias. (They fared much better than the downwind
Southport Marina!) We will progress to the Boat Ramp Replacetnent/Riprap part of the permitted
project, which will restore the MIPOA small boat trailer access to the water, once the bridges are
replaced.
Condition 14 of the CAMA 8-18 permit states: "the boat ramp shall either be Youred at an upland
location and pushed into place once hardened, or poured entirely within a watertight containment
structure. ..." . And in the first Note after Conditions 27, "Future Development of the permittee`s
property may require a modification of this permit. Contact a representative of the Division ... prior to
commencement of any such activity for this determination .... As per above, I have been in
discussions on this since last year. My March 2021 Minor Mod submittal generated a comment by the
COE f'or it to be a Major Mod.
Both of the permitted Condition 14 methods have engineering challenges because of the remote
location on Middle Island/Bald Head Island, NC. As Completion Proiect Engineer, getting
prefabricated concrete planks to the site is problematic. I am not sure that I can get a sufficient sized
barge/crane up tine narrow Cape Creek by water. A land approach and poured concrete ramp is the
more feasible/realistic solution. Virtually all boat ramps in the area are poured concrete. (I was
involved in a 5 year legal skirmish over an old timber marine railway that had become out of
transverse level, and to varying degrees and alternating directions. There was no good way to `.jack"
up on the sand bottom any one or section of cross timbers to make straight again.)

The boat ramp engineering, by Criser/Troutman & Associates, is similar to the VilIRM M&TON, NC
island Boat Ramp on Bald Head Creek at the Kayak Launch Site along North Bald Head Wynd. The
probleni is, that the two appx 40 year old timber bridges, on Tract A, Parcel 26000042 are barely fit for
golf carts and an occasional maintenance pick-up truck, definitely not load rated for the concrete trucks
needed to construct the ramp as was done for the Village.
Alternately, even pre -cast concrete panels are problematic, as to not only size/weight, and having to be
barged to the island, a relatively long reach crane will be needed to place in the permitted location. I
have discussed about doing this by water from a barge, but the crane size requires a large enough barge
that Cross Creek creek access is an issue. So, it led to the discussions/request for replacing the aging
bridges.
A desire of the MIPOA. and the Village of Bald Head Island, is also to have the bridge load rated so
the public safety/emergency vehicles can have access to the marina docks. The existing North 55'+/-
timber bridge elevation is appx 4.7'. which is Y lower than the top of the Bald Head Island Marina
Bulkhead Cap. Low Point of creek bottom is 1.57 FMSL at center of the bridge. "There is only about
2' of clearance from the bottom of the bridge structure, and it is not navigable. The South 34'+/-
Timber Bridge elevation is appx 4.9', or appx the elevation of the BHI Marina Cap. Low Point of
creek bottom is 1.8 FMSL at center of the bridge. Again, there is only about 2' of clearance from the
bottom of the bridge structure, and it is also not navigable.
Note that there are no coastal wetlands under the existing bridges. and just fringes of growth of other
vegetation outside of the bridge footprints that have crept back and thru the spaced timber deck boards
at the perimeter. The basic site upland elevations lie between 4 and 6 FMSL, i.e. very flat. Designing
a raised timber bridge Stich as the Timber Cart Bridge over the rnarsh from the Old Baldy Lighthouse
to Keelson Row had so much more length to work with and higher starting grade elevations of 6 FMS1_
and then cambering up appx 3' at mid -length. That is not feasible here, and the Back Hoe/Pile Driver
required to do such a load bearing structure would be much too wide/tall to get down to the Cape
Creek Road Site.

Project Narrative: CAMA 8-18 Major Modification Request Replacement of Two Timb WlLONGTC?N, NC

Which brings us to this major mod request. The timber approach bridges are golf cart capable, but not
much more at this point in their lifespan. From the previous pictures. they are in poor structural shape.
Mr. Young and I had several conversations about I0 years ago, when I re -did the Middle Island Bald
Head Creek Dock. lie talked of his early days of developing Middle Island after his purchase in 1978.
1 have every reason to believe that the two timber cart bridges are original. dating back to the late 70's
or early 80's. Note that the bridges and gravel/paved roads were prior to state stormwater regulations
that came in in late 1988.
I have evaluated various structural solutions and feel that replacing the timber bridges with "land
bridges" would actually solve two issues at once. The "land bridges" would allow safe access for a
concrete truck and other heavy equipment needed to install the boat ramp. It would also allow marina
access by Village of Bald Head Island Public Safety Vehicles. i.e. police. an ambulance or a fire truck.
Right now, the larger vehicles are unable to cross the bridges. Note that there is barely 3' of clearance
from creek bottom to top of bridge. 2 ft +/- from the bottom of the bridge to the creek bottom, and the e
tidal water is not navigable.

Roads have been kept minimal, and roads/rights of way have been designed to keep large oak and
other significant vegetation or land features. Single lane roads are 10' of pavement and two-lane roads
are 12' or 1 b' paved width. Not the mainland 12' width typical paved lane width.
Proiect Narrative: CAMA 8-18 Major Modification Request Replacement ofTwo'Timber Bridges

This has carried oil through my work for subsequent property owners, the Bald Head Island Club. and
various Property Owner Associations over the last 22 years of doing projects on the island. Even
mainland projects are minimalized in design concept to preserve trees and natural features.
Thus. the decision to propose the replacement of the two aging timber bridges with minimaliz_ed land
load bearing land bridges was not just a convenience design. My design is for land bridges with sheet
pile sides and culverts is similar to the one at Palmetto Cove, off of Federal Road, near the Maritime
Forest. Numerically. 1 believe two 18"' diam metal culvert pipes would be sufficient, but alter
discussion with Stephen Boyett. he indicated that the Village would prefer the redundancy of three
culvert pipes each land bridge.
Removal of the existing preservative treated timber piles also is an ecological plus.
For reference/general information. the Bald Head Island Marina bulkhead cap was 6 FMSI. when built
in the early 1980's. Under NAVD 88 it is appx 4.92 FMSL. 1 have only seen/heard of it overtopping a
few times in 22 years. So. in the rare instance that hurricane or tropical storm or winter storm event at
king tide happen. the water would roll up the side slopes and possibly cover the road. Probably a good
part of the island would also have issues. Of course, the island is usually evacuated for hurricanes. and
there wouldn't/shouldn't need to be anyone accessing the marina at the height of such an event.
Emergency personnel on the island would most likely only be using their high-water vehicles. until the
water resided.
Please see niy included drawings for the typical construction section(s), site drawing and various
engineering details.
We are aware that my drawings will generate a COE General Permit action for < 0.1 acres wetland
disturbance. The actual disturbed wetland square footage assumes a 12' road width plus 3' shoulder
to each side, minus the unvegetated 9' width under the existing bridges. See my included North and
South Bridge Wetland Disturbance Areas drawings WDl & WD2.
See also the updated the MPI.MP2 & MP5 LAMA forms to 11-16-22 and added MP3, also seal dated
1 I-16-22. The Forms are riot very appropriate for a Land Bridge. so please forgive any redundancy in
trying to answer the questions.

Dear Mr. Marek:
The Division of Coastal Management hereby acknowledges receipt of your application submitted on behalf of Middle
Island Property Owners Inc. for State approval to replace two timber bridges with land bridges located adjacent to
Cape Creek on Bald Head Island Brunswick County. It was received as complete on November 17, 2022 and
appears to be adequate for processing at this time. The projected deadline for making a decision is January 31,
2023. An additional 75-day review period is provided by law when such time is necessary to complete the review. If
you have not been notified of a final action by the initial deadline stated above, you should consider the review period
extended. Under those circumstances, this letter will serve as your notice of an extended review. However, an
additional letter will be provided on or about the 75th day.
If this agency does not render a permit decision within 70 days from November 17, 2022 you may request a meeting
with the Director of the Division of Coastal Management and permit staff to discuss the status of your project. Such a
meeting will be held within five working days from the receipt of your written request and shall include the property
owner, developer, and project designer/consultant.
NCGS 113A-119(b) requires that Notice of an application be posted at the location of the proposed development.
Enclosed you will find a "Notice of Permit Filing" postcard which must be posted at the property of your proposed
development. You should post this notice at a conspicuous point along your property where it can be observed from
a public road. Some examples would be: Nailing the notice card to. a telephone pole or tree along the road right-of-
way fronting your property; or at a point along the road right-of-way where a private road would lead one into your
property. Failure to post this notice could result in an incomplete application.
An onsite inspection will be made, and if additional information is required, you will be contacted by the appropriate
State or Federal agency. Please contact me if you have any questions and notify me in writing if you wish to receive
a copy of my field report and/or comments from reviewing agencies.
Sincerely,
Tara MacPherson

Timber Bridges
State of North Carolina State Property Office

Raleigh, NC 27699-1321
Dear Property Owner:
The Middle Island Property Owners Association, Inc. (MIPOA) has asked me to seek a modification
(Major Mod) to its existing LAMA Major Permit 8-18, which was issued in January 2018 for the
replacement of the aging marina docks and boat ramp at its Cape Creek Marina, at the end of Cape
Creek Road. The permit allows, in "Additional Conditions" (#14). "The boat ramp shall either be
poured at an upland Iocation and pushed into place once hardened, or poured in poured entirely within
a watertight containment structure", and (NOTE:). "Future development of the permittee's property
may require a modification of this permit. Contact a representative of the Division ... prior to
commencement of any such activity for this determination ..."
The 9 SIip Marina docks were replaced in 2019. The replacement of the ramp remains, and I have
been retained to oversee this phase of construction.
The boat ramp engineering, by Chisler/Troutman & Associates, is similar to the Village of Bald Head
Island Boat Ramp on Bald Head Creek at the Kayak Launch Site along North Bald Head Wynd. The
problem is, that the two appx 40 year old timber bridges, on Tract A, Parcel 26000042 are barely fit for
golf carts and an occasional maintenance pick-up truck; definitely not load rated for the concrete trucks
needed to construct the ramp as was done for the Village. Alternately, even pre -cast concrete panels
are problematic, as to not only size/weight, and having to be barged to the island, a relatively long
reach crane will be needed to place in the permitted location. I have discussed about doing this by
water from a barge, but the crane size requires a large enough barge that Cross Creek creek access is an
issue. So, it led to the discussions/request for replacing the aging bridges.
A desire of the MIPOA, and the Village of Bald Head Island, is also to have the bridge load rated so
the public safety/emergency vehicles can have access to the marina docks. The existing North 55'+l-
timber bridge elevation is appx 4.7', which is 3" lower than the top of the Bald Head Island Marina
Bulkhead Cap. Low Point of creek bottom is 1.57 FMSL at center of the bridge. There is only about
2' of clearance from the bottom of the bridge structure, and it is not navigable. The South 34'+/-
Timber Bridge elevation is appx 4.9', or appx the elevation of the BHI Marina Cap. Low Point of
creek bottom is 1.8 FMSL at center of the bridge. Again, there is only about 2' of clearance from th bottom of the bridge structure, and it is also not navigable. e

DCM Wil-MINGTON, NC

Note that there are no coastal wetlands under the existing bridges, and just fringes of growth of other
vegetation outside of the bridge footprints that have crept back and thru the spaced timber deck boards
at the perimeter. The basic site upland elevations lie between 4 and 6 FMSL, i.e. very flat. Designing
a raised timber bridge such as the Timber Cart Bridge over the marsh from the Old Baldy Lighthouse
to Keelson Row had so much more length to work with and higher starting grade elevations of 6 FMSL
and then cambering up appx 3' at mid -length. That is not feasible here, and the Back Hoe/Pile Driver
required to do such a load bearing structure would be much to wide/tall to get down to the Cape Creek
Road Site.
It was decided to build land bridges with culverts, similar to the two at the Bald Head Island Villas.
Those can handle garbage trucks, concrete trucks, fire trucks and other emergency vehicles. And are
minimal impact.

Hi Tara & Greg,
Attached is my updated Middle Island POA Bridge Replacement Application, with all forms updated and MP3 upland
development added. Narrative is updated as well. The corresponding drawings are the 5-16-22 seal date C1113, C2113 &
C3113. I have include wetland disturbance drawings within the MP submittal as WD1 for the north land bridge areas and
WD2 for the south land bridge.
Note that the Transverse section on OR3 is identical conditions for both the north and south land bridges. I did not
provide a separate longitudinal section for the south land bridge as it is similar to the North Bridge longitudinal section,
only35' nominal long rather than 55' nominal.

Hi Bruce,
I have been reviewing the revised drawings with the reduced wetland impacts that you sent and the pending permit
application forms. Do you have a detail for the south bridge as well? We need to update the narrative for the vinyl sheet
piles and reduced fill amounts. The MP-1 5(d) and MP-2 need to be updated with the correct fill amounts, length/width/
wetland impacts as well. If the culverts have not changed we may be ok with the MP-5, although it still lists wetland fill
so we need to verify that those are still correct.
Thank you,
Tara

I answered all of the below, I believe, in the updated 11 meg submittal, attached, that has a pdf date of 6-8-21. 1
Originally submitted the application on 6-4-21, by pdf, and you quickly replied with the below. Since it was just a couple
of sheets that didn't have my seal on it, I kept the 6-4-21 seal date and also inserted the corrections into the packet I
handed in. (There is also a supplemental documents pdf, but that will kick me over the limit here. You should have it
in the hard copy submittal, and by pdf.
Both bridges are MIPOA Property. Confusing is that when Land Management came out to flag the wetlands, they got
permission also from the BHI Conservancy to enter their property. I had to read that closely myself.
I did fill in to the other fill section for the riprap.
The State green card came back received dated 6-8-21.
Drawing C4-R1 clearly shows Concrete Headwall typical dimensions. Headwalls are at each culvert end. Three 18"
culvert pipes per bridge x 2 ends = 6 pipe ends per bridge. Worst case is 6 individual concrete headwalls per bridge, but
ideally we can get or make two triples headwalls (like in the picture of the existing triple at the Villas). It's a
weight/handling vs build in place issue that will be addressed once there is the CAM Permit in place.
I will check with Land Management Group on the JD. LMG Flagged everything, Walter Cavedo surveyed, I believe COE
concurred without coming out to the site, and then ISAIAS het, further distracting from the project.

Just like you take a red pen to my submittals, I take a red pen to State and Federal Forms as to what would work best for
me. At least in my mind.
The north Bridge is squarely on the 2600003 Tract A MIPOA parcel.. The South bridge is in the road right of way, which
is/was centered on the centerline of the existing Cape Creek Road when it was platted in 2004 (see the road plat as one
of my attached surveys. But that is also owned by MIPOA per the same 2015 Deed from Young Realty to the Middle
Island Property Owners Association. I.e. when Charlie finally retired and gave up all of the Marina and Creek Dock and
roads and Tennis Club and common areas to the MIPOA. The same MIPOA agent authorization should cover the south
bridge.

HI Bruce,
A Major Modification is just like a "new" permit application. It is a Major Mod to tie it into the original permit
number. So there is no difference in the submittal. I am going to get that link on the website... I cannot believe no one
has thought to ask about that.
Whatever certification you have now will not include the new impacts. You have to pre -file and it is completely out of
my hands. It is not the easiest transition with the new Fed rules/ DWR, and it messes up our timelines. USACE will
review as normal...
The GIS looked like the bridges crossed both parcels.. if not then we are good. If so.. agent form will suffice.
10-4 on the utilities...
Thanks,
Tara

Location description: The two project areas are located on Cape Creek Road on Bald Head Island, Brunswick County, NC.
(Parcel 1Ds: 26000042 & 26400003).
Indicate Which of the Following Apply:
A. Preliminary Determination
There are waters, including wetlands, on the above described project area, that may be subject to Section 404 of the Clean
Water Act (CWA)(33 USC § 1344) and/or Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act (RHA) (33 USC § 403). The
waters, including wetlands, have been delineated, and the delineation has been verified by the Corps to be sufficiently accurate
and reliable. Therefore this preliminary jurisdiction determination maybe used in the permit evaluation process, including
determining compensatory mitigation. For purposes of computation of impacts, compensatory mitigation requirements, and other
resource protection measures, a permit decision made on the basis of a preliminary JD will treat all waters and wetlands that
would be affected in anyway by the permitted activity on the site as if they are jurisdictional waters of the U.S. This preliminary
determination is not an appealable action under the Regulatory Program Administrative Appeal Process (Reference 33 CFR Part
331). However, you may request an approved SD, which is an appealable action, by contacting the Corps district for further
instruction.
There are wetlands on the above described property, that may be subject to Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (CWA)(33
USC § 1344) and/or Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act (RHA) (33 USC § 403). However, since the
waters, including wetlands, have not been properly delineated, this preliminary jurisdiction determination may not be used in the
permit evaluation process. Without a verified wetland delineation, this preliminary determination is merely an effective
presumption of CWA/RHA jurisdiction overall of the waters, including wetlands, at the project area, which is not sufficiently
accurate and reliable to support an enforceable permit decision, We recommend that you have the waters of the U.S. on your
property delineated. As the Corps may not be able to accomplish this wetland delineation in a timely manner, you may wish to
obtain a consultant to conduct a delineation that can be verified by the Corps.
B. Approved Determination
X_ There are Navigable Waters of the United States within the above described property subject to the permit requirements
of Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act (RHA) (33 USC & 403) and Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (CWA)(33
USC & 1344). Unless there is a change in law or our published regulations, this determination may be relied upon for a
period not to exceed five years from the date of this notification,
X There are waters of the U.S. includin wetlands on the above described project area subject t
requirements of Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (CWA) (33 USC & 1344). Unless there is a c0ahlre'lhby 9por our

published regulations, this determination may be relied upon for a period not to exceed five years front the date of this
notification.
_ We recommend you have the waters of the U.S. on your property delineated. As the Corps may not be able to accomplish
this wetland delineation in a timely manner, you may wish to obtain a consultant to conduct a delineation that can be verified by
the Corps.
X The waters of the U.S. includin2 wetlands on your ro'ect area have been delineated and the delineation has been
verified by the Corps. We stronely suggest you have this delineation surveyed. Upon completion, this survey should be
reviewed and verifted by the Corps. Once verified, this survey will provide an accurate depiction of all areas sub)ect to
CWA iurisdiction on your wolperty whichprovided there is no chan a in the law or our published re ulations may be
relied upon fora period not to exceed five vears.
_ The waters of the U.S., including wetlands, have been delineated and surveyed and are accurately depicted on the plat signed
by the Corps Regulatory Official identified below on . Unless there is a change in the law or our published
regulations, this determination may be relied upon for a period not to exceed five years from the date of this notification.
_ There are no waters of the U.S., to include wetlands, present on the above described project area which are subject to the permit
requirements of Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (33 USC 1344). Unless there is a change in the law or our published
regulations, this determination may be relied upon for a period not to exceed five years from the date of this notification.
X The property is located in one of the 20 Coastal Counties subject to regulation under the Coastal Area Management Act
(CAMA). You should contact the Division of Coastal Manaeement in Wilmington, NC to determine their reuuirements.
Placement of dredged or fill material within waters of the US, including wetlands, without a Department of the Army permit may
constitute a violation of Section 301 of the Clean Water Act (33 USC § 1311). Placement of dredged or fill material, construction or
placement of structures, or work within navigable waters of the United States without a Department of the Army permit may
constitute a violation of Sections 9 and/or 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act (33 USC § 401 and/or 403). If you have any questions
regarding this determination and/or the Corps regulatory program, please contact Gary Beecher at [phone] or
Gary. H.Bee cher(a us ace.army.mil.
C. Basis For Determination: This site exhibits wetland criteria as described in the 1987 Corps Wetland Delineation
Manual and The Atlantic and Gulf Coastal Plain Regional Supplement.
D. Remarks: This project was desk top reviewed using field information obtained from the consultant (LMG) and Corps
generated Lidar Maps and topographic maps.
E. Attention USDA Program Participants
The delineation included herein has been conducted to identify the location and extent of the aquatic resource boundaries and/or the
jurisdictional status of aquatic resources for purposes of the Clean Water Act for the particular site identified in this request. This
delineation and/or jurisdictional determination may not be valid for the Wetland Conservation Provisions of the Food Security Act of
1985, as amended. If you or your tenant are USDA program participants, or anticipate participation in USDA programs, you should
discuss the applicability of a certified wetland determination with the local USDA service center, prior to starting work.
