9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The project site is located at 5915 Hollyholm Trace (Lot 5), adjacent to Hewletts Creek The site is located within the City of
Wilmington, New Hanover County To locate the property heading south from Oleander Drive (NC Highway17), turn left onto
Greenville Loop Road and'travel west past Bradley Creek Elementary School approximately 15 miles Turn left onto Hollyholm
Trace and continue to head southeast until you reach the property of interest, which will be located on the right
The applicant currently maintains a single - family residence on the property, which averages approximately 10' -15' above normal
high water (NHW) and the approximately 104' of shoreline is currently stabilized by vegetation. Adjacent to the shoreline, there is
a border of Coastal Wetlands, approximately 450 feet wide The marsh vegetation consists of Smooth Cordgrass (Spartma
alterniflora), Black Needle Rush (Juncus roemarianus), Spike Grass (Dist►chlis spicata), Sea Oxeye (Borrichia frutescens), Sea
Lavender (Limonium, spp ), Saw Grass (Clad►umjamaicense), Three - square (Scrrpus, spp ), and Salt Meadow Grass (Spartina
patens). Several small shrubs just waterward of the highground includes, Marsh -elder (Iva frutescens), Grounsel -bush (Baccharus
halimifolia) complete the transition into the base of the yard The open water area of Hewletts Creek adjacent to the applicant's
property is approximately 180' in width Waterward of the Coastal Wetlands are several areas of oyster reefs visible in the mud flat
at low water within the creek Based on site visits at this location, the water depth within this area of Hewletts Creek was
approximately -0 5' along the waterward edge of the marsh and approximately -2 0' within the channel of Hewletts Creek at normal
low water (NLW)
The previous property owner (R. Gevinson), obtained State Permit No. 102-01 on August 23, 2001for a private two (2) slip docking
facility, which was never constructed and State Permit No 102 -01 expired on December 31, 2004
The Wilmington /New Hanover County Land Use Plan classifies adjacent waters as Conservation, and the adjacent high ground
portion of the prolect,area as Resource Protection The waters of Hewletts Creek are classified SA by the Division of Water
Resources They are designated as a primary nursery area (PNA) by the N C Division of Marine Fisheries and they are CLOSED
to the harvest of shellfish
PROPOSED PROJECT:
The applicant proposes to construct a private docking facility within Hewletts Creek The pier would be approximately 495' m length
by 6' in width, which would terminate onto a "T- shaped" uncovered platform, measuring approximately 20' in length by 10' in width
located over open water. A floating dock, measuring approximately 18' in length by 6' in width, would be installed on the east side
of the platform, to provide a wet slip for one small vessel on the waterward side of the floating dock The applications states that
pilings would be installed on the landward side to prevent dockage Additionally, a boatlift, measuring approximately 13' in length
by 13' in width is proposed on the west side of the T -head platform The application states that the water depth at the location of
the waterward end of the proposed docking structures is -15' at NLW Based on previous site visits for the adjacent riparian
properties (Palmetto Pointe Sub , Bain and Sullivan) located adjacent to this property on this side of Hewletts Creek, the NC DCM
has determined that the current water depths in the location of the proposed docking structures would range from approximately -
0 5' to -15', relative NLW Further, portions of the proposed structures would also be located adjacent to several areas of oyster
reefs that are visible in the mud flat at low water within the creek (See Sheets 1 and 2 of 2 and Project Narrative)
10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS:
The proposed private docking facility would incorporate approximately 1,839 sq. ft. of Public TrustArea and Estuarine Waters and
would shade approximately 2,760 sq ft of Coastal Wetlands. The proposed structures would extend approximately 45' into a
waterbody, which measures approximately 180' across in this location of Hewletts Creek. This distance would conform to the 1/4
width rule Based on the submitted drawings, the proposed structures would not encroach into the 15' adjacent riparian corridor
setback requirement. The construction would provide docking space for a total of two (2) vessels Due to the limited amount of
water, approximately -0 5' to -1.5' at NLW located on this side of Hewletts Creek as shown in the attached photography and
drawings, there will be potential for bottom disturbance and displacement of the substrate "kicking" by vessel propellers to access
the channel of the creek Minor increases in turbidity should be expected during the construction process (See on -site
photograph)
