Dear Mr. Parker:
p C?C??ad? ??,
SEP ? 21992 {w
Reference the application of Mr. H. L. Stephenson, Neuse Winds Community
Dock, for a Department of the Army permit to construct ten-slip, community
marina facilities on Orchard Creek, Neuse Winds Community, near Oriental,
Pamlico County, North Carolina.
The Federal agencies have completed review of the proposal as presented by
the revised application and Mr. David Noble's field investigation report of
August 17, 1992. By letter of September 11, 1992 (copy enclosed) the National
Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) recommends that the proposed work not be
authorized as it would result in degradation of water quality with adverse
effects on fishery resources. NMFS indicates that they have coordinated with
the North Carolina Division of Health Services (NCDHS) and learned that
accomplishment of work would result in the closure of "SA" waters that are
currently open for the harvest of shellfish. The North Carolina Division of
Marine Fisheries (NCDMF) has informed us that the permit area has no shellfish
resources. Although the NMFS wishes to continue to object, they have
indicated that they will not pursue denial of authorization. We recommend
that the following conditions be included in the State authorization:
a. All work authorized by this permit must be performed in strict
compliance with the permit plans.
b. No attempt will be made by the permittee to prevent the full and free
use by the public of all navigable waters at or adjacent to the authorized
work. Use of the permitted activity must not interfere with the public's
right to free navigation on all navigable waters of the United States.
-2-
c. The permittee will maintain the authorized work in good condition and
in conformance with the terms and conditions of this permit. The permittee is
not relieved of this requirement if he abandons the permitted activity without
having it transferred to a third party.
Questions or comments may be addressed to Mr. Norm Sanders, Washington
Field Office, Regulatory Branch, telephone (919) 975-3025.

G. Wayne Wright

PAGE #2
NOTE: This project was originally circulated in June, 1990, but was put 'on hold'
because of insufficient stormwater information.
9. NARRATIVE DESCRIPTION: The applicant's property is a 66 acre tract known as
Neuse Winds Subdivision, located on Orchard Creek and the Neuse River, off SR1317,
near the community of Pamlico, in Pamlico County. The property is basically
undeveloped, except that a road has been constructed and paved.
The applicant's proposed project is to construct a 10 slip community dock which would
extend approximately 180' into Orchard Creek. The proposed dock will have a 6' x
315' access dock over coastal wetlands. At present, there are no other community
docks or marinas in the Orchard Creek area, but there are a few individual docks.
Water depths in the project area range from 1-4' NWL.
10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS: The waters of Orchard Creek are classified as 'SA' by
the Division of Environmental Management, open to shellfishing by the Division of
Environmental Health and Division of Marine Fisheries, and designated as a Primary
Nursery Area by the Division of Marine Fisheries. The proposed dock will occupy
approximately 6880 sq. ft. of Public Trust Waters.

FIELD INVESTIGATION REPORT - NEUSE WINDS COMMUNITY DOCK
(H. L. STEPHENSON, PAMLICO CO.
PAGE #2
NOTE: This project was originally circulated in June, 1990, but was put 'on hold'
because of insufficient stormwater information.
9. NARRATIVE DESCRIPTION: The applicant's property is a 66 acre tract known as
Neuse Winds Subdivision, located on Orchard Creek and the Neuse River, off SR1317,
near the community of Pamlico, in Pamlico County. The property is basically
undeveloped, except that a road has been constructed and paved.
The applicant's proposed project is to construct a 10 slip community dock which would
extend approximately 180' into Orchard Creek. The proposed dock will have a 6' x
315' access dock over coastal wetlands. At present, there are no other community
docks or marinas in the Orchard Creek area, but there are a few individual docks.
Water depths in the project area range from 1-4' NWL.
10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS: The waters of Orchard Creek are classified as 'SA' by
the Division of Environmental Management, open to shellfishing by the Division of
Environmental Health and Division of Marine Fisheries, and designated as a Primary
Nursery Area by the Division of Marine Fisheries. The proposed dock will occupy
approximately 6880 sq. ft. of Public Trust Waters.
