RV's Restaurant
Field Report

SITE DESCRIPTION
RV's Restaurant is currently located on an approximate 1.5 acre tract of land located between Hwy
64/264 and the Roanoke Sound in Nags Head, Dare County. The property is rises from the elevation of
Roanoke Sound to approximately 4 feet above mean sea level. The shoreline of the property along
Roanoke Sound is currently riprapped with broken concrete. The water depth adjacent the rip rap in
Roanoke Sound is approximately 6" and gradually increases to approximately 18" 200 feet offshore. Aerial
photography shows no submerged aquatic vegetation in the vicinity of the project. Upland vegetation on
the tract includes lawn grasses and several wax myrtle bushes. The Restaurant, paved parking and septic
drainfield utilize the majority of the property. A 500 ft2, roofed gazebo was permitted under CAMA
permit #111-88 and was constructed in the tidal creek on the east side of the property.
PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT
RV's Restaurant proposes to construct a 6-foot wide by 200-foot pier with a 500 ft2 deck located at
its waterward end. An additional 15 feet of pier will extend across the existing rip rap to the highground.
The 200-foot pier will angle north-northwest and end in water approximately 18" deep. No piers exist in
Roanoke Sound in the immediate vicinity of this proposal. The applicant indicates this pier will be used for
access to Roanoke Sound and "For customers to walk and look at wildlife."
ANTICIPATED IMPACTS
Approximately 1700 ft2 of shallow water habitat in Roanoke Sound will be shaded by the proposed
pier and deck. Some minor turbidities may result during the construction of the pier, but should be short-
termed and very localized. No archaeological sites have been identified in the area.
CAMA REVIEW
The Dare County Land Use Plan review and consistency determination will be conducted and
forwarded under separate cover by Steve Gabriel.
Please type or print. Carefully describe all anticipLe:d

tion, filling, paving, land clearing, and stormwater con-
