opinion of the Secretary of the Army or his authorized representative, said structure or work shall cause

caused thereby, without expense to the United States or the state of North Carolina. No claim shall be

appear to indicate that the property boundaries for Lots 240, 241, 242, 243, 244, 466, 467, and 468
stop landward of the normal high water line, therefore allowing the development of this marina
without riparian shoreline dedications for these lots.
NOTE: Future development of the permittee's property may require a modification of this permit.
Contact a representative of the Division at (910) 796-7215 prior to the commencement of any
such activity for this determination. The permittee is further advised that many non -water
dependent activities are not authorized within 30 feet of the normal high water level.
NOTE: Any work involving the public water supply system will require engineered plans and
specifications to be submitted to the Public Water Supply Section for review and approval.
Please contact Public Water Supply at 910-796-7215.
NOTE: This permit does not eliminate the need to obtain any additional state, federal or local permits,
approvals or authorizations that may be required.
NOTE: The N.C. Division of Water Resources has assigned DWR Project No. 09-0120.The U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers assigned COE Action Id. No. SAW -2006-32722.
