Field Investigation Report
Page 2
Proiect Settin
The site of the proposed development is located at 101 Sea Horse Lane (off of SR 1186)
within the Walnut Island Estates subdivision located in Grandy, Currituck County, adjacent
to a man-made canal that connects to Dowdy Bay of Currituck Sound.
The property is approximately 3250 sf in size and has approximately 73' of shoreline with a
1' erosion escarpment. The current shoreline contains no wetlands and is partially lined with
a sparse amount of remnant concrete rip rap for approximately 25' on the southern side of
the property. This property historically had a boat ramp located where the shoreline extends
landward. The rest of the shoreline is unhardened. The elevation of the property is
approximately +1.5 feet above NWL. As of now the parcel is vacant lot that the applicant
uses for parking / storage of trailers. According to the USDA's Natural Resources
Conservation Services' Web Soil Survey, the soil on the property is made up of newhan fine
sand and is vegetated with grasses that are mowed periodically with a 10' section of
bamboo planted by the applicant.
The adjacent riparian property to the northwest contains a single family dwelling with a
bulkhead shoreline. The adjacent riparian property to the southeast is a vacant lot with
mowed grasses and no bulkhead. Based on available information, there appears to be no
archaeological sites on this property or nearby.
The waters of the Currituck Sound in this area are classified as SC and are closed to
shellfish taking. Water depths within the project sight range from 4 to -5' and average -2.5'.
The bottom substrate within the project area is made up of muddy sand and detritus.
Rooted widgeon grass (Ruppia maritima) was observed growing in dense patches along the
properties shoreline.
Development Proposal
In order to prevent further erosion and regain use of the property to build a future small
single family house, the applicant proposes to stabilize the shoreline by constructing 73' of
wooden bulkhead. The proposed alignment will tie into the existing bulkhead corner on the
adjacent property to the north west and will continue in a southeasterly direction creating a
straight alignment. This alignment will average 9:3' waterward of normal water level with a
maximum distance of 20' waterward. The 20' maximum distance from normal water level
needed to obtain a straight alignment is due to a former boat ramp that was on the property.
A return wall will be constructed along the southern property line.

Anticipated Impacts
The construction of the bulkhead along with the proposed alignment will result in
the filling of approximately 678 sf of Estuarine Waters and Public Trust Areas
AEC's with clean fill from an upland source totaling 62.8 cubic yards.
The bulkhead installation and backfill will result in approximately 1,460 sf (0.03
acres) of land disturbance within the Estuarine Shoreline AEC.
