application shall expire upon expiration of the 404 or CAMA Permit.
This approval is for the purpose and design that you described in your application. If you change
your project, you must notify us and you may be required to send us a new application. If the

be required as described in 15A NCAC 21-1.0506 (h). This approval requires you to follow the

PROJECT SETTING
The site of the development proposal is located at 110 North Water Street (NC 34), Elizabeth
City, in Pasquotank County, and adjacent to the Pasquotank River. The site has 100 percent
impervious coverage with man-made features that include a three-story condominium building
and a paved parking area. There is no vegetation at the site. The 60 feet long shoreline of the
property has a concrete bulkhead that is part of the building foundation and riprap. Adjacent
to the shoreline are old pilings, concrete rubble, and the stumps that are submerged. The
property has an elevation of approximately 4 feet above Normal Water Level (NWL).
The adjacent property to the north is a hardware store with a paved parking area and concrete
bulkhead along the shoreline. The parking area extends 16 feet farther in the Pasquotank River
than the applicants' property. The adjacent property to the south is a condominium building
with a similar shoreline alignment and a concrete bulkhead. CAMA Major Permit #152-95
was issued to the adjacent property owner on the south side for the construction of a dock with
boat slips.
The property had a 6 feet wide and 60 feet long dock that was destroyed by Hurricane Isabel.
The property owners who docked there complained about hitting underwater hazards.
The waters of the Pasquotank River in this area are classified as SC by the Environmental
Management Commission and are closed to shellfish taking. The water depths in this area
range from -2 feet near shore to -20 feet in the center of the channel. The waterfront in this
area of the City of Elizabeth City is considered to be Urban Waterfront Area.
DEVELOPMENT PROPOSAL
In order to provide water access, the applicant proposes to construct a 16 feet wide and 60 feet
long dock in the Pasquotank River. The dock would run from property line to property line
and would cover the existing debris, pilings, and stumps. The dock would be in alignment
with the shoreline of the parking area located on the north side.
ANTICIPATED IMPACTS
The development proposal will result in 960 square feet of shading of Public Trust Area and
Estuarine Waters AEC. Approximately four small boats could use the dock at a time. The
boat operators would no longer be hitting stumps when they attempt to dock.
Temporary water turbidity will occur during construction.
