Hello all,
Please refer to the above attachment(s) for materials associated with a renewal request for
an active CAMA permit.
In this case the issue in question is the marina that was issued under a major modification.
The original express permit was to develop the uplands and has not been included as part of
the attachments due to the file size of the oversized workplans, though the express
application is provided above. If you require the express workplans to complete your review
please let me know. The marina was destroyed during Hurricane Florence and an
emergency permit to rebuild was not secured. Due to this determination, the active permit
cannot be renewed under CRC rule, but the rule does allow for circulation of the request to
resource agencies to provide comment to any changes in circumstances or site
conditions, or changes in your agency's rules or development standards that warrant
a new application and CAMA major permit review.
Therefore, DCM is requesting that your agency review the above materials to determine if
site conditions or circumstances, or agency rules would prohibit DCM from issuing a renewal
of the CAMA permit. Please provide comment within 21 days of receipt of this email to any
changes in site conditions or rules that would prohibit DCM from issuing a permit renewal. If
no reply is provided within 21 days of receipt, then DCM will assume that your agency
intends a NO COMMENT.
**** Workplan page 2 to follow in second email****
Thank you for your time in this matter, if you have any questions about this process or its
intention please give me a call at the contact information below.

Applicant: River Front Investors LLC. Permit No: 106-06
Project Location: 100 Block of Howell Road, in New Bern
DCM has determined that no substantial development has occurred since the last permit action, therefore, this
project does not qualify for a renewal under CRC rule 15A NCAC 07J.0404(b). However, subsection (c) allows
the Division of Coastal Management to circulate the request to the state agencies to determine if any changes
in circumstances or in development standards warrant a new application and CAMA major permit
review. DCM is not aware of any proposed changes to the previously authorized project.
Please indicate below your agency's position or viewpoint on the proposed renewal request and return this
form to Grep_p Bodnar at the address above by January 24, 2020. If you have any questions regarding the
proposed project, contact Brad Connell at (252) 808-2808. When appropriate, in-depth comments with
supporting data is requested.
REPLY: This agency has no objection to the renewal request as proposed.

(2) Executed Authorized Agent Memorandum
Dear Mr. Connell:
We are providing this request for a permit renewal/extension and fee on behalf of our client,
Bridge Pointe Development, LLC for your review and approval. The current permit expires on
December 31, 2019.
CRC Major Development Permit No. 106-06 was issued for upland development associated with
redevelopment of the landward portion of the project site, to include construction of a new
harbor master building, bulkhead replacement, etc. on July 27, 2006. The permit was modified
and reissued on February 29, 2008 to include repairs to existing marina structures and construction
of new docking facilities and reissued on December 1, 2017 for construction on expansion of the
marina docks to the south.
The existing marina. structures have been damaged by Hurricane Florence and are awaiting a
contractor to rebuild. The walkway with bridge structure to connect the bulkhead walkway with
the sidewalk that crosses the Trent River Bridge into downtown New Bern has been constructed.
Construction on expanded marina docks to the south is pending repair work on the existing
structures. In order to continue the permitted work, we request that a renewal/extension be
granted for the permit.
If you require additional information or have any questions, please do not hesitate to call or email
me at pete@robertmchilespe.com.

Project description
The applicant proposes to redevelop the ±16.42 acre tract by removing the existing
hotel complex and build three separate multi -story condominium buildings with a total of
±307 units. Building one will be constructed on the peninsula and building two will be
constructed immediately south of the first building. The third and final condominium will be
constructed on the site of the current hotel and will have a multi -level parking garage in the
center of the structure. A new marina office is also proposed as well as a new swimming
pool located on the waterward side of the third building. Paved parking is proposed around
all three buildings. A new hotel and pool will be constructed at the southern most end of the
site and will have associated paved parking lots.
The existing ±556, retaining wall will be replaced in the same alignment and the
height will be raised in some areas. As proposed, the ±258, of wooden bulkhead will be
replaced 2' waterward of the existing bulkhead in the same alignment and will connect into
the retaining wall.
A ±6' wide concrete sidewalk is proposed along the waterfront adjacent the
landward side of the bulkhead and/or retaining walla The proposed sidewalk at the
waterward end of the peninsula will be ±25' wide. A new retaining wall is proposed at the
landward side of the sidewalk on the peninsula at building number one as well as in front of
building number three to retain the additional fill needed to raise the ground elevation of the
building site to 10' above the NWL. A t110' section of the proposed sidewalk will be
constructed over the 404 wetlands and the applicant proposes to install a slatted walk in
this area and elevate it a minimum of 3' over the wetland substrate. Two of the three
existing marina access wooden walkways will be replaced and repositioned slightly. The
new access wooden walkways will be elevated a minimum of 3' over the wetland substrate.
As proposed, the new pool will be constructed immediately landward of the retaining
wall at building number three. A round pool is proposed with a concrete apron. The apron
around the pool will tie into the proposed sidewalk resulting in two cantilevered areas over
the 404 wetlands. These concrete cantilevered areas are ±300 ft2 of shaded impact and
will be constructed >3' above the wetland substrate.
The total amount.of impervious surface existing within the 75' Estuarine Shoreline
has been calculated at ±102,937.5 ft2 or ±71 %. The project as proposed will reduce the
impervious impact in the 75' Estuarine.Shoreline to ±74,115 ft2 or 54%.

NARRATIVE
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This project involves the re -development of a 16.42-acre parcel of land located
along the James City waterfront at the confluence of the Trent and Neuse Rivers,
opposite from downtown New Bern. The existing site contains the Bridge Pointe
Hotel, and is approximately 95% impervious overall. Work associated with the
project includes preparation of the site for construction of 3 residential
condominium buildings, a new marina office, the destruction of the existing hotel
and construction of a new hotel. Modification of the existing stormwater
management system, construction of an additional stormwater management
system, parking and roads will also be performed. The disturbed area created by
the proposed work includes most of the existing 16.42 acres.
SITE DESCRIPTION
The project site is located along the James City waterfront at the confluence of the
Trent and Neuse Rivers, opposite from downtown New Bern. The Division of Coastal
Management Area of Environmental Concern (AEC) at this location measures 75
feet landward from the normal water line of the Trent River, and contains
approximately 3.07 acres of the project site. The project site has approximately
1,830 feet of shoreline and 1,865 feet of existing bulkhead/retaining wall. The
existing configuration includes approximately 1,050 feet of concrete capped,
concrete sheet -pile bulkhead, 258 feet of tongue and groove wooden bulkhead
and 557 feet of tongue and groove wooden retaining wall. (Where there is land on.
one side and water on the other of the wall, we refer to it as a bulkhead, and
where there is land on both sides of the wall, we refer to it as a retaining wall.)
In its existing configuration, the project -site is approximately 90-95% impervious,
primarily due to a compacted gravel surface that is present throughout most of the
site. The site also contains the existing Bridge Pointe Hotel, a marina office building,
and parking areas.
PHASED CONSTRUCTION
Construction of this project is proposed to be divided into three phases.
Understanding the phases requires knowledge of the assumed building numbering
that is as follows; building one is located on the peninsula, building two is located
south of building one, and building three is located where the existing hotel is
currently. The location of these three buildings is within the waterfront portion of the
project site (north of Outback Steakhouse) . The proposed hotel will be located on
the landward portion of the project site (south of Outback Steakhouse).
During phase one, the existing stormwater basin will be modified to the proposed
dimensions, a new outlet structure constructed, the proposed forebay wall
constructed, and the stormwater pipe network for buildings one and two installed.
Construction of buildings one and two will follow, with appropriate site preparation
NARRATIVE (cont'd)
and manipulation. Both proposed driveways and connecting road portions will
also be constructed during this phase to the extent that access to the existing
hotel, the new buildings, and Outback Steakhouse will be established or improved.
Phase two will probably begin with demolition of the existing hotel and associated
improvements, and conclude with the construction of building three. Replacement
of the existing wooden bulkhead/retaining wall will occur during this phase.
Replacement of the existing wooden bulkhead will be performed by installing a
new bulkhead in an alignment no more than two feet waterward of the existing
bulkhead's alignment. Replacement of the existing wooden retaining wall will be
performed by removing the existing and installing a new bulkhead in the same
alignment. In some places, the height of the existing retaining wall structure will be
increased. Replacement or new construction of sidewalks immediately behind the
bulkhead (similar to those already present), new connections to the existing
marina, and other provisions required to provide public access along the bulkhead
will be installed. The stormwater pipe network intended to serve building three will
be installed toward the beginning of this phase.
Construction of the proposed new stormwater basin and associated pipe network
will initiate phase three. Construction of the proposed hotel, attendant parking
and drives will follow.
It is unclear which phase will involve the demolition of the existing dock
master's/marina office or during which phase construction of the proposed dock
master/marina office will occur. It is anticipated that construction of the new office
will precede demolition of the existing office, with construction probably occurring
as a final portion of phase one. Accordingly, demolition of the existing office will
likely occur during the demolition portion of phase two.
Depending upon information that arises during construction, phases two and three
as described above may be reversed. It is also likely that there will be some overlap
of activities within the phases herein described.
Phases one and two construction is primarily located within drainage area one,
and improvement or modification of the existing stormwater system will be
correspond with the proposed construction.
Phase three construction is contained entirely within drainage area two.
Construction of the stormwater system proposed for this drainage area will occur
prior to construction of any impervious surfaces other than roads.
Upon completion of the proposed construction, approximately 54% of the AEC will
be impervious. This represents an approximate 25% reduction in the amount of
impervious surfaces within the AEC from the existing configuration.

9. Narrative Description:
The Bridge Pointe Marina is located at 1004 Howell Road in New Bern, Craven County. The
project site is found by traveling west on Hwy. 70 towards New Bern, taking the Downtown New
Bern exit, the marina is located on the left hand side of the road, at the bottom of the ramp, at the
confluence of the Trent and Neuse River.
The subject property is three parcels totaling 16.42 acres bordering the Trent River and
averages 3' in elevation above NWL. The water front rights are owned by Riverfront
Investors, LLC. There is currently a hotel, dock masters house, and associated marina
parking on the upland parcels owned by Bridge Pointe Development, LLC. There is a 138
slip marina originating from the property. The elevation of the tract is approximately 3'
above NWL. The high ground consists of yard grass and ornamental landscaping. The Army
Corps of Engineers has claimed a Section 404 Wetlands fringe waterward of the existing
upland retaining wall. This Section 404 Wetland is labeled as "wetland area" on the
associated workplats. At the Normal Water Level are 2 colonies of Black Needle Rush
(Juncus roemerianus). Both areas are approximately 20' x 20'. The waterbody at the subject
property is 1200' across at the narrowist point and 1600' across at the widest point.
The property has a combined shoreline of approximately 1800' and the substrate in the Trent
River at this location consist of sand and silt. The property west of the site is owned by NC
Railroad and the property east of the site is owned by NC DOT. Directly across the Trent
River from the Bridge Pointe Hotel and Marina is the Sheraton Hotel and Marina. Water
depths at the facility vary from 0' below NWL at the head of the inland basin to
approximately 14' below NWL at the end of the existing marina. There is a channel in the
vicinity of the marina that is located approximately 65' from the end of the existing docks at
the closest point. After a site visit and the review of aerial photography, it appears that no
SAV exists in the area.
The Division of Water Quality classifies this area as SB-NSW waters. This area is not a
Primary Nursery Area. This Trent River is closed to the taking of shellfish and no visible
shellfish were observed. The Craven County Land Use Plan dated 1996 classifies this area
Community on the highground and Conservation within the AFC's. The substrate
composition at the project site within the Trent River is silty sand.
10. Project Description:
The applicant is proposing to expand an existing 138-slip marina by 24.6% to a 172-slip
marina. The existing docks will remain in place and in the same configuration. The current
western most dock will be extended landward and accommodate 6 new slips as well as replace
an existing slip. The dimensions of this dock will be .100' x 6' with 4 associated finger piers
measuring 30' x 3.5' . An additional dock will be constructed in the westernmost basin to
accommodate 14 new slips. The dimensions of this dock will be 235' x 8' with 7 associated
finger piers measuring 40' x 4.5' . These two new docking facilities will account for 20 of the
34 slips proposed for expansion. The remaining 14 slips are proposed as side to docking
along the existing bulkhead at the waterward end of the existing peninsula as well as a 70' slip
Bridge Pointe Development, LLC
Page 03
at the head of the western most basin. There will be 46 mooring pilings installed along the
bulkhead and between the new finger piers as part of the boat slips. Additionally, new
gangway and platform are proposed ,at the head of the eastern most basin. This platform will
be constructed at the Normal Water Level and will measure 58' x 11' and will be accessed by
a gangway originating from the bulkhead. The purpose of the platform is loading and
unloading of pedestrians at the water level to access the amenities on the highground.
The two new docking facilities will extend no farther into the waterbody than the existing
piers and will conform to the 1/4 width rule. The new docks are commercial and therefore are
not subject to the 4 square foot rule.
The applicant is proposing to maintenance dredge two areas totaling 600 cubic yards of silty -
sand material. The material will be dredged using a barge -mounted excavator. The first area
is approximately 7500 square feet and water depths at this -locationcrange-from —0' at NWL to
—3 at NWL. The dredging will make a final project depth at this location of —4 NWL and will
total 360 cubic yards of material. The second area to be dredged is located at the landward
edge of the new 100' x 6' dock. This area is approximately 6000 square feet and water depths
at this location range from —2.5' at NWL to — 5' at NWL. The dredging will increase the
controlling depths to —5 NWL and will total 240 cubic yards. The spoil material will be
disposed of off -site at an upland location outside of the AEC.
CAMA Major Permit #106-06 was issued for the upland development on this site. CAMA
Permit # 106-06 was issued for the demolition of the old harbormaster building and the
construction of a new harbor master building, replacement of the existing wooden bulkhead
and replacement of the existing retaining walls. This permit was processed through the
Express Permitting Program.
11. Anticipated Impacts:
A total of 13,500ft2 would be excavated which would result in the removal of 600 yd3 of silty
sand material. The spoils would be disposed at an off -site upland location. The proposed
dock, finger piers and platform would result in 14,880 ft2 of open water incorporated while
shading 4,798 ft2 and providing docking for 21 boats. An increase in turbidity will occur
while setting pilings. There should be no hazard to navigation resulting from this project, as
there are other docks of equivalent length along the same shoreline. No coastal marsh would
be filled or excavated during this project.
