Oneal Drive — Ocracoke Island
Hyde County
Proiect Settin¢
The 3.01-acre project site is located off SR 1357 (Oneal Drive) on the east side of
Ocracoke Village adjacent the Pamlico Sound near Horse Pen Point in Hyde County, North
Carolina. The site is a sandy berm/upland area bordered on the northeast side by the Pamlico
Sound and the southwest by a coastal wetland marsh vegetated primarily with Juncus
roemeranus (Black Needlerush). Access to the sandy upland is by a ±20' wide x ±200' long
filled road across the marsh from SR 1357. The sandy upland berm ranges in width from ±70' to
±200' and has an elevation of approximately 4' above the normal water level (NWL). The
upland berm is subdivided into 5 lots and the largest containing the most upland located on the
northern end (Lot 4, Section 1 of Issac and John O'Neal Heirs). This lot has served as a spoil
area in the past for dredging projects authorized by Major CAMA/Dredge and Fill Permits 132-
87 and 78-01. This lot has considerably more elevation as a result of the spoil deposition
activities as much as 9' above the NWL. The spoil material (sand) has and continues to be
redistributed as part of development activities undertaken by the property owner, across the other
remaining 4 lots. Vegetation on the sandy upland berm consists of salt meadow hay (Sartina
patens), american beach grass (Ammophila brevili ugulatal, pennywort (Hydrocotyle bonariensis)
and sea oats (Uniola paniculata). The upland/wetland transition on the southwest side of the
upland berm is vegetated with wax myrtle (Myrica cerifera) and red cedar (Juniperus vir iniana).
The last lot on the south side of the upland berm is developed with a single family residence and
associated biofiltration wastewater treatment system. There is also a 6' x 150' long pier with a
20' x 20' L-head platform built into the Pamlico Sound offshore of this lot.
The shoreline adjacent the Pamlico Sound is stabilized with the combination of a vinyl
bulkhead and riprap revetment for a distance of±750'. Remnants of a 4' wide
walkway/boardwalk runs the entire length immediately adjacent the existing bulkhead. There is
a f800'long dredged access channel, originally authorized by CAMA/Dredge and Fill Permit
No. 132-87, that connects to two dredged basins, authorized by CAMA/Dredge and Fill Permit
No. 78-01, located offshore the aforementioned lots. Each dredged basin has a pier constructed
to it with a total of six slips between the two piers that we severely damaged in Hurricane
Dorian. This dredging and pier construction was conducted as part of the development of the
property.
The Pamlico Sound at this location is designated as Coastal Waters by the Marine
Fisheries Commission as well as SA by the Environmental Management Commission. The
offshore waters adjacent to this site are open to shellfishing.

Project Description
The applicant is proposing to further develop each of the four remaining unoccupied lots
with a single family residence each with associated wastewater system, driveway and parking.
Three of the four proposed wastewater systems will be biofiltration and one will be a conventional
system. Each wastewater system has been authorized by the Hyde County Health Department.
The conventional system is proposed to be constructed on the largest lot on the north end of the
upland berm. This lot will also be used to support two of the biofiltration wastewater systems for
adjoining lots lacking space to support both a residence and wastewater system. These two lots
will have a lift station to pump the wastewater from the residence to the biofiltration system on the
northern lot. The driveway and parking areas are to be constructed with gravel. Each residence
will have a 3' wooden boardwalk constructed from the residence ranging from 30' to 40'in length
to the 3' x 360' boardwalk to be reconstructed adjacent the bulkhead.
Anticipated Impacts
The project as proposed will disturb 16,964 ftz of uplands. There are no proposed
wetland or open water impacts proposed in this application package. Impervious surface
coverage for the entire upland area will be 14,223 ft2 or 10.8%. Impervious coverage within the
Estuarine Shoreline is 10,419 ft' or 20.9%. Home construction will result in 2,496 ft2 of
additional impervious surface coverage in Zone 2 of the Tar/Pamlico River Basin Buffer. There
will be 460 ftz of Zone 2 shaded by open wooden decks elevated 8' above the existing ground
level. Impacts in Zone 1 of the Tar/Pam Buffer, which will now be the 30' CAMA Buffer, total
1,740ft2 of wooden walkway from the homes to the bulkhead and boardwalk along bulkhead.
Mitigation credits for these impacts were purchased before the original permit for this project
was issued. The project will result in an increase of surface runoff from the developed areas.
This application and associated plats discuss the Tar/Pam Buffer impacts as the
application was received complete before this office was notified of the Division of water
Resources changes that made Ocracoke Island no longer subject to the Tar/Pam Buffer.

PROJECT NARRATIVE
John Geewax
CAMA Major Permit #3-13
Ocracoke, North Carolina, Hyde County
LOCATION OF PROJECT:
The project consists of five lots. Lots 3, 4, 5, lot 4, Sec 1 & lot 2 Sec 1 located off Oneal
Drive (S.R. 1357) on Ocracoke, Hyde County, adjacent to the Pamlico Sound.
PURPOSE and PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION:
The total project area of all five lots is 204,647 square feet of highground and a mixture
of Section "404" and coastal wetlands. John Geewax was previously permitted to build
on the four separate lots under CAMA major permit #3-13 which expired on December
31, 2018. The proposed improvements to his property will remain as originally
permitted. The proposed project includes the construction of four single family
residences with associated wastewater systems, driveways, parking and walkways to
the existing piers. In addition, a 3' x 360' walkway will be re -constructed along the
existing bulkhead. The proposed walkway was destroyed over several years from
various hurricanes and was not re -constructed; therefore, we are proposing to rebuild it
in the same location.
There is an existing single family residence located on lot 2, Seel with a pier and
gazebo located on the Pamlico Sound. The remaining existing improvements on the
properties include an asphalt/gravel driveway, bulkhead, rip -rap shoreline, two piers with
7 boat slips and one boat house.

2. Stormwater Management
Stormwater generated off the residential dwelling must be collected and
treated. This may be accomplished through the use of gutters and rain
barrels or by collecting and directing to a residential rain
garden/biotention area. An Operation and Maintenance Agreement (O&M
Agreement) will be required when utilizing the above -mentioned Best
Management Practices (BMPs). A bioretention cell consists of a
depression in the ground that supports various types of water -tolerant
vegetation. The surface of the BMP is depressed in bioretention cell to
allow for ponding of runoff that filters through the soil. Ponding depth
shall be 12 inches or less. No dimension (width, length, or radius) can be
less than 10 feet. This is to provide sufficient space for plants. A final
plan for stormwater treatment must be provided and approved by the
Division, including an O&M Agreement.
