9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The project is located at 177 Beach Road South on Figure Eight Island, adjacent to Banks Channel and Middle Sound,
in New Hanover County. The island is accessed from the mainland at the end of Edgewater Club Road (SR 1402), by
private bridge over the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (AIWW) and an earthen causeway, which traverses Middle
Sound. Heading east on the causeway, turn right on Beach Road South and the property will be located
approximately 1.75 miles on the right. The project site is located at 177 Beach Road South, adjacent to Banks
Channel, on Figure Eight Island, New Hanover County. The property is adjacent to residential properties on the south
and north sides. The property is bordered on the east side by Beach Road South and a man-made cove to the west.
The current elevation of the property is approximately 8 feet above mean sea level (MSL). The 0.58 acre property is
developed with a single-family residence located and has approximately 76 linear feet of shoreline frontage. The
highground vegetation extends to a natural bank along the shoreline that is naturally stabilized with vegetation. The
bank is approximately four feet in height and transitions to low marsh approximately 25 feet wide that is vegetated
with Salt Meadow Hay (Spartina patens), Salt Marsh Cord Grass (Spartina alterniflora), Sea Lavender (Limonium
spp.) and Glasswort (Salicornia spp).
A wooden walkway extends from the residence and connects to the existing access pier. The existing pier measures
approximately 75 feet in length by 6 feet in width that spans over the area of coastal wetlands and open water. The
access pier terminates onto an uncovered "L"-shaped platform area, measuring 15 feet in length by 15 feet in width.
An access ramp then leads onto a floating dock, measuring 25 feet in length by 8 feet in width, which runs in the same
alignment as the access pier. A boatlift is located on the southern side of the floating dock, which measures
approximately 12 feet in length by 12 feet in width. The existing docking facility currently accommodates up to two
(2) vessels.
The New Hanover County Land Use Plan classifies the adjacent waters and high ground portion of the project site as
Conservation. The waters of Banks Channel and Middle Sound are classified as SA-ORW, by the NC Division of
Water Quality. These waters are NOT designated as PNA by the NC Division of Marine Fisheries and are Open to
the harvest of shellfish.
10. PROPOSED PROJECT:
The applicant proposes to remove an existing floating dock, install a new "L" shaped floating dock and boatlift to
provide mooring for three (3) vessels. The applicant proposes to remove the existing 25 feet in length by 8 feet in
width floating dock and replace it with a 25 feet in length by 6 feet in width floating dock, which would run in the
same within the same alignment. A new floating dock, measuring 18 feet in length by 8 feet in width would be
located on the northern side of the most waterward end of this floating dock creating an "L" shaped configuration. A
new boatlift, measuring 13 feet in length by 14 feet in width would be located on the landward side of the new
configuration. The new floating docks would be arranged in an "L" shaped configuration and would provide mooring
for three (3) vessels.

11. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS:
The proposed structures would incorporate approximately 476 square feet of Estuarine Waters and Public Trust Area,
however much of this area is currently usurped by the existing docking facility. The proposed structure would extend
approximately 70 feet into the waterbody and would not extend beyond the established pier length. Based on the
survey provided in the application, the docking facility would not encroach into the 15 foot riparian corridor setback
requirement and would be located within the riparian access area of the applicant. The proposed docking facility
would provide mooring for three (3) vessels. Minor increases in turbidity should be expected during construction, but
if construction is timed to avoid periods of peak biological activity impacts should be minimal.
