This letter and attached information is to seek necessary permits to excavate lake bottom
soil to maintain recreational access to my private pier. The area affected is located at
High Rock Lake in Rowan County. The lot is part of the subdivision know as Summer
Place, lot 43, Block 13. The address is:
Sailboat Drive,
Salisbury, North Carolina 28146
The size of the excavation is approximately 120' long X 30' wide X 3' deep. The
greatest depth (3') being at the floater of pier. The depth gradually reduces to zero depth
at the 120 foot mark away from the pier. A total of approximately 200 cubic yards of dirt
is expected to be removed. The sides will be sloping down and will be such that water
will drain freely from the excavation when water levels drop below the level of
excavation. The shoreline at normal full-pool (655 feet elevation) will not be altered.
The soil will be removed via backhoe. It will be loaded into a tandem dump truck and
hauled away from site.
The surrounding resource impact should be non existent since the area of excavation is to
be done in the dry and no contact to the draw down water level by the mechanical tools
used. Fish habitat could even be improved since fish prefer to school in depressions on
the lake bottom as opposed to flat surfaces.
The excavation is to be done within 30 days of all required approvals and receipt of final
written approval from Alcoa, provided the water level is low enough to allow work and
not disturb lake water. Actual work is expected to take three days to complete.
A copy of the enclosed paperwork has been sent to:

Thanks in advance for you help with this matter.
