8. Project Summary: The applicant wishes to construct a single family residence, a retaining
wall, a dock, and a gazebo.
9. Narrative Description:
The property is located at Lot #44 in the Wilson Creek Heights subdivision on West Wilson Creek
Drive in New Bern, Craven County. The lot is a 0.79-acre tract adjacent to Wilson Creek. This
site is developed with an existing 600 ft2 asphalt driveway and a 720 ft2 concrete slab. The existing
driveway is located in the southeast corner of the parcel connecting to West Wilson Creek Drive.

Field Investigation Report:
Sean Corcoran
Page 2
The existing concrete slab is near the northeast corner of the lot, approximately 10' from the
shoreline of Wilson Creek. Both of the adjacent properties are developed single family residences.
The average elevation of the high ground of the parcel is +5' above the normal water level (nwl).
Vegetation on this particular tract is mainly comprised of woody vegetation. The northern portion
of the lot has over 150' of shoreline along Wilson Creek. There is approximately 0.25 acres of
Section 404 Wetlands, which includes part of an island, adjacent to the shoreline. These wetlands
are predominantly comprised of cypress trees. Immediate offshore water depths adjacent to the lot
range from about -1' to -4' nwl. The subaqueous substrate is soft without shell.
This waterbody is about thirty feet across at this location. This tributary is a part of the Neuse
River basin. These waters of West Creek are not classified as a Primary Nursery Area and there is
no submerged aquatic vegetation present. This area is closed to shellfish harvest and is classified
as C; Swamp, Nutrient Sensitive Waters. There is not a defined channel in the nearby vicinity of
the project area.
10. Proposed Development:
The applicant wishes to develop the lot with asingle-family residence, retaining wall, gazebo, and
dock. The residential structure and associated driveway combined will be greater than 5,000
square feet. They are to be sited on high ground at the southern end of the lot, more that 50' from
Wilson Creek.
The retaining wall will be constructed within the Section 404 Wetlands adjacent to the shoreline.
This wooden retaining wall will be approximately 100' in length and 5' in height. The backfill
material for this wall will 6110.10 acres of Section 404 Wetlands.
A wooden pier and connecting gazebo are proposed for the northeastern corner of the property.
The 12' by 12' gazebo will be sited on top of the existing concrete slab. The "L"-shaped pier will
approximately follow the shoreline from the retaining wall along the edge of Wilson Creek,
elevated over the Section 404 Wetlands. There are no formalized boat slips proposed. This pier
will be 6' wide and a total of 88' long. There will be a 6' by 10' walkway connection from the
pier to the gazebo on the existing concrete slab.
11. Anticipated Impacts:
The "L"-shaped pier will shade 570 square feet of Section 404 Wetlands. The corner of the "L"
will extend 3' waterward into a 22' wide tributary. It will not be a hazard to navigation. It will be
5' from the nearest adjacent riparian property line. The retaining wall and subsequent backfill will
impact 4,356 square feet of Section 404 Wetlands and DWQ Neuse River Riparian Buffer. The
roofed gazebo will be constructed over apre-existing concrete slab within Zone 1 of the DWQ
Neuse River Riparian Buffer. There is no new impervious surface proposed within the 50' buffer.
The single family residence and associated driveway will be constructed entirely on high ground,
more that 50' from Wilson Creek.

MEMORANDUM
DATE: January 31, 2011
TO: Doug Huggett
THRU: Ted Tyndall
FROM: Brad Connell ~"~
SUBJECT: Comments and Recommendations - CAMA Major Permit -Sean Corcoran, Craven
County
The following is my assessment and consequent recommendations of the above referenced
proposal: This proposal involves the shading of 570 ft2 of Section 404 Wetlands and usurps 570
ft2 of Public Trust Shoreline. The waters of Wilson Creek are closed to shellfish harvest. This
waterbody is not a Primary Nursery Area. This proposal should not pose a hazard to navigation.
The docking facility will not exceed the '/ width of the waterbody. This proposal involves the
filling of 5,344 ft2 of high ground. This proposal involves the filling of 4,356 ft2 of Section 404
Wetlands. Assuming that state and federal agencies concur with the proposal, I recommend the
project be authorized as proposed, contingent upon the following conditions:
1) The retaining wall alignment will not go below the normal water level at the time of
construction;
2) The retaining wall must be constructed prior to any backfilling activities;
3) In order to protect water quality, runoff from the construction must not visibly increase
the amount of suspended sediments in adjacent waters;
4) Appropriate sedimentation and erosion control devices, measures or structures must be
implemented to ensure that eroded materials do not enter adjacent wetlands, watercourses
and property (e.g. silt fence, diversion swales or berms, sand fence, etc.);
5) Aground cover sufficient to restrain erosion shall be provided within the shorter of 15
working or 30 calendar days of completion of any phase of grading on cut or filled
slopes;
6) This permit authorizes only the docks, piers, and other structures and uses located in or
over the water that are expressly and specifically set forth in the permit application. No
other structure, whether floating or stationary, may become a permanent part of this

docking facility without permit modification. No non-water dependent uses of structures
maybe conducted on, in or over public trust waters without permit modification;
7) The authorized covered platforms (gazebos) shall be single story, and shall not be
designed to allow for second story use;
8) The authorized gazebo shall not be enclosed. Any material used on the sides shall not
obstruct view and must be permeable to air and water. Screen or wire on the sides along
with benches and knee walls are permitted. Lattice is specifically excluded from being
used under this authorization;
9) No attempt will be made by the permittee to prevent the full and free use by the public of
all navigable waters at or adjacent to the authorized work;
10) The authorized structure and associated activity must not cause an unacceptable
interference with navigation;
11) The permittee will maintain the authorized work in good condition and in conformance
with the terms and conditions of this permit. The permittee is not relieved of this
requirement if he abandons the permitted activity without having it transferred to a third
pa~Y~
12) Any development or land disturbing activity that is considered non-water dependent is
not authorized within 50 feet of the normal water level or landward edge of Coastal
Wetlands unless specifically exempted by Environmental Management Commission
(EMC) Neuse River buffer regulations in place at the time of such development.

Subject: Project Narrative (Major Permit) Corcoran
I M.D.Foley Jr. as contractor of proposed development have a written contract, that is currently in existence
with, Sion Corcoran @ 722 West Wilson Creek Drive in New Bern N.C. 28560. Contract has been in play for
approximately 90 days, to present date.The contract is to obtain a major permit thru the N.C.D.E.N.R. & all
other Major agencies involved through federal, or state for consideration of the appropriate back-fill of one
tenth of an acre of land.This Includes the construction of approximately 240 feet of appropriate retaining wall,
to prevent damage to property with erosion & property loss. A walkway at the East end of retaining wall is also
proposed to start & follow along hillside of ridge,it is approx. 180 feet in length & leading to proposed gazebo.
Gazebo is proposed to be built on existing concrete pad,as it has existed for many years, an only needs
repairman rights. A secure platform built above it thru common engineering is all it would require to become
code. North ot~gazebo,the walkway is proposed to continue several more yards in length,to proposed 12x16
platform that would 95% rest on edge of property with pilings half total length penetrated,bolted & secured
which would allow stability also canoe access. Equipment involved would include,one dump truck,one medium
sized excavator,bobcat loader, afour- wheeler, tool trailer,& one or possibly two work trucks along with one
crew of men covered by all necessary insurance.Hours of operation Mon.-Fri. 8-5 p.m. Please understand thru
exclusive drawings & detail in permit information, that all of the material being used in this project is to be
nothing less than,heavy- duty, premium grade material.I will have to follow up with a Public Engineer,the
owner,Sion Corcoran.He cares dearly,along with myself about the quality of infrastructure. I have received a
verbal approval recently to clear brush,& timber on the proposed lot, as a preliminary step. This does not
include the delineation flags that are currently in existence,tied,& initialed,on trees,by normal water Iine.The
Approval was validated directly from the U.S.Army Corp of Engineers at on-site meeting regarding
Jurisdictional Certificate. I am professional in each & every aspect, clearly understanding the boundaries,rules,
& regulations, that are necessary to comply by Federal & State laws. I Plan to follow them accordingly,as I have
no intentions in breaking them, or interest in any penalties,or fines.0ur goal is to kindly achieve a permit for the
construction of this project & as promptly as possible through cooperatively complying with each or any
interested federal or state agency of question or concern. We realize that any thing beyond a tenth of a acre
actively being filled requires mitigation. We are not interested in anything beyond the tenth of acre, or normal
water line.It is all that we feel would be necessary or needed with the utility & lay out of future home site
design,but much more,least amount of impact possible to environment.We hope the feeling is mutual. We only
wish to take action with proposed design, as preventive measures that are necessary,so that any possible future
ruins to property, impacts on said property are resolved in proper & timely fashion. Upon approval, we feel the
project would approximately take one month start to completion & completely be up for any reviews.
Yours truly,
M.D.Foley
