9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The project site is located at Salisbury Street, adjacent to Kenan's Creek, on Harbor Island, in the Town of
Wrightsville Beach, New Hanover County. To locate the project site from Wilmington take US Hwy 74/76 to
Wrightsville Beach. Travel across the drawbridge and keep left on West Salisbury Street/ US 74. Travel
approximately 3/4 mile; at the base of the bridge turn right onto Lookout Harbour Way. The property of
interest will be located on the right. The property is adjacent to Kenan's Creek and coastal marsh on the
east and an expansive coastal marsh to the west. The property is adjacent to Lookout Harbor
Condominiums to the south and the Town of Wrightsville Beach property along West Salisbury Street to the
north. The applicant maintains a two-story single family residence on the project site.
Highground vegetation consists of maintained lawn grass and ornamental landscaping. The lot is
approximately 0.5 acres in size and has an average elevation of approximately 5' above normal high water
(NHW). The project site has 130 linear feet of shoreline frontage stabilized by an aging asbestos bulkhead.
According to the application, this asbestos bulkhead was constructed in 1973. Located on the landward
side of the bulkhead is an existing 10' wide concrete walkway that spans the entire shoreline. Waterward of
the existing bulkhead on the west side of the property is an expanse of coastal wetlands averaging
approximately 75' in width consisting primarily of smooth cordgrass (Spartina altemiflora). Waterward of the
existing bulkhead on the east side of the property is an area of coastal wetlands. This area of coastal
wetlands adjacent to the bulkhead ranges from 20' in width to 25' in width from north to south and consists
of high and low marsh vegetation. Located within this area of wetlands are remnants of broken up concrete
slabs that appear to be placed along the shoreline for stabilization. Extending in a westerly direction from
the bulkhead towards Kenan's Creek is an existing private docking facility, which consists of an access pier,
covered platform and floating dock.
The Town of Wrightsville Beach Land Use Plan classifies adjacent waters and high ground area of project
site as Conservation. There are no known archaeological sites located in the project vicinity. The waters of
Banks Channel are classified SB by the Division of Water Quality. They are NOT designated as a Primary
Nursery Area (PNA) by the N.C. Division of Marine Fisheries and they are CLOSED to the harvest of
shellfish.
10. PROPOSED PROJECT:
The applicant proposes to construct 130 linear feet of new timber bulkhead located waterward of the
existing bulkhead. The proposed bulkhead would be located no more than 2' waterward of the existing
bulkhead. The applicant states this alignment is necessary to avoid impacts and disturbance to the existing
deteriorating asbestos bulkhead. The application states that the existing concrete walkway and cap would
be entirely removed. The application states that a new timber bulkhead (approximately 130' in length) would
be constructed using a waterjet. The application also states that the remnants of broken up concrete slabs
would be removed from the marsh by use of a backhoe loader from the highground.
11. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS:
The proposed new timber bulkhead will result in the filling of a total of approximately 260 square feet of
coastal wetland fill. Of the 260 square feet of coastal wetland fill, approximately 170 square feet would
consist of primarily Smooth Cordgrass (Spartina alterniflora) located on the western end of the property and
approximately 90 square feet of sea oxeye (Borrichia frutescens) salt meadow Hay (Spartina patens) on
the north end of the property. Approximately 1,300 sq. ft of existing impervious concrete would be removed
from the coastal shoreline 30'buffer and replaced with associated backfill and tie-back anchor system. The
area would then be vegetated for stabilization in an area of approximately 2,340 sq. ft. with the Estuarine
Shoreline. The applicant's proposal to construct the wall using a water jet has the potential to increase
disturbance, sedimentation and turbidity into the adjacent marsh. Minor increases in turbidity should be
expected during construction

The enclosed CA41A Major Permit application for 114r. Al i tchell Baker, 107 W
salisbury St_ Wrigh tsville Beach, N, C. 28480, is to install a new treated
timber bulkhead two feet waterward of an existing deteriorating asbestos
bulkhead that was installed in the early 1970's
The site has coastal marsh that grows up to the existing bulkhead, but we
are requesting a two foot offset for the new installation so we can
encapsulate the old asbestos in its current location and not have to remove,
handle and dispose of it in a landfill With 130'of frontage, we will be
incorporating a maximum of 260 sq. ft. of marsh. (2x130)
