Town of Lake Lure
Morse Park Rip Rap Project
Project Description: Site is located at 2948 Memorial Highway on Town of Lake Lure
property known as Morse Park. Morse Park is a Town recreational area that provides
greenspace and Town facilities for hosting festivals, weddings, and other events. There
are over 6 acres of riverine wetland that make up the Morse Park area. Trails meander
through the park and along the lake shore. The shoreline is sparsely vegetated which
results in accelerated erosion of the shoreline due to wave action from boats and flood
waters during large storm events. The erosion is creating sediment problems for the lake
and also slowly removing land area that the Town uses.
The Town of Lake Lure would like to stabilize 370 feet of shoreline in this particular area
of Morse Park in order to reduce the level of erosion occurring at this site and protect the
shoreline from the impacts that result from wave action and high velocity flood waters
during big storm events. The rip rap will extend just below the water line vertically
approximately 2 feet and horizontally into the lake approximately 4 feet. Some sloping
of the bank will be necessary in order to provide a stable platform to place the rip rap.
Turbidity curtains will be used to control turbidity that will be generated as the work is
being performed. All impacts will be temporary in nature and will only last through the
duration of the project. This would also tie in with an area of shoreline that was armored
many years ago that has remained somewhat stable.

The town would also like to place additional rip rap around the headwall of a pipe that
leads from a small retention pond into the lake (see site plan). Both the pipe inlet at the
headwall and the pipe outlet and surrounding shoreline require armoring due to some
scour that is occurring around the headwall and pipe outlet as lake levels fluctuate.
Approximately 8 linear feet of rip rap will be placed around the pipe inlet structure (4 feet
on each side of the pipe) with rip rap coming up from the edge of the water 2 vertical feet
and extending no more than 4 feet horizontally into the water. On the outlet side of the
pipe which flows into Lake Lure, approximately 21 linear feet of rip rap will be placed
around the pipe outlet and surrounding shoreline to reduce scour that is occurring due to
fluctuating lake levels and wave action from boats.
All work will be performed in accordance with a sediment and erosion control plan that
will be submitted to the Town of Lake Lure for review and approval prior to the start of
work and shall be in accordance with the General Permit under which this project is
authorized.
The Town Environmental Management Officer will oversee the project and report any
issues if they arise to the Asheville Regional Office.
