Re: Charlotte-Meeklenburg Police Department Lake Wylie Boathouse Fuel System
Dear Mr. McMillan:
Pursuant to our telephone conversation, attached please find the Pre-Construction
Notification form for the above-referenced Project. I have also enclosed two 11" x 17"
and two 24" x 36" sets of the proposed constriction drawings, and a copy of the Project
Description. Please note that although the McDowell Nature Preserve occupies 1,108
acres, the CMPD boathouse facility and fuel system comprises only a very small area
thereof, and that access is restricted to authorized personnel.
For your use in identifying the location of the Project, I have enclosed copies of the
USGS 7.5 Minute Lake Wylie Quadrangle Map and the Catawba-Wateree Shoreline
Management Plan.
Finally, I have enclosed copies of the US Army Corps of Engineers Section 10 permit
and Mr. Steve Chapin's Determination of Jurisdiction. As previously communicated to
Ms. Amy Chapman, in a phone conversation subsequent to the issuance of the above
permit, Mr. Chapin informed me that the Project is not subject to the requirements of
Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, and that Lake Wylie in its entirety in subject only to
Section 10 Rivers and Harbors Act. He stated that a typographical error was made when
Section C of the Determination of Jurisdiction was checked off, and he pointed out that
the Basis of Jurisdictional Determination contradicts the erroneous determination.
Thank you for your assistance in the review and anticipated approval of this application.
Please feel free to contact me at 704-927-8760 should you have any questions, or require
additional information.
With regards,
Mike Novajosky

LAKE WYLIE BOATHOUSE FUEL SYSTEM
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
PROJECT LOCATION:
Lake Wylie @ McDowell Mature Preserve
15222 Fork Road
Mecklenburg County, NC 28278
EXISTING CONDITIONS:
The existing facility was installed in 1985 for the purpose of providing storage of, and
dispensing of gasoline to, the Lake Enforcement Division's patrol watercraft. In its
entirety, the facility spans both sides of the lake's high water line (contour line 570.0').
Above the 570' contour, improvements consist of a gravel roadway widened to
accommodate vehicle parking; a 2,000 gallon double-wall fiberglass underground
gasoline storage tank with related tank top equipment (a submersible turbine pump,
containment sumps, spill bucket, liquid level and leak sensors, manhole liners and
covers); two observation wells; a tank vent stack; a concrete tank slab; flexible double-
wall underground product piping; a transition sump and sensor; underground electrical
conduits and junction boxes (high.- and low-voltage); an asphalt path extending to the
shoreline; an electrical service backboard; path lighting, area lighting, and several runs of
chain-link fencing.
Below the 570' contour, improvements consist of a fixed wooden platform with wooden
handrails extending into the lake on wooden pilings from the edge of the asphalt path; a
hinged wooden walkway extending from the edge of the fixed platform to the most
northerly of the floating boathouse platforms; a transition sump and sensor; three floating
boathouse platforms attached to pilings, with a building on each; flexible double-wall
piping anchored to the underside of the fixed platform and walkway and to the side of the
most northerly floating boathouse platform; a gasoline dispenser and containment sump
on the most northerly of the floating boathouse platforms; electrical conduits and junction
boxes; an emergency shut-off button; platform and walkway lighting; and several runs of
chain-link fencing extending into the lake. A TLS-350 tank level monitor is located
inside the most northerly boathouse.
PROPOSED WORK:
Above the 570' contour, the existing underground gasoline tank is to remain. Appropriate
soil erosion and sediment controls will be installed. The existing concrete tank slab will
be removed, along with all sumps and manholes. The existing observation wells will
remain. Soil will be excavated to the top of the tank. The existing asphalt path and all
underground product piping, electrical conduits, and the transition sump will be removed.
Product piping will be purged prior to removal. Soil will be tested in accordance with the
North Carolina Department of Environmental Resource's (NCDENR) requirements, and
any contaminated soil will be placed either in rolloff boxes or on plastic sheeting,
covered, and rernoved, if required, when lab results are returned.
All tank top equipment (except the existing submersible turbine pump) will be replaced,
including sumps, manhole liners and covers, valves, electrical conduits, junction boxes,
and monitoring equipment (except the TLS-350). All underground piping and electrical
conduits will be replaced. The concrete tank slab will be replaced at approximately the
same size. The asphalt path will be replaced at the same size or slightly smaller. The path
will be edged with anchored 6" x 6" pressure-treated landscape timbers, and backfilled
with soil to alleviate the existing soil erosion problem. The existing path lighting will
remain, and several fixtures will be relocated as necessary. A new electrical backboard
will be installed in preparation for relocation of the electrical service outside of the
gasoline dispenser hazardous area by Duke Energy. A new gasoline dispenser will be
installed on a concrete abutment and a stainless steel dispenser island form. The dispenser
will have a 100' hose and electric retractor. A steel bollard will be installed, the existing
area light fixture and pole will be relocated, and the chain-link fencing and gate at the
shoreline will be modified. Additional chain-link fencing will be installed to prevent
access to the gasoline dispensing equipment by unauthorized personnel.
Below the 570' contour, the existing fixed platform will be replaced by a new wooden
platform with handrails. The new platform will extend approximately 20' further into the
water than the old platform, and its surface will be one foot above the lake's high water
mark. The existing floating boathouse pilings will be removed, and new pilings will be
installed to relocate the docks approximately 20' further into the lake. A new wooden
hinged walkway will be attached to the new fixed platform at a right angle, and will
connect the fixed platform to the most northerly of the relocated floating boathouse
docks. Rollers will be installed on the new fixed platform and walkways to prevent the
fuel dispensing hose from chafing the corners of the structures. Electrical connections
will be made to the panels in the most northerly building, and the entire system will be
tested in accordance with NCDENR regulations.
BENEFITS OF THE PROPOSED NEW FACILTY:
The new facility will accomplish several environmental and functional goals. Relocating
the floating boathouse docks to deeper water will facilitate fueling of the Lake
Enforcement Division's watercraft, since the current water level of the lake makes it
difficult for the boats to access the existing fueling area without bottoming. The length of
the fueling hose will enable fueling from multiple points on the floating docks, and the
additional fencing will further secure the facility from unauthorized access. The
environmental benefit of moving the fuel dispenser off the floating dock is obvious, i.e.,
eliminating the gasoline dispenser and product piping over the water will substantially
decrease the possibility of a fuel spill contaminating the lake water.
