PROJECT SUMMARY: The applicant proposes to remove an existing docking and the construction of a new docking facility in Lee's Cut. Chris Knott Page 2 9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The project site is located at 34 Pelican Drive, adjacent to Lee's Cut, in the Town of Wrightsville Beach, New Hanover County. To locate the property from the Wilmington Regional Office (WiRO) travel east from Eastwood Road approximately 3 miles towards Wrightsville Beach. From the AIWW drawbridge, continue to travel east on West Salisbury Street (US HWY 74) for approximately one mile. Turn left onto Pelican Drive and travel east. The property of interest will be located on the left. The property is approximately 0.2 acres with approximately 62' of shoreline frontage along Lee's Cut, which is currently stabilized by a timber bulkhead. The elevation of the property averages approximately 6'above normal high water (NHW). The applicant currently maintains a three -story single family residence on the property. Upland vegetation consists of maintained lawn grass and ornamental landscaping. There are currently no Coastal Wetlands on the property. The applicant currently maintains a private docking facility in Lee's Cut. An existing private pier, measuring approximately 24' in length by 6' in width extends in a westerly direction towards the deep water of Lee's Cut. The pier terminates into an uncovered "L- shaped" platform, measuring approximately 16' in length by 16' in width. Extending from the platform is an access ramp which leads onto a 20' in length by 8' in width floating dock, which runs in the same alignment as the access pier. There is an existing boatlift, measuring approximately 13' in length by 13' in width, which is located on the northern side of the floating dock. There are two (2) existing mooring pilings which are located on the southern side of the floating dock. The existing docking facility currently accommodates up to two (2) vessels. The Wrightsville Beach Land Use Plan classifies adjacent waters as Conservation, and the adjacent high ground portion of the project area as Developed. The waters of Lee's Cut, in Greenville Sound are classified as SB #, by the NC Division of Water Quality. These waters are NOT designated as Primary Nursery Area (PNA), by the NC Division of Marine Fisheries and they are CLOSED to the harvest of shellfish. . PROPOSED PROJECT: The applicant proposes to remove an existing docking and the construction of a new docking facility in Lee's Cut. Once the existing facility is removed, a new access pier, measuring approximately 18' in length by 6' in width would extend into Lee's Cut. The pier would terminate onto a covered "L- shaped" platform, measuring approximately 16' in length by 24' in width, which would be oriented towards the north. An access ramp would then lead onto a new floating dock, measuring approximately 26' in length by 6' in width, which would run in the same alignment as the access pier. A new floating dock, measuring approximately 26' in length by 8' in width would be installed from the waterward end of this floating and oriented towards the north. As proposed, the floating docks would create an "L- shaped" configuration. A new boatlift, measuring approximately 13' in length by 13' in width would be installed on the landward side of the new floating dock configuration. The application states that the existing water depth at the location of these proposed structures range from approximately -4' to -T at normal low water (NLW). The proposed construction would provide docking space for three (3) vessels at this location. 10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS: The proposed floating docks and boatlift would incorporate an additional 1,025 sq. ft. of Estuarine Waters and Pubic Trust Area, essentially within an area currently usurped by the existing docking structures. The proposed docking facility would not encroach into the adjacent 15' Riparian Corridor Setback Area requirement. The docking facility would extend approximately 74' into a waterbody, which measures approximately 500' across. This distance conforms to the 1/4 width rule and the locally established pier head line. Minor increases in turbidity should be expected during construction.
