Dear Schoninger:
Ok-°aay
Reference your application for a Department of the Army permit to construct a new section
of the downtown Riverwalk, including bulkhead, docking, and shoreline stabilization between
Harnett and Cowan Streets, adjacent to the Northeast Cape Fear River, in Wilmington, New
Hanover County, North Carolina. In addition, please reference the revised plan sheet S6 of 11,
dated December 12, 2012, that details the cantilever of the proposed floating dock resulting in no
permanent piles placed seaward of the Corps'of Engineers Harbor Line.
Your proposal has been reviewed and found to be consistent with the provisions and
objectives of the CAMA -Corps Programmatic Permit process (copy attached) for construction
activities that receive authorization from the State of North Carolina. Therefore, you may
commence construction activity in strict accordance with applicable State authorization and the
approved plan. Failure to comply with the State authorization or conditions of the Federal permit
could result in civil and/or administrative penalties.
If any change in your work is required because of unforeseen or altered conditions or for any
other reason, plans revised to show the change must be sent promptly to this office and the North
Carolina Division of Coastal Management prior to performing any such change or alteration.
Such action is necessary as revised plans must be reviewed and the authorization modified. Your
Department of the Army permit will expire on December 31, 2016.
