Smith Dock Project
Narrative
Introduction
Mr. and Mrs. Smith are the owners of residential property located adjacent the Newport River at 144
Grady Dale Lane in Beaufort in Carteret County. They propose to construct a dock with one platform and
one boat lift to obtain water/boating access. They are also requesting authorization to place fill in the
back yard of an existing residence to level the property and drain water away from the house. A
retaining wall to confine the fill and prevent spillage into wetlands is also proposed.
Site Description
The project site measures 62,172 square feet (1.43 acres). A single-family residence and shed are
located on the property. Vegetation at the site consists of trees and other landscaping vegetation, lawn
grass, and wetland vegetation. The approximate elevation of the site above Normal High Water (NHW)
is +3 '.
The total length of the shoreline measured along NHW is 198 linear feet. An oyster rock is located
parallel to the shoreline approximately 370' from NHW. Scattered oysters are observed landward of the
oyster rock and for a distance of about 10' to 20' waterward of the oyster rock. No submerged aquatic
vegetation was observed during a survey completed in February 2021.
Coastal wetlands border the shoreline, extending waterward for about 200' to 300' from NHW. A fringe
of coastal wetlands as shown on project plans is also located along the northern border of the site.
Aerial photos show additional coastal wetlands on the waterward side of the oyster rock (see enclosed
drone aerial photo).
The Newport River at its narrowest at the project site is about 6,200' wide. The project site is not
located in a designated Primary Nursery Area.
The project site is located within the extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ) of the Town of Beaufort and is
zoned R-20. Single-family residential uses are located adjacent to the property. Adjacent riparian
property owners are Daniel and Carla Facciola to the north and Jeanette Holland to the south. The Smith
residence is served by a ground absorption sewage disposal (septic) system, with drinking water
provided by the Town of Beaufort water system.
Project Description
The owners propose to construct a 6' wide pier extending 570' from the proposed retaining wall. The
pier will measure 320' in length measured from the waterward edge of the coastal wetlands nearest the
shoreline of the Smith property, as shown on project plans. A platform measuring 20' x 20' and boatlift

measuring 12.5' x 13.5' are proposed for location at the waterward end of the docking facility. Including
the platform, the docking facility will extend 113' waterward of the oyster rock and attendant coastal
wetlands.
There are no existing piers 100' or longer in length along the same shoreline of the project site as
measured from the waterward edge of coastal wetland vegetation. By building the proposed pier 113'
waterward of the coastal wetlands the Smiths will be establishing a pier head line on this shoreline.
Water depths at the waterward end of the proposed structure measure -1.8' Normal Low Water (NLW).
The project engineer has calculated that 1,752 square feet of coastal wetlands will be shaded by the
proposed docking facility. 360 square feet of shell bottom will be similarly impacted.
The proposed docking facility will be located 57' from the adjacent riparian property to the north and
55' from the adjacent riparian property to the south. It will be located 122' from the adjacent docking
facility to the north and 528' from the adjacent docking facility to the south.
In addition to the docking facility Mr. and Mrs. Smith propose to place fill material in non -wetland areas
of the back yard to improve drainage near their residence. Approximately 174 cubic yards of fill will be
placed in the coastal shoreline AEC to be contained by a retaining wall measuring 226' in length, with a
top width of 12". The elevation of the top of the retaining wall, along with backfill, will vary up to 4.5'
NLW as required to facilitate drainage and to best ensure preservation of the existing trees. Exposure
height of the retaining wall will be <_12" on the waterward side of the property. Due to limited height
exposure tiebacks are not anticipated to be needed.
The size of the area to be graded, filled, or disturbed is 14,250 square feet.
Construction Methods
Dock construction will employ conventional marine construction techniques. One barge with
pile -driving equipment stored in deep water will be used for construction of the dock extension.
All construction activities will occur during periods of water depths sufficient to avoid barge
from resting on or disturbing bottom. A mini -excavator will be used with protective mats to
construct the section of pier located over wetlands.
Construction of the retaining wall and placement of fill will be accomplished with a small
trackhoe, dump truck, and front-end loader to be stored on highground.

8. PROJECT SUMMARY:
The applicant is proposing to construct a 1-slip docking facility with pier, platform,
boatlift and a retaining wall along the high ground. There is currently a single family
residence with driveway and typical lawn grasses on this property. No written concurrence
and no fee split for DWR GC 4175 was required.
9. Project Description
The existing 1.4-acre (62,172sf) tract is located at 144 Grady Dale Lane, Beaufort, Carteret
County. The project area is found by following the Highway 70 extension from Morehead City
to Beaufort, crossing the new bridge and turning left onto highway 101 in Beaufort. Continue on
highway 101 for approximately .51 miles (2700 feet) until you reach Copeland Road. Turn left
onto Copeland road and follow for .33 miles (1,781ft) until you see Grady Dale Lane on the left.
The property will be located at the end of this road and slightly to the right.
The property shoreline is not stabilized, has an elevation is 3' above NHW and has a 198' x 200'
+ expanse of coastal wetlands along the shoreline. The property has 198' of shoreline along
Newport River.
The waters of Newport River adjacent to the project areas are classified as "SA, HQW" by the
Division of Water Resources, are not classified as a primary Nursery Area and according to the
maps provided by the Shellfish Sanitation Section of the NC Division of Marine Fisheries, the
waters of Newport river are predominately open to shellfish harvesting adjacent to the proposed
project. No SAV were observed within the project area. There are no known historic or
archaeological areas of value known within the project sites. Water depths within the project area
range from .2 to 1.8 depending on location.
10. Proposed Project
The applicant is proposing to construct 226' retaining wall along the high ground as well as a I-
slip docking facility with pier, platform and boatlift into the Newport River.
The 226' retaining wall would be located landward of coastal wetlands, have a width of 12
inches, a height of 4.5' above normal low water and fill a total of 14,250 sf of high ground.
The proposed 6' wide pier would extend from the retaining wall for 570' (525' from NHW) over
coastal wetlands, a 20' x 6' section of oyster and would then intersect a 20' x 20' 1-head
platform. The applicant is proposing a 13' x 14' boatlift along the north side of the platform.
Water depths within the slip area are -1.8' nlw. All work would not exceed a maximum of 545'
from NHW and remain within the existing pier head length of the neighbor's pier to the south.
11. Anticipated Impacts:
The development would incorporate and shade 1,182 sf of shallow bottom habitat, disturb 14,250
sf of high ground, shade and incorporate 2,544 of coastal wetlands and shade and incorporate
186 sf of shellfish beds. The proposed docking facilities would not interfere with navigation and
would remain within the existing pier head length of the adjacent pier to the south. There should
be no impacts to wetlands, shellfish or SAV resources.

James Wickliffe Smith, Jr. and Jane McDuffie Smith are the owners of
residential property located adjacent the Newport River at 144 Grady
Dale Lane, Beaufort, NC (Carteret County PIN # 730601289665000).
They propose to construct a pier measuring 6' wide by 570' long
measured from normal high water (NHW). A platform measuring 20'
by 20' is proposed for the waterward end of the dock. One boatlift is
proposed for placement adjacent the platform. Low water depths at
the location of the proposed boat lift measure -1.8' normal low water
(NLW).
The dock extends 113' waterward of an oyster rock and 320' from the
waterward edge of marsh that borders the property, as shown on the
attached project plan. Scattered oysters are observed landward of
the oyster rock and for a distance of about 10' to 20' waterward of the
oyster rock. No submerged aquatic vegetation was observed at the
site during a survey completed in February 2021. The project site is
not located within a Primary Nursery Area.
The owners also propose to construct a retaining wall/bulkhead to
contain high ground fill to be placed in non -wetland areas of the
waterfront yard of the existing residence. No other highground
development is proposed.
