9. NARRATIVE DESCRIPTION:
Project Setting
Matthews Point Marina is locat at 2645 Temples Point Road, off SR 1711,
near the Community of Harlowe, in C ven County. The marina facilities are located
on approximately 1.6 acres of land an extend out into Stanford and Mitchell Creeks,
both tributaries of Clubfoot Creek. a original and expired CAMA Major Permit
#191 -87 allowed the expansion of existing marina and has been refined and
modified numerous times. Marina cilities and amenities include a clubhouse,
dockhouse, boat ramp and two docks w 108 slips. The southernmost or main dock
runs parallel to shore, is approximately 650' in length, and has 85 slips of which all
but 10 downstream slips and 12 upstre slips are 30' in length. Those ten slips are
40' slips and were authorized during the ast modification, while those twelve upstream
slips are 25' in length. Along this ma' dock, Stanford Creek ranges between 300'-
360' in width. And at the end of this main dock, Mitchell Creek measures
approximately 1000' in width. The se nd and shorter dock runs directly out into
Mitchell Creek, is approximately 230' ' length, and has 23 thirty-foot slips. Both
creeks are Primary Nursery Areas and ne' er is open to shellfishing.
According to the applicant, during rough weather the bowsprits of the larger
boats bang down on the dock, damag' both the docks and boats. My onsite
inspection in November revealed extensi a damage to the bow of many boats as a
result of Hurricanes Fran and Bertha.
Project Description
The applicant proposes to add 33

dock -- extending out an additional 10' --
pilings near the end of the dock. With
