8. PROJECT SUMMARY:
The applicant proposes to:
• Replace 1,500 LF of bulkhead and construct a 6-foot wide shore side dock along the
new bulkhead,
• Construct a 6-foot wide by 10-foot long floating kayak dock adjacent to the bulkhead,
• Construct a bridge 8 feet wide and 50 feet long over the existing canal,
• Construct a walkway 8 feet wide and 475 feet long over Coastal Wetlands,
• Construct two pavilions, composting restrooms, and approximately 1,500 LF of 4-foot
wide walkways on the adjacent spoils island,
• Remove two large earthen berms and adjacent docks to reconfigure the three existing
boat ramps to five new boat ramps,
• Install two new piers equipped with wave attenuators to replace the earthen berms,
• Relocate portions of the eastern end of the existing access road and re-pave these areas
and portions of the existing parking area with pervious concrete, and
• Remove 3,534 SF of Tuffstone /Pavestone installed along the northwestern side of the
existing access road.
Project Setting
The proposed development will occur on properties owned by the State of North Carolina
that are located at the southwestern end of the Washington Baum Bridge, in Manteo, Dare
County. The subject properties are located in the far northeastern corner of the
approximately 1,525 acres the state owns between US 64/264 in Manteo and the village of
Wanchese, which is located approximately 3 miles south of the highway. The properties are
bordered by the Roanoke Sound on the east side; US 64/264, the Washington Baum Bridge,
and the Pirates Cove subdivision to the north; and large undeveloped tracts of Coastal
Wetlands to the south and west.
The WRC's existing boat ramp facility is located on a strip of land between US 64/264 and a
50-foot wide man-made canal that is located 100 - 200 feet south of the highway. A 2,100-
foot long asphalt road provides access to the facility. The access road starts at the traffic
light at the west end of the Washing Baum Bridge and turns east, paralleling the highway. A
475-foot long and 7-foot wide strip of Tuffstone /Pavestone has been installed along the
north side of the access road near the entrance. The access road is situated 15-20 feet north
of the man-made canal that starts at the shore of Roanoke Sound and extends 1, 600 feet west
towards the Town of Manteo. A mowed grassy area separates the canal and the access road.
Citizens utilizing the existing boat ramps park trucks and boat trailers in the large asphalt
parking area located on the eastern half of the facility. The parking area is separated from
the access road by a grass Swale 10 - 30 feet wide.

Field Investigation Report
Wildlife Resources Commission - Manteo, Dare County
Page 4
The existing boat ramp area contains three 12-foot wide concrete ramps separated by two
piling-supported docks, each one 5 feet wide and 50 feet long. Earthen berms located on the
north and south sides of the boat ramps create a basin to protect recently launched vessels.
Each berm is 160 feet long, 15 feet wide, 3 feet above normal water level and vegetated with
mowed grasses and weeds. The basin side of the southern berm is equipped with a dock that
is 5 feet wide and 160 feet long, while the basin side of the northern berm has a dock that is
5 feet wide and 187 feet long. In addition, three separate fishing /crabbing docks extend
from the northern berm and dock out to and around the piling structures supporting the
Washington Baum Bridge.
The north side of the canal has been hardened with vinyl bulkhead while and the perimeter of
the earthen berms protecting the existing boat ramps have been hardened with wooden
bulkhead. The southern shore of the canal has not been hardened and is comprised of a
Black Needlerush (Juncus roemerianus) Coastal Wetland containing occasional fringes of
Cord Grass (Spartina altiniflora), and Salt Grass (Distichlis spicata). None of the shoreline
of the large tracts of state-owned land located south and west of the subject properties have
been hardened. The majority of the shoreline of the Pirates Cove marina located to the north
of the subject properties has been bulkheaded.
The WRC has utilized the extended pilings installed on the canal's bulkhead to create 31
numbered boat slips. Slip number 1 is situated approximately 400 feet west of the existing
boat ramps and the slips extend approximately 900 feet west toward the end of the canal.
Each slip is provided utilities via water spigots and electrical outlets mounted on the pilings.
Slips 1 - 12 have been marked "RESERVED" and the author has observed at least one
commercial fishing vessel regularly moored in one of these slips.
Water depths average 5-6 feet through the canal and the adjacent waters of the Roanoke
Sound. No SAVs were observed in the canal, boat ramp area, or immediate shoreline of
sound.
The undeveloped southern parcel is comprised of large expanses of Coastal Wetlands
punctuated with a large spoil pile/island created during historic dredging of the canal in
Roanoke Sound. The Coastal Wetlands in this area is comprised of a monoculture of Black
Needlerush (Juncus roemerianus).
The 8.98-acre spoil pile/island where some of the proposed development will occur is
located 350 feet south of the existing boat ramps. The undeveloped spoil island contains
scattered Live Oaks (Quercus virginiana), cedars (Juniperas species), bayberry bushes
(Myricaceae species), and indigenous grasses and weeds. The majority of the spoil island is
elevated approximately 10 feet above normal water level. Portions of the eastern shore of
the island along the Roanoke Sound have steep erosion escarpments up to 8 feet tall.

Project Description
The applicant proposes to replace the 1,500 LF of bulkhead installed on the north side of the
existing canal and then construct a 6-foot wide dock landward of the new bulkhead. The
WRC also proposes to install a 6-foot wide by 10-foot long floating kayak dock adjacent to
the bulkhead. The kayak dock will be installed approximately 750 feet west of the existing
boat ramps, adjacent to the area where the access road enters the truck and trailer parking
area. To ensure the kayak dock does not interfere with navigation along the canal, a notch
four feet deep and five feet wide will be excavated into the bulkhead to allow the installation
of the proposed gangway/ramp providing access to the floating dock.
The WRC proposes to install a handicap accessible bridge over the canal that will be located
450 feet west of the existing boat ramps. It will connect to an elevated walkway leading to
the large spoil island located south of the existing boat ramps. Because the bridge will be
only 6 feet above normal water level, the WRC proposes to relocate 10 of the existing 31
boat slips to the 300-foot section of bulkhead that is immediately east of the proposed bridge.
The proposed bridge structure will be 8 feet wide, 50 feet long, and include a concrete apron
and ramp system that will allow physically challenged patrons to easily access the bridge and
walkway from the adjacent access road. The bridge will connect to an elevated walkway 8
feet wide and 475 feet long that will traverse the Coastal Wetlands located between the canal
and the spoil island located south of the existing boat ramps.
Proposed development on the spoils island includes the construction of an educational
pavilion, an observation pavilion, restrooms, and approximately 1,600 LF of walkways
connecting the various structures. The walkways will include approximately 90 feet of
elevated wooden walkway 8 feet wide, 680 feet of 4-foot wide porous concrete walkway, and
820 feet of 4-foot wide compacted gravel walkway.
The proposed educational pavilion will consist of a sunken 28-foot diameter circular concrete
seating area surrounding a 6-foot diameter fire pit. The fire pit will include a large stainless
steel chimney. The pavilion will be covered by a 36-foot by 36-foot "living roof." Please
see the applicant's narrative for a very detailed description of the proposed roof structure.
The proposed observation pavilion will consist of a 20-foot by 20-foot wooden deck area
surrounding an 8-foot diameter circular wooden seating area. This pavilion will be covered
by a 21.5-foot by 21.5-foot roof.
The WRC also plans to install an 11-foot by 8-foot restroom facility equipped with a 264-
gallon composting septic system.
To reconfigure the boat ramp area, the WRC plans to remove the two large earthen berms
and adjacent docks and replace them with wave attenuators installed under two new piers.
The new pier that will be installed on the south side of the boat ramp area will be 8 feet wide
and 157 feet long, while the pier on the north side will be 6 feet wide and 187 feet long.
The applicant proposes to install riprap under the first 65 feet of each pier and then install

Field Investigation Report
Wildlife Resources Commission - Manteo, Dare County
Page 6
wave attenuators /breakwaters under the last 93 feet of the southern pier and 118 feet of the
northern pier. The wave attenuators will extend from the bottom of Roanoke Sound to the
underside of the proposed piers and will range in height from five feet near the end of the
boat ramps to six feet at the end of the piers. The applicant proposes to construct the wave
attenuator /breakwater so that there is 1.5 inches of open area for every 18 inches of the
structure.
Removing the earthen berms will provide the WRC with room to replace the three existing
12-foot wide ramps with five ramps - one 14 feet wide, and four more 14.5 feet wide. The
14-foot wide ramp will be located in the middle of the reconfigured ramp area. Two floating
docks, each one 8 feet wide and 54 feet long, will be installed on either side of this middle
ramp. Two sets of 14.5-foot wide ramps will then be constructed on the north and south
sides of the new floating docks. Although two 14.5-foot wide ramps are being installed side-
by-side, in reality these ramps will function as one 29-foot wide ramp. The piers and
breakwaters described in the previous paragraph will then be located north and south of sets
of 14.5-foot ramps - which will complete the ramp reconfiguration.
Prior to installing the ramps, the WRC plans to prepare the new boat ramp area by installing
a base of "6 inches of #5, #57, or #4 stone over 12 inches of small riprap or surge stone."
The ramps, which will be poured at the existing facility, will be allowed to cure for 21 days
and then they will be pushed into place onto the stone base. Once installed, the new ramps
will extend approximately 35 feet beyond normal water level to a depth of 5 feet at the end
of the concrete ramp.
In addition to reconfiguring the boat ramp area, the WRC also proposes to relocate portions
of the existing access road and then re-pave portions of the road and the existing parking
area with pervious concrete. These efforts will move 270 LF of access road an additional 5
feet north away from the canal and replace 12,192 SF of impervious asphalt with 15,095 SF
of pervious concrete.
Finally, the WRC proposes to remove the 3,534 SF of Tuffstone / Pavestone installed on the
north side of the access road near its intersection with US 64 / 264.
9. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS
It is anticipated that the proposed development will cause the following impacts:
The removal of the two existing earthen berms will result in the temporary increase in
turbidity of the open waters of the Roanoke Sound.
Installing the proposed elevated walkway will result in the shading of 700 SF of Coastal
Wetlands/ Estuarine Shoreline AECs and 3,100 SF of Coastal Wetlands AECs. These same
areas will be temporarily disturbed during the construction of the structure.

• The handicap access structures associated with the proposed bridge will create 273 SF of
impervious area within the 30-foot buffer.
• The proposed road relocation and parking area replacement will remove 12,192 SF of
impervious asphalt from the 75-foot Estuarine Shoreline AEC, including 7,485 SF of asphalt
currently located within the 30-foot buffer. The impervious asphalt will be replaced by
15,095 SF of pervious concrete, including 6,379 SF located in the 30-foot buffer.
• The proposed boat ramp improvements will result in the disturbance of 2,592 SF of
Estuarine Waters /Public Trust Area AECs and the shading of 3,080 SF of the same AECs.
• The proposed development will result in the disturbance of 56,046 SF, the dredging of 4,820
SF, and the shading of 9,520 SF of the 75-foot Estuarine Shoreline AEC.
• The proposed development on the spoil island will result in the disturbance of at least 8,047
SF of upland area and the shading of 1,758 SF of uplands by the roofs that will be installed
on the two pavilions.
• The proposed development will reduce the number of available slips from 31 to 10 and will
subject moored vessels to increased wave action because the relocated slips are situated
closer to the mouth of the canal.
• The height of the proposed bridge will reduce the number of vessels that have historically
utilized the canal as a safe mooring area during tropical storms.
• Removing the Tuffstone / Pavestone form the north side of the access road will reduce the
areas that can be utilized for parking.
• The installation of a fire pit in the proposed educational pavilion will increase the fire risk to
the large expanses of wetlands located to the south and west of the spoil island.
• A review of available maps indicates that no archaeological resources are located on or
adjacent to the subject property.

Please accept our summary of the Design Development Phase for the new Washington Baum
Bridge site improvements in Manteo, NC. The following Scope of the Work items were per-
formed by the JKF Architecture Design Team during the Advanced Planning Phase:
1. Conducted meetings with the Owner to review programmatic needs for the project and
review possible solutions.
2. Prepared cost estimates for construction options including development of construction
cost, site development, design fees, and contingencies.
3. Met with CAMA on August 22, 2005, to discuss permitting issues related to the project.
SUMMARY
The Design Development Phase includes design for new facilities to be located on an existing
'spoils' island located near the Washington Baum Bridge Boating Access Facility in Manteo, NC.
The goal of the design is to develop public facilities that take advantage of existing resources,
views, and vistas, while minimally impacting the existing environment, and being sustainable in
nature.
The design responds to the project goals by connecting parking/boating access area with new
site amenities located on the existing 'spoils' island via a new pedestrian boardwalk. In addi-
tion to the new boardwalk, the design includes a new Outdoor Educational Pavilion, a new
Observation Pavilion, and a new composting toilet facilities. The design takes great care to
utilize the existing topography and minimize site disturbance.
Due to the proximity of the site to the Roanoke Sound, the project will require CAMA approval
for compliance to regulations.
Program:
The program consists of (7) integrated components.
1) Anew pedestrian boardwalk/ramp will connect the existing asphalt parking area and boat
access area to the undeveloped 'spoil' island. The boardwalk/ramp will be accessible to
Persons with Disabilities. The boardwalk has been located far enough up-channel to allow
10 30' boat slip access to the canal., A 6' minimum height about OHW mark will be main-
tained allowing canoe/kayak access up channel.
2) The island will require new walkways accessible to Persons with Disabilities. These walkways
will connect the various new pavilions on the island.
3) Anew Outdoor Educational Pavilion with seating and a fire pit will be developed.
4) Anew Observation Pavilion with a covered seating area is planned for the center of the
island, near the highest elevation on the island.
5) Men's and Women's restroom facilities utilizing composting toilets will be provided.
b) Replacement of existing bulkheads along entire length of existing channel.
7) Replace and reconfigure existing boat ramps and breakwaters.
Site issues:
The building of a new pedestrian boardwalk connecting the parking areas to the un-
developed island will present a number of critical site issues. An existing bulkhead will
be replaced with new sheet piling and an integrated boardwalk. Because the new
boardwalk will cross an environmentally sensitive area of wetlands, the project will re-
quire CAMA approval for compliance to regulations. The new pavilions, restrooms,

Design Development Narrative
Page 3
and pathways will be located on the island such that their disturbance of the island are minimal.
Power and water are not currently available on the 'spoils' island. All new walkways, restrooms, and
pavilions on the island will need to be accessible to Persons with Disabilities.
Pedestrian Boardwalk
The new pedestrian boardwalk and ramp will connect the existing parking area with an undevel-
oped island. The boardwalk is approximately 800 feet long by 8 feet wide. Treated wood piles will
be driven into the marsh. The construction will be treated wood.
New Walkways on the Island
All of the new walkways on the island are to be 4'-0" wide by 4" thick ABC compacted stone with a
edge material either side of the walking surface. Accessible paths shall be constructed of porous
concrete in lieu of gravel. No length of the walkways may exceed 200 feet in length without having
a 5'-0" diameter handicapped turnaround. Approximately 1400 linear feet of new walkways are
planned.
New Outdoor Educational Pavilion
The Outdoor Educational Pavilion is a 30' x 30' covered space with three tiers of precast concrete
seats. The concrete floor slopes to a floor drain. All of the seating centers on a fire pit. Smoke
would exit the space via a large oculus. The opening would also allow light into the space below.
Precast concrete columns support laminated wood beams and rafters. Steel connections would
anchor the framing to the columns. The Outdoor classroom would not have any walls. Wind would
be blocked by existing and new vegetation, eliminating the need for cumbersome screens which
could require frequent maintenance.
The roof of the Educational Pavilion would be 'green roof', with a waterproof membrane over the
plank decking, drainage system and a 4" of medium of engineered soil would be provided for the
plants to grow. A plastic sheet would be located beneath the medium to hold it in place.
Exterior walls of the oculus would be clad in stainless to match the copper drip-edge located
around the perimeter of the 'green' roof.
The Outdoor Educational Pavilion would have no electrical, mechanical, or plumbing components.
New Observation Pavilion
The Observation Pavilion is primarily a viewing area to observe the surrounding landscape and wild-
life. The structure is completely made of wood including pre-engineered roof trusses.
No utilities are required for this component.
New Restrooms
Both the Men's and Women's restrooms will be equipped with composting toilets. Such toilets use
no water, eliminating the need for a septic field. The composed material would require removing
on a periodic basis. These units are pre-manufactured units. The composting waste is suitable for as
a natural fertilizer. The Owner will utilize the compost for fertilizer on various plant species in and
around the site.
Each restroom would be equipped with a lavatory utilizing potable water run from the mainland via
a 1 "PVC waterline.
Photovoltaic cells mounted to the exterior of the restroom building would provide
minimal electric light to the interior spaces and to a localized, low output area light ^
outside the building.
Drinking fountains will be provided.

Design Development Narrative
Page 4
The restroom building is planned as apre-manufactured unit.
To the extent possible, all electric requirements will be met using photovoltaic cells.
GREEN ROOF DESIGN
Media:
Composition of the underlying medium will also influence load and plant specification, depending
on weight, water absorption capacity and drainage rates. The ideal medium is relatively light
weight, retains water well, but is also porous and freely draining. Keep in mind that the more water
the medium retains, the more weight it adds to the roof. The medium must also supply and absorb
nutrients, anchor the plants, provide enough weight to avoid floating when wet or being blown off
during and affer establishment, and retain most of its volume. Generally, the ideal extensive roof
medium is a blend of sandy or granular materials that balances water absorption with adequate
porous surface. A variety of natural and man made materials can be mixed to achieve the requisite
balance, including lava, volcanic scoria, lelite, pumice, diatomaceous earth, sand, expanded and
active clays, expanded shale, gravel, bricks and tiles. Vermiculite and perlite can be used in con-
junction with other materials, but lightweight aggregates are both more expensive and less environ-
mentally friendly than purely natural media and must be looked at in an economic context, as well.
In addition, all green roof media must be able to withstand the freeze-thaw cycles of colder cli-
mates. Crushed concrete should be avoided entirely as it can clog the roof's drainage layers.
North Carolina is home to Stalite, a manufacturer of expanded slate for green roof media. We are
fortunate to have them close by as freight is a major cost in green roof media.
It is certainly true that the deeper and more organic the medium, the more planting options there
are available. Even still, a predominantly organic medium is not recommended for extensive green
roofs, for while it increases fertility, it also introduces a set of potential problems, including decreased
pore space, higher water retention, increased nutrient loading and reduced medium depth over
time, caused by decomposition. Any significant decrease in medium depth will change the design
of the green roof and possibly create a need for additional substrate. Medium depth should be rela-
tively constant over a long period of time; a high organic medium content makes this impossible.
Increasing medium depth and moisture levels also makes the roof more hospitable to weeds.
Hence, while many tree seedlings will not survive in a 3 inch (7.5cm), non- irrigated system during a
dry period, they will become a problem if irrigation is provided, and the roof will need to be main-
tained accordingly. In turn, this has budgetary impacts that need to be made a part of the specifi-
cation, recognizing that there will be after-installation costs for maintenance of the site and the
plant material. If access to the roof is limited, maintenance will be even more expensive.
Recent research has shown that moisture, even more so than depth of substrate, determines a
plant's growth patterns and survivability. Many plants will survive in shallow substrates if there is regu-
lar irrigation or natural moisture. If the client's desire is to have more diversity and include herba-
ceous perennials, however, a greater medium depth and some type of irrigation system are essen-
tial.
Plants:
The planting palette for the green roof will consist of hardy succulents. They are optimal for green
roof due to their ability to withstand periods of drought, resist wind desiccation and still provide orna-
mental value. The two genera most commonly used in the Carolinas are Delosperma and Sedum.
Plants should be planted meadow style to blend in with the surroundings. The differ-
ent varieties will be planted in small groups of 5-9 plugs spaced at 2 plugs per square
foot. See attached spec.

Design Development Narrative
New Bulkhead/Boardwalk/Boat Ramps/Breakwater
Page 5
A new vinyl bulkhead, approximately 1,500' long, shall be constructed along the full length of the
existing canal to replace the existing deteriorated bulkhead. New piles shall be driven, sheet piling
installed, and new "deadman" installed for the bulkhead. This shall necessitate excavation approxi-
mately 20' back to install deadman (Landside). New sheet piles will be driven just outside of the ex-
isting and then the existing will be removed.
Relocation of part of the drive will be done to accommodate replacement and new porous paving
installed for relocated road to increase permeability.
The new bulkhead shall incorporate a new pedestrian boardwalk and kayak launch at the western
most end of the canal. The Kayak launch will require that the canal bulkhead be recessed back
from its current line 4' by a width of 5' to facilitate a hinged ramp down to the floating kayak
launch. This area will be excavated to allow for this recessed (4'x 5' x 5' deep below NWL). This is
done to limit the extent by which the floating kayak launch will be in the canal.
The first 300' of bulkhead along the canal shall have extended timber piles for the designated dock-
ing of boats. This will allow for 10 parallel boat slips at 30' each. The existing canal can currently ac-
commodate approximately 30 boats, some of which have lifetime agreements with previous land
owners to continue use. A portion of the 10 new slips will be designated for their continue use.
While the installation of the New Pedestrian Boardwalk across the channel will restrict large boat
access to the upper portion of the channel, there will still be enough clearance for kayaks, canoes,
and small watercraft to access the upper canal. The Owner desires to preserve the existing up
channel area by eliminating larger boats.
The three existing boat ramps shall be removed and five new boat ramps constructed in their place.
This will require widening of the boat basin area. This shall be accomplished by eliminating the 2 ex-
isting earthen breakwaters to the north and south of the basin. New sheet vinyl breakwaters shall be
installed to protect launch area and have an integrated dock for the loading and unloading of
boats after launching. By removing the earthen breakwaters, the actual water area will be increase
in the basin.
Minor dredging may be needed at the Southeast corner of the existing boat basin due to sediment
build-up. We estimate an approximate area of 400 square feet to a depth of one to two feet.
The new breakwaters at the boat basin shall be constructed of slotted sheet piles to allow flow
through the basin. An integrated boardwalk/dock will be installed above the breakwater. The slots
shall be 1 1 /2" wide at approximately 18" on center. They extend from the Normal Water Line to
within 6" of the water bottom. These will be cut in the field depending on the water depth.
Two floating wood docks will be constructed between the new boat ramps. These will be hinge con-
nected to the concrete at the top of the ramps.
The following page indicates the overall development areas and disturbance areas within the 30"
and 75' AEC zones.
