Dear Mr. Hervey:
Reference your application for a Department of the Army permit to expand an
existing docking facility in waters of/adjacent to Harlowe Creek, at 3114 Mill Creek
Road, in Newport, Carteret County, North Carolina.
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, attached Federal special conditions, the approved plan, and the
following special condition:
1. In order to further protect the endangered West Indian Manatee, Trichechus
manatus, the applicant must implement the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's
Manatee Guidelines, and strictly adhere to all requirements therein. The
guidelines can be found at
https://www.fws.gov/raleigh/pdfs/ManateeGuidelines2017.pdf
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, 2021.
