SUBJECT: CAMA Drcdge/Fill Permit Application for Robert, Schwartz, Craven County,
North Carolina.
Biologists with the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWR.C,) reviewed the
permit application with regard to impacts on fish and wildlife, resources. The project site is
located at 157 Ducks Way adjacent Brices Creek in New Bern, NC. Our comment,,; are provided
in accordance with provisions of the Coastal Area Management Act (G.S. 1, 13A-100 through
I, 13A- 128), as amended, Sections 401 and 404 of the Clean Water Act, as amended, the
Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.), theFish and Wildlife
Coordination Act (48 Stat. 401, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661 et seq.), the Magnuson -Stevens
Fishery Conservation and Management Act, (FCMA), as amended (16 U.S.C. 1801 et seq.), and
the Migratory Bird Treaty Act (16 US.C. 703-71.2 et seq.).
The applicant proposes to relocate a non -conforming structure on his property as well as
construct a boat ramp and dock within Brices Creek. The structure will retain the sane
dimensions, only move to another portion of the property, A 5' by 48' bog slat pier is proposed
with a 9' by 2 V platform. The proposed boat ramp would be 17' wide by 20' long, extending
approximately 7' waterward into Brices Creek. Two 20 vinyl retaining walls on either side of the
ramp would offer stability. Brices Creek at this location is classified C Sw NSW by the
Environmental Management Commission and. is subject to the NC Division of Water Resources
Neuse Basin Buffer Rules.
The NCWRC has reviewed the information within the application package. While the NCWRC
does not, believe the project will have significant impacts on wildlife resources if constructed
appropriately, we cannot support the construction of a boat ramp that terminates in water depths

current design does not attain -3' NV%FL.
