Describe the existing land use or condition of the site at the time of this application (residential, undeveloped, etc.): The land use is an existing residence. The shoreline is naturally vegetated and stable for approximately 50%of the shoreline. The remaining shoreline has steep banks that have had increased amounts of erosion since a tree fell on the bank and the Property Owners Association required that tree to be pulled up(Nov. 2019), removing stabilizing vegetation in that process. There are some large boulders along the shoreline, one of which basically divides the problem area from the non-problem area. Allegedly remnants of former bulkhead/boathouse that burned down more than a decade ago under previous ownership. 6. Describe proposed work(include discussion as to how hardening of shoreline has been avoided, or why it is necessary): The shoreline has not recovered,so the intent is to stabilize the shoreline and install a dock for water access as work is required to be done for the stabilization. The remaining shoreline is preferred to remain naturally vegetated as the banks are stable and this provides beneficial ecological habitat with minimal chances of erosion problems along these non-steep banks developing. It is so stable and low/accessible to the lake that we currently are able to use it for kayak access. The stabilization will occur from the boulder north to the next residence, allowing for any required gap as not able to tie into neighbor's seawall without adding significant fill. After construction of bulkhead and dock,and neighbor repairs retention wall, would like ability to place riprap for stabilization between our property lines. Per Franklin County Planning and Inspection Requirements,a bulkhead/dock will be installed per Chapter 36 of the 2006 NC Building Code. The bulkhead along the shoreline will be between 30 and 35 feet approximately,with riprap being added between property line for further stabilization as needed. The bulkhead will be under 5'tall and is estimated to be about 50 inches. The dock is proposed to be approximately 10 x 12'with up to 8 pilings 7 x 8 inches. The bulkhead will adhere to the shoreline as much as possible with minimal fill added for support in the undercut banks for better stabilization. FORM:SSGP 09-2020 Page 4 of 11 7. Will work be conducted from land? X❑ From water? X❑ 8. Total amount of impacts below the normal pool lake level/Normal Water Level Permanent impacts(including all excavation, backfill, rip rap, retaining walls, etc.) in square feet: Approximately 73.2 square feet (Approximately 1-2' bulkhead width x 35'of shoreline stabilization length and up to eight pilings approximately 7"x 8" for dock) The intent is to build the seawall as close to the existing shoreline as possible. Temporary impacts in square feet: 0 sq ft. 9. Total amount of impacts above the normal pool lake level/Normal Water Level and 50 feet land-ward Permanent impacts(including back fill, excavation, rip rap, retaining walls, etc.) in square feet: Approximately 73.2 square feet (Approximately 1-2' bulkhead width x 35'of shoreline stabilization length and up to eight pilings approximately 7"x 8" for dock) The intent is to build the seawall as close to the existing shoreline as possible. Temporary impacts(temporary clearing,construction corridor) in square feet: 0 sq ft as use of mechanized equipment is not anticipated due to steep terrain of hillside. If equipment were to be used, it may be done along side of residential yard to the hillside but unable to go within 50'of riparian corridor of lake down that hill and no significant land disturbance expected. If vegetation is disturbed, it will be seeded. Anticipate, if disturbed access area of approximately 30'x 200', as 600 sq.feet of residential yard disturbance more than 100' away from banks. Movement of materials within riparian corridor will be manually and with the assistance of a temporary chute for the fill itself. 10. Please describe the vegetation above the normal pool lake level/Normal Water Level and 50 feet landward to be impacted (number of trees,for instance): Because of the significant slope, work is currently proposed to be done manually only. No tree removal is anticipated. The vegetation is a mixture of herbaceous and tree/shrub growth that is maintained low to the ground per POA requirements. No significant disturbance of vegetation within the riparian corridor with the exception of along the banks during bulkhead installation is anticipated_ 11.

Shelton Sullivan Please give a brief project description below and include location information.* II Shelton,or to whom this message is received by. Hope this message finds you well. Project is proposed at residence in Lake Royale-Franklin County. Shoreline is currently naturally vegetated but-10+'was severely damaged by POA required fallen tree removal last fall. Limited vegetation has returned with frequent disturbance by boats. Stabilization is desired in conjunction with dock installation to resolve. Proposed as an approximate 16'x 10'dock along eroded portion of shoreline,with the 16'being parallel!to shoreline.May require fill and grading of steep hillside for construction and engineering.May require removal of few trees and/or shurbs,to allow for equipment access but avoiding to extent practicable. Construction proposed for as soon as possible.Working to confirm USACE permit requirements,expected RGP 80,but links are broken on website and any information on that subject and correspondence between DEQ and USACE would be helpful.
