Norton and Katherine W. Rowlett Page 2 9 PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The project site is located at 8112 Bald Eagle Lane, adjacent to the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (AIWW) and Middle Sound, in New Hanover County To locate the property from Market Street (NC Highwayl7), turn right onto Porter's Neck Road and continue east through the traffic circle approximately 2 miles At the stop sign, turn right onto Bald Eagle Lane and travel south approximately 0 25 miles and the property of interest will be located on the left The property is approximately 0 56 acres and ranges approximately 6' to 15' above normal high water (NHW) The property is currently undeveloped, and was recently cleared of vegetation The approximately 1 00' of shoreline is stabilized by an existing vinyl bulkhead Waterward of the vinyl bulkhead is an area of Coastal Wetlands approximately 10' in width consisting primarily of Smooth Cordgrass (Sparhna altermflora) The property is bordered by residential properties to the north, south and west This property along with the adjacent riparian properties are bordered by what appears to be a "U- shaped" man -made access channel, which connects to the AIWW to the east Dimensions of the access channel measures approximately 700' in length by 40' in width with water depths ranging from approximately 4 to -6' @ normal low water (NLW) Waterward of the existing vinyl bulkhead is an existing access pier, measuring approximately 44' in length by 6' in width, which extends towards the AIWW in an easterly direction The pier terminates into a gazebo, measuring 20' in length by 20' in width An access ramp leads from the southern side of the gazebo onto a floating dock, measuring approximately 24' in length by 8' in width, which runs parallel to the shoreline and access channel The private docking facility was authorized through CAMA General Permit No 65008 -D to the previous property owners (Matthews Family Properties of Duplin, LLC c/o Catherine Hoffman) on 10/23/2014 The application states that the existing docking facility currently accommodates up to two (2) vessels in water depths of approximately —2 5' to —3 5' at NLW (See Sheets 1 and 2 of 3 and Project Narrative) The City of Wilmington /New Hanover County 2006 Land Use_ Plan classifies adjacent waters as Conservation, and the adjacent high ground portion of the project area as Resource Protection The waters of the AIWW and Middle Sound are classified SA -ORW by the Division of Water Resources The area is NOT designated as a Primary Nursery Area (PNA) by the N C Division of Marine Fisheries and they are OPEN to the harvest of shellfish PROPOSED PROJECT: The applicant proposes to reconfigure an existing private docking facility within Middle Sound The application states that a new boat lift and a new two pole mounted double bunk het -ski lift would be added to the existing facility The proposed boatlift would be constructed on the northern side of the existing gazebo, measuring approximately 13' in length by 13' in width and double bunk het -ski lift would be proposed on the southern side of the existing gazebo, measuring approximately 8' in length by 10' in width The application states that the proposed reconfiguration of the existing facility would accommodate up to five (5) vessels in approximately -2 5' to -3 5' at NLW (See Sheets 2 and 3 of 3 and Project Narrative) 10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS: The proposed boatlifts would incorporate approximately 249 sq ft of Estuarine Water and Public Trust Areas The proposed boatlift and het -ski lift would not encroach into the adjacent 15 foot Riparian Corridor Setback Area requirement The proposed lifts would extend approximately 65' into a waterbody measuring approximately 600' in width, which would conform with the 1/4 width distance rule and the established pier length As proposed, the applicant's proposal would not encroach into the 80' federal setback requirement from the AIWW channel The proposed structures would allow the facility to accommodate up to five (5) vessels in water depths of approximately —2 5' to —3 5' at normal low water (NLW) Minor increases in turbidity should be expected during construction Submitted by: Robb L Mairs Date: 12/09/2014 Office: Wilmington Project narrative TO: NC Division of Coastal Management 127 Cardinal Drive Wilmington, NC 28405 Reference: 8112 Bald Eagle Lane Expansion To whom it may concern: Logan Marine, LLC Post Office Box 1552 Wrightsville Beach, NC 28480 NC Contractors License # 74511 david @loganmarine.com 910 - 367 -1348 The referenced property owners, Amanda Norton and Katherine Rowlett, wish to expand their existing private docking facility by adding one boat lift and ond jet ski lift as proposed herein. °® Regards, J.
