9 PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project site is located at 117 White Heron Cove Road, adjacent to Old Topsail Creek, in Pender County
To locate this property travel north on US -17 for approximately 14 miles and turn right onto Country Club Road
Travel approximately 0 7 miles to Olde Point Road and turn right Take the next right onto Olde Point Loop
Road in approximately 1 1 miles White Heron Cove Road is the second right off of Old Point Loop Road The
subject property will be on the left in approximately 0 2 miles
Existing structures on the project site include a single family residence and private docking facility The project
site is approximately 0 76 acres and is vegetated primarily with domestic grasses and ornamental landscaping
The project site has approximately 242 feet of shoreline frontage along Old Topsail Creek
The existing docking facility consists of an existing access pier that extends into Old Topsail Creek measuring
approximately 28 ft in length by 6 ft in width An access ramp leads from the pier, to the west, onto a floating
dock measuring approximately 50 ft in length by 6 ft in width running parallel to the shoreline A CAMA
Permit was not found for the existing docking facility but according to aerial imagery it has been in place since
at least 2003 and appears to be consistent with current regulations (See Sheet 1 of 2)
The Pender County 2006 Land Use Plan classifies adjacent waters and high ground portion of the property as
Resource Protection The waters of Old Topsail Creek and the AIWW are classified SA -HQW by the Division
of Water Quality They are NOT designated as a Primary Nursery Area (PNA) by the N C Division of Marine
Fisheries and they are CLOSED to the harvest of shellfish
PROPOSED PROJECT
The applicant proposes to install a boatlift expanding the existing docking facility to a private three (3) slip
docking facility in Old Topsail Creek (Nixon Creek) The applicant states that a boatlift, measuring 13 ft in
length by 13 ft in width would be installed on the eastern side of the existing access pier The proposed new
docking configuration would provide docking space for up to three (3) vessels within existing water depths
ranging from approximately -2 0' to -4 0' at normal low water (NLW) (See Sheets 1 through 2 of 2)
10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS
The proposed structures would incorporate approximately 169 sq ft of Estuarine Waters and Pubic Trust Area
on the eastern side of the existing docking facility The proposed structure would extend approximately 28' into
a waterbody, which measures approximately 120' across This distance would conform to both the % width rule
and the established pier lengths The proposed structures would not encroach into the adjacent 15' Riparian
Corridor Setback Area requirement Minor increases in turbidity should be expected during construction

Dear Committee,
We would like to install a boat lift at our dock so that we can get our boat out of the water
when not in use. I understand that our current floating dock is acting as two slips and that
we must make this application tole able to install the third slip we would like to have at
this time. Thank'you for your help and understanding in this matter.
