8. PROJECT SUMMARY: The applicant proposes to construct a wetslip for a catamaran sailboat.

Stephen Persche & Elsa Derochers
Beaufort County
Project Setting
The project area is located off of SR1377, at 605 Blackbeard's View, adjacent to
Bath Creek, near the Town of Bath in Beaufort County North Carolina. The applicant
proposes to add a wetslip to the existing docking facility. The docking facility straddles
the property line and is jointly owned by the Persches and Derochers.
Existing structures on the project site consist of (2) single-family homes with
bulkhead along the shoreline. A docking facility consisting of a pier with a T-head on the
terminal end, boathouse and associated catwallcs, a small boatlift, and a wetslip at the
terminal end of the pier. Various walkways and a small covered sitting area are present as
well.
Vegetation on the project site consists of lawn grasses, mixed hardwoods, and
ornamental shrubs and bushes. Many of the adjacent properties upstream and
downstream, have existing bulkheads and various combinations of piers and docking
facilities. Bath Creek, an inland Primary Nursery Area, is classified as SClNSW by the
North Carolina Environmental Management Commission and is closed to shellfishing.
Water depths at the project site range from -2' near the bulkhead to -6' at the terminal
end of the pier and is approximately -6' where the wetslip is proposed.
Project Description
The applicant proposes to add six additional pilings adjacent to the downstream
side of the boathouse to create a =40' X X25' wetslip.
Anticipated Impacts
The construction of the wetslip will result in the shading of (1,000 ft2 of
creek bottom shading. The project as proposed will result in localized, short term,
turbidity as a result of the construction activities.

6 Additional Pilings Project
9/10/07
Project Narrative:
This project is to add 6 new pilings adjacent to the existing boathouse. The pilings will
be approximately 12" diameter, 30' long, 10' above normal water level. Pilings will be
driven via bazge. The outside dimension of the pilings will be 40' x 25'. One (or more)
single pilings may be replaced by 3-piling dolphins as recommended by contractor.
The existing pier is on the Persche / Desrochers property line and is a shared pier. At the
end of the pier, Descrochers have pilings for a sailboat and a piling for a skiff. The
Persche side at the end of the pier has a covered boathouse with a boatlift and an exposed
skiff lift.
