Sensation Weigh Properties, LLC
Permit 131-06 Modification Request
December 20, 2022
Background
Sensation Weigh Properties, LLC is the owner of commercial waterfront property located at 1501
Sensation Weigh at Jarrett Bay Industrial Park near Beaufort, Carteret County. The project site is
adjacent to the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway and Core Creek. Banks Boatworks, LLC operates as a full
service boatyard and marine maintenance facility at the site. Mr. Gabriel Soriente is the managing
member of both LLCs.
Sensation Weigh Properties, LLC is requesting a minor modification to major CAMA permit 131-06 to
authorize relocation and reconfiguration of a currently permitted marine haul out and docking facility
and relocation of the permitted impervious highground access and apron associated with the travel lift.
The new, proposed design will reduce impacts to coastal wetlands, as well as reduce the currently
permitted dredging impacts.
Major CAMA permit #131-06 was originally issued on October 18, 2006 to then -owner James Flynt, Jr.
The originally permit authorized construction of a commercial marine haul out facility, nine -slip docking
system, shoreline stabilization (riprap), and excavation to -7 feet normal low water (NLW). Authorized
upland development included concrete wash down and approach pads, rinsate recycling system, gravel
drive leading to the boat storage area, building additions, and above ground gasoline storage tank
facility. Current attenuators along the side of the travel lift piers were included to slow down the
currents anticipated during tide changes. It was anticipated that the boat slips would provide a staging
area for boats being hauled or launched on the travel lift as well as provide for transient and overnight
dockage on a limited basis.
Since issuance in 2006, permit 131-06 has been the subject of several regulatory actions. These include
three transfers to new owners (including Sensation Weigh Properties, LLC), four minor modifications,
and two letters of refinement. The permit has been consistently renewed to keep the permit active. The
current permit will expire on December 31, 2024.
Previous permit modifications expanded the docking facility to 10 slips, relocated and reconfigured the
originally permitted travel lift and docking facility, and expanded dredging and highground development
at the site. A minor modification issued on March 5, 2009 authorized the reconfiguration and addition of
one boat slip to the previously authorized docking facility, for a total of 10 slips. Another minor
modification issued on May 14, 2013 to then -owner Moores Marine Boatyard & Boatworks, Inc.

authorized relocation and reconfiguration of a larger travel lift repositioned closer to the southern
property line, with the proposed ten -slip docking facility located immediately north of the travel lift in
an "F" shaped configuration. It also authorized an increase in dredging in the lift drop zone to -9' NLW,
A minor CAMA permit modification on November 13, 2019 authorized a parking area addition, following
issuance of a new low density State stormwater permit (SW8-190814) for the site. The most recent
minor modification to the CAMA permit on December 9, 2021 authorized the expansion of the high
ground development to include a proposed building and gravel driveway to access the travel lift. The
owners subsequently applied for and received a modification to the State stormwater permit to include
the changes authorized by the December 2021 CAMA modification.
CAMA permit modifications also include two letters of refinement. One letter permitted construction of
a sign within 10 feet of the normal high water level (February 8, 2013) and the second letter permitted
placement and grading of fill material on June 25, 2019.
Proposed Permit Modification
Several professionals have been involved in developing the proposed modification to the CAMA permit.
Stature Engineering of Carolina Beach, North Carolina designed the new (proposed) travel lift and
docking system layout and construction drawings, dated 11/22/2022. Earthworks of Murrell's Inlet,
South Carolina provided stormwater planning and permitting assistance and developed an overall site
plan with input from Stature Engineering (revised 11/7/2022). Lanier Surveying Company of
Jacksonville, North Carolina, in consultation with staff of the Division of Coastal Management, provided
an updated wetland survey on 10/20/22. Stature Engineering overlay the proposed reconfigured travel
lift and docking system and dredging area on the wetland survey.
The current proposal and project design reduces impacts from the currently permitted plan for the
travel lift, docking system, and dredging components (permitted by modification issued on May 14,
2013) in several ways. The owners propose to reconfigure and relocate the haul out facility and docking
system more consistent with the originally permitted design (new permit issued on October 18, 2006).
The current request relocates the haul out and docking system closer to the center of the site, resulting
in reduced shading impacts to coastal wetlands.
The total number of proposed formalized slips is also reduced from ten to four. The four proposed slips
are located on the floating platforms of the reconfigured docking system, as shown on the site plan
prepared by Earthworks (one slip on both sides of each floating platform, for a total of four slips). The
formalized slips will be used as staging areas, and for transient and overnight dockage.
The current proposal will also reduce dredging impacts from currently permitted levels. It will affect
approximately the same area of impacted sandy bottom and the same spoil/excavation volume as the

original (2006) permit. The original permit limited excavation to -7' NLW, calculated to limit loss of sandy
bottom habitat in Core Creek to approximately 2,516 square feet, resulting in 186 cubic yards of
excavated material. As noted earlier, the 2009 permit modification increased excavation permitted
excavation to -9' NLW.
The current proposal limits excavation to the haul out facility drop zone, with finished depths of -7'
NLW. Stature Engineering has calculated that the current proposal will affect 2,475 square feet of sandy
bottom of Core Creek and result in 186 cubic yards of excavated sand and mud. This is reflected on the
wetland survey submitted with this proposal and returns the excavation impacts to the level permitted
in the original permit. No excavation is proposed in wetlands. Water depths shown on the wetland
survey and Stature Engineering construction plans are finished depths after proposed excavation. The
dredging spoils disposal site will be determined by the dredging contractor at a future date and
submitted to the Division of Coastal Management for approval prior to beginning dredging.
The proposed upland changes will not add any built upon area (BUA) to the project site. The proposed
upland changes are limited to relocation of the travel lift access and concrete apron as shown on the
Earthworks site plan. All other upland development remains as previously permitted. A stormwater
permit modification request reflecting the proposed upland changes was submitted to the NC Division of
Energy, Mineral, and Land Resources on 11/17/2022 by Earthworks.
Please refer to plans prepared by Stature engineering (11/22/2022) for design, details, and components
for the proposed haul out and docking system and dredging plan. These include travel lift piers, piers
adjacent to the travel lift piers, floating platforms containing four formalized slips, gangways, associated
mooring pilings, riprap, and attenuators. Details for proposed upland work is provided on Earthworks
stormwater/site plan dated revised 11/7/2022.
Note that Core Creek is approximately 560' wide at the project site.
Summary
Sensation Weigh Properties, LLC proposes to modify existing major CAMA permit 131-06 to reflect the
relocation and reconfiguration of a permitted commercial marine haul out facility and docking system
and associated dredging. The proposal includes the associated upland plan as shown on the enclosed
stormwater/site plan prepared by Earthworks. All components of the requested modification (both in -
water and upland) were previously permitted but are now being relocated. The currently proposed
changes will reduce impacts to resources at the site. A CAMA permit modification is needed to build the
proposed changes.
