4. Project Description and History
4a. Describe the existing conditions on the site and the general land use in the vicinity of the project at the time of this application: *
The site is located within the Jarrett Bay Marine Industrial Park and is an active construction site. A construction entrance and silt fence have been installed and vegetation clearing has
begun. Wetlands are present around most of the outer edges of the site and the center and northern portion of the property is mostly uplands. Wetlands impacts were permitted in 2016
under the previous general permit but have not yet been installed.
The northern neighbors are a boat repair facility and marina, and to the northeast, are another boat repair facility and a granite supplier. The property sits on the intersection of Core Creek
(AIWW) and Eastman Creek, so most of the property boundary is shoreline.
4b. Have Corps permits or DWR certifications been obtained for this project (including all prior phases) in the past?
Yes No Unknown
If yes, please give the DWR Certification number or the Corps Action ID (exp. SAW-0000-00000).
SAW-2007-02987, DWQ 071500, CAMA 5-08
4f. List the total estimated acreage of all existing wetlands on the property:
-17
4g. List the total estimated linear feet of all existing streams on the property:
0
4h. Explain the purpose of the proposed project:
The purpose of this project is to provide safe navigation and access to the water to the Beaufort and neighboring communities. The proposed wetland impacts and dredging were
previously permitted under a GP 291 and 401 WQC, and this is a renewal of that plan. There are no changes in design.
4i. Describe the overall project in detail, including indirect impacts and the type of equipment to be used: *
The project details have not changed from the previous GP 291 & 401 WQC. The 7.81 ac of dredging will be divided into four subsections with differing bottom basin elevations. The
southern most portion will be excavated to -4 It MLW. The largest section central in the footprint will be dredged to -8 ft MLW. There are two smaller subsections in the northernmost portion
of the dredge area and these will be excavated to -9 It MLW and -10 It MLW.
The 30-wet slip docking facility has not changed from what was previously permitted. The upland work also has no change from the last permitted plan. It includes a series of upland
retaining walls, parking for guests and amenities such as a clubhouse, pool, on -site shop, etc. Other buildings will provide space for vessel maintenance, offices and other necessary areas
to maintain the facility.
Sediment and erosion control measures will be put in place. The limits of disturbance will be cleared of vegetation. The access road and utilities will be installed. Once roads and utilities
are installed, building construction will occur. Track hoe, loader, dump truck, bob cat, and other standard construction equipment will be used. For the excavation, typical dock construction
and bucket to barge equipment, backhoe, excavator, barge and bobcat/bulldozer will be utilized.
