Everhart, PhD ~~~~'~ DCM, District Manager, Wilmington DATE: November 26, 2007 SUBJECT: Request for Renewal of State Permit No. 91-96 Bald Head Island Limited, LLC.-Deep Point Marina Brunswick County Mr. Bruce Marek is requesting renewal of State Permit No. 91-96 with a maintenance dredging clause. State Permit No. 91-96 was originally issued to Bald Head Island Limited, LLC. on June 3, 1996 for a bulkhead, new upland marina and operations center at Deep Point Marina. It was modified on August 19, 1999 to include riprap and renewed on December 8, 1999. It was modified on May 22, 2000 to include a minor expansion to the marina and renewed again on February 14, 2002. The third renewal was issued on February 23, 2004 and the permit was again modified on July 16, 2004 for the addition of parking spaces. The permit was then amended on April 27, 2006 to change the name from Bald Head Island Management, Inc. to Bald Head Island Limited. A second amendment was issued on September 18, 2006 to change the name to Bald Head Island Limited, LLC. The permit expires on December 31, 2007. Substantial development is continuing on the project but the upland development has not yet been completed. This Office has no objection to the renewal of Permit No. 91-96, however due to ongoing upland development, I would recommend renewal for atwo-year period. The applicant has included check no. 1264 in the total amount of $100.00 for the renewal. cc: WiRO-CAMA Joanne Steenhuis, DWQ Dave Timpy, COE 127 Cardinal Drive Extension, Wilmington, North Carolina 28405-3845 Phone: 910-796-7215\Fax: 910-395-3964 \ Internet: http://www.nccoastalmanagement.net An Equal Opportunity \ Affirmative Action Employer - 50% Recycled \10% Post Consumer Paper Bruce Marek, P.E.

Box 3069 Bald Head Island, NC 28461 910-457-7517 November b, 2007 Ms. Heather Coats NCDENR Division of Coastal Management 127 Cardinal Drive Extension Wilmington, NC 28405 Re: CAMA Permit #91-96 Renewal: Deep Point Marina, Southport, NC Dear Ms. Coats: Bald Head Island Limited, LLC has asked that I pursue the renewal to the Deep Point CAMA Permit #91-96, which is set to expire on 12/31 /2007. Please use previously submitted Bald Head Island Planning 8~ Permits Check # 1264 for the $100.00 fee. We would like the same or similar wordage on maintenance dredging included that is on the recent Indigo Plantation CAMA Permit #41-85 Renewal, if at all possible. I think that the maintenance dredging clause is very beneficial to all parties. As we discussed today, substantial work is under way in building the main ferry passenger terminal, the upland parking areas and the site infrastructure. Closely following will be the marine maintenance building, warehouse/admin building and the dockmaster office. The barge service and the contractor ferry operations remain in continuous operation. Marina slips are• on order for Spring 2008 delivery, and at this time, anticipated opening of the main passenger terminal is for the start of the 2009 season. While the full site development may take several more years for all of the previous permitted buildings, amenities and marina necessities, I believe that the project is progressing tastefully and in a very ecologically sound manner. If you have any questions and/or comments, please call me at 910-457-7517, 799-9245 or cell 228-2484. Additionally, when the Renewal is completed, please have copies faxed to 910-457-7463 8, 910-457- 7220. The correct name for the owner/developer on the permit is: Bald Head Island Limited, LLC. Thanking you in advance for attention to this matter. ,,,~ •~rHAllr~ q,~b 1 uT:a~~e~~,yd~+ ~~n~# ,,, o ~;,:~ ~ ~ :,. ;, ~~~, n e, ~ j ;` r A °' ^ U V a ~ <;1~c !^a ~s ;~ ~~~,.~,~~/~c~.4o~~, ~„r '°~.,Cl~ ar~~rs ~,,.,~° Bruce Marek, P.E.
