The Site I~:zistinl; Conditions ' The subject property is a 171 acre tract located on the Croatan Sound and is accessible by NC ,45 in Skyco, on Roanoke Island, Dare County, North Carolina. "hhe project area (proposed development area) is a 33.(~ acre section within the subject tract. Sheet 1 depicts the entire tract. Sheet 2 focuses on the proposed development area.

Over the course of several generations, the land and the surrounding waters have been farmed and fished extensively. Today, Skyco is a village of low density residential houses. fhe waters of the Croatan Sound adjacent to the property are rel'en-ed to as Ashbee I-larbor. ' The name Ashbee Harbor is derived from a former prominent land owner, Solomon Ashbee. ~~~ith his death in the early 1800'x, his wife sold a large portum of the sound to sound tract to Marcus Lafayette Midgett who relocated here from Bodie Island and Stumpy Point. A partner ' in the project, Johnnie M. Robbins ,lr., is Mr. Midgett's great, great grandson. Mr. Robbins' mother resides across the street from the property in her grandparents' home. Johnnie Robbins lives on the parcel immediately adjacent to the proposed pr~~ject. The Robbins' family history ~~ tied to this land. ?Marcus Lafayette Midgett's tract included portions of the currently proposed project. His land ~nclud~d accc~s t~, Iloward's Crock (Listing Canal /~). and Charles Creek (the l~,xisting Canal PAGE 3 i~ i' CAMA MAJOR PROJECT NARRATIVE-ASHBEE HARBOR CLUB C ~ ). Charles, for whom the canal is named, was Marcus' eldest son. As the Midgett family grew, land was subdivided amongst the children. All of the landowners maintained the existing "ditches or creeks" in order to keep their boats. Aline Midgett, Marcus l.~itayette's great granddaughter, states: "l uncle Charles could get to a ditch that would come to his place. Everyone had a ditch ' through the marsh to get to the sound and their nets because that was their living fishing and farming. Marcus' son, Louis Napoleon was the big farmer in the family. Louis Napoleon had the farm in front of the Blivens' that runs out to the present highway. This farm was worked by his children: my father, Marcus Lafayette Midgett, and his brother, I.eo. They farmed this property, it was their living, and they maintained a ' subsistence lifestyle. There was a canning house, milk house, cattle, smoke house, and fishing. It (the property) was their everything: fruit trees, nut trees, fig trees, grape vines, product all year. Fall of the year was occupied by fishing: salt fish, smoke fish, ' herring roe, and drum. Also, oysters were caught in the fall of the year and dumped by the cartload in the shade. "These oysters were gotten from the oyster beds located to the south of Skyco nearer the saltier waters of Oregon Inlet, on the other side of the ' Roanoke Marshes, and Broad Creek. The most productive bars were down south of Wanchese, and in the waters of Broad Creek. They never took oysters in Ashbee ~ 1-Iarbor or the ditches connecting to the property, because there were none." PAGE 4 Late 1930's view of airport which occupied the site. CAMA MAJOR PROJECT NARRATIVE-ASHBEE HARBOR CLUB During the Depression, Dare County took over the use of the property and established the first airport on Roanoke Island. The County paid the taxes on the land, but the family maintained ownership. The County allowed the National Park Service to developed two runways on the property. With the airport's relocation from the property, trees began to reclaim the land and a few residences were built. Beginning in the winter of 2004, DWR utilized the site as a dredge spoil retention location. As mentioned above, the state deposited dredge spoils from Federal navigation channels in Shallowbag Bay and the Roanoke Sound. Presently, the soils on the site are being mitigated, and grading is proceeding. Description of the Proposed Project Ashbee Harbor is aproposed-boating oriented community with 46 individual homesites. The proposed project involves the creation of an upland basin for a maximum of 46 boat slips that is consistent with CAMA's rules and regulations regazding "Marina Development." A preliminary design was completed in the spring of 2007 and a scoping meeting with the various permitting agencies was held at the LAMA regional office in Washington, NC on Mazch 13cn At the before mentioned meeting with the various permitting agencies many issues were discussed and concerns about some of the issues were expressed by various representatives at the meeting. As a result of that meeting, the scope of the project, including the reduction of coastal wetland impacts and size of the mazina basin, has been greatly reduced. Many of the revisions to the project aze described in greater detail below.

I PAGE 6 CAMA MAJOR PROJECT NARRATIVE-ASHBEE HARBOR CLUB Natural Resource lmpacts During the scoping meeting, permitting agencies identified several concerns regarding natural resource impacts that should be minimized. Thus, as a result of the agencies' concerns, the project has been designed accordingly to minimize potential impacts: • Reduction in canal length by approximately 700 linear feet. This reduction is proposed to enhance flushing. • Lot owners without water frontage will have access to the basin azeas and boat slips by designated easements. • Installation of bulkhead on the landward side of the canals to alleviate agency concerns of side slope Bluffing and associated turbidity. • Removal of the 6-foot wide, 8881ineaz foot boardwalk that covers (partially shades) 5,128 squaze feet of jurisdictional wetlands. • Impacts to jurisdictional wetlands will be mitigated by an on-site creation of wetlands at a 2:1 disturbance to impact ratio, or in-lieu impact fees to be paid to NC Ecosystem Enhancement Program (NCEEP). • Impacts to jurisdictional wetlands will be limited to conversion of wetlands to public trust waters and minor shading. There will be no wetland filling. • A grading plan has been developed to avoid stormwater runoff to surface waters and coastal wetlands. Stormwater will be collected and treated in green areas (inf`iltration basins) in the center of the property. • The density of the project was reduced from 50 to 46 homesites. Zoning and Land Use Planning ' In November 2006, the development by the Dare County Planning Board was found to be consistent with Dare County's R-l zoning requirement and land use plan. R-1 zoning is one of the most restrictive zoning classifications in the county and primarily limited to low-density residential development. PAGE 7 ' CAMA MAJOR PROJECT NARRATIVE-ASHBEE HARBOR CLUB ' Low Density Certification ' The ro~ect will not to exceed 25% im ervious lot covers e, and Low Densit Certification has P 1 P g y been applied for. See Sheet 2 for more detailed information on calculations and individual lot coverages. Stormwater/Grading Plan ' An innovative stormwater/ adin lan has been desi ned for the ro~ect. The lan ca tunes all gT' g p g p J p P ' the stormwater from the perimeter of the property (highest elevations of the project) and directs the stormwater inward to a series of road side swales. These swales will then direct the water into infiltration basins located closer to HWY 345 on eastern portions of the property. This ' system of swales will allow the water to travel a greater distance, allowing sediment and pollutants to be removed from the water and allowing for the infiltration of the stormwater. In high rain events when overflow might occur, a swale system will direct the overflow of pre- , treated stormwater to the surrounding 404 wetlands. The filtered water will have to meander a great distance through the surrounding marsh to reach the waters of Ashbee Harbor. The Marina ' Description of the Marina ' Vital to the proposed community is the marina. This project is called a "marina" due to CAMA regulations stating: ' "...a marina is any publicly or privately owned dock, basin or wet boat storage facility built to accommodate more than 10 boats and providing permanent or temporary ' docking space, dry stack storage, haul-out facilities or repair services." However, this project only includes an upland basin/canal to provide boating access to the Croatan Sound for the community's 46 property owners. The only associated active marina PAGE 8 t CAMA MAJOR PROJECT NARRATIVE-ASHBEE HARBOR CLUB ~ -- ' service is a proposed pump-out station. Thcre will be no fueling facilities, haul-out or repair service areas, concentration of boats, and transient slips typically associated with a "marina". t However. a Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasures Plan will be adopted for safe marina practices due to the operation of powered vessels. Marina Impacts ' After consulting with the various pernlitting agencies in a Scoping Meeting held on March l 3, 2007, we have included the following items specific to the design of the marina: • Restrictive Covenants limiting total boat slips to 1 slip per residential lot in the ' subdivision (46 slips), • Implementation of a No Wake Zone throughout the natural canals and the proposed ' upland basin areas (No Wake signs to be posted), • Addition of a Pumpout Station for boats within the basin, ' • No on-site fuel pumps (can be included in restrictive covenants if necessary), • Allowed uses limited to residential; historical uses have included residential, ' agricultural, industrial (dredge spoil containment) and commercial (airport), • Marina to be managed by a Home Owners' Association, and ' • Channel markers in Canals A and B, at least every 2501inear feet with red and green high visibility reflective tape. Siting and Design of the Marina In the siting of the proposed marina, all efforts were made to minimize alteration of shorelines and wetlands, and other natural resource impacts. Further, state and federal regulations dictated all aspects of the design. Supporting the siting of the proposed marina, l SA NCAC 07H. 0208 (b)(5)(A) states: "Marinas shall be sited in non-wetland areas or in deep waters (areas not requiring PAGE 9 LAMA MAJOR PROJECT NARRATIVE-ASHBEE HARBOR CLUB dredging) and shall not disturb valuable shallow water, submerged aquatic vegetation, and wetland habitats, except for dredging necessary to access high-ground sites. The four alternatives far siting marinas are listed in the order of preference for the least damaging alternative alterative; marina projects shall be designed to have the highest of these four priorities that is deemed feasible by the permit letting agency." The proposed marina is unable to meet the first alternative, a marina "requiring no alteration of wetland or estuarine habitat." However.. the proposed marina is able to meet the siting requirements for the alternative that is given second highest preference: an upland basin site requiring dredging for access when the necessary dredging and operation of the marina will not result in the significant degradation of existing fishery, shellfish. or wetland resources and the basin design shall provide adequate flushing by tidal or wind generated water circulation." "the proposed marina includes the excavation of 2.6 upland acres and includes 2,409 feet of linear canals that are to serve as the boat basin. No further wetlands are proposed to be excavated or impacted by the marina basin. The waters adjacent to the proposed project in Ashbee Harbor and the surrounding Croatan Sound are deep water and do not require dredging; thus, valuable shallow water habitats will remain undisturbed. The only View of "Canal Connection A" dredging of jurisdictional waters that is proposed is the excavation of 3,161 sq.ft. of total Section 404 wetlands, including 2,47? sq.ft. of coastal wetlands and 689 sq.ft. ofnon-coastal (non-riparian) wetlands. These wetland areas will be converted to public trust waters for access to the high ground site of the proposed marina.

At Canal B, to reduce the impact and as suggested by View of "Canal Connection I3" the permitting, agencies, we propose a low profile bulkhead on both edges of the wetland cut. This bulkhead will protect the existing marsh fringe from erosion while allowing the normal tidal flooding of the area that is necessary for the marsh to maintain its characteristics. The navigable channel/bulkheaded cut is 25' x 12l'. A channel less than 25' would be a navigational hazard. Prior to this current proposal as presented at the March 13, 2007 scoping meeting, three Cana] cuts were proposed impacting 8,523 sq.ft. of coastal wetlands. Two connections are critical for egress and ingress for safety reasons and for flushing (a flushing model has been developed and will be discussed in detail later in this document). 1'he existing canals have natural curves and are bordered by tall grasses, mainly black needle rush (Jur~cus r~~rneriur~r~s), marsh hay (S~arlirTU pu~ens) and some giant cordgrass (SJ~arli»u ul~e~•t~iflora). Visually, these tall grasses make navigating View of limited navigational width "Canal A" PAGE 1 1 CAMA MAJOR PROJECT NARRATIVE-ASHBEE HARBOR CLUB the canals difficult and because of their «tidth, the canals only allow one wav boat traffic. "l~hus, two points of access are required. Canal A will be dedicated for boats coming into the marina and Canal B will be dedicated for boat traffic leaving the marina. The depth, -5' m~~l. of the proposed basin is not deeper than the connecting channel depths and the waters that they View of limited navigational width "Canal B" connect to. With the canals designed to reduce future dredging needs, future dredging needs are not to be expected. But, on-site areas have been identified to acarmrnodate disposal needs for future dredging if they arise. In addition to the pumpout station throughout the marina, notices will be posted prohibiting the discharge of any waste from boat toilets and explaining the availability of information on the pump-out. The marina will only provide dockage for the 46 residential land owners. Managed by the homeowner's association, the marina's regulations will only permit one boat per lot. Further, there will be no transient slips. The maximum number of boats in the marina will be limited to 46. PAGE 12 View of limited navigational view "Canal A" due to tall grasses and winding canal. 1 CAMA MAJOR PROJECT NARRATIVE-ASHBEE HARBOR CLUB In closing, it should be clear that there is a need for the preferred alternative (the original proposed 3 canal cuts to promote flushing and access to the open water). The scope of the proposed project has never-the-less been greatly reduced from the originally proposed for natural resource impact minimization reasons. With the limitation of the canal cuts to Canal A and B, the removal of coastal marsh has been minimized to only 2,472 sq.ft. These impacts have been reduced from earlier impacts totaling 8,523 sq.ft. Two canal connections are required for navigational safety and flushing. It is very important to note that the proposed upland marina does not require any further excavation of wetlands. The only wetlands proposed to be impacted are for the canal cuts. In the design of this project, every effort has been made to minimize the natural resource impacts of the proposed marina. Canal Flushing Two hydrodynamic model simulations were performed by ENSR, a leading worldwide environmental services firm, to describe the flushing characteristics of the two canal configurations proposed: Disconnection of Canal C from the main horseshoe-shaped canal and a shortening of the western extent of the horseshoe-shaped canal by 700 feet. (2 connections) 2. Disconnection of Canal B and Canal C from the main horseshoe-shaped canal and a shortening of the western extent of the horseshoe-shaped canal by 700 feet. (1 connection) Used in the hydrodynamic simulations were bathymetry, summertime wind conditions, and the tidally varying water elevation boundary. The results of the two-canal and single-canal configuration aze illustrated in Figures 1 and 2, respectively. ENSR findings state: "The results of the two-canal configuration, illustrated in Figure 1, indicate that flushing is generally good. This is pariiculazly true in the azea of, and to the west of Canal B. Enhanced flushing in this part of the main canal is due to increased water movement into the main canal from Canal B, in the two-canal configuration. The flushing simulation for the two-canal configuration indicates favorable results (Figure 1) in that a maximum of only 3% of the original concentration is predicted to remain in the main canal after 10 days of simulation time." PAGE 13 CAMA MAJOR PROJECT NARRATIVE-ASHBEE HARBOR CLUB 1 In regards to the single canal system, ENSR's reports: "The results of the single-canal configuration, illustrated in Figure 1, indicate that flushing is generally poor. This is particularly true in the western portion of the main canal, as it extends away from the confluence with Canal A. The flushing simulation for the single-canal configuration indicates that a maximum of 53% of the original concentration is predicted to remain in the main canal after 10 days of simulation time." In closing, ENSR states: "The two hydrodynamic model simulations indicate that flushing is generally poor in the single-canal configuration and generally good in the enhanced two-canal configuration." Shellfish, Saltwater (S) Waters, and Water Quality Harvestable Resources CAMA regulation 15ANCAC 07H.0208 (b)(5)(E) states: "To protect water quality shellfishing areas, marinas shall not be located within the areas where shellfishing harvesting for human consumption is a significant existing use or adjacent to such areas if shellfish harvest closure is anticipated to result from the location of the marina. In compliance with Section 101(a)(2) of the Clean Water Act and North Carolina Water Quality Standards adopted pursuant to that section, shellfish harvesting is a significant existing use if it can be established that shellfish have been regularly harvested for human consumption since November 28, 1975 or that shellfish apparently are propagating and surviving in a biologically suitable habitat and are available and suitable for harvesting for the purpose of human consumption. The Division of Marine Fisheries shall be consulted regarding the significance of shellfish harvest as an existing use and the magnitude of the quantities of shellfish which have been harvested or are available for the harvest in the area where harvest will be affected by development." PAGE 14 CAMA MAJOR PROJECT NARRATIVE-ASHBEE HARBOR CLUB In accordance with the above CAMA regulation, Skyco Development LLC requested that North Carolina Division of Marine Fisheries (DMF) conduct a biological investigation for oysters in the creeks adjacent to the property. On July 19, 2006 DMF staff Greg Allen, Joe Cox, and Ginger Wright sampled Charles Creek (Canal C), an unnamed creek (Canal B), Howards Creek (Canal A) anal the adjacent waters in the Croatan Sound approximately 500 feet from the shoreline with patent tongs. The determination was made in the letter (Attachment A) from Greg Allen, Shellfish Biologist, NCDMF, to Lee Tugwell, Partner. Skyco Development LLC, on July 24, 2006 that: "Results from the current DMF biological investigation along with 2005 NCDMF shellfish mapping data, concluded there is no known harvestable shellfish in the waters within 500 feet of the parcel on land sampled. The nearest known harvestable shellfish area is located 1.8 miles south to Baum Creek on the southwest side of Roanoke Island." With the determination of NCDMF that there are "no known harvestable shellfish" the proposed upland marina site does not damage any harvestable shellfish resources. From a historical perspective, Johnnie Robbins' mother, Aline Midgett Robbins, who has lived all her life adjacent to the property recalls: ' "They never took oysters in Ashbee Harbor or the ditches connecting to the property, because there were none." Closure of S (A) Waters In accordance with l SA NCAC 18A. 0911, Marina Docking Facilities: Other Mooring Areas, in ' regards to waters classified as shellfish growing waters "all waters within the immediate vicinity of a marina shall be classified as prohibited to the harvesting of shellfish for human consumption." Section (3) of the before cited regulations further states: ' "The minimum requirement for the prohibited area beyond the marina shall be based on the number of slips and the type of marina (open or closed system)." PAGE 15 CAMA MAJOR PROJECT NARRATIVE-ASHBEE HARBOR CLUB 1 Based on the proposed 46 boat slips, the size of the prohibited area is 275'. In the design of the marina, the slips were moved as far from the proposed canal cuts in order to minimize the closure. As a result, in Canal A only l 75 linear feet of existing canal (4,503 sq. ft.) shall be classified as prohibited to the harvesting of shellfish for human consumption. In Canal B 51 linear feet of existing canal (1,858 sq. ft.) shall be classified as prohibited to the harvesting of shellfish for human consumption. In closing, these "prohibited waters" are still classified as S (A) Waters; this designation has not changed. Also, based on CAMA regulation 15ANCAC 07H.0208 (b)(5)(E) no harvestable resources will be affected. Finally, it is clear from DMF's biological investigation on July l9, 2006 along with 2005 NCDMF shellfish mapping data that there are "no known harvestable shellfish" in the waters surrounding the proposed development. The Division of Water Quality General Overview of North Carolina Tidal Saltwater Classification System has a category for Saltwater (S) A Waters. In the chart a column header is "Construction & Development" and is further divided by several columns including one labeled "Recreational Activities" in this column it states that Saltwater (S) A Waters are "protected for: marina development." Based on this chart, marinas are permitted in waters identified as Saltwater (S) A. 401 Certification In accordance with 1 SA NCAC 02H. 0506, the proposed project has "no practical alternative." Furthermore, the project is "water dependent and requires access to water as a central element of its basic function." In accordance with l SA NCAC 02H. 0506 (f) project impacts have been reduced; thus, "considering a reduction in size configuration or density of the proposed activity and all alternative designs the basic project purpose cannot be practically accomplished in a manner which would avoid or result in less adverse impact to surface waters or wetlands." The marina has been located to avoid and minimize the impact on the environments and in particular coastal marsh, 404 wetlands, and or any impact on shellfish habitat. There is no other place where we can make the canal connections without creating a larger impact on the environment. PAGE 16 ' CAMA MAJOR PROJECT NARRATIVE-ASHBEE HARBOR CLUB Mitigation As stated above, the proposed project does involve the removal of 3,161 sq.ft. of total Section 404 wetlands including 2,472 sq.ft. of coastal marsh and 689 sq.ft. non-coastal (non-riparian) ' wetlands, and their conversion to public trust waters. Upland areas have been identified on-site that can be used for mitigation to create wetlands at the commonly required 2:1 creation to impact ratio. The mitigation alternative is to contribute to the EEP in-lieu fee payment program at the commonly required 2:1 ratio which will enable EEP to create wetlands. Summary This project has been studied in great detail and major adjustments to the original plans have ' been made in order to address the concerns of the various permitting agencies. We have, thus, minimized all possible impacts in respect to the various permitting agencies' goals, objectives and regulations. There is no other place in the proposed community where 46 boat slips could ' be developed without creating a larger impact to the environment. ' Key to the permitting of this project is CAMA's finding that the proposed project is a "water dependent use". In the Division of Coastal Management's Field Investigation Report, (6.) Site ' Description, (C) Water Dependent Use the project is identified as "yes", a water dependent use. Furthermore, in comments from Frank Jennings, III, District Manager, to Doug Huggett, Major Permits Coordinator, on February 9, 2007 it is stated: ' "While construction of sim le access channels docks and wharfs and dred in are p g g ' identified as water dependent activities which may be permitted on 07H.0208(a)(1). (2) requires that there shall be a finding that (A) the location, design, and need for the development, as well as the construction activities involved should be consistent with ' the State Management Objectives. The Management Objectives for Coastal Wetlands 07H.0205(c) is `to conserve and ' manage Coastal Wetlands so as to safeguard and perpetuate their biological, social, economic and aesthetic values; to coordinate and establish a management system capable of conserving and utilizing Coastal Wetlands as a natural resource essential to PAGE 17 CAMA MAJOR PROJECT NARRATIVE-ASHBEE HARBOR CLUB the functioning of the entire estuarine system. The Use Standards for Coastal Wetlands require that (d) suitable land uses shall be those consistent with the Management Objectives in the Rule. Highest priority of use shall be allocated to the conservation of existing Coastal Wetlands. Second priority of Coastal Wetland use shall be given to those types of development activities that require water access and cannot function elsewhere'." The proposed development. is consistent with the above management goals. Again, the project involves the "construction of simple access channels (and) docks"; all identified as "water dependent activities". Secondly, this development "require(s) water access and cannot function elsewhere". In the planning of the water dependent activities "highest priority" was given to the minimization of impacts. "safeguard(ing)" and "conservation of existing coastal wetlands". This revised project only impacts 2,472 sq.ft. of coastal wetlands, and proposes only two connections rather than three; thus, reducing the impacts from the earlier proposed 8,523 sq.ft. of coastal wetlands. Further, the impacted wetlands are not going to be filled, they are going to be converted to public trust waters. In the Division of Coastal Management's prior Field Investigation Report it is noted: "The proposal, which includes three connections to (the) Croatan Sound, will more likely have better water exchange by virtue of the multiple connections than a proposal with one connection." Thus, not only for safety reasons are two connections required, but also for water quality reasons and for the flushing of the proposed basin. "Multiple connections" are required as recognized by CAMA f eld staff. Lastly, based on the history of the site, Division of Marine Fisheries findings, and state and federal regulations, there is not now or in the past any shellfish in this area and we have satisfied the associated regulatory requirements as detailed earlier; therefore, shellfish should not be a factor in permitting this project.

Will the project be for commercial, public, or private use? ^Commercial ^Public/Government ®Private/Community b. Give a brief description of purpose, use, and daily operations of the project when complete. The purpose is to create a private 46 lot, single family residential development with a man made canal/basin that connects to navigable public trust waters of the Croatan Sound via two existing canals. Each lot owner will have the rights to one boat slip. Not all lot owners will be waterfront, however, there will be several designated (by easement) access points to the waterfront and there will be a wood walkway system around the upland basin areas for lot owners. There is a designated pumpout station and there will be no five-aboard slips. This is planned as a second home type community, however, there will be some year-round residents. stormwater will be directed to the center portion of the uplands (away from the public trust) where it will be treated. c. Describe the proposed construction methodology, types of construction equipment to be used during construction, the number of each type of equipment and where it is to be stored. Canal construction will primarily involve a long reach excavator and bull dozer. Excavated materiial will be side cast and will be utilized on site for implementation of site grading, particularlly to direct stormwater away from the waters' edge and toward the central portion of the uplands. The upland canal will be fully dredged prior to opening the plugs to the two existing canals to avoid unneccessary siltation/turbidity. The development side of the upland canal will be stabilized with a bulkhead and the opposite side will be sloped and vegetated for stabilization. Canal Connec#ion B where the opening will be 25 ft wide will be stabilized with aloes-profile as to allow navigable (-5 ft) water up to the edge for safe navigation. After bulkhead construction, the wood walkway system will be constructed. Any portions of the wood walkway over wetlands will be pile-supported 3 ft over the substrate. These pilings will be driven in place. d. List all development activities you propose. Upland basin/canal creation; connection to two existing canals (3,161 sq.ft, of total wetland disturbance {2,472 sq.ft. of coastal wetland and 689 sq.ft. non-riparian Section 404 wetland disturbance); 46 lot residential subdivision (future lot improvements by individual owners); 3,463 ft of wood walkway around the man made canal; 46 side-to boat slips (1 per lot); paved roadway (outside AEC), community area with pool, playground, etc. e.

Dear Mr. Robbins, ' This letter summarizes the results of two hydrodynamic model simulations that were developed to describe the flushing characteristics of two different canal configurations at the proposed Ashbee Harbors development. The hydrodynamic model simulations were made using the RMA-2/RMA-4 modeling package'~2. The two different canal configurations included: ' 1. Canal A and Canal B connected to the main horseshoe-shaped canal and a shortening of the western extent of the horseshoe-shaped canal by 700 feet. 2. Carat A connected to the main horseshoe-shaped carat and a shortening of the western extent of the horseshoe-shaped canal by 700 feet. ' The bathymetry, summertime wind conditions, and tidally varying water elevation txwndary, used in the additional hydrodynamic simulations, is the same as that used in prior canal simulations. The dilution results of the single-canal and two~anal configurations are compared with each other to indk:ate the ' direct effect of carat Layout and design on the flushing ~laracteristics within the carats. The results of the single-canal and two-carat configurations are illustrated in Figure 1. The results of the single-canal configuration, illustrated in Figure 1, indicate that flushing is generally poor. This is particularty true in the western portion of the main canal, as it exthrtds away from the confluence with Carat A. The flushing simulation for the single-canal configuration indicates that a ma~dmum of 5396 of the original concentrat~n is predicted to remain in the mairi carat after 10 days of simulation time. The results of the two-canal configuration, illustrated in Figure 1, ind~ate that flushing is generally good. This is particu~rty true in the area of, and to the west of, Canal B. Enhanced flushing in this part of the main canal is due to increased water movement into the main canal from Gana) B, in the two-canal ' ~ USAGE, 2003. RMA4 WES Versiarr 4.5.

NCDMF staff sampled Howard Creek, Charles Creek , an unnamed creek and the adjacent area in the Croatan Sound approximately 500 feet from the shoreline with patent tongs. Samples comprised of taking patent tong bottom samples, one square meter each, and sorting through the sediment recording oysters. Samples. included 14 from Howards Creek, 12 from unnamed creek and 23 from Charles Creek with a total of 50 samples taken. One oyster shell consisting of 3 spat located at the mouth of Charles Creek were the only oysters found. Sample compositions are attached with sample numbers 1-13 from the unnamed creek, 14-26 from Howard Creek, and 27-50 from Charles Creek. Results from the current NCDMF biological investigation along with 2005 NCDMF shellfish mapping data, concluded there is no known harvestable shellfish area in waters within 500 feet of the parcel on land sampled. The nearest known harvestable shellfish area is located 1.8 miles south to Baum Creek on the southwest side of Roanoke Island.
