impervious on tract E totals 9,430 sq. ft. and would be reduced to 7,833 sq. ft. The overall
impervious percentage for this development in its entirety would be reduced from 59% to
53%. The runoff would also be collected and managed by a stormwater collection system.
This project will require approval of a storm water and wastewater plan from The Division of
Water Quality and also sedimentation and erosion control plan from The Division of Land
Quality.
11. Anticipated Impacts:
The proposed project would result in 60,4011ftZ of high ground disturbance. The 14-story, 42-
unit residential condominium complex would substantially increase the density of the circle
area. The project would add 215, 000 ft2 of habitable and uninhabitable development and
would extend 186' above mean sea level resulting in a visual impact. Once built, this project
would reduce the impervious from 78% to 66% within the ocean hazard AEC. The total
impervious area for the project in its entirety would be reduced from 59% to 53%. No permits
from The Division of Land Quality or The Division of Water Quality have been issued at this
time.

The foundation of the building would be supported by pilings which will be located a
minimum of 120' landward of the first line of stable natural vegetation. There would be a 16'
section of the oceanfront portion of floors 3-5 and an 11' section of floors 6-14 cantilevered
into the large structure setback. The 16' cantilevered area would be unenclosed parking spaces
and the 11' cantilevered area will be unenclosed deck space.
Seaward of the proposed 14-story condominium building would be two (2) smaller duplex
buildings. The buildings would be two stories each with a footprint of 2000 sq. ft. Both
buildings would be structurally and physically separated from the other and from the main 14-
story condominium building. The buildings would be on pilings and would not exceed a
height of 47' above mean sea level. Parking would be provided underneath each building.
As other amenities, the applicants are proposing a swimming pool, two (2) 10' x 10' gazebos
and an 8'4" wide wooden walkway to the beach strand. These features would be located on
parcels A-D. The pool will be located at a distance of 15' landward from the 60' small
structure setback. The gazebos would be located a distance of 22' waterward of the 60' small
structure setback. The wooden walkway would extend directly from the proposed pool
waterward and tie into the existing Town of Atlantic Beach public boardwalk.
Parcel E would serve as a new parking area for 19 new spaces. The parcel is 10,677 sq. ft. and
currently has an old abandoned motel and asphalt parking. The building and parking areas
would be demolished and two new parking areas would be constructed. Access to one of the
parking areas would be off of East Drive and the other would be from East Blvd and East
Atlantic Blvd. Irrigation from the wastewater plant is being proposed on this tract and would
be located in various vegetated islands.
Parcel G would serve as the wastewater treatment site. This parcel is 16,073 sq. ft. in size. It is
mostly flat and void of vegetation. A 1,659 sq. ft wastewater treatment plant building as well
as subsurface pipes and surface spray heads are proposed on this parcel. The building and
concrete pads and walkways would result in 2,433 sq. ft. of impervious coverage.
The proposed wastewater treatment plant is a complete biological treatment system, which
produces high quality effluent that can be used for reuse applications. Such applications
include irrigation, water recharge and non-potable water applications. The plant would have a
total capacity of 27,000 gallons per day with a required 5-day side stream emergency storage
capacity. There would be two concrete tanks that provide this additional capacity. One would
be located under the treatment plant and the other would be located under the 14-story
condominium.
Part of the reuse wastewater would be used for irrigation for the condominium, duplexs and
parking lot. None of the irrigation would occur seaward of the large structure setback. The
reclaimed water would also be used for flushing of toilets.
The existing impervious areas on the ocean front tract tota178% and the proposed project
would reduce this to 66%. All impervious within the existing 60' small structure setback
would be removed then landscaped with salt resistant vegetation. The current amount of

9. Narrative Description:
The Ocean King project is located at the 111 Atlantic Blvd., 105 Atlantic Blvd., 107 Atlantic
Blvd., 201 East Drive and 301 East Drive commonly known as "The Circle". "The Circle" is
found by turning right off of Hwy 70 East in Morehead City onto the Atlantic Beach
Causeway. Follow this road to the existing 4-way stoplights and drive straight through. "The
Circle" is identifiable by construction taking place outside of CAMA's AECs.
The Ocean King property is 60,401 ft2 in its entirety and averages approximately 9' above
NHW. The high ground portion of this site consists of three tracts of property: one borders the
Atlantic Ocean (parcels A-D) and the other two border a portion of East Drive (parcel E and
parcel D). The residential structures will be located on the ocean front tract, the parking area
will be located on one of the tracts off of East Drive with the waste water plant located on the
remaining tract off of East Drive.
There is an existing public boardwalk, which provides pedestrian access along "The Circle's"
oceanfront. On the east portion of the property there is a concrete pad, asphalt drive and
wooden retaining wall. There is also an existing oceanfront seawall that represents the location
of the first line of stable natural vegetation at this site. As such, this concrete wall will be the
reference line for measuring the Ocean Erodible Area Setbacks. The annual erosion rate for
this area is 2' per year and the 100-year storm event is 40' resulting in a total Ocean Erodible
Area of 160'. The large structure setback is measured a distance landward of the first line of
stable natural vegetation and multiplying the long term erosion rate times 60 which sets this
setback at 120' .The small structure setback is measured a distance landward of the first line of
stable natural vegetation and multiplying the long term erosion rate times 30 which sets this
setback at 60'. The Division of Water Quality has classified the waters of the Atlantic Ocean
as "SB". There are no harvestable shellfish that exist adjacent to this property. The area in
which the proposed project would take place is located entirely on high ground. Atlantic
Beach's Land Use Plan dated 1994 classifies this area as Developed Commercial within the
AECs. The adjacent property to the west is a town sidewalk, on the north is Atlantic Blvd and
to the east are single-family residences.
10. Proiect Description:
The applicant is proposing to redevelop the ocean front tract with residential structures and
associated amenities. The primary structure will be a 14-story, 42 unit condominium with a
total floor area of 121,062 sq. ft. of habitable, enclosed space. The first five floors would be
dedicated to parking, building infrastructure, club and lobby area. The remaining nine floors
would be dedicated to residential units. The ground floor would be public parking. Floors 6-
11will have five units per floor with floors 12-14 having four units per floor. The total height
of the building (including the HVAC equipment and elevator shaft) would be a maximum
height of 186' above mean sea level. The total sq. footage of habitable and uninhabitable area
is 215,306 sq. feet.

RE: Ocean King Major CAMA Permit Application
Dear Ms. Styron:
Please find enclosed a CAMA permit application for the Ocean King Condominium project which is
located in the Town ofAtlantic Beach. The project will involve the construction of one fourteen (14)
story building and two (2), two-story condominium buildings. The project is located within "The
Circle" area of Atlantic Beach and is consistent with the Town's Circle Development zoning district.
The project site consists of three tracts of property: one borders the Atlantic Ocean and the other two
border a portion of East Drive. The residential structures will be located on the oceanfront tract. One
of the tracts on East Drive will be a parking area and the other tract will be the location of the waste
water treatment plant.
Oceanfront Tract
The ocean front tract consists of 4 different parcels with a total land area of 33,655 square feet (sq.ft.)
and has been completely developed in the past with various businesses and uses. Presently located on
the property is the Utopia 2 (a one story stucco building with various shops), Our Place (a bar and
entertainment establishment) and the Boardwalk Grill.
An oceanfront seawall was constructed on this property many years ago and the Town of Atlantic
Beach was granted an easement to construct a boardwalk in an area just north of the seawall. This
boardwalk is a part of a larger Town boardwalk which provides pedestrian access along "The Circle's"
oceanfront. Located on the eastern portion of the property is a concrete pad and asphalt drive which
goes from the oceanfront boazdwalk to Atlantic Boulevard. A wooden retaining wall is also located
along a portion of the eastern property line and runs perpendicular to the ocean. The adjacent property
to the west is a town sidewalk, on the north is Atlantic Boulevard and on the east is a single family
residence.
The oceanfront seawall has been designated as the first line of stable natural vegetation by the Division
of Coastal Management and is identified as the "CAMA line" on the attached application drawings.
The oceanfront area along this section of Atlantic Beach has benefited from several US Army Corps of
Engineer's spoil disposal projects during the last twenty three years. The mean high water line of the
Atlantic Ocean is approximately 225' seaward of the concrete bulkhead. The waters of the Atlantic
Ocean are classified as "SB" waters and no harvestable shellfish exist adjacent to this property. The
annual erosion rate for this tract of land is 2' a year and the 100-year recession line is 40'. The majority

~ ~> b~ + a '~' '~ .'
within an~AE zone (elevation 11').
The applicant is proposing to redevelop the oceanfront tract with residential structures and associated
amenities. The primary structure will be a 14-story, 42-unit condominium with a total floor area of
approximately 121,062 sq.ft. of habitable, enclosed space. The first five floors will be dedicated to
parking, building infrastructure and a club and lobby area. The remaining 9 floors are dedicated to
residential units. Public parking will be provided on the ground floor level. Floors 6-11 will have 5
units per floor and floors 12-14 will have 4 units per floor. The total height of the building (including
elevator shaft and HAV equipment) will not exceed 186' above mean seal level (msl). The total square
footage of all habitable and non-habitable floor areas, including cantilevered decks and parking areas,
is approx.215,306 sq.ft..
The foundation to the building will be supported by pilings located at least 120' seaward of the first line
of stable natural vegetation. There will be a 16' section of the oceanfront portion of floors 3 through 5
and an 11' section of floors 6 through 14 cantilevered into the large structure setback. The 16'
cantilevered area will be unenclosed parking spaces and the 11' cantilevered area will be unenclosed
deck space. Both will be reinforced concrete construction. All construction will be consistent with the
NC Building Code, the National Flood Insurance Program and the Town of Atlantic Beach's applicable
codes and ordinances.
Seaward of the high rise, 2 smaller duplex buildings are proposed. These buildings will be two stories
each with a footprint of approx. 2,000 sq.ft.. Each building will be structurally and physically
separated from the other and from the main high rise building. The buildings will be elevated on
pilings and the total height of the buildings will not exceed 47' above msl. Parking will be provided
underneath the buildings. The size and design of the concrete parking pads will be such that they are
less than 5,000 sq. ft. each and structurally and physically separated from each other.
Wastewater generated from these residential developments will be pumped to an off-site location on
East Drive. The plant is designed as a reclaimed water system. The reclaimed water will be used for
non-potable uses such as irrigation and flushing of toilets in the buildings,
Other oceanfront amenities include a swimming pool, two small 10' x 10' gazebos and a 8'4" wide
wooden walkway to the ocean.
Existing impervious areas on the oceanfront tract is approx. 78 % and this project will reduce that
amount to approx. 66%. All impervious areas within the 60' small structure setback will be removed
and then landscaped with salt resistant vegetation.
Parking Tracf
Directly northeast of the proposed building sites a new 19 space parking area is proposed. The site is
located on the east side of East Drive, north of East Boardwalk Drive and on the south side of East
Atlantic Boulevard. The site is approximately 10,677 sq. ft. in size and is currently occupied with an
abandoned motel and associated asphalt parking areas. The building and parking areas will be
demolished and two new parking areas will be constructed on the property. Ingress and egress to one
of the parking areas will be gained from East Drive while the other will be from East Blvd and East
Atlantic Blvd. Irrigation from the wastewater plant is also proposed on this tract and will be located in
various vegetated "islands." Presently the amount of impervious surfaces on this tract of land is

Wastewater Plant Tract
The reclaimed wastewater treatment plant will be located on an approximately 16,073 sq.ft. tract of
land at the corner of East Drive and East Terminal Boulevard. The site is basically flat and is void of
any structures. An approximately 1,659 sq. ft. wastewater treatment plant building as well as a series
of subsurface pipes and surface spray heads (which will provide surface application of the reclaimed
wastewater) are proposed for this area. The building and associated concrete pads and walkways will
result in approx. 2,433 sq.ft. of impervious coverage.
The sewage plant is a complete biological treatment system. This system produces a high quality
effluent that can be used for reuse applications such as irrigation, water recharge and non-potable water
applications. The plant has a total capacity of 27,000 gallons per day (gpd} average daily flow with
peaks up to 64,800 gpd. Te required 5 day side-stream emergency storage capacity will be provided by
two enclosed concrete tanks, one under the treatment plant and on under the high rise condominium.
A portion of the reuse wastewater will be used for irrigation purposes on the condominium, duplexs
and parking lot sites. The amount of irrigation required for each site is such that no required irrigation
for the large condominium structure will occur seaward of the 120' large structure setback. A portion
of the reclaimed wastewater will also be used to flush toilets. Each of the buildings will be allocated
for irrigation and other non potable uses based upon their prorated share.
Approval for this type of wastewater disposal at a projected maximum volume of 24,990 gpd is
currently being considered by the NC Division of Water Quality.
Project Summation
This project will result in the redevelopment of a portion of "The Circle" in Atlantic Beach into a 46
unit residential development. The overall impervious area for this development will be reduced from
approximately 59% to 53% and for the first time run-off will be collected and managed by a
stormwater collection system.
The project is consistent with the Town of Atlantic Beach's Zoning Ordinance and their CAMA Land
Use Plan. This project will compliment other projected developments currently being contemplated for
"The Circle" which involve the construction of additional high-rise residential structures.
The project will require stormwater and wastewater approvals from the Division of Water Quality and a
sedimentation and erosion control plan from the Division of Land Quality. These approvals have been
or will be applied for in the very near future.
If you have any questions concerning this project or if 1 can provide you any additional information,
please do not hesitate to contact me.

This notice is intended to make you, the applicant, aware of the
special risks and conditions associated with development in this
area, which is subject to natural hazards such as storms, erosion
and currents. The rules of the Coastal Resources Commission
require that you receive an AEC Hazard Notice and acknowledge
that notice in writing before a permit for development can be
issued.
The Commission's rules on building standards, oceanfront
setbacks and dune alterations are designed to minimize, but not
eliminate, property loss from hazards. By granting permits, the
Coastal Resources Commission does not guarantee the safety of
the development and assumes no liability for future damage to
the development. Permits issued in the Ocean Hazard Area of
Environmental Concern include the condition that structures be
relocated or dismantled if they become imminently threatened by
changes in shoreline configuration. The structure(s) must be
relocated or dismantled within two (2) years of becoming
imminently threatened, and in any case upon its collapse or
subsidence.
The best available information, as accepted by the Coastal
Resources Commission, indicates that the annual long-term
average ocean ~rosion rate for the area where your property is
located is ~ feet per year.
The rate was established by careful analysis of aerial photographs
of the coastline taken over the past 50 years.
Studj'es~also indicate that the shoreline could move as much as
`'~ feet landward in a major storm.
The flood waters in a major storm are predicted to be about
j ~ feet deep in this area.
Preferred oceanfront protection measures are beach nourishment
and relocation of threatened structures. Hard erosion control
structures such as bulkheads, seawalls, revetments, groins, jetties
and breakwaters are prohibited. Temporary sand bags may be
authorized under certain conditions.

SPECIAL NOTE: This hazard notice is required for development
in areas subject to sudden and massive storms and erosion. Permits
issued for development in this area expire on December 31 of the
third year following the year in which the permit was issued.
Shortly before work begins on the project site, the Local Permit
Officer must be contacted to determine the vegetation line and
setback distance at your site. Ifthe property has seen little change
since the time of permit issuance, and the proposed development
can still meet the setback requirement, the LPO will inform you
that you may begin work. Substantial progress on the project
must be made within 60 days of this setback determination, or
the setback must be remeasured. Also, the occurrence of a major
shoreline change as the result of a storm within the 60-day period
will necessitate remeasurement of the setback. It is important
that you check with the LPO before the permit expires for official
approval to continue the work after the permit has expired.
Generally, if foundation pilings have been placed and substantial
progress is continuing, permit renewal can be authorized. It is
unlawful to continue work after permit expiration.

BEFORE YOU BUILD
Setting Back for Safety: A Guide to Wise Development Along the Oceanfront
When you build along the oceanfront, you take a calculated risk.
Natural forces of water and wind collide with tons of force, even
on calm days.
Man-made structures cannot be guaranteed to survive the force
of a hurricane. Long-term erosion (or barrier island migration)
may take from two to ten feet of the beach each year, and,
sooner or later, will threaten oceanfront structures. These are the
facts of life for oceanfront property owners.
The Coastal Resources Commission (CRC) has adopted rules
for building along the oceanfront. The rules are intended to avoid
an unreasonable risk to life and property, and to limit public and
private losses from storms and long-term erosion. These rules
lessen but do not eliminate the element of risk in oceanfront
development.
As you consider building along the oceanfront, the CRC wants
you to understand the rules and the risks. With this knowledge,
you can make a more informed decision about where and how to
build in the coastal area.
The Rules
When you build along the oceanfront, coastal management rules
require that the structure be sited to fit safely into the beach
environment.
Structures along the oceanfront must be behind the frontal dune,
landward of the crest of the primary dune, and set back from the
first line of stable natural vegetation a distance equal to 30 times
the annual erosion rate (a minimum of 60 feet). Large structures
(multi-family residential structures greater than 5,000 squaze feet
and nonresidential structures greater than 5,000 square feet) must
beset back from the first line ofnatural stable vegetation a distance
equal to 60 times the annual erosion rate of 120 feet, whichever

is greater. If the erosion rate is greater than 3.5 feebyear, the
setback is 30 times the erosion rate plus 105 feet.
The Reasons
The beachfront is anever-changing landform. The beach and the
dunes are natural "shock absorbers," taking the beating of the
wind and waves and protecting the inland areas. By setting back
30 or 60 times the annual long-term erosion rate, you have a
good chance of enjoying the full life of the structure. At first, it
seems very inviting to build your dream house as close to the
beach as possible, but in five years you could find the dream has
become a nightmare as high tides and storm tides threaten your
investment.
The Exception
The Coastal Resources Commission recognized that these rules,
initially passed in June 1979, might prove a hardship for some
property owners. Therefore, they established an exception for
lots that cannot meet the setback requirement. The exception
allows buildings in front of the setback line if the following
conditions apply:
(1) the lot must have been platted as of June 1, 1979, and is not
capable of being enlazged by combining with adjoining land under
the same ownership; (2) development must be as far back on the
property as possible and in no case less than 60 feet landward of
the vegetation line; (3) no development can take place on the
frontal dune; (4) special construction standazds on piling depth
and square footage must be lnet; and (5) all other CAMA, state
and local regulations must be met.
The exception is not available in the Inlet Hazard Area.
To determine eligibility for the exception, the Local Permit Officer
will make these measurements and observations:
required setback from vegetation line
exception setback (maximum feasible)
rear property line setback
max. allowable square footage on lowest floor
lot azea as calculated from vegetation line
piling length needed to extend 4 feet below MSL

After the storm, the house on the dune will be gone. The other house has a much better chance of survival.
