9. SITE DESCRIPTION:
The site is a 0.98 acre tract of land located at 114 and 125 Grady Davis Road (terminal end), approximately 0.3
miles east of the intersection of Grady Davis Road and NC Highway 70. The property is adjacent to Core
Sound, in Davis, Carteret County, North Carolina. To find the property, Take NC Highway 70 east from
Beaufort to Davis. Once in Davis, go straight at the intersection of NC Highway 70 and Grady Davis Road.
The property will be located at the terminal end of the road.
The property, which is entirely located within the 575' ORW Area of Environmental Concern (AEC), is
currently developed and contains asingle-family residence, access drive, old fish house (building) bulkhead
and rip-rap. There are no wetlands (neither "404" of Coastal) located on the property. Soil conditions on the
site are typical of "old" dredge material with various amounts of shell fragments, and appear to be moderately
permeable (14 inches/hour). The tract has approximately 8061inear feet of shoreline bordering Core Sound, all
of which is stabilized by a bulkhead and reinforced by rip-rap (which is located on the waterward side of the
bulkhead). An earthen berm is located just landward of the bulkhead and currently diverts stormwater towards
the center of the properly, where the existing driveway is located.
Core Sound is approximately 10,000' wide in the vicinity of the project site and water depths range from -2.0'
(around the proposed ferry ramp) to -4.2' (around far shore structures) below NLW. Core Sound is classified
by the Division of Water Quality as SA-ORW. The Division of Marine Fisheries does NOT classifythe waters
as a primary nursery area. Additionally, the Division of Environmental Health has indicated that these waters
are OPEN to the harvesting of Shellfish. The Carteret County Land Use Plan categorizes this area of the county
as Rural, with all AEC's classified as Conservation. The Division of Water Quality has accepted aLow-
Density Stormwater application package, however no permit has been issued to date. The applicant's
development proposal consists of high ground development activities totaling 24.7% built upon area (BUA).
PROPOSED PROJECT:
The applicant proposes to construct an office building/passenger lounge with accessible wood decks and a
platform over both high ground and the waters of Core Sound. The applicant also proposes to install a new
septic system, construct a vehicular loading ramp, paved driveway, parking area, two retaining walls, two
stormwater enhancement areas (with vegetated swales) and install twenty (20) dolphin clusters to accommodate
two ferries. A portion of the high ground would be excavated (in the footprint of the proposed stormwater
enhancement areas) and the fill material resulting from that excavation would be utilized for the driveway,
parking area and stormwater management system. No improvements are being proposed to the existing
residence at this time.
Beginning at the entrance of the property and working east, the applicant proposes to grade the property and
construct an access drive to the existing residence, as well as to the proposed ferry landing and office building.
A small portion of the access drive (approximately 30 sq. ft.) would be located within the 30' Coastal
Shoreline buffer. It should be noted that this area for redevelopment is currently considered to be impervious.
As proposed, the driveway would extend from the western most property line, approximately 250' towards the
east and terminate in a "Y" shaped parking area that would provide access to the ferry terminal and office
building. Parking for the ferry terminal would be located along the southern side of the proposed driveway.
Just south of the proposed driveway, between the driveway and the existing residence, the applicant proposes
to construct one of the two "Stormwater Quality Enhancement" areas (low-density swales). Runoff greater than
12% is to be directed to the "Stormwater Quality Enhancement Area 1"features. The Enhancement feature in
this area would measure approximately 105' x 10' (on average) and would be surrounded by a timber retaining
wall. As proposed, once the site is graded to reach the final graded, stormwater from the front portion of the
property would sheet flow into drainage swales. From there, any overflow would be directed into the swale
convergence area and ultimately the vegetated filter strip. The vegetated filter strip would be approximately 18'
x 50', and is intended to provide pretreatment of runoff. Discharge from this swale would drain over the
existing wall, into Core Sound.

~.a E. a, Lvvnvut ~auw~ aaiu 1~a111 ~JJ~ 1110.
Page Three
A second Stormwater Quality Enhancement feature is proposed between the terminal end of the driveway and
the proposed office building. This area, measuring approximately 35' x 7' (triangular shape) would receive
runoff from the eastern portion of the property, including the building. Runoff would be directed through
vegetated swales towards "Stormwater Quality Enhancement Area 2". This area would be stabilized by a
retaining wall and would function similarly as "Stormwater Quality Enhancement Area 1 ".
A wooden access walkway (5' x 115') would provide access from the parking area to the proposed
office/passenger lounge, as well as the proposed 10' x 300' viewing platform located along the eastern
shoreline. The site would be raised in the area of the proposed building in order to create adequate drainage
and flow for stormwater runoff The building (32' x 48') would be located just landward of the 30' Coastal
Shoreline buffer, however, a small deck (14' x 20') would encroach inside the buffer. Approximately 15 sq. ft.
of decking would be located. within the buffer. A 10' x 300' water access platform would be constructed
adjacent to the bulkhead (above the rip-rap) and wrap around the eastern tip of the peninsula. The access
walkway would provide access to the platform along the southern side of the peninsula.
In addition to the above referenced development activities the applicant proposes to construct a ferry terminal
along the south central portion of the peninsula. Development would include the construction of a 20' x 50'
fixed concrete pier that would extend approximately 50' waterward of the existing bulkhead. Concrete pilings
would be installed to support the weight of the concrete pier apron. A 16' x 44' section of open metal grate
would be place in the center of the loading ramp, within the limits of the concrete apron. The grate is being
proposed to allow light penetration beneath the structure. A 20' articulating ramp is proposed at the terminal
end of the terminal. The ramp would provide access to the ferries as they approach the pier. Fourteen (14)
dolphin clusters are being proposed in alignment with the pier. There would be seven clusters installed on each
side of the ferry landing. Six additional clusters would be located to the east and these would be used to secure
a second ferry. Water depths vary from -1.0' below Normal Low Water (NLW) in the vicinity of the bullchead
to approximately -4.2' NLW at the terminal end of the far shore dolphin cluster.
10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS
It should be noted that the entire area surrounding the property contains beds of Submerged Aquatic
Vegetation (SAV) and the Division of Marine Fisheries (DMF) has designated the neighboring waters as
Submerged SAV) habitat area. The applicant has worked diligently, and in consultation with both the Division
of Coastal Management and the Division of Marine Fisheries to ensure that impacts to SAV's are avoided and
that BUA for the proposed project is limited to 12%. The applicant has demonstrated that he has met DMF's
guidance for limiting, and/or treating all stormwater, at or above 12% BUA.
The project would disturb 32,670 sq. ft. of high ground, of which 10,564 sq. ft. would be impervious surface
for the road and other infrastructure. All proposed impervious surfaces are located within the N.C. Division of
Coastal Management's 575' Outstanding Resource Water (ORW) AEC. This equates to 24.7% impervious
surface within the AEC. Of the 24.7% Built Upon Area (BUA), approximately 12.7% of runoff will be
directed to the Stormwater Enhancement Quality control features. A small portion of the proposed driveway
development (30 sq. ft.) would be located within the 30' Coastal Shoreline buffer. However, this area is
currently considered to be impervious. No other structure, other than the 15 sq. ft. of decking, would be located
within the 3 0' Coastal Shoreline buffer. The ferry pier, pilings and platform would incorporate approximately
12,100 sq. ft. of both Estuarine and Public Trust waters. Sedimentation and stormwater control techniques have
been planned which should minimize any impact from the development of the site.

South Core Banks Ferry Terminal
Cape Lookout Cabins and Camps, Inc.
Kenneth Mack and Brenda Best
Carteret County
April 15, 2008
Cape Lookout Cabins and Camps, Inc. proposes to develop a .98 acre tract of land for use
as a commercial ferry terminal to provide service between Davis, in Carteret County, to
South Core Banks. The ferry service would be operated with approval of the National
Park Service. Kenneth Mack Best is the president of Cape Lookout Cabins and Camps,
Inc. and Brenda Best is the majority stockholder.
The project consists of construction of an office building/passenger lounge with
accessible wooden decks over high ground and Core Sound, installation of a new septic
system, construction of a pier/vehicle loading ramp, and installation of 20 mooring
dolphins to accommodate two ferries. Construction of a driveway and parking areas,
placement of fill on the site, construction of retaining walls, and development of
stormwater quality enhancement areas and vegetated swales are also included. Express
CAMA and state stormwater permits are being pursued for the project.
The project site fronts on Core Sound and is located just east of US 70 in Davis
Township, Carteret County at 114 and 125 Grady Davis Lane (two parcels). For many
years, the site functioned as an active commercial fish house, with numerous commercial
fishing interests in the area. The fish house in no longer on the site, although a small,
pre-1988 accessory building and driveways still exist.
Other existing structures located on the property include another pre-1988 building
currently used as a residence. The owners have obtained authorization from Carteret
County to install a new septic system (copy of permit is enclosed). A bulkhead around the
peninsular-shaped property has recently been installed.
Adjacent land uses are residential, with mixed land uses typical of a "Down East"
Carteret County community within close proximity. Waters at the site are classified as
SA ORW. The site is within the ORW 575' Coastal Shoreline AEC and subject to the
limits of a 30-foot buffer from normal high water.
The property is unzoned, but subject to the requirements of the Carteret County "Down
East" Conservation Ordinance. Due to the shape and size of the property, a variance from
the County's additiona120-foot required buffer from public trust waters and a variance
from the side yard setback contained in the ordinance have been granted by the Carteret
County Planning Commission (see attached letter from Carteret County). The proposed
parking area has been located more than 75' from the tip of the peninsula and 20% from
the side boundaries of the site, in accordance with policies contained in the 1999 Carteret
County Land Use Plan. ,_ _

Two shellfish leases are located near the project site. One lease is located approximately
1.5 miles north of the site. The second lease is located approximately .8 mile south. (A
map showing the location of the leases is enclosed.)
There are no wetlands on the project site.
Submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV) habitat at the site is described as patchy. After
onsite consultation and agreement with the NC Division of Marine Fisheries, it was
determined that no SAV mapping would be performed due to the dynamic movement of
the beds. Using historical SAV data to locate the vehicle-loading ramp in the area that
would result in the least impacts to SAVs has reduced potential impacts from turbidity
associated with ferry traffic. To further reduce potential impacts to SAVs, the pier deck
(vehicle loading ramp) will be constructed of open, grated steel to allow sunlight through
the structure. The proposed specifications for the pier deck provide for 76% open area
(see enclosed load table).
It should be noted that the project site is located adjacent a mechanical clam harvest area.
Also, for many years, a similar commercial vehicular ferry service operated within close
proximity of the site. (The operators of that service no longer have the ferry service
concession and are not currently in operation.) Impacts from ferry traffic and mechanical
clam harvesting activities have traditionally affected the area.
The fixed portion of the proposed pier/vehicle-loading ramp measures 50' x 20' and as
noted above, will be constructed of open grated steel. A 20' x 20' articulating ramp
section (also proposed grated metal) will be attached at the waterward end of the fixed
structure to allow extension over deeper water and onto the ferry bow.
Per Mr. Best, the loaded operable depth requirements for the ferry to be used at the site
are 36'~ stern and 18 ~` bow. The ferry will be loaded from the bow end (16' from the end
of the fixed portion of the pier). Although water depths at the end of the fixed portion of
the pier/vehicle-loading ramp measure 2 feet MLW, the prop is located near the stern
where water depths are 3.5' NLW.
The office building/passenger lounge is proposed for construction in the general location
of the previous fish house. Plans provide for removal of remaining impervious surfaces
from the fish house structure that are located in the CAMA 30-foot buffer. However, no
new impervious surfaces associated with construction of the new building are proposed
for location in the buffer. An elevated slatted walkway will connect the building to an
observation deck (platform) to be located over the water. The deck will measure 10' from
the bulkhead waterward and will be 300' wide. The deck will be placed over existing
rock riprap and will follow the shoreline around the end of the peninsula. Please see the
enclosed elevation certificate for verification that the proposed first floor elevation of the
building satisfies all FEMA requirements.

The proposed driveway and parking areas are shown on project plans. Total impervious
surfaces in the AEC (and buffer) are 24.7%. As noted above, the location of the proposed
parking areas is in compliance with Carteret County land use plan policies.
Upland earthen cut volume for the project totals 104 cubic yards. The excavated material,
plus 734 cubic yards of additional fill, will be utilized for driveway, parking and
stormwater management grading. Retaining walls (5771inear feet in total length) are
proposed for establishing the desired drainage patterns while ensuring slope stability for
the vegetated conveyances, as shown on project plans.
The South Core Banks Ferry project has been characterized for stormwater management
purposes as an alternative low-density project with anon-discharging BMP. The
proposed built upon area (BUA) of 24.7% is in compliance with Division of Water
Quality and Division of Coastal Management regulations.
The runoff anticipated to occur due to a L5-inch rainfall on BUA greater than 12% is to
be directed to areas designed to support post development stormwater quality
enhancement (per Division of Marine Fisheries project review guidelines). Vegetated
swales will provide the stormwater conveyances to this area.
The vegetated swales and areas of Swale convergence are intended to provide
pretreatment of runoff. Excess runoff volume is to be directed over a level weir to a 50-
footminimum length filter strip of appropriate width.
The water quality enhancement areas necessary to achieve the design goals are located 50
feet from SA surface waters, as requested by the Division of Water Quality. Additional
similar treatment area is anticipated to occur where the vegetated swales converge.
A "Detailed Soils Evaluation for Stormwater Infiltration" was made and a report dated
January 2, 2008 provided by Soil and Environmental Consultants, PA (copy of report
attached). The soils were found to consist of "old filUdredge material with various
amounts of shell fragments." The soil wetness condition was estimated to range from 12
inches to 18 inches. The USDA KSAT for the two borings made was estimated to exceed
14 inches/hour to a depth of 84+ inches.
The predevelopment land surface elevation adjacent the boring #2 within the proposed
BMP is 3.96 feet. The elevation of the bottom of the treatment area as proposed is 4.5
feet. Therefore, retaining walls and substantial filling are necessary to elevate and direct
flows in the desired manner.

South Core Banks Ferry Terminal
Cape Lookout Cabins and Camps, Inc.
Kenneth Mack and Brenda Best
Carteret County
Cape Lookout Cabins and Camps, Inc. proposes to develop a .98 acre tract of land for use
as a commercial ferry terminal to provide service between Davis, in Carteret County, to
South Core Banks. The ferry service would be operated with approval of the National
Park Service. Kenneth Mack Best is the president. of Cape Lookout Cabins and Camps,
Inc. and Brenda Best is the majority stockholder.
The project consists of construction of an office building/passenger lounge with
accessible wooden decks over high ground and Core Sound, installation of a new septic
system, construction of a pier/vehicle loading ramp, and installation of 20 mooring
dolphins to accommodate two ferries. Construction of a driveway and parking areas,
placement of fill on the site, construction of retaining walls, and development of
stormwater quality enhancement areas and vegetated swales are also included. Express
CAMA and state stormwater permits are being pursued for the project.
The project site fronts on Core Sound and is located just east of US 70 in Davis
Township, Carteret County at 114 and 125 Grady Davis Lane (two parcels). For many
years, the site functioned as an active commercial fish house, with numerous commercial
fishing interests in the area. The fish house in no longer on the site, although a small,
pre-1988 accessory building and driveways still exist.
Other existing structures located on the property include another pre-1988 building
currently used as a residence. The owners have obtained authorization from Carteret
County to install a new septic system (copy of permit is enclosed). A bulkhead around the
peninsular-shaped property has recently been installed.
Adjacent land uses are residential, with mixed land uses typical of a "Down East"
Carteret County community within close proximity, Waters at the site are classified as
SA ORW. The site is within the ORW 575' Coastal Shoreline AEC and subject to the
limits of a 30-foot buffer from normal high water.
The property is unzoned, but subject to the requirements of the Carteret County "Down
East" Conservation Ordinance. Due to the shape and size of the property, a variance from
the County's additiona120-foot required buffer from public trust waters and a variance
from the side yard setback contained in the ordinan~:e have been granted by the Carteret
County Planning Commission (see attached letter from Carteret County). The proposed
parking area has been located more than 75' from the tip of the peninsula and 20% from
the side boundaries of the site, in accordance with policies contained in the 1999 Carteret
County Land Use Plan.

Two shellfish leases are located near the project site. One lease is located approximately
1.5 miles north of the site. The second lease is located approximately .8 mile south. (A
map showing the location of the leases is enclosed.)
There are no wetlands on the project site.
Submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV) habitat at the site is described as patchy. After
onsite consultation and agreement with the NC Division of Marine Fisheries, it was
determined that no SAV mapping would be performed due to the dynamic movement of
the beds. Using historical SAV data to locate the vehicle-loading ramp in the area that
would result in the least impacts to SAVs has reduced potential impacts from turbidity
associated with ferry traffic. To further reduce potential impacts to SAVs, the pier deck
(vehicle loading ramp) will be constructed of open, grated steel to allow sunlight through
the structure. The proposed specifications for the prier deck provide for 76% open area
(see enclosed load table).
It should be noted that the project site is located adjacent a mechanical clam harvest area.
Also, for many years, a similar commercial vehicular ferry service operated within close
proximity of the site. (The operators of that service no longer have the ferry service
concession and. are not currently in operation.) Impacts from ferry traffic and mechanical
clam harvesting activities have traditionally affected the area.
The fixed portion of the proposed pier/vehicle-loading ramp measures 50' x 20' and as
noted above, will be constructed of open grated steel. A 20' x 20' articulating ramp
section (also proposed grated metal) will be attached at the waterward end of the fixed
structure to allow extension over deeper water and onto the ferry bow.
Per Mr. Best, the loaded operable depth requirements for the ferry to be used at the site
are 36' stern and 18' bow. The ferry will be loaded from the bow end (16' from the end
of the fixed portion of the pier). Although water depths at the end of the fixed portion of
the pier/vehicle-loading ramp measure 2 feet MLW, the prop is located near the stern
where water depths are 3.5' NLW.
The office building/passenger lounge is proposed for construction in the general location
of the previous fish house. Plans provide for removal of remaining impervious surfaces
from the fish house structure that are located in the CAMA 30-foot buffer. However, no
new impervious surfaces associated with construction of the new building are proposed
for location in the buffer. An elevated slatted walkway will connect the building to an
observation deck to be located over the water. Plea:;e see the enclosed elevation
certificate for verification that the proposed first floor elevation satisfies all FEMA
requirements.
The proposed driveway and parking areas are shown on project plans. Total impervious
surfaces in the AEC (and buffer) are 24.7%. As noted above, the location of the proposed
parking areas is in compliance with Carteret County land use plan policies.

Upland earthen cut volume for the project totals 1014 cubic yards. The excavated material,
plus 734 cubic yards of additional fill, will be utilized for driveway, parking and
stormwater management grading. Retaining walls (577 linear feet in total length) are
proposed for establishing the desired drainage patterns while ensuring slope stability for
the vegetated conveyances, as shown on project plans.
The South Core Banks Ferry project has been characterized for stormwater management
purposes as an alternative low-density project with. anon-discharging BMP. The
proposed built upon area (BUA) of 24.2% is in compliance with Division of Water
Quality and Division of Coastal Management regulations.
The runoff anticipated to occur due to a 1.5-inch rainfall on BUA greater than 12% is to
be directed to areas designed to support post development stormwater quality
enhancement (per Division of Marine Fisheries project review guidelines). Vegetated
swales will provide the stormwater conveyances to this area.
The vegetated swales and areas of swale convergence are intended to provide
pretreatment of runoff. Excess runoff volume is to be directed over a level weir to a 50-
footminimum length filter strip of appropriate width.
The water quality enhancement areas necessary to achieve the design goals are located 50
feet from SA surface waters, as requested by the Division of Water Quality. Additional
similar treatment area is anticipated to occur where; the vegetated swales converge.
A "Detailed Soils Evaluation for Stormwater Infiltration" was made and a report dated
January 2, 2008 provided by Soil and Environmeni:al Consultants, PA (copy of report
attached). The soils were found to consist of "old fill/dredge material with various
amounts of shell fragments." The soil wetness condition was estimated to range from 12
inches to 18 inches. The USDA KSAT for the two borings made was estimated to exceed
14 inches/hour to a depth of 84+ inches.
The predevelopment land surface elevation adjacent the boring #2 within the proposed
BMP is 3.96 feet. The elevation of the bottom of the treatment area as proposed is 4.5
feet. Therefore, retaining walls and substantial filling are necessary to elevate and direct
flows in the desired manner.

Re: Detailed Soils Evaluation for Stormwater Infiltration at 114 & 115 Grady Davis
Lane in Davis, Carteret County, North Carolina.
Dear Mr. Best:
Soil & Environmental Consultants, PA (S&EC) performed a detailed soil evaluation in
the proposed stormwater infiltration areas at the site mentioned above located on adjacent
to Grady Davis Lane and abutting Core Sound, in Davis, Carteret County. A map was
provided to us by your project engineer, showing the location where the stormwater
infiltration basins are proposed. At the two indicated locations the following activities
were performed: soil morphology profile descriptions to seven feet, and estimation of
permeability, hydraulic conductivity, and seasonal high water table. The purpose of this
evaluation was to provide you with additional information for designing stormwater
infiltration basins. The following is a brief report of the methods utilized in this
evaluation and the results obtained.
Soil/Site Evaluation
A detailed soil/site evaluation was performed by Walter Cole (NCLSS) to acquire the
information needed. The evaluation was performed by making hand auger borings to a
depth of 7 feet at two locations which were located with a GPS receiver and are shown on
the attached map and identifying and recording the soil morphological conditions at those
two locations in order to develop soil profile descriptions, which are also included with
this report and shown on the attached map.
Results & Recommendations
Soils within both possible locations consisted of old fill/dredge material with various
amounts of shell fragments. The texture of the soil varied with depth, anywhere from a
loamy sand in the surface horizons to a fine sand in the lower horizons. It is important to
note that stormwater infiltration systems cannot be sited in fill material, unless approved
on a case-by-case basis by NCDWQ.
Under current regulations, soils within an area proposed for stormwater infiltration must
have a minimum infiltration rate of 0.52 inches per hour. At the two possible locations,
the borings revealed surface and subsurface soil horizons that have an estimated
hydraulic conductivity of more than the 0.52 inches per hour threshold. Although

Faz [phone]

saturated hydraulic conductivity measurements would be needed to definitively show that
these layers are above the 0.52 inches per hour threshold, we feel strongly that any testing
will reveal that these soils would meet the threshold, and that the excavation of the soil
horizons and replacement with sand would not be necessary from a soil texture
standpoint. The permeability estimates are based on the soil textures and are obtained
from the USDA-NRCS (United States Department of Agriculture -Natural Resource
Conservation Service) official series description and since the rules require a minimum
hydraulic conductivity of 0.52 inches per hour or more, the permeability estimates were
converted to hydraulic conductivity estimates on the profile description tables. No actual
site specific testing of hydraulic conductivity was performed.
The seasonal high water table based on soil color was difficult to determine using soil
color due to the fill material, however we estimate the soil wetness condition ranged from
12 inches to 18 inches. Under current regulations, the bottom of any infiltration systems
must be a minimum of two feet above the seasonal high water table, so it would be
necessary to bring in fill material, which has to be approved by the NCDWQ on a case-
by-case basis, however with the space limitations proposed by this site, along with the
existing fill, this would most likely not be a viable option.
In conclusion, at the two possible locations for a stormwater infiltration device, the soil
texture would be considered suitable, however the sites would be considered unsuitable
from a soil wetness standpoint, due to the two foot separation requirement from the
bottom of the stormwater infiltration device and the water table. Based on conversations
with Mr. Vincent Lewis of the NCDWQ, this would result in too much fill material
required in too small a space for a stormwater infiltration device to be feasible, especially
when you take into account that the site already has fill material on it. Therefore, the
most likely, and perhaps only option for stormwater treatment on this site would be to use
a sand-filter. Please contact Linda Lewis for the NCDWQ Wilmington Regional Office at
[phone] for more information.
Finally, please remember that the rules require a 30 foot setback to all surface waters and
50 foot for SA waters, and 100 foot from any stormwater infiltration device.
Soil & Environmental Consultants, PA is pleased to be of service in this matter and we
look forward to assisting in the successful completion of the project. Please feel free to
call with any questions or comments. ~..,~
