Mr. Kevin Delehanty

9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The project site is located at 114 SW Yacht Drive, adjacent to the AIWW, located in Oak Island,
Brunswick County. To find the project site travel south on US Highway 17 to NC Highway 133 South.
Travel approximately 22 miles south on NC-133 to Dosher Cutoff SE/ NC-133.Turn onto Dosher Cutoff
and then turn right at Southport-Supply Rd. SE/ NC-133. Travel approximately 0.8 mile and turn left
onto NC-133. Follow NC-133 to Oak Island and turn right onto East Oak Island Drive. Travel
approximately 7 miles to the end of Oak Island and turn left onto SE Yacht Drive. The project site will
be located on the right.
The property is approximately 1/3 acre in area. The elevation of the tract is approximately 4' above
Normal High Water (NHW). A single-family residence and existing pier with fixed platform and
floating dock currently occupy Mr. Delehanty's property. Highground vegetation on the property
consists of primarily of lawn grasses, ornamental shrubs and Oak (Quercus spp.). The highground
portion of the property transitions waterward to high marsh vegetation composed primarily of Salt
Meadow Hay (Spartina patens) and Sea Oxeye (Borrichia frutescens), measuring approximately 20' in
width. A band of Salt Marsh Cordgrass (Spartina alterniflora) extends waterward of the high marsh,
measuring approximately 50 feet in width. The existing pier measures approximately 133' in length,
aligned perpendicular to the shoreline. The pier leads to a fixed platform, measuring approximately 11'
in length by 16' in width. A ramp leads from the platform onto a floating dock, measuring 16' in length
by 10' in width, which is positioned landward of the platform, north of the pier. A boatlift is installed
south of the pier, adjacent to the platform.
The Town of Oak Island Land Use Plan classifies the adjacent waters as Conservation. The waters of the
AIWW are classified SA by the Division of Water Quality. They are not designated as a Primary Nursery
Area (PNA) by the N.C. Division of Marine Fisheries. They are OPEN to the harvest of shellfish.
PROPOSED PROJECT:
The applicant requests authorization to install a boatlift lift within an existing private docking facility.
The lift, measuring 12' in length by 12' in width, would be installed on the north side of the existing
platform. The current water depth ranges from approximately A' to -2' relative to Normal Low Water
(NLW) within the area of the proposed boatlift. The lift would provide an additional slip to allow for a
total of three (3) vessels at this docking facility.
10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS
The installation of the boatlift would incorporate approximately 144 sq. ft. of Estuarine Waters and
Pubic Trust Area. The lift does not appear to encroach into the adjacent 15' Riparian Corridor Setbacks.
The proposed boatlift would extend approximately 85' into the waterbody, which measures
approximately 450' across, thus conforming to the 1/4 width rule. It does not appear to encroach into the
USACE setback and would not exceed the established pier line. Minor increases in turbidity should be
expected during construction.
Submitted by: Heather Coats Date: 6/12/2008 Office: Wilmington
Project Proposal
I am proposing to install a second four piling boat lift adjacent to the Northern side of my
existing platform tee. The existing pier abuts the Atlantic Inter-coastal Waterway on the
western end of Oak Island. The project will require the installation of four twenty five
foot pilings on twelve foot centers. When complete, the boat lift will allow me to store a
second boat (a 13 ft Boston Whaler Skiff) adjacent to my existing pier. The lift is needed
to protect the craft from being seriously damaged by the continuous barrage of boat
wakes from the large yachts which traverse the Atlantic Inter-coastal Waterway on a
daily basis. The location is within the normal existing pier line and does not intrude into
the fifteen foot riparian buffer on either adjacent side. The existing pier has one existing
boat lift and an existing floating platform. The existing floating platform is not suitable
for mooring a boat since it is landward of the tee and sits on the bottom at low tide. It is
primarily used to facilitate swimming and to launch small kayaks. The shoreline has a
healthy stable tract of sea-grass (no bulkhead required) and hasn't demonstrated any sign
of erosion in the five years I have owned the property. The shoreline is not suitable for
foot traffic and thus I want to keep the existing floating platform.
