There appears to be a potential shallow bottom impact and potential SAV habitat due to the limited water depth at low tide. This area of Nelson Bay is designated as SA-HQW and SNA, and there is potential for displacement of the shallow bottom area from the use of vessels accessing the lease; however, this area of Nelson Bay appears to be currently usurped with existing leases. If the US Army Corps of Engineers issues NW 48 for this proposal, this will require written approval under our General Certification No. 4091 http://edocs.deg.nc.gov/WaterResources/0/doc/493433/Page1.aspx . The application fee will be $240 once the lease is approved and prior to issuance of the 401 approval letter. Please have the applicant include the DWR project # 201706661 on the check since they will be received separate from this application.

Attached are the following documents to assist with the review: review questions, original application and a map of the proposed lease location. To more fully evaluate other factors which may affect the possible issuance of this lease, it is requested that Marine Patrol, Fisheries Management and Shellfish Sanitation complete the attached review form. Amendments to existing Bottom Leases do not meet the requirement for review under the joint application to the US Army Corp of Engineers Nationwide Permit 48.

North Carolina General Statute 113-202 requires comments to be evaluated by the DMF director and if approved to post two legal notices and hold a public hearing during at the end of a 30 -day public comment period.
