DAVIS Direcror SUBJECT: CD17-036 Consistency Concurrence Concerning the Marine Corps Installations East -Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune Vehicular Bridge Repair, Onslow County, North Carolina (DCM#20170041) Dear Mrs. Baker: We received your consistency submission on July 11, 2017 concerning the Marine Corps Installations East -Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune vehicular bridge repair, Onslow County, North Carolina. North Carolina's coastal zone management program consists of, but is not limited to, the Coastal Area Management Act, the State's Dredge and Fill Law, Chapter 7 of Title 15A of North Carolina's Administrative Code, and the land use plan of the County and/or local municipality in which the proposed project is located. It is the objective of the Division of Coastal Management (DCM) to manage the State's coastal resources to ensure that proposed activities requiring a federal permit would be compatible with safeguarding and perpetuating the biological, social, economic, and aesthetic values of the State's coastal waters. DCM has reviewed the submitted information pursuant to the management objectives and enforceable policies of Subchapters 7H and 7M of Chapter 7 in Title 15A of the North Carolina Administrative Code and concurs that the proposed activity is consistent with North Carolina's approved coastal management program. State of North Carolina I Environmental Quality l Coastal Management Morehead City Office ( 400 Commerce Avenue I Morehead City, NC 28557 252 808 2808 Prior to the initiation of the activities described, the applicant should obtain any required State approvals or authorizations, including any authorization needed from the N.C. Division of Water Resources. Should the proposed action be modified, a revised consistency determination could be necessary. This might take the form of either a supplemental consistency determination pursuant to 15 CFR 930.46, or a new consistency determination pursuant to 15 CFR 930.36. Likewise, if further project assessments reveal environmental effects not previously considered by the proposed development, a supplemental consistency certification may be required. If you have any questions, please contact me at 252-808-2808 x233. Thank you for your consideration of the North Carolina Coastal Management Program.
