Miller & Hopkins c/o Daniel Shirley

9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project is located at 225 Florida Avenue, adjacent to the Carolina Beach Yacht Basin/Myrtle Grove Sound, in
the Town of Carolina Beach, New Hanover Co. To locate the project site from the Wilmington Regional Office
(WiRO), travel from Wilmington to Carolina Beach south on College Road (NC Hwy 132) to Carolina Beach Road
for approximately 12 miles south. Continue over Snows Cut Bridge on N. Lake Park Blvd. for approximately 1.2
miles south until you reach Carl Winner Drive. Turn left onto Carl Winner Drive until you reach Canal Drive.
Turn left on Canal Drive and continue north approximately 1.3 miles until you reach Florida Avenue, which will
be located on the left. Continue traveling on Florida Avenue until you reach the project site on the left.
The applicant currently maintains the approximately 0.33 -acre tract, which is undeveloped with elevations of
approximately 3' above normal high water (NHW). The project site is also bordered by residential properties to
the north and an undeveloped lot to the south. A new vinyl bulkhead exists along the approximately 65 linear
feet (LF) of shoreline along the Carolina Beach Yacht Basin. Waterward of the existing bulkhead are Coastal
Wetlands consisting primarily of Smooth Cordgrass (Spartina alterniflora), however, along the bulkhead there
are a few other species including Sea Oxeye (Borrichia frutescens) and Saltmeadow Cordgrass (Spartina patens).
The new vinyl bulkhead was authorized by CAMA Major Permit No. 69-16, which was a joint authorization with
the neighboring lot at 223 Florida Avenue. That permit is currently maintained by the property owner of 223
Florida Avenue, with all bulkhead work completed.
The Town of Carolina Beach Land Use Plan classifies adjacent waters as Conservation, and the adjacent high
ground portion of the project area as Developed. The waters of the Carolina Beach Yacht Basin are classified SB#
by the Division of Water Resources. They are NOT designated as a Primary Nursery Area by the N.C. Division of
Marine Fisheries and they are CLOSED to the harvest of shellfish.
PROPOSED PROJECT
The applicant proposes to construct a new private docking facility within Myrtle Grove Sound. A 6' by 30' fixed
pier would extend from the existing bulkhead in an easterly direction into Myrtle Grove Sound ending in a
covered `L' head platform measuring approximately 16' by 24'. From the terminus of the platform a ramp would
lead to a floating dock measuring 6' by 22' and oriented perpendicular to the shoreline. From the terminus of
that float, on the southern side an 8' by 16' float would extend parallel to the shoreline. Along the northern
edge of the floating structures a 13' by 13' boat lift would be installed encroaching into the 15' Riparian Corridor
Setback Area with 227 Florida Avenue, for which a waiver has been obtained. The application states that the
docking facility would accommodate up to three (3) vessels within water depths ranging from approximately -2'
to -4' @ NLW.
10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS
The proposed access pier and docking facility would impact approximately 132 ft2 of Coastal Wetlands due to
shading and approximately 993 ft2 of Estuarine Waters and Public Trust Areas. As proposed in the application,
the proposed docking structures would accommodate up to three (3) vessels within water depths ranging from
approximately -2' to -4' @ NLW. The structures appear to not exceed the Town of Carolina Beach historical pier
head line nor the setback from the USACE AIWW. The facility extends approximately 45' into a waterbody
measuring approximately 715' in width, which would conform to the Y4 width rule. The proposed structures
would encroach into the northern adjacent 15' riparian corridor setback requirement, for which a waiver has
been obtained. Minor turbidity should be expected during construction.

Re: Application for Major Permit
225 Florida Ave, Carolina Beach, NC 28428
To whom it may concern,
On behalf of Martha Miller & Jim Hopkins we are applying for a CAMA Major
Permit to construct anew 3 slip dock facility at 225 Florida Ave. The new facility
will consist of a 6'x30' pier (starting from bulkhead), a 16'x24' gazebo (calculated
roof area), a 6'x22' floating dock, a 8'x16' finger dock (floating), and a boat lift. The
boat lift is encroaching into the 15' riparian setback by 7'; but, has been waived by
Gina Poole, adjacent property owner at 227 Florida Ave. This is a private facility
that will be used for recreational boating only.
Please let us know if you need any further information or clarification for the
proposed project. Thank you for your assistance in review of this application.
Sincerely,
Daniel Shirley, agent
