8. PROJECT SUMMARY: The applicant proposes to perform maintenance excavation in a
manmade canal adjacent the Albemarle Sound on Batemans Beach Road Road in Roper.
Blount
Washington County
PROJECT SETTING
Wayne Talley has submitted a Major CAMA 'request on behalf of Martha Blount to perform
maintenance excavation in a manmade canal connecting to the Albemarle Sound. The 1.9 -acre
project site is located at the end of Batemans Beach Road, off NC32 in the Town of Roper in
Washington County. The canal is currently protected by a bulkhead along the eastern side while the
western side has some remnants of bulkheads or is currently not protected. Water depths in the canal
range from -1.5ft below Normal Water Level (NWL) to -5ft below NWL. There are three boat
basins, a boathouse and a boat ramp in the canal. The properties on the east of the canal currently
have single family residences while the properties to the west are currently undeveloped.
The canal was originally permitted in 1979 (Major CAMA 52-79) to be excavated from high ground
with the dimensions of 5 00f long by 5Oft to 100ft wide by -6ft below NWL. Since the basin was
originally permitted a 400ft long by 30ft wide channel by -6ft below NWL was excavated in the
Albemarle Sound. Due to shoaling at the mouth of the canal extending to the boat ramp, the canal
has been excavated six times since the permit was originally issued (2002, 2003, 2012, 2015, 2016,
and 2017). Although the proposed work can be permitted through the Division of Coastal
Management General Permit process, the applicant is applying for this Major CAMA permit so they
will not have to obtain a new permit on a yearly basis.
The Albemarle Sound at the project site is classified as SB by the Environmental Management
Commission and Coastal by the Marine Fisheries Commission.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant is proposing to perform maintenance excavation (170ft by average of 20ft) beginning
at the mouth of the canal and extending south towards the first boat basin in the canal to -3ft below
NWL. The applicant is proposing to excavate their portion of the canal extending approximately 19ft
to 35ft from the eastern bulkhead removing approximately 77 cubic yards. The work will be
performed using an excavator on the shore and the spoil will be placed along the high ground
adjacent the bulkhead.
ANTICIPATED IMPACTS
The project will result in localized turbidity due the excavation of the material removing 77 cubic
yards of sandy material. Spoil material will be placed on the adjacent high ground.
