ANTICIPATED IMPACTS It is anticipated that the proposed development will cause the following impacts: Construction of the wetland protection sill will result in the filling of 2,400 SF (.06 acres) of Public Trust Area and Estuarine Water AECs and usurpation of 12,000 SF (.28 acres) of the same AECs. • If successful, approximately .65 acres (28,300 SF) of Coastal Wetlands will be created. • A review of available maps indicates that no archaeological sites are located in the immediate vicinity of the proposed development but sites Dr49, Dr50 and Dr54 are located 2,000 - 4,000 feet north of the wetland sill's location. In addition sites Dr53 and Dr22 are located 3,000 - 4,000 feet south, site Dr 23 is located 3,000 feet northeast, and site Dr52 is located 3,500 feet southeast.

Division of Parks and Recreation/Jockey's Ridge State Park PROJECT NARRATIVE Revised and Submitted: January 7, 2009 by Erin Fleckenstein The Roanoke Sound estuary is a rich, brackish-water coastal estuarine ecosystem. Fringing coastal marshes containing sawgrass, giant cordgrass, smooth cordgrass, black needlerush, and saltmeadow hay provide essential habitats for many fish and waterfowl. Within Jockey's Ridge State Park, this marsh system is healthy along approximately forty percent of the park's estuarine shoreline but is experiencing significant erosion elsewhere. The marsh protects the adjacent riparian barrier island trees, shrubs and grasses classified as of regional and state significance, and harbors rare species of plants and animals. In the 1970's and 1980's, on about 50 acres of land just south of the Villa Dunes subdivision, at the northern edge of the Jockey's Ridge dune system, vegetation was removed and a road was constructed. The land was cleared and platted. This area was to be a second phase of development for the subdivision. However, there was tremendous interest and pressure to preserve the dune system, and so the state of North Carolina purchased the land, along with several other tracts, and created what is now Jockey's Ridge State Park. The park has come to encompass -400 acres of active dunes, maritime shrub thicket, and - 1 mile of the Roanoke Sound estuarine shoreline. The development never took place, but this northern section of the park and dune has remained devoid of any plants due to its constantly changing nature and the vast amounts of sand that move through the area. It literally goes which ever way the wind is blowing. Some sand migration is to be expected and desired in a healthy "living" dune system, but the cleared land has functioned as a funnel or shoot, allowing sand from the dune to blow into fringing coastal marsh and the Roanoke Sound. This chokes out the fringing marsh and potential SAV beds. When the wind isn't blowing sand into the sound and marshes, it blows water and waves onto shore, causing the estuarine shoreline to erode. Couple the two together (being buried and eroded) and it's no surprise that this northern section of the shoreline needs a jump-start in order to re-establish itself. And that is the goal of this project: to help restore the fringing coastal marsh along the northern section of Jockey's Ridge State Park's estuarine shoreline. This project is funded by a grant from NOAA and USFWS, which was awarded to the North Carolina Coastal Federation in June 2008. Project partners include NC Division of Marine Fisheries, The Nature Conservancy, Jockey's Ridge State Park, and the North Carolina Coastal Federation. To ensure the success of the marsh restoration, a multi-tiered approach will be employed: 1) The foot of the dune system will be stabilized with sand fencing. Six 50' lengths of sand fence will be erected at a 45° angle to and 200' to the east of the estuarine shoreline. This will create "mini" dunes, 4-5' tall. On either side of where these mini dunes are to be created, there are naturally occurring small dunes, no more than 15' tall. They effectively buffer the maritime forest and fringe marsh on the estuarine shoreline. These mini dunes and upland plantings will serve to minimize sand migration that would otherwise choke the planted fringe marsh. 2) Approximately one acre of coastal fringing marsh will be restored along 425 linear feet of the park's shoreline. The acreage will be split thus: --0.4 acres upland scrub-shrub & upland marsh vegetation -.45 acres coastal marsh above NWL, --0.15 acres coastal marsh below NWL. The upland scrub-shrub area will consist of vegetation such as American Beach Grass (2' o.c.), as well as wax myrtle, red cedar, and live oak (4' o.c.). They will be planted just waterward of the mini dunes to function as a vegetative buffer and to connect to adjacent scrub-shrub maritime thickets and dune grass system. The coastal marsh above NWL will be planted with species such as Spartina patens, Juncus roeinarianus, and Spartina alterniflora spaced 1.5'-2' o.c. These will be planted so that they transition from American Beach grass on the upland edge to S. patens, to Juncus and finally S. alterniflora being closest to the water. These plantings will stabilize the shoreline and connect to existing marsh. The plant species and zonation selected mirror the vegetation found in the adjacent fringe marsh systems. The shoreline to be planted has a natural gentle slope that lends itself to planting the marsh without the need to grade or bring in additional fill. Approximately 0.15 acre of the proposed marsh restoration will occur below NWL and will be planted with Spartina alterniflora. 3) The planted shoreline will be buffered from the sound's wave energy and erosive forces with an oyster sill and coconut fiber "bio-logs". The sill will be created along 425 linear feet of the park's The project at Jockey's Ridge will engage community volunteers and the eighth grade science classes from First Flight Middle School. The middle school students are involved in both environmental education and the restoration activities of the project. They are receiving hands-on and classroom lessons about the importance of estuaries, estuarine marshes, water quality, and the restoration activities. The volunteers have participated in bagging events in fall 2008, which has resulted in 725 bushels of shell being bagged (about 3,000 oyster shell bags). These will be used to create the oyster sill. The sill will be constructed with adult volunteers and the students will assist with the marsh planting. All restoration activities will be done by hand. Materials will be transported via shallow draft boat, park UTV or 4 wheel drive dump truck. No equipment will be stored on site. We hope to begin constructing the sill in March `09 (provided the permit is approved in time) and then plant the marsh in April `09. Follow up plantings are anticipated in fall `09 and spring `10. NCCF's experience with this type of marsh restoration is that it may take several follow up plantings to get the marsh fully established. We are committed to ensuring the success of this project. As a direct result of this project, approximately one acre of coastal marsh habitat will be restored along 425 linear feet of the park's shoreline, creating a "living shoreline" planted by volunteer groups. The waterward edge of the newly planted marsh will be protected by a shallow water oyster shell sill which will buffer the marsh from erosion and provide valuable fisheries habitat. The upland edge of the restored marsh will be protected from potential burying by restoring the riparian shoreline buffer with mini sand dunes and maritime forest trees and shrubs. This restored marsh will enhance and promote submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV), adjacent shoreline salt marshes, and riparian maritime forests and shrub thicket maritime shorelines. The restored, enhanced and protected marsh, SAV, and riparian shoreline habitat all will support finfish, crabs, and other shellfish, as well as migrating shorebirds, and other park wildlife. The project site will become a destination within the park for tourists, school groups, park visitors and will be incorporated into the park's interpretive programming.

The oyster bags measure 24"x6"x6". Three bags will be laid end to end perpendicular to the shore to get the 6' width of the sill. Three bags will be stacked on top of each other to get the 18" in height. The sill will be no more than 6" above NHW. The sill will end no more than 30' waterward of NWL. Five sections of 20-25' lenghts of coconut fiber bio-logs will be laid behind the oyster sill to further buffer the planted marsh. Coastal marsh plants will be hand planted behind the oyster sill.
