deny the proposed work pursuant to applicable procedures of the following Statutory
Authorities:
® Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C. 1344)
❑ Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act of 1899 (33 U.S.C. 403)
❑ Section 103 of the Marine Protection, Research and Sanctuaries Act of 1972
(33 U.S.C. 1413)
Location
Location Description: The project site is located on the north side of the road at 4470
Seashore Drive, adjacent to Nelson Bay, in Atlantic, Carteret County, North Carolina.
Project Area (acres): —111 Nearest Town: Atlantic
Nearest Waterway: Nelson Bay River Basin: White Oak
Latitude and Longitude: 34.88084 N, -76.35941W
Existing Site Conditions
Activities on the property were initiated sometime mid -2015 and the proposed access
roads, taxiway, utility line, and the two ponds have been constructed and are in place.
There is an existing airstrip, or runway, aligned in a north to south direction, and bisects
the 111 acre property. This airstrip was constructed several decades ago and its footprint
has recently been built-up with material from the two ponds.
The majority of the surrounding area consists of a typical upland and low terrace of wet
Pocosin with upland long leaf pine ridges. Predominate hydric soil types are listed as
Murville mucky sand, a very poorly drained soil, and Leon sand, a poorly drained soil.
The majority of the drainage flows southward and empties into the tidal waters of Nelson
Bay. Vegetation is typical of Pocosin wet communities with canopy trees of Pinus
serotina (pond pine), Magnolia virginiana (sweet bay), Persea palustrus (red bay), and
Nyssa sylvatica (black gum); subcanopy of Cyrilla racemiflora (titi); and ground cover of
Lyonia lucida (fetterbush), Ilex glabra (ink berry), and Smilax laurifolia (laurel leaf
greenbrier). Upland ridges consist of Pinus palustrus (long -leaf pine) canopy with
Myrica cerifera (wax myrtle) understory and ground cover of Ilex glabra (ink berry) and
Aristida stricta (wire grass).
Applicant's Stated Purpose
Basic: The basic purpose is to utilize the property for recreational aviation and to
provide "fly -in" aviation access to the property for the owners and for future periodic
charitable use by military veterans and their families.
Overall: The goal of the project improvements is to: (1) maintain and improve
safety associated with the use of the existing grass airstrip for aircraft take -off, taxi, and
landing purposes; (2) construct infrastructure to access and use upland areas of their
property; (3) provide infrastructure fire protection; (4) maintain the pond, which was
excavated for material use to build up the pre-existing runway, for irrigational and
recreational purposes; and (5) develop the property as a "fly-in/fly-out" residential and
recreational property for personal and periodic charitable use by military veterans and
their families.
Project Description
The applicant proposes to retain the perimeter roads, taxiway, hangar access road, and
both ponds for the purposes above and plans to restore impacted wetlands at various
locations. It should be noted that there are some discrepancies between the Corps' initial
findings and information in the application regarding the exact amount of existing
wetland impacts and acreage being proposed. In 2016, the applicant employed a wetland
consultant to delineate the Waters of the U.S. on the entire 111 -acre property; however,
our office has not verified the accuracy of this jurisdictional boundary.
Perimeter Roads: The applicant proposes to retain the perimeter roads that traverse the
southwestern, western, and northern property boundaries and that currently impact
approximately 1.57 acres of wetlands. These roads vary in width from 20 to 33 feet and
are to have dual purposes: provide access to future cabin sites for wounded/disabled
veterans and storage facilities and provide fire and life safety protection throughout the
property. Plans are to reduce the road footprint to a 12-13 foot top width with a 2:1 side
slope and to restore the remaining wetlands by removing the additional fill material to
original elevations.
Taxiway: Plans include retaining the existing taxiway, which will provide airplane
access from the runway to the proposed hangar site. This access runs north and south
from the proposed hangar site to the northern end of the runway. The connection access
is approximately 20 feet wide and currently has impacted approximately 0.23 acre of
jurisdictional wetlands. The applicant proposes to reduce the footprint of impacted
wetlands to 0.12 acre, which is a minimum design in order to conform to "Design
Standards Based on TDG" contained in FAA Advisory Circular 150/5300-13A, and the
remaining wetlands will be restored back to original grade via the removal of existing fill
material.
Hangar Access Road: The purpose of this existing road is to provide safe access in the
most direct and shortest route from the hangar to the airstrip without interference with the
safe airplane access of the Taxiway. The access would also allow a fire- and life -safety
requirement for access to the hangar and irrigation pond in the event of an aircraft failure
on the taxiway that would otherwise block access. The current road has impacted
approximately 0. 16 acre of wetlands and plans are to narrow the road surface to 12-13
feet wide with a 2:1 slope to reduce the impacts to approximately 0.04 acre of wetlands.
Recreational/Irrigational Pond: The initial use of the ponds was to provide material to
improve the existing onsite runway by elevating its footprint several feet high and to
irrigate the ground cover for stabilization. The footprint of the Upper Pond has impacted
over 2.0 acres, including perimeter fill, and the total impacts associated with the Lower
Pond has yet to be determined due to current conditions. It should be noted that the
majority of the Lower Pond was excavated in uplands.
Over 0.5 acre of stockpile material, mostly overburden from the ponds, was placed in
jurisdictional wetlands in a location adjacent to the Upper Pond. The applicant proposes
3
to restore the wetlands in this area by removing the material back to the original wetland
contours.
Avoidance and Minimization
The applicant provided the following information in support of efforts to avoid and/or
minimize impacts to the aquatic environment: With the configuration and amount of
wetlands on the property, access to the upland cabin sites are unable to be constructed in
a practicable manner to avoid wetland impacts and there are no available high ground
options to practicably connect the hangar site with the taxiway and hangar access roads
without impacting wetlands. The perimeter roads, taxiway, and hangar access road are
being proposed to the minimum width in order to reduce wetland impacts while
providing safe passageways. The applicant states that the reduction of the length,
number, and/or connectivity or configuration of the proposed roadways would greatly
diminish the ability to use the various upland areas of the property for guest cabins and
maintenance, storage, and recreational buildings and facilities. In investigating an
alternative for fire protection/irrigation, a groundwater well was determined to be
susceptible to depletion (aka dry well) by fire pump trucks in the event of emergency fire
protection calls.
Compensatory Mitigation
The applicant offers to create approximately 2.4 acres of wetlands onsite as
compensatory mitigation to offset unavoidable functional loss to the aquatic environment.
Several areas have been identified as potential onsite wetland creation sites. Plans are to
convert uplands to wetlands via the introduction of ditches through Leon/Murville soil
"uplands" located near jurisdictional wetlands. Two specific locations of these wetland
creation opportunities have the characteristics of 1) being directly adjacent fire plow
lines, 2) having topographic relief of less than 12 inches, and 3) being completely
surrounded by wetlands. In addition to this creation approach, the applicant is offering to
create approximately 1.08 acres of littoral shelf emergent wetland within the southern
half of the Upper Pond. Material for this proposed creation would originate from the
stockpile material area that is planned for removal in order to restore the over 0.5 acre
area adjacent to the pond.
Essential Fish Habitat
Pursuant to the Magnuson -Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act, this
Public Notice initiates the Essential Fish Habitat (EFH) consultation requirements. The
Corps' initial determination is that the proposed project would not effect EFH or
associated fisheries managed by the South Atlantic or Mid Atlantic Fishery Management
Councils or the National Marine Fisheries Service.
E
Cultural Resources
Pursuant to Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, Appendix C of
33 CFR Part 325, and the 2005 Revised Interim Guidance for Implementing Appendix C,
the District Engineer consulted district files and records and the latest published version
of the National Register of Historic Places and initially determines that:
❑ Should historic properties, or properties eligible for inclusion in the National
Register, be present within the Corps' permit area; the proposed activity requiring
the DA permit (the undertaking) is a type of activity that will have no potential to
cause an effect to an historic properties.
® No historic properties, nor properties eligible for inclusion in the National
Register, are present within the Corps' permit area; therefore, there will be no
historic properties affected. The Corps subsequently requests concurrence from
the SHPO (or THPO).
❑ Properties ineligible for inclusion in the National Register are present within the
Corps' permit area; there will be no historic properties affected by the proposed
work. The Corps subsequently requests concurrence from the SHPO (or THPO).
❑ Historic properties, or properties eligible for inclusion in the National Register,
are present within the Corps' permit area; however, the undertaking will have no
adverse effect on these historic properties. The Corps subsequently requests
concurrence from the SHPO (or THPO).
❑ Historic properties, or properties eligible for inclusion in the National Register,
are present within the Corps' permit area; moreover, the undertaking may have an
adverse effect on these historic properties. The Corps subsequently initiates
consultation with the SHPO (or THPO).
❑ The proposed work takes place in an area known to have the potential for the
presence of prehistoric and historic cultural resources; however, the area has not
been formally surveyed for the presence of cultural resources. No sites eligible
for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places are known to be present
in the vicinity of the proposed work. Additional work may be necessary to
identify and assess any historic or prehistoric resources that may be present.
The District Engineer's final eligibility and effect determination will be based upon
coordination with the SHPO and/or THPO, as appropriate and required, and with full
consideration given to the proposed undertaking's potential direct and indirect effects on
historic properties within the Corps -identified permit area.
5
The applicant provided SHPO with information on this proposal and SHPO's office
replied on October 18, 2017 stating that they "are aware of no historic resources which
would be affected by the project", adding no further comment.
Endangered Species
Pursuant to the Endangered Species Act of 1973, the Corps reviewed the project area,
examined all information provided by the applicant and consulted the latest North
Carolina Natural Heritage Database. Based on available information:
❑ The Corps determines that the proposed project would not affect federally listed
endangered or threatened species or their formally designated critical habitat.
❑ The Corps determines that the proposed project may affect federally listed
endangered or threatened species or their formally designated critical habitat.
❑ The Corps initiates consultation under Section 7 of the ESA and will not make
a permit decision until the consultation process is complete.
❑ The Corps will consult under Section 7 of the ESA and will not make a permit
decision until the consultation process is complete.
❑ The Corps has initiated consultation under Section 7 of the ESA and will not
make a permit decision until the consultation process is complete.
❑ The Corps determines that the proposed project may affect federally listed
endangered or threatened species or their formally designated critical habitat.
Consultation has been completed for this type of activity and the effects of the
proposed activity have been evaluated and/or authorized by the National Marine
Fisheries Service (NMFS) in the South Atlantic Regional Biological Opinion or
its associated documents, including 7(a)(2) & 7(d) analyses and Critical Habitat
assessments. A copy of this public notice will be sent to the NMFS.
® The Corps is not aware of the presence of species listed as threatened or
endangered or their critical habitat formally designated pursuant to the
Endangered Species Act of 1973 (ESA) within the project area. The Corps will
make a final determination on the effects of the proposed project upon additional
review of the project and completion of any necessary biological assessment
and/or consultation with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and/or National
Marine Fisheries Service.

Other Required Authorizations
The Corps forwards this notice and all applicable application materials to the appropriate
State agencies for review.
North Carolina Division of Water Resources (NCDWR): The Corps will generally not
make a final permit decision until the NCDWR issues, denies, or waives the state
Certification as required by Section 401 of the Clean Water Act (PL 92-500). The receipt
of the application and this public notice, combined with the appropriate application fee, at
the NCDWR Central Office in Raleigh constitutes initial receipt of an application for a
401 Certification. A waiver will be deemed to occur if the NCDWR fails to act on this
request for certification within sixty days of receipt of a complete application. Additional
information regarding the 401 Certification may be reviewed at the NCDWR Central
Office, 401 and Buffer Permitting Unit, 512 North Salisbury Street, Raleigh, North
Carolina 27604-2260. All persons desiring to make comments regarding the application
for a 401 Certification should do so, in writing, by January 08, 2018 to:
NCDWR Central Office

(USPS mailing address): 1617 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-1617
Or,
(physical address): 512 North Salisbury Street, Raleigh, North Carolina 27604
North Carolina Division of Coastal Management (NCDCM):
® The application did not include a certification that the proposed work complies
with and would be conducted in a manner that is consistent with the approved
North Carolina Coastal Zone Management Program. Pursuant to 33 CFR 325.2
(b)(2) the Corps cannot issue a Department of Army (DA) permit for the
proposed work until the applicant submits such a certification to the Corps and
the NCDCM, and the NCDCM notifies the Corps that it concurs with the
applicant's consistency certification. As the application did not include the
consistency certification, the Corps will request, upon receipt„ concurrence or
objection from the NCDCM.
❑ Based upon all available information, the Corps determines that this application
for a Department of Army (DA) permit does not involve an activity which would
affect the coastal zone, which is defined by the Coastal Zone Management (CZM)
Act (16 U.S.C. § 1453).
Evaluation
The decision whether to issue a permit will be based on an evaluation of the probable
impacts including cumulative impacts of the proposed activity on the public interest.
7
That decision will reflect the national concern for both protection and utilization of
important resources. The benefit which reasonably may be expected to accrue from the
proposal must be balanced against its reasonably foreseeable detriments. All factors
which may be relevant to the proposal will be considered including the cumulative effects
thereof, among those are conservation, economics, aesthetics, general environmental
concerns, wetlands, historic properties, fish and wildlife values, flood hazards, flood plain
values (in accordance with Executive Order 11988), land use, navigation, shoreline
erosion and accretion, recreation, water supply and conservation, water quality, energy
needs, safety, food and fiber production, mineral needs, considerations of property
ownership, and, in general, the needs and welfare of the people. For activities involving
the discharge of dredged or fill materials in waters of the United States, the evaluation of
the impact of the activity on the public interest will include application of the
Environmental Protection Agency's 404(b)(1) guidelines.
Commenting Information
The Corps of Engineers is soliciting comments from the public; Federal, State and local
agencies and officials, including any consolidated State Viewpoint or written position of
the Governor; Indian Tribes and other interested parties in order to consider and evaluate
the impacts of this proposed activity. Any comments received will be considered by the
Corps of Engineers to determine whether to issue, modify, condition or deny a permit for
this proposal. To make this decision, comments are used to assess impacts on endangered
species, historic properties, water quality, general environmental effects and the other
public interest factors listed above. Comments are used in the preparation of an
Environmental Assessment (EA) and/or an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS)
pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). Comments are also used to
determine the need for a public hearing and to determine the overall public interest of the
proposed activity.
Any person may request, in writing, within the comment period specified in this notice,
that a public hearing be held to consider the application. Requests for public hearings
shall state, with particularity, the reasons for holding a public hearing. Requests for a
public hearing will be granted, unless the District Engineer determines that the issues
raised are insubstantial or there is otherwise no valid interest to be served by a hearing.
The Corps is soliciting comments from the public; Federal, State and local agencies and
officials, including any consolidated State viewpoint or written position of the Governor;
Indian Tribes and other interested parties in order to consider and evaluate the applicant's
proposal. Any comments received will be considered by the Corps of Engineers in
evaluating the approval of this permit request. To make this decision, all factors which
may be relevant to the proposal will be considered including the cumulative effects
thereof, among those are conservation, economics, aesthetics, general environmental
concerns, wetlands, historic properties, fish and wildlife values, flood hazards, flood plain
values (in accordance with Executive Order 11988), land use, navigation, shoreline
erosion and accretion, recreation, water supply and conservation, water quality, energy
needs, safety, food and fiber production, mineral needs, considerations of property
ownership, and in general, the needs and welfare of the people.
The Corps has reviewed the prospectus and has examined all information provided by the
applicant. Our preliminary review indicates the following: 1) An Environmental Impact
Statement will not be required; 2) No listed species of fish, wildlife, and/or plant species
(or Critical Habitat) under the Endangered Species Act of 1973 is expected to be
impacted; 3) There are no potential cultural or historic resources located within the
proposed project site; and 4) There are no Essential Fish Habitat (EFH) areas within the
subject bank A "no effect" determination for threatened and endangered species and for
cultural and/or historic resources has been made at this time; and it has been determined
that no additional EFH evaluation will be conducted. Any additional or new information
may change any of these preliminary findings.
Written comments pertinent to the proposed work, as outlined above and as described in
the prospectus, will be received by the Corps of Engineers, Wilmington District, until
5pm, December 8, 2017. Comments should be submitted to Mr. Mickey Sugg, 69
Darlington Avenue, Wilmington, North Carolina 28403, or via internet at
