The subject project has been reviewed for water quality impacts and
the following comments are offered:
1) A 401 Certification is required for this project and has been
issued on September 20, 1985. _
2) The revised stormwater management plan for this project has
been reviewed to determine whether adequate assurance is
provided to protect adjacent SA waters from fecal coliform
contamination. The 100-year storm was used to evaluate the
plan. Both the total rainfall and one-hour intensity were
considered. There are many different intensities that one can
attribute to the 100-year storm. Our evaluation for this
specific site is that the design intensity of 2.5 inches/hour
used in the stormwater plan is sufficient to assure protection
of water quality standards for the adjacent waters.

A 401 Water Quality Certification will riot be required, this office
has no objections to the proposed project.
x It is recommended that a 401 Water Quality Certification be issued
containing a turbidity limit of 25 : 50 NTU. This office has no
objections to the proposed project.
The proposed project appears to meet the conditions of the General
Certification for:
This office has no objections to the proposed project.
Additional Comments:
A revised stormwater management plan for the proposed development was delivered to
this office on 9-17-85 by Mr. Dal Barber. The project involves the development
of 415 camp sites, 3 central bath houses, sales office, tennis courts, and clubhouse,
and a boat ramp. The sewage will be treated in 7 separate septic tank/nitrification
systems.
The project will result in approximately 27% impervious area. The design features
of the stormwater management plan are as follows:
1) A peak one hour intensity rainfall of 212 inches was used in the calculations
(a frequency interval of approximately once in 5 years);
cc:

2) Paved areas will be graded to direct storm runoff to one of 3 retention ponds.
3) 88% of runoff from concrete pads (camp sites) was included in the calcula-
tions of the detention basins. (This indicates 12% would run off to adjacent
grassed areas and percolate into soil)
4) Runoff from buildings located within 30 ft. of surface waters or paved areas will
be directed to retention basins.
5) Runoff from buildings set back 30 feet or more from drainage ways will be
directed by sheet flow over grassed buffers.
The proposed stormwater management plan adequately addresses the impacts of storm
runoff to surface waters. The design features of the plan are reasonable and should
protect water quality standards in adjacent SA waters. It is recommended that a 401
water quality certification be issued.

CAMA Permit Application - Pea Island Resort, Dare County
The Division of Marine Fisheries objects to the Pea Island Resort project
as proposed because it is felt that the stormwater management plan is in-
adequate to protect the quality of shellfish waters in the immediate vicinity
of the proposed project. The Division of Marine Fisheries also feels that the
proposed project contains an unacceptable amount of impervious surface within
the 75 foot estuarine area of environmental concern (AEC). The waters of
P-amli=co-found lying-to-the-west of--the--?reposed-lroj-ect--are-cl-mifi-ecF-as -SA
and are therefore approved for the harvest of shellfish for human consumption.
It is felt that the project, if developed as proposed, will result in closures
of nearby shellfish waters due to increased stormwater runoff and associated
increases in coliform bacteria levels.
The Division of Marine Fisheries has expended little of its oyster
rehabilitation effort in the immediate vicinity of the proposed project in the
past because of a lack of suitable equipment. The DMF has recently received
funding for construction of a shallow draft vessel and will increase its
oyster rehabilitation efforts in the eastern portion of Pamlico Sound in 1986.
The waters near the proposed project currently meet the Division's criteria
for shellfish rehabilitation sites, and it is conceivable that a shellfish
management area could be established in the vicinity in the future. Shellfish
rehabilitation efforts in the area would be precluded if the waters were
closed to the harvest of shellfish because of pollution.
The area of Pamlico Sound adjacent to the project site is heavily
utilized by commercial crab potters, as well as serving as an overwintering
area for female crabs. Stormwater runoff could affect the value of this area
for crabs and crabbing. In addition, the applicant should be advised of the
potential for conflicts between commercial crabpot fishermen and non-
commercial users associated with campground development.
It appears that the three piers which.are proposed to be located in the
natural slough on the north side of the property have the potential for
docking more than 10 boats and meet the Division of Coastal Management's
criteria for a marina. Also, the 500 feet of walkway running along the edge
of the slough from the sales office to near Highway 12 and then westerly to
the outermost pier has the potential for docking a large number of vessels of
various sizes. The Division of Marine Fisheries is opposed to any future
development of this natural slough as a marina.

It is recommended that the following changes be made in the design of the
proposed project in order to address Marine Fisheries concerns:
(1) The stormwater management plan should be designed in accordance with
the Division of Environmental Management guidelines of a 100 year
storm event rather than the 5 year storm event used in the August
29, 1985 stormwater management plan submitted by the applicant.
(2) Retention ponds should be located as far as possible from the SA
waters of the Pamlico Sound or any outlets to these waters. In all
cases the ponds should not be located within the 75 foot estuarine
AEC.
(3) No campsites should be located within the 75 foot estuarine AEC.
(4) Impervious surface within the proposed project should be reduced by
the use of turfstone or similar materials whenever possible,
particularly in the low traffic areas such as the pads where the
camping will occur.
(5) The piers in the natural slough on the north side of the proposed
project should not be designed or constructed in -such a manner--that_-
the -sfite -couldl-ater -be developed- into a marina by the addition of
piles or mooring facilities along the walkway leading to the piers.

-1. A=401_ Water Quality Certification will be required
for the project as proposed:
2. Since the effective impervious area of the proposed
project exceeds 10%, it will be necessary for the
applicant to specifically address stormwater controls
necessary for protection of adjacent SA waters. Our
.field staff has met with Mr. White and his engineer
and advised them as to the need for such a stormwater
plan. It is our understanding that his engineer will
be submitting the plan in the near future. We will
be able to complete our review and advise concerning
water quality impacts after receiving the stormwater
plan.

systems.
I met with the applicant, Mr. Stan White and his engineer Mr. Marcus Felton on
August 15, 1985. I indicated to each of them that our primary concern regarding
the proposed development was the impacts associated with storm runoff. It is
my understanding that Mr. Felton will be submitting a stormwater management
plan in the near future. I am not in a position to offer final comments and
recommendations regarding the 401 certification until an evaluation of the
stormwater management plan has been completed. (See letter dated 8/21/85 to

PEA ISLAND RESORT
SITE DESCRIPTION
The applicant owns 48.7 acres near Waves, North Carolina, which extends from the
Pamlico Sound across N.C. Highway 12 to the National Park Service boundary. The high
ground is separated from the sound by a wide border of wetlands comprised of myrtles,
cord grass, black needlerush, salt grass, salt meadow grass. These wetlands have been
flagged and are represented on the blue lines. On the north side of the property,
a natural slough extends from the sound to the other side of the highway. This slough
is bordered by black needlerush and salt grass which has also been flagged and depicted
on the plats. It is in this area that a sales office, a handicapped access ramp,
an unpaved parking area to the north, and a paved parking area to the south of the
sales office has been constructed under CAMA Minor Permit #85-019. The property on
the ocean side of Highway 12 is typical rolling, sandy soils vegetated by myrtles and
scrub pines and extends to within 300 to 350 feet of the first line of stable,
natural vegetation along the ocean where it abuts the National Park Service boundary.
In order to describe what is proposed by the applicant, the sheet numbers will be
used to describe specifics while some general characteristics of the proposal will be
described.
Sheet #3
The northern section of oceanward development has an annual erosion rate of 8 feet
per year for 250 feet from the northern boundary and then becomes 5 feet per year for
the remainder of the oceanfront. All structures proposed are outside of the 30x set-
back except for the dune crossovers. The applicant is providing a letter of permission
from the National Park Service to construct these structures on their property. A
well site is proposed on the border of the property with the recharge area using a
portion of the Parks Service property. A pavillion is proposed which is less than
5,000 square feet and thus is constructed landward of the setback as is the proposed
gazebo. This sheet also shows three bathhouses and seven drain fields to service
them and the septic hookups from each of the 95 paved camping areas. Paved road
access is proposed in this area.
Sheet #4
This southern section of oceanfront development lies within an area having an
annual erosion rate of 5 feet per year. The proposed gazebo and two well points are
behind the 30X setback, but once again the well recharge areas extend into the NPS
land. Four drain fields are proposed in this area with repair areas. Ninety-six
paved camping areas are proposed with paved road accesses.
Sheet #5
This area is landward of the proposed development depicted on Sheet #3 and
adjacent to Highway 12. Four drain fields and two bath houses are to be located in

PEA ISLAND RESORT
Page 2
this area. Adjacent to the highway a large club house will be constructed which will
separate the 64 paved compsites from the highway. Paved access, as well as the main
entrance, is proposed in this area. Tennis courts, shuffleboards, and other recrea-
tional activities will be provided in this area.
Sheet #6
Development in this area lies landward of that proposed on Sheet #4 and south of
that depicted on Sheet #5.
Seventy-one paved compsites and one drain field is proposed in this area. Paved
access is also proposed.
Sheet #7
This plat depicts in part the portion of the proposal which has been constructed
under LAMA Minor Permit 85-019. The 36-space parking lot on the north has been
constructed but not paved. This request includes authorization to pave this area.
The parking to the west of this parking lot is proposed for boat trailer parking and
a 15-foot-wide -boat- r_amR is- dep=i cater wh ch would- result -in the fill i ng of -150- square
-feet of Juncus marsh. The piers are proposed to be constructed over water in the
canal except for a deck which is to be located partially over marsh and will be
associated with a boat rental facility on high ground. The sales office access ramp
and paved parking to the south of the canal was authorized by CAMA Minor Permit 85-019.
Also proposed in this area are 22 paved camping sites which will be constructed
adjacent to the wetland line depicted on the plat. A gazebo is proposed on the high
ground with walkways over the marsh. One 12x30 platform is proposed to be constructed
over Juncus and Spartina patens marsh.
Sheet #8
This area is to the south of the area depicted on Sheet V. Proposed are 72 paved
camping areas and walkways over the marsh. Two 12x30 platforms are proposed over Juncus
and Spartina marsh and a gazebo is proposed adjacent to the sound over Juncus, Distichlis,
and Spartina marsh. The gazebo on the most southern boundary will extena over 0
marsh only. Paved access ways will be constructed.

ANTICIPATED IMPACTS
The applicant has redesigned the proposal to avoid the siting of camping areas
in wetlands; however, walkways, platforms, and gazebos are proposed in lush coastal
marsh. A 15-foot-wide boat ramp will result in the filling of 150 square feet of
Juncus roemerianus. Most of the development proposed on the 48-acre trace involves
the grading and paving of high ground sandy soils. Care must be taken in designing
the project to minimize storm water runnoff from entering adjacent waters. The
structures on the oceanfront (except for the dune crossovers) are behind the NPS land
which is 300 to 350 feet from the first line of stable, natural vegetation and,
therefore, beyond the 30X setback for this area. The recharge area for some well
points and dune crossovers extend into property controlled by NPS. The applicant
has assured me that a letter of permission to undertake development on this property
will be coming from the NPS.
CAMA REVIEW
The project site is classified as transition in the Dare County Land Use Plan.
The proposal is consistent with that classification.
