Project summary Applicant proposes to construct an access charnel and boat basin at property adjacent to Cedar Island Bay and Hwy. 12 at Cedar_ is- land, Carteret County 9. Narrative description The applicant ' s property is a seven-acre tract located adjacent to Cedar Island Bay and Hwy. 12 in Cedar Island, Carteret County. The property is basically undeveloped and wooded with pines dominat- ing, interspersed with other species such as live oak. Elevations range from 2-4' and the soils are sandy. The shoreline is characterized by a 5-50 ' wide fringe of coastal wetlands composed primarily of black needlerush and smooth cord- grass. This fringe is backed by a sandy beach area prior to be- coming woodsland. The wetlands are interrupted by a dock and boat basin presently used by the applicant for family fishing operations. ., A 6 ' deep channel leads-_into_th.e----site--from-C-e-dar Island Bay. The applicant is proposing an access charnel and .highground boat ba- sin just west of the present landing. The access channel will con- nect into the. existing deep water of the existing channel and ter- minate in an 80 ' by 80 ' boat basin in highground. Spoil from the excavation will be spread on the high ground around the basin. A fish house and boat ramp are also planned. 10. Anticipated impacts In conducting the excavation of the access channel, about 900 sq.ft. of mixed, high marsh composed of black needlerush, salt grass and salt meadow grass, will be excavated. Another 4, 500 sq.ft. of inter- tidal salt water habitat will be removed by constructing this chan- nel. The highground boat basin will invove 7, 300 sq.ft. being ex- cavated and another 22, 000 sq.ft. being covered by spoil material . Approximately 3, 667 cu.yds. of spoil material will be produced by the operation. This portion of Cedar Island Bay is designated by the DMF as a pri- mary nursery area. Adjacent waters support juvenile shrimp, various finfish, clams, oysters, and blue crabs. .

A review of your application received December 10, 1984, for a Department of the Army permit to excavate a channel, canal and basin and construct a boat ramp off Cedar Island Bay, north of Roe, in CA'rteret County, North Carolina, indicates it to be a candidate for Federal authorization under this general permit. Accordingly, the administrative processing of your application will be accomplished by the North Carolina Office of Coastal Management. Comments from Federal review agencies will be furnished to the State. If your application must be withdrawn from this general permit process for any. reason, you will be written and informed of its further management. If there are no unresolved differences of State-Federal positions or policy, the final action taken on your application by the State will result in your receiving written notice from us that your application has been successfully processed under our general permit. Only after receiving such confirmation should you begin work. -2- Your application, pursuant to Section 10 of the River and Harbor Act, has been assigned No. SAWC085-N-016-0069 and will be coordinated by Mr. Bob Johnson, telephone (919) 343-4641. He is available to address questions or comments you may have. Sincerely, ' Charles W. Hollis Chief, Regulatory Branch Enclosure Copies Furnished: Mr. .

Hanson District Engineer U.S. Army Corps of Engineers , Wilmington P.O. Box 1890 Wilmington, North Carolina 28402 ATTENTION: Bob Johnson SUBJECT: Eugene Styron (Public Notice No. SAWCO-85-N-016-0069) Dear Colonel Hanson: This is in response to the subject public notice proposing the construction of an access channel and a 80 ft. by 80 ft. upland boat basin adjacent to Cedar Island Bay, in Cedar Island, in Carteret County, North Carolina. The project site is located immediately west of an existing dock and boat basin presently utilized by the applicant for fishing operations. A six-foot deep channel leads into the site from Cedar Island Bay. The proposed access channel will connect into the deep water of the existing channel and terminate in the proposed upland basin. As a result of this activity, approximately 900 sq.ft. of salt marsh dominated by salt grass (Distichlis spicata) , black needleruch (Juncus roemarianus) and salt hay (Spartina patens ) will be eliminated. In addition, about 4,500 sq.ft. of intertidal saltwater bottom habitat will also be lost. Based on our review of the public notice and discussions with Corps of Engineer personnel, it is evident that the purpose of the project is to allow the applicant to move his fishing activities from the existing boat basin to the proposed one. However, the actual need for this project has not been demon- strated. -2- Consequently, because of the impacts to aquatic resources and the lack of justification for the project , we recommend that the subject permit application be denied.

Project summary Applicant proposes to construct an access channel and boat _ basin at property adjacent to Cedar Island Bay and Hwy. 12 at Cedar Is- land, Carteret County 9. Narrative description The applicant ' s property is a seven--acre tract located adjacent to Cedar Island Bay and Hwy. 12 in Cedar Island, Carteret County. The property is basically undeveloped and wooded with pines dominat- ing, interspersed with other species such as live oak. Elevations range from 2-4 ' and the soils are sandy. The shoreline is characterized by a 5-50 ' wide fringe of coastal wetlands composed primarily of black needlerush and smooth cord- grass. This fringe is backed. by a sandy beach area prior to be- coming woodsland. The wetlands are interrupted by a dock and boat basin presently used by the ,applicant for family fishing operations.. A 6 ' deep channel leads into the site from Cedar Island Bay. The applicant is proposing an access channel and highground boat ba- sin just west of the present landing. The access channel will con- nect into the existing deep water of the existing channel and ter- minate in an 80 ' by 80 ' boat basin in highground. Spoil from the excavation will be spread on the high ground around the basin. A fish house and boat ramp are also planned. 10. Anticipated impacts In conducting the excavation of the access channel, about 900 sq.ft. of mixed, high marsh composed' of black needlerush, salt grass and salt meadow grass, will be excavated. Another 4, 500 sq.ft. of inter- tidal salt water habitat will be removed by constructing this chan- nel. The highground boat basin will invove 7, 300 sq.ft. being ex- cavated and another 22, 000 sq.ft. being covered by spoil material . Approximately 3, 667 cu.yds. of spoil material will be produced by the operation. This portion of Cedar Island Bay is designated by the DMF as a pri- mary nursery area. Adjacent waters support juvenile shrimp, various finfish, clams, oysters, and blue crabs. t Submitted by Nelson Paul Date January 18, 1985 APPLICATION [IN FqRs8PERMIT TO EXCAVATE AND/OR FILL WATER QUALITY CERTIFICAOC^' rC EASEMENT IN LANDS COVERED•BY WATER CAMA PERMIT FOR MAJOR DEVENT____ j Department of Administration State of North Carolina - •,— " (GS 146-12) Department of the Army— Department of Natural Resources and Community Development Corps of Engineers;-Wilmington,D* riGr•, -� (GS 113-229, 143.215.3(a)(i), 143-215.3(c), 113A-118 (33 CFR 209.320-324 ' Please type or print and fill in all blanks.
