with the access of any riparian owner. Access for lot 15, and perhaps others,
would be blocked.
(3) The 20 linear feet of bulkhead will be constructed across the waterward
end of the existing boat ramp as shown on permit plans.
(4) All backfill materials will be obtained from an upland source and confined
landward of the permitted bulkhead.
See attached sheet for Additional Conditions
This permit action may be appealed by the permittee
or other qualified persons within twenty (20) days of the
issuing date. An appeal requires resolution prior to work
initiation or continuance, as the case may be.
This permit must be accessible on-site to Department
personnel when the project is inspected for compliance.

(5) The fill material will be clean and free of any pollutants, except in trace
quantities. Metal products, organic materials, or unsightly debris will
not be used.
(6) Grading and concrete work along the bulkhead will be sloped away from the
water so as to prevent surface water from the parking and forklift drive
area from entering the Calabash River.
(7?) The activity will be conducted in such a manner as to prevent a significant
increase in turbidity outside the area of construction or construction-related
discharge. Increases such that the turbidity in the waterbody is 50 NTUs
or less are not considered significant.
Marina Operation
(8) A pumpout facility will be installed and operational by March 1, 1987 in
order to serve boats with sewage holding tanks.
(9) The permittee will post a sign in clear view of boating public stating that
a no sewage discharge policy will be enforced at the marina.
(10) Living aboard boats docked at the marina is not authorized.
(11) Overflow from the pumpout holding tank is not authorized and would constitute
a violation of stale water quality standards. The land based holding tank
must be pumped out and the waste disposed of in a manner approved by the
County Health Department.
(12) No attempt will be made by the permittee to prevent the full and free use
by the public of all navigable waters at or adjacent to the authorized work.
• (13) This permit does not convey any property rights, either in real estate or
material, or any exclusive privileges; and it does not authorize any injury

The Subject application has been reviewed for water
quality impacts and the following comments are offered:
1. This project does require a 401 certification but
does meet the requirements of general
certification for bulkhead construction.
2. The land surface should be sloped away from the
bulkhead to prevent runoff from the forklift road
and parking area entering adjacent surface waters.
3. Any discharge of sewage from this facility or
boats using this facility will violate the fecal
coliform water quality standards. The following
should be included to reduce the potential for
such violations:
a. Transient or live-aboards should be
prohibited at the marina.
b. Pump-out facilities must be provided. If the
pump-out facility utilizes a holding tank,
the septage should be pumped out and disposed
of in an approved manner. Discharge or
overflow from the tank is prohibited. The
pump-out system.shall be maintained and

The applicant proposes to construct a floating deck with 20 boat slips.
The project also includes a bulkhead, a pump-out facility and a covered
deck and gazebo. The marina site is on the Calabash River classified
SA, closed to shellfishing.
The project has been reviewed to determine impacts to water quality.
The following comments are offered:
1. A 401 certification is required but should meet the general
certification for bulkhead construction.
2. The land surface should be sloped away from the bulkhead to
prevent runoff from the forklift road and parking area.
3. Calabash River is closed to shellfishing, therefore a marina would
not violate the antidegredation standards. The numerical fecal
coliform standard for SA waters may be potentially violated
however, unless the following conditions are met and strictly
enforced:
a. Transient or "live-aboard" docking is prohibited at the
marina.
b. Pump-out facilities must be provided. If the pump-out system
utilizes a holding tank, the septage should be pumped out and
disposed of in an approved manner. Discharge or overflow from
the tank is prohibited. The pump-out system shall be
maintained and operable at all times.

9(a) SITE DESCRIPTION:
The project site is located on Lot #16, Block 3 of the "Riverview Acres"
Subdivision which is also situated along the northern shoreline of Calabash River
in the Town of Calabash on the end of S.R. 1204. An existing fish/beverage house;
"L" shaped dock; 12' wide concrete boat ramp; and sand/gravel parking area exists
at the site. This commercial fishhouse is located between two single family
residential units and is the last commercial establishment along the federally
dredged channel of Calabash River. Cordgrass marsh (Spartina alterniflora) is
found growing vigorously throught the area right up to the upland banks. The
river is classified as a secondary nursery area but exhibits productive mud
flat characteristics adjacent to the main channel. The waters are classified as
S.A. and this area has been closed to shellf ishing. existing oat basin
measuring 30' x 60' to a -4' MLW depth was dug two years ago under CAMA permit
#274-84 along side the concrete dock. The High brothers have been using the
property as a commercial business (fishhouse, beverage sales, ramp fees, etc.)
since 1979.
9(b) PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The applicant's propose to convert the business more into a marina and yacht club
operation. The fishhouse business will remain. In addition, a 280' long by 6'
wide floating dock will moor 20 vessels between 16' by 3' floating finger docks.
Some additional transient docking could be aligned on the north side of the
main dock just northeast of the existing elevated building. A 10' x 20' covered
deck and 15' by 20' open deck is proposed along this northeastern side as well.
A pump out station with a 850 gallon, underground storage tank is also proposed
as an amenity for the marina facility. This application wishes.to bulkhead
across the boat ramp and backfill it up to the original lot elevation of #8' (MSL).
This bulkhead would follow the original alignment that was existing back in 1984
before the ramp was permitted. The purpose of backfilling the ramp is to achieve
boat haul-out capabilities with a fork lift. A 12' wide 6" thick concrete
roadway will run across S.R. 1204 to six lots the applicants own and are
presently storing boats. The boat dry storage and haul-out facility is a vital
part of the applicant's marina plans. No additional dredging is anticipated
at this time.
10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS:
The operation of a commercial marina at this location most certainly will be in
violation of the subdivision's restrictive covenants and is not in keeping with
the residential character of the lots on either side. The permanent docking of
20 large boats in this upper section of the Calabash River may cause degradation
of S.A. classified waters. The haul-out operation should not add to bacterial
contamination but depending on the size of the operation it could deteriorate
water quality as well. Heavy boat activity around the ramp area and on the
north side of the proposed dock could accelerate the undermining of productive
cordgrass marshland. About 50 s.f. of alterniflora will be impacted by shading
from the covered decks. The rest of the two decks will be over an old spoil

Jerry & James L. High

pile vegetated with predominately marsh elder and sea oxeye and open water of
approximately -4' depth (MLW). This 280' long floating dock may also interfere
with the riparian rights of adjacent property owners. The applicants claim their
mother owns the low tidal wetlands in front (waterward) of other adjacent
property owners in this subdivision. A 205 claim may have not been filed.
As to stormwater the existing tract is sand and marl and runs towards the ramp.
The proposed bulkhead could change the existing slope back from the water. The
proposed concrete fork lift road would account for 21% impervious cover. The
rest of the parking lot surface will be coquina on sand.

Dear Mr. High:
The Department of Natural Resources and Community Development hereby acknowledges
receipt of the information which we requested in our letter to you dated March 14, 1986.
The material you have submitted now appears adequate for processing of your application
for State approval for development on your property at Lot 416 of "River View Acres"
at Calabash, Brunswick County.
Processing will begin with an onsite inspection of your property within the next
two weeks. Additional information may be required as a result of this investigation
and further review of your proposal by other state and federal agencies. Additional
information may also be required by the Division of Environmental Management (DEM) to
determine if a 401 Water Quality Certification is required or a Stormwater Plan.
NCGS 113A-119(b) requires that Notice of an application be posted at the location
of the proposed development. Enclosed you will find a "Notice of Permit Filing"
postcard which must be posted at the property of your proposed development. You
should post this notice a conspicuous point along your property where it can be
observed from a public road. Some examples woul be: nailing the notice card to a
telephone pole or tree along the road right-of-way fronting your property, or at a
point along the road right-of-way where a private road would lead one into your
property. Failure to post this notice could result in an incomplete application.
An onsite inspection will be made and if additional information is required,
you will be contacted by the appropriate state or federal agency. If you have any
questions, contact me.

Dear Mr. Parker:

WATER QUALITY SECTION
OPERATIONS BRANCH
Reference the application of Mr. James L. High, Mr. Jerry High
and Ms. Ella High for a Department of the Army permit to construct
a bulkhead, backfill a boat ramp, construct docks and piers and
install mooring piles on the Calabash River, Calabash, Brunswick
County, North Carolina.
The Federal agencies have completed review of the proposal as
presented by the application and your field investigation report.
We recommend that the following conditions be included in the
State authorization:
a. The 20 linear feet of bulkhead will be constructed across
the waterward end of the existing boat ramp as shown on permit
plans.
b. All backfill materials will be obtained from an upland
source and confined landward of the permitted bulkhead.
c. The fill material will be clean and free of any pollutants
except in trace quantities. Metal products, organic materials, or
unsightly debris will not be used.
d. No attempt will be made by the permittee to prevent the
full and free use by the public of all navigable waters at or
-2-
I.
adjacent to the authorized work. Use of the permitted activity
must not interfere with the public"s right to free navigation on
all navigable waters of the United States.
e. If the display of lights and signals on the authorized
structure is not otherwise provided for by law, such lights and
signals as may be prescribed by the U.S. Coast Guard will be
installed and maintained by and at the expense of the permittee.
f. It is possible that the authorized structure may be
damaged by wavewash from passing vessels. The issuance of this
permit does not relieve the permittee from taking all proper steps
to ensure the integrity of the permitted structure and the safety
of moored boats from damage by wavewash. The permittee will not
hold the United States liable for any such damage.
g. The permittee will maintain the authorized work in good
condition and in conformance with the terms and conditions of this
permit. The permittee is not relieved of this requirement if he
abandons the permitted activity without transferring it to a third
party.
h. The activity will be conducted in such a manner as to
prevent a significant increase in turbidity outside the area of
construction or construction-related discharge. Increases such
that the turbidity in the waterbody is 50 NTU-s or less are not
considered significant.
i. This permit does not convey any property rights, either in
real estate or material, or any exclusive privileges; and it does
not authorize any injury to property or invasion of rights, or any
infringement of Federal, State or local laws or regulations.
Questions or comments may be addressed to Mr. Ernest Jahnke,

Enclosed is the application of Mr. Jerry High and Ms. Ella
High for a Department of the Army permit and a State Water Quality
Certification to construct and backfill a bulkhead, fill a boat
ramp, construct docks and piers, and install mooring piles on the
Calabash River, Calabash, Brunswick County, North Carolina. Your
receipt of this letter verifies your acceptance of a valid request
for certification in accordance with Section 325.2(b)(ii) of our
administrative regulations.
We are considering authorization of the proposed activity
pursuant to.Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, and we have
determined that a water quality certification may be required
under the provisions of Section 401 of the same law. A Department
of the Army permit will not be granted until the certification has
been obtained or waived.
In accordance with our administrative regulations, 60 days
after receipt of a request for certification is considered a
reasonable time for State action. Therefore, if your office has
not acted on the request by August 5, 1986, the District Engineer
will deem that waiver has occurred.
Questions or comments may be addressed to Mr. Ernest Jahnke,

The Department of Natural Resources and Community Development hereby acknowledges
receipt of your major development application to construct a 285' long by 6' wide
floating dock with 20 open water slips east of your fishhouse located on lot 416
adjacent to the north side of the Calabash River, Brunswick County. Also proposed
is a 12' bulkhead, a 200 s.f. covered deck, and a 300 s.f. open deck. We have been
,coordinanting our initial permit review with the Army Corps of Engineers and this
office will not be able to complete the processing of your application until the
following items are clarified or resubmitted:
1. Will this project be run as a full service marina with other associated
commercial marina services? If so, what other services are anticipated
(i.e., haul-out, painting, maintenance/repair, dry storage, etc.)?
2. Will these slips be rented or sold?
3. After the ramp is bulkheaded and backfilled what are your planned uses
for lot #16? Will there be impervious surfaces (roofs or asphalt)?
4. The deed which was submitted with this application shows James L. High
as record owner of lot #16, Block 3, Riverview Acres. Is he also an
applicant or is there another deed of one-half interest?
5. Your submitted deed also notes deed restrictions. Please submit
copies of these restrictions.

6. It appears that property owners between your lot #16 and Ruel Wilson's lot
will need to be also notified of your proposal since they too may border
the mean high water mark (MHW) and/or low coastal marshland. If these lots
do border the MHW mark then they are considered adjacent riparian land-
owners since your proposal lies waterward of them. Are there other
property owners which are riparian? If so have you notified them?
7. With the State application only there is a $100.00 application fee
payable to the Department of Natural Resources and Community Development
(DNRCD).
The other information you submitted is adequate; however, this office will not
be able to complete its processing until the above items are resubmitted. Should
you have any questions or need assistance, please advise.

WATER QUALITY SECTION
OPERATIONS BRANCH
On February 6, 1986, we renewed general permit No. SAWC080-N-
000-0291 (enclosed), which provides Federal authorization for
construction activities that receive authorization from the State
of North Carolina.
A review of your application, completed on June 4, 1986, for a
Department of the Army permit to construct and backfill a
bulkhead, fill a boat ramp, construct docks and piers, and install
mooring piles on the Calabash River, Calabash, Brunswick 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 Division 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.
Your application, pursuant to Section 10 of the River and
Harbor Act and Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, has been
assigned No. SAWC086-N-010-0348 and will be coordinated by
Mr. Ernest Jahnke. He is available to address questions or
