9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The project site is located at 104 Inlet Court, adjacent to the AIWW, in Hampstead, Pender County.
To find the project site, travel north (from Wilmington) on US Highway 17 to Country Club Road, in
Hampstead. Turn right onto Country Club Road and travel approximately 1.0 miles before bearing
right onto Kings Landing Road. Continue traveling along Kings Landing Road for approximately 1.0
miles, and turn left onto Hideaway Shores Road. Take the next right onto Scotch Bonnett Way and
then an immediate left onto Inlet Court. The subject property will be located on the righthand side
of the road at house number 104.
Existing man-made features include a single family residential dwelling and a private docking
facility. High ground vegetation consists of lawn grass and ornamental shrubs. The high ground
portion is elevated approximately 15'-20' above the normal high water (NHW) level. The shoreline
(+/- 125 linear feet) is natural with no man-made stabilization. Vegetation includes mixed scrub
and Coastal Wetland species including: Smooth Cord Grass (Spartina alternoora), Sea Lavender
(Limonium. spp.), Glasswort (Salicornia spp), Spike Grass (Distichlisspicata) and Salt Meadow Grass
( artina patens). Residential properties border the site to the north, south and west and the AIWW
border the property to the east.
The existing pier and docking facility, authorized in 2016 under CAMA General Permit No. 67980, is
located along the eastern portion of the property and extends approximately 420' into a water body.
A 23' x 26' partially covered gazebo is located at the terminal end of the fixed access pier. On either
side of the existing platform sits two, 12' x 12' boat lifts. The existing docking facility is located just
inshore of the adjacent docking facility to the south, within Y4 of the width of the water body.
It should be noted the applicant was issued a Notice of Violation (NOV18-20D) on July 9,
2018, for unauthorized development associated with CAMA General Permit No. 67980.
Specifically, the property owner constructed a platform measuring approximately 23'x 26'
(598 sq. ft.), when he was only authorized to construct a 14'x 23' platform (322 sq. ft.). The
development in question violated both the General Permit conditions, and 15A NCAC
07H .1205(f) which states: "The maximum size of any individual component of the docldng
facility authorized by this General Permit shall not exceed 400 square feet".
The restoration plan for NOV 18-20D required the applicant to revise the current CAMA
Major development permit application which was submitted on June 8, 2018. The revisions
were to include the addition of a 6' x 32' section of floating dock, as well as the existing (and
unauthorized) 23' x 26' partially covered platform. Following revision, the applicant was to
submit the associated forms and site plan to DCM for review and circulation as part of THIS
CAMA Major permit process. Pending approval of the revisions (from the respective agencies
as well as DCM), a decision would be made regarding the appropriate restoration.

The waters of Topsail Sound (adjacent to the project site) are classified as SA by the North Carolina
Division of Water Resources. They ARE NOT designated as a Primary Nursery Area (PNA) by the
North Carolina Division of Marine Fisheries, and they are OPEN to the harvest of shellfish. Based on
visual observations made by DCM staff during the April 2018 site visit, there appears to be NO
Submerged Aquatic Vegetation (SAV) in the surrounding area. Water depths in the vicinity of the
existing facility range from -3' to -5', relative to normal low water (NLW).
PROPOSED PROJECT:
The applicant proposes to expand an existing docking facility by installing a new 6'x 32' section of
floating dock, just inshore of the southernmost boat lift, and gain approval for the existing 23'x 26'
partially covered platform. The proposed floating dock would run parallel to the existing pier and
would be accessed from the existing platform. The floating dock would rest approximately 4' from
the existing walkway, eliminating any potential dockage between the floating and the pier. In total,
the proposed floating dock, when combined with the existing platform, would shade approximately
790 sq. ft. of shallow bottom habitat area. Water depths in the vicinity of the proposed structure
range from -3' to -4' (at normal low water).
10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS:
The proposed structures (existing and proposed) would incorporate approximately 790 sq. ft of
Estuarine Waters and Pubic Trust Area. The floating dock would be located inshore of the existing
platform and boatlifts, and would remain consistent with the Y4 width rule and established pier -
head line. Minor increases in turbidity should be expected during construction. In addition, the
proposed project would not encroach into the Federal Channel setback

Proiect Narrative
Michael Williams would like to add a 6ft x 32ft floating dock to the south side of the existing
dock just landward of the existing gazebo at 104 Inlet Court Hampstead, NC. This will require
the setting of approximately two 8" pilings and a gangway to the floating dock.
