Dear Mayor Fulford:
This letter is in response to your request
Area Manaagement Act and the State Dredge
backfill a bulkhead on Taylors Creek to
construction of a bathhouse in Beaufort,
application under a joint State/Federal review,
by cooperating agencies, is now complete.
David W. Owens
Director
for a permit under the Coastal
end Fill Law to construct and
provide highground for the
N. C. Processing of your
including onsite investigation
Based on this review, the Division of Coastal Management has made the
following findings:
1) Construction and backfilling of the bulkhead will result in the loss
of 638 square feet of shallow water habitat;
2)- The proposed bathhouse is not a water dependent structure;
3) An objection to the proposed activity was filed by an adjacent
riparian landowner based on navigation impacts;
4) The area to be filled has a history of being navigated by small
boats from larger craft moored in Beaufort Harbor; and,
5) The project is inconsistent with the following partial listing of
State Guidelines for Areas of Environmental Concern:
(a) 15 NCAC 7H.0206(c) Management Objectives (for estuarine
waters). This rule requires the Division to give the highest
priority to the conservation and management of the important
features of estuarine waters so as to safeguard and perpetuate

their biological, social, aesthetic and economic values; to
coordinate and establish a management system capable of
conserving and utilizing estuarine waters so as to maximize
their benefits to man and the estuarine system;
(b) 15 NCAC 7H.0206(d) Use Standards (for estuarine waters). This
rule states in part that priority of use shall be given to
those types of development activities that require water access
and use which cannot function elsewhere;
(c) 15 NCAC- 7H.0207(c) Management Objective (for public trust
areas). This regulation requires protection of public rights
for navigation and recreation, and preservation and management
of the areas so as to safeguard and perpetuate their
biological, economic and aesthetic value;
(d) 15 NCAC 7H.0208(a)(1) General use standards. Uses which are
not water dependent will not be permitted in coastal wetlands,
estuarine waters and public trust waters; and,
(e) 15 NCAC 7H.0208(a)(2)(H). Development shall not impede
navigation or create undue interference with access to, or use
of, public trust or estuarine waters.
Given the foregoing findings, it is necessary that your request for
permits under the Coastal Area Management Act and the State Dredge and Fill
Law be denied. This denial is made under N.C.G.S. 113A-229(e), which
provides for. permit denial upon finding a significant adverse impact on
estuarine resources, G.S. 113A-120(2), which requires CAMA permit denial when
the project is found to be inconsistent with the State Dredge and Fill Law,
and G. S. 113A-120(8), which requires denial of projects inconsistent with the
State Guidelines for Areas of Environmental Concern.
If you wish to appeal this denial, you are entitled to a quasi-judicial
hearing to challenge the factual findings or legal conclusions regarding this
denial.- A hearing is similar to a trial, involving appearing before a hearing
officer who listens to the evidence and arguments of both parties and
then makes a recommendation to the Coastal Resources Commission. A decision
by the Commission, adverse to you, may be, appealed in the courts. Your
request for such a hearing must be in the form of a written petition,
complying with the requirements of Chapter 150B of the General Statutes of
North Carolina, and must be filed with the :Office of Administrative Hearings,
P. 0. Drawer 11666, Raleigh, N. C. 27604. The request for a hearing must be
submitted to the Office of Administrative Hearings within twenty days of your
receipt of this letter. A copy of this petition should be filed with this
office. Enclosed, please find a petition which may be used for your hearing
request.
If you request a hearing, you have a choice of hearing officers, either a
hearing officer of the Office of Administrative Hearings, or a hearing officer

selected by the CRC (usually a member of the CRC). Unless you waive your
right to a hearing before the Office of Administrative Hearings, the hearing
will be conducted by a hearing officer of that agency. If you prefer to have
your hearing before a hearing officer of the CRC, you must sign the "Waiver"
contained in the enclosed petition form.
Also, you should be advised that as long as this State permit denial
stands, your project must be deemed inconsistent with the N. C. Coastal
Management. program, thereby precluding issuance of Federal permits for this
project. The Federal Coastal Zone Management Act of 1972 (CZMA) gives the
right to appeal this finding to the U. S. Secretary of Commerce, within 30
days of receipt of this letter. Your appeal must be based on the grounds that
the proposed activity is (1) consistent with the objectives or purposes of the
CZMA, (2) is necessary in the interest of national security, and thus, may be
federally approved.
If you have any questions concerning the appeal procedure, please contact
Mr. Ralph Cantral, Assistant Director at 919/733-2293, P. 0. Box 27687,

(ICE r,"siltai8i^ r nt.a
Reference the application of the Town of Beaufort for a
Department of the Army permit to construct and backfill a bulkhead
on Taylors Creek to provide area for construction of a boaters'
bathhouse in Beaufort, Carteret 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 bulkhead will be positioned in strict accordance with
the permit drawings.
b. All backfill materials will be obtained from an upland
source and confined landward of the permitted bulkhead.
c. Vegetated wetlands will not be filled.
d. 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.
e. This permit does not authorize the interference with any
existing or proposed Federal project, and the permittee will not
be entitled to compensation for damage or injury to the authorized
-2-
structure or work which may be caused from existing or future
operations undertaken by the United States in the public interest.
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. If the permittee discovers any previously unknown historic
or archeological remains while accomplishing the authorized work,
he will immediately notify the Wilmington District Engineer who
will initiate the required State/Federal coordination.

Proj6ct summary Apolicants propose to bulkhead and baQkfill on area in
Taylor's Creek at the Louth enci nfstlT-1,) Star; ;l; in the Town of
_-
Beaufort in Carteret County. The nurnose is t•g--cQna-tx-uct--a bath-hn» ,e?
i; in this location to serve the dock patrons
9. Narrative description
This request from the. applicant is the second in the reference _I
to secure additional bathing and toilet facilities for the
dock patrons. The first proposal was for a Piling supported
wood framed structure protruding out perpendicular to the
Town bulkhead on the extreme west end of the Boardwalk. This 4
proposal was permitted on a variance request by order of the
Coastal Resources Commission and was issued permit 3-86 on
January 8, 1985.
One of the conditions of that permit required an easement be
approved by the Council of State through the.Department of
Administration's State Property office prior to construction.
This was never granted. The State Property office did
indicate_ in denying this permission that they would be
willing to grant an easement to fill instead a small area
of open water in the area where the bath house is being
proposed in this application.
In this area, the existing Town bulkhead returns into the
land and through a series of turns at right angles to this
return wall, connects to the Geer bulkhead on the west.
The area proposed to be filled is strewn with various
concrete and stone objects, along with the existing Town
storm sewer which pipes storm runoff from Turner Street into
Taylors Creek. Minor numbers of oyster sets exist on these
objects.
The applicants are proposing to construct a 232' concrete
tongue and groove bulkhead with concrete cap continuing the -
existing Town alignment. This bulkhead-will turn and return
232' into the high ground along the Town property line where
it borders the Sonny Geer property on the west. The
enclosed area will be backfilled with sand and tie backs placed
as needed. On this area a bath house approximately 28' x 20'
will be constructed out of wood and on the produced grade by
the bulkhead and backfill on a concrete slab.
10. Anticipated Impacts
This project will involve the filling of.638 sq. ft. of shallow
salt water estuarine area with approximately 95 cu. yds of
fill material. The area will be covered by concrete and the
bath house and walkways will consume 7252 sq. ft. Adjacent
waters are classified as SC according to the Division of
Environmental Management and closed to shell fishing according
the the Division of Health Services.

November 24, 1986
Mr. Charles Jones _
Office of Coastal Management U U LJ
3411 Arendell Street
Morehead City, NC 28557
Mr. Jones:
Accompanying is the Town of Beaufort's application to
bulkhead and fill an area for the purpose of building bathroom
facilities for the Town of Beaufor.t's visiting boaters. You and
I have had several discussions regarding this area which is
illustrated on the accompanying drawing. I believe that you are
also familiar with the history of the Town's efforts to obtain
permission to build this badly needed facility. On January 16,
1985, we first contacted you regarding this request. Following
that, we submitted an application to build this facility over the
water of one of the Town's boat slips. After several months of
waiting, this request was denied. The Town then went before the
Coastal Resources Commission and was granted unanimous approval
for permission to build this facility over the water. At that
point, the Town was told by the State Property Office that they
would-not permit the facility over the water. However, the State-
Property Office sent a representative to Beaufort 'to help us
locate a suitable place for this fAcility, since they
acknowledged the great need for.it'. After a long period of
searching, the State Property Office came to the conclusion that
the only suitable location that was not over the water was the
exact location that we are now requesting your permission to
bulkhead and fill for this purpose. The State Property Office
has agreed to give us its permission to do so and has agreed to
deed the newly created property to the Town.
It is significant to note that the permitting authorities
granted permission to the Town to build its present bulkhead
directly adjacent to this area and to fill in the area behind it
which was very much larger than this area in question. This
bulkhead is about 840 feet long. The bult?hend -e are requesting
will be ?2 fePr 4 inches long. The thinking behind this granted
permission was obviously that this 840 feet bulkhead and filled
in area could accomplish much more good than any harm that could
have resulted from permitting it. Time has proven this thinking
,to be correct. The-bulkhead that we are now requesting is
isimply a 22 feet 4 inches extension of this 840 feet bulkhead and
;its purpose is the same as that of the longer bulkhead. Although
time has not had a chance to prove this thinking•to be correct, an
i%investigation of the need for this facility does prove it to be
z

already correct. (Please 'see at excerpts from the Town's
successful variance request on its proposal to build showers over
the water. These facts supporting the need for such a facility
are even more significant now, one 'year later, than they' were then.)
It is also significant to note the condition of the bottom
that the Town is requesting to cover. A large concrete storm
drain covers much of this bottom. The large concrete slabs that
protect this culvert cover even more of the bottom. Additionally,
there is a sewer service pipe that also covers part of this area
and its concrete protection covers even more of this area. There
will never be any marsh grass growing in these areas, nor any
bottom life burrowing into these concrete areas.. There is no
marsh grass at all in this entire area (the closest marsh grass
is 1040 feet away). There is also no bottom life burrowing into
the bottom in this area (much of this area that is not covered by
pipes and concrete is covered by other broken pieces of concrete).
Also, there is a marine fueling station immediately adjacent to
this area. Biologically speaking, this is practically a dead
area and destined to remain so.
It is also significant that the Town has been requesting
permission to build this badly needed facility for 22 months. Of
additional significance is the fact that the construction of the
Town's badly needed public restrooms for land visitors is being
held up until this requested facility is permitted and built.
(Please see attached excerpts from the Town's successful variance
request).
The Town would like to request your assistance in expediting
the processing of this request, particularly since the request is-
of such long standing and the need is so great. Accordingly,
please notify me at your earliest convenience of anything
additional that you require in thi's regard.

Mr. Paul:
`.'
Regarding your letter of 12-22-86 concerning the Town of Beaufort's
application of 12-9-86, please note the following:
1. You requested that blank E of section IV be filled in. This
blank requests the type of equipment to be used to entrap and control
erosion of excavated material. As indicated in the application there
will be no material excavated. .Also as indicated in the application,
erosion will be controlled by a tongue and groove concrete bulkhead.
No equipment will be used to control erosion. If the question is what
equipment will be used to install the concrete bulkhead, the answer
i?; a crane to lower the concrete sheets into --place and a pressure water
hose to.help seat them.
Regarding the-information requested in section VIII, there are no
U.S. Army Corps of engineer or State permits for work in project area.
That is why none were listed on the application. There is a State permit
for work in an area adjacent to project area. This is #3-86 which is
the same permit referred to in my letter to Charles Jones dated November
24,1986 and which letter accompanied the application as a part of that
application. In that letter this State permit and other pertinent things
were described. On that point, you returned to me all of the material
that we had submitted as parts of the application except this letter.
This letter is most significant and pertinent to the proposed project
and to the application. In fact, without its' contents being considered
as part of this application, the reviewing agencies will be deprived
of important, significant data upon which to base their comments. Accordingly,
since apparently that letter has been separated from the rest of the
application we now formally request that a copy of that letter be made
an integral part of the application and submitted as such to each of
the reviewing agencies or individuals. If this request will not be
granted, we request your written notification to us by return mail stating
that and the reasons thereof. (I have attached a copy of that letter
in case it is not in the file).
The information on blank C of section X is as follows: The adjacent
landowner on the west is P.H. Geer. The copy of the application was
mailed to him on December 10,1986 and received by him on December 12,1986

The adjacent landowner on the east is the Town of Beaufort. However,
this area of the Town's property which extends continuously over 1,000
feet along the shoreline from this project towards the east is leased
to Beaufort Docks. Although Beaufort Docks is operating under the author-
ity of the Town of Beaufort, notice has also been served on Beaufort
Docks on 12-26-86 as attested by the attached copies of U.S. Post Office
receipts.
2. a. A location map was supplied with the oYiginal application.
and returned to me by you. This same location map has been acceptea
by CAMA on several past approved applications. It is now returned again
to you. Should there be anything wrong with this map alease let me know.
b. Elevations of adjacent property and the existing water depths
are attached.
c. A one quarter inch border is supplied.
d. An arrow indicating the direction of north is supplied. ?
e. A cross section of the proposed bulkhead is supplied.
3. The adjacent landowner on the west was notified on December 10th.
The adjacent landowner on the east was notified on December 26th (see
explanation in paragraph 3 of section 1 of this letter.
4. We had assumed that this would be handled as a modification of
permit #3-86 which dealt with the same subject. However, an additional
check for $100.00 is now supplied.
As requested in the letter to Mr. Charles Jones that accompanied
the application received by your office on December 12th, the Town of
Beaufort would like to again request your assistance in expediting
the processing of this request, particularly since the request is of
such long standing and the need is so great. Accordingly, please notify

Pususant to our telephone conversation today, accompanying is a copy
of the certified mail notice of our application to Mr.Robert H. Stephens.
We are happy to comply with that request even though it seems strange to
consider Mr. Stephens the adjacent property owner on the east since there
is well over l,ooo feet of property between the project.site and his
property. Within this long space is the entire expanse of the Beaufort
Town Docks and the Inlet Inn Hotel.
-As pointed out before, it has been two years since we first applied
for permission for these showers. Additionally it has been over a month
since we first applied for this present permit. Since the matter is of
such long standing we would appreciate anything you and your office could
do to e;-pedite processing of this application. Accordingly, please let me
know as soon possible if you require anything else.

Dear Mr. Mills:
Enclosed is the application of the Town of Beaufort for a
Department of the Army permit and a State Water Quality
Certification to construct and backfill a bulkhead on Taylors
Creek to provide area for construction of a boaters' bathhouse in
Beaufort, Carteret 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 March 23, 1987, the District Engineer
will deem that waiver has occurred.
Questions or comments may be addressed to Mr. David Baker,
telephone [phone].

November 24, 1986;1
Mr. Charles Jones
Office of Coastal Management ;U lJ L?
3411 Arendell Street
Morehead City, NC 28557
Mr. Jones:
Accompanying is the Town of Beaufort's application to
bulkhead and fill an area for the purpose of building bathroom
facilities for the Town of Beaufort's visiting boaters. You and
I have had several discussions regarding this area which is
illustrated on the accompanying drawing. I believe that you are
also familiar with the history of the Town's efforts to obtain
permission to build this badly needed facility. On January 16,
1985,, we first contacted you regarding this request. Following
that, we submitted an application to build this facility over the
water of one of the Town's boat slips. After several months of
waiting, this request was denied. The Town then went before the
Coastal Resources Commission and was granted unanimous approval
for permission to build this facility over the water. At that
point, the Town was told by the State Property Office that they
would-not permit the facility over the water. However, the State
Property Office sent a representative to Beaufort to help us
locate a suitable place for this facility, since they
acknowledged the great need for it. After a long period of
searching, the State Property Office came to the conclusion that
the only suitable location that was not over the water was the
exact location that we are now requesting your permission to
bulkhead and fill for this purpose. The State Property Office
has agreed to give us its permission to do so and has agreed to
deed the newly created property to the Town.
It is significant to note that the permitting authorities
granted permission to the Town to build its present bulkhead
directly adjacent to this area and to fill in the area behind it
which was very much larger than this area in question. This
bulkhead is about 840 feet long. The bulkhead we are requesting
will be 22 feet 4 inches long. The thinking behind this granted
permission was obviously that this 840 feet bulkhead and filled
in area could accomplish much more good than any harm that could
have resulted from permitting it. Time..has proven this thinking
,to be correct. The bulkhead that we are now requesting is
isimply a 22 feet 4 inches extension of this 840 feet bulkhead and
!its purpose is the same as that of the longer bulkhead. Although
time has not had a chance to prove this thinking to be correct, an
(investigation of the need for this facility does prove it to be
r

already correct. (Please see attached excerpts from the Town's
successful variance request on its proposal to build showers over
.t.tie water. These facts supporting the need. for. such. a -facil.i.ty_
are even more significant now, one year later, than they were then.)
It is also significant to note the condition of the bottom
that the Town is requesting to cover. A large concrete storm
drain covers much of this bottom. The large concrete slabs that
protect this culvert cover even more of the bottom. Additionally,
there is a sewer service pipe that also covers part of this area
and its concrete protection covers even more of this area. There
will never be any marsh grass growing in these areas, nor any-
bottom life burrowing into these concrete areas. There is no
marsh grass at all in this entire area.(the closest marsh grass
is 1040 feet away). There is also no bottom life burrowing into
the bottom in this area (much of this area that is not covered by
pipes and concrete is covered by other broken pieces of concrete).
Also, there is a marine fueling station immediately adjacent to
this area. Biologically speaking, this is practically a dead
area and destined to remain so.
. It is also significant that the Town has been requesting
permission to build this badly needed facility for 22 months. Of
additional significance is the fact that the construction of the
Town's badly needed public restrooms for land visitors is being
held up until this requested facility is permitted and built.
(Please see attached' excerpts from the Town's successful variance
request).
The Town would like to request yourassistance in expediting
the processing of this request, particularly since the request is
of such long standing and the need is so great. Accordingly,
please notify me at your earliest convenience of anything
additional. that you require in thi's regard.
Sincerely,
. ) 4t

Mr. Paul:
- ot-
Regarding your letter of 12-22-86 concerning the Town of Beaufort's
application of 12-9-86, please note the following:
,i
I
r
I
i
1. You requested that blank E of section IV be filled in. This
blank requests the type of equipment to be used to entrap and control
erosion of excavated material. As indicated in the application there
will be no material excavated. Also as indicated in the application,
erosion will be controlled by a tongue and groove concrete bulkhead.
No-equipment will be used to control erosion. If the question is what
equipment will be used to install the concrete bulkhead, the answer
i"3 a crane to lower the concrete sheets into -place and a pressure water
hose to help seat them.
Regarding the information requested in section VIII, there are no
U.S. Army Corps of engineer or State permits for work in project area.
That is why none were listed on the application. There is a State permit
for work in an area adjacent to project area. This is #3-86 which is
the same permit referred to in my letter to Charles Jones dated November
24,1986 and which letter accompanied the application as a part of that
application. In that letter this State permit and other pertinent things
were described. On that point,•you returned to me all of the material
that we had submitted as parts of the application except this letter.
This letter is most significant and pertinent to the proposed project
and to the application. In fact, without its' contents being considered
as part of this application, the reviewing agencies will be deprived
of important, significant data upon which to base their comments. Accordingly,
since apparently that letter has been separated from the rest of the
application we now formally request that a copy of that letter be made
an integral part of the application and submitted as such to each of
the reviewing agencies or individuals. If this request will not be
granted, we request your written notification to us by return mail stating
that and the reasons thereof. (I have attached a copy of that letter

this area of the Town's property which extends continuously over 1,000
feet along the shoreline from this project towards the east is leased
to Beaufort Docks. Although Beaufort Docks is operating under the author-

Pususant to our telephone conversation today, accompanying is a copy
of the certified mail notice of our application to Mr.Robert H. Stephens.
We are happy to comply with that request even though it seems strange to
consider Mr. Stephens.the adjacent property owner on the east since there
is well over l,ooo feet of property between the project site and his
property. Within this long space is the entire expanse of the Beaufort
Town Docks and the Inlet Inn Hotel.
-As pointed out before, it has been two years since we first applied
for permission for these showers. Additionally it has been over a month,
since we first applied for this present permit. Since the matter is of
such long standing we would appreciate anything you and your office could
do to expedite processing of this application. Accordingly, please let me

s

9. Narrative description
This request from the. applicant is the second in the reference
to secure additional bathing and toilet facilities for the
dock patrons. The first proposal was for ,a oiling supported
wood framed structure protruding out perpendicular to the
Town bulkhead on the extreme west end of the Boardwalk. This
proposal was permitted on a variance request by order of the
Coastal Resources Commission and was issued permit 3-86 on
January 8, 1985.
One of the conditions of that permit required an easement be
approved by the Council of State through the.Department of
Administration's State Property Office prior to construction.
This was never granted. The State Property Office did
indicate in denying this permission that thev would be
willing to grant an easement to fill instead a small area
of open water in the area where the bath house is being
proposed in this application.
In this area, the existing Town bulkhead returns into the
land and through a series of turns at right angles to this
return wall, connects to the Geer bulkhead on the west.
The area proposed to be filled is strewn with various
concrete and stone objects, along with the existing Town
storm sewer which pipes storm runoff from Turner Street into
Taylors Creek. Minor numbers of oyster sets exist on these
objects.
The applicants are proposing to construct a 232' concrete r
tongue and groove bulkhead with concrete cap continuing the
existing Town alignment. This bulkhead•will turn and return
232' into the high ground along the Town property line where
it borders the Sonny Geer property on the west. The
enclosed area will be backfilled with sand and tie backs placed
as needed. On this area a bath house approximately 28' x 201_
will be constructed out of wood and on the produced grade by
the bulkhead and backfill on a concrete slab.
10. Anticipated Impacts
This project will involve the filling of.638 sq. ft. of shallow
saltwater estuarine area with approximately 95 cu. Ids of
fill material. The area will be covered by concrete and the
bath house and walkways will consume 72515 sq. ft. Adjacent
waters are classified as SC according to the Division of
Environmental Management and closed to shell fishing according
the the Division of Health Services.

November 24, 1986;!
Mr. Charles Jones
Office of Coastal Management U 1.I[?
3411 Arendell Street --
Morehead City, NC 28557
Mr. Jones:
Accompanying is the Town of Beaufort's application to
bulkhead and fill an area for the purpose of building bathroom
facilities for the Town of Beaufort's visiting boaters. You and
I have had several discussions regarding this area which is
illustrated on the accompanying drawing. I believe that you are
also familiar with the history of the Town's efforts to obtain
permission to build this badly needed facility. On January 16,
1985, we first contacted you regarding this request. Following
that, we submitted an application to build this facility over the
water of one of the Town's boat slips. After several months of
waiting, this request was denied. The Town then went before the
Coastal Resources Commission and was granted unanimous approval
for permission to build this facility over the water. At that
point, the Town was told by the State Property Office that they
would-not permit the facility over the water. However, the State
Property Office sent a representative to Beaufort- to help us
locate a suitable place for this futility, since they
acknowledged the great need for it. After a long period of
searching, the State Property Office came to the conclusion that
the only suitable location that was not over the water was the
exact location that we are now requesting your permission to
bulkhead and fill for this purpose. The State Property Office
has agreed to give us its permission to do so and has agreed to
deed the newly created property to the Town.
It is significant to note that the permitting authorities
granted permission to the Town to build its present bulkhead
directly adjacent to this area and to fill in the area behind it
which was very much larger than this area in question. This
bulkhead is about 840 feet long. The bulkhead we are requesting
will be 22 feet 4 inches long. The thinking behind this granted
permission was obviously that this 840 feet bulkhead and filled
in area could accomplish much more good than any harm that could
have resulted from permitting it. Time_has proven this thinking
/to be correct. The bulkhead that we are now requesting is
rsimply a 22 feet 4 inches extension of this 840 feet bulkhead and
its purpose.is the same as that of the longer bulkhead. Although
time has not had a chance to prove this thinking to be correct, an
i t investigation of the need for this facility does prove it to be
i

already correct. (Please see attached excerpts from the Town's
successful variance request on its proposal to build showers over
the water. These facts supporting the need for such a facility
are even more significant now, one year later, than they'were then.)
It is also significant to note the condition of the bottom
than the Town is requesting to cover. A large concrete storm
drain covers much of this bottom. The large concrete slabs that
protect this culvert cover even more of the bottom. Additionally,
there is a sewer service pipe that also covers part of this area
and its concrete protection covers even more of this area. There
will never be any marsh grass growing in these areas, nor any
bottom life burrowing into these concrete areas. There is no
marsh grass at all in this entire area (the closest marsh grass
is 1040 feet away). There is also no bottom life burrowing into
the bottom in this area (much of this area that is not covered by
pipes and concrete is covered by other broken pieces of concrete).
Also, there is a marine fueling station immediately adjacent to
this area. Biologically speaking, this is practically a dead
area and destined to remain so.
It is also significant that the Town has been requesting
permission to build this badly needed facility for 22 months. Of
additional significance is the fact that the construction of the
Town's badly needed public restrooms for land visitors is being
held up until this requested facility is permitted and built.
(Please see attached excerpts from the Town's successful variance
request).
The Town would like to request your assistance in expediting
the processing of this request, particularly since the request is
of such long standing and the need is so great. Accordingly,
please notify me at your earliest eonv'enience of anything
additional that you require in this regard.
Sincerely,
)4 ?? VWV_/

Mr. Nelson Paul

Mr. Paul:

Regarding your letter of 12-22-86 concerning the Town of Beaufort's
application of 12-9-86, please note the following:
1. You requested that blank E of section IV be filled in. This
blank requests the type of equipment to be used to entrap and control
erosion of excavated material. As indicated in the application there
will be no material excavated..Also as indicated in the application,
erosion will be controlled by a tongue and groove concrete bulkhead.
No equipment will be used to control erosion. If the question is what
equipment will be used to install the concrete bulkhead, the answer
is a crane to lower the concrete sheets into -place and a pressure water
hose to.help seat them.
r,
Regarding the information requested in section VIII, there are no
U.S. Army Corps of engineer or State permits for work in project area.
That is why none were listed on the application. There is a State permit
for work in an area adjacent to project area. This is #3-86 which is
the same permit referred to in my letter to Charles Jones dated November
24,1986 and which letter accompanied the application as a part of that
application. In that letter this State permit and other pertinent things
were described. On that point, you returned to me all of the material
that we had submitted as parts of the application except this letter.
This letter is most significant and pertinent to the proposed project
and to the application. In fact, without its' contents being considered
as part of this application, the reviewing agencies will be deprived
of important, significant data upon which to base their comments. Accordingly,
since apparently that letter has been separated from the rest of the
application we now formally request that a copy of that letter be made
an integral part of the application and submitted as such to each of
the reviewing agencies or individuals. If this request will not be
granted, we request your written notification to us by return mail stating
that and the reasons thereof. (I have attached a copy of that letter

Mr. Paul:
r-
Pususant to our telephone conversation today, accompanying is a copy
of the certified mail notice of our application to Mr.Robert H. Stephens.
We are happy to comply with that request even though it seems strange to
consider Mr. Stephens the adjacent property owner on the east since there
is well over l,ooo feet of property between the project site and his
property. Within this long space is the entire expanse of the Beaufort
Town.Docks and the Inlet Inn Hotel.
'As pointed out before, it has been two years since we first applied
for permission for these showers. Additionally it has been over a month
since we first applied for this present permit. Since the matter is of
such long standing we would appreciate anything you and your office could
do to expedite processing of this application. Accordingly; please let me
know as soon possible if you require anything else.
Sincerely,
Haywood Wee s
