Project Summary The applicant proposes to construct a pier 152' long to a dock 6 x 32, to serve as access to his Scotchman Store for boaters. 0 Entrepreneurs, Inc. Page 2 9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The project site is located directly east of the Kenan Creek Bridge on US Hwy 74 (also 100 W. Salisbury Street) adjacent to the junction of Kenan Creek and Lee's Cut in Wrightsville Beach, New Hanover County, North Carolina. Presently existing on the site is a Scotchman Store, with a parking area and fuel service. The lot is approximately .35 acres. Approximately 80% of the lot is paved with lawn grass over the remainder. The elevation is approximately 5-6' above mean sea level. Around the perimeter of the property there is a 331' bulkhead. Waterward of this bulkhead is a dense stand of Spartina alterniflora around the entire property, and for a depth of approximately 120' where the pier is proposed. Lee's Cut is approximately 1000' across at this site. It is designated a Primary Nursery Area and closed to the taking of shellfish"by the Division of Marine Fisheries, and classified SB by the Division of Environmental Management. The Lee's Cut area is presently heavily used by boaters. Kenan Creek is approximately 80' across, and is navigable, but only from the Hwy 74 bridge waterward to Lee's Cut, due to a sewage pipe running parallel to the bridge at mean high water level. Thus, the navigable distance is approximately 280' in length. Other. than the applicant, there is one other property owner adjacent to, and with access to this portion of Kenan Creek. Therefore, this 280' stretch of the creek, while navigable, is not widely used. The applicant is the owner of the Scotchman Store, and lessee of the property. We have in the file written permission from the owner for the lessee to construct the proposed pier and dock. The applicant anticipates increased business from boaters who now lack access from water to a convenient store. The proposed pier will be 6' wide and 152' in length; 120' of this will be elevated over Spartina alterniflora, with the remaining 32' over open water. At the terminal end the water is approximately -3' deep at mean low water. A floating dock, 6' x 32' is proposed here, accessed by a 2.5' x 16 ramp from the pier. The dock would service boaters and would allow for temporary docking only. No fuel tanks or fuel service of any kind is proposed with this project. The length of this pier is in keeping with the established pier length of the area, and meets all setbacks, as well as the 1/3 rule. 10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS The proposed pier will shade approximately 720 sf of Spartina alterniflora marsh. The remainder of the pier, with the dock and ramp, will incorporate 424 sf of public trust water. The total impact on coastal resource would be 1144 sf. V y Entrepreneurs, Inc. Page 3 No increase in pollution from boatersis anticipated due to the existing use of the area by boaters, and the temporary state of the docking. An increase in congestion will occur at the mouth of Kenan Creek from boaters entering the dock from the west and north. However, due to the minimal number of boaters using Kenan Creek, this should not be a problem. Nor should visibility present a problem due to the position of the dock away from the narrow portion of the mouth. The applicant voluntarily relocated his dock from its originally proposed location (centralized around the pier) to the east side of the pier. This was done to avoid any navigational difficulties the project may present to boaters on Kenan Creek. Submitted by: Tere Barrett Office: Wilmington Date: November 10, f988 Please type or print.
