FIELD INVESTIGATION REPORT - T. MURRAY WILLIAMS
PAGE #2
9. NARRATIVE DESCRIPTION: The project site is located next to
Coral Bay Marina, just south of Highway 70, in Morehead
City, on the west branch of Peletier Creek, Carteret County.
There are some 40,252 sq. ft. in this residential lot that
has an onsite address of 106 Riverside Avenue. The
applicant, Mr. Murray Williams, recently acquired the
property which includes a two bedroom single-story house.
The house is currently rented and a boat docking facility is
needed for the house and the applicant's private use. It is
acknowledged that Mr. Williams is part owner and operator of
the adjacent Coral Bay Marina, however, his current request
is for private residential use and includes the construction
of 4 non-commercial boat slips.
The proposed project plans include the construction of a
wooden bulkhead, approximately 197' long, which includes the
entire shoreline property. Once the shoreline is cleared of
riprap rubble and debris, the bulkhead will be installed at
the MHW shoreline and landward of all salt marsh cordgrass
which occurs near the southern end of the property. A 6'
wide parallel pier, approximately 172' long, is scheduled
for construction. The plans show that the pier will
terminate 22' from the southern property line adjoining Mr.
Richard Griffis' property. It is also in this same area
that a 5' to 10' wide fringe of salt marsh cordgrass
occupies the intertidal shoreline. On the north end of the
shoreline, the proposed pier will terminate 3' from the
Coral Bay property. Three (3) finger piers will extend 16'
waterward of the parallel pier, and a set of 5 mooring piles
will be installed at another 24' beyond the finger piers.
The maximum extent of the piers and mooring piles is
calculated at 461, which is less than 1/3 the width of the
creek in water depths that average 32' to 4' deep on mean
low tide. The offshore extent of the pier land mooring
piles appears to be consistent with those other private pier
structures along the creek.
10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS: Processing of a Major CAMA Permit for
the proposed docking facility was made necessary because the
applicant was unable to obtain signed statements of "no
objection" from Mr. Richard Griffis, the adjacent riparian
property owner on the south side of the project. Except for
that technicality, the project appears to be consistent with
the general permit conditions found in 7H .1200 for the
construction of private dock and pier facilities.
