9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project site is located at 526 East Moore Street, adjacent to the Cape Fear River, within the City
of Southport, in Brunswick County. The property is a parcel of land measuring approximately 300
feet in width by approximately 490 feet in depth from East Moore Street. The property is located on
the south side of East Moore Street and is bordered by Bonnet's Creek to the east and residential
development to the west. The property consists primarily of regularly flooded marsh vegetated with
Smooth Cordgrass (Spartina alterniflora). The marsh area is broken up by smaller areas of
I highground, which appear to be remnant spoil piles from historic dredging of Bonnet's Creek. The
spoil piles form a rough line through the property from East Moore Street to the River. The spoil
piles contain both mixed high marsh and upland vegetation consisting of Sea Ox-eye (Borrichia
frutescens), Salt Meadow Hay (Spartina patens), Live Oak (Quercus virginiana), Red Cedar
(Juniperus virginiana) and Southern Wax-myrtle (Myrica cerifera). The project site is not under the
ownership of the applicant, however the applicant has been granted an easement across the eastern
most sixty feet of the property for the purpose of constructing a dock and boat slips.
The waters of Bonnet's Creek and the Cape Fear River in this location are classified as "SC" by the
North Carolina Division of Water Quality. The area is not designated as a Primary Nursery Area by
the North Carolina Division of Marine Fisheries and is Closed to the harvest of shellfish.
PROPOSED PROJECT
The applicant is proposing to construct an elevated pier and walkway across the property to the waters
Cape Fear River, where the applicant would construct a ten-slip community docking facility. The
structure would begin at East Moore Street at the first spoil pile. The structure would begin as two
elevated walkways, measuring six feet in width, spanning the marsh area between the first three spoil
piles. These two structures would measure 120 feet and 180 feet in length. An elevated pier
structure would begin at the third spoil pile, approximately 10 feet landward of the MHW line and
approximately 40 feet landward of the waterward edge of coastal wetlands. From the outer edge of
coastal wetlands, the structure would extend approximately 200 feet into the open waters of the Cape
Fear River. The last five feet of the access pier would widen to eight feet to create a small platform
area. Extending off the main pier structure, the applicant is proposing to construct six fixed finger
piers. The landward most set of finger piers would be approximately 120 waterward of the outer
edge of coastal wetlands. Each finger pier would measure 4 feet in width by 15 feet in length. Ten
I boat lifts, each measuring 13 feet by 13 feet, would be constructed within the slips created by the
finger piers. Water depths in the area of the ten slips would range from -4 feet to -10 feet at
MLW. The applicant states that the pier would provide nine docking spaces for the residents of
Bonnet's Landing and one docking space for the owner of the property.
Bonnet's Landing is a nine- lot subdivision located directly across E. Moore Street from the project
site. This subdivision was permitted on December 17, 2004 (CAMA Major Permit No. 171-04)
under the Express Permit Review Program. Development of the subdivision is currently underway.
Bonnet's Landing Property Owner's Association

10. XNTICIPATED IMPACTS
The proposed access pier and walkway would result in the shading of approximately 1,680 sq. ft. of
coastal wetlands. The proposed docking facility would incorporate approximately 4,900 sq. ft. of
estuarine waters and public trust area. The structure would extend approximately 200 feet into a
«•aterbody that measures approximately 2,300 feet across. The structure would terminate
approximately 720 feet from the Federal Channel Setback and would not exceed the established pier
length along this shoreline.
Submitted by: Jim Gregson Date: 03/17/06 Office: Wilmington
Bonnet's Landing Community Dock
The proposed dock on Moore St. in Southport will serve as
an amenity for the community located directly across the street
called Bonnet's Landing. This dock will be owned and maintained
by the Bonnet's Landing POA (property owners association) and
not for public use. A permanent easement has been granted by the
property owners to the POA for construction, use, and
maintenance of the dock. The dock will contain 10 slips with boat
lifts. The current property owners will be granted the right to use 1
boatslip while each of the property owners in Bonnet's Landing (a
9 lot subdivision) will each have a boatslip. The dock will be
constructed in 3 sections, as depicted on the drawings, as it follows
a series of small spoil islands.
