Griffin St., Suite 300 Elizabeth City, NC 27909 Mr. Daisey, JAMES H. TROGDON, III SECRETARY The NCDOT Ferry Division is requesting a revision to the CAMA Major Permit #224-87 for the Hatteras — Ocracoke Passenger Ferry. Changes are for the Hatteras Ferry Terminal only. The purpose of the CAMA Permit revision request is twofold, to allow additional room for maneuvering of the passenger ferry while utilizing a single vessel and a temporary dock, and to reflect changes to the electrical service configuration required by the State Construction Office. The changes from the current CAMA Permit include: • Shifting of the temporary floating dock approximately 4 feet eastward, closer to the vehicle ferry ramps • Changing protective line of pilings from the east side of the floating dock to the west side, including additional protective piling on the aft end of the floating dock • Construction of two additional piles on the west side of the floating dock in line with existing piling to further protect the passenger ferry from docked vehicle ferries • Approximately 7.5 foot expansion (5.5 feet east, 2 feet west) of the planned landing pad for the gangway to the floating dock and sidewalk to access the gangway • Construction of 3 raised platforms to raise sewer, water, and hose reels above flood elevation • Addition of concrete northwest of the passenger ferry shelter for a flag pole • Movement of electric panel WP adjacent to the current terminal building • Construction of a raised platform adjacent to panel WP to elevate two new electrical transformers Mailing Address: NC DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION FERRY DIVISION 159 LUCINDA LANE POWELLS POINT. NC 27966 Telephone: (252) 621-6251 Fax: (252) 491-2782 Customer Service: 1-877-368-4968 Website: www.ncdot.gov This revision request does not create any additional impervious surface beyond those included in the current CAMA permit, in fact the design as constructed has decreased the impervious surface by approximately 275 square feet by removing the existing asphalt and replacing with a grassy area northeast of the passenger ferry terminal. The included plan has been revised for clarity and to indicate the items included on the previous permit that have already been constructed Sincerely, Catherine Peele Environmental Program Supervisor
