SUBJECT: Application for CAMA Permit Dolphin Bay Homeowners Association New Hanover County The Subject application has been reviewed for water quality impacts and the following comments are offered: a) The proposed project does require a 401 Water Quality Certification but meets the requirements of General Certification No. 1273 for the discharge of liquid effluent from upland diked disposal areas. b) The dredging proposed for the new basin presents a very real problem from the standpoint of water quality standards for the protection of existing uses. The loss of 20,000 cubic yards of productive bottom material and the loss of 135,400 square feet of primary nursery area as a result of dredging for the new docks are inconsistent with the Antidegradation Statement of the Water Quality Standards. Since the project would result in a loss of use of this area, we recommend that the permit be denied. BM/kls Dolphin. tnem/D-2 cc: Preston Howard P.O.

The area around the new dock area is to be dredged and a breakwater constructed at the location of the existing docks. ADJACENT WATER BODY: AIWW / Myrtle Grove Sound CLASSIFICATION: SA STATUS: Closed The project has been reviewed to determine impacts to water quality. The following comments have been provided. The project as proposed will result in the loss of 20,700 cu. yds. of productive bottom from 135,400 sq. ft. of primary nursery area as a result of the dredging around the new docks. The dredging of this area would eliminate the existing use of these waters as a primary nursery area and would be inconsistent with the Antidegradation Statement of the Environmental Management Commission's Water Quality Standards, therefore, this office is recommending denial of the 401 certification.

Project Summary Applicant proposes to relocate the Dolphin Bay Community dock 70' landward of its present location; approximately 20,700 cubic yards of bottom are to be dredged around the docking area. Also proposed is some maintenance work to the docks, and the construction of a breakwater svstem. Dolphin Bay Homeowners Association Page Two 9. Project Description: This project is located adjacent to the AIVA4 (Myrtle Grove Sound) just south of Carolina Beach Inlet, at the Dolphin Bay Marina on US 421 in New Hanover County. The 50 acre tract of land is presently a residential community, consisting of individual lots 1/3 to 1/2 acre in size. The average elevation of the tract, according to the applicant is +6-8' MSL. There is an existing pier, approximately 458' long, to a fixed dock; system. There are currently 96 slips along this dock. The dock extends north and south of the pier and a gazebo, with the northern wing angling slightly eastward. This watermost point of the project is 125' from the near edge of the federally maintained channel. The pier and docks were permitted under CAMA minor permit # 81-45 in 1981, by New Hanover County. This permit allowed for a pier, 304' in length, to a perpendicular dock system, 520 in length, consisting of 65 slips. A modification was permitted in 1982 to add 380' of docks. It was stated in the original permit and on the modification that no dredging could take place. There is no documentation explaining the disrepency of 154' between the permitted pier and that actually constructed. The waters of the AIVA4 at this point in Myrtle Grove Sound are classified SA by Division of Environmental Management. The area is designated a primary nursery area by the Division of Marine Fisheries, and is closed to shellfishing. The body of water averages approximately 880' across at the project site, with. narrowest point being approximately 750' across. This area is classified- conservation by New Hanover County. The applicant has proposed to relocate the entire docking system approximately 70' landward of its current landward most point. This would place the docks approximately 248' from the near edge of the channel. A breakwater system is proposed waterward of the docks, and north and south of the docks. This breakwater system would be aligned along the current dock alignment or 178' from the near edge of the federally maintained channel. This would place the most waterward point at 480' across the water (the location of the waterward edge of the present docks). There is new dredging proposed around the docks, for an area 156' x 750' or 117,000 sf, with two access channels on each side, 230' in length by 40' in width, or 18,400 sf. All of the dredging is proposed to -6' MLW. The project as initially proposed was to place the breakwater approximately 50' waterward of the current docks. The docks presently exceed the 1/3 rule by an average of 208'. The original proposal would have placed the breakwater 258' excess of the 1/3 rule (272' is 1/3 of the distance across this body of water). The applicant agreed to amend his proposal to pull the docks landward 70' and place the breakwater in the place of the existing docks. By doing this he will still exceed 1/3 by 208', but by no farther than that of the existing project. Dolphin Bay Homeowners Association Page Three The breakwater will follow the plan shown on the bluelines as type B. This would consist of 3 separate sections. The section on the north side would be 80 feet in length. This section would be positioned east to west at the north end of the docks. The watermost breakwater is proposed running north to south at 880' in length. This is parallel to the docks, and to the east of them. Again on the south side is another 80' section, running east to west. This comprises a total of 1040 linear feet of breakwater system. The breakwater would be approximately l' wide. The structure is to rise to 7' above mean high water. Pilings will be placed 8' apart. Along the front of the pilings 4" x 12" boards will be positioned perpendicular to the pilings. These boards will have 6" spaces between them to allow for water flow, and prevent stagnation and water degradation. The north section of the docks will be pulled back in line with the south side. This entire docking system will then be realigned 70 feet landward of their present location or to the north and south of the present gazebo. This new alignment will position the docks 380' into the body of water. There is maintenance work planned on the dock system. This consists of the replacement of 11 existing or missing foam floats; the replacement of corroded wood or eyebolts and pins in 31 various locations; repair or replacement of 13 hoops on guide piles; replacement of 24 sf of timber decking; the addition of 8 new pilings; and the construction of 3 new finger piers. The final product will not increase the dimensions of the docks. The actual number of slips will be reduced from 96 to 94. The application also calls for dredging approximately 20,700 cubic yards of bottom material from Myrtle Grove Sound. This dredging is to take place around the docks for a width of 156' and a length of 750', or a total of 117,000 square feet. There would be an access channel on either side, each 230' in length and 40' in width. This is a total of 18,400 square feet. All the dredging is proposed to a depth of -6' mlw. The applicant requested proof from the Division of Marine Fisheries that the area is actually serving in the capacity of a primary nursery area. Fritz Rohde of the Division of Marine Fisheries did visit the site, and through his sampling determined that the area is indeed an active primary nursery area. The results are enclosed. There is no marsh vegetation in the area proposed for dredging. The dredging is to be accomplished by the use of hydraulic dredge and piped to the spoil disposal area. A total of 20,700 cubic yards are to be excavated. The spoil is to be placed on the southside of an existing US Army Corps spoil island adjacent to the Carolina Beach Inlet. This area has been approved for use by Barry Holiday, Chief of the Navigation Branch with the US Army Corps of Engineers (letter on file). A dike is to be constructed to contain the fill. The base of the dike is proposed at 8' wide, with a top width of 4'. The structure is proposed to be a minimum of 8' in height. There will be an effluent control structure to allow for settling of suspended solids and return of water through the effluent pipe to the MLW line of the AIWW. The size of the spoil area will be approximately 120,000 sf or 35,555 cubic yards. The intended use of this project is to serve the residential community of Dolphin Bay. Dolphin Bay Homeowners Association Page Four 10. Potential Impacts: There will be a loss of 20,700 cubic yards (or 135,400 s.f.) of productive bottom material from a primary nursery area. There will be an actual area of 1,040 sf encompassed by the breakwater system. There will be no additional public trust waters encompassed by the breakwater due to the fact that the proposed area is currently occupied by the present dock system. The area in which the docks are proposed for relocation is currently behind the docks, and not available for public use.
