9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project is located along the shorelines of Old Sound Creek (Eastern
Channel) at the western end of Ocean Isle Beach. There is an existing rip-rap
revetment to the east of the project site extending along the creek bank. The
revetment approximates the mean high water contour except at the extreme
western end where it tails off below the mean high water contour a significant
distance (15' - 20'). There are existing homes located along the property just
east of the project site. Through intense passive dune building activities the
applicant had until recently brought about the accumulation of sand and
vegetation growth between the project site and the water of the Atlantic Ocean.
The recent hurricane event has washed across the majority of this area removing
much of the accumulated sand. The adjacent water of Old Sound Creek (Eastern
Channel) are classified as SA open and are not designated as a primary nursery
area.
The applicant proposes to install approximately 360' of new rip-rap. This will
be in a (16' wide band and with the toe located from 2' - 5' waterward of the
mean high water contour. Approximately 420 cubic yards of rip-rap will be
used. In order to place the rock he proposes to grade the slope of the bank to
a 4:1 slope and then place filter cloth underneath the material for better
stability.
10. ANTICIPATED IRPACTS
The applicant was recently issued a general permit to place rip-rap in this
location. Unfortunately he failed to obtain permission to grade the bottom but
did so any way. He was required to restore the area to pre-project conditions.
This is a very dynamic area and the shoreline is subject to continuing subtle
changes. At the time the project area was surveyed the distance from the
existing rip-rap to the end of vegetated highground was approximately 360'.
This distance may have been altered by the recent hurricane. We would suggest
that the placement of the revetment be established by Division personnel just
before construction. Although not stated as a project use, the applicant has
developed the adjacent oceanfront' property within close proximity to the
project. The inlet hazard area AEC exists along the oceanfront. The project
is within the estuarine system AEC complex.
