FIELD INVESTIGATION REPORT - TURTLE BAY - OLDE TOWN PARTNERSHIP -
TOM KARAM, CRAVEN COUNTY
PAGE #2
8. PROJECT SUMMARY: The applicant proposes to maintenance
excavate a man-made canal approximately 370' long x 50' wide
by -6.5' deep on NWL and construct a bulkhead 340' long.
The spoil material, some 1,400 cu. yds. to be contained on
Lots #83, #84 and #85, Turtle Bay Drive, in Olde Towne
Subdivision, New Bern, Craven County.
9. NARRATIVE DESCRIPTION: The project site is known as the
Turtle Bay section of Olde Towne Subdivision, located off of
Pembrooke Road, better known as Country Club Road, about 1
mile southwest of the Highway 70 by-pass and the City of New
Bern, Craven County. The Turtle Bay section is the latest
expansion efforts of Mr. Tom Karam and his development
group, Olde Towne Partnership. Mr. Nelson G. Paul, acting
as consultant and President of ECPS, has put together an
informative CAMA application package for his clients. Part
of the application package that is included with the
distribution of this field report is a narrative description
of the project provided by Mr. Paul. His report represents
a clear and accurate description of the proposed project
site and work activities. The applicant has also supplied a
large blueline site plan that will help orient the review
agencies to the overall project boundaries, as well as,
focusing on the Turtle Bay canal site. Development of the
original 250 ac. tract of land started in the 1970;s. The
overall project includes a lengthy man-made canal and lagoon
system providing water access to the Trent River. The
Estuarine Waters in and around the project site are
classified as 'SC'.
The applicant proposes to maintenance excavate an existing
man-made canal-measuring 370' long x 50' wide. The proposed
maintenance excavation will restore the -6.5' water depth
relative to the NWL. Water depths within the canal average
-3.5' NWL. An estimated 1,400 to 2,000 cu. yds. of sandy
much will be excavated from the canal. The spoil material
will be placed directly on the highground property shown as
Lots #83, #84 and #85, adjacent to Turtle Bay Drive. An
earthen plug measuring 10' to 15' wide and 40' long
constructs the mouth of the canal to a narrow opening of
about 10' wide. Floating debris further restricts flushing
of the canal with the primary waterway connecting Olde Towne
Subdivision to the Trent River. Excavation of the plug will
displace approximately 50 sq. ft. of giant cordgrass and
cattails. These Coastal Wetlands are scattered along the
shoreline. A narrow band of sweet gum and waxed myrtle
reside along the east side of the canal where the proposed
bulkhead will be located. On the west side of the canal
FIELD INVESTIGATION REPORT - TURTLE BAY - OLDE TOWN PARTNERSHIP -
TOM KARAM, CRAVEN COUNTY
PAGE #3
opposite the residential area, the shoreline and terrain
adjacent to the canal are characterized as 1404' type
wetlands.
The residential east side of the canal will be stabilized
with a wooden bulkhead measuring a total shoreline length of
3401. The bulkhead will be aligned at an average distance
of 2' waterward of the NWL. This will allow for straight
line construction. On the north end of the canal, the
proposed bulkhead will join an existing bulkhead that
stabilizes the remaining Turtle Bay shoreline. On the south
end of the canal, the bulkhead will terminate with a
wing-wall into an open area of 1404' wetlands. Some of the
dredged spoil will be incorporated as backfill to the
proposed structure.
The project drawings show the proposed construction of
single-family houses on Lots 483, #84 and #85. As mentioned
in the application package, construction of these three
houses has already been authorized by a Minor CAMA Permit
issued by the City of New Bern in the Fall of 1989.
10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS: Maintenance excavation will displace
some 18,500 sq. ft. of bottom substrate characterized as
mucky sand. The onsite field inspection revealed no
significant quantities of estuarine resources occurring
within the canal. The potential impacts of increased
turbidity can be minimized by conducting all of the interior
excavation before opening the plug and canal to the primary
waterway. It is noted that the proposed -6.5' water depth
will connect to open-waters of equal depth. Proper
containment of the 1,400 to 2,000 cu. yds. of spoil will
also insure that runoff will not increase the amount of
suspended sediments in the surface waters. The proposed
excavation will directly displace some 50 sq. ft. of Coastal
Wetlands dominated by giant cordgrass. In addition, a
narrow fringe of 1404' wetlands will be removed. It is
further noted from the project drawings that no excavation
will occur to the 1404' shoreline on the western side of the
canal.
CAMA REVIEW SECTION: Most of the components of the proposed
project approximate the dimensions and limitations of the
CAMA General Permits, such as, those items listed under
maintenance excavation and bulkheading. However, it was
determined that processing a Major CAMA Permit would provide
the developer with a higher level of consistency in terms of
land use planning and environmental considerations. In
addition to the Turtle Bay project, the applicant is
FIELD INVESTIGATION REPORT - TURTLE BAY - OLDE TOWN PARTNERSHIP -
TOM KARAM, CRAVEN COUNTY
PAGE #4
currently developing other areas within the O1de Towne
properties. Southwest of Bats Hill Road, another new
section of homesites has been opened. Some 25 lots adjoin
two non-tidal ponds that appear to have been excavated from
wooded swamp wetland areas.
The project site is within the extraterritorial jurisdiction
of the City of New Bern. Therefore, the 1987 Updated Land
Use Plan for the City of New Bern was consulted in the
review of the Turtle Bay application. The land
classification maps show the highground area to be
'Transition' where municipal services are provided and the
surface waters of the canal system as 'Conservation'. At
the same time, the planning document provides a list of
Environmental Determinants on Map #4, on Page 25, that shows
the entire Olde Towne development located in a highly
unsuitable area for urban growth where flooding is common.
It is uncertain, at this time, as to whether or not the
proposed project is consistent with the goals and objectives
of the local land use plan. Additional comments and review
will be required in the interpretation of the City's
planning document before a consistency determination will be
made.

Narrative - Overview
The Olde Towne subdivision is located ±3/4 mile outside of New
Bern, south of Highway 70, off Country Club Road in Craven
County. The subdivision was begun in the late 1970's and is
built around the Olde Towne Canal and borders the Trent River.
The Olde Towne Canal is an artesian fed basin, originally created
as a borrow pit for materials to construct the Highway 70 bypass
in the early 1970's. It was opened for navigation by a canal dug
under state and federal permits in the mid 1970's.
The Olde Towne property is divided into two large tracts by the
basin and canal. The north side is undeveloped and is largely a
cypress, maple and gum swamp, interrupted by a few small low sand
ridges and fill areas rimming the canal and basin. South of the
basin and canal, where the ridges are more prominent and
continuous, is the present Olde Towne subdivision. Soils on the
ridges are classified as Tarboro series, a highly permeable sand
typically found in the flood plains of the major eastern North
Carolina rivers. Wetland soils are classified as Masontown/
Mucklee series. These soils have gray sandy subsoils under
organic layers of variable thickness.
The property is within the planning jurisdiction of the City of
New Bern and the uplands are classified as transitional by the
City Land Use Plan. Wetlands are classified as conservation
under the same plan. The Trent River water quality is classified
as SC by the Division of Environmental Management. Adjacent
waters are also classified as joint fishing waters by agreement
between the Wildlife Resources Commission and the Division of
Marine Fisheries.
Narrative - Proiect Site
The project site of this application is located north of Batts
Hill Road and west of Turtle Bay Drive. The project will involve
the maintenance excavation of an existing canal presently 370'
long, 50' wide, and 3.5' deep, and the construction and backfill
of a bulkhead along the east side of the canal that will average
2' below the normal water level.
The edge of the canal is presently vegetated on both sides by
black willow, bay, red maple, wax myrtle, sweet gum, groundsel
tree and dog fennel. The uplands on the east are vegetated with
red oak and loblolly pine. The wetlands across the canal on the
west are dominated by red maple, black gum, and minor amounts of
bald cypress. Higher portions include loblolly pine and wax
myrtle. Elevations on the eastern side of the canal are t5',
whereas on the western side of the canal they range from 1.5' to
3.5'.

A partial plug exists at the canal mouth that include`s'-fhe-----------------
typical species rimming the canal along with some minor amounts
of giant cordgrass and cattail. Outside the canal and to the
east, an existing bulkhead will be backfilled, behind which are
minor amounts of willow, maple, myrtle, bay, cattail, dog fennel,
and accumulated flotsam. This structure was erected by authority
of CAMA General Permit Number 4195C, and areas east of the canal
that were previously filled are covered under CAMA Minor
Development Permit Number 897-1, issued by the City of New Bern.
Three residential structures were authorized for individual lots
83, 84, and 85 by this Minor Development Permit decision.
Narrative - Proposal/Anticipated Impacts
The developer is proposing to maintain the existing canal to its
previous depth of 6.5'. This will disturb approximately 18,500
s.f. of subtidal substrate and is expected to produce
approximately 1400 cubic yards of spoil material. The spoil
material will be spread and leveled on lots 83, 84, and 85 along
with the area occupied by the sewer lift station. The bulkhead
proposed for the east side will be constructed and backfilled
also at this time. It will be 340' long and will average 2'
offshore. In addition, an area of volunteer 404 type wetlands
behind the existing bulkhead will be filled. This area is
approximately 40' long and 10' wide (200 s.f.) and is sparsely
vegetated. These activities are not expected to be a significant
adverse impact on the water quality or marine resources of the
adjacent water bodies.
Narrative - Total Development/Required Statements
in accordance with 15 NCAC 7J .0203 (C)(1-5) the developer makes
the following required statements:
The Olde Towne subdivision is a residential subdivision composed
of no more than 150 single family residential lots and 64
townhouse units. There is no area dedicated to non-residential
purposes other than natural areas, open space, ponds, lakes,
roadways, and parking. Wastewater is to be handled by the Town
of New Bern Municipal system.
Access is available to the site of this application without any
new fill crossings of section 404 wetlands.
A plan of the development is attached and shown on the
sedimentation and erosion control plan, as are the approved
wetland delineation maps and plats.
