Dear Mr. Parker:
,JAN ? 21993
Reference the application of Mr. Gene Whicker for a Department of the Army
permit to construct a pier and boatlift structure on the Lockwood Folly River,
Lockwood Folly Subdivision, Brunswick County, North Carolina.
The Federal agencies have completed review of the proposal as presented by
the application and your field investigation report.
We recommend that the following conditions be included in the State
authorization:
a. All work authorized by this permit must be performed in strict
compliance with the permit plans.
b. The pier will not extended farther waterward than is required to reach
a depth of 2 feet, mean low water (MLW). The structure will not approach
closer than 43 feet to the near edge of the Federally maintained channel.
C. This permit does not authorize the interference with any existing or
proposed Federal project, and the permittee will not be entitled to
compensation for damage or injury to the authorized structure or work which
may be caused from existing or future operations undertaken by the United
states in the public interest.
d. No attempt will be made by the permittee to prevent the full and free
use by the public of all navigable waters at or adjacent to the authorized
work. Use of the permitted activity must not interfere with the public's
right to free navigation on all navigable waters of the United States.
e. If the display of lights and signals on the authorized structure is
not otherwise provided for by law, such lights and signals as may be
prescribed by the U.S. Coast Guard will be installed and maintained by and at
the expense of the permittee.

9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project area is a single-family residential lot (Lot 318), on Genoes Point Road,
in Lockwood Folly Subdivision, adjacent to the Lockwood Folly River, in Brunswick
County. The lot is approximately 315 feet in depth and 90 feet in width. The lot is
currently vacant, wooded, primarily with live oak and hickory, but the applicant is in
the process of designing his private residence for subsequent construction on the
lot. The highground area of the lot averages about 7.5 feet elevation M.S.L., and
gradually slopes from the road toward the river. The waterward side of the lot
(northeast) transitions from highground to a 70-80 feet wide border of high coastal
marsh. Vegetation species observed were; Juncus roemarianus, i ni m spp.,
Salicornia spp., i i hli spicata, Borrichia frutescena, Spartina patens. and
Spartina alterniflora. The frequency of smooth cordgrass (S. alterniflora) increases
in a waterward direction, resulting in a 30 feet border, comprised solely of smooth
cordgrass, completing the waterward limits of coastal wetland vegetation prior to
open water. The Lockwood Folly River is approximately 2600 feet wide in the
project area, however there are extensive areas of smooth cordgrass marsh,
numerous marsh islands, and shoals interspersed throughout the shallow river
basin. The U. S. Army Corps of Engineers (U.S.A.C.O.E.) maintains a channel, 100
feet wide, along the southside (project side) of the river. The navigational easement
for the project extends up river to the bridge on N. C. Hyw'211. The U.S.A.C.O.E.
is currently in the process of initiating a maintenance dredging project that will
extend approximately two miles above Varnumtown, N.C.
The waters in the project area are classified SA by the N.C. Division of
Environmental Management. The applicant's property is located in close proximity
to the line established by the N.C. Division of Marine Fisheries which has
traditionally separated OPEN and CLOSED shellfishing waters. Currently, even the
waters south of this line are temporarily closed by recent DMF proclamation. The
waters are not designated as primary nursery area.
The applicant proposes to construct a pier from his property for water access to the
Lockwood Folly River. The pier would be 121.5 feet long and 4 feet wide, and
would terminate in a T-shaped platform at its waterward end. This platform would
be 15 feet long and 12 feet wide. A walkway (20' X 31 would extend from the
southeast corner of the platform to access a proposed boatlift (20' X 12'). A
second boatlift (15' X 12') is proposed on the northwest side of the T-head
platform. No roofing is proposed over any of the structure. The end of the pier
would be located at elevation -4.2 N.G.V.D. or -2 feet at MLW. This would place
the end of the structure 43 feet from the toe of the federally maintained channel.
The pier would be elevated over wetland vegetation.
10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS
The proposed structure would incorporate 660 square feet of estuarine/public trust
waters. The construction of the pier may create localized, short-term turbidity
increases during piling installation. If properly elevated over marsh vegetation, the
pier should result in no adverse impacts to marine resources.

southeast corner of the platform to access a proposed boatlift (20' X 12'). A
second boatlift (15' X 12') is proposed on the northwest side of the T-head
platform. No roofing is proposed over any of the structure. The end of the pier
would be located at elevation -4.2 N.G.V.D. or -2 feet at MLW. This would place
the end of the structure 43 feet from the toe of the federally maintained channel.
The pier would be elevated over wetland vegetation.
10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS
The proposed structure would incorporate 660 square feet of estuarine/public trust
waters. The construction of the pier may create localized, short-term turbidity
increases during piling installation. If properly elevated over marsh vegetation, the
pier should result in no adverse impacts to marine resources.
