Wayne Wright Wilmington District, P.O. Box 1890 RE: Action ID. 199203418 Town of Edenton Dear Mr. Wright; D u ? U ?c Reference your letter dated September 3, 1992 concerning the Town of Edenton's application to remove a pier, remove four mooring dolphins, construct a new pier with handicap ramp, break- water structure and construct and backfill a bulkhead on Edenton Bay, Edenton, Chowan County, North Carolina. The following comments are provided for the additional information requested: a: The existing pier is presently in an unsafe condition and not practical for public use. The construction of a new pier at a different angle from the shoreline would prove to be a better use of the resources by eliminating the trapping of public trust waters. The addition of a breakwater to the pier structure will increase safe boating and assist in navigating in and out of the launching area. The removal of the four mooring dolphins would create very little disturbance, restore the river bottom to its natural conditions and would greatly improve navigation. The dolphins serve no purpose with the current use of the Park area. The construction and backfill of the bulkhead will be consistent with all other new bulkhead construction in the Park over the last several years. This is the last remaining section of the Park to still consist of rip rap. Steel sheet-metal bulkheading will be used to create least disturbance of bottom and minimum amount of backfill required. b: No wetlands on site. c: No wetlands will be disturbed in this project. Bulkheading will create more stable shoreline with no loss of waters. Construction of new pier will create better access to public trust waters and increase.availability for use. P.O.

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 breakwater structure will consist of treated wood boards afixed vertically to treated wood stringers on the pier pilings. A one-inch space will be left between each vertical board. C. The steel sheet bulkhead will be positioned in strict accordance with permit plans. To prevent an unintentional violation of this authorization, representatives of the North Carolina Division of Coastal Management and the Corps of Engineers will be available to stake the bulkhead alignment prior to construction. d. All fill materials will be obtained from a highground source and confined landward of the permitted bulkhead. e. Fill materials will be clean and free of any pollutants except in trace quantities. Metal products, organic materials, or unsightly debris will not be used. A •' .s i -2- f. No vegetated wetlands will be excavated or filled. g. The activity will be conducted in such a manner as to prevent a significant increase in turbidity outside the area of construction or construction-related discharge. Increases such that the turbidity in the waterbody is 50 NTU's or less are not considered significant. h. 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. i. The permittee will maintain the authorized work in good condition and in conformance with the terms and conditions of this permit.

The tract is within the Edenton Historic District and serves as a recreational park for area residents. The majority of the site lies approximately 3.5' above the normal water level. The soil is a find sand and is excessively drained. Vegetation on this part of the tract consists of lawn grasses and ornamental trees. Along the shoreline are: crepe myrtle, wax myrtle and flowering dogwoods. A 400 square foot low area lies adjacent to the bay and an existing building. This area may be jurisdictional wetlands. Presently there exists on the tract a recreational building, shuffle board court, volleyball court, and a gazebo. Cutting into the property from Edenton Bay is a boat basin approximately 75' x 30' in size. A 151 x 15' floating deck lies on the west side of the basin. There is a 351 x 8' pier with a 181 x 16' platform running at an approximately 45 degree angle from the shoreline south of the basin. Four sets of mooring dolphins lie south of the existing pier. The shoreline of the boat basin is protected by approximately 75' of bulkhead on the east side and rip rap on the north and west sides. The west shoreline of the tract is protected with concrete demolition material. The waters of Edenton Bay are classified SB by NC DEM and Estuarine by NC DCM. s C7v-- i, L += The Town of Edenton proposes to remove the existing 35' x 8' s pier, the 181x 16' platform and all 4 dolphins. In the place of the existing pier but running perpendicular to the existing bulkheaded shoreline they propose building a 601x 8' pier (no platform). Adjacent to this pier and parallel to shore they propose a 161 x 5' handicap ramp which would enable mobility impaired individuals to access the proposed pier from the park. Beneath the proposed pier the town proposes to construct a 60' breakwater. The town has presented two breakwater designs. The first has the pressure treated wood breakwater attached to the pilings of the pier and extending 2 feet above the normal water level. The second plan would have the sound side of the pier resting on a concrete caped steel sheet pile breakwater. In the latter case the breakwater and cap would extend approximately 3 feet above the normal water level. The town would leave a 1 inch space between each vertical board in the first design. In the second design no spaces or gaps would be left between the steel sheet piles. :frF; The town proposes to upgrade the shoreline of the park by constructing 440 feet of steel sheet pile bulkhead waterward of the existing rip rap. The average distance waterward of the normal Town of Edenton Bio Report Page Three water level would be approximately 5 feet. The existing rip rap would be left in place landward of the bulkhead and clean fill r placed over the rip rap. The steel sheet pile bulkhead will have ° a 29 inch wide concrete cap. ab ' Anticipated Impacts The proposed project will result in a temporary increase in water turbidity. Approximately 400 square feet of possible wetlands will be filled during the constructing of the bulkhead. The pier and handicap ramp will shade approximately 560 square feet of public trust waters. However the existing pier and platform which will be removed cover 568 square feet of Public Trust Waters CAMA Review Though the site lies within the Edenton Historic District no archeological or historical significanes has been attached to this tract by the N.C. Division of Archives and History. No remanent species of plants or animals have been identified on this site. The filling of 11404" wetlands is typically inconsistent with CAMA rules. The height of both of the proposed breakwater exceeds the limits set by LAMA regulations. The construction of a gapless breakwater would also be inconsistent with CAMA policy.

PERMIT AND WATER QUALITY CERTIFICAT The Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resource eives public notice as required by NCGS 113A-119(b) and 143-215 3(a)(1)(c) that TOWN OF EDENTON of Chowan County, filed an application on August 12, 1992, for a permit from the Division of Coastal Management to develop in an Area of Environmental Concern and for certification from the Division of Environmental Management that a discharge of fill material in project wetlands will not violate applicable water quality standards. According to said application TOWN OF EDEN`hON proposes to remove an existing pier, platform and 4 mooring dolphins and build a pier, handicap ramp, breakwater and bulkhead the existing rip rap protected shoreline. The property is located at colonial Waterfront Park (Water Street and S. Broad Street) on Edenton Bay. A copy of the entire application and additional information may be examined (or copies furnished upon request and payment of reproduction costs) during normal business hours at the office of Richard L. Watts, Division of Coastal Management, located at 1367 US 17 South, Elizabeth City, N.C., 919/264-3901. and/or the office of Deborah Sawyer, Division of Environmental Management, DEHNR Regional Field Office, Washington, N.C., (919) 946-6481. The Division of Environmental Management proposes to take final action on this water quality certification on or before September 28, 1992. The issuance of the CAMA Major Development permit and the Section 401 Certification may deviate from this projected date depending upon the nature of the comments submitted and subsequent hearings that may result. All persons desiring to make comments should do so in writing to Roger N. Schecter, Director, Division of Coastal Management, P.O. Box 27687, Raleigh. N.C., 27611, prior to September 23, 1992 for consideration in the CANNA permit decision, and to Mr. John Dorney, Division of Environmental Management, P_O.

The tract is within the Edenton Historic District and serves as a recreational park for area residents. The majority of the. site lies approximately 3.5' above the normal water level. The soil is a find sand and is excessively drained. Vegetation on this part of the tract consists of lawn grasses and ornamental trees. Along the shoreline are: crepe myrtle, wax myrtle and flowering dogwoods. A 400 square foot low area lies adjacent to the bay and an existing building. This area may be jurisdictional wetlands. Presently there exists on the tract a recreational building, shuffle board court, volleyball court, and a gazebo. Cutting into the property from Edenton Bay is a boat basin approximately 75' x 30' in size. A 15' x 15' floating deck lies on the west side of the basin. There is a 35' x 8' pier with a 18' x 16' platform running at an approximately 45 degree angle from the shoreline south of the basin. Four sets of mooring dolphins lie south of the existing pier. The shoreline of the boat basin is protected by approximately 75' of bulkhead on the east side and rip rap on the north and west sides. The west shoreline of the tract is protected with concrete demolition material. The waters of Edenton Bay are classified SB by NC DEM and Estuarine by NC DCM. The Town of Edenton proposes to remove the existing 35' x 8' pier, the 181x 16' platform and all 4 dolphins. In the place of the existing pier but running perpendicular to the existing bulkheaded shoreline they propose building a 601x 8' pier (no platform). Adjacent to this pier and parallel to shore they propose a 16' x 5' handicap ramp ,which would enable mobility impaired individuals to access the proposed pier from the park. Beneath the proposed pier the town proposes to construct a 60' breakwater. The town has presented two breakwater designs. The first has the pressure treated wood breakwater attached to the pilings of the pier and extending 2 feet above the normal water level. The second plan would have the sound side of the pier resting on a concrete caped steel sheet pile breakwater. In the latter case the breakwater and cap would extend approximately 3 feet above the normal water level. The town would leave a 1 inch space between each vertical board in the first design. In the second design no spaces or gaps would be left between the steel sheet piles. The town proposes to upgrade the shoreline of the park by constructing 440 feet of steel sheet pile bulkhead waterward of the existing rip rap. The average distance waterward of the normal L y sY Town of Edenton Bio Report K s Page Three water level would be approximately 5 feet. The existing rip rap z' would be left in place landward of the bulkhead and clean fill placed over the rip rap. The steel sheet pile bulkhead will have a 29 inch wide concrete cap. Anticipated Impacts The proposed project will result in a temporary increase in lb: water.turbidity. Approximately 400 square feet of possible wetlands will be filled during the constructing of the bulkhead. The pier and handicap ramp will shade approximately 560 square feet of public trust waters. However the existing pier and platform which will be removed cover 568 square feet of Public Trust Waters CAMA Review Though the site lies within the Edenton Historic District no archeological or historical significanes has been attached to this tract by the N.C. Division; of Archives and History. No remanent species of plants or animals have been identified on this site. The filling of 11404" wetlands is typically inconsistent with CAMA rules. The height of both of the proposed breakwater exceeds the limits set by CAMA regulations. The construction of a gapless breakwater would also be inconsistent with CAMA policy.

SEP 1602 Reference your application for Department of the Army (DA) authorization to remove a pier, platform and four mooring dolphins and construct a pier, handicap ramp, breakwater structure and construct and backfill a bulkhead on Edenton Bay, Edenton, Chowan County, North Carolina. On February 6, 1990, the DA and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) signed a memorandum of agreement (MOA) establishing procedures to determine the type and level of mitigation necessary to comply with the Clean Water Act Section 404(b)(1) Guidelines. This MOA provides for first, avoiding impacts to waters and wetlands through the selection of the least damaging, practical alternative; second, taking appropriate and practical steps to minimize impacts on waters and wetlands; and finally, compensating for any remaining unavoidable impacts to the extent appropriate and practical. To enable us to process your application in full compliance with this MOA, we request that you provide the following additional information: a. Permits for work within wetlands or other special aquatic sites are available only if the proposed work is the least environmentally damaging, practicable alternative. Please furnish information regarding any other alternatives, including upland alternatives, to the work for which you have applied and provide justification that your selected plan is the least damaging to water or wetland areas. b. It is necessary for you to have taken all appropriate and practical steps to minimize wetland losses. Please indicate all that you have done, especially regarding development and modification of plans and proposed construction techniques, to minimize adverse impacts. c. The MOA requires that appropriate and practical mitigation will be required for all unavoidable adverse impacts remaining after all appropriate and practical minimization has been employed. Please indicate your plan to mitigate for the projected, unavoidable loss of waters or wetlands or provide information as to the absence of any such appropriate and practical measures. I -2- This information is essential to our expeditious processing of your application and it should be forwarded to us by October 2, 1992. Also, a copy of this information must be sent to the North Carolina Division of Environmental Management to enable them to adequately evaluate your application for a Water Quality Certification pursuant to Section 401 of the Clean Water Act. If you have questions, please do not hesitate to contact Ms. Laura Pogo, Washington Field Office, Regulatory Branch, telephone (919) 975-3609.
