Dear Ms. Karoly:
This note is to confirm our telephone review of Monday June 20, 2005 concerning your attached
subject approval letter of June 15, 2005. This note is consistent with a same subject telcomm. with
Jonathan Howell, DCM Morehead City, and his request that clarification be made through your office.
Your approval of up to .061 acres of wetland ( Pamlico River shoreline edge ) impact/fill to allow
construction of the shoreline stabilization revetment wall per the CAMA Major Permit
Application & Plan is appreciated. You indicated that the .061 acre impact was the allowance
provided in a NCDENR internal document (which I do not have ) . This allowance is sufficient to
allow the owner to carry out the shoreline stabilization revetment wall per the original CAMA Major
Permit Plan & Application (with the offshore segmented breakwater previously withdrawn/deleted ).
2. In paragraph 2, two sentences as marked in your attached letter are incorrect and appear in
conflict with the .061 acre Pamlico River shoreline fill allowance approval in item 1 above. If the full
2,974 square feet of area ( NCDENR internal figure ) were deleted, that would delete the above
.061 acres and all of the shoreline stabilization revetment wall in addition to the deleted offshore
breakwater. There is no intent on anyone's part, including the Owner, to change the CAMA
Major Permit Plan & Application beyond deletion of the segmented breakwater already removed.
Subject to your review, deletion of the sentences and a reissue of the letter will clarify intent. Delete:
The correspondence received May 18,2005, notes that the request for work on the shoreline as described in the
Division of Coastal Management Field Investigation Work, including 2,974 square feet of impacts to the
river bottom, was to be withdrawn from the application request. Therefore, please note that no fill in
wetlands will be authorized by this Certification.
3. Per our discussion, the owner and agent also understand that the general sentence in
paragraph # 3 does not apply to this project given the specific impacts approved in your 6/15/05
letter. ( ie: total fill in excess of one acre of wetland or 150 linear feet of stream ) does not apply.

(910)-762-3757, or [phone] email: anortonjra.ec.rr.com
Subject: CAMA Major Permit Application & Plan- Knight Property at Pamlico Bluffs, Chocowinity, NC
We understand that the DWQ .061 acres maximum fill limit along the river shoreline wetland for the
shoreline stabilization plus the CAMA Permit limit of 10 feet in water, average five feet, over the
revetment wall ( shoreline stabilization ) length, controls construction.
I again offer to meet concurrently with DWQ & DCM if needed for clarification at your or Tom Steffen's
choice of location. Because I have not seen several NCDENR DCM internal documents and their
figures, I would need for DCM to be represented.
I have requested of Jonathan Howell that DCM proceed to issue the CAMA Major Permit with the
understanding that your above clarification letter is forthcoming.
Thank you for your patience and help. We are making our best effort here to be sure that a contractor
does not make a mistake during construction due to a lack of clear documentation.

Ladies and Gentlemen of Reviewing & Approving US & NC Agencies;
This letter requests that the Subject Property planned 324 feet of Segmented Gabion Breakwater at 50
feet offshore in 12-15 " of water depth in the Pamlico River be eliminated and that the. CAMA Major
Permit for the Site be issued excluding approval of this in-water breakwater ( DWQ sill ) structure.
Agencies concerns about this off-shore protective breakwater are noted. The required summer season
study of SAV potential ( Ref. 2 ) in this med./high energy & wave scoured River location does not
appear feasible in support of the breakwater ( DWQ sill ) proposal. Project timing & the hurricane
season are factors.
The shoreline protection & environmental support from the Breakwater is in the Plan ( pp 20,21 &
Append. W1-W12 & CC ). The several positive merits are also in Ref. 3 & 4. Water depths & aquatic
vegetation ( emergent ) locations were addressed in the text, Dwgs. K-1 & K-1A & Append. U1- U3.
The Plan ( page 20 ) states:
"If the following breakwater design cannot be approved within normal review cycles, this structure should be
excluded from this Permit process."
I understand that there are no other permitting concerns with the remainder of the Application & Plan.
The participation of numerous NC DENR & USACE personnel is appreciated.

Beaufort County
Project Setting
The project site is located off SRI 119 adjacent to the Pamlico River near the Town of Chocowinity in
Beaufort County. Mr. Knight purchased ten lots from the adjacent Pamlico Bluffs subdivision and has
consolidated them to one 6.64-acre tract for a single-family dwelling. The 6.64-acre track includes a somewhat
unique geological feature; an approximately 30' high erosion escarpment or bluff shoreline bordering the
Pamlico River. Access to the project site is via the entry road and cul du sac in Pamlico Bluffs. There are no
existing structures or facilities on the project site.
The Pamlico River along the project site is an estuarine water body classified as SC/NSW by the North
Carolina Environmental Management Committee. The near shore area along this section of the Pamlico River
range from zero water depth at the shore, to approximatelyl5" deep 50' offshore and ±20" deep 100' offshore.
The project site is bordered to the west by a single-family dwelling located in the Pamlico Bluffs
subdivision. That portion of Pamlico Bluffs is subdivided with little development activity. Taylor's Gut, a small
stream borders the project site to the east. Vegetation on the site consists of pines, oaks, beech trees, sweet
gums, and various under-story shrubs indigenous to the area. Several small segemented patches ofJuncus
roemerianus were observed along the shoreline. Seasonal conditions limit evaluation of submerged aquatic
vegetation at this time. However, evidence observed during the field investigation indicates that there is at least
some presence of submerged aquatic vegetation during the growing season.
Project Description
The applicant proposes to grade the existing ±30' bluff down to a 2:1 slope and armor the slope with
riprap for approximately 450' of shoreline. Riprap will be placed on average 5' waterward of the normal water
level not to exceed 10' beyond normal water level.
The applicant proposes to build a single-family home and driveway on an upland portion of the project
site. A 1000-gallon septic tank and underground wastewater field will manage sewage disposal. Building plans
include the construction of a ±20 X ±20 observation gazebo approximately 60' landward of the normal water
level.
Anticipated Impacts
The project as proposed will result in the filling of ±2,250 square feet for shoreline stabilization.
±27,000 square feet of shoreline bluff will be impacted to create the 2:1 stabilized slope. The gazebo as
constructed will impact ± 400 square feet 60 feet from the normal water level. As a result of construction, short-
term turbidity is anticipated along the project site.

Ladies and Gentlemen of Reviewing & Approving US & NC Agencies;
This letter requests that the Subject Property planned 324 feet of Segmented Gabion Breakwater at 50
feet offshore in 12-15 " of water depth in the Pamlico River be eliminated and that the CAMA Major
Permit for the Site be issued excluding approval of this in-water breakwater ( DWQ sill ) structure.
Agencies concerns about this off-shore protective breakwater are noted. The required summer season
study of SAV potential ( Ref. 2 ) in this med./high energy & wave scoured River location does not
appear feasible in support of the breakwater ( DWQ sill ) proposal. Project timing & the hurricane
season are factors.
The shoreline protection & environmental support from the Breakwater is in the Plan ( pp 20,21 &
Append. W1-W12 & CC ). The several positive merits are also in Ref. 3 & 4. Water depths & aquatic
vegetation ( emergent ) locations were addressed in the text, Dwgs. K-1 & K-1A & Append. U1- U3.
The Plan ( page 20 ) states:
"If the following breakwater design cannot be approved within normal review cycles, this structure should be
excluded from this Permit process."
I understand that there are no other permitting concerns with the remainder of the Application & Plan.
The participation of numerous NC DENR & USACE personnel is appreciated.
Sincerely,
Allyn S. Norton

REQUEST FOR MORE INFORMATION
Dear Mr. and Mr. Knight:
On March 28, 2005, the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) received your application to impact up to 0.06 acre of
river bottom to construct a rip-rap sill in the Pamlico River in order to stabilize the shoreline and slope a lot for a
single family home. The DWQ has determined that your application was incomplete and/or provided inaccurate
information as discussed below. The DWQ will require additional information in order to process your application
to impact the Pamlico River. Therefore, unless we receive the addi 'onal information requested below, we will have
to move toward denial of your application as required by 15A NCAC. 2H .0506 and will place this project on hold as
incomplete until we receive this additional information. Please provide the following information so that we may
continue to review your project.
Additional Information Requested:
1. Impact justification
Please provide compelling evidence of the need for placement of an offshore rip-rap sill in the Pamlico River,
given that the shoreline is already rip-rapped.

Project Description
The applicant proposes to grade the existing ±30' bluff down to a 2:1 slope and
armor the slope with riprap for approximately 450' of shoreline. Riprap will be placed on
average 5' waterward of the normal water level not to exceed 10' beyond normal water
level.
±324' of segmented breakwater is proposed to be constructed on average 50' from
the normal water level and not to exceed 55' waterward of the normal water level. The
breakwater will be constructed of 3' X 3' X 12' long gabion baskets. As proposed, the
breakwater will extend above the normal water level approximately 21". The baskets will
be arranged to alternate 36' of rock and 36' of open water for 5 rock segments and 4 open
water segments.
The applicant proposes to build a single-family home and driveway on an upland
portion of the project site. A 1000-gallon septic tank and underground wastewater field
will manage sewage disposal. Building plans include the construction of a ±20 X ±20
observation gazebo approximately 60' landward of the normal water level.
Anticipated Impacts
The project as proposed will result in the filling of ±324 square feet of river
bottom for the rock breakwater and ±2,250 square feet for shoreline stabilization.
±27,000 square feet of shoreline bluff will be impacted to create the 2:1 stabilized slope.

The gazebo as constructed will impact ± 400 square feet 60 feet from the normal water
level. As a result of construction, short-term turbidity is anticipated along the project site.

Property & Residence Development Permitting
4. Purpose
The purpose of this Plan is to develop a single private residence on 0.7 acres
of a 6.64 acre property owned by the Knight Family. The residence will consist
of a 3,713 square foot house on 2 levels over a ground floor basement housing
a three car garage as seen Drawing K-2 in Attach. D. Porches as shown are on
the front and rear of the home. A minimum yard clearing is intended with enough
space for the residence and offset protection from potential tree damage. The
cleared area for the yard will be approximately 135 feet wide and 145 feet deep.
The rest of the property, except for shoreline stabilization and a driveway will be
left in a natural state.
5. Scope of Permit Develpment
The scope, includes:
A. One private home set back from a 30 foot high bluff
on the Pamlico River and behind the DENR 75' Area of
Environmental Concern (AEC ).
B. One private roadway / driveway from an existing road in the
Pamlico Bluffs Subdivision to the Residence clearing - a 412 foot
crushed rock driveway 14 feet wide. Also well behind 75' AEC.
C. One 20 x 20 foot gazebo observation platform toward one end
of the Property. Behind the 50' buffer line.
D. A natural person pathway with treated lumber steps from the
driveway to the River shoreline. All construction behind the 75' AEC.
E. Provide a maximum of 450 feet of shoreline stabilization for the
high bluffs alone the Pamlico River to control severe erosion of the
River banks. Fifty feet of shoreline, facing NE, has been lost over 50
years. Slope the bluffs for erosion control and safety with minimum
tree loss. Parts, but not all inside the 30' or 50' buffer lines.
F. A segmented near-shore breakwater to promote sand tombolos, low
shoreline scour protection and SAV recovery in front of the narrow
beachfront and along 324 feet of the shoreline.
G. Fences & rails along high bluff slope peaks as observation points
and safety features. These are treated as no-impact features.
There are no steps or walkways on the graded & matted bluff slopes.
Item E above contributes enough disturbed area to this Project to create 1.39 acres
of disturbed area and the need for this Major Permit.

6. Best Practices Planned
A number of Best Practices are employed in this Project as follows:
A. The Property is undeveloped, unharmed and pristine including a mixed natural
forest, a coastal wetland along the rear border, and a low-level narrow
natural shoreline along the Pamlico River. The Owner desires to keep the Property
predominantly natural. Most trees will be left. The woodland floor
will be minimally disturbed. Point source water flows will be avoided.
B. The wetland has been delineated and will not be approached by any development
within 60-75 feet.
C. The 6.24 Acre Tract has historically been deeded as 10 building lots including
multiple prior underground wastewater approvals. This old plan is abandoned in
favor of a single isolated residence.
D. Most of the natural shoreline base will be left untouched except for dead storm
trash cleanup ( no stumps removed ). Shoreline stabilization will be moved inland
away from the waters edge except where insufficient room exists. Stabilization is
aimed at stopping the documented 40-50 feet of erosion loss over the past 50 years.
E. A single underground wastewater site has been selected with sandy loam soil
clear to 4 foot depth. No surface waters are within 70 feet and the area
around the waste field will not be disturbed.
8
F. All storm-water runoff will be naturally disbursed. Except for house gutters, there
are no culverts or concentrated flow pipes planned for the site.
G. The shoreline faces east-north-east with a reach of 3 plus miles. As a result,
sub-aquatic vegetation ( SAV ) has been scoured and few traces
remain. Of the marked traces that do remain, sand spits or minor tombolo's have
built behind them. The proposed near-shore segmented breakwater is intended to
accelerate tombolo development and reduce shoreline scouring.
Breakwater rock is contained in gabions to avoid disbursement.
H. All new ( no old exist) structures will create impervious areas of less than 5.5 %.
1. Historical access to the property over a mapped Taylor's Gut Wetland Road is
permanently eliminated in favor of a new high bluff access behind the 75' AEC.

7. Map Details
The Checklist calls for several items on the Top or Plan View Drawing
which are difficult to portray accurately. There are other items concerning
the map which deserve comment. Map details are further discussed here.
A. The Plan Map for this project is two maps labeled K-1 ( Attach. C )
and K-1A ( Attach. J ). The two maps are the same composites of
several surveys obtained from public records and measurements.
Plan Map K-1 focuses the topology of the existing steep bluffs immediately
adjacent to the Pamlico River. The bluffs drop down to low areas of 1to 5 feet
elevation. These low areas are the result of long term storm over-wash and
are relatively stable. The horizontal distances from the nearly vertical bluffs to the
mean water level ( normal water level ) vary from 20 feet to 93 feet. Stabilization of
these bluffs against wind, rain, and storm surge damage is the key to successful
development of this property. The second Plan Map Plan Map K-1A focuses on the
topology of bluff protection using excavation, fill and shoreline rock ( rip-rap)
stabilization. Map K-1A also focuses more than Map K-Ion all excavation and fill and
on the construction paths and means of achieving stabilization.
B. The Checklist calls for "exact areas and dimensions of proposed excavation,
fill and/or spoil disposal'. Map K-1A is marked as "For Fill" for fill areas and
" EX " for excavation areas. Further dimensional detail includes the following
points.
(1) Excavation and fill areas are shown in the disturbed area calculations
in Attach. Z. All on-site material excavation will be used as fill; mostly
in bluff grading. There will be no surplus or off-site spoil disposal.
2) All of the Property will be kept in a natural state to the maximum
extent possible.
(3) All topsoil removed will be temporarily stored near the point of use
and reapplied to the extent of supply. The same applies to natural
mulch.
(4) All earth uncovered will, at a minimum, be stabilized, prepared for
planting, matted on slopes steeper than 5:1 and planted per the
Soil Erosion and Control Plan.
(5) Final house placement is within 20 to 30 feet of the plans shown.
However, exact house placement does depend on the as-built
grading and sloping of the high bluffs.
(6) The grading and sloping of the high bluffs is shown in Maps/Dwgs.
K-1A, K-2 and K-3. Grading of the bluffs between the residence
and Pamlico River ( K-2 cross-section ) is critical to the Project
because of horizontal space limitations. The base of the bluff is
only 18-23 feet from the River. This is the basis for the request
to enter sallow water ( 6 inches ) for up to 10 feet over a portion of
the shoreline stabilization ( entry depends on tides. At times, all
of the rock will be on dry land ). ( continued )

The slope of the excavation is limited by design to a minimum 2:1
( horizontal:vertical ) (same as a maximum of 26.5 degrees ). Lower
slopes are preferred. While higher slopes can be specified, the cost
of protecting against bank shear and worst-case stormwater erosion
is unfavorable. Other methods such as gabion stacks and
reinforced earth layering have been carefully considered and rejected
both due to cost and the unavailability of local interested contractors
with demonstrated expertise. Higher slope alternatives are more labor
intensive and offer less human safety. Lower slopes would be preferred.
Therefore, the placement of shoreline stabilization rock and bank slopes
will be as shown with minor adjustments to achieve balance between
excavation and fill volumes along the full length of the stabilization.
Where lower slopes such as 2.5:1 and 3:1 will best match bluff height,
horizontal frontage, and excavation and fill volumes , lower slopes will be
used. The lower slopes will occur as the stabilization rock installation
moves toward Taylor's Gut from the residence site. A majority of the
rock facing will start well behind the mean high water line as shown
in Dwg. K-1A. The horizontal depth of rock and excavated slope will
approximately equal the bluff height. Existing bluff heights are shown
on Dwg. K-1. Using K-1A measurements, the shoreline stabilization and
bank grading will average 55 feet wide by up to 450 feet long ( both rock &
soil ) or 24, 750 sq. feet of cut and fill.
(7) The extent of cut and fill depends, to a small degree, on the construction
method used for the shoreline stabilization. Method is covered in the
construction methods section. If a mid-slope single-excavator method
is followed, a working sill must be cut from the driveway at Lot 6 to the
west end of the revetment. This sill is shown on Drawing K-1A. The
excavated area will be 24 feet of track and disturbed slope for a length
of 75 feet. The sill will run the entire length of the stabilization area but
the remaining area is already included in item ( 6 ) above. The sill and
slope will be stabilized and planted. The area is 1,800 square feet.
(8) The clearing for the residence will minimize tree loss and will be
135 feet wide along the River and 145 feet back from the current
peak of the bluff. This area will be lightly graded to assure a
minimum 1% slope from the peak of the bluff away from the River
(as shown in Dwgs. K-2 & K-3 ) so that all stormwater is disbursed
toward wooded areas ( for maximum absorption ) rather than onto
the sloped banks. Sand fill will be required on the south- corner of
the residence and for 45 feet in front ( landward ) of the house and
driveway turnout. Fill will either be taken from bluff & driveway
grading surplus or clean compatible material will be purchased.
The affected area is 19,575 square feet.

(9) The 412 foot driveway across old Lots 9 thru 6, is shown in both
Dwgs. K-1 and K-1A. The right- of -way (ROW) is 40 feet and
will remain primarily untouched. The driveway profile is shown
in Attach. AA. The roadway is 14 feet wide with 2 foot aprons on
each side for a total graded width of 18 feet. The disturbed
area is 7,416 square feet. The parking and turn radius area is
included in item ( 8) above. Grading will be for the rock base and
stone finish. Surplus topsoil will be used on the aprons with seed
and mulch. Some grading to level will be needed in the area of
Lot 6 where two ridges join. Fill will be balanced so that
stormwater flow to both sides from the crown without the need
for a culvert.
(10) The waste treatment system involves a 1000 gallon tank, lines
and a 21 foot wide by 70 foot long drain field of 3 lines. The
Permit is in Attach. S and all excavation and fill not encompassed
in item 8 is included here. The incremental disturbed area is
1,926 sq. feet. The designated alternate waste treatment site
will not be touched. There is adequate space for the addition of
lines at the treatment site and the future use of an alternate location
is unlikely.
(11) Access to the well point area & drilling disturbance is 700 square feet.
Multiple water source choices are available including a local Castle
Hayne aquifer community well and separate on-site drilling. Lines
will follow the apron of the driveway.
(12) Construction and maintenance of the shoreline stabilization and
breakwater will require a minimum impact access to the shoreline
area by construction equipment. The pathway for access is shown
on Dwg. K-1A. Minimum grading is intended and the pathway will
not be in regular use. Upon completion of work, the pathway will
will be stabilized, seeded or mulched. The pathway will require
the highly selective cutting of up to six or eight trees in the 30 and 75
foot buffer/AEC zones and 4 to 6 more behind the 75 foot area of the
shoreline ( only enough for the equipment path ). The path is 300 feet
from the driveway in the area of old Lot 8 to the shoreline stabilization
and breakwater area. The pathway width is 12 feet. See the Methods
section for construction details. This pathway also establishes access
for any future shoreline stabilization work in the area of old Lots 9 & 10
which is not a part of this Project or planned scope. The pathway will
have some cut and fill of local soil in the area of the slope and bluff on
old Lot 8. All cut and fill will occur well behind the 75 foot AEC. Only
equipment tracks are planned inside the 75' AEC. The disturbed area
is 3, 600 square feet. ( continued )

Property & Residence Development Permitting
(13) The offshore breakwater does not involve excavation except as noted
in item ( 12 ) access. See the Breakwater Section for methodology
and clean rock fill. There is no incremental land disturbance.
( 14) Rock used in the shoreline stabilization will be delivered and temporarily
stored at the driveway entrance in the open ROW area, on the
residential building lot, or along the slope tops of the graded bluffs.
No residue or disposal will be left on site. There is no excavation
incremental excavation or fill involved.
12
(15) The roof area of the gazebo at old Lot 2/3 is shown in Drawing K-1 & K-1A.
The cross section is shown in Attach. F. The gazebo is on pilings but
equipment will disturb the area within the roof line placed between
60 feet and 80 feet behind the shoreline in the 75' AEC. The disturbed area,
beyond the area already covered in item (6) is 324 sq. feet.
The total excavation, fill and disturbance is 1.39 acres or 21% of the Property.
The area of excavation, fill, and/or disturbance for the residence area is 0.7
acres or 10% of the Property (within the 21% above ).
C. Raparian Corridors & Water Wildlife
The Property lies on a shallow and remote area of the Pamlico River
north-east of Blounts Bay. Map K-1 shows depths at mean low water
out to 400 feet. No navigation is observed to this distance as the
offshore area is .76 miles from marked channels used to access Blounts
Bay. Attach. H shows 9/23/04 crab pot lines at 450 feet off shore in
4 feet of water. A duck blind is also at 450 feet. A line between Hills Point
and the entrance to Blounts Bay passes offshore of the Knight Property
at a shore to shore distance of 390 feet and a pier end to pier end distance
of 450 feet. The bottom out to 400 feet is smooth and varies from hard
to soft ( 2-3 inches of mud ). There is no SAV evident out to 400 feet except
a few spots of at-shore SAV's marked on Map K-1& K-1A. In 1999,
NCDENR DCM approved a Major Permit for a low 400 foot boat marina
pier extending from the center of Tract B (see K-1) straight offshore.
This pier was not built.
In conclusion, none of the proposed development on the Knight Property,
including the proposed near-shore breakwater at 50 feet (in 15 inches of
water), potentially affects navigation or riparian corridors. A segmented
breakwater parallel to the shoreline further assures access that is
feasible ( canoes, flounder boats with lights, etc. ). The breakwater adds
to SAV potential and creates nursery habitat and protection; including a
longer (tombolo based) shallow shoreline. Recommendations on
improving the breakwater for these purposes are welcome. See design.

8. Background
13
The Property is characterized by a 30+ foot high forested ridge and bluff which drops
to the Pamlico River and tapers down to Taylor's Gut from a 35 ft. upland plateau.
The back of the property is characterized by a deep natural
ravine and wetland area.
• There are no signs of woodland timber harvest in the past 50 -100 years.
• There are no buildings or construction except for a pre-1947 dirt road.
• The blue line stream and wetland in Taylor's Gut is undisturbed.
• There are no flow-ways or blue line tributaries identified on maps.
The new single Property referred to in this document is a consolidation of multiple
lots and tracts previously surveyed and recorded in 1946 and 1954
(deeds attached ). The original lots 1-10 have subsequently passed in pieces through
several sets of owners/developers with no prior construction.
Access to the Property has historically been an identified dirt road approaching from
the southeast across the clearly identifiable wetland around Taylor's Gut. Only
traces of this road remain and the lower parts have reverted to a woodland floor and
natural area at the Taylor's Gut Estuary. Development in this natural mixed forest
property has not progressed because of access disputes, irregular contours, and
natural storm erosion along 925 feet of Pamlico River frontage. The Property location
is easily identified on NC topological maps and NOAA Charts ( excerpts attached ).
The original owner's intent to create 10 building lots would be infeasible today for a
variety of reasons. References to these lots serve no current purpose other than as a
quick identifier of sub-areas displayed on all existing surveys. Lots 1-5 are
individual Beaufort County tax entities . Lots 6-12 are partially surveyed with marked
boundaries but recorded as a single tract. The current Property and boundaries are
covered in two Deeds; one for Lots 1-5 ( taken together) and one for Lots 6-10. The
current planned development treats Lots 1-10 as a single Property.
While records are limited, a combination of 1947,1954, 1996 & 2003( partial ) surveys;
adjacent land-owner reports; and shoreline cliff conditions indicate an irregular loss
of land to the River of about 50 feet over 50 years. Any development will require
selective shoreline area stabilization and protection against high wind surges &
waves. Observed wind & lunar tidal data correlates directly to current NOAA Chart
notices and NC DENR DWQ data from the Bath entrance Buoy # 5.
Pamlico Bluffs Subdivision lots behind this Property are not affected by
this plan. Owner / buyer agreements provide permanent access to this Property
using Alma Lane at the upland north-west end of the Property. Except for the
roadway to the residence, the old dirt roadway is abandoned. Temporary
construction & maintenance may use the old roadbed access.

9. Adiacent Property
The Property is bounded on the north-east by the Pamlico River. This facing has
a high exposure to winter gales and summer hurricanes.
The Property boundary on the south-east follows the wetland at Taylor's Gut. This
wetland continues south-east beyond Taylor's Gut well into 80 acres owned by
George & Myrna Cadwell ( currently under a sale option ). See Attach.
The Property on the south- west includes large natural areas on Lots 11 & 12 of the
Pamlico Bluffs Subdivision. The Subdivision is naturally partitioned from the
Property by a deep ravine ( 30 feet drop ) and a narrow marked wetland tributary
along the backside of the Property.

The property on the north-west is all right-of-ways for Alma Drive & the Pamlico
Bluffs Subdivision access to the beach area ( Tracts A & B ). This property is
currently owned by Stan & Alma Friedman but the right-of-ways will become a part of
the Pamlico Bluffs Subdivision Home Owners Association. A community pier
400 feet long for 24 boats has previously been approved by NC DENR DCM but
not build. The pier is again proposed and explains in part why no shoreline
facilities are included in the Knight Property Proposal.
The Property is further described by:
1. Deeds & survey composites attached. Attach. C, J, N, O, P, Q
2. A 1993 NC Topological Map & the current NOAA Chart. Attach. H,I &T.
3. A more detailed partial survey & partial topological map taken from a
12/1211996 Rivers Associates Survey of the Pamlico Bluffs Subdivision &
the back areas of Longstreet / Hackney Properties ( now Knight's Property ).
The partial topological survey and boundaries map is owned by S. Friedman and
used for Maps K-1 & K-2 with permission.
4. Surveys named in the Deeds ( Attach P & Q ) correlate to the Rivers Survey
along marked boundaries. However, measurements on the property show
40-50 feet of shoreline erosion since the 1954 McLaurin Survey ( Attach. Q ).
This land loss level is confirmed by George Cadwell for his property SE of
Taylor's Gut.
The adjacent property owners are:
To the Southeast ( See tax map in AttachBB ) : George & Myrna Cadwell
To the Northwest ( See Map K-1 )
Stan & Alma Friedman - the current developers of Pamlico Bluffs and the interim
Homeowner's Association administrators for Tracts A, B, C shown on Map K-1
& K-1A. The Friedman also own Lots 11 & 12 in the Pamlico Bluffs Subdivision.

10. Soil & Erosion Characteristics
See Attach. V for Site Soil Survey.
Soil on the Property is undisturbed except for natural storm surge and wind/water
erosion along the Pamlico River. One spot on one natural ravine displays natural
ravine flow erosion. See Lot 7 93 feet back from the River ( see Attach C, Map K-1 ).
Repair of this point is intended when the equipment pathway to the shoreline
discussed in Section 7, Item (12 ) is used.
Multiple soil sample profiles to 4 feet depth and the forested contours display the
Property's Winton Soil description in the Beaufort County Soil Survey ( with the
exception of the bordering wetland and a blue clay soil layer 6-8' deep at the
shoreline base). In the 1997-1999 period, the Beaufort County Health Dept.
Wastewater Division issued conventional underground wastewater permits for 8 of
the 10 old numbered Lots. On January 5,2005, the best soil (highest sand/clay ratio
and deepest soil penetration with few mottles) location was newly re-selected and a
new underground wastewater field construction permit issued ( Attachment S ) for
the proposed residence. Multiple sites were available with some demonstrating a
higher clay content than the site selected. Any of 3- 4 sites could be used without
sand fill. Clay content increases along the ridge near Alma Lane and along the
shoreline bluffs. There is adequate space for wastewater field expansion without
impacting ravines or wetlands.
Characteristics of the site Winton Soil (WtD) are:
Fine sandy loam. 12 to 25 % slopes. Moderately steep, moderately well drained.
Available water capacity is moderate. Permeability is moderate to low moderate.
Typically forested with mixed hardwoods & pine. Typical perched water table
at 2-4 feet from Dec. to May not observed in samples to 4 feet at elevations of
25-35 feet. Moderately corrosive to steel and concrete. Organic matter.5 - 3 %
Low swell /shrink potential < 3%. Soil Reaction Ph= 3.6-6.0 mod. to extreme acidic.
K= Susceptibility of the soil to sheet and rill erosion by water. Tons per acre
T = Est. of the max. ave. annual erosion rate which will not affect crop productivity.

11. Pamlico River Level & Tides ( Knight Property Area )
This section is included because of the numerous references to
A. Mean high water - MHW D. Normal water level - NWL
B. Mean water level - MWL E. Mean low water - MLW
C. Average water level - AWL G. Mean sea level - MSL
Chapman's and Dutton's "Navigation & Piloting" are the typical references for these
definitions. Neither includes the NWL used by NC DENR.
For this Project, NWL is taken as equal to MWL or AWL and generally judged
in the field by the barnacle level on pilings, etc.
Per NOAA Chart 11554 (Attach I ( i ) ), the Lunar tide is MHW- MLW= 6"
AWL, NWL & MLW are taken as 3" above MLW.
The Washington Bridge datum is 12 " above MSL. River depth is available
on the NC DENR DWQ Website in relation to this datum. The Knight site is
7 miles +/- below the bridge and the datum is generally correct for the site.
Water level and tides at the Knight Property are typical of the upper Pamlico.
Water levels are influenced by :
A. Tar-Pamlico flood levels and can exceed 1 foot for this area with
a 1.75 mile river width. Water tends to be highest in spring/summer.
The 100 year flood level on NC Flood Maps is + 10 feet.
B. Lunar tides vary 6" and are the definition base for MHW & MLW.
C. Wind tides are highly variable due to wind direction and speed.
The River impounds water on N, NE, E & SE winds and exhausts
water on S, SW, W, and particularly NW winds. The wind tide range is
typically 18" to 24" before gales and higher winds are considered.
This tide range is the most variable per NOAA Chart 11554 at +/- 18".
D. Hurricane storm surges typically raise water levels up to 6 feet
in category II hurricanes plus another 4-5 feet to wave peaks.
Maximum water height for 8-9' ( peak-to-trough waves ) is 10-11 feet
plus splash. This sets shoreline stabilization revetment heights at
a minimum of 10-12 feet.
Field soundings on 9/23/04 at 3:30 pm at Track B adjacent to the Knight Site
are taken for reference. The data ranges in Attach U are confirmed by data
from the NC DENR DWQ Buoy 5 monitoring station at the entrance to Bath
( include wind speed, relative water depth on upper & lower sounders, and
wind direction ). Plots are shown in Attach. U. Depths shown on Map K-1
and K-1A are adjusted to MLW for Lunar tide ( - 3" ) and wind tide ( -5" ).
These depths are consistent with MLW & MHW observations on the beach
after discounting for wind and Tar-Pamlico flood levels. They are also
consistent with the prior surveyor datum within 1-2". Lunar tides change the
horizontal waterline distance by 2 to 4 feet depending on location.
Wind tides can routinely change waterline location by +/-10 feet at this
Property due to it NE face and 3 plus mile easterly reach.

12. Structures
This Section lists all structures and built upon areas the Property.
There are no existing structures. All structures listed here are to be added
in this Project. There are no commercial building or activities planned for
the Property. The Property will become a part of the Pamlico Bluffs Subdivision
Homeowners Association.
The structures are:
A. A new single Private Residence behind the 75 foot AEC. See Attach. D & J.
Three levels on ground slab housing a 3 garage basement. Levels 1 & 2 are
3,713 square feet of living area. There are no unattached buildings not
shown. The residence is a single structure of brick and heavy siding with
metal roofing, gutters and downspouts. The roof outline is 77 feet wide
by 60 feet deep as show on Maps K-1, K-1A, and K-2.
The Architect's design is reported as being for high storm wind loads
substantially exceeding Codes. Architectural floor plans are available for
review with the Owner. Floor plans are ready for construction. Additional
residence design information is available as required.
From the naturally wooded property, a building area will be cleared for
construction with a minimum removal of trees and woodland floor. The
clearing will be 135 feet wide by 150 feet back from the current bluff line.
The cleared area above the existing bluffs will be sloped 1degree plus
landward for drainage to woodlands. No point source drains are planned.
The cleared area adjacent to the Pamlico River and inside the 75 foot AEC
is shown in Map K-1A and is dictated by shoreline bluff sloping and
stabilization shown in Cross Section Drawing K-2 and K-3. The front of the
faces toward land. The rear of the house faces toward the Pamlico River.
B. Front Yard Retaining Wall ( Front toward wetland )- An architectural block
or rock wall and fill in front of the house as shown on Map K-1A and cross
section Drawing K-2. This wall is well behind the 75' AEC and 75'+
removed from the landside wetland. The wall will be self draining without
point source discharges. The intent is disbursed storm-water flow over and
through the wall using either polypropylene filter cloth or loose block
filtering. The area between the residence front and the wall will be filled
with clean soil either from the site or purchased. Areas at the front base of
the wall will be re-mulched to natural condition from cleared material.
C. Drivewa - An impervious crushed rock driveway shown on Map K-1A will
proceed across the identified and approved 40 foot natural woodland
easement to the residence. The drive starts as the Alma Lane cul-de-sac
asphalt face and proceed over stable ground to the residence. A vehicle
turnout and 3 garage access is included. The disturbed area is included in
Section 7- Maps. The impervious area calculations are in the Storm-water
Management Plan. The driveway is behind the 75' AEC.

D. A covered observation deck ( gazebo ) on an elevated foundation as
shown in Drawing K-4 in Attach. F. The roof top view for this gazebo is 20
feet by 20 feet. The gazebo is intended as a pleasant and semi-remote
natural observation point overlooking the Pamlico River and Taylor's Gut.
The design is intended to have minimum impact. The gazebo is positioned
at the top of the finished shoreline stabilization and re-seeded slopes near
the top of the existing bluff in the vicinity of the old Lot 2 & 3 line. The
gazebo sits back 50+ feet behind the 50 foot buffer line and inside the 75 foot
AEC. The final position is intended to be at the top and just behind the
tapered bluff slope when finished. It is further positioned to avoid the
natural areas at the base of the stabilized bluff and to be at least 75 feet from
the Taylor's Gut wetland areas. Access to the site will be either along the
cleared portion of the stabilized ridge line in front of the tree line or along the
visible old roadbed shown on the Deed Map in Attach. P.
E. The shoreline rock stabilization will follow the guidelines and dimensions
shown in Drawing K-3 and in the plan view in Map Drawing K-1A. More
detailed dimensions are shown in the multi-scaled vertical and horizontal
views in Attach. CC. Bluff heights immediately behind the shoreline in the
area of old Lots 415 are 18-23 feet behind the waterline. This condition
eliminates the option to use rock sills or other methods of slope protection.
The 6-8 foot layer of soft and wet blue clay at the base of the slopes
essentially eliminates the use of supported vertical walls (with tiebacks ) as
do other factors. The low shoreline between the bluffs and the River will
remain natural over most of the 925 foot shoreline length. The rock
stabilization will follow the line of the cut down bluffs as shown in Map K-1A.
This Project does not intend to stabilize the entire Property shoreline. The
marked areas will be left natural by plan. At the northwest ( next to Tract B )
and southeast ( Taylor's Gut) ends of the property, shoreline erosion has
been less than in central areas of the shoreline. The shoreline outcrop and
traces of submerged aquatic vegetation ( SAV ) near Taylor's Gut are best
indicators of older shorelines along the entire property.
As hurricane events continue to occur, further shoreline stabilization
or back area rock revetments may be required. If and as needed, additions
or variances to this Major Permit will be sought.
A key aspect of shoreline stabilization is the protection of the sloped banks
resulting from shoreline stabilization. Long term matting will be used to
stabilize and protect the steeper slopes. At minimum slopes of 2:1,
permanent matting is recommended by North American Green for the soil
conditions stated in Section 9 above. For minimum slopes of 3:1, double
net protected excelsior matting may be used. Further detail is included in
the Soil Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plan for this Project.

F. Near Shore Segmented Breakwater ( 36 foot rock & water segments
While common in other areas, segmented breakwaters are not common
on the upper Pamlico River. Several examples do exist on Pamlico Sound
in Hyde County and numerous successful examples are offered in Attach. W
references. On the south side of the Pamlico River near the Knight
Property, there are a number of examples of groins extending outward
from vertical shoreline walls and rock revetments in areas including Hills
Point 2 miles north of the Knight Property. These groins have been
successful in building sand on the northwest ( or up-river ) side of the
groins. Groins are not preferred in this application because of the uneven
shoreline sand development and the remoteness of the location to primary
offshore water flow. A potential conflict also exists with any rebuilding of
the SAV fragments noted on Map K-1.
The prevailing winds at the Property site, particularly in summer, are from
the southwest. Neither groins or breakwaters offer a contribution in these
wind conditions. These winds do not threaten the Property shoreline.
The on-shore waves typical of north-east winds blowing across a 3+ mile
reach do impact the Property. On these winds, groins offer little protection
against scouring. A breakwater offers some shoreline protection and
a segmented breakwater offers the environment for rebuilding shoreline
and SAV.
There are several indicators which point to the successful application of a
segmented breakwater in front of a portion of the Knight Property.
(1). Historical shoreline erosion suggests additional protection where
feasible. A segmented breakwater 50 feet offshore is close to the
natural shoreline at the time of the 1954 Survey in Attach. P. A
50 foot offshore distance is minimum for tombolo development.
(2). Small sand tombolos are noted behind the remaining SAV
fragments near Taylor's Gut. SAV's should naturally re-develop
with frontal wave protection against north-east winds and on-shore
wave action.
(3). Shoreline sand development should provide added scour protection
of the rock stabilization and dry access to rocked areas for long
term maintenance.
(4). Water depths at 50 feet offshore appear ideal for shallow water
gabion basket breakwaters. Breakwater height will be 3 feet in
a typical water depth of 15 inches. Plastic coated gabion baskets
will typically have long lives in the low salinity water ( 7-10 parts
per thousand or 2% +/- of seawater) in the Property area.
While a breakwater structure is an attractive option for the Property, the Property
owner does not wish to delay overall Permit approval because of issues surrounding
breakwater installation. If the following breakwater design cannot be approved within
normal review cycles, this structure should be excluded from this Permit process.

Design calculation in Attach. W uses the model and design rules in Ref. (a).
The relation between breakwater segment length and off shore distance is
taken from Ref. (b) and NC DENR suggestions.
The calculations show that breakwater segments of 36 feet or 48 feet are
practical for gabion breakwaters and optimal offshore sand development.
These lengths take into account the availability of gabion baskets is 4 element
sections of 12 feet each ( Qty 4 - 3'x3'x3' elements ).
Given a maximum offshore distance of 50 feet, 36 foot or smaller segments
provide the best tombolo buildup out to a theoretical 32 foot addition in
shoreline width. A graphical representation is shown in Attach.
A practical result of 50% of this prediction would greatly
assist in shoreline dry land access to shore stabilization rock for maintenance.
On further review of Ref. (c), it happens that independent work has reached a
similar conclusion and that the photographic example on sheet W10 is a
segmented gabion breakwater of 36 foot alternating open & rocked sections.
Tombolo buildup is noted. Similar open rock breakwater segments on
sheets W11 & W12 confirm tombolo potential on both open shoreline and in
near-shore placement in front of rock revetments.
Map K-1A reflect the conclusions from the above analysis.
The total breakwater length is 324 feet made up of 4 open water gaps and
5 gabion basket segments. Both water and basket segments are 36 feet each.
See Attach. CC for expected sand tombolo development.
By reference here, acceptance for the following plan for breakwater
development is requested:
(1) As an option, two 36 foot rock segments with one 36 foot opening is enough
length to demonstrate tombolo development ( all segments( rock plus water)
length greater than the offshore distance of 50' ) and to provide sand and SAV
buildup in front of the portion of shoreline stabilization rock that initially
extends into the water in front of old Lots 4 & 5. The owner may select a sub-
option, within the Permit, to implement the 324 foot length in two time steps.
(2) Gabion baskets are being used to contain rock as a single 1,200 pound
rock mass per 3'x3'x3' single basket. This weight is expected to support
hurricane conditions. With a demonstrated tombolo performance and an
acceptable Permit variance, sloped 2:1 open rock facings may be added to
the breakwater.

Construction Sequence & Methods
The sequence of construction is as follows:
A. Obtain approval for the Major Permit and associated NC Stormwater an
Soil Erosion & Sedimentation Control Permits. Provide access to these
Permits to involved architects, engineers, and contractors after approval.
These documents are public records. However, distribution should be
limited to those having direct involvement so that content is not taken out
of participatory context.
A Construction Project Manager and on-scene coordinator should be
assigned and contractors advised.
B. The driveway to the area of the house will be cut, graded and immediately
covered with subsurface ABC rock to control upland erosion. Surface
water disposal will be predominantly through absorption and some
surface runoff into wooded areas. All surface water will pass over or through at
least 100 feet of undisturbed Winton topsoil before reaching any stream. Silt
fences will be used below fill areas and as needed on slopes to prevent runoff.
Per Section 10, Winton Soil has a moderately high permeability and ground
absorption of most storm-water is expected.
C. The house building area, the wastewater field and the front 20-30 feet behind the
bluffs will be cut and cleared. Logs and stumps from the top of the bluffs will be
removed from the site. These areas will be minimally disturbed .
Dead storm trash washed up on beaches will be cut and burned on the beach in
clearings which will not damaging vegetation. All stumps will be left in areas
below the bluffs. No stumps are to be removed in the 30 foot riparian buffer.
D. Silt fences will be installed high in drainage ravines below the residence site.
E. Over a maximum distance of 450 feet, the front sides of the high bluffs
will be cut down and the excavated soil used as fill behind the lower
slope where rock will be applied. A minimum slope of 2:1 ( Max. angle of 26.5
degrees ) from the base of the bluff to the final grade at the bluff top will be used.
Polypropylene cloth backing for the rock revetment will be put in place and
covered with layered Class II granite or equal density rock. See drawing K- 3 for a
full description.
The order of construction will be to cut and fill the highest bluffs and northwest
end first and the southeast end of the property last. Excavation will be in sections
with stabilization rock applied before the next section is done.
The excavation and stabilization of the highest bluffs first works because the
lower bluff slopes can be reached from the top and graded slopes will be lower
and more accessible to equipment in the old Lot 2 area.
The final cost of rock stabilization can be best controlled by assuring that critical

Property & Residence Development Permitting 23
shoreline areas at old Lots 5,4,and 3 are done first. The 100 feet of Lot 2, while
desirable to protect, offers and area of optional cost control.
F. Multiple contractors are interested in high bluff bank grading and shoreline
stabilization work. One of two different methods will be employed depending on
the contractor and equipment. Both of the 2 methods are routinely used.
Method 1 uses a single excavator to cut a flat equipment sill 12 feet wide from
the driveway area along the bluff at the 15 to 20 foot level. Soil excavated to make
the equipment sill is partially compacted at the base of the bluff with the
remainder temporarily stored at the top of the bluff. Rock is moved into place by
picking it up in the driveway or residence area where it is offloaded and placing it
over the lower slope below the sill. Excavator compaction must be used
to assure a stable bank base. Filter cloth and rock are then applied to height
( in this case 10-12 feet). When the extent of the cut and fill is complete, the
upper bank is graded and the sill filled and packed. An alternate, not shown in
drawings due to limited horizontal space is to leave the sill as a permanent
maintenance access by cutting and filling the upper and lower slopes such that
the equipment sill becomes a part of a permanently stepped bank supporting
maintenance, slope safety, human & equipment access and an erosion control.
With a single slope over diagonal slope distance of 50 feet, a stronger matting and
more permanent matting is needed to assure bank erosion stability.
Method 2 uses two excavators, one on top of the bluff and one at the bottom.
Working together, the soil is sloped downward and compacted. No sill is used.
For a 12 foot rock revetment, rock is brought to the base of the sloped bluff
using a front end loader hauling many loads of rock over the pathway shown in
Map K1-A from the driveway area to the base of the bluffs. Since the lower
shoreline is essentially baron at the shoreline base, no trees, stumps or foliage
are lost in this method and equipment tracks can be repaired. In this method,
rock would be placed in the order of the Lot 3 area back to the old Lot 6 area.
Stabilization of the bluffs in the old Lot 2 area can be done from the top of banks
in any order for cost control.
Contractors being considered have extensive experience in shoreline rock
stabilization and have established reputations for completing contracted work
in a timely manner. Project shoreline stabilization, bluff grading, seeding and
matting is expected to take between 5 & 8 weeks.
Contractor flexibility is retained if NC DENR DCM approves either method
with the condition that only experienced bluff contractors will be retained.
G. Rock pre-staging will be used in any shoreline construction method. Rock
will be brought onto the site using both NC State & Private paved Roads
designed to NC DOT I(i)2 standards. NC DOT approval must be obtained by
the contractor for routing and haul weights. Pre-checks with NC DOT are
positive for a preferred rock hauling route. Rock will be deposited either

Property & Residence Development Permitting
in the area southeast of the Alma Lane cul-de-sac or in the area of the
residence along the ridge peak. Rock transportation to the shoreline will
be done by construction equipment. Highway type trucks will not access
the lower shore line area in any installation method.
H. Before bluff grading, silt fences will be placed in front of the bluffs
including up to 10 feet in shallow water ( 6-8") as needed to control
erosion. After rock & filter cloth placement, silt fences will be placed
above the top rock layer unless mat material is ready to install.
1. The summer of 2005 is the likely construction period for shoreline
armoring. Due to an approaching hurricane season and the extent of soil
exposure, the shoreline stabilization will proceed ahead of the installation
of the segmented in-shore breakwater.
J. As sections of the bluffs are cut and graded , surface water runoff will be
controlled either by silt fence installation at the top of the shoreline rock
revetments or by covering exposed and seeded slopes with stabilization
matting or both. See notes on Drawing K-3 for stabilizing mat on 2:1 slopes
K. Shoreline stabilization and bluff bank grading and stabilization will be
completed before residence construction begins. Following completion
of shoreline work, electrical, and water lines will be run to the property
either below or adjacent to the driveway bed.
The utility access will be covered and returned to a natural state.
L. Septic wastewater field installation and home construction will follow
normal construction and NC Code practices. Although a Beaufort
County wastewater operating permit is already issued, final excavation
requires a follow-up field visit. All home construction and wastewater
installation will occur behind the 75' Pamlico River AEC. Only final yard
grading will partially occur inside the 75' AEC.
M. A gazebo design is attached. This sub-project is light construction
using a pole foundation design well above the 100 year flood plan. This
construction requires completion and stabilization of the lower site bluffs
at or near the old Lot 213 line. Pilings and frame construction can occur
during or after completion of the home. Roofing may best be completed
at the same time as home roofing or later by the same contractor.

Property & Residence Development Permitting 25
N. Breakwater installation will require an equipment pathway to the shoreline
area from the driveway. This same pathway will be used as needed for wall
and shoreline maintenance. The placement of impervious material on the
shoreline pathway is not intended. Use of the pathway will be followed by
cleanup and erosion stabilization.
Breakwater installation will proceed after shoreline stabilization and
residence construction since a summer contract for shoreline stabilization
will require prompt bank stabilization ahead of any hurricane season uncertainty.
The breakwater will require a temporary 12 foot wide road from the driveway ( in
the area of old Lot 8 ) down to the flat shoreline in the area of old Lot 5. Due to
the very shallow water, installation from the land is intended. Baskets will be
pre- assembled and placed on the bottom on woven filter cloth in steps. A full
36 foot section will be pre-laced before fill. Each section will filled and
completed before other segments are started. Class I rock will be carefully
placed baskets closed to Macafferi installation specifications.
Wooden equipment mats will be used for water access to the baskets where
required by NC DENR DCM.
0. The front yard earth retaining wall will be constructed following exterior
residence completion and in conjunction with driveway completion for
the three car garage and vehicle turnout area.
P. A top one inch of #57 or equal stone finish will be placed on the re-leveled and
center-tapered driveway. See finish profile in Attach. AA.

CERTIFIED MAIL: RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED
Robert David and Janet Taylor Knight
207 Matterhorn Trail
Moncure, NC, 27559
REQUEST FOR MORE INFORMATION
Dear Mr. and Mr. Knight:
On March 28, 2005, the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) received your application to impact up to 0.06 acre of
river bottom to construct a rip-rap sill in the Pamlico River in order to stabilize the shoreline and slope a lot for a
single family home. The DWQ has determined that your application was incomplete and/or provided inaccurate
information as discussed below. The DWQ will require additional information in order to process your application
to impact the Pamlico River. Therefore, unless we receive the additional information requested below, we will have
to move toward denial of your application as required by 15A NCAC 2H .0506 and will place this project on hold as
incomplete until we receive this additional information. Please provide the following information so that we may
continue to review your project.
Additional Information Requested:
1. Impact justification
Please provide compelling evidence of the need for placement of an offshore rip-rap sill in the Pamlico River,
given that the shoreline is already rip-rapped.
2. SAV survey
Please provide a site map indicating where Submerged Aquatic Vegetation occurs within the project area, to
be based upon a field survey for Submerged Aquatic Vegetation. This survey also needs to include field
verification of the water depths discussed in your application.
Please respond within three weeks of the date of this letter by sending two copies of this information to me in
writing. If we do not hear from you within three weeks, we will assume that you no longer want to pursue this
project and we will consider the project as withdrawn.
This letter only addresses the application review and does not authorize any impacts to wetlands, waters or protected
buffers. Please be aware that any impacts requested within your application are not authorized (at this time) by the
DWQ. Please call Tom Steffens in the DWQ Washington Regional Office at 252-946-6481 or me at 919-733-1786
if you have any questions regarding or would like to set up a meeting to discuss this matter.
Sincerely,
It g4

MAY 1 7 2005
DENR - WATER QUALITY
V0=3 AND STORMWATER BRA14CH
Reference the revised application of Robert and Janet Knight for a Department of the Army
permit to place riprap material along an eroding shoreline, on property located off State Road
1119, adjacent to the Pamlico River, in the Pamlico Bluffs Subdivision, near the Town of
Chocowinity, in Beaufort 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:
1. All work authorized by this permit must be performed in strict compliance with the
attached plans, which are a part of this permit. Any modification to these plans must be approved
by the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) prior to implementation. The proposed offshore
breakwater was deleted from this project at the applicant's request.
2. The permittee understands and agrees that, if future operations by the United States
require the removal, relocation, or other alteration, of the structure or work herein authorized, or
if, in the opinion of the Secretary of the Army or his authorized representative, said structure or
work shall cause unreasonable obstruction to the free navigation of the navigable waters, the
permittee will be required, upon due notice from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, to remove,
relocate, or alter the structural work or obstructions caused thereby, without expense to the
United States. No claim shall be made against the United States on account of any such removal,
relocation, or alteration. The permittee shall notify NOAA/NATIONAL OCEAN SERVICE
Chief Source Data Unit N CS261, 1315 E West HWY- RM 7316, Silver Spring, MD 20910-
3282 at least two weeks prior to beginning work and upon completion of work.
