dock 204' long by 6' de. The deck and the floating dock are to connected by an
adjustable ramp. The k is being proposed as an "attraction and convenience" for

Only a portion of the shoreline f the lot is bulkheaded. The undeveloped portion is vegetated
with Soartina alterniflora, approximately 4-6' wide by 85'long on one side of the bulkhead and
6' wide by 16' long on the othe side. Under the applicant's proposal this coastal marsh fringe
will remain undisturbed. I
The waters in proximity to thGift Shop are designated as Primary Nursery Areas by the
Division Of Marine Fisheries. is area is not open to shellfishing. The waters are classified
as SC by the Division of Environmental Management.
The water depths in the area here the dock is proposed are 2.5' mlw and 4.5' at mhw.
Soundings are shown on the sit plan. The project should pose no threat to navigation since it
appears to meet the 1/3 rule an is several thousand feet from a federally-maintained channel.
The applicant proposes to cons ct a wooden deck 10' wide by approximately 80' long landward
and over the top of the existi g bulkhead and concrete cap. This wooden deck is to be
connected to the proposed floati g dock by an adjustable wooden ramp. The dimensions of the
floating dock as proposed are 6 wide by 204' long. The applicant states in the application that
this dock will serve as a tempor tie-up for 10 or less small, open boats. Approximately 1300
square feet of public trust wa?er would be occupied by the ramp and floating dock. An
additional 80-100 square feet o upland area would be covered by the proposed deck.
ANTICIPATED IMPACTS
The construction and jetting-in f pilings for the deck and floating dock will likely result in a
short term increase in turbidity f the adjoining waters. As previously stated, about 1300 square
feet of public trust waters will be covered. The wooden deck will likely increase the amount
of runoff into the sound.

8. PROJECT SUMMARY The applicant proposes to construct a wooden deck over top
of and landward of an exi ting concrete cap over a bulkhead. Also proposed is a floating
dock 204' long by 6' wi e. The deck and the floating dock are to connected by an
adjustable ramp. The d k is being proposed as an "attraction and convenience" for
patrons of the Topsail Isl d Trading Company Gift Shop.

ITE DESCRIPTION
Topsail Island Trading Company is a gift shop located off of Highway 210 in Surf City. The
backside of the property borders Stump Sound which is connected to the Atlantic Intercoastal
Waterway by a man-made canal The applicant, Mr. Gary Sunderland, is an architect and is
acting as agent for Donald and Jean Luther, owners of Topsail Island Trading Company.
Currently existing on the property is the gift shop, paved parking lot, brick barbecue and picnic
area, and an approximately 80' 1 ng bulkhead with a 5' wide concrete apron attached along the
top.
i
Only a portion of the shoreline the lot is bulkheaded. The undeveloped portion is vegetated
with Syartina alterniflora, approximately 4-6' wide by 85'long on one side of the bulkhead and
6' wide by 16' long on the other side. Under the applicant's proposal this coastal marsh fringe
will remain undisturbed.
The waters in proximity to the l Gift Shop are designated as Primary Nursery Areas by the
Division Of Marine Fisheries. is area is not open to shellfishing. The waters are classified
as SC by the Division of Enviro mental Management.
The water depths in the area 4here the dock is proposed are 2.5' mlw and 4.5' at mhw.
Soundings are shown on the sitejplan. The project should pose no threat to navigation since it
appears to meet the 1/3 rule and; is several thousand feet from a federally-maintained channel.
The applicant proposes to cons ct a wooden deck 10' wide by approximately 80' long landward
and over the top of the existi g bulkhead and concrete cap. This wooden deck is to be
connected to the proposed floating dock by an adjustable wooden ramp. The dimensions of the
floating dock as proposed are 6' wide by 204' long. The applicant states in the application that
this dock will serve as a tempo tie-up for 10 or less small, open boats. Approximately 1300
square feet of public trust wat r would be occupied by the ramp and floating dock. An
additional 80-100 square feet of upland area would be covered by the proposed deck.
ANTICIPATED IMPACTS
The construction and jetting-in f pilings for the deck and floating dock will likely result in a
short term increase in turbidity o the adjoining waters. As previously stated, about 1300 square
feet of public trust waters will a covered. The wooden deck will likely increase the amount
of runoff into the sound.
