NOTICE OF FILING OF
APPLICATION FOR CAMA MAJOR DEVELOPMENT
PERMIT AND WATER QUALITY CERTIFICATION
The Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources hereby gives public
notice as required by NCGS 113A-119(b) and 143-215 3(a)(1)(c) that Roger Eller of Onslow
County, filed an application on April 25, 1994, 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 the applicant proposes to build a new bulkhead along
same alignment as existing bulkhead, also proposes to backfill wetland area behind existing
bulkhead at the end of Bell Point Lane off of State Road 1523, Sneads Ferry, in Onslow
County.
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 Environment, Health and Natural Resources, Division of Coastal
Management, and Division of Environmental Management, located at 127 Cardinal Drive
Extension, Wilmington, North Carolina 28405, 919/395-3900.
The Division of Environmental Management proposes to take final action on this
water quality certification on or before June 13, 1994. 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
June 7, 1994 for consideration in the CAMA permit decision, and to Mr. John Dorney,
Division of Environmental Management, P.O. Box 27687, Raleigh, N.C., 27611, prior to
June 2, 1994 for consideration in the water quality certification decision. Later comments on
the CAMA application will be accepted and considered up to the time of permit decision.
Project modifications may occur based on review and comment by the public and state and
federal agencies. Notice of the permit decision in this matter will be provided upon request.

9. PROTECT DESCRIPTION
The property is located at the end of Bell Point Lane off State Road 1523 in Sneads Ferry, NC. It is
approximately 0.15 miles southwest of Swan Point in the northeast sector of Chadwick Bay. The property is
a 0.29 acre corner lot bordered on it's south side by Chadwick Bay and on it's west side by a 60 ft wide man-
made channel. It is located in a residential community and although there is no house presently on the lot,
it does contain a pumphouse and septic system. The waters adjacent to the property are classified as SA waters
which are also open to the taking of shellfish. It is not a primary nursery area.
The applicant proposes to replace a poorly functioning existing bulkhead with a new bulkhead in the
same alignment. The existing bulkhead extends the length of the waterfront with 96.46 ft facing Chadwick Bay
and 98.33 ft facing the man-made channel. However, possibly due to wash-outs and neglect, wetlands have
developed behind the existing bulkhead creating a wetland delineation line ranging approximately 3 to 25 feet
landward of the existing bulkhead.
A CAMA representative established the wetland delineation line (see attached map) during a site visit.
A bulkhead constructed along that line or landward of that line would have been permittable under General
Permit 07H .1200.
The wetland species recognized by Coastal Management occurring behind the existing bulkhead include
SSpartina alterniflora, artina patens, Salicornia =. and Limonium W. Corps species noted were Juncus sue.
( other than Juncus roemerianus, probably Juncus ffucus and Borrichia frutescens.
Of the coastal plant species present, Spartina patens was the only species of which there was a
significant quantity beyond 6 to 10 ft. landward of the existing bulkhead. It was in an area of slightly higher
elevation and mixed in with several other high ground species. The absence of other coastal species, the
absence of crab holes, the waterward establishment of the wrack line, the higher elevation and the presence
of other high ground species are all factors that suggest that the more landward area of the Spartina patens
probably does not represent a functioning wetland.
10. ANTICIPATED EMPACTS
The proposed project would incorporate approximately 1863 sq. ft. of coastal wetlands. A new bulkhead
would improve the existing situation where runoff currently flows through the poorly functioning bulkhead
directly into the bay and channel. The applicant anticipates the project requiring approximately 60 cubic yards
of backfill material with 8 cubic yards to be placed below mean high water.

Narrative
The scope of the project is to remove a badly weathered
fiberglass bulkhead and replace it with a new wood
bulkhead in the same location. The site is located in
Sneads Ferry, North Carolina, Onslow County. The site
is mostly vacant except a pump house and an exiting septic
system (see attached map). The soil is mapped as a wando,
a fine sand. The vegetation on the lot consist of mostly
centipede grass and spartina patens on the water side of
the LAMA boundary. The disposal of the existing bulkhead
will be hauled off and taken to the proper location. Due
to the low elevations of the existing bulkhead the high
tide and southwest winds wash over the bulkhead. Bringing
the proposed elevation of the bulkhead to 3.5 should solve
the problem of overwash and spray, stabilizing the upland
erosion.

Dear Mr. Dorney:

Enclosed is the application of Mr. J. Thomas Meadows and Ms. Courtney
Meadows for Department of the Army authorization and a State Water Quality
Certification to construct and backfill a bulkhead and backfill an existing
bulkhead on Fullard Creek, Chadwick Bay, Sneads Ferry, Onslow County, North
Carolina. Your receipt of this letter verifies your acceptance of a valid
request for certification in accordance with Section 325.2(b)(ii) of our
administrative regulations.
We are considering authorizing the proposed activity pursuant to Section
404 of the Clean Water Act, and we have determined that a water quality
certification is required under the provisions of Section 401 of the same law.
A Department of the Army permit will not be granted until the certification
has been obtained or waived.
In accordance with our administrative regulations, in most cases, 60 days
after receipt of a request for certification is a reasonable time for State
action. Therefore, if you have not acted on the request, or asked for an
extension of time, by July 19, 1994, the District Engineer will deem that
waiver has occurred.
Questions or comments may be addressed to Mr. Jeff Richter, Wilmington

Dear Mr. Eller:
The Division of Coastal Management hereby acknowledges receipt of your application for State approval for
development of your property located at the end of Bell Point Lane off SR 1523. It was received on March 31, 1994,
but was not adequate for processing due to the need for more information which was requested by letter. On May 9,
1994, the additional information was received and the application appears to be adequate for processing.The projected
deadline for making a decision is July 22,1994. An additional 75-day review period is provided by law when such time
is necessary to complete the review. If you have not been notified of a final action by the initial deadline stated above,
you should consider the review period extended. Under those circumstances, this letter will serve as your notice of an
extended review. However, an additional letter will be provided on or about the 75th day.
NCGS 113A-119(b) requires that Notice of an application be posted at the location of the proposed development.
Enclosed you will find a "Notice of Permit Filing" postcard which must be posted at the property of your proposed
development. You should post this notice at a conspicuous point along your property where it can be observed from a
public road. Some examples would be: Nailing the notice card to a telephone pole or tree along the road right-of-way
fronting your property; or at a point along the road right-of-way where a private road would lead one into your property.
Failure to post this notice could result in an incomplete application.
A field report has been prepared and is in the process of being circulated to the various state and federal review
agencies for their comments. If additional information is required based on this review, the agencies may contact you
directly.
Sincerely,
Jerry A. Parker
