Dear Mr. Dorney:

Enclosed is the application of Mr. Paul Sorko-Ram for Department of the
Army authorization and a State Water Quality Certification to construct a
bulkhead, boatramp, pier, and boathouse, located near Cotton Patch Landing,
adjacent Blounts Creek, Beaufort 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
10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act, and we have determined that a water quality
certification may be required by your Department. 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 March 23, 1995, the District Engineer will deem that
waiver has occurred.

8. PROJECT SUMMARY: The applicant is proposing to construct a bulkhead, pier with attached

PAUL SORKO-RAM
Beaufort County
Environmental setting
The applicant owns a 171.7 acre tract of land adjacent to Blounts Creek and Little Creek
off of SR 1115 near Cotten Patch Landing in Beaufort County. The elevation of the property
varies from 0' to ±25' above the NWL, and it is vegetated mainly with mixed hardwoods and
pines. Wetland vegetation, both coastal wetlands (marsh) and wooded swamp, enter the property
along several unnamed guts off of Blounts Creek. Much of the shoreline near the NWL is
vegetated with pines and myrtles and a few clumps of Juncus roemerianus. One natural feature
to the property is a peninsula which has been historically connected to the reminder of the
property by a ± 12' wide mixed wetland, highground area. The DCM issued Major
Development Permit No. 108-94 to Mr. Sorko-Ram to upgrade the connection so that the area
can be transversed by vehicle. This project has now been completed. Also ongoing on the
property are various road construction projects. These have approved sedimentation and erosion
control plans from the DLR. Also existing on the north end of the peninsula is a pier with a T-
shaped platform at the waterward end.
Project proposal
The applicant is proposing the following:
(1) The construction of a guest house on the peninsula and a main house on the
mainland portion of the property. The two dwellings will be served by a septic
tank sewage disposal system. See attached letters from the Beaufort County
Health Department.
(2) To continue to develop the road system to the two dwellings.
(3) The construction of 860' of bulkhead around the peninsula. The bulkhead will
average 3.19' beyond the NWL and will be 9.0' at the furthest point. The
bulkhead will be backfilled with material from an upland source.
(4) The construction of a 60' long by 5' wide access pier attached to which will be
a 32' long by 24' 6" opensided boathouse on its south sid-. This structure will
be constructed on the north side of the peninsula in Little Creek, a tributary of
Blounts Creek.
(5) The construction of a 25' long by 20' wide concrete boatramp. The ramp will
be placed on the east side of the causeway leading to the peninsula in Blounts
Creek. Site preparation will occur prior to the placement of the ramp by the
excavation of a 30' long by 20' wide area to obtain proper sloping and to obtain
a 3.0' water depth at the waterward end of the ramp.

Environmental impact
If the project is conducted as proposed, the following environmental impacts will occur:
(1) ±2,743.3 sq. ft. open water area landward of the proposed bulkhead will be
filled.
(2) ±600 sq. ft. of area beyond the NWL of Blounts Creek will be excavated to
obtain proper sloping of the boatramp.
(3) ±1,237.2 sq. ft. of open water area will be covered by piers and boathouse.
(4) Some short term turbidity will exist during project construction.
(5) No wetland vegetation will be excavated or filled.

Mr. David Gossett

Washington, NC 27889
Dear Mr. Gossett:
I am the owner of a tract of land consisting of 171 acres that is
located in Beaufort County, North Carolina on Blounts Creek. I am
building a guest house and a main house for personal use.
My project consists of building a guest house, the main house,
upgrading existing woods roads, building a small bridge or a causeway
from the main land to a peninsula, installing bulkhead around the
peninsula to stop the erosion, build a boat dock, boathouse, and a boat
ramp. _The guest house will be built on the peninsula and the main
house will be located on the mainland.
I have filed for and received the following permits. (a) Soil control
erosion permit; (b) CAMA major permit No. 108-94 to upgrade an old road
leading to my peninsula. This permits consists of building retaining
walls and a small bridge; (3) a general permit No. 12370, for the
erection of a pier, dock and boathouse.
I have already installed the pier and dock but after looking over the
area where the boathouse was to be erected I felt that it would block
the view of the natural beauty of the surrounding area. Because my
property extend around and up Little Creek which is dead ended and not
navigated extensively, I feel that it would be in everyone's best
interest to change the location of the boathouse and put it on the west
side of my peninsula were it would be out of the way and basically out
of sight. It is my proposal to build a 24-foot by 32-foot boathouse
with a 60-foot access dock. This 60-foot dock will allow me to get to
water that is 3-foot deep at normal water tide. (Note detail drawing.)
I am also proposing to install bulkheading around the peninsula to stop
the erosion that is taking place. I also propose.to install a 20-foot
wide by 30-foot long boat ramp off of the mainland. This ramp will
require a small amount of sand removal from the creek bottom in order
to get a four-foot depth. The depth now is two-foot at normal water
level.
I want to thank you for your assistance in this matter and await your
response.
