9. NARRATIVE DESCRIPTION:
Project Setting
Sportsman's Pier, Inc. with David G. Bradley serving as President, owns
approximately .70 acres adjacent to the Atlantic Ocean at 500 Money Island Drive in
the Town of Atlantic Beach, Carteret County. The site is characterized by an
approximately 1,000'-long by 20'-wide ocean fishing pier, an attached flat-roofed
pierhouse with tackleshop and cafe, and a graveled and paved parking lot.
Immediately to the west is a 20'-wide public beach access owned by the Town and to
the east is a private beach cottage. Approximately 900' down the beach to the east is
the similar length Oceanna Fishing Pier.
The high ground portion of the property is bulkheaded and/or rocked along the
270' width and is consumed by the parking lot. The bulkhead approximates the
location of the first line of stable vegetation and the pier building and fishing pier are
located seaward of the bulkhead. Both structures existed on the property prior to
LAMA. In the past, the USACOE has conducted several beach renourishment projects
in the area. Although some vegetation has been planted or has naturally volunteered in
the area seaward of the bulkhead, it is not considered stable. The shoreline erosion
rate in the vicinity is approximately 2' per year. The pier building is located over the
beach and is within the Ocean Erodible and High Hazard Flood Areas within the Ocean
Hazard AEC. The fishing pier is located partly over the beach and is also within the
Ocean Erodible and High Hazard Flood Areas of the Ocean Hazard AEC. The fishing
pier is also located partly below the mean low water line of the Atlantic Ocean, thus is
within the Estuarine Waters and Public Trust Area AECs. The existing water depth at
the waterward end of the pier is approximately 14' and with the proposed extension
according to the applicant would remain at approximately 14'.
A CAMA Major Permit (#26-86) was issued to the applicant back in 1986
authorizing the applicant to reconstruct approximately 250' of the pier that was
destroyed during a storm. This project was completed. In 1989, the applicant applied
for a CAMA Minor Permit to expand an existing catwalk around the pierhouse to a
width of no more than eight feet and was denied. After an appeal to the Coastal
Resources Commission, it was ruled that widening the deck from four feet to eight feet
did not constitute development as defined by LAMA, and the work was completed. In
1992 a CAMA Minor Permit Application for the construction of a deck and gazebo on
top of the pierhouse was applied for and was denied for its inconsistency with the use
standards for the Ocean Hazard AEC.

Project Description
The applicant proposes to extend the Sportsman's Pier farther out into the
Atlantic Ocean and past the "mud line" by adding a 40' section and a 150' by 20' "T"
at the waterward end of the existing 1000' pier. In addition, the applicant proposes to
build an uncovered 50' by 40' deck on top of the nonconforming existing
pierhouse/tackleshop/cafe. The deck will have 42" high benches constructed around
the perimeter.
Anticipated Impacts
The extension of the pier as proposed would result in the coverage of 4,200 fe of
Estuarine Waters and Public Trust Areas of the Atlantic Ocean. The driving of the
pilings would result in construction-related increases in turbidity. The 150'-wide "T"
may pose a navigational hazard to boaters as well as to the surfing interest in the area.
In addition, the extension of the pier and the construction of the 150'-wide platform
would probably cause additional "buffer" areas to be created around the pier. This
additional buffer could potentially impact boaters, fishermen, surfers and swimmers in
the area near the pier. As proposed the construction of the 50' by 40' deck would not
increase the footprint of the nonconforming structure but would provide an additional
2,000 ftz of decking for the public/customers to eat/drink and view the ocean.
