The licensee wishes to grant an easement across 0_63 acres of project property. The bridge will allow public aGCess to a proposed development on Fieronwood Island, on Lake Norman. The filing included letters of consultation and permits fron the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, North Carolina Department of Natural Resources, North Carolina Department of Cultural Resources, and the Lake Norman Marine Commission; no objections to the bridge easement were stated. The North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission conditioned its approval to require that adequate erosion control measures roust be taken during construction and that the bridge be adequately narked for boating safety. The North Carolina Department of Human Services cowrmented that the construction should be conducted so as not to contravene water quality standards. Iredell County's approval of the project requires that the bridge allow boat traffic to pass under at least 1/3 of is span and be at least 12 feet above full pond elevation- These conditions should be adequate to ensure that water quality and other environmental values are maintained. The licensee should take steps adequate to ensure that the grantee provides and maintains, adequate markings (i.e. lights, clearance signs) to ensure the safety of recreation boaters in the reservoir. No details of the plan to provide safety war-kings on the bridge were provided in the filing, so no determination of the adequacy of the markings could be made. The grantee should be required to submit plans for safety markings on the bridge for Commission approval prior to construction to ensure boater safety. Copies of the instruments of conveyance have been included which contain the necessary covenants required.by the Commission. The easement and bridge construction as proposed should not effect project operations, will not conflict with the: recreational uses of the project, and environmental impacts, including those to water quality, should be minor and temporary.

(e) The licensees shall include in the instrunentes of conveyance a condition that precludes construction of the bridge until a safety plan is approved by the Commission.

(C) This order is lseued under the authority delegated to the Director pursuant to Mection 375.314 of the Commission's regulations. S+-ction 385.1902 of the COwn.issLan's regulations provides 30 days from the date of this order for appeal to the Commission of this action.
