Dear Ms. Shipman:
I am making application for a permit with the U.S. Department of the Army, Corps of Engineers, Savannah District. I
understand that the issuance of such a permit will not relieve me of the obligation to obtain authorization from the State of Georgia
since the proposed project would constitute an encroachment on the beds of tidewaters which are State-owned property. Accordingly,
I hereby request that I be granted a revocable license from the State of Georgia. Attached hereto and made a part of this request is a
copy of the plans and description of the project that will be the subject of such a license.
I understand that if permission from the State is granted, it will be a revocable license and will not constitute a license
coupled with an interest. I further acknowledge that such a license would relate only to the property interests of the State and would
not obviate the necessity of obtaining any other State license,permit or authorization required by State law.
I recognize that I waive my right of expectation of privacy and I do not have the permission of the State of Georgia to
proceed with such project until Commissioner Barrett has signed a copy of this request.

Public tune Crossover and a Marsh Crosswalk
Atlantic Ocean, Chatham County, Georgia
This serves as notification from the Coastal Marshlands Protection Committee and
the Shore Protection Committee and the Georgia Department of Natural Resources
of a request from the City of Tybee Island for a Coastal Marshlands Protection
Permit under 0.C.G.A. 12-5-280 et, seq. and a Shore Protection Act Permit under
0.C.G,A. 12-5-230 et, seq. to construct and maintain a public crossover to access
the beach, Tybee Island, Chatham County, Georgia.
The City of Tybee Island requests to construct and maintain an elevated walkway
over marsh connected to a dune crosswalk to allow for beach access to residents
•
and visitors at the northwest end of Tybee Island. The area currently has several
private crosswalks but no public access within 1.4 miles. The proposal includes
activity in the dunes and marsh and therefore requires a Shore Protection Permit
•
and a Coastal Marshland Protection Permit.
Unopened Beyers Street runs perpendicular to the beach and crosses vegetated
marsh, forested upland and sand dunes. The applicant proposes to construct and
maintain a 6' x 80' elevated wooden walkway at the end of existing Beyers Street
which would connect to a 6' x 200' crosswalk over the marsh. An elevated
walkway would continue on the forested upland to the north for approximately
175' and connect to a 6' x 100' dune crosswalk elevated 3' above the dunes, which
would land on the dry sand beach above the high water mark. The walkway would
impact approximately 1,200 square feet (0.03 acres) of coastal marshlands.
The applicant has delineated the upland component of the project to consist of
approximately 5,360 square feet vegetated area at the south end of the crosswalk
and a 8,750 square feet forested area at the north end of the project for a total
upland boundary of 14,110 square feet, Within the upland component the applicant
is proposing a 6' wide walkway extending approximately 80' into the upland at the
south end of the walkway and a 6' wide walkway extending approximately 175' at
the north end of the project that will connect to the proposed dune crossover. In
addition, the applicant is proposing a 2,400 square foot gravel parking area to
I H r:;„:
. '[;-
provide 3 parking spaces and a bike rack. The walkways, bike rack and parking
impact approximately 3,930 square feet of the 14,110 square feet upland project
area.
The 50' Coastal Marshlands Protection Act buffer is currently forested vegetation
at both ends of the walkway. Improvements within the 50' buffer will be the
proposed walkways to provide permanent access to the marsh component.
Stormwater from the slatted wooden walkways will be naturally treated by running
through the slats and into the existing vegetated buffer.
It is the responsibility of the applicant to demonstrate that the project is not
contrary to the public interest and that no feasible alternative sites exist. Impacts to
coastal marshlands must be minimal in size. In passing upon the application for
permit, the Coastal Marshlands Protection Committee shall consider the public
interest: (1) Whether or not unreasonably harmful obstruction to or alteration of the
natural flow of navigational water within the affected area will arise as a result of
the proposal; (2) Whether or not unreasonably harmful or increased erosion,
shoaling of channels, or stagnant areas of water will be created; and (3) Whether or
not the granting of a permit and the completion of the applicant's proposal will
unreasonably interfere with the conservation of fish, shrimp, oysters, crabs, clams,
or other marine life, wildlife, or other resources, including but not limited to water
and oxygen supply.
The Shore Protection Committee shall consider the public interest: (1) Whether or
not unreasonably harmful, increased alteration of the dynamic dune field or
submerged lands, or function of the sand-sharing system will be created; (2)
Whether or not the granting of a permit and the completion of the applicant's
proposal will unreasonably interfere with the conservation of marine life, wildlife,
or other resources; and (3) Whether or not the granting of a permit and the
completion of the applicant's proposal will unreasonably interfere with reasonable
access by and recreational use and enjoyment of public properties impacted by the
project.
A detailed public notice with drawings has been distributed and is available by
visiting the Division's website: http://crd.dnr.state.ga.us/ under "Permits and
Public Notices" or by calling Ann Thran at (912) 617-6310.
Please provide this office with substantive, site-specific comments as to why the
proposed work should or should not proceed. Comments and questions concerning
this proposed project should be submitted by close of business on December 8,
2008 to Ann Thran, Department of Natural Resources, 185 Richard Davis Drive,
Suite 104, Richmond Hill, Georgia 31324.

RE: Dune Cross-over @Byers and Bay
Dear Ms. Schleicher:
Joe Wilson, Public Works Director, has advised of his intent to construct the dune cross-over at
the north end of Byers Street. Joe has advised that:
1) Construction will be in conformance with Standard Conditions for Dune Crossovers as
outlined in the Shore Protection Act O.C.G.A. 12-5-230 Standard Permit Conditions for
Dune Crossoverers.
2) Siting, design, elevation and profile of the cross-walk, where not in conflict with the Shore
Protection Act and the standards in 1, will be to the standards of Beach and Dune
Walkover Guidelines of the FDEP (01 106). Depth of bury on all columns will be 8'
minimum
3) As the FDEP document is not specific on construction details. Figure 2-Typical Deck
Section of the Coastal Engineering Technical Note—Beach Dune Walkover Structures
TN-Ill-5 (01/81) by the US Army COE Coastal Engineering Research Center showing a
cross-section of the structure will be adhered to. Material specifications will be to this
document. Additional requirements and recommendations of this document will be
followed where more stringent than the aforementioned documents...
To the best of my knowledge and belief, construction of the cross-over to the above conditions
meets applicable hurricane-resistant standards
As always, contact me if you have any questions on this matter.
Sincerely,

On many of Florida's beaches, sand dunes and coastal vegetation provide significant
protection to upland property, upland development, and the beach dune system. The
Florida Department of Environmental Protection(DEP)encourages the design of beach
access, including beach and dune walkovers,to protect the dune topography and dune
vegetation from pedestrian traffic and allow for the natural recovery of damaged or
eroded dunes.
PERMIT REQUIREMENTS
A permit from DEP is required for construction of walkovers on most sandy beaches
fronting on the open waters of the Atlantic Ocean or Gulf of Mexico. In areas where a
Coastal Construction Control Line (CCCL)has been established pursuant to provisions of
Section 161.053,Florida Statutes (F.S.), a permit is required for all excavation,
construction, or other activities with the potential to cause beach erosion or damage
coastal vegetation. On sandy shorelines where a CCCL line has not been established, a
permit is required for construction activities within 50 feet of the mean high water line
(see Section 161.052,F.S.).
Permits for walkovers contain standard conditions that require construction to be
conducted in a manner that minimizes short-term disturbance to the dune system and
existing vegetation. Replacing vegetation destroyed during construction with similar
plants suitable for beach and dune stabilization is required. Only limited excavation for
the placement of support posts is authorized, and construction of walkovers may not
occur during the marine turtle-nesting season,which extends May 1 through October 31
(except for Brevard through Dade counties, which extends March 1 through October 31).
GENERAL SITING GUIDELINES
The walkover shall be designed and sited to protect dune features,to minimize
disturbance of native vegetation,to not restrict lateral beach access and to minimize the
amount of construction material that may become debris during a storm. Elevated
walkovers are not required for all beach accesses, such as in sparsely vegetated, low
profile dune areas where on-grade sand or shell paths are suitable for controlling foot
traffic. Walkovers should generally be constructed perpendicular to the shoreline and
extend at least to the seaward toe of the frontal dune or the existing line of vegetation but
not farther than 10 feet seaward of the vegetation. The optimum siting of the walkover
structure can be determined by contacting a CCCL field inspector.
GENERAL DESIGN GUIDELINES
Walkovers are designed to be minor, expendable structures that pose a minimal
interference with coastal processes and generate minimal amounts of debris. Walkovers
constructed across native beach and dune vegetation should be post-supported and
elevated a sufficient distance above the existing or proposed vegetation to allow for sand
build-up and clearance above the vegetation. Whenever possible, stairways and ramps
leading from the dune bluff or crest down to the beach should be designed with posts that
completely span the seaward slope of the dune. The structure should be designed to
minimize the quantity of material used in construction, such as avoiding the use of
vertical wood pickets, and reducing the length and width of construction on the beach.
Single family walkovers should not exceed 4 feet in overall width and the support posts
shall not be greater than 4-inch wide posts. Multi-family walkovers shall not exceed 6
feet in overall width and the support posts shall not be greater than 6-inch wide posts.
Round posts are preferred to square posts. Support posts shall not be encased in concrete
nor installed into dune slopes that are steeper than approximately 30 degrees. Support
posts should have a minimum 5 feet of soil penetration. Applicants should consult with
the Bureau prior to requesting a permit for a walkover that contains switchbacks, long
ramps or other features required to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act
Accessibility Guidelines.
WALKOVER ELEVATION GUIDELINES
Site conditions affecting walkover heights vary as the structure traverses the beach/dune
system. The ground cover changes from the uplands,commonly covered with woody
scrub or coastal strand vegetation(saw palmetto/sea grape/scrub oaks),over a dune bluff
or one or several dune crest(s),covered with either coastal strand or coastal grassland
(sea oats/bitter panicum/marsh hay), down the slope to the dry sand beach,either
uncovered bare escarpment or partially covered with beach/dune vegetation(railroad
vine/sea rocket/sea oats). The type of structure and height from the dune bluff or crest
down to the beach also must be considered in setting the walkover elevation. Increased
elevation of the structure requires a longer run to the beach and additional construction
material within this high energy area. This creates additional storm generated debris, sea
turtle nesting habitat impacts, sand losses due to storm wave scour, and interferes with
people's ability to walk along the beach.
Walkover Elevations in Uplands. The upland environment of coastal scrub/coastal strand
habitat is characterized by more stable soil conditions with less blowing sands and
infrequent storm overwash events. The stable conditions allow for the development of a
mature woody vegetation and saw palmetto dominated plant community. In addition to
thick above ground stem and leaf vegetation between 5 and 15 feet in height,this plant
community has an extensive below ground woody root mat. Walkovers in these upland
habitats need be elevated only a sufficient distance above the ground to avoid disturbance
of the soil and root systems or cutting of low tree and palmetto trunks. An elevation of
the stringers from 6" to 2'-0" above existing grade should be sufficient. Walkover
elevations crossing coastal wetlands within upland areas may require increased
elevations. Elevation of the walkover above the leaf canopy is in most cases impractical
in coastal scrub or coastal strand habitats.
Walkover Elevations over Bluffs. The low stringer elevation recommended for uplands
can be carried to an eroded bluff line. This will reduce the length of a ramp or walkover
down to the beach. Again the objective the walkover elevation is to reduce damage to
coastal scrub soils and root systems.
Walkover Elevations over Dune Crests. Dune environments are characterized by mobile
sands subject to storm effects (which lower grade elevations)and wind effects(which can
raise elevation as sand is trapped). Dunes are dominated by coastal grassland plants
adapted to the dynamic environment. These include sea oats, bitter panicum, and little
bluestem. Walkovers sited within active dune systems are required to be elevated
sufficiently to allow for sand movement and growth of vegetation. Walkover designs
published in "Beach/Dune Walkover Structures" referenced below specify a 3'-10"
minimum clearance from existing grade to the bottom of the stringers of an up to 6-foot
wide(overall dimension)multi-family or public beach access structures, and a 3'-0"
minimum clearance to the top of the deck for an up to 4-foot wide single family
structures.
Walkover Elevations on Seaward Dune or Bluff Slopes. The elevation of the walkover at
the dune crest and the distance of the seaward terminus from the water's edge determine
the height of the steps or ramps crossing the seaward slope. The design objective is to get
the structure down to the beach in as short a shore-normal (perpendicular to the shoreline)
distance as possible while reducing the shore-parallel coverage of the slope. Department
guidelines require that the seaward terminus of the structure be no farther seaward than
10 feet from the line of permanent beach dune vegetation or the toe of the frontal dune.
Reducing the seaward encroachment and shore-parallel width decreases the potential for
storms interacting with the structure, occupation of sea turtle nesting habitat by the
structure, and interference with lateral public beach access. Walkovers designed for the
Americans with Disabilities Act often increase the length of walkover ramps on the
beach. This requires the need for a site specific review for environmental impacts. The
burial of the ramp or step terminus a minimum amount(0.5 to 1.0 feet)-foot below grade
may allow for use of the walkover after some lowering of the beach elevation from minor
storms. However,placement of this terminus below the depth of a post storm beach
profile is discouraged as this portion of the walkover will most likely have been damaged
by larger storms and to have interfered with coastal processes.
On Grade Walkovers. Elevated walkovers are not necessary in all site conditions and use
situations. Where dune development is minimal, beach dune vegetation sparse or use
infrequent, on-grade footpaths may be preferred. The Department discourages solid
concrete walks and footpath surfaces such as stepping stones that create debris or
missiles. Other surfaces such as geotextile fabrics, cabled wood planks, or shell require a
case by case review.No permanent path surfaces are allowed seaward of the dune or
within sea turtle nesting habitat.

PURPOSE: To describe the use of beach dune walkover structures and present
a typical design of this type structure. This Technical Note is intended
to encourage the building of walkover structures in areas where dunes are
threatened by human traffic.
GENERAL: Numerous dune systems along the coast are undergoing destruction
due to the loss of vegetation caused by unrestrictea access to the beach
over the dune systems. As the vegetation is lost, the wind becomes capable
of eroding the dune and causes a progressive deterioration of the er.tire
dune system. In areas of high foot traffic, a beach walkover structure may
be used to save this vegetation.
EXAMPLE: Figures 1 and 2 present typical design details of a structure for
use in areas of heavy foot traffic, as a community public access ramp. The
depths of pilings account for both depth necessary for structure stability,
and added depth to account for possible dune deflation and storm erosion
The designs are basic enough such that various alternatives can
be added to the designs without altering the structures to a great degree.
One such alteration would be a transverse extension of the deck section
with benches for people to sit on overlooking the beach area. The addi-
tion of properly spaced, skid resistant materials to the decking of the
ramp section of the large walkover structure would make the deck and the
deck extension accessible to handicapped people in wheelchairs. Additional
features which could also be added are limited only by the planner's
imagination.

Subject: Ref: Proposed public access walkway at corner of Byers Road,Tybee
Dear Ms. Thran,
Thank you very much for speaking with my business colleague this morning. I
understand this is the last day to make a public comment for the record on
the proposed new beach access on Byers Road at Tybee and we wish to do so.
My family, the Mayfield/Hendon family, own a beach house at#2 Sanctuary
Place. The corner of our property is adjacent to the proposed new beach access
proposed by the City of Tybee. We are certainly in favor of having
additional beach access, particularly at the North end of the island where public
beach access is limited but do have some concerns.
I worked tirelessly to restore the marsh area in front of our home, removing
100's of pounds of trash, including old tires, car parts, engine blocks,
etc. We are pleased to say the marsh has responded well to this care and
appears to be thriving. We have also planted, within the confines of our property,
additional shrubbery for additional screening.
We took notice of the Public Notice by the City of Tybee concerning the
proposed new walkway and saw that they have proposed the removal of three mature
cedar trees in order to accommodate the walkway. We would like to have these
trees kept in their natural state and place if at all possible by moving the
walkway around them. While we would agree to pay for them to be moved,we
are very concerned the shock of the move would cause the demise of the trees
and would be counterproductive to our goal of keeping them in their existing
location and in the good health they are in at the present time.
We are also concerned about the placement of the bike rack and additional
parking. Since there is limited buffer area as it is from our property and the
proposed walkway, we would appreciate it if the bike rack and parking could
be concentrated on the East side, by the tennis courts.
Thank you very much for your kind consideration. We will have a family
member present at the public hearing on December 18th,
You can reach me at the following address:

Re: Permit Application for Public Dune Crossover and Marsh Crosswalk near Bay and
Byers Streets,Tybee Island
Dear Ms. Thran:
As the owners of Lot A-1 of The Sanctuary subdivision which immediately adjoins the
proposed Crossover and Crosswalk,we have recently written the attached(and similar)
letters to the Tybee Island Mayor,Council Members, and Manager.
By way of reference,fully 375 feet of the proposed walkway/crossover project are directly
adjacent to our ocean front lot,and the proposed elevation of the crossover is very nearly the
level of our planned living room and balcony.
As expressed in the attached letter, we will be uniquely impacted by the proposed project
and are very concerned with the impact of the proposed project on our privacy and property
values. Specifically, we have requested:
1) that landscape screening be provided along the border between our property and
the proposed project, and
2) that plans for the parking area be provided so that the entire project can be
adequately considered.
Accordingly, we respectfully request that either the requested permit be deferred until our
concerns have been addressed or, if the permit is to be issued at this time, that it be
conditioned upon complete plans (including the parking area and appropriate landscaping)
being published for public review, comment and input prior to construction of the project.
Please let me stress that we are not in opposition to the concept of the proposed project, but
are very concerned about these two areas mentioned which have the potential to
dramatically affect our privacy and property value. As I have just recently sent the attached
Page 1 014

letter to the city officials, it is possible that these matters can be addressed prior to your
December 18 meeting; 1 will advise you immediately of any further developments.
Thank you in advance for your consideration of this matter. Please feel free to contact either
of us at any tim,s.' erning these important matters.

Re: Public Dune Crossover and Marsh Crosswalk near Bay and Byers Streets
Dear Mr. Mayor,
As the owners of Lot A-1 of The Sanctuary subdivision which immediately adjoins the
proposed Crossover and Crosswalk,we are writing to lend our encouragement for the
overall concept and to express our concerns for some of the details of implementation.
In a general sense, we commend you and the council for moving forward with a much
needed public dune crossover on the north beach. However, fully 375 feet of your proposed
550 foot project are directly adjacent to our ocean front lot. In addition,the proposed
elevation of the crossover is very nearly the level of our planned living room and balcony.
Consequently,we will be uniquely impacted by this project and we ask for your
consideration of the following:
Landscape Screening: As the project will no doubt require some clearing of foliage to
permit construction and maintenance, we request that you provide landscape screening
along the western side of the Crosswalk and Crossover. In anticipation of your project,we
have planted some bamboo inside our property line. Whatever evergreen screening material
you deem appropriate,we are confident you will agree that some heavy screening will be
required to minimize the project's impact on our privacy and property value. We would
appreciate your providing us with a landscape plan for the project at your earliest
convenience so that we can determine what, if any, additional action will be required on our
part.
Parking Lot and Bike Rack: Although these items are mentioned in the official notice, no
details of location, material, and landscaping are provided. Since apparently the parking is
planned to be located very near to the entrance to The Sanctuary (of which our lot A-1 is a
part), we are very concerned about the safety and aesthetic impact of parking in this area.

need for a site specific revie' . environmental impacts. The buri . tamp or step terminus a minimum
amount (0.5 to 1.0 feet)-foot below grade may allow for use of the walkover after some lowering of the beach
elevation from minor storms. However, placement of this terminus below the depth of a post storm beach
profile is discouraged as this portion of the walkover will most likely have been damaged by larger storms and
to have interfered with coastal processes.
On Grade Walkovers. Elevated walkovers are not necessary in all site conditions and use situations. Where dur
development is minimal, beach dune vegetation sparse or use infrequent, on-grade footpaths may be preferred.
The Department discourages solid concrete walks and footpath surfaces such as stepping stones that create
debris or missiles. Other surfaces such as geotextile fabrics, cabled wood planks, or shell require a case by case
review. No permanent path surfaces are allowed seaward of the dune or within sea turtle nesting habitat.
