ORDERS:
CONSENT ORDER
This matter is before me by consent of all parties for entry of a Consent Order. This is a contested case matter in which the
Petitioner sought review of OCRM's conditional issuance of permit number OCRM-99-390-G, to replace a private dock at
5841 Shark Hole Road in Meggett, Charleston County, South Carolina. The dock as permitted was to terminate 25' from the
edge of high ground, so as to avoid crossing a navigable creek.
After revisiting the site, OCRM has determined that the dock, as proposed by Mr. Kimmel, will not obstruct navigation or
cross a navigable creek as defined by Reg. 30-12(A)(2)(n). Therefore, the parties agree that the dock will be built according
to the following:
1) the existing dock that is to be replaced will be removed prior to construction of the new dock;
2) the dock will consist of a 4' wide walkway with handrails, a 6' x 10' pierhead
with a hip roof, a 3' x 20' ramp leading to an 8' x 10' floating dock, and a 6' x 8'
single-pile boatlift;
3) it shall extend to Shark Hole Creek, and may not extend into the channel more
than 25% of the channel's width;
4) the dock shall remain within Mr. Kimmel's extended property lines.
The parties agree that this Order shall be binding on the Petitioner's heirs and assigns.
THEREFORE, it is ORDERED that permit number OCRM-99-390-G is issued as modified above.
