RALEIGH — Coastal property owners who need to replace docks, piers, bulkheads or similar structures
damaged by Hurricane Opheli.a along sounds, rivers and creeks may be able to do so quickly by using an
emergency general permit offered by the state Division of Coastal Management.
The permit regulations speed up the authorization process for rebuilding structures that meet state
standards. The rules also waive permit fees for those projects, as well as beach bulldozing and maintenance
dredging of existing channels related to hurricane -.recovery.
Bill Ross, secretary of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources, activated the general
permit today. It may be used in the following counties: Currituck, Dare, Beaufort, Hyde, Pamlico, Carteret,
Craven, Onslow, Pender, New Hanover and Brunswick. The permit does not eliminate the need to obtain any
other required state, local or federal authorization.
Property owners have until March 15, 2006 to obtain the emergency general permit. Work authorized
under the permit must be completed by Sept. 15, 2006.
The general permit cannot be used for rebuilding houses and does not apply to the replacement of
oceanfront structures. Non -oceanfront property owners who lost their houses will need either a CAMA minor
permit or a permit exemption to replace it, depending on where their house was located. Replacement of.
oceanfront houses requires a CAMA minor permit.
Contact Coastal Management staff before beginning repairs or replacement work, said Charles Jones,
director of the Division of Coastal Management.
If you want to apply for the emergency general permit, here's how you can help Coastal Management
review your request as quickly as possible:
1 Please make your request in person at the Coastal Management office that Covers your county:
1367 U.S. 17 South, Elizabeth City (Camden, Chowan, Currituck, Dare, Gates, Pasquotank and
Perquimans counties); 400 Commerce Ave., Morehead City (Carteret, Craven and Pamlico
counties, and the White Oak River bank in Onslow County); 943 Washington Square Mall,
Washington (Beaufort, Bertie, Hertford, Hyde, Tyrrell and Washington counties); 127 Cardinal
Drive Ext., Wilmington (Brunswick, New Hanover and Pender counties, Onslow County south of
the New River, and Topsail Island)

severity and scale of property damage, designation of counties as disaster areas, reconnaissance of the
impacted areas, or discussions with staff, state or federal emergency response agencies. This permit
shall allow for:
(1) the replacement of structures that were located within the estuarine system or public trust
Areas of Environmental Concern and that were destroyed or damaged beyond 50 percent of the
structures value as a result of any hurricane or tropical storm,
(2) a one time per property fee waiver for the reconstruction or repair by beach bulldozing of
hurricane or tropical storm damaged frontal or primary dune systems, and
(3) a one time per property fee waiver for maintenance dredging activities within existing basins,
canals, channels, and ditches. Structure replacement, dune reconstruction, and maintenance excavation
activities authorized by this permit shall conform with all current use standards and regulations. The

not apply within the Ocean Hazard System of Areas of Environmental Concern (AEC) or waters
adjacent to these AECs with the exception of those portions of shoreline that feature characteristics of
Estuarine Shorelines. Such features include the presence of wetland vegetation, lower wave energy, and
lower erosion rates than in the adjoining Ocean Erodible Area.

of frontal or primary dunes, and maintenance excavation activities conforming to the standards
described in this Section.
(d) This permit does not authorize the replacement of any structure within any Ocean Hazard Area of
Environmental Concern, with the exception of those portions of shoreline within the Ocean Hazard
AEC that feature characteristics of Estuarine Shorelines. Such features include the presence of wetland
vegetation, lower wave energy, and lower erosion rates than in the adjoining Ocean Erodible Area.

15A ncac 07h .2505 SPECIFIC CONDITIONS
(a) The replacement of a damaged or destroyed structure shall take place within the footprint and
dimensions that existed immediately prior to the damaging hurricane or tropical storm. No structural
enlargement or additions shall be allowed.
(b) Structure replacement, dune reconstruction, and maintenance excavation authorized by this permit
shall conform to the existing use standards and regulations for exemptions, minor development permits
and major development permits, including general permits. These use standards include, but are not
limited to:
(1) 15A NCAC 07H .0208(b)(6) for the replacement of docks and piers;
(2) 15A NCAC 07H .0208(b)(7) for the replacement of bulkheads and shoreline stabilization
measures;
(3) 15A NCAC 07H .0208(b)(9) for the replacement of wooden and riprap groins;
(4) 15A NCAC 07H .I500 for maintenance excavation activities; and
(5) 15A NCAC 07H .1800 for beach bulldozing landward of the mean high water mark.
(c) The replacement of an existing dock or pier facility, including associated structures, marsh
enhancement breakwaters or groins shall be set back 15 feet from the adjoining property lines and the
riparian access dividing line. The line of division of riparian access shall be established by drawing a
line along the channel or deep water in front of the property, then drawing a line perpendicular to the
line of the channel so that it intersects with the shore at the point the upland property line meets the
water's edge. Application of this Rule may be aided by reference to the approved diagram in 15A
NCAC 07H .1205(q), illustrating the rule as applied to various shoreline configurations. Copies of the
diagram may be obtained from the Division of Coastal Management. When shoreline configuration is
such that a perpendicular alignment can not be achieved, the pier shall be aligned to meet the intent of
this Rule to the maximum extent practicable. The setback may be waived by written agreement of the
adjacent riparian owner(s) or when the two adjoining riparian owners are co -applicants. Should the
adjacent property be sold before replacement of the structure begins, the applicant shall obtain a written
agreement with the new owner waiving the minimum setback and submit it to the Division of Coastal
Management prior to initiating any construction of the structure.
