■ The project should maintain a slope similar to normal conditions. The slope, or grade, of the
project must not be so steep that it endangers the public or interferes with public use of the
beach.
■ Bulldozer blades may not be lowered more than one foot as measured from the existing surface
elevation.
• Never bulldoze below mean low water.
■ General Permits limit the movement of sand from above mean high water only.
■ Beach bulldozing must not extend past the lateral boundary of your property, unless you have
permission from the neighboring landowner.
■ This permit is to allow the creation of a protective berm or repair an eroded dune. It is not for
the backfilling of undermined or damaged septic systems. Before covering a septic system,
contact your local Health Department and Building Inspector to determine the extent of the
damage, and whether a permit will be required to replace or relocate the system.
■ Remove debris, as it is uncovered. Do not bury or cover debris.
• Make sure a copy of this authorization is on site during work.
