WATERS (ORW) WITHIN THE ESTUARINE SHORELINE AREA OF ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERN (15A NCAC

PROJECT LOCATION/ADDRESS — 7414 Sound Drive, Emerald Isle, North Carolina
Dear Mr. & Mrs. Frank Rush:
I have reviewed the information submitted to this office in your inquiry concerning the necessary filing of
an application for a minor development permit under the Coastal Area Management Act. After making a site inspection on
August 16, 2005,1 have determined that the activity you propose is exempt from needing a minor development permit as
long as it remains consistent with your site drawing submitted on August 15, 2005 and it also meets the conditions specified
below. If you plans should change and your project will no longer meet these conditions, please contact me before
proceeding.
SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENCES WITHIN THE ESTAURINE SHORELINE AREA OF ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERN
EXEMPTED
1. All development shall be located at least 40 feet of the mean high water mark or normal water level from
waters classified as ORW.
2. No ground disturbance or land disturbing activity shall occur within 40 feet of the mean high water mark or
normal water level from waters classified as ORW.
3. The development may not exceed a 25% built upon area within 575 feet of the mean high water mark or
normal water level of waters classified as ORW, and shall not include any stormwater collection system.
4. The development shall be consistent with all other applicable CAMA permit standards, North Carolina
Building Code standards, local ordinances and local land use plans in effect at the time the exemption is
granted.
This exemption to CAMA permit requirements does not alleviate the necessity of your obtaining any other State,
Federal or Local authorization. This exemption expires one (1) year from the date of the letter.
Sincerely,
Brad Fischer, LPO
