APPLICATION
FOR
CAMA
r MINOR
DEVELOPMENT
PERM,_IT
In 1974, the North Carolina General'Assem
bly passed the Coastal Area Management Act }
and set the stage for guiding development in
the fragile and productive areas which border .`
the state's estuaries, sounds and oceanfront.' =
Along with requiring special care by those
who build and develop, the General Assembly
directed the Coastal Resources Commission to
implement clear,`regulations which minimize
the burden on the applicant. `
This application for a minor development per-
mit under CAMA is part of the Commission's ;
effort to meet the spirit and intent of the
General Assembly. It has been designed to be _
straightforward and require no more time or
effort than necessary from the applicant. '
Please go over this folder with the Local
Permit Officer for the locality in which you
plan to build to be'certain that you under-
stand what information he orsheneeds.
Under CAMA regulations the minor permit
is to be issued within 30',days once a complete
application is in hand. Often less time is needed
if the project is simple.'The process generally
takes about 18 days. You can help speed the
approval process by making certain that your
application is completed'and signed, that your
drawing meets the specifications given inside
and that your application fee is attached.
Other permits are sometimes required for I
development in the coastal area. While these
are not CAMA-related, we urge you to check
'with the Local Permit Officer 'todetermine az
which of.these you may need. A listing is
included on page 2 of the folder. M
We appreciate your cooperation with the
North Carolina coastal management program
and your willingness to build in a way which
protects the resources of our beautiful and
productive coast.

RE: Proposed Beach Access on New Bern Street, Atlantic Beach
Our File 85-0051
Gentlemen:
Our client, The Dunes Club, Inc., has been informed that the Town
of Atlantic Beach is proposing to construct a public beach access
within the boundaries of New Bern Street. We have obtained a copy
of the CAMA Permit Application and a blueprint showing the layout
of the proposed parking area and access facilities.
The Dunes Club objects to the proposed beach access project. As
designed, the project would impose a substantial restriction on the
Dunes Club's right of access to its property fronting on New Bern
Street. Construction of the project would in effect result in a
taking of the Dunes.Club's right of access without compensation.
We request that all permits for the proposed project be denied. We
will be happy to discuss this matter with you, but please be aware
that the Dunes Club intends to take whatever steps are necessary to

AEC HAZARD NOTICE
YOUR PROJECT IS IN AN:
OCEAN ERODIBLE AREA HIGH HAZARD FLOOD AREA INLET HAZARD AREA
This notice is intended to make you, the appli-
cant, aware of the special risks and conditions
associated with development in this area, which is
subject to natural hazards such as storms, erosion
or currents. The rules of the Coastal Resources
Commission require that you receive an AEC
hazard notice and acknowledge that notice in
writing before any permit for development in this
area can be issued.
The Commission's rules on building standards,
oceanfront setbacks and dune alteration are
designed to minimize, but not totally eliminate,
property losses from the hazards. By granting
permits, the Coastal Resources Commission does
not guarantee the safety of the development and
assumes no liability for future damage to the
development.
The best available information, as accepted by
the Coastal Resources Commission, indicates that
the annual ocean erosion rate fir the area where
your property is located is oL feet per year.
Date
This figure was established by careful analysis of
aerial photographs of the coastline taken over the
past 30 to 40 years.
Studies also indicate that the shoreline could
move as much as_, K feet landward in a major
storm. -5"0 oZ -e �
The flood waters in a major storm are predic-
ted to be about q —feet deep in this area.
Preferred oceanfront protection measures are
beach nourishment projects and relocation of
threatened structures. Hard erosion protection
structures such as wooden bulkheads, seawalls,
rock and rubble revetments, wooden, metal,
concrete or rock jetties, groins and breakwaters,
concrete -filled sandbags and tire structures are
prohibited. Sandbag bulkheads or groins, beach
nourishment, beach bulldozing, and low intensity
off -shore passive sandtrapping devices may be
permissible under certain conditions.
Applicant's Signature
The applicant must acknowledge receipt of this information by signing this notice in the space above. Without
the proper signature, the application will not be complete.
SPECIAL'' NOTE: This hazard' notice is required for development in areas subject to sudden and; massive storms and
erosion. Permits issued in this area expire on December 31 of the third year following the year in which the permit was
issued. Shortly before work begins on the project site, the Local Permit Officer will determine the vegetation line and
setback distance at that particular site. If the property has seen little change and the proposed development can still
meet the ,setback requirement the LPO will inform you; that you may begin development. It is important that you
check with the LPO before the permit expires for official approval to continue work after your permit expires. Gener-
ally, if foundation pilings have been placed and substantial progress is continuing, permit renewal may not be necessary.
If substantial progress, has not been made the permit must be renewed and a new setback may be applied. -1T IS
UNLAWFUL TO CONTINUE WORK AFTER PERMIT EXPIRATION WITHOUT THIS APPROVAL.

BEFORE YO
Setting Back for Safety: A Guide to W
When you build along the oceanfront you take a calcu-
lated risk, Natural forces of water and wind collide with tons
of force, even on calm days.
There are no man-made structures guaranteed to survive
the force of a hurricane. Long-term erosion (or barrier
island migration) takes from two to ten feet of the beach
each year and, sooner or later, will threaten oceanfront
structures.
These are the facts of life for oceanfront property owners.
THE RULES
When you build along the oceanfront, coastal manage-
ment rules require that the structure be sited to fit safely
into the beach environment. Specifically, a structure along
the oceanfront must be: (1) behind the frontal dune; and,
(2) landward of the crest of'the primary dune; and (3) set
back from the first line of stable vegetation a distance equal
to 30 times the annual erosion rate or 60 feet, whichever is
greater, for residential structures of four units or less, or
less than 5,000 square feet total floor area; and (4) set
back from the first line of stable vegetation a distance equal
to 60 times the annual erosion rate or 120 feet, whichever
is greater, for residential structures of more than four units
or 5,000 square feet total floor area.
U BUILD--.-.---.----- _
ise Development Along the Oceanfront
The Coastal Resources Commission has..adJpted rules
for building along the oceanfront. The rules are' intended to
avoid an unreasonable risk to life and property and to limit
public and private losses from both storms and long-term
erosion. These rules do not eliminate — but only lessen —
the element of risk in oceanfront development.
As you consider building along the oceanfront, the CRC
wants you to understand the rules and the risks. With this
knowledge you can make a more informed decision about
where and how to build in the coastal area.

THE REASONS
The beachfront is an ever -changing landform. The beach
and the dunes are nature's "shock absorbers", taking the
beatings of the wind and waves and protecting the inland
areas. By setting back 30 or 60 times the annual long-term
erosion rate, you have a good chance of enjoying the full
(LARGE I (SMALL
STRUCTURES) I STRUCTURES) I
life of the structure. At first glance, it seems very inviting
to build your dream house as close to the beach as possible
but in five years you could find the dream has become a
nightmare as high tides and storms threaten your investment.

ONE YEAR AFTER STORM/BEACH REBUILDING
After the storm, the house on the dune will be gone. The other has a much greater chance of survival.
THE EXCEPTION
The Coastal Resources Commission recognized that these
rules, passed in June of 1979, might prove a hardship for a
small group of property owners. So there was an exemption
established for lots which cannot meet the setback require-
ments of 30 times the annual erosion rate. The exemption
allows building in front of the setback line under certain
conditions. These are:
(1) the lot must have been platted as of June 1, 1979,
and not capable of being enlarged by combining
with adjoining land under the same ownership; and
(2) development be as far back on the property as possible
and in no case less than 60 feet landward of the
vegetation line; and,
(3) no development can take place on the frontal dune;
and,
