HAZARD FLOOD AREA OF ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERN — (15A NCAC 07K

PROJECT LOCATION/ADDRESS —10211 Sea Mist Drive — Emerald Isle, NC
Dear Mr. Herring:
I have reviewed the information submitted to this office in your inquiry concerning the
necessary filing of an application for a CAMA Minor Development Permit under the
Coastal Area Management Act. After making a site inspection on 4/24/07, 1 have
determined that the activity you propose is exempt from needing a CAMA Minor
Development Permit as long as it remains consistent with your project drawing, dated
4/24/07, 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 HIGH HAZARD FLOOD AREA OF
ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERN EXEMPTED - All single family residences,
including associated infrastructure, accessory structures or structural additions to
an existing single family structure, constructed within the High Hazard Flood Area of
Environmental Concern are exempt from the CAMA Minor Permit requirements
provided the development is consistent with all other applicable CAMA permit
standards and local land use plans and/or rules in effect at the time the exemption
is granted including the following conditions and limitations:

1. Development shall not be located within the Ocean Erodible or the Inlet
Hazard AEC.
2. Any building shall be constructed on pilings and comply with the North
Carolina Building Codes and the local flood damage ordinances, as required
by National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP).
3. The development does not require any permission, licensing, approval,
certification, authorization or approval from any state or federal agency.
4. A signed AEC hazard notice indicating that the property owner is aware of the
special risks and conditions associated with development in this area.
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.
