PROJECT ADDRESS — 312 LU LN
AREA OF ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERN — ESTUARINE SHORELINE ORW
Dear MR BALANCE:
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 3, 2015,1 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 and materials list submitted on JULY 31, 2015, and
meets the conditions specified below. If your plans should change and your project will no longer meet these
conditions, please contact me before proceeding.
MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR — [15A NCAC 7K .0209(c)] - Any structure, or part thereof, consistent with current
CRC rules may be maintained, repaired or replaced in a similar manner, size and location as the existing structure
without requiring a permit, unless the repair or replacement would be in violation of the criteria set out below. This
exemption applies to those projects that are not within the exclusion for maintenance and repairs as set out in G.S.
113A-103(5)b.5., Rule .0103 of this Subchapter and Rule 07J .0210.
1. the development must not disturb a land area of greater than 200 square feet on a slope of greater than
10 percent;
2. the development must not involve removal, damage, or destruction of threatened or endangered animal
or plant species;
3. the development must not alter naturally or artificially created surface drainage channels;
4. the development must not alter the land form or vegetation of a frontal dune;
5. the development must not be within 30 feet of normal water level or normal high water level; and;

6. development must be consistent with all applicable use standards and local land use plans in effect at
the time the exemption is granted.
Structures may be repaired in a similar manner, size and location as the original structure. No expansions or
additions are permissible and the following specific conditions apply:
1. The project consists of the repair of 48 SQ. FT. OF DECKING, as shown on the attached drawing and
materials list.
2. The proposed repairs shall be consistent with all other applicable local ordinances and North Carolina
Building Code standards.
This exemption to CAMA permit requirements does not alleviate the necessity of your obtaining any other State,
Federal or Local authorization and N.C. Building Permits. This exemption expires 90 days from the date of the letter.
Sincerely,
OSH EDMONDSON, LPO
