Dear MRS. ROSE:
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 APRIL 26, 2016,1 have determined that the activity you propose
is exempt from needing a minor development permit as long as it is installed in accordance with
your site drawing, submitted on APRIL 26, 2015, and meets the conditions specified below. If you
plans should change and your project will no longer meet these conditions, please contact me
before proceeding.
SAND FENCE CONDITIONS:
1. Sand fencing may only be installed for the purpose of: building sand dunes by
trapping wind blown sand; the protection of the dunes) and vegetation (planted or
