BUFFER AUTHORIZATION CERTIFICATE
FOR PIER AND DOCKING FACILITIES ACCESS WAY
A riparian buffer authorization is required for pier and docking facilities access ways through the Tar-Pamlico &
Neuse.River Riparian buffer per Division of Water Resources (DWR) regulations 15A NCAC 02B.0233 & .0259. The
Division of Coastal Management (DCM), through a Memorandum of Understanding with the Division of Water
Resources (DWR) has reviewed your project proposal and has determined that the project as proposed complies
with the aforementioned regulations.
Those activities covered by your Coastal Area Management Act (CAMA) permit have received Buffer Authorization
provided the project is constructed in a manner that continues to meet all of the conditions listed below. Failure to
comply with this Buffer Authorization may subject the property owner and the party (contractor) performing the
construction and/or land clearing to a civil penalty by DWR of up to$25,000 per day per violation.
1. Crossing is Perpendicular: Pier and docking facility access way must cross the 50 ft. riparian buffer
perpendicularly(which is defined as between 75 and 105 degrees) unless otherwise approved by DCM. The
alignment shall minimize the removal of woody vegetation to the greatest extent practicable.
2. Pervious Materials:All reasonable measures shall be taken to ensure the access way is made of pervious
materials like open-slatted wood or composite, mulch, or grass to meet the intent of the rules to the
maximum extent practicable.
•
3. Access Width:The width of the pier or docking facility access way shall be limited to six (6) feet.
4. Project Drawing:The drawing on the CAMA General Permit is considered the project drawing of your
property indicating the relative location of the pier or docking facility and any requested access way. This
drawing will be used to aid in compliance and monitoring efforts.

TIPS FOR ADJACENT RIPARIAN OWNER NOTIFICATION &WAIVER FORMS
CAMA Regulations require notice of proposed development to the Adjacent Riparian Property Owners(15A
NCAC 7J.0204(b)(5)). Proof of actual notice (a sign-off by the owner on this form) or certified mail return
receipts(showing delivery, of notice)are needed, or any other method which satisfies the Local Permit Officer
(LPO)that a good faith effort has been made to provide notice.
The purpose of this notice is to make adjacent riparian property owners aware of the proposed development
so that they have an opportunity to provide comments(or potentially object to)the proposed development, and
to give DCM or the LPO an opportunity to consider these comments/objections before a permit decision is
made. "Permission" of adjacent property owners is not necessarily required for DCM to issue a permit;
however, permission must be obtained for certain types of proposed developments if they fall within a 15'
setback area'along the riparian access area of the adjacent property, as determined solely by DCM. It is in the
applicant's best interest to provide comprehensive and accurate notice so that any concerns or objections can
be resolved early in the permit review process. In addition, if the adjacent riparian property owner appeals the
permit decision, insufficient notice could be a basis for granting such an appeal..
Who is an Adjacent Riparian Property Owner?
What is Adjacent? (Note: DCM reads this broadly to ensure comment by potentially impacted neighbors)
• A property that shares a boundary line with the site of proposed development; AND
• A property that fronts a natural or manmade waterbody that is connected to coastal waters and
can support some form of navigation, even a kayak or canoe, including a common canal system
or a manmade basin. •
• Easement holders?Yes, if the easement could be impacted by the proposed development.
• Streets/Roads? Only if the street/road could be impacted by the proposed development. This
might include street-ends which might be used for parking and beach access. _
• Holders of recognized submerged lands claims/shellfish franchises.
What is Riparian?
Do the boundaries of the adjacent property legally intersect with the water at mean high tide? If there is a
question about whether an adjacent property is considered "riparian," please reach out to DCM Staff -
especially on the oceanfront beach where there may be undeveloped parcels on the beach or in the water.
Who/What is a Property Owner?
For private individuals(or families), send notice to the address listed on the tax card. If the property is owned
by an Inc. or LLC, please send notice to the person listed as the registered agent on the NC Secretary of
State's Corporations Look Up site: https://www.sosnc.gov/search/index/core. For Condominiums or
neighborhoods with an owners' association (HOA/POA), send notice to the association (which is usually a
corporation, for which you send notice to its registered agent).
What is Notice, and how do I ensure it is received?
• You can meet with your adjacent property owner, provide a description or drawing of the proposed
development, and ask them to sign this form and return it to DCM; OR
• You can hand-deliver this form and a description or drawing, and ask your neighbor to return it to
DCM (consider providing them with a stamped envelope); OR
• You can mail this form by USPS Certified Mail, return receipt requested (the Green Card). If you
choose this option, you must provide either the signed & returned green card OR track the
certified mail package number on USPS.GOV's online tracking system, and provide the tracking
print-out as proof of delivery to DCM
If you have any questions about this process, please reach out to DCM Staff and DCM,Legal Counsel and
we will work to answer your questions.
