RE: EXEMPTED PROJECT (MINORS) SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENCES WITHIN THE HIGH
HAZARD FLOOD AREA OF ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERN—(15A NCAC 07K.0213)
PROJECT LOCATION/ADDRESS—1310 N. Topsail Drive, Surf City,NC
Dear Mr. Riggs:
I have reviewed the information you submitted to our office concerning the necessary filing of an
application for a CAMA Minor Development Permit under the Coastal Area Management Act. Based on current
site conditions, in addition to the information received, I 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
drawings and paperwork, dated received June 30, 2014,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.
5. Please note that although your plans show an impervious calculation of zero percent(0%)for the
"proposed pervious driveway", a certain portion of the driveway will count as impervious based on
current Rules implemented by the NC Division of Energy, Minerals and Land Resources
(NCDEMLR). It is recommended that you contact the NCDEMLR for additional information

Mr. Charles Riggs

related to "pervious drives" as your proposed development may required approvals, licensing and/or
certifications from the NCDEMLR.
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.
