RE: EXEMPTED PROJECT (MINOR) EXEMPTION
STRUCTURAL ACCESSWAY (15A NCAC 7K .0207)
4021 Island Drive, North Topsail beach, NC
OCEAN HAZARD AREA OF ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERN
Dear Ms. Wood:
Dee Freeman
Secretary
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 8/16/2012, 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
dated received by the Division of Coastal Management on 9/24/2012, and meet the conditions specified below. If you plans should
change and your project will no longer meet these conditions, please contact me before proceeding.
STRUCTURAL ACCESSWAY EXEMPTED
The accessway must not exceed six feet in width and shall provide only pedestrian access to the ocean beach.
The accessway must be constructed so as to make negligible alterations to the frontal dunes. This means that the
accessway must be constructed on raised posts or pilings of five feet or less in depth, so that wherever possible only the
posts or pilings touch the frontal dunes without any alteration to the dunes. In no case shall the frontal dune be altered so
as to significantly diminish its capacity as a protective barrier against flooding and erosion.
Construction of the accessway be shall consistent with all other applicable local ordinances and N. C. Building Code
standards.
This exemption to CAMA permit requirements does not alleviate the necessity of your obtaining any other State, Federal or
Local authorization. This exemption expires 90 days from the date of the letter.
8ricerely,
I
