)ear Mr. Washington:
have reviewed the information submitted to this office in your inquiry concerning the necessary filing of an application for a minor
levelopment permit under the Coastal Area Management Act. Based on the information provided, I have determined that the activity
,ou propose is exempt from needing a minor development permit as long as it remains consistent with your site drawing dated received
iy DCM on 1/24/2013, and meets the conditions specified below. If your plans should change and your project will no longer meet
iese conditions, please contact me before proceeding.
STRUCTURAL ACCESSWAY EXEMPTED
1) The accessway must not exceed six feet in width and shall provide only pedestrian access to the ocean beach.
2) 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.
3) Construction of the accessway be shall consistent with all other applicable local ordinances and N. C. Building Code
standards.
MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR
tructures may be repaired in a similar manner, size and location as the original structure. No expansions or additions are permissible.
he repairs are limited to 50% of the physical value of the existing structure and the following specific conditions.
The project consists of repairing the dunes system at beach access #4, as shown on the attached drawing and materials
list.
The proposed repairs shall be consistent with all other applicable local ordinances and North Carolina Building Code
standards.

(3) No new dunes shall be created as part of this project. Any proposal to expand beyond the ocean toe of the existing dune shall
require additional authorization. This exemption allows for re -distribution of material within the confines of the property, as well
as the filling of "gaps, voids or other open spaces" within the existing frontal dune.
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.
Sincerely,
J n ail, LPO
