Dear Mr. Lowman:
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 January 26, 2018, 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 and materials list submitted on January 23,
2018, and meets the conditions specified below. If your plans should change and your
project will no longer meet these conditions, please contact me before proceeding.
MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR - [15A NCAC 7K .0209(c)) - Any structure, or part thereof,
consistent with current CRC rules may be maintained, repaired or replaced in a similar
manner, size and location as the existing structure without requiring a permit, unless the

set out in G.S. 113A-103(5)b.5., Rule .0103 of this Subchapter and Rule 07J .0210.
1. the development must not disturb a land area of greater than 200 square feet
on a slope of greater than 10 percent;
2. the development must not involve removal, damage, or destruction of

Ms Bouffard:
I am writing to ask for a maintenance and repair exemption, as I need to add soil in my
front lawn. The property is located at 8537 Bald Eagle Lane.
I have apx 2000 ft. area to fix and figure it will take apx 24-36 yards. I will seed or turf
the area. I am attaching a map that shows the location of the work. There are 2 other
small areas apx 5x5 ft. shown on diagram that will have soil added. They will only need a
few wheel barrels of soil.
If you have any questions, please contact me at 910 686 0410.
I appreciate your help.
Thanks
Conrad
