Easley, Govemor CERTIFIED MAIL RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED Ed Moore Post Office Box 681660 Riverside, Missouri 64168 Donna D, Moffitt, Director RE: NOTICE OF VIOLATION CAMA VIOLATION #02-31A Dear Mr. Moore: William G. Ross Jr., Secretary October 11, 2002 Information gathered by the Division of Coastal Management shows that Major Development has been undertaken on your property, in violation of the Coastal Area Management Act. In accordance with North Carolina General Statutes (hereinafter abbreviated NCGS) 113A-118, no person, firm of corporation may engage in Major Development within a designated Area of Environmental Concern without first obtaining a permit from the North Carolina Coastal Resources Commission. A recent site visit on an adjacent property revealed that a dock has been constructed in the adjacent man-made canal from your property, more specifically described as Lot 48, Section M, Colington Harbour Subdivision, in Dare County. Review of our records indicates that the dock was built without authorization. In accordance with the specific 'conditions established in 15A of the North Carolina Administrative Code, subsection 07H .1205(o): " Piers, docks and boat houses shall not interfere with the access to any riparian property, and shall have a minimum setback of 15 feet between any part of the pier and the adjacent property lines extended into the water at the points that they intersect the shoreline. The minimum setbacks provided in the rule may be waived by the written agreement of the adjacent riparian owner(s), or when two adjoining riparian owners are co -applicants. Should the adjacent property be sold before construction of the pier commences, the applicant shall obtain a written agreement with the new owner waiving the minimum setback and submit it to the Division of Coastal Management prior to initiating any development of the pier, dock, or boathouse. The line of division of areas of riparian access shall be established by drawing a line along the channel or.deep water in front of the property, then drawing a line perpendicular to the line of the channel so that it intersects with the shore at the point the upland property line meets the water's edge. Application of this Rule may be aided by reference to the approved diagram in Paragraph (q) of this Rule illustrating the rule as applied to various shoreline configurations. Copies of the diagram may be obtained from the Division of Coastal Management. When shoreline configuration is such that a perpendicular alignment cannot be achieved, the pier shall be aligned to meet the intent of this Rule to the maximum extent practicable." 1367 U.S.17 South, Elizabeth City, North Carolina 27909 Phone: 252-264-39011 FAX: 252.264-37231 Internet: http://dcm2.enr.state,nc.us An Equal Opportunity 1 Affirmative Action Employer - 50% Recycled 110% Post Consumer Paper The dock in question has been constructed within 15' of the adjacent riparian properties within the Estuarine and Public Trust Area of Environmental Concern, designated Areas of Environmental Concern, and no permit has been issued for it. Therefore, I have concluded that you are in violation of the permit requirement of the Coastal Area Management Act. A civil assessment of up to $2,500.00 may be assessed against any violator, and each day that the development described in this Notice is continued or repeated may constitute a separate violation, which is subject to an additional assessment of $2,500.00. An injunction or criminal penalty may also be sought to enforce any violation as per NCGS 113A-126. It is the policy of the Coastal Resources Commission to assess as a minimum, a civil penalty of $200.00 against violations of this nature. This is done to recoup some of the costs of investigating the violation and/or to compensate the public for any damage to its natural resources. Whether a higher amount will be assessed will depend on several factors, including the nature and area of the resources affected and the extent of the damage to them. The activity undertaken is not consistent with the Division's standards at this time. In order to retain the structure, as constructed, you must obtain written waivers from the adjacent riparian property owners stating that they have no objections to the development by waiving the 15' setback requirement. Failure to do so will require that the dock be set the minimum 15' from the adjacent riparian line. The enclosed Restoration Plan also describes the action necessary to bring this project into compliance with the Act. Provided you intend to cooperate with my request within twenty (20) days from the date that you receive this letter, please sign one of the attached Restoration Plans and return it to me in the enclosed, self-addressed envelope. No response from you within ten (10) days of receipt of this letter will be interpreted, as a refusal to cooperate and result in a Notice of continuing violation and a court order will be sought ordering restoration. Each day that the development described in this Notice continues beyond the restoration deadline may constitute a separate violation, subject to an additional assessment of $2,500.00. An injunction or criminal penalty may also be sought to enforce any violation in accordance with I I3A-126 of the North Carolina General Statutes. The relevant statutes and regulations are available from this office, and I am willing to assist you in complying with the requirements of these laws. If you have any questions, or I can be of any assistance, do not hesitate to contact me at the Elizabeth City District Office at (252) 264-3901. Sincerely, Lynn W.
