You are also in violation of the State's Dredge and Fill Act which requires a permit from the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources before undertaking any excavating or filling in any estuarine waters, tidelands, marshlands, or state-owned lakes pursuant to N.C.G.S. 113-229. Therefore, I also request that you immediately CEASE AND DESIST such unauthorized activity and contact me about this matter as well. Violations of the State's Dredge and Fill Act may be enforced by a criminal penalty or a civil action for damages or an injunction in accordance with N.C.G.S. 113-229. Based upon review of the Coastal Area Management Act, Coastal Resource Commission's rules, and the local jurisdiction's Land Use Plan, the activity you have undertaken appears consistent with the guidelines for Areas of Environmental Concern. Therefore, restoration of the impacted area is not requested at this time. However, please be advised that upon request, you must be able to provide us proof that you have given your adjacent riparian property owners notice of this unauthorized development and provided them the opportunity to comment to the Division of Coastal Management. Should you be requested to provide this documentation, you must provide confirmation that a written statement has been obtained, signed by the adjacent riparian property owners, indicating that they have no objection to the completed work; or you must provide confirmation that the adjacent riparian property owners have been notified by certified mail of the completed work. This notice shall instruct adjacent property owners to provide any comments on the completed development in writing to this Division within ten (10) days of receipt of the notice and shall indicate that no response from them will be interpreted as not having any objection. Thank you for your time and cooperation in resolving this important matter. If you have any questions about this or related matters, please call me at (252) 808-2808. Upon my submission of an enforcement report to the District Manager, you will be notified as to the amount of a civil assessment for undertaking development without first obtaining the proper permits. 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. A site inspection will be made in the near future to determine whether this REQUEST TO CEASE AND DESIST has been complied with. I request that you contact me immediately about these important matters.
