RE: STOP WORK ORDER AND NOTICE OF FAILURE TO APPLY FOR CAMA PERMIT
CASE #17-13C
Dear Mr. Anderson:
This letter confirms that on November 2, 2017,1 was onsite at Burton Farm Development Company's property
located at Lot 287 Needle Rush Court adjacent to Mill Creek located in Arapahoe, Pamlico County, North
Carolina. The purpose of the visit was to investigate unauthorized development of a bulkhead and retaining
wall within the Coastal Shoreline Area of Environmental Concern. No person may.undertake development in
a designated Area of Environmental Concern without first obtaining a permit in accordance with the Coastal
Area Management Act (CAMA); North Carolina General Statutes (N.C.G.S.) §113A-100 et seq.
Information gathered by me shows that you are undertaking, or are legally responsible for, development
including the construction of a bulkhead and retaining wall on the aforementioned property, and that no CAMA
Permit has been issued for this development activity. This activity is taking place in Public Trust Area as
designated by the NC Coastal Resources Commission and that is contiguous with the Neuse River.
You are hereby ordered to STOP WORK IMMEDIATELY and file the necessary application with this office
for a CAMA Permit by November 24, 2017. NO WORK MAY PROCEED UNTIL THE PERMIT IS ISSUED.
If you comply voluntarily, no further action will be necessary beyond the issuance of a permit.
Failure to file an application or continuation of work after receipt of this Notice may constitute a violation of
the Act and you may be subject to civil and/or criminal penalties as provided by N.C.G.S. §113A-126. Each
day that the development described in this Notice is continued or repeated may constitute a separate violation
that is subject to an additional assessment of $10,000. An injunction or criminal penalty may also be sought
to enforce any violation in accordance with N.C.G.S. §113A-126. In this case, there will be no assessment 1,
levied against you.

If Burton Farm Development Company continues to violate the CAMA, you should consider yourself
forewarned and expect a civil penalty to be levied against you consistent with the North Carolina
Administrative Code, Title 15A, Subchapter 7J, Section .0409, as adopted by the Coastal Resources
Commission.
Thank you for your time and cooperation in resolving this important matter. 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 STOP WORK ORDER
has been complied with. I request that you contact me immediately.
