RE: EXEMPTED PROJECT SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENCES WITHIN THE ESTUARINE
SHORELINE AREA OF ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERN (15A NCAC 07K .0208).
PROJECT LOCATION/ADDRESS – 1915 New River Inlet Road, North Topsail Beach

Dear Mr. Dabbs,

I have reviewed the information you have submitted to our office concerning the necessary filing
of an application for a CAMA Minor Development Permit under the Coastal Area Management Act and
have determined that the activity you propose of a single family residence is exempt from needing a
CAMA Minor Development Permit as long as it remains consistent with your project drawing received by
the DCM on November 16, 2020, and it also meets the conditions specified below. If your plans should
change and your project will no longer meet these conditions, please contact me before proceeding.

SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENCES WITHIN THE ESTAURINE SHORELINE AREA OF
ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERN EXEMPTED

1. All development shall be located at least 40 feet landward of the normal high water level from
estuarine waters. No ground disturbance or land disturbing activity shall occur within 40 feet of
the normal high water level.
2. The development may not exceed a 30% built upon area within 75 feet of the normal high water
level.
3. The development shall be consistent with all other applicable CAMA permit standards, North
Carolina Building Code standards, local ordinances and local land use plans in effect at the time
the exemption is granted.
4. This exemption does not allow for any fill or excavation within any wetlands or open water areas.
Any proposal to modify or alter the development plan as proposed will require additional
authorization from the Division of Coastal Management.

EX32-20

This exemption does not eliminate your requirements to obtain any other State, Federal or Local
authorization. Construction of the structure authorized by this exemption shall be completed by
December 31 of the third year of the issuance date of this exemption.

Sincerely,
Brad Connell
