APPLICATION FOR

CAMA MINOR o
Coastal Management DEVELOPMENT
ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY
PERMIT
In 1974, the North Carolina General Assembly passed the Coastal Area Management Act �\
(CAMA) and set the stage for guiding development in fragile and productive areas that
border the state's sounds and oceanfront Along with requiring special care by those who
build and develop, the General Assembly directed the Coastal Resources Commission
(CRC) to implement clear regulations that minimize the burden on the applicant. ti
This application for a minor development permit under CAMA is part of the N
Commission's effort to meet the spirit and intent of the General Assembly. It has been N
designed to be straightforward and require no more time or effort than necessary from
the applicant. Please go over this folder with the Local Permit Officer(LPO)for the
locality in which you plan to build to be certain that you understand what information he
or she needs before you apply.
Under CAMA regulations, the minor permit is to be issued within 25 days once a
complete application is in hand. Often less time is needed if the project is simple. The
process generally takes about 18 days.You can speed the approval process by making
certain that your application is complete and signed, that your drawing meets the
specifications given inside and that your application fee is attached.
Other permits are sometimes required for development in the coastal area.While these
are not CAMA-related,we urge you to check with the Local Permit Officer to determine
which of these you may need.A list is included on page two of this folder.
We appreciate your cooperation with the North Carolina Coastal Management Program
and your willingness to build in a way that protects the resources of our beautiful and
productive coast

TIPS FOR ADJACENT RIPARIAN OWNER NOTIFICATION&WAIVER FORMS
CAMA Regulations require notice of proposed development to the Adjacent Riparian Property Owners(15A
NCAC 7J.0204(b)(5)). Proof of actual notice (a sign-off by the owner on this form) or certified mail return
receipts(showing delivery of notice)are needed,or any other method which satisfies the Local Permit Officer
(LPO)that a good faith effort has been made to provide notice.
The purpose of this notice is to make adjacent riparian property owners aware of the proposed development
so that they have an opportunity to provide comments(or potentially object to)the proposed development,
and to give DCM or the LPO an opportunity to consider these comments/objections before a permit decision
is made. Permission" of adjacent property owners is not necessarily required for DCM to issue a permit;
however, permission must be obtained for certain types of proposed developments if they fall within a 15'
setback area along the riparian access area of the adjacent property,as determined solely by DCM. It is in
the applicant's best interest to provide comprehensive and accurate notice so that any concerns or objections
• can be resolved early in the permit review process.In addition,if the adjacent riparian property owner appeals
the permit decision, insufficient notice could be a basis for granting such an appeal.
Who is an Adjacent Riparian Property Owner?
•
What is Adjacent? (Note: DCM reads this broadly to ensure comment by Potentially impacted neighbors)
• A property thafshares a boundary line with the site of proposed development;AND
• A property that fronts a natural or manmade waterbody that is connected to coastal waters and .
can support some form of navigation, even a kayak or canoe, including a common canal system
or a manmade basin.
• Easement holders?Yes, if the easement could be impacted by the proposed development.
• Streets/Roads? Only if the street/road could be impacted by the proposed development.This
might include street-ends which might be used,for parking and beach access.
• 'Holders of recognized submerged lands claims/shellfish franchises.
What is Riparian?
Do the boundaries of the adjacent property legally intersect with the water at mean high tide?If there is a
question about whether an adjacent property is considered "riparian, please reach out to DCM Staff -
especially on the oceanfront beach where there may be undeveloped parcels on the beach or in the water.
Who/What is a Property Owner?
For private individuals(or families),send notice to the address listed on the tax card.If the property is owned
by an Inc. or LLC, please send notice to the person listed as the registered agent on the.NC Secretary of
State's Corporations Look Up site: https://www.sosnc.gov/search/index/corp. For Condominiums or
neighborhoods with an owners' association (HOA/POA), send notice to the association (which is usually a
corporation,for which you send notice to its registered agent).
What is Notice, and how do I ensure it is received?
• You can meet with your adjacent property owner, provide a description or drawing of the .
proposed development, and`aCVfemao sigh his form and return it to DCM;OR -
• You can hand-deliver this form and a description or drawing,and ask your neighbor to return it to
DCM (consider providing them with a stamped envelope); OR
• You can mail this form by USPS Certified Mail, return receipt requested (the Green Card). If you
choose this option,you must provide either the signed &returned green card OR track the
certified mail package number on USPS.GOV's online tracking system, and provide the tracking
print-out as proof of delivery to DCM
If you have any questions about this process, please reach out to DCM Staff and DCM Legal Counsel
and we will work to answer your questions.

concrete slat top. Please refer to the attached map for details. In order
to be compliant, I am requesting for you, as adjacent landowners, to
