CONSISTENT WITH CURRENT RULES [15A NCAC 07K .0209(c))
PROJECT ADDRESS — 330 East First Street
AREA OF ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERN — Ocean Hazard
Dear Property Owner:
I have reviewed the information submitted to this office in your inquiry concerning the
necessary filing of an application for a minor development permit under the Coastal Area
Management Act. After making a site inspection on October 20, 2009, 1 have determined
that the activity you propose is exempt from needing a minor development permit as long
as it remains consistent with your site drawing and materials list submitted on October 20,
2009, and meets the conditions specked below. If your plans should change and your
project will no longer meet these conditions, please contact me before proceeding.
MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR — [15A NCAC 7K .0209(c)] - Any structure, or part thereof,
consistent with current CRC rules may be maintained, repaired or replaced in a similar
manner, size and location as the existing structure without requiring a permit, unless the
repair or replacement would be in violation of the criteria set out below. This exemption
applies to those projects that are not within the exclusion for maintenance and repairs as
set out in G.S. 113A-103(5)b.5., Rule .0103 of this Subchapter and Rule 07J .0210.
1. the development must not disturb a land area of greater than 200 square feet
on a slope of greater than 10 percent;
2. the development must not involve removal, damage, or destruction of
threatened or endangered animal or plant species;
3. the development must not alter naturally or artificially created surface drainage
channels;
4. the development must not alter the land form or vegetation of a frontal dune;
5. the development must not be within 30 feet of normal water level or normal
high water level; and;
6. development must be consistent with all applicable use standards and local
land use plans in effect at the time the exemption is granted.

Structures may be repaired in a similar manner, size and location as the original structure.
No expansions or additions are permissible and the following speck conditions apply:
1. The project consists of the repair and replacing of the beach access steps,
repairing a 12' x 16' sundeck and replacing steps on the rear of the house, as
shown on the attached drawing and materials list dated October 20, 2009.
2. The proposed repairs shall be consistent with all other applicable local ordinances
and North Carolina Building Code standards.
This exemption to CAMA permit requirements does not alleviate the necessity of your

exemption expires 90 days from the date of the letter.
