Dear Mr. Morrison:
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 April 120111 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 April 1, 2011, and meets the conditions specified 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.
