OCEAN HAZARD AREA OF ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERN
Dear Mr. Mortimer
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 March 9, 2017,
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 dated
May 19, 2017, and meet the conditions specified below. If your plans should
change and your project will no longer meet these conditions, please contact me
before proceeding.
STRUCTURAL ACCESSWAY EXEMPTED
1. The accessway must not exceed four feet in width and shall provide
only pedestrian access to the ocean beach.
2. The accessway must be constructed so as to make negligible
alterations to the frontal dunes. This means that the accessway must
be constructed on raised posts or pilings of five feet or less in depth, so
that wherever possible only the posts or pilings touch the frontal dunes
without any alteration to the dunes. In no case shall the frontal dune
be altered so as to significantly diminish its capacity as a protective
barrier against flooding and erosion.
3. Construction of the accessway be shall consistent with all other--ECEiVED
applicable local ordinances and N. C. Building Code standarS. WILMINGTON, NC
