Dear Mr. Bee:
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. Based on the information
provided, I 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 received by DCM on February 20, 2019, 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.
ACCESSORY STRUCTURE/USE
1. The work authorized under this exemption specifically includes construction of an 8' x 8' seating area
along the ocean side of the property. The final Project dimension(s) shall not exceed a footprint
Greater than 200 square feet.
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 be consistent with all applicable use standards and local land use plans in effect at
the time the exemption is granted.
5. The proposed development shall remain consistent with the attached work plan drawings.
6. This permit does not authorize expansion of the existing structure.
7. WITH EXCEPTION OF THE BEACH ACCESS WALKWAY, ALL DEVELOPMENT
AUTHORIZED UNDER THIS EXEMPTION SHALL BE LOCATED LANDWARD OF THE
FIRST LINE OF STABLE NATURAL VEGETATION (FLSNV).
This exemption to CAMA permit requirements does not alleviate the necessity of your obtaining any other State,
Federal or Local authorization. This exemption expires 90 days from the date of the letter.
STRUCTURAL ACCESSWAY EXEMPTED
The accessway must not exceed five 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 applicable local ordinances and N. C.
Building Code standards.
4. No portion of the proposed walkway may extend beyond the mean high water boundary, nor shall it
extend onto the wet sand beach. The walkway shall terminate as close as possible to the toe of the existing
frontal dune.

Jason Dail
