Dear Mr. and Mrs. Deblasio:
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 January 11, 2023, 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 1/11/2022, 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 — [G.S. 11 3.103(5)(B)(5) and 15A NCAC 71K.0103(a)] - Maintenance and repairs (excluding
replacement) necessary to repair damage to structures caused by the elements are specifically excluded from the definition of
development under the conditions and in the circumstances set out in G.S. 11 3A-1 03(5)(b)(5). Individuals required to take such
measures within an AEC shall contact the local CAMA representative for consultation and advice before beginning work.
Structures may be repaired in a similar manner, size, and location as the original structure. No expansions or additions are
permissible. The repairs are limited to 50% of the market value of the existing structure and the following specific conditions.
1. The project consists of the repair of the Dune Crossover Accessway,
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 obtaining any other State, Federal or Local
authorization and N.C. Building Permits. This exemption expires 90 days from the date of the letter
Sincerely,
Tina Marlin, DCM Field Representative
