Re: CAMA Major Permit 40-20
Dear Ms. MacPherson,
Jeremy Shugarts, Mayor ProTem
Hugh Cannady, Councilman
Trudy Solomon, Councilwoman
On behalf of the Town of Surf City, I am respectfully requesting an extension to CAMA Major Permit 40-20 for
Major Development in an Area of Environmental Concern and Excavation and/or filling pursuant to NCGS 113-
229. Specifically, the Town is seeking an extension to be able to provide beach nourishment activities along
the oceanfront for the Town of Surf City.
When the Town sought the authorization to complete a beach nourishment project through the issuance of
this Major Permit, it was unaware of funding authorization for the Surf City/North Topsail Beach Coastal Storm
Risk Management project. Due to the withdrawal of North Topsail Beach, the Town has been faced with delays
from the US Army Corps of Engineers and is seeking to potentially provide nourishment to our beaches in the
interim. The lack of protection and habitat is of concern and this permit will help the Town pursue those goals.
I am available for any questions you may have; I would also like to note that this permit was only valid for a
three-year period, and consideration of the previously noted setback as well as effects of COVID-19 should
provide for the Town additional opportunities to utilize the permit in which it was intended for.
Regards,
i
