Dear Pam & Sherman Whittaker:
I have reviewed the information submitted to this office in your inquiry concerning the necessary filing of an application for a
CAMA Minor Development Permit under the Coastal Area Management Act. After making a site inspection on July 28, 2020, 1
have determined that the activity you propose is exempt from needing a CAMA Minor Development Permit, as long as it remains
consistent with your project drawing, submitted on July 9, 2020, and it also meets the conditions specified below. If you plans
should change and your project will no longer meet these conditions, please contact me before proceeding.
SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENCES WITHIN THE ESTAURINE SHORELINE AEC EXEMPTED
1. All development shall be constructed more than 40 feet landward of normal high water or normal water level and
shall not exceed a 30% impervious coverage within 75 feet of the normal high water or normal water level;
2. No land disturbing activity within the 40 feet buffer area;
3. The development shall be consistent with all other applicable CAMA permit standards, NC Building Code
standards, local ordinances and local land use plans in effect at the time the exemption is granted;
4. This exemption allows for the construction of a generally shore perpendicular access to the water, provided that
the access shall be no wider than six feet. The access may be constructed out of materials such as wood,
composite material, gravel, paver stones, concrete, brick, or similar materials. Any access constructed over
wetlands shall be elevated at least three feet above any wetland substrate as measured from the bottom of the
decking.
This exemption to CAMA permit requirements does not alleviate the necessity of your obtaining any other State, Federal or Local
authorization. Construction of the structure authorized by this exemption shall be completed by December 31 of the third year of
the issuance date of this exemption.
Sincerely,
V v'
