2) Prior to the initiation of construction within the Ocean Hazard AEC, the permittee shall stake, and a
Division representative shall approve, the first line of stable, natural vegetation and the corresponding
small and large structure setbacks. In this case, the first line of stable natural vegetation is defined as the
vegetation line that existed prior to the onset of the most recent large-scale beach renourishment project.
These setback determinations shall replace those done at the time the permit application was processed
and approved. Construction shall begin within sixty days of this determination or the measurement is
void and shall be re-established. In the case of a major shoreline change within that period, a new
setback determination shall be required before construction begins.
3) All structures shall be located entirely landward of the appropriate small and/or large structure
development setback lines.
4) All structures authorized by this permit shall be relocated or dismantled when they become imminently
threatened by changes in shoreline configuration. A structure(s) shall be relocated or dismantled within
two (2) years of the time when it becomes imminently threatened, and in any case, upon its collapse or
subsidence. However, if natural shoreline recovery or beach re-nourishment takes place within two (2)
years of the time the structure becomes imminently threatened, so that the structure is no longer
imminently threatened, then it need not be relocated or dismantled at that time. This condition shall not
affect the permittee's right to seek authorization of temporary measures allowed under CRC rules.

modification of this permit. Contact a Division of Coastal Management representative at (910) 796-
7215 for this determination.

NOTE: An Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plan shall be required for this project. This plan shall be

plan to the Department of Environment and Natural Resources, Land Quality Section, 127
Cardinal Drive Extension, Wilmington, NC 28405.
6) In order to protect water quality, runoff from construction shall not visibly increase the amotint of
suspended sediments in adjacent waters.
7) Appropriate sedimentation and erosion control devices, measures or structures shall be implemented to
ensure that eroded materials do not enter adjacent wetlands, watercourses and property (e.g. silt fence,
diversion swales or berms, etc.).
