Section 07H .1102 - APPROVAL PROCEDURES
(a) An applicant for a General Permit under this Subchapter shall contact the Division of Coastal Management and request approval for development.
(b) The applicant shall provide:
(1) provide site location, dimensions of the project area, and the applicant's name and address, confirmation that the applicant has obtained a written statement, signed by the adjacent riparian property owners indicating that they have no objections to the proposed work; or
(2) confirmation that the applicant has notified adjacent riparian property owners by certified mail of the proposed work. The notice shall instruct adjacent property owners to provide written comments on the proposed development to DCM within 10 days of receipt of the notice and indicate that no response shall be interpreted as no objection. DCM shall review all comments and determine, based on their relevance to the potential impacts of the proposed project, if the proposed project can be approved by a General Permit. If DCM determines that the project exceeds the guidelines established by the General Permit process provided in 15A NCAC 07J .1100, DCM shall notify the applicant that an application for a major development permit shall be required.
(c) No work shall begin until an on-site meeting is held with the applicant and a DCM representative so that the proposed alignment may be marked. A General Permit to proceed with the proposed development shall be issued if the DCM representative finds that the application meets all the requirements of this Rule. Construction of the bulkhead or riprap revetment shall be completed within 120 days of the issuance of the general permit or the authorization shall expire and it shall be necessary to re-examine the structure alignment to determine if the general permit may be reissued.
