| This bill also clarifies certain emergency actions that may be |
taken without a permit, if specified criteria are met, when the |
integrity of a seawall, bulkhead, retaining wall or similar |
structure in a coastal sand dune system is destroyed or |
threatened by specifying that protective materials may be left in |
place to shore up a structure no more than 18 months and by |
providing that actions taken to strengthen structures must be |
limited to those necessary to alleviate the imminent threat. |
Also, the list of those persons authorized to make determinations |
concerning the integrity of a structure is expanded. |
