B. Each application for a coastal erosion management
permit must be accompanied by the required fee or fees as established

issued.
(2) The address or location where the activity or operation
is to be conducted.

a single permit may be issued listing all activities permitted and
any conditions, restrictions or bonding requirements. Revocation of
a portion or portions of such consolidated permits will not invalidate
the remainder.
E. A coastal erosion management permit may be issued
with such terms and conditions as are necessary to ensure compliance
with the policies and provisions of Article 34 of the Environmental
Conservation Law, the Coastal Erosion Management Regulations implementing
Article 34 (6 NYCRR 505) and the laws and policies of the Village

management permit, a variance thereto, or other form of approval required
by this chapter and such activity is subject to permit, variance,
hearing or application procedures required by another federal, state
or local regulatory agency pursuant to any federal, state or local
law or ordinance, the Zoning Enforcement Officer shall, at the request
of the applicant, consolidate and coordinate the application, permit,
variance and hearing procedures as required by each regulatory agency
into a single comprehensive hearing and review procedure. However,
nothing contained in this section shall be deemed to limit or restrict
any regulatory agency which is properly a party to such a consolidation
review proceeding from the independent exercise of such discretionary
authority with respect to the issuance, denial or modification of
such permits, variances or other forms of approval as they may have
been granted by law.

necessary to carry out the purposes of this chapter.
The provisions of this chapter will take precedence
over any other laws, ordinances or codes in effect in the Village
of East Hampton to the extent that the provisions of this chapter
are more stringent than such other laws, ordinances or codes. A coastal
erosion management permit issued pursuant to this chapter does not
relieve the permit applicant from the responsibility of obtaining
other permits or approvals as may be necessary, nor does it convey
any rights or interest in real property.
All regulated activities are subject to the
review procedures required by the New York State Environmental Quality
Review Act (SEQR), Article 8 of the New York State Environmental Conservation
Law. The applicant may be required to submit information necessary
for compliance with SEQR, in addition to information required under
this chapter.
A violation of this chapter is hereby declared
to be an offense punishable by a fine not exceeding $250 or imprisonment
for a period not to exceed six months, or both. Each day's continued
violation of this chapter will constitute a separate additional violation.
Nothing herein will prevent the proper local authorities of the Village
of East Hampton from taking such other lawful actions or proceedings
as may be necessary to restrain, correct or abate any violation of
this chapter.
