Emergency activities that are necessary to protect
public health, safety or welfare, including preventing damage to natural
resources, may be undertaken without obtaining a coastal erosion management
permit. Whenever emergency activities are undertaken, damage to natural
protective features and other natural resources must be prevented,
if possible, or minimized.
The Administrator shall be notified by the person
responsible for taking the emergency measures within two working days
from the commencement of an emergency measure and a description of
the problem and activities provided. The description must be in written
form, outline the public health or safety or resource for which protection
was sought and relate the measures which were taken to secure the
protection.
