As Elly points out there should be some leancy on repairing exsisting structures. Nature does a little damage each year, and home owners shouldn't need to to be worried about permits to repair exsiting structures unless there is a significant change that alters the size, original intent, or will cause a major disturbance of the shore.
Also there needs to be leancy on managing shore front shrubs etc that interfear with exsisting docks etc.
All in all I understand what DES and lawmakers are trying to do.... However I think the risk of creating a system that is going to be to hard to enforce and is going to crate a mountian of paperwork.....
