Regular Session 2024
Title
Natural Resources, Dept of Conservation may permit residential coastal riparian owners to dredge to create living shorelines
Description

Under existing law, owners of riparian land may install certain structures upon their land.

This bill would provide that the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources may permit a residential coastal riparian owner to dredge sediment from within their riparian area for the construction of a living shoreline.

This bill would authorize the department to charge a fee for the dredging of sediment for this purpose at a rate less than that charged for the severance of materials from state-owned submerged lands.

This bill would also provide that the Alabama Department of Environmental Management may issue a consistency determination when applicable.
