The certified shoreline survey shall be prepared m accordance with the Department of Land and Natural Resources Rules of Practice and Procedure. A request to waive the need to prepare a certified shoreline survey may be submitted in writing to the Planning Director. Circumstances that may warrant the issuance of a certified shoreline survey waiver include cases where the entire shoreline fronting the subject property is ''fixed'' by a man- made structure such as a seawall or revetment or when the proposed development will be situated at a substantial distance from the shoreline. 2.A site plan of the subject property, drawn to scale, showing all existing and proposed structures, uses and activities. Information such as the extent of any land alteration (grading) activities and the location of a cliff or other distinctive land features should be shown on the plans. Photographs of the subject property and the project site showing existing conditions are not required but would greatly facilitate the review process. 3.If the proposed activity is the construction, enlargement, or reconstruction of a single- family residence, the application must be accompanied by a floor plan including the total floor area* calculation. Please note that pursuant to Hawai‘i Revised Statutes, any single-family residence seven thousand five hundred square feet of floor area, or greater, will require a Special Management Area (Major) Use Permit. * Floor area shall be the total area of all floors of a building(s) associated with the single family residence, including a basement, measured along the exterior walls of such building(s). The floor area of a building(s), or portion thereof, not provided with surrounding exterior walls shall be the usable area under the horizontal projection of the roof or floor above (ie. storage, garages, carports, and lanais under roof are to be included). 4.Any other plans or information that may be required by the Planning Director. A Final Environmental Assessment or Final Environmental Impact Statement which has been declared adequate under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) or under Chapter 343, HRS, may constitute a valid filing under this section. The submittal of an incomplete application will delay official acceptance by the Department. Furthermore, additional information may be requested by the Department during the course of the review process. If you have any questions about your submittal, please contact the Planning Department prior to finalizing your submittal. Please note that pages 4-8 of the application do not need to accompany your submittal. Revised 5/22/12 4
