Construction of a normal protective. bulkhead common to single family residences. A normal protective bulkhead includes those structural and non- structural developments installed at or near, and parallel to the OHWM mark for the sole purpose of protecting an existing single family residence and appurtenant structures from loss or damage by erosion. A normal protective bulkhead is not exempt if constructed for the purpose of creating dry land. When a vertical or near vertical wall is being constructed or reconstructed, not more than one cubic yard of fill per one foot of wall may be used as backfill. When an existing bulkhead is being repaired by construction of a vertical wall fronting the existing wall, it shall be constructed no further waterward of the existing bulkhead than is necessary for construction of new footings. When a bulkhead has deteriorated such that the OHWM has been established by the presence and action of water landward of the bulkhead, the replacement bulkhead must be located at or near the actual OHWM. Alternative bank stabilization projects may also be considered a normal protective bulkhead when any structural elements are consistent with the above requirements and when the project has been approved by the Department of Fish and Wildlife.
