Depending on the extent of the additions, you may qualify for an amendment to an existing, active permit or you may qualify to make an addition under the dock general permit. The general permit authorizes minor additions such as catwalks, roofs on existing pierheads, handrails, utilities, benches, storage boxes, sinks, and mooring piles. If you wish to increase the square footage of a dock or add a floating dock or boatlift, the dock general permit is not applicable and you will need to either modify your existing permit or apply for a new one. To amend a permit, please visit ePermitting to apply online.
