Major development activities include any construction activity that is not defined as minor activity (e.g. bridges, boat ramps, marinas, dredging, community docks, commercial facilities, etc.).
Due to the complex nature of these types of projects, a pre-application meeting with a Critical Area Project Manager is highly encouraged before submitting a critical area permit application.
