As of January 3rd, 2006 Fire Island National Seashore (FINS) updated policies and procedures for reviewing and issuing permits and approvals for private bulkheads within the Seashore. This is to be the park policy until further revisions from either a new rule, plan, or procedure is developed.
The purpose of this guidance is to provide for consistent treatment and a clear understanding of compliance requirements and park policy concerning applications for special use permits for the repair and replacement of bulkheads on private property.
