Current through Register No. 12, March 21, 2024

(a) Except as provided in (f) and g below, no later than January 15 of each year, the division shall mail mooring permit applications to current mooring permit holders. The division shall pre-enter all of the permit holder's information on the permit application relating to the applicant and the vessel, as provided on the applicant's current permit, except the date the applicant is required to specify when signing the application.

(b) Applications shall be mailed to the permit holder at the address specified by the permit holder on the mooring permit then in effect, or, if none is specified, to the permit holder's permanent address.

(c) A mooring permit holder shall only be able to reapply for a mooring permit by submitting an application for the same type of mooring permit currently held, except that, if eligible:

(1) A shorefront property mooring permit holder may submit a permit application for a commercial use or commercial mooring for hire mooring permit as described in Pda 502.07(b);

(2) A shorefront property owner holding a commercial mooring for hire mooring permit as described in Pda 502.07(b) may submit a permit application for a shorefront property mooring permit; and

(3) A general use, shorefront property, or commercial use mooring permit holder may notify the division in writing at the time of a mooring permit reapplication that the:
a. Mooring permit holder will not be using his or her mooring location between April 1 and March 31 of the following year; and

b. Mooring location is available for use as a temporary seasonal mooring pursuant to Pda 506.11.

(d) Any applicant filing a mooring permit application in accordance with this section shall return a completed application with the required information and documentation for the type of mooring applied for as specified in Pda 511, and the permit fee, to the division's office no later than March 1. Failure to meet the application deadline, whether or not the applicant received an application form with information pre-entered by the division, shall result in a denial in accordance with Pda 507, unless the applicant files a completed application with the required information, documentation, permit fee, and late application fee within 10 business days after March 1. An applicant who fails to comply with the March 1 deadline or the late application deadline shall not submit an application under this section, but may make an application pursuant to Pda 506.01, including possible placement on a wait list under Pda 509, unless the reason for the late application was one of the reasons listed in Pda 514.04(d)(1)c. or Pda 514.05(d)(1)c. If the applicant fails to comply with the March 1 deadline or the late application deadline for one of the reasons listed in Pda 514.04(d)(1)c. or Pda 514.05(d)(1)c. and wishes to appeal the permit denial to the authority under Pda 514.06, the applicant shall first file his or her application for reconsideration with the division director under Pda 514.03.

(e) If an application is in compliance with Pda 506.06, Pda 506.07, Pda 506.08, Pda 506.09, or Pda 506.10, as appropriate, and the division grants a permit under Pda 507, the division shall mail, by first class mail, a photocopy of the permit to the mooring permit applicant within 10 business days of permit issuance. The mailing shall be sent to the mooring permit applicant at the address specified by the applicant on the mooring permit application, or, if none is specified, to the applicant's permanent address.

(f) When a current mooring permit holder makes a mooring location available for a temporary seasonal mooring under (c)(3) above, the permit shall remain valid, provided that the permit holder continues to own the vessel named in the permit or complies with Pda 505.03 if the vessel named in the permit is modified or replaced.

(g) A general use mooring permit holder may submit an application to change the category of his or her existing mooring to commercial at any time during the permit year provided he or she meets all of the commercial mooring application requirements contained within Pda 506.08.
