(b) Notwithstanding the prohibitions set forth in subdivision (a) of this section:

(1) the use of mechanically propelled vessels and aircraft is permitted on water bodies specified in subdivisions (a) and (d) of this section by or under the supervision of appropriate officials, in cases of sudden, actual and ongoing emergencies involving the protection or preservation of human life or intrinsic resource values, such as search and rescue operations, forest fires, or oil spills or similar, large-scale contamination of water bodies;

(2) the use of aircraft by administrative personnel on the water bodies specified in subdivisions (a) and (d) of this section is permitted upon written approval of the commissioner for a specific major administrative, maintenance, rehabilitation, or construction project if that project involves conforming structures or improvements, or the removal of non-conforming structures or improvements, provided that such use of aircraft will be confined to off-peak seasons for the area in question and normally will be undertaken at periodic intervals of three to five years, unless extraordinary conditions, such as fire, major blow-down or flood, mandate more frequent work or work during peak periods;
