 Find a Field Rep Locator Tool

Find a Field Rep logo

The Division of Coastal Management has launched a new interactive mapping tool to assist the public in identifying the appropriate field representative in the 20 coastal counties to start the CAMA permit application process in your area. The tool provides this information in a simple map format. The location query will generate a pop-up box with contact information to “Find a Field Rep”.

Landowners, contractors, and others can use the tool to identify the Division of Coastal Management field staff serving as the first point of contact for permitting inquiries and processes.
