The Sand Fencing Guidelines are general requirements for the installation of sand fences to trap sand on the beach seaward of the Coastal Construction Control Line. The state of Florida requires permits for sand fences and other coastal construction seaward of the CCCL under section 161.053, Florida Statutes, of the Beach and Shore Preservation Act and the CCCL Rule Chapters 62B-33 and 62B-34, Florida Administrative Code. For sand fence questions consult these rules and regulations, email cccl@dep.state.fl.us, call 850/245-2094 or look up a CCCL field inspector at www.FloridaDEP.gov/CCCL.
