....My dock permit is in my hand! It won`t be completed for this season but I am looking forward to next year. I (and the admiral) have had enough of my present arrangement, 4 anchors, (I just didn`t trust one each off the bow and stern) plus bow and stern lines to trees on shore.
 
Sweet! What kind of permitting process did you have to go through? We had 5 different agencies here from the EPA to the Army Corps of Engineers plus local conservation commissions and state and local government. Did you do it all yourself or did you have your dock guy do it? The process is maddening!
 
Thanks, I went thru a engineer, CTDEP required both an upland survey and a site survey showing depths and vegetation, etc. I suppose a diligent individual could sub out everything and get it done, but it would have driven me over the edge! I recommend the engineer but remember to stay very hands on because it is your dock.
I went thru, the Ct DEP, Army corp of engineers, Ct fisheries, the local inland wetlands and the local building dept., it also went to public notice so any objections from John Q. Public had to be addressed. like I sez....I`m happy it`s done.
