B. provide a balance between the protection and
utilization of public waters; and
C. encourage the removal of existing structures which
do not serve the public interest from the beds of public
waters at the earliest practicable date.
Subp. 2. Scope. This part applies to the placement,
construction, reconstruction, repair, relocation, abandonment,
or removal of any structure placed on or in public waters.
Subp. 3. (Deleted from this document for brevity)
Subp. 4. No permit required. No permit is required for
the following activities, unless prohibited under subpart 3:

if:
(1) privately owned ramps do not exceed 12 feet
in width and do not extend more than ten feet beyond the
shoreline or into water more than four feet in depth, whichever

up to five cubic yards of crushed rock, gravel, clean sand, or
small stone are allowed to provide a stable base or maintain use
of the ramp;
(2) publicly owned ramps do not exceed 36 feet in
width and do not extend more than 30 feet waterward of the
shoreline or into water more than four feet in depth, whichever

small stone are allowed to provide a stable base or maintain use
of the ramp. The use of coffer dams constructed of metal sheet
piling or other portable materials is allowed to construct and
maintain public boat launching ramps if all materials are
completely removed from public waters within 30 days of
completion of the project;
(3) the ramp is constructed of gravel, natural
rock, concrete, steel matting, or other durable inorganic
material not exceeding seven inches in thickness; and
