We are looking to properly remove of several significant rocks off our shore that were placed there during the previous homeowner's tenure. The rocks are clearly there by manmade occurances and are therefore not natural by any means. The previous homeowner created a submerged rock structure on which to anchor their wooden dock. The dock is long gone, some posts are submerged and all of the rocks are still there. The rocks inhibit full access to our dock. Does this require a permit to relocate the rocks, as the rocks are not in their natural state, or can we just move them?

I know it seems like we need permits to do everything these days, but I figured I'd throw it out there for discussion.

How do you plan to move the rocks? Heavy equipment?
