For purposes of this chapter and Chapter 26 of this title (relating to Coastal Management Program), issuance of a dune protection permit or beachfront construction certificate are the only proposed actions by a subdivision that may adversely affect a coastal natural resource area and that therefore must be consistent with the CMP goals and policies provided such actions authorize:
  (1) construction activity that is located 200 feet or less landward of the line of vegetation and that results in the disturbance of more than 7,000 square feet of dunes or dune vegetation;
  (2) construction activity that results in the disturbance of more than 7,500 cubic yards of dunes;
  (3) a coastal shore protection project undertaken on a Gulf beach or 200 feet or less landward of the line of vegetation and that affects more than 500 linear feet of Gulf beach; or
  (4) a closure, relocation, or reduction in existing public beach access or public beach access designated in an approved local government beach access plan, other than for a short term.
