(a)
When immediate action by a person performing a public service is required to protect life and public property from imminent danger, or to restore, repair, or maintain public works, levees, dikes, utilities, or services destroyed, damaged, or interrupted by natural disaster, serious accident, or in other cases of emergency, no permit from the commission shall be required prior to commencing such action if within three days of the disaster or the discovery of the danger, whichever occurs first, the person performing such action notifies the executive director of the commission of the type and location of the work undertaken pursuant to such action. Upon such notification, the executive director of the commission may waive the requirements for a permit or other authorization for such work.
