All applications made to the commission pursuant to this chapter for erection of any permanent structure on tidelands or submerged lands or for depositing thereon or removal therefrom of any material shall be submitted by the commission to the Director of Parks and Recreation to make an examination and report concerning possible interference with the recreational use of lands littoral to the tidelands or submerged lands involved in such application. All such applications shall also be submitted by the commission to the Attorney General for approval as to compliance with the applicable provisions of law and of the rules and regulations of the commission. Should it be found by the commission that the action proposed in any such application would unreasonably interfere with the maintenance or use of the lands involved for recreational purposes or protection of shore properties, such application shall not be granted unless modified in a manner which may avoid such interference.
