Subsection (4) applies if—
a provision of this part provides for the application of the ambulatory boundary principles to a natural feature; and
the natural feature is other than, strictly, the boundary between land and water.

the toe of a dune
a depositional feature
The ambulatory boundary principles are taken to apply, and if the case requires, are taken to have applied, to the natural feature, to the greatest practicable extent, in the same way and to the same extent as they apply, or would have applied, to the boundary, between the land and the water, of land bounded by water.
