Environmental Conservation SPDES General Permit for Stormwater Discharges
from Construction Activity, Permit No. GP-0-15-002. Town Engineering will

stormwater management system prior to discharge. Upon approval of the
stormwater design as compliant with Chapter 236, the applicant will be provided
with a letter signed by the Town Supervisor stating that the DEC will have direct
oversight of the SPDES permit and the SWPPP for this project.

Southold Town Planning Board Public Meetinq — March 8, 2021 — Page 9

or lower is not restricted. Products with a number higher than 0.67
may only be used if a new lawn is being established or a soil test

applicant contact Michelle Gibbons from the NYSDEC at (631)-444-0306 for
guidance.
19.Submit a Final Plat Application meeting all the requirements of Section 240-20
of the Southold Town Code. Due to the reduction in the number of lots from the
original proposal, the $3,300.00 submitted in April 2010 was overpaid by
