Prior to calling the meeting to order, Chairman Holzapfel and members met with Councilwoman Ellen Larsen and discussed possible wetland violations which were discovered during the course of the Council's regular inspections. The meeting was called to order at 5:20 P.M. by Chairman John Holzapfel. Present were: John Holzapfel, Chairman Daniel Kujawski,Member Betty Wells, Member Margaret Feeney, Member Bruce Loucks, Member Heather Tetrault, Member Linda Cooper, Secretary Absent was: John Tuthill, Member REPORTS Margaret Feeney and Betty Wells attended the Council on Environmental Quality held August 31, 1988. Margaret reported that those present were supportive of plans to have Peconic Bay designated a critical environ- mental area. Also on the agenda was a proposal for the protection of established fisheries. The proposal was, supported by most and it was suggested that the shellfish industry fall under the same protection. Also discussed was the possibility of banning plastic "six-pack" rings which are causing harm to birds and fowl when their heads get intangled - in the rings. Most were against the proposal because it did not truly address the problem. The proposal would require the rings be made of biodegradable material but would still allow the same configuration which has been causing the problem. Betty Wells, who also attended the meeting, stated that she felt the Southold CAC should stay involved with the CEQ. (Southold CAC is allowed a vote on issues which are of concern to Southold Town.) It was decided that John Holzapfel would pass the agenda for the meetings which are of importance to Southold Town along to the CAC secretary so she could distribute to members. Since the meetings of the CEQ are scheduled during the day, CAC members would decide who would be available to attend. ' 9-20-88 Page 2 Daniel Kujawski brought in a ,biodegradable, "plastic bag" which are used extensively in the New England States. The bags are made of cornstarch and have the same advantages of a regular plastic bag without the problems of disposal., The bag costs 30% more than the regular plastic bag but cost:=20o -less than a regular paper bag. Mr. Kujawski plans to research the matter further, getting technical information, etc. Once the CAC has all the information, it would then contact the local grocery stores and businesses and try to encourage them to use the biodegradable bag. Heather Tetrault reported on the runoff situation. Each year the Town budgets for one runoff project. The cur-rent project is at Hobart Road, Southold. She reported there is a bill before the -County Legislature to bar the Suffolk County Department of Public Works from using pipes to carry runoff into waterways.
