SUBCOMMITTEE REPORTS
Betty Wells, who was in charge of assembling a list of environ-
mental groups , reported that thus far she has been able only
to gather a list for Fishers Island and New Suffolk. John Holzapfel
asked that she continue with her list and submit it at the next
meeting. He also suggested that she contact Ronnie Wacker of
the North Fork Environmental Council for assistance.
Bruce Loucka, volunteered to look into the Shellfish Sanitation
in local waters: He reported that he had been in contact with
Trustee Jay Bredemeyer. He stated that although the government
has listed NYS as nonconforming, the situation is not urgent
and matters are still very much up in the air.
Daniel Kujawski, who was responsible for contacting the Trustees
for dock and ramp specifications, reoprted that the Trustees
were able to supply him with a sheet of guidelines .
Margaret Feeney reported that the matter of overlays should wait
until October of this year, at which time the States Freshwater
Wetland maps would be available. At that time overlays could
be checked into.
Linda Cooper, assigned to check into Water Conservation Kits
which were distributed by other twons reported that she had re-
ceived the names of suppliers and informal price quotes. Prices
ranged from $ .36± to $ .76± per kit , with the higher priced kit
containing more water conservation "gadgets" .
John Holzapfel and Daniel Kujawski were unable to meet during
the month to work up a program for restructuring the CAC and
the role it plays within the town.
John Holzapfel did report on some legislation by the Trustees
regarding pump-out stations . All new marinas would be required
to install pumpout stations . At this point , the need to educate
the public about the facilities is of upmost importance. With
the local and state governments working together with marinas ,
pump-out stations will soon become more prevalent .

extending from top of bank seaward 6± ' and construction of an open
wood deck on south side of existing house. (Maximum dimensions
of deck will be 43 ' 6" x 16 ' 6" . The Council recommends disapproval
