structure is illegal.
Therefore, the stairs must t:~. removed immediately. If not
removed within thirty days of this letter, a summons will be
issued.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact

Unauthorized Construction on our property
It has been brought to our attention that the construction of a stairway to the
beach has been built on our property. This constitutes an unauthorized encroachment on
our property. On Saturday, March 22, 1997, we came upon a newly constructed stairway
to the beach, dug into the bluff on our property. As owners, we were not consulted nor
informed in any manner or fashion of your intent to build. Consequently, we did not give
our consent, This is a clear violation of our deed, and of all covenants attached to the
subdivision. In addition, it establishes a negative environmental impact on the bluff
Further said construction violates Southold Town Law and State DEC
Regulations of the L. I. Shoreline. Without required permits, this construction places our
property in violation of Town and State Law and subject to costly fines and penalties.
Accordingly, please take the steps necessary to correct this violation forthwith.
If, in thirty days, the construction remains in violation, the project will be considered
abandoned, and will be removed at your sole cost and expense. Use of the walking r.o.w.
to the beach will continue to be respected,as always.

Dear Mr. Bredemeyer,

Huntington, N.Y. 11743
7/7/93
I am responding to your correspondence of 2/26/93, regarding the excessive
storm damage on the bluff and stairway on L. t. Sound that I had reported to you
on February 6, 1993. First, I wish to thank you for inspecting the site on my
property on February 18, 1993. With summer in full bloom, I feel it is necessary
to take defensive actions now to avert further environmental damage in the near
future.
I ~vitl respond to each point you raised in your letter. FIRST: My stair~vay was
built according to DEC regulations by Permit dated October 3, 199 I. (Enclosed
please find a copy of the permit). The stair~ay to the east of mine is on my
neighbor's property. I include drawings to scale of my stairway, as was approved
by the DEC, as ~vell as the site plan ~vhich shows the location of the stairway on
the bluff.
SECOND: Working upon the advice of the U.$. Department of Agriculture and Soil
Conservation Service, and ~vith financial considerations, I have prepared a
mark-up, to scale, of the original cross section approved by the DEC. This cross
section shows the following: A. The original bluff line as it existed prior to the
nor'easter of 12/92; B. The bluff line as it exists today; C. The cross-hatched
areas on this cross section diagram is the area to be repaired by soil
replenishment as recommendated by U.S. Depart. of Ag. & Soil Conservation
Service. Approximately 80 to 1 O0 yards of bankrun ~v it 1 be del i vered from the top
of the bluff by truck until an angle of 4S degrees is achieved. Then, a small b
ulldozer positioned on the beach above the mean high tide line, ~vill reposition
boulders at the ne~v bluff line to buttress this highly sensitive area. Planting of
recommended vegetation on the bluff ~vill follo~v in the fall.
These stabilization efforts, hopefully, will hold the tine on further
environmental damage caused by severe storms in the future. I include a check
for $200.00 to cover the fee.
Sincerely,
Peter ^ebi sher

* [~ INDIVIDUAL
DATE JANUARY 28, 1993
[] GROUP [] UNIT OF GOVERNMENT
SITUATION: Landowner requested teehnicaI aid regarding stabilization of the bluff on
her property on Cabot's Woods Road in Cutchogue. & site inspection on January 25, 1993
found that the property is undeveloped, except for ~ ooden stairs with a landing which
lead to the beach. Storm tides ,during December cau:;ed severe toe erosion to the bluff,
resulting in a nearly vertical bluff iace. The bluff i.-~ relatively low and the lower
two-thirds of the bluff have been effected. Soils on tb.e bluff are fine textured, which
is why the steep bluff face is pe~.sisting.
Landward from the bluff top there is a shallow closed depression. Beyond the depr~es-
sion, the land rises steeply and then gently slopes toward the south. Approximately
half way on the steep slope, there are stakes in the ground which appear to delineate
the proposed house location.
SUGGESTED SOLUTION(S) Fill the bluff face to form a slope no steeper than one foot
~rertical per one foot horizontal (45 degrees). This s~ope should be continuous from
the existing bluff top to the beach. Fill material shomld be loamy sand or sand and
should not contain debris. Vegetate the new bluff face with 'Cape' American beachgrass
and bunch plantings of 'Arnot' Bristly locust, Rugoss rose, and/or beach plum. See
attached list of suppliers and plant information sheets.
Consideration should be given to alleviate two potential problems. These problems relate
to the existin~ closed depression close to the bluff tcp and the proposed house location.
The closed depression has a significant amount of stor~ water surfaco runoff which flows
to it. This water infiltrates into the ground and is held by the fine textured soil, add-
ing weight along the bluff top. Due to the eroded bluff face, the soil weight will now
threaten the stability of the upper one-third of the b~uff, Filling the bluff face will~
reduce this threat; however, recession of the bluff face should be expected.
To alleviate this problem a catch basin with a surface inlet grate could be installed in
the depression. A pipe should be installed from tho catch basin to the beach in order
to outlet storm water runoff.
The second potential problem involves the proposed hJuse location. Situating the house
on the steep slope aboxre the bluff top can accelerate erosion of the bluff. The potential
acceleration is due to an increase of storm water suriaca runoff. Impervious areas, such
as roofs, driveways, walks and patios dramatically in,:rease rates and amounts of runoff.
If possible the house should be located beyond the steep slope. If this is not possible,
gutters downspouts and drywelis should be used to infiltrate runoff from all impervious
areas into the ground. Precautions should be made to control runoff and sedimentation
