Nappa, Councilwoman AYES: Nappa, Doroski, Mealy, Doherty, Evans, Russell r Updated: 10/25/2023 9:07 AM by Lynda Rudder Page 2 i Y' TOWN BOARD COASTAL EROSION HAZARD BOARD OF REVIEW TOWN OF SOUTHOLD -------------------------------------------- In the matter of the Application of Lincoln Frank FINDINGS AND 2736 Crescent Ave DETERMINATION Fishers Island, NY SCTM#1000-6.-1-8. --------------------------------7----------- FINDINGS AND DETERMINATION • Based upon the application, documents contained in the Board's file, site inspections and testimony received at the public hearing held on October 24, 2023, the Town Board finds and determines as follows: ISSUE Keith Neilson of DOKO on behalf of Lincoln Frank has filed an application with the Town Board, as the Coastal Erosion Hazard Board of Review(the "Board"), dated August 23, 2023 requesting the following relief: 1. A reversal of the Board of Trustees August 16, 2023 determination which denied the issuance of a coastal erosion permit in accordance with Chapter 111 of the Town Code. FACTUAL BACKGROUND AND PROCEDURAL HISTORY A. Description of the property and qpplicants: The residential parcel is known as 2736 Crescent Ave, Fishers Island,NY SCTM#1000- 6-1-8. The property is currently improved with a single-family home, decks and foundation. The property is located in the residential zone. As confirmed by the Board of Trustees, and acknowledged by the applicant,the property where the proposed work is to be performed is located within the Coastal Erosion Hazard Area as established by New York State in 1991. The applicant submitted to install a dock facility for recreational boating. The proposed structure is to be a fixed wood pile supported wood timber pier with open grate decking proposed to be 90 LF and 4' in width. The project complies with they requirements of the US Army of Corps Engineers,NY DEC and NYS DOS standards as well as the Town's Wetlands Law. The Town Trustees previously issued and approved a Town wetland's permit for the project. x B. Trustees Procedural History: I. Application The applicant filed an application with the Board of Trustees on March 3, 2023. Applicant's request for a CEHA permit sought variances from Chapter 111 requirements. Chapter 111 of the Code requires that dock structures in excess of 200 SF be removable for habitat protection. Applicant contended that the dock exceeds 200SF in order to reach navigable waters beyond a"boulder field" located adjacent to his parcel on the north side of the Island. Applicant further contended that the proposed permanent dock would have less of an effect on the natural environment and is positioned in an area away from eel grass, would have no effect on tidal wetlands vegetation, would result in no loss of navigational waters and would have no effect on coastal features. Applicant further contends that due to the extreme tidal conditions on the north side of the Island,the requirement of a removable dock is contrary to proper facility design and construction and would be detrimental to the environment because of repetitive disturbances of the sediments and resulting water quality, noise and habitat impacts. II. Public Hearing: The Trustees held a public hearing on this application on August 16, 2023, at which times all those interested were given the opportunity to speak. Keith Neilson of DOKO on behalf of the applicant addressed the Town Trustees' concerns with regards to the application. The proposed dock facility was acknowledged to be wholly within the Coastal Erosion Area. III. Trustees Determination and Certificate of Compliance. On August 16, 2023 the Trustees issued a determination which found no basis to grant relief from the removable dock requirement of Chapter 111 and denied the application for a CEHA permit. IV.The Town Board Proceeding The property owners timely filed an appeal of the Trustee's determination pursuant to Town Code Chapterl 11 with the Coastal Erosion Hazard Board of Review (the Board) seeking the reversal of the Trustees denial. The Board held duly noticed public hearings on October 24, 2023, at which time all interested parties were given the opportunity to present testimony on the application. Keith Neilson of DOKO on behalf of the applicant addressed the Town Board's concerns with regards to the application. Applicant's representative again explained that the dock exceeds 200SF in order to reach navigable waters beyond a"boulder field" located adjacent to this parcel on the north side of the Island. Applicant further 2 contended that the proposed permanent dock would have less of an effect on the natural environment and is positioned in an area away from eel grass, would have no effect on tidal wetlands vegetation, would result in no loss of navigational waters and would have no effect on coastal features. Applicant further contends that due to the extreme tidal conditions on the north side of the Island, the requirement of a removable dock is contrary to proper facility design and construction and would be detrimental to the environment because of repetitive disturbances of the sediments and resulting water quality,noise and habitat impacts. No other members of the public appeared in support or opposition to the application and the record was closed on October 24, 2023. APPEAL OF THE TRUSTEE'S DETERMINATION Pursuant to §111-24 the Town Board is designated as the Coastal Erosion Hazard Board of Review and has the authority to "[h]ear and decide appeals where it is alleged there is error in any order, requirement, decision or determination made by the Administrator in the enforcement of this chapter."See, Town Code §111-24 (B). Furthermore, the Coastal Erosion Hazard Board of Review has the authority to "reverse or affirm, wholly or partly, or may modify the order, requirement, decision or determination of the Administrator, including stop or cease-and-desist orders." See, Town Code §111-25. When considering appeals pursuant to § 111-24 & 25, the Board is limited to the record on appeal and the arguments made before the Board of Trustees. In this instance, this Board finds, based upon the record before it, that the applicant has supplied the sufficient information regarding the criteria set forth in §111-9(A-C) of the Town Code to support the granting of a Coastal Erosion Management Permit. CONCLUSION Therefore, in the interests of justice and for the reasons set forth herein, this Board grants the appeal of the Applicant pursuant to Chapter 111 of the Town Code to install the requested pile supported pier with open grate decking, as per the plans submitted by the applicant to the Town Board last dated 2/22/2023 with all the conditions of approval as required by the Town Trustees.

LINCOLN FRANK COASTAL EROSION PERMIT DEINAL APPEAL FISHERS ISLAND SOUND, FISHERS ISLAND NY August 31,2023 Introduction: The property of Mr. Lincoln Frank is located along the north shore of Fisher's Island in waters of Fishers Island Sound. Mr. Frank desires to build a dock facility for recreational boating projecting out into Fishers Island Sound. The structure is to be a fixed wood pile supported wood timber pier. It has been decided that the pier would be constructed originating along the east side of the cottage, separate from the house, wrapping around the porch and then out perpendicular to the shore. The location of the pier avoids documented boulders and patches of eel grass to balance boating and habitat preservation standards. Permits have been applied for to the State of New York, both Department of State and Department of Environmental Conservation, to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and to the Town of Southold for a Wetlands and Coastal Erosion Permit. The Town of Southold Trustees have approved the Wetlands Permit for the construction of this dock facility. One condition of the Trustees approval was that the decking would be"ThruFlow"type open grate decking; the NYS DEC also favors the use of "ThruFlow" decking as does the Fishers Island Seagrass Management Coalition and we have made that change to the application drawing. There will be berthing slips on both sides of the pier. Each one of these permit applications has acknowledged the occasional exposure of this site to adverse sea conditions and the susceptibility of the Fishers Island shoreline to erosive and damaging forces associated with agitated sea states. The respective agencies appears to have accepted the pier design as adequate and appropriate considering these factors. The DOS has issued their consistency determination and the USACOE their permits, copies attached. Aggeal Basis: The dock facility is defined as a structure in Chapter 111 of the Town of Southold Code, Coastal Erosion Hazard Areas.The area of the dock facility exceeds 200 SF in order to reach waters beyond the boulder field and to meet the regulatory and policy requirements for habitat protection of the State, federal and local permit agencies and, therefore, this dock construction activity is not "unregulated" and must conform to the Coastal Erosion Hazard Area factors for consideration, notably, "being removable." We respectfully request to appeal the denial decision of the Trustees August 16, 2023 referencing paragraph 111-10 B because of the nature of the project and the demonstrated history of other docks in this area, the structural stability and effectiveness of this dock facility required for the climatic and sea conditions which are experienced at this site. This requirement for a"removable" structure is contrary to proper facility design and construction for waters of Fishers Island Sound and would be detrimental to the environment and resource conservation because of repetitive disturbances of the sediments and resulting water quality, noise and benthic habitat impacts. According to the Town of Southold Code Chapter 275-11 Section 2c, The Trustees may determine the permitted dock length based on consistency with other docks in the waterway. The proposed dock is smaller than the next closest dock to the proposed site, approximately 1000 feet to the 1 southeast, a fixed pier of about 165' overall length, two parcels to the east of Mr. Frank's and exposed to the same conditions and sea states of Fishers Island Sound. Article 34 of the New York State Environmental Conversation Law, which is the basis for the establishment of the Town of Southold Coastal Erosion Hazard Program,has been reviewed in the preparation of this document and the proposed design meets these standards including the provision of reaching 4 feet of water depth to minimize bottom sediment disturbances. Er° ec m ach The construction scope of work and method to be utilized in this project are specifically to create the strength of the pier structure to protect the structure against damage from waves and to preserve existing coastal features, as well as coastal resources, specifically eel grass which grows beyond and to both sides of the proposed pier but not in the area of the pier head by design. Access and staging considerations are also compatible with these two goals. The barge to conduct work will be relatively light in draft, approximately two to three feet. The water depth will allow the barge to approach within 50 feet of shore,which is the reach of the crane. The barge will not contact the bottom during any portion of the construction. The barge will be relocated after work hours at higher tides to remain clear of the boulders and existing eel grass beds in and around the project site. After hours the barge will be moved into West Harbor. The dock facility is to be built by Gwenmor Marine;the crew are experienced in these waters and familiar with all five of the permits (including this variance) which cover the scope of work. There is no removal of soil or sediment in the proposed scope of work, and there is no alteration of the shoreline proposed. Most of Fisher's Island's waters are recognized as valuable fish habitat. The driven piles will maintain waterflow and circulation. Tidal wetlands vegetation at the shoreline will be unaffected by construction and usage of the pier and only minimally by the actual physical impact of the pile driving. The pier height is being established at about 6 to 8 feet above Mean Low Water,for most of the length of the pier which has a north-easterly alignment which will allow sunlight to reach the benthos through the water column from the east side of the pier during most of the day. The piers longitudinal gradient follow the"8 foot clear of bottom" standards promoted by the seagrass coalition and NOAA NMFS. In addition, the "Thruflow" decking utilized as the walking surface is a textured grate, an open grate surface, so as to allow an effectively 60%of sunlight to reach the water column and bottom sediments beneath the pier, based by studies utilized by the NYSDEC during the approval process of"Thruflow" decking for this purpose. This project will result in no loss of waters as defined in U.S. Army Corps of Engineers General Permit Number 3, under which this project is being reviewed and the project complies with the criteria. This construction process represents minimum encroachment into the navigational waters of the State and waters deep enough to minimize bottom impacts due to boat contact,pier shading and propeller drive system scour. The structure basically terminates at the outer limits of the boulder field, in an area where navigation is limited. There are no known dock remains or artifacts of archaeological significance. The shoreline of Fishers Island Sound has been eroding for decades based on the number of rocks in the shallow inter-tidal zone and sub-tidal zone,the shoreline historically was out further as much as a hundred 2 feet or more to what is now the easterly edge of the boulder field and there is no tidal wetlands or surface vegetation in the dock construction or usage area. There are no known endangered species in the project area. Coni lianas o4th Existin Standards: This construction project has been determined to be compliant with new policies related to the preservation and enhancement of eel grass beds. The pier will be pile supported, with piles in bents or pairs, at 10-foot intervals. "ThruFlow" (slotted plastic) decking will be used for the full length of the pier seaward of the Mean High-Water Line. This decking will have two benefits; allow sunlight to pass through the decking and into the water column and by providing relief from hydrostatic (wave) forces to maximize pier resilience and minimize wave uplift forces which sometimes damage piers. The proposed dock site is the best option available at this shoreline; the remaining shoreline is even more heavily obstructed by boulders or hosts tidal wetlands or SAV growth areas. The survey which makes the basis for the application drawings is pretty exact. The actual boulder locations were surveyed and plotted, as were the limits of the eel grass, so that the pier and tie off pile locations are established and reproduceable in the field using standard survey techniques which will be done at the time of pier layout by the surveyor. The Trustees have agreed, in their approval of the Tidal Wetlands Permit, that the length and configuration of this dock facility are necessary to reach suitably deep water beyond the boulder field and suitably offset from documented eel grass at this site and that this project is suitability designed for and consistent with their tidal wetlands permitting standards of the LWRP once the 200SF requirement is addressed. Embedded stone in the benthos is to remain, as normally requested by the DEC. This will maintain existing benthic habitat as is. The total area of pile contact with the bottom sediments will be approximately 25 SF in total where the piles are driven. Structural Considerations: In accordance with the policies of the National Marine Fisheries Service, piles will be wood, 12 inches in diameter or less at the point of contact with the water,and no larger. It is anticipated that these piles will be Class B pressure treated southern yellow pine. The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation conducted an extensive study in 2000 and determined that such piles are recognized as essential to the long-term structural stability of marine structures and has indicated that the environmental impacts of such treated piles are minimal and consistent with DEC environmental policy. This document is on file with the Trustees office. The structure will be fastened together with double 3/4 inch bolts at each pile bent, split cap and cross brace, each of which will be 4x10 timbers. This will be stout structure for these site characteristics. The decking will be supported with 3 x 10 stringers at 16-inch centers as required by the "ThruFlow" decking. The outside stringer will be bolted to the piles. Decking will be screwed down with two screws per stringer (8 screws per 4-foot-wide deck piece). 3 With regard to structural integrity, the 12-inch piles will be driven to a depth of 10 to 15 feet of embedment, with a bearing capacity of 20 tons, and a pull-out resistance of 10 tons for each pile. The deck elevation will keep the bulk of the structure above the wave high energy zone for standard conditions of high tide,plus one-foot storm surge,plus three-foot waves. In cases of severe coastal storms and hurricanes, there are more significant (three foot) surge tides and the outer deck will be below most of the wave energy. The strength of each bolted connection of timbers to the pile is in excess of a ton. Therefore, the total uplift force exerted on the decking and the framing should be well within the capacity of each of the bolted connections. The longstanding nature of nearby structures (Firestone Boat House, Roosevelt dock, Spurtle, Young, Callander, Didriksen and Charpentier existing docks) and their survival through notable coastal storms since the 1950s, including Hurricane Donna in 1965, The Blizzard of `78, Hurricane Gloria in 1985, Hurricane Bob and the Halloween Storm (Perfect Storm) in 1992, Hurricane Floyd in 1999, Hurricane Irene in 2011 and Hurricane Sandy in 2012, nor'easters in March/April of 2018 and the Christmas and Thanksgiving storms of 2022 give testament to the appropriateness of historic dock building standards. Turbidity will be minimal. The bottom sediments are sandy gravel with stone and rock and the area of contact of the piles is approximately 3/4 of a square foot per pile. This results in a bottom sediment impact area of less than 25 square feet seaward of the Mean High-Water Line for this structure based on pile contact area. Chapter 111 requires that a dock facility over 200 SF be removable. In order to make a dock removable it must be built of fairly lightweight materials with minimal embedment which can be removed seasonally or in advance of danger, and yet firmly founded and fastened so as to provide stable support even considering berthing forces and incessant rhythmic loading due to wind and wave. The 200SF removable parameters can be accommodated in protected bays and estuaries such as Gardner's Bay, Long Beach Bay and Orient Harbor.Long Island Sound and Fishers Island Sound, however, are not mentioned in Section 111-5 A, and rightfully so. These are open waters which frequently develop waves of considerable size and energy induced by strong winds, or considerable fetch of 10 to a hundred miles or storms. These conditions are rarely seen in the Peconic Bay and Shelter Harbor embayments which are specifically referenced in Chapter 111; it is close that this reference was not intended to cover the higher energy water surface conditions of Fishers Island Sound. Piles for support and their bracing elements are essential components for these more severe exposures. Piles driven to 6,7 or 8 foot embedment can be pulled up by significant repetitive storm driven waves and so piles in this exposure must be driven deep and therefore they must be tough enough to handle the driving forces of installation by high impact energy hammers,the resistance to deformation caused by subsurface boulders, and resistance to pulling out. These very attributes make removal infeasible. Even if it was feasible, repetitive pile driving and extraction would decrease the subsurface support capability of the sediments and render the structure more likely to be pulled out or otherwise damaged. In order to make the pier less susceptible to damage in severe storm conditions of the surge tide and waves, the pier height will be kept as low as practical and permittable so that these worst-case storm conditions will have their most damaging energy over 4 the top of the pier rather than striking the pier directly. To have to make this pier removable would not be environmentally, physically or economically appropriate; this is the hardship created by Chapter 111. A pre-construction notice will be issued in accordance with each of the respective permits. It is anticipated that work will be avoided between March 1 st and June 30th of next year, in accordance with standard permitting conditions for fish spawning. This project conforms to all existing agency terms and conditions for construction and maintenance of a dock facility structure. It also accommodates stated preferences of permitting agencies, including the NY DEC, NY DOS, USACE and the Town Trustees. Trustees Tidal Wetlands Permit No. 10167 has been received and is attached. Summary: The emphasis of Chapter 111 is to regulate development activities and to implement standards which will help to minimize and prevent damage to natural protective physical site features as well as manmade structures from coastal flooding and erosion and to protect natural resources and human lives. Nearby dock facilities have withstood the test of time and, in the case of the Firestone Boat House and Roosevelt dock around the Point in Chocomount Cove, have pre-existed this chapter by 35 years. The pier for Mr.Frank faces into the most frequent adverse climatic forces and will continue to do so. The pier will have attributes which will help to maintain environmental quality in general, and specifically to minimize adverse impact potential for eel grass.The Town Trustees have issued the Wetland permit for this pier construction project acknowledging structure attributes required for this exposed site and sea conditions while preserving and protecting the environmental resources at the site and how the resources will not be adversely affected and thus benefit from the design features and materials specified for use in the construction. This section 111-10 B variance request is based on the factors for consideration in section 111-9: A: The pier construction project is reasonable and necessary for boating access beyond the intertidal field of boulders. The structure design has been minimized and will be suitably stout and environmentally appropriate in view of resource protection standards applicable to these site conditions. B: The structure will not cause erosion at Mr. Franks's properly or at adjacent properties. This project is suitably designed for the "nearshore" site in accordance with section 111-11 and there is no excavation, dredging or fill proposed. C: The features of increased height gained by the approach ramp,initial pier height and use of"Thruflow"decking will help to maintain environmental and habitat quality of the intertidal and shallow subtidal zone waters and sediments in accordance with current State, Federal and Town standards for approval. The use of open grate decking and piles for support will maintain light transmissivity to the bottom sediments and will also maintain water now and circulation. The decking will not focus rainfall runoff in a manner which might induce erosion. It is agreed by the permitting agencies that these features will not significantly degrade or adversely impact the 5 environment and habitat quality of the Sound. The dock approachiberthing restraint piles protect eel grass accounting for avoidance of the eel grass with pile locations as well as directing approach and departure routing by alignment. This project complies with the provisions of the US Army Corps of Engineers,NY DEC, and NY DOS programmatic standards as well as the requirements of the Town's Tidal Wetlands Law. The dock structure is larger than 200 SF but will not be any larger than necessary. The facility is the minimum structurally suitable dock option available which will not adversely affect tidal wetlands, submerged aquatic vegetation, finfish or shellfish, habitat, water quality, water flow and circulation, natural protective features or functions of the shoreline, navigation or public access to public trust lands or waters of the State or Town. In order to be in compliance with the codified regulations and recommended best management practices in these site conditions, the structure cannot be removeable. A variance to the provisions of Chapter 111-10 B will not diminish ecological features or habitat and is respectfully requested so that the Coastal Erosion Permit can be issued for this project by the Town Trustees. No public funds will be expended in the course of completing this project. On the basin of this information, which we believe to be compelling,your approval of this appeal is sought.

Pur ose of the pri Deed oro"ect: The purpose of this project is to construct a dock for private recreational boating. b. Descri tion of current site conditions: E roperty is a developed home site in a residential zone. The grounds are fairly wild down to the riparian buffer at the line beyond which is open water as surveyed and documented on the application drawings and survey. Boulders are y intermixed with the tidal vegetation and out beyond into the shallow sub-tidal zone. Eel grass grows abundantly out at 20 fee offsho and tfre ro osed ier. c. Pro osd site changes: This proposed project is to construct 90+/-LF of 4FT wide wood pile and timber pier of which 77+/-LF is waterw7apparent apparent High Water line,including rails,7 tie off piles,two ladders and electric and water utilities,waterward o High Water line. d.

Submit this completed page as part of your Application. % Work methods and a of equipment to be used: This project will be built using marine construction equipment consisting of a deck barge with mounted crane. Pile driving will utilize the crane to hoist the piles in place and drive them to 10 to 15 feet of embedment then hoist large timbers such as the split clamps and stringers into position. Decking will also be transported to the site on the barge with the float and ramp but put into lace manuall with hand tools. h. Describe therlanrred sequence of activities: Iobi'lize to the site,drive piles,connect split clamps and stringers,fasten decking,drive the tle-off piles,demoblize. i. Pollution control methods and other actions proposed to mitigate environmental Impacts: There are no needs for pollution controls except for fuel spills and the construction barge carries a spill kit for use in such emergencies, Erosion and slit control methods that will be used to prevent water quqitWim pacts., There is little work requiring excavation and that would be limited to the trench across the lawn to provide electrical and water services if necessary,colocated. Utilities will span from the house to the pier that work will be across the lawn,within DEC jurisdiction but not in the water or tidal wetlands. k. Alternatives considered to avoid regulated areas. If no feasible alternatives exist,explain how the project will minimize impacts: The pile driving is essential to support the pier and work over inhospitable terrain of rocks and boulders and to stay above the tidal wetlands. The length of the pier coming to shore at the cottage is to avoid continuous foot traffic across the beach and to avoid trenching for utilities.

Photographs of the project site should be submitted. For projects in tidal areas, photographs of the waterway vicinity should be taken at low tide. Using a separate copy of your plan view, indicate the location and direction of each photograph as well as the date and time at which the photograph- was token. Provide a sufficient number of photographs so as to provide a clear understanding of conditions on and proximate to your project site. Photographs showing existing site features and resources are attached. 4. Provide a copy of any environmental impact statement, or any other environmental report which was prepared for your project See attached narrative, Short Environmental fonn and EFH worksheet. 5. Provide a thorough discussion of alternatives to your proposal. This discussion should include, but not necessarily be limited to, the "no action" alternative and alternative(s) resulting in less disturbance to waters of the United States. For filling projects in waters of the United States, including wetlands, your alternatives discussion should demonstrate that there are no practicable alternatives to your proposed filling and that your project meets with current mitigation policy (i.e-. avoidance, minimization and compensation). Alternatives considered included wider, higher, Lower, shorter and longer piers, fined pier versus floating docks, boat lifts, utilities, different locations on the site, use of open grate decking, orientation of docking facilities and the like, all of which are discussed in the narrative. The proposed configuration provides for optimal berthing, minimal environmental disturbances and no adverse impact to navigation or Public Trust access to or use of the stretch of shoreline. The project has been reviewed in detail to make sure that the proposed construction techniques were suitable and appropriate for the site and scope of work and anticipated environmental impacts would be minimal preserving the site's habitat quality and avoiding despoliation of tidal wetlands vegetation and submerged aquatic vegetation around this site. A detailed discussion of the alternatives follows: • Length- The length of the pier has been determined based on the unique features along the shore front which require the pier to span over tidal wetlands vegetation„ pass over a boulder strewn shoreline running along the near shore edge which is almost devoid of tidal wetlands, across very shallow waters, and eventually stopping short of an offshore bed of eel grass in water close to 4 feet deep as a stipulated standard by the NYS DEC. The irregular edge of the eel grass patches is unique and has been documented in detail on site. The width of the pier is shown as four feet; five feet would be better because it would be able to accommodate the batter braced support piles beneath the footprint of the decking, however, berthing is not viable alongside the pier except on the northeast edge of the last 30 feet and the width of the pier has already been discussed on previous projects with agencies including the Marine Habitat Protection Bureau in the NYS DEC and the Town of Southold Trustees and 4 feet was determined to be the standard for construction of new dock facilities. • Height- The height of the dock is dictated by two different features related to the cottage and nearshore waters. One is keeping the dock high enough so it will not adversely impact the growth of tidal wetlands vegetation or submerged aquatic vegetation. The second is keeping the height of the pier low enough so that the end of the pier can function properly for boat boarding access while providing adequate slope and without excessive slope which might make the use of the pier hazardous in slippery conditions. • Fixed Pier Full Length-The fixed pier full length is the best option for this site. A floating dock could be a reasonable alternative, however, in view of the boating needs and the growth of eelgrass beyond the selected dock site, a floating dock would be less desirable. The pier is certainly preferable from the owner's perspective based on boarding and disembarking ease and safety and the typical sea state and sea conditions. • Open Grate Vs. Timber Decking- Open grate decking could be used for the full length of this pier in order to minimize shading, however, the pier location avoids all documented eel grass so wood decking will be used. In addition, the height of the pier and its north-south orientation provide the opportunity for sunlight to reach the bottom sediments beneath the pier, from the east in the morning to the west on the afternoon to minimize shading impacts. • Construction Materials- It's anticipated that the pier will be built out of Southern Yellow Pine, pressure treated with CCA Type C in accordance with the study conducted by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation in the year 2000. The piles may be pressure treated Southern Yellow Pine or Greenheart. There will be 24 12 inch Class B piles in the complete dock facility and they will be driven with a pneumatic hammer. Environmental Resources- The environmental resources at this site include sparse/sporadic tidal wetland vegetation in the near shore area and on eel grass meadow out in deeper water beyond the peripheral of the proposed dock facility. Other than that, the wood pile and timber construction will provide an open unencumbered structure which will not preclude or in any way inhibit free water flow and circulation consistent with the existing site conditions. There are a number of US Fish &Wildlife eel grass avoidance and impact minimization efforts undertaken in the design of this dock facility. They are as follows: ➢ Policy 1- In-water work should be avoided during the eelgrass growing season from April 15 to October 31. Documented eelgrass growth areas have been avoided by the proposed dock facility. Work can be scheduled in the fall through spring to comply with this criterion if the permits are received in a timely manner. There was more eelgrass east of, east of and beyond the proposed pier. Policy 2-Construct the fixed pier a maximum of four feet wide to minimize shading, The pier all the way out to the ships ladder landing has been minimized in its size based on approval criteria from the Town of Southold as well as the recommendations of NM FS, The pier width is 4 feet. ➢ Pol c - Construct the dock a minimum, of for feet above the surface of the water measured at Mean Hi h Water and 4.5 feet over the surface of the marsh with height measured fro-M the bottom of the stringers, not the too of the deck. The standard for deck height is to keep the structure 4 feet above the surface of the water. I would point out there is limited fringe marsh vegetation in this location, and the prevailing pier deck height is at an elevation of approximately 9 feet above Mean Low Water at the point of origin (7.4 NAVD) and the 4-foot-wide pier head is at 6 feet above MLW. The water depth where the eelgrass linear meadow was noted is approximately 5 feet and 3 feet is the typical length of the eelgrass blades. This has been confirmed in our own observations at this site where the tops of the blades are visible below the water surface at low tides. The stringers for most of the pier landing are 8 feet or so above the adjacent sediments and 6 feet above the low water but again the pier siting is such as to avoid the eelgrass altogether. The proposed dock construction will take place along North Hills' northeast shoreline and is acknowledged to be in a flood prone zone area; there is wave exposure at this site. The new pier will have a minimum deck height of 6 feet above terrain except at the landing and 6 feet above MLW at the boat slip and will be built to withstand complete submersion and resist hydrostatic and hydrodynamic uplift pressure due to flooding and typical wave conditions. Policy 4-To Minimize the risk of proVeller dredging and scour extend the fixed portion of the pier so that water depths in the mooring area are a minimum of four feet dere measured at Mean Low, Water, or if the SAV bed extends further than the pEoposed dock extend the dock beyond the vegetation. There was no eelgrass noted in the area of the pier head during our design work. By keeping the pier outside the lateral limits of the SAV bed, we have virtually assured that the boat will not berth over the eelgrass bed. This site is a very active and occasionally relatively high energy wave zone and as result there is little shoreline vegetation and a lot of exposed bloulders. This project is consistent with this policy because the proposed elevation of the pier is at an acceptable height above the bottom sediments beneath which tidal wetlands vegetation or even submerged aquatic vegetation may spread if other conditions are suitable, The NYS DEC prepared a study showing that pressure-treated Southern Yellow Pine timber product construction, materials are suitable for this type of project except for decking which will be of untreated woods or composite (or plastic) materials, The configuration shown on the drawings provides an optimum balance between acceptable design and access standards without depriving any vegetation the opportunity to grow and spread. > Policy 5- Eliminate the rnMl:) and float to reduce shading effects.

The criterion in this case emphasizes the use of a boat lift. The prohibition is related to Tidal Wetlands Law No. 6 issued by the Town of Southold. In other projects, we have attempted to get a boat lift approved by the Town of Southold, however, the Tidal Wetlands Law No, 61 prohibits the installation of a boat lift unless the applicant owns the harbor bottom. In this case, the applicant does not own the harbor bottom and, therefore, a lift Is not permittable under Town of Southold law. > Policy 7- To minimize otential for scour in-water construction eciuOment should oni transit within the work area footprint at ioerlolds of tide hlci�I while construction is occurrin within eel Lass beds. ti g The prevailing water depth in the area where the barge will be set at the end of the pier early in the year where the pier will be built is 3 to 4 feel, deep. Pile driving and setting heavy timbers will be accomplished in a week to three weeks, weather permitting. The potential for scour in this area is negligible at this point. The work will be done at a high tide so that there will be a water depth of 6 to 7 feet, > Eo-licy 8- To avoid minin2iging,impacts. GIS lavers of mapped eel sass beds within the project area should be provided to the contractorsivathey are aware of the eel ara s locations at all times. The eelgrass patches at this site were mapped by a licensed wetlands scientist and accredited botanist and his work is shown on the surveys prepared for the project. The contractor will be furnished with the permit and drawings prior to the pier construction project. The same contractor will be furnished with copies of the permit(s) modifications for this project and is aware of the typical best practices for dock building in proximity to eelgrass. The drawings show the submerged aquatic vegetation that has been verified at the time of the original survey. There will be no significant adverse impacts to air quality as a result of this structure and the construction of the dock should not diminish overall environmental considerations in Fishers Island Sound and will protect water quality, the quality of the ecosystem and minimize or avoid degradation of environmental resources. Boulder Relocation- It is possible that some.boulder relocation might be required by this project because of the number of boulders in this most desirable path considering least resource impact. If boulder relocation is required, the boulders will be set on unvegetated bottom sediments in the path of the pier between bents to keep the environmental impacts localized. DREDGING PROJECTS Answer the following if your project Involves dredging. 1. Indicate the estimated volume of material to be dredged and the depth (below mean low water) to which dredging would occur. Would there be overdepth dredging? Dredging, per se, is not required in this project, however, boulders will be moved from the pier bent and berthing area and relocated to the ibotprint of the per consistent with the benthic characteristics of the site. The dock system has been laid out in its current location and configuration to avoid any dredging requirements. The minimum prescribed water depth of 2 feet„ as generally recommended by the SUS , OE, and 4 feet as recommended by the NYS DEC has been reached. This is an exposed site such that the boat must be berthed bow out. 2. You can apply for a ten-year permit for maintenance dredging. If you wish to apply for a ten-year permit, please provide the number of additional dredging events during the ten-year life of the permit and the amount of material to be removed during future events. No dredging is required or requested. 3. Indicate of your drawings the dewatering area (if applicable) and disposal site for the dredged material(except landfill sites). Submit a sufficient number of photographs of the dewatering and disposal sites as applicable so as to provide a clear indication of existing conditions. For ten-year maintenance dredging permits, indicate the dewatering/disposal.sites for future dredging events, if known. Not Applicable 4. Describe the method of dredging (i.e. clamshell, dragline, etc.) and the expected duration of dredging. Not applicable for dredging. If boulder relocation is required, a clamshell bucket or digging bucket will be utilized to grapple and reset the boulder. 5. Indicate the physical nature of the material to be dredged (i.e. sand, slit, clay, etc.) and provide estimated percentages of the various constituents if available. For beach nourishment projects, grain size analysis data is required. Not Applicable 6. Describe the method of dredged material containment (i.e. hay bales, embankment, bulkhead, etc.) and whether return flow from the dewaterigldisposal site would reenter any waterway. Also indicate if there would be any barge overflow. Not Applicable Answer the following if your project includes the construction or rehabilitation of recreational mooring facilities. 1. It is generally recommended that any fixed piers and walk ramps be limited to four feet in width, ,and that floats be-limited to eight feet in width and rest at least two feet above the waterway bottom at mean low water. Terminal floats at private, noncommercial facilities should be limited to 25 feet In length. If you do not believe your proposal can meet with these recommendations,please provide the reason(s). The pier will be 4-FT wide and 90(+l-)FT long complying with all of these provisions as measured from the Apparent High Water line. The pier height will vary from 5 feet above Mean Low Water from the paint of origin until 30 feet from the end to avoid adverse impacts to future tidal wetland vegetation growth and submerged aquatic vegetation should the bed or meadow est of the pier spread toward shore all policies of the US Fish & Wildlife Service have been accommodated in this dock configuration. The pier has been situated in an area devoid of submerged aquatic vegetation. 2. Using your plan view, show to scale the location(s), position(s) and size(s) (including length, beam and draft) of vessel(s) to be moored at the proposed facility, including those of transient vessel(s) if known. A typical vessel is shown on the plan view of the application drawings. The boat will probably be a motorboat 25 to 30 feet or so in length. 3. For commercial mooring sites such as marinas, indicate the capacity of the facility and indicate on the plan view the location(s) of any proposed fueling and/dr sewage pumpout facilities. If pumpout facilities are not planned, please discuss the rationale below and Indicate the distance to the nearest available pumpout station. Not applicable-There are no pump out facilities and no fueling facilities proposed at this site. Those functions are taken care of elsewhere on Fishers Island provided by commercial pumpout operator from the mainland, however, any boat using their facility could and would use the pump out facilities at local marinas where fuel is sold. 4. Indicate on your plan view the distance to adjacent marine structures, if any are proximate and show the locations and dimensions of such structures. There is a half dozen dock structures east of the site, the nearest being 500 feet away, east. 5. Discuss the need for wave protection at the proposed facility.. Please be advised that if a permit is Issued, you would be required to recognize that the mooring facility may be subject to wave action from wakes of passing vessels, whose operations would"not be required to be modified. Issuance of a permit would not relieve you of ensuring the integrity of the authorized structures) and the United States would not be held responsible for damages to the structure(s) and vessel(s) moored thereto from wakes from passing vessels. There is no good opportunity for wave protection at this site. Waves from the prevailing wave field are from the west, blocked by the point of North Hill. Otherwise, waves from the northwesterly to northeasterly of the site are unobstructed in their approach which is why the shoreline consists of boulders, the only natural material and formation the waves cannot move. The pier located within the boulder field will be somewhat protected by the seabed character. The boulder field will cause many of the waves to break just offshore beneath the higher section of the pier. BULKHE DIN 13—ANKSTABILLZATIONIFILLINGACTIWTISS Answer the following if your project includes construction of bulkheading (also retaining walls and seawalls) with backfill filling of waters/wwedands, or any other bank stabilization fills,such as riprap, revetments, gabions, etc. 1. Indicate the total volume of rill (including backfill behind a structure such as a bulkhead) as well as the volume of fill to be placed into waters of the United States. The amount of fill in waters of the United States can be determined by calculating the amount of fill to be placed below the plane of spring high tide in tidal areas and below ordinary high water in non-tidal areas. The shoreline will remain stabilized by the existing boulder field as it exists naturally which extends landward of the spring High Tide Line. There is no proposal to import and place fill in Public Trust waters of the United States. 2. Indicate the sources) and type(s) of fill material. There is no proposed fill to be utilized in this project. 3. Indicate the method of fill placement (i.e. by hand, bulldozer, crane, etc). Would any temporary fills be required in waterways or wetlands to provide access for construction equipment? If so, please indicate the area of such waters and/or wetlands to be filled, and show on the plan and sectional views. Boulders will be removed from the pile driving area only if required, and removal and resetting will be done mechanically by crane operated from the deck of a marine construction barge.

ENG FORM 4345,FED 2018 Page 3 of 3 PROPERTY OF LINCOLN FRANK NORTH HILL,FISHERS ISLAND SOUND NARRATIVE STATEMENT& SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION FOR NYS DEC,NYS DOS AND TOWN OF SOUTHOLD APPLICATIONS MARCH 2023 GENERAL Lincoln Frank,the applicant,owns parcel 1006-6.-1-8 on Crescent Ave located along the easterly shoreline of North Hill on Fishers Island Sound on Fishers Island. The site is gently to moderately sloped rolling terrain, sandy, gravel earthen materials, vegetated with grass, brush, ground cover and trees with a lawn sloping northeasterly to the shoreline which is lined with boulders interspersed with sparse clumps of tidal wetlands vegetation along a short narrow beach to the west. The frontage of the property is approximately 350 feet along Fishers Island Sound at the easterly end, abutted by the Rothfield and Forshay to the east and other property of his own to the to the west. This can be a high energy waterfront site. Attached are application drawings for a new dock facility for recreational boating prepared for this project showing the proposed configuration and pertinent details. This supplemental narrative has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Town of Southold, Ordinance No. 6, 2004, and the Waterfiwont Revitalization Program related to docks and shorefront improvements. In addition, various coastal policies under the New York State Coastal Management Act are addressed herein for review by the New York State Department of State and Department of Environmental Conservation. DESCRIPTION OF MImo. This project is to construct a fixed wood pile and timber pier from the shore out into Fishers Island Sound in accordance with existing guidelines set forth in the Town of Southold ordinance No. 6, 2004. Boulder relocation will be minimal, if any, at the end of the dock facility to provide for safe berthing and avoiding local eelgrass beds. It is envisioned that this structure will be built utilizing the following general sequence and methodology. ➢ The marine contractor will arrive by water with a barge-mounted crane and push boats. ➢ New piles will be driven starting at the shore landing end of the pier and proceeding waterward at roughly 10-foot intervals to the waterward end of the pier approximately 90 feet from the Apparent High-Water Line. These 24 piles will be wood, driven by double- acting air hammer to a bearing capacity of about 20 tons and pull-out resistance of approximately 10 tons. This generally results in about 10 to 15 feet of embedment of the pile in the bearing stratum: These piles will be Class B 12-inch nominal diameter measured at three feet from the butt. 1 ➢ After the piles are installed, split clamps/caps consisting of a pair of pressure treated Southern Pine timbers, 3 x 10 to 4 x 10 nominal dimension,will be double bolted at each pile transversely forming a pile bent. Stringers will be then bolted on the split caps parallel to the length of the pier. ➢ The outer stringer on each side will be bolted or spiked to the pile at each bent to secure it against uplift forces that this pier will typically be exposed to. ➢ ,After the stringers have been connected to the piles and split caps, the decking will be installed. Ira, accordance with the Town of ' outhold's Ordinance No. 6, 2004,this decking will not be CCA pressure-treated Southern Pine as noted on the drawings. Decking will be oak., cedar hardwood, or plastic / composite such as "Timber Tech" or similar synthetic, composite or plastic material with the brushed side mounted up. If composites or plastic are used,decking will be either gray, brown or natural in color. Decking can also be "Thru-Flow" to minimize shading. Decking will be attached to the stringers utilizing galvanized nails or stainless-steel Phillips or Flathead square-drive stainless steel wood screws about 4 inches long and will be set with a S1/4"gap between deck planks. ➢ The over-water decking will run at an elevation of approximately 8 feet MLW at the cottage to match the porch deck elevation and at least 5 feet above the existing bottom sediments (not including boulders) until approaching the end where it will transition down at 10;1 until reaching the level boat dock landing elevation of 5 to 6 feet above mean low water. See Sheet 4 of the application drawings for the pier profile. The piles will terminate about 48 inches above the deck surface and have horizontal rail members mounted to them. ➢ A rail of cedar, oak, hardwood or Timber Tech(plastic) material will be installed for safety.The mid-rail can be timber or cable and both details are shown. ➢ Water and electricity will be run out in conduits from the cottage on the pier in the space between the stringers so that trickle chargers on the boat may be powered during tie-ups. The water will allow boats to be rinsed off after usage. A power post with an internal light will be mounted to the end of the fixed pier with receptacles to provide power to the boats from extension cords. The power post will also have coiling arms for storage of the electric service cord and hose between uses. Because the dock may be used during the hours of darkness, low- intensity downcast lights will be mounted on staggered piles or dock rail posts to illuminate the deck and the walking surface up the cottage. This system will be manually, or radio controlled with a shut-off timer so that the lights will only be on when necessary for safety of the users. The utilities will be within the confines of the existing cottage structure and will not enter the tidal wetlands. ➢ The pier foot will emanate from the northeast side of the cottage and will span over the existing natural, non-turf buffer which will not be disturbed except for the support posts which will be set in augured holes 2 LOCAL WATERFRONT REVINTAL ZATION POLICIES The Town of Southold,LWRP policies that are applicable to the Frank dock proposal are a local refinement of the Long Island Sound Regional Coastal Management Program policies that apply throughout Long Island Sound. The cottage site on Fishers Island could be characterized as natural, rocky shorefront because of the largely undeveloped foreshore between the house and more or less natural grounds, however, the shoreline is completely, naturally protected by boulders which constitutes a glacial deposit and extensive wild riparian buffer vegetation. The developed coast policies are applicable as follows: ➢ Policy 1 is to foster a pattern of development that enhances community character and preserves natural resources to the maximum extent and minimizes adverse impacts on the environment, ➢ Policy 2 is to preserve historic resources, ➢ Policy 3 is to enhance and protect scenic resources and visual quality. The proposed dock facility is consistent with waterfront development on Fishers Island Sound and in coastal areas. The length is a balance of minimal practical length, boulder and eelgrass avoidance and encroachment to reach a depth of water to avoid bottom contact and benthic disturbances in accordance with longstanding permitting standards. The pier is made of suitably sized timbers requiring 12-inch class B piles because of wave exposure and utilizes the materials allowable under Local Law #6. This proposal is smaller than other nearby dock facilities and characteristics for the visual and scenic considerations. The length is made necessary due to the boulder field and narrow eel grass fringe at the dock site to be crossed to reach navigable water. The encroachment has been minimized to be consistent with DEC policies, Southold Local Law #6, US ACOE policies and the structure is as low profile as possible, and high enough to avoid or minimize shading of tidal wetlands and eelgrass, consistent with the safe and efficient use of the waters and consistent with the tidal range and wave field of this site. The length and geometrics of the dock facility are being reviewed with both the Town Trustees and DEC Marine Habitat Protection Bureau in fair detail to assure consistency with both State and local permitting standards and guidelines. Lighting will be minimal for operational safety and otherwise off. Lights will be utilized only when necessary for boating purposes so that during hours of darkness there will be no adverse lighting impact. NAXURAL CO S_T POLICIES S The Natural Coastal Policies are 4 through 8 and require consideration as follows: ➢ Policy 4 — Minimize loss of life, structures and natural resources from flooding and erosion, ➢ Policy 5—Protect and improve water quality ➢ Policy 6—Protect and restore the quality and function of the eco-system, ➢ Policy 7—Protect and improve air quality, ➢ Policy 8 — Minimize environmental degradation primarily from solid waste and hazardous substances. 3 The proposed structure for the recreational boating facility has been laid out and configu consistent with the Town and DEC permit requirements for dock structures. As such, it j adequate height to clear environmental resources of concerti and the materials to be util consistent with Town of Southold's Local Law #6 regarding environmental quality and the use of pressure-treated Southern Yellow Pine timber components in particular. The length and geometries of the dock facility will have been reviewed with both the Town Trustees and DEC Marine Habitat Protection Bureau in fair detail to assure consistency with both State and local permitting standards and guidelines especially as they relate to eelgrass beds. US Fish & Wildlife nolicies relating to eel ass impacts are addressed as follows: 1`2lic I- In-water work should be avoided durit1g.the eel grays 15-10—October 31. Documented eelgrass growth areas have been avoided by the proposed dock facility. Work can be scheduled in the fall through spring to comply with this criterion if the permits are received in a timely manner. There was more eelgrass southeast and north of the proposed pier. Polic - Construct the fixed mera maximitm of four feet wide to minimize shadina. The pier all the way out to the ships ladder landing has been minimized in its size based on approval criteria from the Town of Southold as well as the recommendations of NMFS. The pier width is 4 feet. Policy 3- Construct the dock a minimum of four feet above the surface of the water measured at Mean High Water and 4.5 feet over the surface of the r-9narsh with ight measured from the bottom of the stringers, not the top of the deck. The s(andard for deck height is to keep the structure 3-4 feet above the surface of the water. I would point out there is a almost no fringe marsh vegetation in this location, and the prevailing pier deck height is at an elevation of approximately 8 feet above Mean Low Water at the cottage and the 4-foot-wide pier head is at 6 feet above MLW at the end. The water depth where the eelgrass was noted is approximately 2-3 feet which is the typical length of the eelgrass blades. This has been confirmed in our own observations at this site where the tops of the blades are visible at low tides. The stringers for most of the pier length are 8feet or so above the sediments and 5 to 6 feet above the tops of the eelgrass blades but again the pier siting is such as to avoid the eelgrass altogether. The proposed dock construction will take place along the shoreline and is acknowledged to be in a flood prone zone area; there is wave exposure at this site. The new pier will have a minimum deck height of 6 feet above MLW at the boat slip and will be built to withstand complete submersion and resist hydrostatic and hydrodynamic uplift pressure due to flooding and typical wave conditions. - To minimize the risk of propeller dredging and SCOLIT', extend ,pLoli M 4—.— the fixed, portion of the Maier so that Ihe water depths in (lie moorina, area are a nunimum of four feet deep measured at Mean Low Water, or if the SAV bed extends further than the proposej dock extend the dock beyond the yegqUition. The fragmented eelgrass growth areas are avoided by the pier. There was no eelgrass noted in the path of the pier head at the end of the pier during our survey work. By 4 keeping the pier outside the lateral limits of the SAV bed, we have virtually assured that the boat will not berth over the eelgrass bed. This site is a very active and occasionally relatively high energy wave zone and as result there is little shoreline vegetation and many exposed boulders. This project is consistent with this policy because the proposed elevation of the pier is at an acceptable height above the bottom sediments beneath which tidal wetlands vegetation or even submerged aquatic vegetation may spread if other conditions are suitable. The NYS DEC prepared a study showing that pressure-treated Southern Yellow Pine timber product construction materials are suitable for this type of project except for decking which is governed by the Town regulations and so it will be of untreated woods or composite (or plastic)materials. The configuration shown on the drawings provides an optimum balance between acceptable design and access standards without depriving any vegetation the opportunity to grow and spread. Polk 5-Eliminate the ram and float to reduce shading-effects. There is no floating dock proposed in this application. a Polic 6- Install a lift or each vessel moored at the dock unless not practicable fe.g. sailboat). The boats should be moored in the_l"ft s when not in use. This is to reduce shading effects minimigg the potential for scour, and reduce the potential for the bottom of a d ed boat to damage the SAV bed. The criterion in this case emphasizes the use of a boat lift. The prohibition is related to Tidal Wetlands Law No. 6 issued by the Town of Southold. In other projects, we have attempted to get a boat lift approved by the Town of Southold, however, the Tidal Wetlands Law No. 6 prohibits the installation of a boat lift unless the applicant owns the harbor bottom. In this case,the applicant does not own,the harbor bottom and,therefore, a lift is not permittable under Town of Southold law. Polk 7- To minimize potential for scour, in-w -ter construction e ui ment should only transit within the work area foot Tint at Deriods of high tide while construction is occurring within eelgrass beds. The prevailing water depth in the area where the barge will be set at the end of the pier early in the year when the pier will be built is 3 to 4 feet deep at low tide. Pile driving and setting heavy timbers will be accomplished in a week to three weeks, weather permitting. The potential for scour in this area is negligible at this point. The work will be done at a high tide so that there will be a water depth of 7 to 8 feet. Policy 8- To avoid minimizi i_mpacts, CIS 1p ers of ma ed eelgrass beds within the project area should be provided to the contract-gr so they are aware of tlae eel rs locations at all times. The eelgrass beds at this site were mapped by a licensed wetlands scientist and accredited botanist and his work is shown on the surveys prepared for the project. The contractor will be furnished with the permit drawings prior to the pier construction project. The same contractor will be furnished with copies of all of the the permit(s)and modifications 5 for this project and is aware of the typical best practices for dock building in proximity to eelgrass. The drawings show the submerged aquatic vegetation that has been verified at the time of the original survey. There will be no significant adverse impacts to air quality resulting from this structure and the construction of the dock should not diminish overall environmental considerations in Fishers Island Sound and will protect water quality, the quality of the ecosystem and minimize or avoid degradation of environmental resources. PUBLIC COAST PDL CIE Policy 9 sets forth a priority to provide for public access and recreational use of coastal waters, public lands and public resources of the Town. This project creates a recreational boating facility for the property with a design that utilizes a full-length pile supported structure elevated so it is consistent with this"access"policy and will not adversely affect public access to or use of Public Trust Lands or Waters of the State. WD 1N COAST POLICIES The policies of this section relate to the following: ➢ Policy 10 — Protection of the Town's water-dependent uses and promoting new water- dependent uses in suitable locations, ➢ Policy 11 —Promoting sustainable use of living marine resources, ➢ Policy 12—Protect agricultural lands, ➢ Policy 13—Promote appropriate use and development of energy and mineral resources. While most of the Working Coast Policies are not applicable to this site or this type of project, Policy 10,promoting water-dependent uses and the siting of water-dependent uses in appropriate areas is applicable. The proposed project has been laid out to make the most beneficial use of the land and locating the dock facility in the most appropriate point of the land where access from the shore will not require excessive structural facilities. The alignment depicted is to minimize impacts on valuable habitat and environmental resources including the minimal tidal wetlands vegetation and eelgrass documented at the site. The length proposed will keep the boat access manufacturing out beyond propeller contact potential. The land origin point of this project is private land. The Public Trust Lands and Waters constitutes the area between the Mean High Water and Mean Low Water Lines and the resources from the High Tide Line out. Environmental resources at this site are limited and site habitat features are being preserved. The potential for growth is being protected by the suitable alignment and Height standards dictated by the NYS DEC. There is virtually no public use of the waterfront in this area and the construction of the pier and dock are all waterward above the Apparent High-Water Line and are not likely to influence or change this fact. The Public Trust Lands at this site are substantially obstructed by the boulder field which spans the intertidal and shallow subtidal zone. The purpose of this project is to build a new pier for water-dependent recreational boating as defined in the LWRP. The dock facility will provide for recreational boating and boat transportation access to the island or the mainland without adverse environmental impacts and 6 while protecting the existing habitat and resources. There will be no despoliation of tidal wetlands vegetation or submerged aquatic vegetation at this or adjacent sites related to this project during construction or usage of the dock facility for recreational boating access. This project has been laid out with specific reference and review of the Waterfront Revitalization Program policies and is consistent with these policies. In summary, the dock is typical of recreational boating facilities throughout the area and all along coastal New England. The structure has been minimized in size, height, length and structure to be consistent with other facilities of a similar nature and the minimum necessary components to accommodate safe and efficient boating operations from this site safely in a variety of climatic conditions, while preserving and minimizing, infact avoiding wetland and eelgrass impacts, This project does not interfere with public access or use of Public Trust Waters and Lands of the State, it does not interfere with navigation, it will not create soil or sedimentation erosion or scour problems, it does not adversely affect environmental resources and in the area where the facility must span the intertidal zone at the shore line, the facility has been located in the area of rocks where environmental resources have already been diminished by climatological factors so as not to worsen any of these conditions and avoiding waters fouled by the boulders to the extent that they are not navigable. The height of the structure has been specifically addressed to allow tidal wetlands vegetation of the shoreline to grow if other conditions are conducive to such growth. The dock facility has also been located reaching out to the deepest available water in Fishers Island Sound to the side of patchy eelgrass growth areas, so that the alignment has favored boulder avoidance but if required, the boulders to be removed will be relocated beneath the pier in the existing boulder field so as not to change the site characteristics and not to extend impacts into adjacent resource areas. Dredging will not be an issue in the future, thus further minimizing adverse environmental impacts. More than 95% of the 300-foot shoreline along Fishers Island Sound will remain in a natural state as a result of these considerations for design. There is no loss of valuable marine and wetland habitat and no water quality degradation because of this project. No natural protective features or processes will be adversely impacted as a result of the proposed docking facility. The dock spans over an area of nearshore boulders and there is a natural void of submerged aquatic vegetation specimens in the proposed dock or berthing area. Reference is made to the NYS DEC study from 2000 indicating the suitability of pressure-treated Southern Yellow Pine piles and super-structure components for this type of purpose. In accordance with Local Law 46, decking for the pier deck treads will be of plastics or woods other than Southern Yellow Pine. This project is consistent with zoning policies and ordinances for the Town. The dock facility will be an accessory to the cottage located at this site. There will be no development of the upland related to this dock facility that will create point sources of pollution or drainage. This project is providing recreational boating and water usage opportunity compatible with the natural resource values and characteristics of the site. RI+; U1 111E TS OF,SECTION 97-25 OF THE SOUTHOLD WETLANDS LAW 6 The permittee acknowledges that the validity of this permit is subject to the approval of other governmental or municipal authorities. 7 The permittee does„ by the acceptance of this permit, assume all responsibility for operations undertaken pursuant to this permit, and shall take all precautions for the prevention of h1juries to persons and property resulting from such operations. By such acceptance, the permittee also agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Town and its officers. The permittee gives consent to the Town and its officers, employees and agents to enter upon the premises where such operations are being conducted to make such inspections to determine whether said operations are being conducted in conformity with the permit. The permittee will notify the Trustees in writing one week prior to initiation of any and all operations. The permittee will notify the Trustees in writing upon completion of operations such that the site can be inspected for issuance for a certificate of compliance. In response to Sub-section 2a and the General Rules for Standards of Residential and Commercial Docks,the following additional information is offered. 1. Permits for the work are being applied for simultaneously through the US ALOE, NYS DEC and a Coastal Zone Consistency determination by the NYS DOS. 2. The new piles to be installed will be 12-inch diameter Class B wood of sturdy, durable and stable materials, in all likelihood, Greenhart, Kakaralli or CCA pressure-treated Southern Yellow Pine (SYP)piles with new split caps and braces of the same SYP materials. These members will be a minimum of 3 x 8 to 4 x 10 timber with double 3/" bolts per connection, or in some cases, one 1-inch bolt per connection. These sizes are predicated based on sea conditions during rough weather. This pier is a fixed, pile-supported timber structure and therefore will not adversely affect the free circulation of water or reduce the effects of fluctuating water levels in Fishers Island Sound; only piles will span the water column. In addition,the pier does not present any adverse modification of the shoreline. The pier's end elevation is such that in extreme high flood tides in storm surges the structure will be inundated. The structure's SYP timber materials represent the standard of the industry being specifically grown and treated for this type of usage and are capable of withstanding full immersion. With the connections described above, this structure will be able to survive repeated inundations and even direct waves at high tide elevations with a structural life of approximately 20 years. Severe storm performance cannot be guaranteed. 3. The pier support, because of its height, will include driving new 12-inch diameter Class B piles at nominal 10-foot intervals to the maximum extent possible in order to obtain the desired pier alignment and support intervals; 12-inch piles will be used for the tie-offs. Twelve-inch piles are required for this pier because of the difficult pile driving conditions in the boulder laden bottom sediments. The use of CCA pressure-treated piles and timbers can be approved for this project in accordance with Local Law 6. Ten-foot bent intervals will vary as necessary to accommodate pile driving conditions around boulders. 8 i 4. The pier will ppA be decked with CCA pressure-treated Southern PineThis p er walkway provides a sale pedestrian surface for access to the berthed boat. Rails may be installed on the pier for safety of the users. 5. The pier is located near the northeast end of the property waterfront. The 15-foot side yard clearance specified in this paragraph has been more than honored and lateral clearance of almost a hundred feet should not be an issue because the proposed pier does not represent a significant encroachment into the logical boating operations area of the neighbors to the east or west. The dock facility does not project into the navigation way for other boaters in the Sound because of the recessed shoreline and number of rocks in the shoaling nearshore waters. The deck width of 4 feet is considered desirable and appropriate for boating safety because of the exposure to waves from the north, inherent stability, and the agility of some of the users. 6. Upon receipt of the permit for this project, appropriate permit numbers and a Town permit placard will be affixed to the most seaward face of the pier for identification from the water. 7. The only permanent structures located above the pier decking other than the power post and railing which are fixed by function, are the dock box over the boulder at the shore side landing. 8. A five-foot passage beneath the pier between the Mean High and Mean Low Water Lines has been provided. Foot traffic in this area is rare, if at all, and so the additional structure of an up and over stairway has been left out of this pier layout. NEW YOBK COASTAL MA GEME4 T" PROGRAM These application documents include a copy of the Federal Consistency Assessment Form utilized for the New York State Coastal Management Program under the jurisdiction of the New York State Department of State. The following policies have been identified as pertinent to this application and the reason for consistency associated with this project is outlined in each respective case. • Polic2 —Water D endent Uses — This project is to construct a fully functional water dependent use,a dock facility at this site in support of recreational boating. • folic 5 —Use of Existing Developed hore cont _.. There is no developed shoreline on this site. This project utilizes existing shorefront which is dominated by an accumulation of stone. Wave energy has diminished resources but the shoreline does support growth of some patchy or individual tidal wetlands vegetation. The project will be to build a pier and extend it to a logical shoreward terminus to make it safe and reliably usable in most boating conditions in accordance with the NYS DEC 4 foot depth criteria. • Polk 7—Significant I"sh& Wildlife Habitat--Protection of significant fish and wildlife habitat has been considered in the development of this project layout. The pier, to the shoreward point beginning, will maintain 5 feet above the rocky intertidal sediments and should not jeopardize the integrity of any vegetation outcrops, should they colonize this area in the future. Typically there is a slight environmental benefit to a pier project 9 because of the creation of structure in the water column where barnacles, algae and crustaceans will colonize and grow. is Policy 8 —Protection & PLe§.grvatiQn of Habitat,— Protection and preservation of habitat has also been considered in this project and the dock structure is being kept to its minimal configuration and of width, length and height and materials consistent with standards of the industry and,restrictions set forth in the Wetlands Law, No. 6, 2004 set forth by the Town of Southold and standards of the NYS DEC. The pier has been sited over a stony pall of the beach to make use of the obstructed, least desirable beach habitat and avoid the eelgrass to minimize damage to natural resources based on existing conditions documented in the survey. See Natural Coast Policies on page 3 of this narrative. • Poli 11 —Minimize Darnaae to Natural Resources - Me dock construction project has been laid out in such a way so as to minimize damage to Natural Coastal resources as identified in Policy 8 above. The dock facility has been sited in the area where large boulders on the beach have already impacted shoreline vegetation and fouled the area to navigation. US Fish and. Wildlife Service Guidelines for eelgrass beds have been substantially complied with as addressed in the Natural Coast Policies on page 3 of this narrative. Polic 1':�lasurableIncrease in Flooding- This project consists of construction of an open wood pile and timber pier which in no way adversely affects water flow and circulation in Fishers Island Sound or flooding potential of the area. Flood levels all around Fishers Island are dictated by water levels in Long Island Sound, and Block Island Sound and this structure will have no adverse influence or in any way impact on those levels. • Policy 15 — No Dredging — Dredging, per se, is not required in this project, however, boulders, if'found, will be moved from the pier bent and berthing area and relocated to the footprint of the per consistent with the benthic characteristics of the site. The dock system has been laid out in its current location and configuration to avoid any dredging requirements. The minimum prescribed water depth of 2 feet, as generally recommended by the US ACOE, and 4 feet as recommended by the NYS DEC has been reached. This is an exposed site such that the boat must be berthed bow out or bow to the northwest. • Policy-19—Impact on Publig.Acces�—Public access will not be jeopardized or impeded as a result of this project. Environmental resources at this site are limited and site habitat features are being preserved. The potential for growth is being protected by the suitable alignment and height standards dictated by the NYS DEC. There is virtually no public use of the waterfront in this area and the construction of the pier and dock are all waterward above the Apparent High-Water Line and are not likely to influence or change this fact. The Public Trust Lands at this site are substantially obstructed by terrain, wild shoreline vegetation and the boulder field which spans the intertidal and shallow subtidal zone. There is almost no public access usage of the public trust lands or waters at this site except kayaking and canoeing which are also rare. The upper intertidal zone and shallow subtidal zone is significantly covered by boulders and the shallow sub-tidal waters do not present any opportunity for navigation or enticement for public access in the area. The Sound is three miles wide so the pier occupies far less than the landward 25% of the waterway width in accordance with US ACOE policies. Thus, public access to the 10 State's lands and waters will not be adversely affected by the project; the pier is high, S feet above the shore and so if someone wanted to walk this shoreline they will still be able to. • boli 20 - Pulalic TrustCom patibility with. Existing Adjoining Properties and Land Uses- Public Trust compatibility with existing adjoining properties and land uses have also been, considered in this project. Some nearby properties have small docking facilities similar to this one and this docking facility will not interfere with existing or the likely configuration of future facilities on nearby properties. • Policy 21 - Fater J2el2endent Recreation - This project is consistent with water- dependent recreational opportunities policies set forth in this section. • P lic 24 -Scenic esources Im air ent or Doss - l"his policy is designed to prevent impairment or minimize loss of scenic resources. The fixed wood pile and timber pier will be to the left of the straight-out field of vision for both the neighboring properties and should not represent such an extent of encroachment or structure which would create a loss of scenic resources. This facility will really only be visible from the water and the five properties to the east have docks. • 2olicy 2 Enhance Overall Scenicrali -The new dock structure except for resource design requirements will be consistent with typical dock characteristics, the scenic features of the area and prevent loss of scenic resources as described in Policy 24 above. Polis 411 - P'reserve and Protect. Tidal wetlands -.. The tidal wetland vegetation on the rocky shorefront is a sparse and stressed between the non-turf vegetated buffer and the water's edge at the dock site. The construction of the fixed wood pile and timber pier has taken advantage of the least vegetated strip of shoreline at the cottage in order to avoid adverse wetlands impact. The pier height and alignment also avoid eelgrass beds which grows in patches in the shallow subtidal waters east of the dock site. The height of the pier should allow opportunities for the growth of the tidal vegetation naturally up to, and to an extent, beneath the wood pier if other conditions are suitable. The pier being orientated northeast-southwest will allow sunlight in beneath the pier from the east in the morning and the west in the afternoon and will lie between survey patches of submerged aquatic vegetation. SUMMARY This project proposes a new fixed pier for recreational boating access for the property of Mr. Lincoln Frank on Fishers Island, incorporating extensive measures to avoid impact to a productive habitat, while maintaining habitat values and avoiding despoliation of tidal wetlands or submerged aquatic vegetation. A copy of all US Army Corps of Engineers, NYS DEC and NYS DOS applications and supplemental drawings and photographs are attached as substantiation for this project. 11 This project complies with applicable standards of the New York State Coastal Management Act, NYS / DEC Tidal Wetland Regulations and criteria for approval and the Town of Southold Waterfront Revitalization Program and Local Ordinance No, 6, 2004; approval of this project is thus respectfully requested.

The turbidity generated can result in a temporary impact to water quality which may have an indirect effect on some species and habitats such as winter flounder eggs,SAV or rocky habitats. The level of detail that you provide should be commensurate with the magnitude of impacts associated with the proposed project.Attach supplemental information if necessary. Upland 60-sgft of impact with pile penetration into the ground and pier coverage. Water Column-300 sqft of impact with pile penetration into the ground and pier coverage. This project endeavors to site the dock facility clear of the small mapped SAV bed and totally avoiding the area of extensive boulders with interspersed eelgrass to the east.The piers'northerly alignment reaches deep water quickly angles off to the northeast to allow for berthing bow into the significant wind/wave direction for berthing security and lowest sea condition exposure risk.By staying clear of the eelgrass beds the most productive habitat and shelter will be preserved. 7 What specific measures will be used to avoid and minimize impacts,including project design,turbidity controls,acoustic controls,and time of year restrictions?If impacts cannot be avoided or minimized,why not? Wood 12 inch Class B piles will be utilized to support the pier.Driving wood piles minimizes acoustic impacts and produces no turbidity.Deck height will be a feet above mean low water to minimize shading while helped by the north/south orientation.Thru Flow decking will be utilized to help minimize shading and maintains a fairly bright illuminated water column although the pier has been sited so as to avoid eel grass-see Exhibit.

EFH Consultation is not required. This is a FWCA only request. The adverse effect on EFH is not substantial. This means that the adverse effects are no more than minimal, temporary,or can be alleviated with minor project modifications or conservation recommendations. This is a request for an abbreviated EFH consultation. The adverse effect on EFH is substantial. FThis is a request for an expanded EFH consultation.We will provide more detailed information„including an alternatives analysis and NEPA documents, if applicable. 7 An adverse effect is any impact that reduces the quality and/or quantity of EFH.Adverse enacts may include direct or indirect physical,chemical,or biological alterations of the waters or substrate and loss of,or injury to,benthic organisms,prey species and their habitat,and other ecosystem components.Adverse effects to EFH may result from actions occurring within EFH or outside of EFH and may include site-specific or habitat-wide impacts,including individual,cumulative,or synergistic consequences of actions. 11. Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act Under the FWCA,federal agencies are required to consult with us if actions that the authorize,fund,or undertake will result in modifications to a natural stream or body of water. Federal agencies are required to consider the effects these modifications may have on fish and wildlife resources,as well as provide for the improvement of those resources.Under this authority,we consider the effects of actions on NOAA-trust resources, such as anadromous fish,shellfish,crustaceans,or their habitats,that are not managed under a federal fisheries management plan. Some examples of other NOAA-trust resources are listed below. Some of these species,including diadromous fishes,serve as prey for a number of federally-managed species and are therefore considered a component of EFH pursuant to the MSA.We will be considering the effects of your project on these species and their habitats as part of the EFH/FWCA consultation process and may make recommendations to avoid,minimize or offset and adverse effects concurrently with our EFH conservation recommendations. Please contact our Greater Atlantic Regional Fisheries Office,Notecled l esotirecs Divis'ion regarding potential impacts to marine mammals or species listed under the Endangered Species Act and the appropriate consultation procedures. 9 Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act Resources Describe habitat impact type(i.e.,physical,chemical, or biological disruption of Species known to spawning and/or egg development habitat,juvenile nursery and/or adult feeding occur at site(list or migration habitat).Please note,impacts to federally listed species of fish,sea others that may turtles,and marine mammals must be coordinated with the GARFO Protected apply) Resources Division. alewife American eel American shad Atlantic menhaden blue crab blue mussel blueback herring Eastern oyster horseshoe crab quahog soft-shell clams striped bass other species: other species: other species: 10 IN ry{r,Pa �Irr I'4... q.,t ^ rt oda r �'Yrr' ➢d,! di ��_y N 'Mp mill 1 1: 1 RAM N m ma n "�^ '� no, q u m mIN rid lyy r % ' a mfr 1" pry r G� ,ry w 4it p r am ri „ r, wo w _ ua ;, �� r� ➢a I v mix OF '� ICER r YY 4P ti J 6W d M ➢ en q�cd� a,.- Fna 4 PRKE ,T° NEW PIER "rv^"� I � ��,ti �� � i vi 1' ~& qTOWN OF PIRO cry ,.S�3'UTHiS I ,may FAN�C wJ Y"�� S r i �; '' LG���TIC71V 1"1�I=� tzeFgzEn�c,E p' CHA U:13214 IN YARDS r NOTES: K„ 1.ELEVATION DATUM 15 NAVD 1988. 2.TIDE DATA IS TAKEN FROM 2022 NOAA TIDE n ROTI iFELO TABLES REFERENCE:NEW LONDON/WE5T HARBOR FORSHA S.PROJECT DESCRIPTION:CONSTRUCT 9O--LF OF 4-FT WIDE WOOD PILE AND LIMBER PER OF WHICH VtLF 15 V WATERWARD OF THE APPARENT HIGH WATER UNE.
