The Army Corps of Engineers completed the Feasibility Study for the Project in September 2019. The Final Feasabilty Study Report recommends the construction of a beachfill project along 8,500 I linear feet of shoreline adjacent to County Road 48. The Project was included in the 2020 Water Resources and Development Act, which authorized the Army Corps of Engineers to initiate the design and construction of the Project. The final report with supporting information can be found at the Army Corps website at: hUps:I/www.nanusace.3rmy.mil/Mis,aions/Civil-Wo ks/Proiects-in-New- York/Hashamomuck-Cove/. WRDA 2020 provided the Corps with approximately $1,500,000 in federal funding for the 100% Federal-funded design of the Project, and the Corps has provided DEC with a draft agreement for the design work. This agreement would only be for the design of the project and does not include construction. Construction would be cost shared between the Corps, DEC, and DEC's municipal local sponsor after the completion of the design phase of the project. 9 In order for DEC to take on the role of the non-federal sponsor and execute the design agreement, DEC's authority (Beach Erosion Protection Laws, Title 4, Chapter 7 Projects to Prevent Shore Erosion) requires DEC to have a local sponsor for construction that will share in the non-federal sponsor's costs and obligations. i Therefore, DEC cannot execute a design agreement with the Corps without the support of a local sponsor and the execution of a local design agreement. While the funding is already in place for the design, the Army Corps of Engineers is requesting strong assurances from DEC and our local sponsor that we are willing to support the Project through both design and construction before these design funds will be utilized. WW NE YORK Department of ,Ar,nr, _, zo muwaw^r' F.nvironmentzil Conservation R' t The DEC understands that to the extent the Disaster Relief Appropriation Act of 2013, Public Law 113-2 (127 stat. 24-25) funds appropriated by Congress are available, the Government will cost share construction of the Project at 65% Federal expense, with the remaining 35% to be split between the DEC and the local sponsor at 70% State and 30% local sponsor. If a Project Partnership Agreement were to be executed for the construction of the Project between DEC and the Town of Southold after the completion of the design, the responsibilities of the Town would include: cost-sharing construction and renourishment costs; provide the necessary real estate to construct and maintain the project area; indemnify both the DEC and the Federal Government; and conduct the Operations, Maintenance, Repair, Rehabilitation, and Replacement tasks at 100% Town cost. If the Town were to agree to be a local sponsor for the construction of the Project, the Town's cost share for initial construction is estimated to be approximately $1,675,590, based on a 2019 estimate. Your letter of support would not be a commitment for the funding of any portion of the Project. Your commitment for construction can only be made when a Local Project Partnership Agreement with the DEC for the Project is executed by the State Comptroller's office. The DEC's continued participation in the project will depend upon execution of a formal design agreement with a local sponsor. Attached is a letter provided from your office to DEC on December 12, 2019, indicating the Town would be willing to be the local sponsor for the Project, subject to a formal agreement and congressional authorization for construction of the Project. Having referenced this previous letter of support, please provide DEC a response within two weeks from the date of this letter regarding the Town's continued interest in supporting DEC as a local sponsor for the design and construction of the Project. If DEC does not receive a response within two weeks, we will assume the Town is no longer interested in sponsoring the Project. If you have any questions, please contact Matthew Chlebus, P.E. by email at mattew.chlebudec.n , ov, or by telephone at 518-402-8185. Sincerely, Ken Kosinski, P.E.

Town Hall, 53095 Route 25 SUPERVISOR P.O. Box 1179 Southold, New York 11971-0959 Fax (631) 765-1823 Telephone (631) 765-1889 OFFICE OF THE SUPERVISOR TOWN OF SOUTHOLD December 12, 2019 Alan Fuchs, P.E., Director Bureau of Flood Protection and Dam Safety New York Department of Environmental Conservation 625 Broadway Albany, New York 12233-3504 Re: Hashamomuck Cove Coastal Storm Risk Management Feasibility Study Dear Mr. Fuchs: I am writing in response to the request by the Department of Environmental Conservation ("Department") for the Town of Southold ("Town") to act as a local sponsor that will share in the non-federal sponsor's costs and obligations for the construction of the Hashamomuck Cove Coastal Storm Risk Management Project("Project"). The Town fully supports the Federal Government's and the Department's efforts to assist the residents of Hashamomuck Cove to protect their properties. To that end, the Town is willing to act as the local sponsor, subject to the successful execution of a formal agreement, and supports the recommended plan in the final feasibility report. As I am sure the Department is aware, over the past few winters the North Fork of Long Island was pummeled by no less than 4 Nor'easter storms, one of which was categorized as a"bomb cyclone." These storms, and other major storm events, did further, extensive damage to the Hashamomuck Cove area. It is critical that the U.S Army Corps of Engineers continues with and finalizes it's the Plan to protect the homes and property of the residents of Hashamomuck Cove, as well as County Road 48. As you are aware, the Town has supported the residents by hosting public forums, lending the expertise of Town personnel and acting as a liaison with other government agencies and elected officials, and stands ready to continue to provide whatever assistance that is within the Town's ability to provide. 2 Any comments by me recently indicating the contrary were a failure on my part to specify that Southold Town is in the process of identifying sources of revenue to cover the cost of our local share such as the creation of a special taxing district, or other options. The Chiefs Report allows us to move forward with the next phase of the project, and the Town looks forward to Congressional authorization for construction of the project. Simer y, Scott A.
