The Iots will range in size from 80.381 s.£ (1.85 acres) to 272~682 s.f. (6.25 acres) with 75% of the parcel area preserved as mural buffer/open space. Access to the t0ts vo~l be provided over an existing 50' wide iL O.W. leading from Bayview Avenae todand~o£tbe pecoaie Land Trust (Sheltfisher Road). Vegetatmn and Wetlands. The two primary vegetation types located on the project site are a deciduous woodland commamit3( and the~deciduous freshwater wetlands situate within two (2) small groundwater depiessions located along the southern property line and within the adjacent southern property. Within the project $it¢, tlao species al0nlldance alld composition of the woodland vegetation type is variable depending upon the age class of the tree stems. In this regard, it appears that the northern sections of the site adjacent to Shellfiaher Road contain sm, ller stems and evidence that the area was once clear~ for agricultural use. Table 1.

First, the presence of productive lieshwater wetland communities typically results in ample and diverse food supplies iucluding seed, insects, insect larvae, and other terrestrial and aquatic invertebrates. In fact, freshwater wetland conmmnifies are known to typically support 1.15 - 4.5 times the number ofbirds than woodland area. Furthermore, the standing water present in the site's wetlands will bo Utilized by many passerine species for both drinking and bathing. Secondly, sections of the project site feature several distinct canopy layers including the upper branches of the mature oaks, the upper understorycomposed of small trees and large shrubs and the lower unde~tory and shrub layer. This vertical stratification is capable of supporting many bird species with val~ng habitat preferences. Furthermore, many of the floral species present within these habitat layers are known to provide excellent food resource for avian species. For instance, the fleshy fruits of the many species ofinvasive vines such as the Oriental bittersweet and grape (VitiS Sl~.), while negatively impacting plant communities, are preferred by a number of bird species. Lastly, the dead standing trees sj~fie .a~y enhance the site's avian habitat by providing food resourees (in particular, insects for Woodpecker species), nesting habitat for cavity neslSng speeiessuch as woodpee&ers and flycatchers, andmostin, g, habitat for~'birds ofprey such as l~awks and o~ls; The:mammal species expected to be found on this parcel are commonplace species tolerant of human aetiv/ty. These species are expected to be dism'outed throughout the property but may be particularly almndam near the wetland areas. Racoon (Procyon lotor) tracks were frequently ob~rved along the margins ofthe emergent wetland. Smaller manmmt species, including Eastern cottontail (Sylvilagusfloridamts), white footed mouse (Peromyscus Ieucopus), and short tailed shrew (Blarina brevicauda), are expected to be found in the abundant thickets of shrubs and vines as these areas provide protection from avian predators. Indicators of larger mammals such as white-~ed deer were observed throughom the site. provide habitat for severalcommou speciesof reptiles ~ species are expected to be found ia low abundances due to the limited aispersat and the anthropog~c alterations to both woodland and wetland ~ in the general Baswiew ~Com~lusion: The proposed cons!ruction o f four (4) single family dwellings located adjacent to Shellfisher Road will not signilic~mtiy impact wetlanOJwoodland resources as substantial buffer/open space areas 9 United States Department of the Interior FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE 3817 Luker Road Cortland. NY 13045 September 24, 2002 Mr. Dan Hall Land Use EcOlogical Services, 2576 So-cma A~venue Baiting Hollow, NY 11933 Inc. Dear Mt. Hall: This respogds to your letter of August 20, 2002, requesting information on the presence of Federally listed or proposed endangered or threatened species in the vicinity of the Hurtado property near Paradise Point inthe Town of Southold, Suffolk County, New York. Except for occasional transient individuals, no Federally listed or proposed endangered or threatened species under our jUrisdiction are known to exist in the project impact area. In addition, no habitat in the project impact area is currently designated or proposed "critical habitat" in accordance with provisions of the Endangered Species Act (87 Stat. 884 as amended; 16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.). Therefore, no BiologicalAssessment or further Section 7 consultation uader the ]Endangered Species Act is required with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service). Should project plans ch~ge, or if additionai information on listed or proposed species or critical habitat~becomes available, this detenuination may be reconsidered. A compilation of Federally listed and proposed'endangered and threatened species in New York is enclosed for your information. The above comments pertaining to endangered species under our jurisdiction are provided pursuant to the EndangeredSpecies Act. This response does not preclude additional Service comments under other leg)slation. Federally listed endangered and threatened marine species may be found near the project area. These species are under the jurisdiction ofthe National Marine Fisheries Service. You should contact Mr. Stanley Gorsld; Habitat and Protected Resources Division, Area Coordinator, National Marine Fisheries:Service, James J. Howard Marine Sciences Laboratory, 74 Magmder Road, HighlaMs, NJ 07732, for additional information (telephone: [732] 872-3037). For additional information on fish and wildlife resources or State4isted species, we suggest you contact the appropriate New YorkState Department of Environmental Conservation regional office(s) as Shown on the enclosed map, and: New York State Department of Environmental Conservation New York Natural Heritage Program Informati6n Services 625 Broadway Albany, NY 12233 (518) 402-8935 You~vere informed of the above by a telephone conversation on September 16, 2002. Since wetlands may be present, you are advised that National Wetlands Invento~ {NWl) maps may or may not be available for the project area. However, while the NWI maps are reasonably accurate, they should not be used in lieu of field surveys for determining the presence of wetlands or delineating v~etland boundaries for Federal regulatory purposes, Copies ofspecific NWI maps ~can beobtained from: Cornell Institute for Resource Information Systems 302 Rice Hall Cornell University Ithaca, NY 14853 (607) 255-4864 Work in certain waters and wetlands of the United States may require a permit from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps). If a permit is required, in reviewing the application pursuant to the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act, the Service may concur, with or without stipulations, or recommend denial of the permit depending upon the potential adverse impacts on fish and wildlife resources associated with project implementation. The need for a Corps permit may be determined by contacting the appropriate Corps office(s) as shown on the enclosed map.
