Since Larry Tuthill, P.E. has generational knowledge of the Town's Coastal Erosion Hazard

Re: Tidal Wetland Permits 4825, 4826, 4827, 4828
Coastal Erosion Permits 5065, 5066, 5067, 5068
Dear Town Trustees :
The purpose of this letter is to request a corrective amendment
to the resolution that you passed in response to my June 28, 2001
letter requesting a one year permit extension to the above CEMPs.
In the resolution you aborted the CEMP extensions to the Tidal
Wetlands Permits ' ending date of November 21 , 2001 , rightly
reasoning that by Town Regulations the validity of the CEMPs
required TWPs also. I present to you that using the same
reasoning and Town Regulations this requested amendment is
possible:
Resolved that the September 19, 2001 Resolution extending permits
CEMPs 5065, 5066, 5067, 5068 to November 21, 2001 be corrected to
read "Resolved that Tidal Wetlands Permits 4825, 4826, 4827, 4828
and Coastal Erosion Permits 5065, 5066, 5067, 5068 be extended to
September 22, 2002. "
The reasoning:
The Board of Trustees that issued the above Tidal Wetland Permits
on November 21 , 1997 had no comprehension that the proposed
projects were in the Coastal Erosion Hazard Area and that they
had ECL34 certified jurisdiction as of November 1991 . As a result
of that Board' s ignorance I had to spend thousands of hours in
research, countless sleepless nights, and hundreds and hundreds
of dollars preparing two unnecessary DEISs . One positive result
was I had learned enough to persuade you, the current board, to
issue on September 22, 1999 the above CEMPs, and to amend the
above TWPs to permit the use of fill . At that moment in time,
September 22, 1999 , the TWPs became valid with their coexistence
with the CEMPs. To allow the resolution' s current limited
extension to remain is to continue in the past Board' s ignorance.
To amend the resolution, as suggested, is to function as a Board
that comprehends its ' true jurisdictional powers .
Attached is a copy of the NYSDEC' s Letter of Certification.

(2)
In a recent consultation with Steven Cyzdek, Attorney for the
Governor ' s Office of Regulatory Reform (GORR) , about rectifying,
once and for all , this jurisdictional confusion with NYSDEC, he
said he needed a copy of the NYSDEC' s Letter of Certification.
When I asked Lauren and Charlotte for a copy of the Letter of
Certification, we were all aghast that none could be found in the
Board' s files. Knowing it had to exist, I back researched
through Chapter 37, which led to the Town Board' s Attorney' s
files, where it was located by Town Clerk staff in less than ten
minutes. It is in the GORR Attorney' s possession now, and he is
pursuing with the NYSDEC - Region 1 the justification for their
actions throughout the permit issuance process considering the
certification of Nov 1991 . Also to be explored by GORR is the
permit issuance procedures of DOS Coastal Resources Section and
the Corp of Army' s questionable use of the Coastal Federal
Regulations .
By acceding to my request for the corrective amendment you will
not only be mitigating the errors of a past Board, but also you
will be contributing to a final resolution of the jurisdictional
confusion between the NYSDEC-Region 1 and you in Coastal Erosion
Hazard Areas .
Thank you for your attention to this matter .
Sincerely,
ion R. Edler
PS. The very day I found the Letter of Certification, I gave a
copy to Lauren and Charlotte for your files.

Town of Southold, Suffolk County
Request for Necessary Information and Data
Dear Mr. Edler:
We received your response to our request for information on August 17, 2001. As we have indicated, it does not
appear appropriate to construct the proposed groins which will interfere with and prevent natural coastal processes.
The Department of State recommends that you withdraw your proposal.
If you do not plan to withdraw your proposal, pursuant to 15 CFR Part 930.58, the following data and information
is necessary to enable the Department of State to adequately assess the coastal zone effects of this proposed activity:
A copy of the Town of Southold Trustees permit for this project indicates the permit will expire on September 22,
2001. Please indicate whether or not you have requested and/or received an extension of this permit that was issued
on September 22, 1999.
You stated that the purpose of the activity is "Restoration of beach to original social, economic, recreational,
environmental and protective status." Please clarify,this statement, specifically,justifying the need for this proposal.
You have indicated that two existing rock groins control the estuary shoreline dynamics in the area. Bulkhead and
groin structures often result in increased erosion of downdrift areas by interfering with the natural accretion and
erosion processes. Rather than constructing additional shoreline stabilization structures, you should assess the
viability of removing the existing bulkhead and groin structures to restore natural coastal processes.
You have indicated that restoration of the 45'wave energy dispersal beach would restore public access to Aqua Foods
Inc-'s beach. It appears the dispersal beach would be privately owned. Please indicate how restoration of a private
beach would restore public access at this site and facilitate access to the beach at the end of East Gillette Drive.
Please provide a cop} of the deed and survey for this site that clearly shows your property lines in relation to [he
proposed structures and till. That information is necessary in order to assess the affects the proposal would have on
public land and uses of those lands.
Please prow ide the intixntation requested above as soon as possible. If this necessary information and data is riot
i.. X111, 4_l, 1ni1 I... 1>.i,- .'1„1 L io.i�l ...LiI:. �L., d„Ir.0
provided within thirty days of the date of this letter, the Department of State may close the file regarding this
proposed activity. If the Department closes the file and does not concur with the consistency certification provided
for this proposed activity, the consistency provisions of the federal Coastal Zone Management Act prohibit federal
agency authorization of the activity.
If you have any questions regarding this matter, please call me at(5 l8)486-7670.

Request for Necessary Data and Information
Dear Mr.Napolitano:
The Department of State received your Federal Consistency Assessment Form and consistency certification,
supporting information, and additional requested information regarding the above matter on August 22, 2001.
Pursuant to 15 CFR Part 930.58, the following data and information are necessary to enable the Department of
State to adequately assess the coastal zone effects of this proposed activity:
A copy of the permit purportedly issued for this project by the Town of Southold Town Trustees does not appear
to be executed and includes three special conditions for additional agreements regarding re-vegetation,
relocation, and maintenance. Please provide a copy of these additional local permit conditions to the Department
of State together with an fully executed copy of the permit. The Town Trustees permit for this project is valid for
a period of two years and will expire on September 22.2001. Please indicate whether or not this local
authorization to conduct the proposed activities on Town-owned lands been extended or re-issued.
%D NO//,
Your stated purpose for the proposed activities is the"[r]estoration of beach to original social,economic,
recreational, environmental and protective status." Please elaborate on this statement, particularly with regard to
"social"and "economic' status.
The upland at the proposed activity is purported to be entirely privately owned. Other than the Public Trust
Doctrine lands and waters of the intertidal area, please indicate if any other area of this property publicly
accessible.
You should assess the viability of removing the existing rock groin and adding beach nourishment material to the
shoreline instead of building new structures in the publicly owned intertidal area. Please provide a thorough
evaluation of alternative measures to the Department of State, particularly placing beach-nourishment material
along the project shoreline, for erosion protection.
Please provide the information requested above as soon as possible. If this necessary information and data are
not provided within thirty days of the date of this letter, the Department of State may close the file regarding this
proposed activity. If the Department closes the file and does not concur with the consistency certification
provided for this proposed activity, the consistency provisions of the federal Coastal Zone Management Act
prohibit federal agency authorization of the proposal.

Dear Director Poleto:
Since you have the authority to rectify abuses of the State Regulatory Process, I
submit materials showing such abuses by the NYSDEC.
1. Submission I - Issues of controversy from second DEIS
2. Submission 2 - Ray Cowen's statement in NY TIMES Oct. 1, 2000 article.
3. Submission 3 - Results of researching Cowen' statement led to March 30, 2001,
which has never been answered.
4. Submission 4 - August 16th, 2001 letter from Marc Heiman, Acting Chief, COE
Eastern Permit Section. Which is oblivious to the fact that the Southold Town
Board of Trustees had the final jurisdiction to issue the Coastal Erosion
Management Permits which the applicants possess.
Along with the intent of requesting of you a solution to this abused permit
process, another intent is to bring to your attention the conflict and abuses that lie
ahead if PEPCCMP HLR-2.2 is implemented, as recommended, with NYSDEC as the lead.
What has been learned from this experience is
1. The NYSDEC, without an on-site inspection, from behind a desk, with pre-
conceived assumptions on coastal shoreline dynamics, reviews coastal
engineers' applications with staff who are not state licensed as engineers,
contary to the State Engineer Licensing Law; and in so doing bend the State
Regulations to their preconceived conclusions..
2. On the other hand, overlooked is the fact that the local Township Boards are
local residents independently elected by voters. As such they know the
difference between Ocean and Sound coastal shoreline dynamics as against
Estuary coastal shoreline dynamics. On an application the whole elected body
makes an on-site inspection; followed by a public hearing where there is a
give-and-take amongst the board, the applicants, the public and coastal
engineers before a decision is made conforming to the regulations. Isn't it
logical that this is the superior way to function?
Following the example of ECL 34, implementation of PEPCCMP HLR-2.2 should be
given to the local independently elected Town Boards.
Sorry that there is so much material. But in a way it only scratches the surface.
Sincerely yours,

Dear Mr. Edler:
On June 18 , 1997 and July 6, 2001, the New York District of
the U. S . Army Corps of Engineers received requests for a
Department of the Army jurisdictional determination and
authorization for the installation of groins and placement of
fill in Orient Harbor, Gardiners Bay located at East Marion, Town
of Southold, Suffolk County, New York.
The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation
(NYSDEC) issued a Positive Declaration for these proposed
activities under State Environmental Quality Review Act
Regulations in June, 1998 . As a result of this Positive
Declaration, an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) which
encompasses all of the above-referenced applications must be
prepared.
Therefore, these applications are being withdrawn pending
receipt of a NYSDEC-approved Draft EIS. In light of this, we are
closing our files on Application Nos . 1997-07870-L2 ; 2001-01018-
L2; 2001-01019-L2 ; and 2001-01030-L2 .
You are reminded that a Department of the Army permit may be
required for any work on this site . If you decide to implement
any project on this site in the future, please submit a timely
and completed application for our review. The action taken at
this time will in no way adversely affect your future request or
any other applications you may submit for work in waters of the
United States .

Attorney Steven Cyzdek
GORR - Gov. Alfred E. Smith State Building - 17th Floor
POB 7027
Albany, NY 12225 - 0027 FEB — 4
Dear Attorney Cyzdek:
Attached is memo with matters addressed at 02/01/03 meeting.
Result: On Town Attorney's advice the Coastal Erosion Management Permits 5065, 5066,
5067, 5068 and Tidal Wetlands Permits 4825, 4826, 4827, 4828 were extended to
November 2002. Keeping them current to aid GORR's corrective action.
The basic problem to focus on is besides all NYSDEC Region 1's erroneous and non-
jurisdictional use of the Regulations in arriving at the Positive Declaration do they, as
claimed to you, have any Tidal Wetlands Jurisdiction in the Coastal Erosion Hazard Areas
of the Town of Southold? Remembering that the Town Board of Trustees have been an
elected part of Town Government long before ECL, consider this precedence.
1971 - Chapter 97, Wetlands Ordinance of the Town of Southold
Adopted by the Town Board of the Town of Southold June 29, 1971
1974 - ECL
1977 - ECL Article 25 - Tidal Wetlands Act Regulations §661 effective Aug 20, 1977.
1984 - ECL Aricle 34 - Coastal Erosion Hazard Act §505 perfected the policy of the Tidal
Wetlands Act by specifing areas subject to erosion and thus requiring stricter
standards: i.e. adding to policy the protection of "natural protective features"
"man-made property" and "human life" with structures designed by professional
engineers with survival longevity and maintenance of at least 30 years; extended
offshore jurisdiction from 6 feet to 15 feet water depth; redefined beach
definition from landward of mean high water to landward of mean low water.
1988 - Maps of Coastal Erosion Hazard Areas of Town of Southold were finalized.
1991 - November 6th - Town Board of Trustees certified under ECL Article 34 §505.17(a)
as Administrators of ECL Article 34 §505
Southold Town Ordinance requiring in a Coastal Erosion Hazard Area not only a
Coastal Erosion Management Permit, but also a Tidal Wetlands Permit.
ECL Article 34 §34-0107.4 Department Regulation of Coastal Erosion Hazard Areas states:
"Nothing in this section shall be construed to prohibit any local government from
adopting and enforcing any ordinances or local laws, or exercising any other lawful
powers within any area governed by erosion hazard area regulations adopted pursuant to
this section, provided, however, that the extent of any inconsistency between a county,
city, town or village ordinance or local law and erosion hazard area regulations adopted
pursuant to this section, the latter shall apply.'
Since the Town Trustees, with proper jurisdictional authority of ECL Articles 34 & 25 can
review and issue permits in a Coastal Erosion Hazard Area; to honor NYSDEC Region 1's
contention that they still have jurisdiction in a Coastal Erosion Hazard Area under ECL
Article 25 § 661 would not only be an unnecessary duplication of the Town Trustees
actions, but also would be condoning an action inconsistent with the intent of ECL Article
34 §34-0107.4 & §505.17(a) by allowing them, using a less stringent ordinance (ECL
Article 25 §661), to have the final determination as has happened in this matter.
NYSDEC Region 1's cavalier administration of ECL Articles 8, 25. 34, and 70 not only add
unnecessary confusion and consternation to the Suffolk Town Board of Trustees task, but
also unnecessary costs to the proposed projects property owners.
Certainly GORR has the authority to rectify this situation. The detailed specificity in
these documents is intended to assist you in this task.
Thank you for your perseverence with this problem.

Application I.D. 1-4738-00735/00007
Dear Ms. Gerbino:
Thank you for the list of DEIS reviewers.
Judge O'Connell recommended that the following information be shared with
NYSDEC - Region 1 to see the reaction.
In preparation for extending the November 18, 1997 permits for the above
applications, the Southold Town Board of Trustees, at their September 22, 1999 meeting,
took the following actions:
1. To clarify the record, they stated that the November 18, 1997 issued
permits were CEHA permits.
2. They amended them to permit sand filling.
The reason for the action was that on close scrutiny of the NYSDEC Inventory Map
722-554, the delineation line revealed that the majority of the proposed projects' area was
in the adjacent area, not in the tidal wetlands.
When the applications were received, on June 3 1997, for review by NYSDEC-
Region 1,
was the delineation line researched?
If no, why not?
If yes, why was it not respected?
were the applications researched as being in a Coastal Erosion Hazard Area?
If no, why not?
If yes, why were they and the DEIS never reviewed by the NYSDEC state
licensed Professional Engineers knowledgeable in coastal erosion?
Enclosed is a copy of Exhibit B 1 showing the delineation line overlay.
-A prompt response would be appreciated.

Determination of Significance TOWN OF SC�HTHnLD
Project Number 1-4738-01609/00001 Date 6/10/98
This notice is issued pursuant to Part 617 of the implementing regulations pertaining to Article
8 (State Environmental Quality Review Act) of the Environmental Conservation Law.
The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation , as lead agency,
has determined that the proposed action described below may have a significant effect on the
environment and that a Draft Environmental Impact Statement will be prepared.
Name of Action: John Edler
SEOR Status: Type I ❑
Unlisted 12
Description of Action:
Construct two 40 ft. timber groins for erosion control.
Location: (Include street address and the name of the municipality/county.A location map of appropriate
scale is also recommended.)
130 Cleaves Point Road, East Marion, Town of Southold, Suffolk County_
SEOR Positive Declaration Page 2
Reasons Sf�inlg,Ibis Determination:
This project involves construction of two 40 ft. timber groins. The
stated purpose is for erosion control; however, it is likely that
construction of these groins has the potential to cause the following
significant impacts:
* disruption of the natural movement of sand within the littoral system
on both the subject and downdrift properties;
* acceleration of the rate of shoreline/beach erosion of subject and
downdraft properties;
* resultant loss of benefits derived from tidal wetlands such as flood,
hurricane and storm control, open space/aesthetic appreciation, and
recreational use.
Further, the project is not consistent with the State Coastal Management
Policies, one of which requires that construction of erosion protection
structures be undertaken so that there is no measurable increase in
erosion or flooding at the site or at other locations.

The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (the "Departm
the groins is erosion control. ent') has
carefully reviewed the above applications for permits to const ruct groins. The stated purpose for
The project does not meet the standards for permit issuance on a tidal wetland pursuant to
Tidal Wetlands Land Use Regulations, 6NYCRR, Part 661.9(a) & (b)(1)(i)(ii) & (iii). Groin
construction in this area is not compatible with the policy of the Tidal Wetland Act to preserve and
protect tidal wetlands and to prevent their despoliation and destruction. The proposed groins will
have undue adverse impacts to beaches (tidal wetlands) and adjacent properties due to the
containment of any sand moving within the littoral process.
In addition. the project is not compatible with public health/welfare. A serious downdriit
consequence of groin construction will be an increase in erosion to properties outside of the project
J. Geidemann- 11/3/97 • • 2
area,thereby causing detrimental impacts to the natural protective features (beach/tidal wetlands).
Additionally, erosion between the groins will be exacerbated.
Moreover, the project is neither reasonable nor necessary taking into account reasonable
alternatives that would minimize impacts to natural protective features and property. The
Department recommends the installation of a stone splash pad landward of the bulkhead to reduce
scouring of the upland area.
Further, the Department concurs with the observations presented in the New York State
Department of State letter by Fred Anders, Coastal Resources Specialist,to Mr. Albert Krupski of
the Town of Southold, dated May 8, 1997 (copy enclosed) which includes a detailed discussion
regarding justification for groin construction, engineering practice, rate of erosion, and likely
downdtift impacts.
Please be advised that because the project does not meet the standards for permit issuance and
the fact that that the groins(s) will have significant impacts, it is the Department's position that the
project should be abandoned.
Lastly, pursuant to the State Environmental Quality Review Act(SEQRA) the Department
is lead agency for this project; however, because of the potentially significant impacts which will
result if the groins are constructed, a Negative Declaration (determination of significance) has not
been completed by this agency. Accordingly, should the applicant(s) wish to pursue the proposal,
it is likely that a Positive Declaration will be issued which will warrant the preparation of an
environmental impact statement(EIS).
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.
Sincerely, y� /

• Eri&eeri.ng practice (as per the Corps of Engineers Shore Protection Manual)
indicates that groins should be spaced 2 to 3 times their length. In this case, 40fr
long groins should be at least 80ft apart. The design presented either has too many
groins, or the groins are too long.
• The National Shoreline Studv by the Corps of Engineers notes that " only when
large amounts of sand are in transit is this method [_groins] effective. The
accelerated erosion downdrift which usually results from groins is minimized when
sand is actinically added to the syste n." It is standard practice is to fill the groin
compartments with sand when thea are constructed to prevent downdrift erosion.

These limited observations suggest that construction of groins may be more than is necessary to
abate erosion. Other methods may be effective. Implementation of these other methods co
have fewer detrimental impacts. In genuiderai. it is preferred that the method with the least potential
for environment harm be emploved first, and that less preferable methods, such as groins, be used
only if other methods can be shown not to be adequate for the level of protection necessary at a
site.
At this particular location several alternatives should be considered individually or in combination:
• The next time the inlet to the east is dredged, place the sand in the littoral zone to
the west of the inlet. The sand will eventually drift down to this site and naturally
replenish the beach.
• Truck in sand/cobble fill to restore beach elevation. Slow erosion rates over the
long term make beach nourishment feasible. Sources of sand could be from an
upland source, from the fillet captured behind the inlet to the east (this would be
sand bypassing), or from the large accumulation of sand at Youngs Point (sand
backpassing). Using coarse fill material will help increase stability.

Dear Mr. Haggerty,
This letter concerns the John Edler, Anthony Napolitano,
Frank Tommasini & Norman Taylor applications to build groins
and fill them with sand.
To our knowledge there is no mention of dredging in the
application.
The fill material may come from an approved dredge project,
however, as long as it is approved clean fill we are satisfied.

Dear Jill:
A few weeks back, Matic Saleafta, representing our community, stopped-by your office to inquire about
the matter before the Trustees as reported in the attached article. In as much as Clewes Point is
adjacent to property noted in the article, and we too are experiencing erosion, please include our site in
future field inspections in relation to this project. Should we have to express our problem through
additional communications, please advise.
We would appreciate notification of a field inspection and would plan to meet with the Trustees at this
time.
Thank you for your assistance.
Sincerely yours. (� Q��

Dear Mr. Krupski:
Enclosed is my response to your letter dated May 1, 1997 regarding groin applications in the
vicinity of Cleaves Pt. Road. I hope my comments and observations are helpful.
After reviewing the information provided I offer the following observations:
• All of the structures (houses) are a long distance from the bulkhead and beach,
indicating that they are in no danger from erosion or flooding. Protection of a
bulkhead or other secondary structures, or prevention of land loss, is often not
sufficient justification for groin construction.
• Engineering practice (as per the Corps of Engineers Shore Protection Manual)
indicates that groins should be spaced 2 to 3 times their length. In this case, 40ft
long groins should be at least 80ft apart. The design presented either has too many
groins, or the groins are too long.
• The National Shoreline Study by the Corps of Engineers notes that " only when
large amounts of sand are in transit is this method [groins] effective. The
accelerated erosion downdrift which usually results from groins is minimized when
sand is actinically added to the system." It is standard practice is to fill the groin
compartments with sand when they are constructed to prevent downdrift erosion.
However, filling the groin compartments does not guarantee that downdrift
impacts will not occur.

• There was obviously confusion in trying to address the questions proposed by the
board. Although well intended, I do not think the answers provided are useful in
addressing the issues.
Upon receipt of your letter, I reviewed the US Geological Survey topographic map and National
Ocean Service nautical chart for the area. I also examined aerial photography for 1982 and 1988.
Unfortunately, I did not have any recent photos available Based on review of these data sources
the following observations were made:
• The net direction of sediment transport in this area is from east to west. Given the
limited wave fetch distances surrounding this site and the proximity of the channel,
movement of sand alongshore might be due to currents as well as waves.
• Long shore perpendicular structures updrift and downdrift of the site have trapped
significant sand. Trapping of sand updrift of the properties could be contributing
to erosion at this site. Construction of short groins at this site may have limited
value given updrift sand losses.
• Quick measurements of beach width in 1982 and 1988 seemed to be similar to
present day (as per the tax map provided), suggesting that erosion over the long
term is slow (it could be incremental - no erosion for long periods followed by a
rapid loss).
These limited observations suggest that construction of groins may be more than is necessary to
abate erosion. Other methods may be effective. Implementation of these other methods could
have fewer detrimental impacts. In general, it is preferred that the method with the least potential
for environment hann be employed first, and that less preferable methods, such as groins, be used
only if other methods can be shown not to be adequate for the level of protection necessary at a
site.
At this particular location several alternatives should be considered individually or in combination:
• The next time the inlet to the east is dredged, place the sand in the littoral zone to
the west of the inlet. The sand will eventually drift down to this site and naturally
replenish the beach.
• Truck in sand/cobble fill to restore beach elevation. Slow erosion rates over the
long term make beach nourishment feasible. Sources of sand could be from an
upland source, from the fillet captured behind the inlet to the east (this would be
sand bypassing), or from the large accumulation of sand at Youngs Point (sand
backpassing). Using coarse fill material will help increase stability.
• No action. Since there is no threat to homes and we can expect the bulkhead to
prevent upland loss, only the fronting beach is in immediate jeopardy. Slow
erosion rates suggest that recent beach loss may be an unusual instance that might
not continue.
• Relocate the bulkhead landward. Removal of the existing bulkhead would allow
natural erosion of the upland behind, thus providing sediment to nourish the beach
The properties have sufficient back yard to move the bulkhead landward. In this
new position it would act as a"wall of last resort", in front of a widened beach.
The wide beach would provide a higher level of protection to the bulkhead, and
reduce the effects of the bulkhead on the fronting beach. Slow erosion rates
suggest that this could be effective for many years
The present applications, and future applications for sand placement or other activities, will
require permits from the Army Corps of Engineers and the Department of Environmental
Conservation. A coastal consistency review will be required from this Department. The
applicants may wish to discuss any proposed variations to their application with the agencies
before filing
If you have any questions regarding the above, please give me a call. Good luck in your decision
making process

Construction of Groins
Town of Southold, Gardiners Bay
Dear Ms. Gerbino:
Thank you for sending the Department of State (DOS) copies of the Coastal Assessment Form (CAF) and
supporting information regarding the proposed groin construction activities in the Town of Southold. We
have reviewed the submitted information as well as information on file at this office. The following
comments and enclosures are provided for your consideration.
In accordance with Executive Law Article 42 and implementing regulations in 19 NYCRR Part 600.3 (c).,
(copy attached), when the Secretary has identified State agency actions which are likely to affect the coastal
area, those State agency actions are required to be undertaken in a manner consistent to the maximum extent
practicable with the coastal management program (or approved Local Waterfront Revitalization Program).
Pursuant to 6 NYCRR Part 617.14(f)(10)(i), when an action is not in an approved local waterfront
revitalization program area, an identification of the applicable coastal policies of Executive Law, Article 42
as contained in 19 NYCRR 600.5, and a discussion of the effects of the proposed action on, and their
consistency with such policies, must be produced. Since permits from the New York State Department of
Environmental Conservation(NYSDEC) may be required for various portions of this project, NYSDEC must
make its own determination regarding the consistency of its action with the policies and purposes of the state's
coastal management program. No State agency involved in an action shall carry out, fund or approve the
action until it has complied with the provisions of Article 42 of the Executive Law.

The following items should be addressed within your policy analysis. Questions and comments are listed with
regard to each of the applicable policies of 19 NYCRR 600.5.
Flooding and Erosion Hazard Policies:
(1) Whenever possible, use of nonstructural measures to minimize damage to natural resources and property
from flooding and erosion. Such measures shall include:
(i) the setback of buildings and structures;
(ii) the planting of vegetation and the installation of sand fencing and drainage systems;
(iii) the reshaping of bluffs; and
(iv) the flood-proofing of buildings or their elevation above the base flood level.
(2) Mining, excavation or dredging in coastal waters shall not significantly interfere with the natural coastal
processes which supply beach material to land adjacent to such waters and shall be undertaken in a manner
which will not cause an increase in erosion of such land.
(4) Activities or development in the coastal area will be undertaken so as to minimize damage to natural
resources and property from flooding and erosion by protecting natural protective features, including
beaches....
(5) Activities and development, including the construction or reconstruction of erosion protection structures,
shall be undertaken so that there will be no measurable increase in erosion or flooding at the site of such
activities or development or at other locations.
Our comments are included within the attached copy of correspondence from Fred Anders of our office to
Albert Krupski Jr. of the Town of Southold. In his letter, Mr. Anders discusses a variety of issues pertaining
to construction of groins within this area of Gardiners Bay. The letter also contains alternatives to
construction of the groins which if implemented, may provide protection that results in fewer detrimental
impacts to the existing natural protective features. Please consider these suggestions in your evaluation of
the proposed groin projects with respect to the goals and objectives of the New York State Coastal
Management Program.
We hope that this information will assist you in your review of this proposed project. If you have any
questions regarding this letter or any other aspect of New York State's Coastal Management Program, do not
hesitate to call me at (518) 474-6000.

Dear Mr. Krupski:
The following are answers to the .April 25th questions with respect to the above referenced
applications:
1. Movement of sand. When wind blows from east, sand movement is toward west.
When wind from west, sand moves east. When wind blows from south, sand
moves toward shore.
2. amount of material in net (cell between inlets) - 7000 Cu. yds.
3. Zone of transport. Mixed shoal - rocks, clay, little grass. Rolling surf. No
Breaker Zone. No Swish Swash or Sand Splash area.
4. Percentage of sand altered. If groins not filled 900 Cu. yds of 7000 cu yds (13%)
If groins filled 49 Cu. yds. of 7000 Cu. yds (.0070/c,)
5. Anticipated down drift. Predominantly Fast to West. In last 2 years properties
lost 1083 cu. yds toward west. .At present Oyster Co. Inlet clogged by
approximately 2000 cu. yds of sand. There is another aproximately 667 Cu yds of
sand on the shore from last year's dredging. Some of it obviously from our
properties.
6. Overall objective - to restore Swish Swash (Sand Splash) area that existed for 34
yrs until 1995.
7. Fill - with owner's permission, from Oyster Co. land pile and inlet, which is sand
that actually drifted from our properties.
Hopefully the above answers will assist you in your review, and result in the issuance of
the permits.

RE: Edler, Napolitano, Lieblich-Harper, Taylor Coastal Erosion Management Permits
Dear Judge O'Connell:
Back again.
Since we have now submitted two Deis, we trust that our questions will be treated by
you as a sincere effort on our part to clarify a process that had gone wrong; and not as
claimed in past letters as another attempt to avoid doing another DEIS.
How long are these facts going to be ignored?
1. The fact that the proposed projects properties are included on CEHA map 29-0
approved by the NYSDEC Commissioner on August 29, 1988.
2. The fact that as of October 1991 the Southold Town Board of Trustees were
certified "to assume and exercise jurisdiction" under ECL Article 34 §505.
To understand what this means please see Attachment A.
From receipt of the above applications in March 1997 to permit issuance November 18,
1997 the Southhold Town Board of Trustees were, not only, assuming and exercising their
jurisdiction under ECL Article 34 §505 Coastal Erosion Management Regulations; but also
assuming and exercising their jurisdiction under ECL Article 8 §617.4; §617.5; §617.6(a);
§617.7(c); which led to the determination that "the action is a Type 9 action" , and that
they had "no further responsibilities under this part." §617.6(a)(1 )(i)
When the Town Trustees issued the permits November 18, 1997 they had met, not only,
all the jurisdictional requirements of ECL Article 34 §505; but also ECL Article 29
§661.5(b) Use 29 LZ GCP AA as delineated on NYSDEC TIDAL WETLANDS Inventory Map
722-554.
They also processed the permit applications under the implementing regulations of UPA
6NYCRR Part 621.3(a)(1 ) Engineers and as Minors §621.3(c); §621.4(a)(4)(ii)- Title 5 of
ECL article 15 and Part 608 of this Title: §621.4(e)(2)-section 401 of the Clean Water
Act, and Part 608 of this Title: §621.4(k)(2)-ECL article 25 and Part 661 of this Title:
§621.4(p)(3)-ECL article 34 and Part 505 of this Title.
At the same time NYSDEC Region 1 should have been processing the applications limited
to the provisions of ECL Article 25 §661 and 6NYCRR §621 as Environmental Analyst
Marilyn E. Peterson processed our adjacent neighbor Licciardi's application as a Title II
GCP Minor. It too is on CEHA 29-0, subject to ECL Article 34 and the same ECL Article
25 §661.5(b)Use 29 LZ GCP.
Daniel P. O'Connell, ALJ (2)
Here is NYSDEC Region 1's performance on the above applications.
6/3/97 - Walter F. Meyer, Coastal Resources Specialist, thanking Ms. Gerbino " for
sending DOS copies of CAF and supporting information" and including a
copy of Flooding and Erosion Hazard Policies.
6/9/97 - Ms. Gerbino sent a Lead Agency Coordination Request to the Town
Trustees with the SEOR Classification - "Unlisted'
6/9/97 - Ms. Gerbino sent a Notice of Incomplete Application to the applicants
6/25/97 - Ms. Gerbino sent a Notice of Receipt of Resubmission.
NOTE: Besides mentioning construction of groins she errs in adding
"dredge", which was not in the resubmission.
11/3/97 - Ms. Gerbino sends Notice of Incomplete Application to the applicants
"because of the potentially significant impacts which will result if the groins are
constructed ... should the applicants wish to pursue the proposal, it is likely that a
Positive Declaration will be issued which will warrant the preparation of an (EIS)
3/27/98 - Information obtained from FOIL. revealed "Fax Transmission cover sheet
and attached DRAFT Denial of Permit Letter for Mr. John Edler from George
Hammarth, Permit Administrator DEP, to Tim Cook, DEP-Central Office"
3/30/98 - Willem R. Adriance, Chief Permit Administrator on Edler request states
your request for a tidal wetlands permit is denied
Reasons sited include references to erosion, flood, hurricane and storm
control..
NOTE: Please refer to your June 2, 1998 letter in which , in preparation for
the hearing, you had to remind NYSDEC Region 1 in 211 'that the Regional
Attorney and the Regional Director did not sign the Hearing Request.
And in 311 "that the Region I Department Staff did not make a
determination of significance as required by ECL Article 8 (SEQRA)
Please also remember that the July 10, 1997 deadline for Complete or
Incomplete was missed, as well as the August 24, 1997 deadline to issue or
deny on the " it is likely that a Positive Declaration will be issued" routine.
What is intriquing is how thorough the Department's knowledge is in referencing regula-
tions to support their position, and how uninformed they are about ECL Article 34 §505.
Since NYSDEC Region 1 is implementing state legislation, this letter is being sent to our
local Senator and Assemblywoman with the hope that action can be taken in the
legislature to assure total NYSDEC recognition, all the time, of ECL Article 34 and
independently elected Town Boards of Trustees.
With this background information please review your September 17, 1998 letter p. 2 and
pages following where the subject of Coastal Erosion Hazard Areas Act, Uniform
Procedure Act, and SEOR are discussed by you.
Daniel O'Connell, ALJ (3)
While it was not your intent, what was happening was you were supporting NYSDEC
Region 1's usurping of the Town Trustees jurisdiction under ECL Article 34 4505, and
changing the Town Trustee's SEOR Declaration from a Title II GCP Minor to an Unlisted
GCP Major requiring a DEIS under SEOR.
For 31/2 years now the NYSDEC-Region 1 has been usurping and thwarting the Town
Trustees' authority, under ECL Article 34 'to assume and exercise jurisdiction" in this
matter. Isn't it about time that NYSDEC Region 1 issue the Permits?
Sincerely,
John R. Edler

RE: Edler, Napolitano, Lieblich-Harper, Taylor Coastal Erosion Management Permits
(Attachment A)
ECL Article 34 §505.1 Purpose
"...local implementation is not required until after department has filed coastal
erosion hazard area maps for a municipality."
ECL Article 34 §505.2(t) Definitions
"' Local program' means a coastal erosion management ordinance, or local law, or
any other ordinance, local law, zoning regulation, subdivision regulation, site plan
approval regulation, or other application of police power a local government may
use in carrying out the purposes and policies of the act and meeting the minimum
standards of section 505.17 of this part"
ECL Article 34 §505.4 Applicability
(a) This section enumerates the instances when the department will exercise
jurisdiction over the issuance of coastal erosion management permits. With the
exception of regulated activities undertaken by state agencies, the department
will not assume or exercise such jurisdiction until after all appropriate levels of
local governments have had an opportunity to assume and exercise such
jurisdiction."
ECL Article 34 §505.5(e) Coastal erosion management permits; regulatory procedures
All regulated activities are subject to the review procedures required by the
State Environmental/ Quality Review Act (SEOR), article 8 of theEnvironmental
Conservation Law."
ECL Article 34 §505.17 Minimum standards for certification of local programs
"(a) Local programs submitted by local governments to the commissioner for
certification pursuant to subdivisions 34-0105(1) and 34-0106(1) of the act must
meet, at the minimum, the standards, restrictions and requirements set forth in
sections 505.5, 505.6, 505.7, 505.8, 505.9, 505.12, and 505.13 of this Part This
Part does not prohibit any local government from adopting and enforcing a local
program that regulates actions or uses of land more stringently than this Part.
(b) Whenever terms relating to the commissioner or department are used in the
subdivisions and sections listed in subdivision (a) of this section, local government
should substitute for those terms the title of the local official or agency perform-
ing the equivalent function.'

APPENDIX E
SUPPORTIVE DOCUMENTATION
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers summarize on their websight and in their
technical notes the following recommendations, from their Shore Protection
Manual, on generally acceptable engineering principles for low profile groin
design and beach fill, with demonstrated success, which "may minimize potential
damage to other beaches and "help stabilize the native beach sand but impound
very little of the longshore transport".
1. http://sparky.nce.usace.army.mil/shore protection
"BEACH FILL- Beaches are usually thought of as one of the most attractive and
valued elements of shore-line recreational activities, but they are also a
first line of defense against erosion damage, protecting the area behind
them. In normal weather, gently sloping beaches cause incoming waves to
break and use up their energy before reaching inland areas. ...Adding fill to
a beach...is often both economical and effective. ...The slope of the filled
beach should also match the natural slope as closely as possible. ...Beach
fill is often used in combination with construction of a ...groin field. These
combinations may minimize potential damage to other beaches or provide a
beach where the littoral drift cannot be effectively trapped.
GROINS- Groins are suitable erosion control measures where a beach is
desirable, and they are compatible with most recreational activities.
DESIGN- Groin design completely depends on conditions at the site.
GROIN HEIGHT- The structures should be no higher than the level of a
reasonable beach, so that when they are filled the sand is free to pass
downdrift to neighboring beaches."
2. CETN-III-10
"GROIN and BEACH FILL - Lower groins, which follow the profile of the existing
beach, help stabilize the native beach sand but impound very little of the
longshore transport. ...If groins are used to protect a beach fill, the outer
end of the groin would be placed where the design beach slope intersects
the existing bottom. ...To prevent flanking the landward end must be...tied
to protective structures running along the shoreline."

Notice of Insufficiency of Draft Environmental Impact Statement

East Marion, New York 11939
RE: Draft Environmental Impact Statement for Edler, Napolitano, Taylor & Lieblich Groin
Proposal
Dear Mr. Edler:
P.
Beach nourishment is generally practiced by nourishing a beach that already exists above high
water. In this case, the beach area would be considered an adjacent area rather than a wetland.
Under such conditions, filling would generally not result in significant habitat changes such as
those proposed by this project. In addition, filling in an adjacent area is considered a generally
compatible use with less impact on the environment than filling in a wetland. Such a beach area
is not present on the subject property and no confirmable data is supplied to indicate when and if
the proposed beach existed at this site. The project sponsors indicate that a 45' wide beach existed
on this site in 1992. However, the copy of the photograph presented is specified as taken in 1984.
Appropriate data and sources should be supplied to support this statement in this DEIS.
Once the DEIS is revised, please submit 4 copies for review.
Sincerely,
Darleen M. cerbino
Environmental Analyst
