PO Box 2003 Bridgehampton, New York 11932 Dear Mr. Anderson: Thank you for spending time talking to me about different options that may be available for the mstoration/remediation of our bluff. As a result of 10 consecutive days of rain and the 14 inches total rainfall in October, a section of our bluffblew out and there was a mudslide onto our beach below. We think this occurred on or about October 15, 2005. There were similar mudslides up and down the beach and particularly to the East of our property. Please find enclosed a copy of our survey and a copy of the picture in the Suffolk Times, which will give you a sense of what we are dealing with. I met with the Southold Trustees on Wednesday, October 19, 2005 to request an emergency permit. My request was denied. Upon their recommendation for immediate actions I could take on my property, which would be outside of their jurisdiction, I have placed hay bales along the top of fl~e bluff to slow down ami deflect any runoff over the top of the bluff. I have also cordoned offthe top and bottom of the gully with hazard tape in the hope that no-une will trespass on our property. I undid that the Southold Trustees and the New York State Deparlment of Cunservation both have jurisdiction over the coastline along the Long Island Sound. 1 also understand that the steps prior to the issuance of a permit may take months. I was hoping for an immediate solution to stabilize the bluffto better endure the upcoming winter storms, but it does not seem likely that I will be allowed to take any actions until the Spring of 2006. 1 have an appointment on Wednesday November 9, 2005 in 6~e morning for the Southold T~ to come and make a site visit. When I am advised of the exact time I will notify you., perhaps you will be able to attend. Allen Connell fi'om USDA Natural Resources Conservation Services also visited our property and will be mailing me a report containing his observations. If you would like to talk to him, he can be reached at (631) 727~2315. I will forward a copy of his report to you upon its receipt. Thank you in advance for your attention to this matter.
