LWRP CONSISTENCY ASSESSMENT FORM
A. INSTRUCTIONS
All applicants for permits* including Town of Southold agencies, shall complete this CCAF for
proposed actions that are subject to the Town of Southold Waterfront Consistency Review Law. This
assessment is intended to supplement other information used by a Town of Southold agency in
making a determination of consistency. *Except minor exempt actions including Building Permits
and other ministerial permits not located within the Coastal Erosion Hazard Area.
Before answering the questions in Section C, the preparer of this form should review the exempt
minor action list, policies and explanations of each policy contained in the Town of Southold Local
Waterfront Revimli?:ation Program. A proposed action will be evaluated as to its si~ificant
beneficial and adverse effects upon the coastal area (which includes all of Southold Town).
If any question in Section C on this form is answered "yes", then the proposed action may affect the
achievement of the LWRP policy standards and conditions contained in the consistency review law.
Thus, the action should be analyzed in more detail and, if necessary, modified prior to making a
determination that it is consistent to the maximum extent practicable with the LWRP policy
standards and conditions. If an action cannot be certified as consistent with the LWRP policy
standards and conditions, it shall not be undertaken.
A copy of the LWRP is available in the following phces: online ~lt ~e T0Wn'of Southold's

Natural Coast Policies
Policy 4. Minimize loss of life, structures and natural resources form
flooding and erosion.
The proposed project has been designed to break wave energy which is
causing erosion in two separate areas. Both of these areas are exposed to
the fetch caused by wave energy generated out of the southwest. The first
site is adjacent to the "Clay pits" which is an area of existing freshwater
wetlands which is regulated by the Town Trustees and the N.Y.S.D.E.C. as
(SH-53) as indicated on the New York State Freshwater Wetlands Map for
the area of the project site.. The "Clay pits" is also an area that is used for
breeding and feeding by the Eastern Mud Turtle (Kinosternon subrubrum).
Due to the erosion of the bluffand beach adjacent to this area of freshwater
wetlands there is now the chance that the area may be breached and flooded
by tidal waters. The second site involved with this project is located to the
south of the first site. In this area the project has been designed to protect
an area of a unique geological formation of bluff that has been eroding
through "toe "erosion of the bluff. The purpose of the project is to protect
both of these areas from ongoing erosion.
As part of the design of this project we had first investigated using
revegation of the two areas. Given the physical characteristics of the beach,
the types and sizes of sand and the fact that there is no existing natural
vegetation growing on the beaches at these two sites it was determined that
plantings would not be successful.
Section 4.2 recommends that natural protective features be protected,
restored and enhanced and that destruction or degradation of these features
should be discouraged or prohibited. This project has been designed to
enhance natural protective features and to limit damage to natural shoreline
features. It is felt that this project complies with this policy.
Policy No 6. Protect and restore the quality and function of the Town of
Southold ecosystems including significant Coastal Fish and Wildlife
Habitats and Wetlands.
As described earlier this project has been designed to break wave energy
that is causing erosion at the project site. Should there be further erosion in
the area of the "clay pits" and if tidal waters entered this area there is a
strong possibility that adverse changes would be made to this ecosystem
which can not be reversed. Such changes to this area of freshwater wetlands
shall include physical loss of ecological components, degradation of
ecological components and functional loss of ecological components
associated with this area of freshwater wetlands. Furthermore the values of
the Significant Fish and Wildlife Habitat would be destroyed through direct
physical alteration and the viability of the habitat will be significantly
impaired beyond the tolerance range of important fish and wildlife species
such as the Eastern Mud Turtle which rely on the habitat. Values of the
habitat for fish and wildlife species will be lost due to the degradation of
existing habitat elements, change in environmental conditions, loss of
habitat values and adverse alteration of physical, biological and chemical
characteristics.
Should tidal waters enter the freshwater wetlands there shall be changes to
the physical parameters of the site such as loss of living space, circulation of
tidal waters were tidal waters have never existed, tidal flushing in an area
where it has never existed, turbidity, changes in water temperature,
sedimentation and loss of vegetation. There shall also be the chance of
changes to the biological parameters of the site such as a change in
community structure and food chain, species diversity, mortality rates and
migratory patterns. Should tidal waters enter this area there shall also be
changes in the chemical parameters of the area including dissolved oxygen,
carbon dioxide, acidity, salinity, dissolved solids, nutrients and organics.
This project falls under the jurisdiction of one other agency other than the
Southold Town Trustees. This agency is the New York State Department of
Environmental Conservation. Prior to submitting his application numerous
meetings both on site and offsite were held with representatives of the
N.Y.S.D.E.C. The purpose of said meetings was to assure that the project as
designed complies with the regulatory requirements of the Freshwater
Wetlands Act (Article 24 of the ECL) and the Tidal Wetlands Act (Article 25
of the ECL) for the protection of both tidal and freshwater wetlands. Being
that the proposed project shall be located landward of the Apparent High
Water Line and the Spring High Tide Line the project does not fall under the
jurisdiction of any other regulatory agencies t>ther that the Town Trustees
and the N.Y.S.D.E.C. and that the project as designed, meets with all
requirements of these agencies it is felt that this project'complies with this
policy.
