problems occurred on the top of the bluff not the toe.
TRUSTEE KRU~SKI: I thought we saw toe failure there.

edges seem to leaVe a lot to be desired.

2. Suffolk Environmental Consultiug on behalf of CAROL CASSRT;
requests a Wetland Pe~mitto construct a 10' X 12' sitting area
attached to existing catwalk. Located 800 Willow Point Road,
Southold. SCTM ~56-5-39.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Is there anyone here who would like to speak on
behalf of the applicant?
BRUCE ANDERSON: Suffolk Environmental Consulting on behat~ of CAROL
CASSEL. Here is the affidavit of posting. When I first came involved
Board of Trustees 3 October 23, 1996
in this you where looking at was a "T" shaped sit~%ng area. Which was
twice the size at what you see now. My reco~Lat~endation was to cut it
in half. They initially located it down above the rocks along the
shore line. We met in the field. My testimony was that it was done in
variance with the standard set forth in the wetland ordinance law.
Your suggestion was to come back and locate it landward of the tidal
wetlands line. I talked to my client, it is acceptable to him. I have
revised the survey's accordingly.
TRUSTEE WENCZEL: How come it is over the wetland line?
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: That is further back than what we discussed.
TRUSTEE WENCZEL: That corner is over the wetlands.
BRUCE ANDERSON: It is the surveyor. If you want to say move it back a
foot or two, we don't really care ~bout that
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Any other coL,~L~ent? CAC comment: rec~L~,ends
disapproVal, permit to be denied because the project would have an
impact on the wetland vegetation. CAC suggest t~at the deck be built
upland, i.e. lawn area.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: CAC did not see the revised drawing. So their
co~mtents are not applicable.
TRUSTEE WENCZEL: I think that should have an opportunity to review it.
TRUSTEE HOLZAPFEL: Is there a time limit on this Bruce?
BRUCE ANDERSON: Probably not. If you w~nt to take another two weeks
to review it.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Technically the CAC should take a look at.
TRUSTEE HOLZAP~EL: It intrudes very close to the shoreline. My o~ber
side is that, I think it interferes with shoreline activity of
natural things. If you are going to have everybody sitting down at
that spot, you can influence what lives in that area. That is my only
point. I do think it does have an effect.
A motion was made by TRUSTEE KRUPSKI and seconded by TRUSTEE WENCZEL
to recess the hearing until next month. ALL AYES.
3. Suffolk Environmental Consulting on behalf of MARK MCDONA~
requests a Wetland Permit to construct a single-famil~ dwelling,
deck, pool, sanitary s~stem approx. 75' from edge of wetlands.
Located Private Road off Orchard Lane, Cedar Beach Park, Southotd.
SCTM9 89-3-11.3.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Is there anyone here who would like to speak on
behal~ of or against this application?
BRUCE ANDERSON.: Suffolk Environmental Consulting for the applicant,
McDonald. You went out to the site you stxouldhave seen th~ thefill
line was staked, the property boundaries were staked, the wetlands
were flagged, the proposed house and septic s~stem~were also staked.
It is a routine application. What we have done is that we have set
the house back 75'. It is a fairly restrictive lot. It is not a very
deep lot in teza~ of the amount of upland available. You ca~ see. b~
looking at the survey, approx, half the site is wetlands. It was
created as part of a subdivision. The only reason we are here is
because the fill crosses over that 75' setback line. The reason why
the fill is there is number one to elevate the house so that is
conforms with applicable flood plain regulation. Also more important
to this board is to elevate the septic system.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: I think the only condition that I would like to see,
is hay bales placed at the 7' contour and be left there. Have no
disturbance landward of it.
BRUCE ANDERSON: Also a silt fence back behind ~b~t.
Board of Trustees 4 October 23, 1996
'TRUSTEE HOLZAPFEL: I the survey it says a proposed 72' waterproof
concrete retaining wall. Is that 72' long and then it comes out
across in front? Or is the concrete wall on the side. On the survey.
BRUCE ANDERSON: Yes that is a concrete retaining wall. It has to be...
TRUSTEE HOLZAPFEL: I understand. Is it just running along the
property line?
BRUCE ANDERSON: It does but it bevels in towards the house.
TRUSTEE HOLZAPFEL: My real question is will you ever get permission
to but that on a property line?
BRUCE ANDERSON: Yes.
TRUSTEE HOLZAPFEL: There is no setback?
BRUCE ANDERSON: No because the only reason for the wall is because
you have to maintain a 20' slope from the outer ring to the property
boundary's. Because the system is mounded, you can't maintain that
slope. The remedy is to but a low profile concrete retaining wall to
contain that fill. The reason that it is concrete and water proof, is
that technical matter that involves a side leaching from the septic
ring. In truth it probably doesn't matter that is its water proof. It
is a requirement.
TRUSTEE HOLZAPFEL: They will allow you to put it on the property
line? That is my only question.
BRUCE ANDERSON: Yes.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: CAC coa~L~ents, recoL~nd approval. Any other comment?
I will take a motion to close the hearing.
TRUSTR~ HOLZAPFEL: Second. ALL AYES.
TRUSTEE HOLZAPFEL: I will make a motion that we approve the
application of Mark McDonald with the addition that a line hay bales
be placed a 7' contour line with a silt fence.
TRUSTEE KING: Second. ALL AYES.
4. En-Consultants, Inc. on behalf of WUNNEWETAPOND ASSOCIATION
requests a Wetland Peaa~t to replace within 18".. 56 1.f.,5 1.f., 177
t.f. and 25 1.f. of bulkheads. Add a new 10 1.f. return. Back~ill
with 65 c.y. clean san~ to be trucked in from an upland source.
Located Bridge Lane, Cutchogue. SCTM ~118-1-1t
TRUSTEE KRU~SKI: Is there anyone that would like to make a comment on
the application?
DIANNE LE VERRIER: From Eh-Consultants representing~Wunneweta Pond
Association. Basically the bulkhead is badly deteriorated and we will
replace in front of it. The area where they want to put in the return
is also badlyeroded. I have the DEC pe=~it.
TRUSTEE KRU~SKI: Any comment of the Board or questions o~ Dianne?
TRUSTEE WENCZEL: It looks pretty straight ~orw~rd.
CLERK: CAC rec~nds approval.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: I will make a motion to close the hearing.
TRUSTEE GARRELL: Second. ALL AYES.
TRUSTEE GARRELL: I will make a motion to approve.
TRUSTEE KING: Second. ALL AYES.
5. Eh-COnsultants, Inc. on behalf ofBRUNOCI~PITF~'.LI requests a
Wetland Pe~n~t to construct a timber dock consisting of a 4~ X 88'
fixed elevated walk, (4' above grade of marsh), a 3' X 14' hinged
ramp, and a 6' X 2~' float with 2 pile dolphins. Locate~ 220
Broadwaters Road, Cutchcque. SCTM ~104-i0-7
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Anyone here who would like to speak in.favor o~ or
against the application?
Board of Trustees 5 October 23, 1996
DIANNE LE VERRIER: En-Consultants representing Bruno Cippitelli. I
sent in the revised drawings a couple of weeks ago. The revised
drawings show the proposed dock in the middle of the property. I
spoke with Mr. Cippitelli and the contractor and they were both
amenable to moving it.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Thank you. Anyone else like to
JOE GOLD: Representing the the property owners to the east. The
matter of which we discussed at the last meeting has bccn resolved. I
would just like to make a c~,ent in general. This is just a little
corner of the creek there that have very narrow lots. I said at the
last meetiug that there is potential for 3 more docks there. There is
actually 4 more. It might be something to keep in. mind ~b~t locating
the dock in the center of the property is the least intrusive to the
adjacent property owners. There are going to be some .day 7 docks on
600' of water front there.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Thank you. You have seen the revised drawing then?
JOE GOLD: I haven't seen the drawing.
TRUSTEE GARRELL: Joe is there any hope of getting people together to
share a dock so you can have 3 docks instead of
JOE GOLD: I really can't speak for the people in that area. Within
the are that is live in, it is hard to get people toqether for
anything except putting out a fire.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Any other c~m~nt? Board
TRUSTEE WENCZEL: I think that one of the conditions of the dock
should be that the dock should be no longer than a line drawn between
the adjacent docks. If the 88' catwalk happens, to put it out beyond
that point, they would, be required to cut that back at the time of
construction. Also we den't want to see any more mowing o~ ~e
wetlands.
DIANNE LE VERRIER: We discussed that with them.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Good. Because next year it would be a violation.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Motion to close the hearing.
TRUSTEE HOLZAPFEL: Second. ALL AYES.
TRUSTEE WENCZEL: I will make a motion that we approve the applicat%n~
of Bruno Cippitelli for a wetland permit to include the stipulation
that under no condition shall the dock be any longer than a line
drawn between the two adjacent docks. We would expect it to be cut
back if that were the case.
TRUSTEE HOLZAPFEL: Second. ALL AYES.
6. Henry Raynor on behat~ of a Wetlan~
Permit to remov'e approx. 8.0' oE X 60' and 4' X 18'
docks and construct approx. 130' bulkhead withapprox. 15' return on
north side of property, also to construct a single family dwelling
with associated sanitary as per survey date~ Aug,mt 27, 1996. Located
890 Old Harbor Road, New Suffolk. SCTM $1t7-5-22.
Board to recess this hearing until the November 20thregutarmeeting.
Once the question o~ the location of the zoning line is answered, the
Board will proceed with its review.

Wetland Pezmit to construct a 2-story, 1-family dwelling, ~wi~ming

Board of Trustees 6 October 23, 1996
system, well, as per revised survey dated 4/17/96. Located: 385 North
Lane, East Marion. SCTM ~31-7-10.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Is there anyone here who would like to speak on
behalf of the applicant?
DIANNE LEVERRIER: Eh-Consultants representing Edwa~dThorp. Last
time I was here I had brought up that he had gotten some feed back
from the Department of Health with regard to an existing well. I got
some feed back from Ed Thorp. He told us that the proposed well on
the south side was from a previous subdivision and it was denied by
the Health Dept. They are not going to do snitching with that. It has
no effect on the current proposal.. It was just there on the survey.
The existing well has a question on. Basically it was a test well
that had been dug and they have the info£~uation and the Health Dept.
has everything on file.
TRUSTEE HOLZAPF~.T.: So the existing well isn't functional?
DIANNE LE VERRIER: It was done and tested by Kreiger Well. It is not
functional now.
TRUSTEE HOLZAPFEL: The reason I am saying is that now you can see the
septic system. It wasn't on l~t survey, I don't think.
DIANNELEVERRIER: Yes it was.
TRUSTEE HOLZAPFEL: It seems to be in the most undesirable place in
terms of protecting the water.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Is it out side of our jurisdiction based on your
inspection?
TRUSTEE HOLZAPFEL: It is right here. it is one of those things that
it is outside but it is close.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: The survey says 100'. What do you think it was?
TRUSTEE HOLZAPFEL: I suspect it is.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: So it is outside.
TRUSTEE HOLZAPFEL: Right. I had no problem looking at it. I just
thought there should be a ha~ bale line.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: The CAC recommends approval provid~dproper erosion
and sidement controls.
TRUSTEE HOLZAPFEL: There is a dramatic drop off into the lake.
DIANNE LEVEIRE: Those issues would be up to the ~ealth Depazh,~ent.
TRUSTEE HOLZAPFEL: Right. O.K.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Any other comment? Do I have a motion to close the
hearing?
TRUSTEE GARREIJ,: So moved.
TRUSTEE HOLZAPFEL: Second. ALL AYES.
TRUSTEE HOLZAPFEL: I will make a motion that we approve the
application of Edward Thorpwith the conditions that a row of hay
bales and silt fence be placed at the 75' set back or above the 15'
contour, whichever is easier to do, and that the case of a sw~u~Lng
pool that there be a dz-ywell for the back wash.
TRUSTEE GARR~T.T.: Second. ALL AYES.
The Board spoke with Ms. Anderson and will meet with her and her
contractor on field inspections. The Board will also try and get the
DEC there.
