The only difference about this is that the actual location of the catwalk is not where it is indicated on the drawing. It's actually more to the ...... actually a little right of center of the lot, and I believe the owner also agreed with us that the float, rather than being perpendicular to the shoreline, which would probably be a navigational hazard, should be parallel to the shoreline, brought back in as close to the shore, similiar to his neighbors (Mr. Occhiogrosso); There was no objection to the rails, on the ramp catwalk, as this was probably for safety reasons.

Vote of Board: Ayes: All Trustee Smith asked if anyone ha~ anything To say for the good ~r the bad of The TrUstees? Mrs. Ruth Olive: Yes! I jus~ wondered if you gentlemen had seen in the public notices from the Town Board, I think there is one that the Trustees would be interested in. I'll read it to you. Notice of Complete Application-by Bayview Ventures, Inc. to discharge waste water from a wa~er supply treatment plant to the easterly arm of Deep Hole Creek. The proposed discharge is located within an area designated as a sole source aquifer. Contact person: Mr~ Robert N. Thurber, NYSDEC, Bldg. 40, SUNY--Room 219, Stony Brook, written commen~s by June 22, 1984. The Town Board has entrusted Councilman Paul Stoutenburgh, who is giving it vo Dave Emilita to review. So perhaps you can get in touch with him and see what his opinion is on it. If you are going to have a treatment planT. Trustee Smith: What was that treatmen~ for? Ruth Olive: The Bayview Ventures is a sub-division. They have basically'the same problems with the water as they did up here in Orient-the Approved Settlers- except they didm't make the five acres or better. They have to put in a separate water treatment plant and they are going to have to also put in some central sewerage system, probably because of the depth of the ground water. So then they want to buiId this and then discharge this waste water into the creek. 1. That creek ~±sfn~!:~b±g, so it will certainly change the composition of what's ever in there. Plus if you do that you aren't recharging your own ground water. How long are they going to Board of Town Trustees -6- May 24, 1984 keep pumping bef.ore they are going to.be pulling in salt. Trustee Smith: Not only that but they are going to change the salinity o£ the creek. Ruth Oliva: This application to the DEC is just for the discharge of the State Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (SPDES) Permit. Trustee Kujawski: How is this discharge going to be accomplished without a Wetland Permit? Trustee Smith: Or a Trustee~Permit? Ruth Oliva: I just thought I should bring it to your attention. The Trustees were quite concerned with this. They have many questions concerning the changing of salinity and the construction of discharge pipes. A letter will be forwarded to Mr. Thurber with comments regarding same. The Trustees reviewed the correspondence from Mr. Tuthill and Mr. Geideman in regard to the bulkhead that was constructed ~or Mr. Israel in Gull Pond. Trustee Smith stated that he was there looking at the bulkhead, I don't think it was exceptionally high tide, but water was up against that bulkhead. Trustee Smith stated that the building inspector should be notified and the Bay Constable for this violation. Trustees felt this was certainly on the Town bottom. A letter was received from John and Linda Kowalski reflecting the change in location, for the nature walk at Ole Jule Lane, Mattituck, in James Creek. A copy of same has been placed in the file.

Board of Town Trustees -7- May 24, 1984 The Trustees received a letter from the Southold Town Baymen's Association, Inc. with three selected creeks for the clam planting program. They also requested that the creeks be closed for thirty (30) days following the plantings, to allow the clams ~o depurate. The Creeks were: Arshamomaque Pond, Hallocks Bay and West Creek, in addition the trustees also closed Goose Creek. The creeks were closed from May 3, 1984 thru June 2, 1984, for the purpose of planting the clams. A letter is to be sent To the Superintendent of Highways~ Raymond C. Dean in reference to the road run off problem at Pequash and Stillwater Avenue in Cutchogue. The Trustees are going to request some time to get together with this department to discuss the road run off problems at Pequash Ave. and one on Marratooka Rd. Mr. Dempsy has a problem with the road run off which needs immediate attention. On motion made by Trustee Kujawski seconded by Trustee Bednoski it was RESOLVED to amend the permit for Kenneth W. Akeson ~o install a ramp 3' x 8' leading to the float, in Kimogenor Point near Jackson Avenue, New Suffolk. Vote of Board~ Ayes: All A letter will be sent to Supervisor Francis J.
