Environmental Consulting Services Applicant: Fishers Island Utility Company Location: Private road off of The Gloaming, Fishers Island S.C.T.M.No. 1000-010-9-13 The project consists of the applicant's request to remove approximately 82' of dilapidated timber bulkhead and place 1-2 ton boulders along the shoreline, to remove an existing dilapidated dock and to construct a 4' x 90' fixed dock, 4' x 15' ramp and an 8' x 20 float to be secured by three piles. The project site is at West Harbor. As part of my review of the Town's LWRP Consistency Form Section C, I offer the following comments regarding the Local Waterfront Revitalization Policies and this proposed project: Policy 1. I do not feel that this policy is applicable to this project because the project will not result in a negative impact upon the desired development pattern of the Town of Southold nor shall it result in the loss of the community and landscape pattern of the Town of Southold. Policy 2. I do not feel that the project as proposed shall have any impacts upon the preservation and retention of historic resources, or any archeological resources nor the Coastal Culture of the Long Island Sound. The reason for this is that the project site has previously been "disturbed" and developed. The property itself was previously disturbed when the existing shed, driveway, dock and bulkheading were constructed . Policy 3. I do not feel that this policy is applicable to the project since the project will not have an impact on any scenic resource of the Town of Southold. Policy 4. I feel that the project is consistent with this policy for a number of reasons. The proposed dock reconstruction and shoreline stabilization Phone (631) 653-0607. Fax (631) 653-3348 121 Jessup Ave · 2nd Floor · P.o. Box 447 Quogue, New Vorl< 11959-0447 P.7 APR-19-2006 16:32 FROM:JMO CONSULTING . . 6533348 TO: 7656641 project has been based upon sound engineering practices and designed to the minimum scale necessary. The project shall have no adverse impacts upon adjacent properties or to natural coastal processes or natural resources. The project shall have no impact on any natural protective features nor shall it have any impacts upon public lands or lands in public trust. Lastly, the project does not involve the management of a navigational infrastructure nor are public funds involved with the project. Policy 5. I feel that the proposed project is consistent with this policy for a number of reasons. The project does not involve any direct or indirect discharges that would cause any negative impacts upon water quality standards. The project, which involves the removal of a failing timber bulkhead and the installation of the proposed boulders for shoreline stabilization will cause a one-time short-term increase in turbidity during construction activities. There shall be no increase or decrease in the pH, the dissolved oxygen or nutrients in the waterway and there should be no increase in noxious odors at the project site. There shall be no increase in negative health impacts such as pathogens, chemical contaminants or toxicity nor shall there be any negative aesthetic factors involved with the project. As previously noted during the construction activities involved with the project there shall be a short-term one-time increase in the turbidity of the waterway. This will involve a short-term discoloration of the waterway until the suspended solids sink to the bottom. The project does not involve watershed development or the quantity or quality of potable water. Policy 6. I feel that the project is consistent with this policy. The project as proposed shall have no impact upon the ecological quality in the Town of Southold. There shall be no negative impacts upon the adjacent West Harbor by the destruction of habitat or significant impairment to the tolerance range of any species of fish or wildlife. The project has also been designed to meet with of the regulatory requirements of the Board of Town Trustees of the Town of Southold, the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, the New York State Department of State Coastal Management Program and the Army Corps of Engineers and to not have any impact on existing wetlands. The project should have no impact whatsoever upon any vulnerable fish, wildlife, plant species or rare ecological communities. P.8 APR-19-2006 16:32 FROM:JMO CONSULTING 6533348 TO: 7656641 Policy 7. I do not feel that this policy is applicable to this project since the project does not involve any atmospheric deposition of pollutants. Policy 8. I believe that the project is consistent with this policy. The project shall involve the disposal of solid waste, the old bulkheading, which shall be removed from the project site as part of the project There are no hazardous waste or toxic pollutants involved with the project. Policy 9. I do not feel that this policy is applicable to this project. The proposed project shall have no impact upon adequate physical public access to coastal resources, shall not impact any public visual access to any lands or waters, involve the public interest in and use of lands and waters held in public trust or to public access of such areas. Policy 10. I feel that the project is consistent with this policy. The project shall have no impacts upon any existing water-dependent uses of the site nor is the project located on Mattituck Creek/Inlet, Mill Creek or within the Village of Greenport and does not involve water-dependent uses at those sites. Policy 11. I feel that the project is consistent with this policy. The project does not involve aquaculture or the removal of shellfish from uncertified waters of the Town of Southold nor shall it have a negative impact upon the long-term maintenance and health of living resources. Policy 12. I do not feel that this policy is applicable to the project because no agricultural lands are involved. Policy 13. I do not feel that this policy is applicable to the project since the project does not involve energy or mineral resources. P.9 , Y'lE:ST HAfiC.SO LOCATION WAP SCALE: 1"=400' II i tmES 1.)
