Located: 20 Harbor River Rd., Orient. SCTM#24-1-11 The proposed action has been reviewed to Chapter 268, Waterfront Consistency Review of the Town of Southold Town Code and the Local Waterfront Revitalization Program (LWRP) Policy Standards. The proposed 44' of vinyl bulkhead is located in an inlet to Orient Harbor that contains an aquaculture operation. Based upon the information provided on the LWRP Consistency Assessment Form submitted to this department, as well as the records available to me, it is my recommendation that the proposed action is CONSISTENT with the following Policy Standards and therefore is CONSISTENT with the LWRP To further sub-policy 4.1; it is recommended that the Board consider the following: 4.1 Minimize losses of human life and structures from flooding and erosion hazards. The following management measures to minimize losses of human life and structures from flooding and erosion hazards are suggested: Use hard structural erosion protection measures for control of erosion only where.. Construction of a hard structure is the only practical design consideration and is essential to protecting the principal use. o The proposed hard structural erosion protection measures are: a. limited to the minimum scale necessary b. based on sound engineering practices Practical vegetative methods have been included in the project design and implementation. Adequate mitigation is provided and maintained to ensure that there is no adverse impact to adjacent property or to natural coastal processes and natural resources and, if undertaken by a private property owner, does not incur significant direct or indirect public costs. It is recommended that the following Best Management Practices are applied to further Policies 5 and 6: 1. Require that no CCA- treated lumber is used in the construction of the timber bulkhead, in order to protect the water quality of the aquaculture operation. 2. Establish a non-turf buffer at the maximum width practical is established landward of the new bulkhead. 3. Deploy a silt curtain, set in place to contain localized turbidity during construction, pursuant to 275-11 (2). Pursuant to Chapter 268, the Board of Trustees shall consider this recommendation in preparing its written determination regarding the consistency of the proposed action. Tow~ of South')Id A.
