Proposed Permit to Wetland Permit for Jill and Carol Ridini
SCTM# 1000-110-%4
JILL & CAROL RIDINI requests a Wetland Permit to construct a 10'X 10.25' extension to the
existing wooden deck. Construct 3'X 104' fixed dock with cross over stairway to beach. Install
2-10" dia. mooring pilings. Remove existing wing retaining wall. Construct I 16'+/- of new 5'
high retaining wall. Backfill area behind retaining wall with clean tracked in soil, approx. 50 cy.,
and re-vegetate with Cape American Beach grass planted 12" on center. Repair existing stairway
up bank as needed in-place. Install concrete catch basin at top of bank on southwest comer of
property. Located: 805 West Rd., Cutchogue. SCTM#110-7-4.
The proposed actions have been reviewed to Chapter 268, Waterfront Consistency Review of the
Town of Southold Town Code and the Local Waterfront Revitalization Program (LWRP) Policy
Standards. 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 actions are INCONSISTENT with the below Policy Standards and
therefore are INCONSISTENT with the LWRP.
1. Construct a 10'X 10.25' extension to the existing wooden deck.
2. Remove existing wing retaining wall. Construct 116'+/- of new 5' high retaining
wall.
3. Install concrete catch basin at top of bank on southwest corner of property.
The proposed above actions are inconsistent pursuant to the following policy:
Policy 6. Protect and restore the quality and function of the Town of Southold ecosystem
6.3 Protect and restore tidal and freshwater wetlands.
Comply with statutory and regulatory requirements of the $outhold Town Board of
Trustees laws and regulations for all Andros Patent and other lands under their
jurisdiction
Comply with Trustee regulations and recommendations as set forth in
Trustee permit conditions.
The proposed setback distance from the proposed wooden deck to the existing bulkhead is
0 feet, the proposed new retaining wall to the existing bulkhead is 12 feet and the proposed
catch basin is (undetermined) feet from the bulkhead~ a minimum setback distance of 100
feet is required pursuant to Chapter § 275-3. Findings; purposel iurisdiction~ setbacks.
Please require that the applicant amend the application to meet the above policy to the
greatest extent practical.
The proposed 3'X 104' dock is inconsistent with the LWRP subiect to the below policies.
THE PROPOSED DOCK IS LOCATED IN CUTCHOGUE HARBOR WHICH IS A NEW
YORK STATE DESIGNATED SIGNIFICANT FISH AND WILDLIFE HABITAT AREA.
Policy Standard
1. Foster a pattern of development in the Town of Southold that enhances community character,
preserves open space, makes efficient use of infrastructure, makes beneficial use of a coastal
location, and minimizes adverse effects of development.
The proposed action is for private (recreational) use and will not support a pattern of
development that enhances community character nor preserves "public" open space.
Additionally, the applicant does not propose sufficient mitigative design and construction
best management practices that will minimize the adverse effects of the action on the
environment, scenic view shed or the use of public waters/lands to the greatest extent
possible.
5. Protect and improve water quality and supply in the Town of Southold.
The materials proposed to construct the dock have not been specified
The use of the dock must be identified. The installation of the proposed dock may promote
boat traffic in areas of shallow water depths which could lead to the followinK negative
impacts:
Impacts to submerged aquatic vegetation~
Contamination from fuel discharges (if power vessels are proposed)
Re-suspension of bottom sediments and turbidity
Bottom scarring from vessels accessing the dock structure to the west is evident (see below
photo).
6.1 Protect and restore ecological quality throughout the Town of Southold.
Avoid adverse changes to the Long Island Sound and the Peconic Bay ecosystems
that would result from impairment of ecological quality as indicated by:
1. Physical loss of ecological components
Physical loss is often the most obvious natural resource impairment to
identify. It usually results from discrete actions, such as filling or
excavating a wetland or clearing an upland forest community prior to
development.
The dock structure will result in the physical loss of marine habitat. Physical
impacts will include but not be limited to; chronic shading of the substrate where
the dock is located.
Protect and restore ecological quality by adhering to the following measures.
1. Maintain values associated with natural ecological communities.
Each natural ecological community has associated values which contribute
to the ecological quality of the Town of Southold. These values should be
assessed on a case-by-case basis.
2. Retain and add indigenous plants to maintain and restore values of natural
ecological communities.
a. Protect existing indigenous plants from loss or disturbance to the
extent practical.
3. Avoid fragmentation of ecological communities and maintain corridors to
facilitate the free exchange of biological resources within and
among communities.
a. Each individual resource area should be maintained as complete
contiguous areas to protect the area's natural resource values.
Specifically, actions that would fragment the ecological
community into separate ecological islands should be avoided.
b. Where fragmentation of ecological communities has already
occurred, the adverse effects of fragmentation can be mitigated by
maintaining or providing connecting corridors to allow exchange
of biological resources.
4. Maintain ecological integrity of particular locales by maintaining
structural and functional attributes, including normal variability, to
provide for self-sustaining systems.
5. Avoid permanent adverse change to ecological processes.
The proposed action would result in a physical loss of ecological components as
indicated above.
6. 3 Protect and restore tidal and freshwater wetlands.
The proposed action does not comply with § 275-11. Construction and operation standards.
Comply with statutory and regulatory requirements of the Southold Town Board of
Trustees laws and regulations for all Andros Patent and other lands under their
jurisdiction
1. Comply with Trustee regulations and recommendations as set forth in
Trustee permit conditions.
The applicant has not demonstrated that the following dock standards pursuant to §
275-11. Construction and operation standards have been met
(d) Review and approval of dock applications. Before issuing a permit for a dock
structure, the Trustees shall consider whether the dock will have any of the following
harmful effects:
[1] Whether the dock will impair navigation or be located in areas of high vessel
traffic or vessel congestion;
[2] Whether the dock will unduly interfere with the public use of waterways for
swimming, boating, fishing, shell fishing, waterskiing and other water-dependant
activities;
[3] Whether the dock will unduly interfere with transit by the public along the public
beaches or foreshore;
[4] Whether the dock will significantly impair the use or value of waterfront property
adjacent to or near the dock;
[5] Whether the dock will cause degradation of surface water quality and natural
resources;
[6] Whether the dock will cause habitat fragmentation and loss of significant coastal
fish and wildlife habitats;
[7] Whether the dock will result in the destruction of or prevent the growth of
vegetated wetlands, sea grasses including eelgrass (Zostera marina) and widgeon grass
(Ruppia maritima) or shellfish;
[8] Whether the dock will unduly restrict tidal flow or water cimulation;
[9] Whether the dock will be safe when constructed;
[10] Whether the dock will adversely affect views, viewsheds and vistas important to
the community;
[ 11] Whether the cumulative impacts of a residential and commemial dock will change
the waterway or the environment and whether alternate design, construction, and location
of the dock will minimize cumulative impacts; and
[12] Whether adequate facilities are available to boat owners and/or operators for
fueling, discharge of waste and rubbish, electrical service and water service.

Ensure that interference with passage along the shoreline is limited to the
minimum extent necessary to gain access from the upland to the water.
Provide access to, and reasonable recreational use of navigable waters and
public trust lands under water.
1. Provide for free and unobstructed public use of all navigable waters below
the line of mean high water for navigation, recreation, and other public
trust purposes, including the incidental rights of public anchoring.
The proposed action has not demonstrated that it meets or furthers the above sub-
policy.
Structures extending beyond the minimum necessary for access to
navigable waters impair public trust interests and open space values
associated with the water's surface. Allow such structures only in the
following circumstances:
a. when necessary for practical and convenient operation of water-
dependent industry or commerce, and provided that obstruction of
commercial navigation does not result.
b. for commercial recreational boating facilities provided that:
(i) the loss of navigable waters and use of underwater lands is
offset by sufficient public benefit, and
(ii) obstruction of commercial navigation does not result.
c. when the principal purpose of the structure is necessary:
(i) to provide public access for recreational uses
(ii) for improvements for navigation
(iii) for protection from coastal hazards, or
(iv) for essential public transportation and transmission
facilities.
Protect and maintain existing public access and water-related recreation facilities.
1. Prevent physical deterioration of facilities due to lack of maintenance or
overuse.
2. Prevent any on-site or adjacent development project or activity from
directly or indirectly impairing physical public access and recreation or
adversely affecting its quality.
3. Protect and maintain established access and recreation facilities.
4. Protect and maintain the infrastructure supporting public access and
recreational facilities.

proposed action.
9.5 Provide access and recreation that is compatible with natural resource values.
Provide appropriate access and associated recreational activity that will avoid
potential adverse impacts on natwxd resources. Use tile following factors in
determining the potential for adverse environmental effects:
1. intensity of the associated recreational, scientific, or educational activity,
2. level of likely disturbance associated with the proposed activity, The
following types of access or associated activities are listed in decreasing
order of potential for disturbance:
a. motorized activities,
b. active, non-motorized activities, including water-dependent and
water-related uses~
c. passive activities,
d. avoidance of the area.
3. Sensitivity of the natural resources involved and the extent of the
ecological benefits associated with avoidance of the area.
Limit public access and recreational activities where uncontrolled public use
would lead to impairment of natural resources.
1. Establish appropriate seasonal limitations on access and recreation in
order to minimize adverse impacts on fish and wildlife species.
2. Provide stewardship that is capable of controlling anticipated adverse
impacts before providing public access.
Physically limit or avoid provision of public access to natural resource
areas whose principal values are based on the lack of human disturbance.
Provide access using methods and structures that maintain and protect open
space areas associated with natural resources. Determine the extent of visual
and physical impairment by structures extending through these open space areas
based on:
1. the value of the open space as indicated by un-fragmented size or mass of
the wetland or other natural resources, distance to navigable water, and
wetland value.
2. the size, length, and design of proposed structures

DEVELOPED COAST POL/CZES
Policy 1 Foster a pattern of development in the Town of Southold that enhances community
character, preserves open space, makes efficient uso of infrastructure, makes beneficial
uso of a coastal location, and minimizes adverse effects of development.
The dock will be used by the property owners and their families to engage in water dependent
activities such as fishing, swimming and boating. The size of the dock is very modest in size and the
retaining wall will help the homeowners use this area of their property more efficiently.
Policy 2
Presorve historic resources of the Town of Southold.
This property has no significant historic resources.
Policy 3
Enhance visual quality and protect scenic resources throughout the Town of Southold.
The project location is in Cutchogue Harbor which has been developed similar to our request. The
retaining wall should have no effect on the visual quality and the proposed dock is consistent with the
area, It will not look out of place or contradict the present aesthetics of the area,
NATURAL COAST poi TCTES
Policy 4 Minimize loss of lifo, structures, and natural resources from flooding and erosion.
This shoreline is mostly reinforced with erosion control structures. The new retaining will not
increase flooding or erosion in this area. The proposed dock will not have any ill effects on life,
structures or natural resources.
Policy 5
Protect and improve water quality and supply in the Town of Southold.
This proposal will not have any impact on the water quality and supply of the Town of Southold.
Policy 6
Protect and restore the quality and function of the Town of Southold's ecosystem.
This proposal will not have any impact on the Town of Southold's ecosystem. The retaining wall is
landward of the high water mark. The proposed dock will have minor effect during the initial
construction and pile driving. This area will re-establish itself within a season and create a protected
habitat.
Policy 7

public resources of the Town of Southold.
Our proposal will not limit public access to the coastal waters or public resources of the Town of
Southold. The retaining wall is landward of the high water mark and there are access stairs enabling
pedestrians to walk over the dock.
WORKING COAST POLZCIES
Policy 10 Protect the Town of Southold's water-dependent uses and promote siting of new water-
dependent uses in suitable locations.
The only appropriate place for a dock is off a waterfront piece of property. The proposed dock will
be used by the property owners and their families to access the water and engage in water-
dependent activities such as boating, fishing, and swimming.
Policy 11
Promote sustainable use of living marine resources in the Town of Southold.
This proposal will have no impact on the marine resources in the Town of Southold. There are no
vegetative wetlands in this area. Initially driving the piling into the ground will stir the area but in a
minor degree. The area will quickly settle and the area will re-establish itself.
Policy 12
