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. The project activities shall be "concentrated" on a site where similar activities (single family dwelling) currently exist. The project does not involve agricultural land nor will open space be utilized or impacted. I believe that this project is consistent with this policy 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 believe that this project is consistent with this policy because the project shall not have any impacts upon the preservation and retention of historic resources, or any archeological resources nor the Coastal Culture of the Peconic Bays. The reason for this is that the project site has previously been "disturbed" and developed. The property itself was previously disturbed when the existing dwelling was constructed. Policy 3. I believe that this project is consistent with this policy 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 additions have been designed 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. 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. The project does not involve watershed development or the quantity or quality of potable water. The new proposed sanitary system shall be an upgrade to existing site conditions. 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 area of tidal wetlands by the destruction of habitat or significant impairment to the tolerance range of any species offish or wildlife. The project should have no impact upon any vulnerable fish, wildlife, plant species or rare ecological communities. The new proposed sanitary system shall be an upgrade to existing site conditions. 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 not involve the disposal of solid waste or debris 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. Nor will the project have impacts upon the public's fight of access along the shoreline Policy 10. I feel that the project is consistent with this policy. The project shall have no impacts upon any existing water-dependent commercial, industrial or recreational uses of the Peconic Bays. Nor is the project located on 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. ~,, /~, , , , , , ~I2A~)E EL ~'~;O.---IRON COVER ¢,IAm ',,~..,/ ,.. . ,- -.v-:,h,j~ ~, I~,~ . ~T* , PIPE, /8" PER FT J GRADE EL +E;.O' ~:~,~--CONCRETE COVER 12) J ~BOT.
