Wetland Permit for GEORGE BALDVCIN
S CTM#57-2 -21
GEORGE BALDWIN requests a Wetland Permit to install 8' of bulkhead on each landward end
of the existing bulkhead above AMHW. Placement of 24 lf. of gabion baskets landward of
AMHW to provide shoreline stabilization. Located: 1045 Island View Lane, Greenport.
S CTM#57 -2 -21
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. 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 INCONSISTENT with the LWRP policy standards and therefore is
INCONSISTENT with the LWRP.
The proposed action to install 8' of new bulkhead on each landward end of the existing
bulkhead is not in compliance with § 275-11 and therefore is inconsistent with LWRP sub-
policy 6.3
§ 275-11 Construction and operation standards
B. Shoreline structures. The following standards are required for all operations relating to
shoreline structures on residential properties.
Bulkheads, retaining walls, revetments and gabions.
Only in-place replacement of existing functional bulkheads (as defined in .~ 275-2) is
permitted.
6.3 Protect and restore tidal and freshwater wetlands.
A. 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
I. Comply with Trustee regulations and recommendations as set forth in Trustee permit
conditions.
The following best management practices (BMP's) are recommended:
Use vegetative non-structural measures to manage erosion such as Bio-Log
vegetative design.
Require the applicant to maximize a perpetual, non-turf buffer landward of the
existing bulkhead.
BMP #1 will further sub-policy 4.1 and 4.2 as outlined below.
The placement of 24 If. of gabion baskets landward of AMHW to provide shoreline
stabilization is inconsistent with LWRP policy standards. LWRP sub-policies 4.1 and 4.2
recommend the use of non-structural vegetative erosion control measures such as Bio-Log
technology in restoring the natural protective features of the shoreline.
4.1 Minimize losses of human life and structures from flooding and erosion hazards.
B. Use vegetative non-structural measures to manage flooding and erosion hazards.
1. Use vegetative non-structural measures which have a reasonable
probability of managingflooding and erosion, based on shoreline
characteristics including exposure, geometry, and sediment composition.
2~_Use vegetative measures to increase protective capabilities of natural
protective features. Discourage clearing of existing, particularly indigenous vegetation
during siting, design, construction and regrading phases of any
4.2 Protect and restore natural protective features.
B. Maximize the protective capabilities of natural protective features by:
1. avoiding alteration or interference with shorelines in a natural condition
2. enhancing existing natural protective features
3. restoring the condition of impaired natural protective features wherever
practical
4. using practical vegetative approaches to stabilize natural shoreline
features
C. Minimize interference with natural coastal processes by:
1. providing for natural supply and movement of unconsolidated materials
and for water and wind transport
BMP #2 will further sub-policy 6.3 D, E, and F as outlined below.
6.3 Protect and restore tidal and freshwater wetlands.
In addition to protecting and improving the Town's wetlands, adjacent lands that provide
buffers to wetlands must be maintained and enhanced, and where appropriate, reestablished.
These buffers are necessary to ensure the long term viability of the Town's wetlands. Where these
lands are in private ownership, educating residential owners as to the long-term benefits of
compatible land use and landscaping techniques will be essential to maintaining the ecological
health of wetland areas.
D. Provide adequate buffers between wetlands and adjacent or nearby uses and
activities in order to ensure protection of the wetland's character, quality, values, and functions.
The adequacy of the buffer depends on the following factor:
4. Buffer width necessary to achieve a high particulate filtration efficiency
of surface runoff as determined by vegetative cover type, soil characteristics, and slope of land.
E. Maintain buffers to ensure that adverse effects of adjacent or nearby
development are avoide&
1. Maintain buffers to achieve a high filtration efficiency of surface runoff
F. Restore tidal wetlands and freshwater wetlands, wherever practical, to foster
their continued existence as natural systems by:
4. protecting lands adjacent to wetlands from alterations so as to maximize
natural buffers to wetlands.
Pursuant to § 268-5 0t) Waterfront Consistency Review~ if the agency (Trustee's) makes a
contrary determination of consistency, the agency shall respond in writing,, describin~ the
manner and extent to which the action is consistent with the LWRP.
§ 268-5. Review of actions
H. In the event the L WRP Coordinator's recommendation is that the action is inconsistent
with the LWRP, and the agency makes a contrary determination of consistency, the agency shall
elaborate in writing the basis for its disagreement with the recommendation and state the manner
and extent to which the action is consistent with the L WRP policy standards.

INSTRUCTIONS
1.
All applicants for permits* including Town of Southold agenmes,
proposed actions that are subject to the Town of Southold Waterfront Consistency Review Law. This
assessment is intended to supplement other information used by a Town of Southold agency in
making a determination of consistency. *Except minor exempt actions including Building Permits
and other ministerial permits not located within the Coastal Erosion Hazard Area.
Before answering the questions in Section C, the preparer of this form should review the exempt
minor action list, policies and explanations of each policy contained in the Town of Southold Local
Waterfront Revitalization Program. A proposed action will be evaluated as to its significant
beneficial and adverse effects upon the coastal area (which includes all of Southold Town).
If any question in Section C on this form is answered "yes", then the proposed action may affect the
achievement of the LWRP policy standards and conditions contained in the consistency review law.
Thus, the action should be analyzed in more detail and, if necessary, modified prior to making a
determination that it is consistent to the maximum extent practicable with the LWRP policy
standards and conditions. If an action cannot be certified as consistent with the LWRP policy
standards and conditions, it shall not be undertaken.
A copy of the LWRP is available in the following places: online at the Town of Southold's
website (southoldtown.northfork.net), the Board of Trustees Office, the Planning Department, all
local libraries and the Town Clerk's office.
