Construct 95' of rock revetment using 500-I000 lb. rock. Remove remains of existing displaced stairway to beach and construct new stairway in original location. Located: 50 Cleaves Point Rd., East Marion. SCTM#38-2-31 Tile proposed action has been reviewed to Chapter 268, Waterfront Consistency Review of tile Towu of Southold Town Code and tbe 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 us, it is our recommendation that the proposed action is CONSISTENT with the below LWRP policy standards and therefore is CONSISTENT with the LWRP. As the above photos indicate, the bank is subiect to active moderate to severe erosion of the property due to wave energy deflected from the series of bulkheads to the east of the property. The erosion has resulted in a 20' setback from the bank (beach) to an existing accessory structure which is seaward of the principal dwelling. Therefore, measures to mitigate the erosion are necessary in consideration of the following policies. Policy Standards 4.1 Minimize losses of human life and structures from flooding and erosion hazards. D. Use hard structural erosion protection measures.ibr control of erosion only ~+'here: 2. Vegetative approaches to controlling erosion are not effective. Site inspection indicates that erosion of the properly is moderate to severe and vegetative approaches would not work effectively without integration of minimal structure to stabilize the lower elevations of the eroded bank. 5. The proposed hard structural erosion protection measures are: a. limited to the minimmn scale necessary b. based on sound engineering practices 6. Practical vegetative methods have been included in the project design and implementation. If the action is approved the following best management practice (BMP) is recommended: 1) It is recommended thai a non-turf buffer (minimum 10 feet in width, comprising of native shrubs), be required landward of the rock revetment to provide further soil (bank) stabilization. The BMP recommended above will further advance policy standard 4.1 Minimize losses of human life and structures from flooding and erosion hazards. Pursuant to Chapter 268, the Board of Trustees shall consider this recommendation in preparing its written determination regarding the consistency of the proposed action. ~o~n of Southold LWRP CONSISTENCY ASSESS1VIENT FORM A.
