Ham, Ill Matthews & Ham 38 Nugent St. Southampton, NY 11968 RE: FISHERS ISLAND FIRE DISTRICT EQUESTRIAN AVE., FISHERS ISLAND SCTM#9-2-4.1 Dear Mr. Ham: The Southold Town Board of Trustees conducted a site inspection on May 5, 2010 and reviewed the site plan prepared by Richard H. Stmuse dated December 9, 2009 and determined the proposed additions to the existing firehouse to be out of the Wetland jurisdiction under Chapter 275 of the Town Wetland Code and Chapter 111 of the Town Code. Therefore, in accordance with the current Wetlands Code (Chapter 275) and the Coastal Erosion Hazard Area (Chapter 111 ) no permit is required. Please be advised, however, that no construction, sedimentation, or disturbance of any kind may take place seaward of the tidal and/or freshwater wetlands jurisdictional boundary or seaward of the coastal erosion hazard area as indicated above, or within 100' landward from the top of the bluff and/or wetlands jurisdictional boundary, without further authorization from the Southold Town Board of Trustees pursuant to Chapter 275 and/or Chapter 111 of the Town Code. It is your responsibility to ensure that all necessary best management practices are taken to prevent any sedimentation or other alteration or disturbance to the ground surface or vegetation within Tidal Wetlands jurisdiction and Coastal Erosion Hazard Area, which may result from your project. This determination is not a determination from any other agency. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to call.

I have enclosed prints of a survey (Boundary and Topography as Sheet 1 and Proposed Addition as Sheet 2) prepared for Fishers Island Fire District by CME Associates Engineering, Landscaping & Architecture, PLLC under date of December 9, 2009. As you can see from the enclosed survey, while there are wetlands at the rear of the existing firehouse, the proposed construction is at the front of the property and more than 100 feet from those wetlands. I would appreciate it if you would visit the site when you go to Fishers Island next week and, if you can confirm that the project is indeed out of your jurisdiction, issue a letter of non-jurisdiction and mail the same to me. will provide specific evidence of my authority to act for the Fire District in due course if you need more than the copy of the enclosed letter of authorization addressed to the Zoning Board. In the meantime, please at least visit the site and make your determination. I have enclosed my firm's check to the Town of Southold for the $50 inspection fee. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Very truly yours, ,Stephen L. Ham, Enclosures FISHERS ISLAND FIRE DISTRICT P.O.
