Located: 2500 Park Ave., Matttiuck. SCTM#123-8-13 The ~)roposed 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 CONSISTENT with the following Policy Standards and therefore is CONSISTENT with the LWRP. This recommendation was based on the following. Policy Standards 4.1 Minimize losses of human life and structures from flooding and erosion hazards. The following management measures tc minimize losses of human life and structures from flooding and erosion hazards are suggested: Use hard structural erosion protection measures for control of erosion only where: Construction of a hard structure is the only practical desiqn consideration and is essential to protectinq the principal us~, The principal use is residential. The fetch and exposure of the location warrant the use of a hardened control structure to slow and trap the west-east migrating sand and re-nourish the beaches. The proposed hard structural erosion protection measures are: a. limited to the minimum scale necessary It is recommended to improve access along the foreshore, that design elements (lower top elevation, stairs) be considered to accomplish such. b. based on sound enqineerin.q practices Practical veqetative methods have been included in the proiect desiqn and implementation. Due to the elevation of the grade (beach) and tidal exposure, the use of vegetation within this area is not a practical erosion control method. Figure 1. Subject parcel. It is strongly recommended that the groin field be reviewed in its entirety and not as individual groins for a long-term solution to protecting the residential structures along this dynamic shoreline. Pursuant to Chapter 268, the Board of Trustees shall consider this recommendation in preparing its written determination regarding the consistency of the proposed action.

Box 1179 Southold, NY 11971 Re: Brenda Helies and Patricia Colagiuri~ 2500 Park Avenue, Mattituck Dear Ms. Standish: Attached please find an LWRP Consistency Assessment Form, which is being submitted together with an application to modify the captioned Wetlands Permit. I have indicated that ail policies are "Not Applicable" because pursuant to Town Code §268-5 ("Review of Actions") and the corresponding definitions of "action" and "minor action" by §286-3 ("Definitions"), the proposed in-place groin replacement meet the following definitions of minor actions and are thus not subject to waterfront consistency review pursuant to Chapter 268: "A. Maintenance or repair involving no substantial changes in an existing structure or facility;" and "B. Replacement, rehabilitation or reconstruction of a structure or facility, in kind, on the same site, including upgrading buildings to meet building or fire code, except for structures in areas designated by the Coastal Erosion Hazard Area (CEHA) where structures may not be replaced, rehabilitated, or reconstructed without a permit." ~ ~tfully yours, Robert E.
