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 CONSISTENT with the Policy Standards and therefore is CONSISTENT with the LWRP provided that the following recommendations to further the below listed policies are implemented. Policy 6. Protect and restore the quafity and function of the Town of Southold ecosystem 6.3 Protect and restore tidal and freshwater wetlands. E. Maintain buffers to ensure that adverse effects of adjacent or nearby development are avoided: 1. Maintain buffers to achieve a high filtration efficiency of surface runoff. If the action is approved, it is recommended that a 10' landscaped buffer be required landward from the wooden bulkhead. LANDSCAPED BUFFER -~ A land area of a certain length and width which is planted with indigenous, drought-tolerant vegetation similar to that found within the immediate proximity of the parcel. Vegetation shall be installed in sufficient densities to achieve 95% ground cover within two years of installation. Survival of planted vegetation shall be 90% for a period of three years. Maintenance activities within the buffer are limited to removing vegetation which is hazardous to life and property, trimming tree limbs up to a height of 15 feet to maintain viewsheds, replanting of vegetation and establishing a four-foot-wide access path constructed of pervious material for access to the water body.
