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.
In the event that the action is approved; to further Policies 5. Protect and improve water
quality in the Town of Southold, 6.3 Protect and restore tidal and freshwater wetlands
and Policy 11. Promote sustainable use of living marine resources in Long Island
Sound, the Peconic Estuary and Town waters. It is recommended that the Board
require that the silt boom be deployed during the construction of the structure
pursuant to:
§ 275-11 Construction and operation standards.
A. General The following standards are required for afl operations within the
jurisdiction of the Trustees:
(2) Erosion control. Installation of an erosion control structure is necessary
during any building, grading, landscaping or site work activity within Trustee
jurisdiction. This structure may include, but is not limited to, installation of a silt
fence, hay bales, wood chip berm and silt booms. The placement of the erosion
control structure(s) shall be determined by the Trustees or their designee. All
intertidal construction and excavation requires the installation ora silt boom that
will retain all suspended sediments within the immediate project area.
Pursuant to Chapter 268, the Board of Trustees shall consider this recommendation in
preparing its written determination regarding the consistency of the proposed action.

Re: New Suffolk Properties~ LLC~ 3350 West Creek Avenue~ Cutchogue
Dear Mr. Terry:
Attached please find an LWRP Consistency Assessment Form which is being submitted in
association with an application to the Board of Trustees for a Town Wetlands Permit to replace
and extend an existing timber bulkhead with a vinyl bulkhead, as depicted on the project plan
prepared by En-Consultants, Inc., dated April 26, 2010.
I have indicated that all 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 project meets one or more of the following definitions of minor
action and is thus not subject to waterfront consistency review pursuant to Chapter 268:
1. "A. Maintenance or repair involving no substantial changes in an existing structure or
facility;"
2. "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."
3. "GG. Bulkhead to replace existing bulkhead on the applicant's property in the same
location with a silt curtain employed during construction."
Respe! hlly yours,
Rober ~. Herrmann
