Located: 2790 New Suffolk Ave., Mattituck. SCTM#115-9-4 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 the following best management practice is required pursuant to: § 275-11. Construction and operation standards. A. General. The following standards are required for all 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 of a 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. Cc: Lori Hulse, Assistant Town Attorney Susan Norris Town of Southold LWRP CONSISTENCY ASSESSMENT FORM A. INSTRUCTIONS All applicants for permits* including Town of Southold agencies, shall complete this CCAF for proposed actions that are subject to the Town of Southold Waterfront Consistency Review Law. This assessment is intended to supplement other information used by a Town of Southold agency in making a determination of consistency. *Except minor exempt actions including Building Permits and other ministerial permits not located within the Coastal Erosion Hazard Area. Before answering the questions in Section C, the preparer of this form should review the exempt minor action list, policies and explanations of each policy contained in the Town of Southold Local Waterfront R~vitalization Program. A proposed action will be evaluated as to its significant beneficial and adverse effects upon the coastal area (which includes all of Southold Town). 3. If any question in Section C on this form is answered "yes", then the proposed action may affect the achievement of the LWRP policy standards and conditions contained in the consistency review law. Thus, the action should be analyzed in more detail and, if necessary, modified prior to making a determination that it is consistent to the maximum extent practicable with the LWRP policy standards and conditions. If an action cannot be certified as consistent with the~RP policy standards and conditions, it shall not be undertaken.

DEVELOPED COAST POL/CTES Policy I Foster a pattern of development in the Town of Southold that enhances community character, preserves open space, makes effident use of infrastructure, makes beneficial use of a coastal location, and minimizes adverse effects of development. This is a waterfront piece of property that is presently bulkheaded. Sections of this bulkhead have failed and needs to be reconstructed, There will be no increased development and our proposal is an effort to maintain existing s~ructures. Policy 2 Preserve historic resources of the Town of Southold. This property has no significant historic resources. Policy 3 Enhance visual quality and protect scenic resources throughout the Town of Southold. The bulkhead at this location is existing. Sections of this bulkhead have been damaged by Hurricane Irene and the current appearance is extreme undesirable. A new bulkhead is an attempt of the upland property owner to maintain her property. Once the bulkhead is reconstructed the visual quality and scenic resources will be the same as before. NATURAL COAST POLICIES Policy 4 Minimize loss of life, structures, and natural resources from flooding and erosion. The existing bulkhead is needed to protect the upland property. This shoreline is mostly reinforced with erosion control structures. The new bulkhead will not increase flooding or erosion in this area, Policy 5 Protect and improve water quality and supply in the Town of Southold. This proposal will not have any impact on the water quality and supply of the Town of Southold. Policy 6 Protect and restore the quality and function of the Town of Southold's ecosystem, This proposal will not have any impact on the Town of seuthold's ecosystem.

PUBliC COAST POL/CIES Policy 9 Provide for public access to, and recreational use of, coastal waters, public lands, and public resources of the Town of Southold. Our proposal will not limit public access to the coastal waters or public resources of the Town of Southold. There is a bulkhead presently existing and we are proposing for in-place construction. ~NORK~NG COAST Policy Z0 Protect the Town of Southold's water-dependent uses and promote siting of new water- dependent uses in suitable locations. Our proposal is to reconstruct failing sections of bulkhead. The present condition of the bulkhead is non-functional and is unsafe. The construction of a new bulkhead in its place will allow the property owners to safely approach this waterfront. NI stnJctures are in need of reconstruction to maintain the integrity of this property. Policy 11 Promote sustainable use of living marine resources in the Town of Southold. This proposal will have no impact on the marine resources in the Town of Southold. Policy 12 Protect agricultural lands in the Town of Southold.
