Located: 5386 Peconic Bay Blvd., Laurel. SCTM#1000-128-2- 13 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 LWRP review provided the following best management practices are required if the action is approved: To further Policy 5: Protect and Improve Water Quality in the Town of Southold and Po/icy 6; Protect and Restore the Quality and Function of the Town of Southo/d Ecosystem it is recommended that the Board require a silt boom during construction. § 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. In addition it is recommended that the Board require the establishment of a landscaped buffer on filled areas landward of the replaced bulkhead. A sample definition is provided below. 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. [Added 12-15-2009 by L.L. No. 15-2009] Pursuant to Chapter 268, the Board of Trustees shall consider this recommendation in preparing its written determination regarding the consistency of the proposed action.

NYSDEC~ USACE~ NYSD0$ September 16, 2011 APPLICANT: KEVIN LaTULIP SCTM #: 1000-128-2-13 LWRP CONSISTENCY ASSESSMENT FORM Policy 1 [] YES Foster a pattern of development in the Town of Southold that enhances com- munity character, preserves open space, makes efficient use of infrastructure, makes beneficial use of a coastal location, and minimizes adverse effects of development. ~NO [] NOT APPLICABLE The repair and strengthening of an existing bulkhead is not inconsistent with the character of the waterfront community, and because of the relatively small foot- print of the existing bulkhead it is felt that there is no adverse impact on the desired preservation of open space. Infrastructure use is not a factor since the project is ac- cessory to and accessed from private property. The maintenance of the erosion control purpose of the bulkhead is certainly a beneficial use of the coastal location, and there is no incremental increase in development in the area since the bulkhead already exists in the same form as it will have after completion of the project. Policy 2 [] YEs Preserve historic resources of the Town of Southold. ~NO [] NOT APPLICABLE There is no evidence to indicate that the immediate area of the project includes his- toric features, and it is to be expected that the mainly intertidal nature of the project area is unlikely to have been the site of recoverable artifacts of past civilizations. Policy 3 [] YEs Enhance visual quality and protect scenic resources throughout the Town of Southoid. ~O [] NOT APPLICABLE The bulkhead repair and strengthening will be done in such a manner that upon completion of the project the will be no apparent change in the project site, since the added construction components will be completely underground. The existing bulkhead, which will retain its current form, is compatible with other existing shoreline structures in the area, and will not adversely affect dynamic landscape elements (tidal fluctuations, seasonal vegetation changes; seasonal/diurnal changes in ambient light) which might contribute to ephemeral visual qualifies. Policy 4 [] YEs Minimize loss of life, structures, and natural resources from flooding and ero- ~O [] NOT APPLICABLE It is intuitively obvious that the likelihood of the activities proposed contributing to increased hazards which could result in the loss of life from flooding or erosion is probably non-existent. The proposed bulkhead repair and strengthening will have a significant positive effect on the protection of structures and natural resources from flooding and erosion in that the existing bulkhead, which currently provides those features, is tending toward failure and its repair is required in order that these protective features continue in effect. Policy 5 [] YES Protect and improve water quality and supply in the Town of Southold. ~4~O [] NOT APPLICABLE The project will not have any effect, either positive or negative, upon water quality and supply in the Town of Southold. Policy 6 Protect and restore the quality and function of the Town of Southold's ecosys- tem. [] YES ~NO [] NOT APPLICABLE The project presumably will extend the useful life of the existing bulkhead and hence delay the time when the bulkhead will either fall or must be replaced, and therefore delay the time at which either of those eventualities will generate some degree of impact upon the Town's ecosystem. In the meantime, the project of itself will have no direct effect upon the Town's ecosystem, however that may be de- fined. The project will have no adverse effect upon existing tidal patterns and there will be no degradation of water quality. All statutory and regulatory requirements, at all levels of government, will be strictly complied with. No dredging, excavating, or filling in wetlands is included in the project. Policy 7 [] oeCt and improve air quality in the Town of Southoid. [] NOT APPLICABLE Activities to accomplish the project will not result in significant amounts of new air pollution, nor will the existence of the repaired bulkhead upon completion of the project.. Policy 8 Minimize environmental degradation in the Town of Southold from solid waste and hazardous substances and wastes. [] YES [] NOTAPPLICA LE The project as proposed will not result in the generation of any additional solid waste. The handling and storage of petroleum products, if any, will be accom- plished through the use of approved containers and facilities, and approved meth- ods of handling and storage will be followed. Policy 9 [] Policy 10 [] Policy 11 Provide for public access to, and recreational use of, coastal waters, public lands, and public resources of the Town of Southold. [] NO ~OT APPLICABLE This policy is not applicable to the proposed project. Protect Southold's water-dependent uses and promote siting of new water- dependent ~ in suitable locations. [] NO [~ NOT APPLICABLE This policy is not applicable to the proposed project. Promote sustainable use of living marine resources in Long Island Sound, the Peconic Estuary and Town waters. [] YES [] NO ~OT APPLICABLE This policy is not applicable to the proposed project. Policy 12 Protect agricultural lands in the Town of Southold. [] YES [] NO ~NOT APPLICABLE This policy is not applicable to the proposed project. Policy 13 [] YES o mOte appropriate use and development of energy and mineral resources [] NOT APPLICABLE The planning and construction of the project is, and will be, such that energy effi- cient design criteria are applied throughout, based upon any local or State building codes, or upon practices generally recognized as desirable in this regard. As has been stated, any handling and storage of petroleum products will be accomplished through the use of containers, facilities and methods of handling and storage as approved for residential property use and generally accepted as safe. Site drainage and water control will be designed and accomplished in accordance with Town policies and requirements.
