Dear Ms. Weiss,
With regards to your letter dated September 17, 2012, the Board of Trustees reviewed
your request to collaborate with the members of the Harbor Lights Association in seeking
permission to plant native beach grass and other native vegetation on a recent dredge
spoil (15'x 50') site on the Harbor Lights Community Park beach.
It has been determined that this project does not require a permit. However, it is required
that you provide before and after photographs of the project site, and to submit them the
Southold Town Board of Trustees Office.
Any other activity within 100' of the wetland boundary requires a permit fi.om this office.
This is not a determination fi.om any other agency.

Sincerely,
James F. King

Dear President King and Southold Town Trustees,
Group for the East End in collaboration with members of the Harbor Lights Association
are seeking permission to plant native beach grass and vegetation on a recent dredge
spoil (15' x 50') site on the Harbor Lights Community Park beach. All plantings will be
native to the Long Island area including: beach grass, marsh elder, groundsel, bayberry,
and goldenrod.
In reviewing the Town Code Section, Chapter 275-4; Exceptions, it is my understanding
that a permit is not required for the proposed re-vegetation of this site. "Proactive
restoration or enhancement projects conducted in cooperation with the Trustees,
including, but not limited to, salt marsh restoration, eelgrass plantings or other
vegetative enhancement work." Please, let me know as soon as possible whether this
assumption is accurate, as preliminary planting dates have been set for October 20th or
November 3rd,
I apologize for the short notice. Please let me know if you have any questions. I can be
reached at (631) 765-6450 ext. 219 or at mweiss~eastendenvironn3.~n~,org. Thank you
for your attention to this matter.
