AIYST)FC APPLICANT: EDWARDS AVENUE CORPORATION SCTM #: 1000-81-3-26.1 LWRP CONSISTENCY ASSESSMENT FORM Policy 1 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. ❑ YES R NO ❑ NOT APPLICABLE The construction of stairs to grade on the seaward side of an existing bluff is con- sistent with the character of the waterfront community. Because of the low profile and unobtrusive appearance of the proposed structure it is felt that there is no ad- verse impact on the desired preservation of open space. Infrastructure use is not a factor since the project is for the further appropriate development of an existing private location. The project is certainly a beneficial use of the coastal location, and there will not be even an incremental increase in development in the area. Policy 2 Preserve historic resources of the Town of Southold. ❑ YES VNO ❑ 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 because of the topography of the project area it is unlikely to have been to site of activities of past civilizations. Policy 3 Enhance visual quality and protect scenic resources throughout the Town of Southold. ❑YES R NO ❑ NOT APPLICABLE The proposed structure will be inconspicuous in its proposed location, and the ex- isting mature vegetation in the area contributes to its suitability in this location. The addition of stairs to access the near shore area will not be visually intrusive. It is compatible with other existing shoreline structures in the area,and will not ad- versely affect the dynamic landscape elements (tidal fluctuations, seasonal vegeta- tion changes)which might contribute to ephemeral visual qualities. Policy 4 Minimize loss of life,structures,and natural resources from flooding and ero- sion. ❑ YES [I NO ❑NOT APPLICABLE It is unlikely that the proposed stairs would contribute to increased hazards which could result in the losses listed.Natural protective features will not be adversely af- fected. Policy 5 Protect and improve water quality and supply in the Town of Southold. ❑ YES &a NO ❑NOT APPLICABLE The proposed addition of stairs to access the near shore area will not have any ef- fect upon water quality and supply. During construction liquid or solid wastes will not be discharged into the water or wetlands. Disturbance of the shoreline during construction will be minimal. Policy 6 Protect and restore the quality and fuuction of the Town of Southold's ecosys- tem. ❑ YES Q NO ❑ NOT APPLICABLE The project is located in or immediately adjacent to the Orient Harbor Significant Coastal Fish and Wildlife Habitat. However,the entire shoreline in the area of the proposed project(650' northwest and 550' southeast)is hardened either by bulk- heading or by a single rock revetment(-300' northwest), and the entire northeast- ern shore of Orient Harbor is developed. The main thrust of the NYSDOS narrative appears to be the protection of water quality in the area, and the proposed project will not have any lasting adverse impact on water quality in Orient Harbor. All statutory and regulatory requirements, at all levels of government, will be strictly complied with. The minimal amount of construction required at the low end will be conducted in such a way, with the advice and consent of the Southold Trustees, as to minimize any transitory impact upon the waters of Shelter Island Sound. Policy 7 Protect and improve air quality in the Town of Southold. ❑ YES &?NO ❑ NOT APPLICABLE The construction or future use of the project as proposed will not result in signifi- cant amounts of new air pollution. Policy 8 Minimize environmental degradation in the Town of Southold from solid waste and hazardous substances and wastes. ❑ YES R'NO ❑NOT APPLICABLE The project as proposed will not result in the generation of any additional solid waste. The handling and storage of petroleum products during construction will be accomplished through the use of approved containers and facilities, and methods of handling and storage in compliance with all applicable local, state and federal regulations will be followed. Policy 9 Provide for public access to,and recreational use of,coastal waters,public lands, and public resources of the Town of Southold. ❑ YES ❑ NO R NOT APPLICABLE This policy is not applicable to the proposed project. Policy 10 Protect Southold's water-dependent uses and promote siting of new water- dependent uses in suitable locations. ❑ YES ❑ NO [NOT APPLICABLE This policy is not applicable to the proposed project. Policy 11 Promote sustainable use of living marine resources in Long Island Sound, the Peconic Estuary and Town waters. ❑ YES ❑ NO Q NOT APPLICABLE This policy is not applicable to the proposed project. Policy 12 Protect agricultural lands in the Town of Southold. ❑ YES ❑ NO R(NOT APPLICABLE This policy is not applicable to the proposed project. Policy 13 Promote appropriate use and development of energy and mineral resources ❑YES VNO ❑ 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. • * la �r «` PHOTO A: Looking y r'" ESE.
