i
Negative Declaration Page Two April 8, 2013
The determination was based upon the following:
This lot line change will not have any undesirable impacts on the surrounding
neighborhood or adjacent properties as this lot line change is being done to minimize
development potential of the subject property, protects public access to the water and
will presence the water view-shed. Future development will be limited, and the view-
shed to the water will be preserved through the conservation easements placed over
key areas of the properties.
Therefore, the proposed application will have no bearing upon Article VI of the Suffolk
County Sanitary Code and will, therefore, conform to Article VI of the Suffolk County
Sanitary Code and will not be expected to adversely affect groundwater quality.
1. No substantial adverse change in existing air quality, ground or surface water quality
or quantity, traffic or noise levels, no substantial increase in solid waste production,
potential of erosion, flooding, leaching or drainage problems will occur as a result of
this action.

substantial interference with the movement of any resident or migratory fish or
wildlife species, no significant impacts on a significant habitat area, no substantial
adverse impacts on a threatened or endangered species of animal or plant or the

or goals as officially approved or adopted.
4. The proposed action will not significantly impair the character or quality of
important historical, archaeological, architectural, or aesthetic resources or of
existing community or neighborhood character.
5. No major change in the use of either the quantity or type of energy will occur.
Each existing improved lot will continue to have only one pre-existing single
family dwelling on each.
6. No creation of a hazard to human health will occur as a result of this lot line
change.
7. The proposed action will not cause a substantial change in the use, or intensity of
use, of land including agricultural, open space or recreational resources, or in its
capacity to support existing uses.
8. Based upon such, no significant adverse impacts to the environment are 'i
expected to occur should the project be implemented as planned.
