Emery 5925 Nassau Point Road Cutchogue, NY 11935 (516)746-4038 Dear Ms. Emery: Due to the severe erosion that the bluff on your property suffered after Superstorm Sandy, I was required to rethink the entire project. I am enclosing an outline of what is proposed in order to save your bluff in the future from further erosion. As you know, Seacoast has already constructed the bulkhead at the shoreline and is in the process of replacing the failed retaining wall. This work is being performed under the permits received from the DEC and from the Southold Town Trustees. The work to be done, which will require permits, is as follows: 1. Construct an "Upper Retaining Wall" across the width of the bluff, 98' f in length with a 3'f return on each end to the property line. This retaining wall will be located approximately 3' to 4' below the crest of the existing bluff on the northerly side, and on the southerly side a 3' to 4' distance from the existing retaining wall. Construction will consist of 10" by 20' poles placed 6' on center. The sheathing will be Shoreguazd 425 Vinyl Series, 36" by 12'. Whalers will also be installed which will be 6' by 8' structural timber. Pile penetration will be 12' to 14't. 2. Construct a "Mid-Bluff Retaining Wall", which will be 98't in length with 3' f returns on each end to the property line. This Mid-Bluff Retaining Wall will be located approximately 20't seawazd of the upper retaining wall. Construction will consist of piles 8" by 20', installed 6' on center. The sheathing will be 3' by 10' structural wood. Whalers will be 6' by 8' structural wood. The pile penetration will be 14' to 16't. ~I ~ S 3. After the erection of the two retaining walls, approximately 600 cubic yazds of clean fill will be brought in landwazd via a conveyor belt on a Telebelt. The fill will be put in place landwazd of the bulkhead to the fast retaining wall to obtain a level azea between the bulkhead and the retaining wall; and then fill will be placed from the lower retaining wall to the mid-bluff retaining wall on an angle of approximately 60 ° . Fill will then be placed from the mid-bluff retaining wall to the upper retaining wall trying to maintain an angle not to exceed 60 ° . Finally, the clean fill will be tamped down. 4. After settlement of the fill has been achieved, stairs will be constructed starting from the bottom of the bluff. The stairs will be 4' wide and will consist of 3' by 12" stringers attached to 8" by 16' piles. The railings, supports and stair treads will be Timbertech. The depth of the piles along the stairway will be 10'f. 5. A 10' by 10' observation platform will then be constvcted adjacent to the stairs on the northerly side at the Mid-Bluff Retaining Wall, which will support the majority of its weight. The platform will be recessed back onto the hill with 8" by 20' piles. The pile penetration will be 14'f. 6. Hazdwaze: All fasteners to structural timbers and piles will be hot dipped galvanized. The fasteners for the decking and stair treads will be #10 x 2.5" stainless steel screws, which will be predrilled and countersunk. 7. Within six months of the completion of the above construction, there will be planted on the bluff area the retaining walls the following: American Beach Grass, Rugosa Rose ussian liv . Attached hereto aze constnzction plans for the above-mentioned work.
