Peter F, Cohalan Suffolk County ~:xecutive Veterans P-lemorial Highway Hauppauge, NY 11787 Subject: Failure of road surface on Nakomis Road, Laughing Mater, Southold at the point of intersection of drainage culvert of Corey Creek, Jear air, On 9/28/83 this Association called the Southold Highway ilepartment to report a dangerous condition to the above subject. At approximately 3:15 on the 28th it was noticed that a 12" deep, 2' diameter hole had appeared in the road surface. It was further noticed that the subsurface was washed out under the pavement extending in a southerly direction for about 3'(this in spite of a dry spell), This caas all that could be seen without ex- cavating the road. This Association(it consists of almost 80 families) has long been concerned with the condition of our only access road and its culvert(please see the enclosed s~etch and three exhibits) but has not been able to secure action from the County in properly repairing the situation. To the layman's mind this road failure and voiding under the surface seem to be caused by insufficient culvert size which allows for inadequate tidal flow witha+lft a hydrostatic head on alter- nating sides of the roadway, Also in evidence is the complete deter- ioration of the projecting culvert on both sides of the road. This has resulted in the sloughing off of the shoulder banks. It would appear that i£ a l.E' diameter culvert vsas installed a projected 3' oast the normal angle of repose of an adequate shoulder this unsafe condition would be eliminated. ^lhis condition is extremel hazardous to all motor traffic, from cars to school buses, as wel as pedestrians and bicyclists because there is in effect no shoulder at this point - only a sheer drop into the creek on either side. Phe failure of the roadway only worsens a treacherous situation, As the enclosed letters will show you, we have tried in the past to get this problem repaired but to no avail. ?.e urge you to take prompt action regarding this matter before some- one is seriously hurt.
