RE: Noise Barriers
D&B No. 1314
Please find attached a su-nmary of the information obtained on noise barriers for the
southwestern portion of the landfill. Also attached are illustrations of various types of noise
barriers.
Several vendors were contacted and information from each of these vendors on the types of noise
barriers available is attached, The total length of the noise barrier will be approximately 400 feet.
The minirnurn height of the barrier as recommended by the vendors is 12 feet. This would result
in 4,800 square feet of noise barrier. As shown on the attached table, the average cost of the
galvanized steel noise barriers is approximately $10/sq.& without installation, and the average
cost of the concrete noise barriers is approximately $15/sq.ft. without installation This would
equate to a cost of approximately $48,000 (galvanized steel) to $72,000 (concrete) without
installation. The cost for installation of the galvanized steel fencing is estimated to be about
$5/sq. ft.,and the cost for installation of the concrete walls is estimated to be approximately $10-
$15/sq, ft.

Brian M.Veith,P.E. Dear Mr. Bunchuck:
Associates As you are aware, at the direction of the Town, we have designed a drainage
Garrett M.Byrnes,RE system to convey storm water from the southeastern area of the landfill to the
Rudolph F.Cannavale northeastern recharge basin (Recharge Basin No. 3). This redirection of storm
Joseph A.Fioraliso,P.E. water has necessitated other changes including the following:
David S.Glass,P.E.
Gerald Gould,CPG 1. Preparation of a fill and grading plan to fill the southeastern recharge
William D.Merklin,P.E.
basin(Recharge Basin No. 4);
Michael Neuberger,P.E.
Richard P.Russell,P.E.
Charles J.Wachsmuth,P.E. 2. Preparation of a revised surface drainage system to convey storm
Kenneth P.Wenz,Jr.,CPG water in the eastern area of the collection center to the new drainage
system along the eastern boundary of the landfill; and
3. Preparation of a revised design for Recharge Basin No. 3 to
accommodate storm water from the southeastern area of the landfill
and as a result of the Town's decision not to regrade the Borrow Pit.
As part of the redesign, a geotechnical analysis was performed to
evaluate stability of the recharge basin side slopes. This redesign
required the approval of the NYSDEC.

In addition, as a result of the need to accommodate C&D material accepted by the Town after the
commencement of closure construction, excess yard waste and other waste, such as concrete
rubble excavated during construction of the eastern drainage system, a revised grading plan was
prepared for the eastern portion of the landfill to place this material under the cap. This also
required NYSDEC's approval.

Dear Mr. Bunchuck:
Provided below is a description of the scope of work and cost to design a 10-inch diameter well
with a capacity of 500 gallons per minute to meet the requirements of the Cutchogue Fire
Department. The well will be driven by a 3-phase, 240 volt, 60 hz submersible motor normally
operated by LIPA power and be capable of accepting emergency power from a portable electric
generator furnished by the Fire Department.
The scope of work includes the following:
• Determine/redesign depth of the well, well diameter and screen length to provide
increased well capacity from 350 to 500 gpm.
• Prepare detail drawings of the well, well head piping and fire hose connections,
electric controls, manual transfer switch and prefabricated enclosure.
• Prepare a site drawing showing the location of well and enclosure.
• Prepare drawings for the electric service to the well pump and wiring diagram for
controls and transfer switch.
• Review shop drawings for conformance to the specifications.

FROM: Jim Bunchuck
SUBJECT: Sound Barrier Wall at LF
Barbara Taylor stopped by today and I gave her a copy of the picture of the wall design we're
looking at. She seemed to like it and brought it over to Robert,who returned it later.
Attached is the color photo for you to show to the Board. Attached also is the site plan for the
new transfer station showing the location of the wall.
The additional square-footage for the returns on either end of the wall adds $6,000 to the cost,
making the total $66,000, including installation. HOWEVER, I still need to speak with the
manufacturer to determine if the returns require any special installation or design features. They
have not returned my calls as yet.
I hope this info helps.
Please let me know if you have any more questions.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Town Board Members
FROM: Jim Bunchuck
SUBJECT: Sound Barrier Wall
The following proposal is presented pursuant to the Board's interest in constructing a sound-
absorbing wall between the transfer station building and adjacent residences.
ISSUE:
Change order to Landfill Cap Construction project to include construction of a sound-absorbing wall
along southern boundary between transfer station and private homes. Wall would be alternative to
planned installation of 12' foot high chain link fence in same area. Cost for wall would come from
postponing installation of permanent fencing along east side of landfill property,however
TEMPORARY CONSTRUCTION FENCING WOULD BE INSTALLED.
DESCRIPTION:
• Length of wall: 200'
• Height: 12'
• Material: Concrete
• Cost: @ $60,000
WORK:
The wall could be constructed by Terry Contracting through a change order to the landfill job.
Estimated construction time is 2 weeks.
TOWN BOARD ACTION REQUIRED:
Authorization of a change-order to the Landfill Cap Construction contract.
OTHER:
The Town has already purchased and is in possession of the permanent fencing for the east side of the
landfill. Installation would be postponed until next year. Cost to install would be budgeted for 2004.
April 16, 2003
MEMORANDUM
TO: Supervisor Horton
FROM: Jim Bunchuck
SUBJECT: Enhanced Plantings, Sound Barrier Wall at LF
As per your direction, I have instructed Terry Contracting to proceed with plans to install
enhanced plantings around the Church Lane Community adjacent to the landfill and compost
site, as well as around most of the compost site itself. The enhanced planting regime replaces
many of the red cedars and white pines that made up the original proposal with Western
arborvitae, dogwoods, holly, and Mr. Peabody trees. The result will be more thorough screening
of the compost site, and a more"professionally landscaped" look around the homes and southern
end of the property.
The total cost for the plantings will be approximately$110,000. As most of the plantings are
associated with the compost site, the majority of this cost must be charged to the compost
project, which has a budget for such items of $46,000. If the compost bond is insufficient to
cover the additional cost, the Board will need either to 1)increase the bond or 2) authorize
payment for the work from the SWI) operating budget. If operating funds are used,however, the
work technically becomes a separate project which could require going to public bid. Work on
digging the roughly 540 trees required for the job has begun with deliveries scheduled to start on
Tuesday the 22na
Also, as you requested, I met with the Taylors regarding plans for new fencing between their
house and the transfer station/recycling center. Fencing there was planned as part of the capping
project. There was discussion of using 12' high chain link to help catch blowing papers vs. 6'-8'
high stockade for more visual and sound screening. Ultimately,though they asked if a true
sound barrier wall would be possible. As you also expressed a similar preference, I have
instructed Terry to provide options and price estimates for the installation of such a wall. I will
present these to you and the Board when I receive them.
