RE: Request for wetlands permit waiver for Lot 15-8-24 in Orient
Dear Sir/Madam:
We have been notified that a violation of the Code of the Town of
Southold (Chapter 97, Article II, Section 97-20) occurred as a result of
work done on property owned by us. Given the nature of the work done,
we are formally requesting a waiver of the requirement for obtaining a
wetlands permit.

(m~p not ~o scale)

~et-off iir~
Cedar Dfrch Road

ltlSI'OR¥
Approximately a year ago an application to set-off this property into
two equivalent lots was submitted to the Town of Southold Planning Board.
A determination was made by the Planning Board that "....tz~e su~ey
indicate th~ fl~d plMn " and that "... a~prov~ ~ review hy ~
~p~tment of~v~onment~ Con.traCon" be obtained prior to Article 6
approval. The environmental Hrm of LAND USE (Wading River, ~) was
~niacted and ~ inspection of the property was done. They reporte~ ~o ~
that the property lines were not well demarcated ~d a determination or
where the we~ds beg~s or ends is d~ficult, They asked us to clear
some brush along the survey l~es and install markers at each su~ey
pGmt. The surveying firm of VAN TYLE (Greenpo~t, NW) w~s ~structed to
go back to ~e property and install the requested markers. Van Tyle's
records of lhe property indicated that most of the markers were installed
and simply clearing the brush would reve~ them, New markers however,
would have to be installed where the proposed set-off line was. Gary
Tabor, a l~al professional landscaper (who in the past ma~tained clear
passage along p~t of the right-of=way and ~ in.riot road) was ~structed
to a~mpany the surveyor and clear the ne~ssary brush along the old
survey lines and ~e new one. This work was ~mpleted in late Janu~y
1987. The noti~ of violation was received ~ February. Though we realize
lhat ignoran~ oi the law is no excuse, we were rather disappGmted that
three land use professionals failed to i~orm us that this work may require
a permit.
JUSTIFIC&TIOI~ OF REQUEST
Eventhough the work has been completed and no additional new
clearing near the wetlands is anticipated, we were informed by Officer
Dzenkowski that a request for a waiver must still be submitted.
The affected area was along the installation of marker F where a small
pond appears (see enclosed map). To get to this point, Mr. Tabor cleared
(but did not uproot) an approximately 30 by 6 foot strip of dried cattails.
The marker lies directly at the base of the pond. The remaining survey line
work involved re-clearing the existing Cedar Birch Road. For at least two
seasons this road was left unattended. Mr. Tabor cleared this private road
and was told to deposited the debris in piles on our land. (The actual road
belongs to Mr. Cantwell, but our deed allows us a right-of-way.) Upon
conducting this work, Van Tyle found all the remaining markers and
placed new posts with flags.
We realize this area is of special concern to the Town of Southold. Past
history has indicated a strong desire to preserve the pond and surrounding
environs. Our initial reasons for doing this work center around
environmental preserv~tion. If LAND USE INC. determines that the
southern area of this lot is likely to be defined as a wetlands, then our
application to subdivide will in all probability be withdrawn. However, the
precise po'mt at which a wetland starts and stops is extremely difficult to
determine. To allow this determination to be made, we l~.ad to demarcate
the property precisely. Unfortunately one of the survey markers came
directly up against the pond. This is the work for which we are requesting
a waiver.
We regret this work proceeded without your approval, but believe us
when we say it was truly unintentional. If you need additional
information, you may c~ll at (212) 481-7569 during daytime hours. We
look foward to hearing from you.
Jack Caravanos and George Mirros
