Little Neck Road, Cutchogue
At your request, the Southold Town Conservation Advisory Council made an
inspection of the above sited project. The inspection revealed the survey was
incorrect in regards to the location of the wetlands line. The line should
actually be located at the place shown as the 5' contour line on the submitted
survey.
The wetlands line should be restaked properly and resurveyed using the new,
correct wetland line and surveyors calculations made accordingly.

~~ k;'~ign f can~ The question of whether an ac~}on may be significant is not always easy to answer. Frequen~-
~k~~ere are ~5oe&~s of a oroiec¢ that are subjective or unmeasureab e. It is also unders~o~ that those Who-determine
7~nificance may have li~le or no formal knowledge of the environment or may be technically expert m environmental
analysis. In ad~ffion, many who have knowledge in one particular area may not be aware of the broader conchs a(fec~m8
the ouestion of significance.
The full EAF is intended to provide a method whereby applicants and agencies can be assured that the determination
process has been orderly, comprehensive ~n nature, ~ et flexible to allow introduction of information to fit a p~'oject or action.
Full IZAF Components: The full FAF is comprised of three parts: - -:----
Part 1: Provides objective data and information about a given project and its site. By identifying basic project
da:ta, it assists a reviewer in the analysis that takes place in Parts 2 and 3: - -
Part 2: Focuses on identifying the range of possible imoacts, that may occur from a project or actio'n. It provides
guidance as to whether an imoact is likely to be considered small to moderate or whether it is?_ potentially-
large impact. The form also identifies whether an impact can be mitigated or reduced.
Part 3: If any impact in Part 2 is identified as potentially-large, then Part 3 is used to evaluate whether or not the
impact is actually important.
DETERMINATION OF SIGNIFICANCE--Type I and Unlisted Actions
Identify the Portions of EAF completed for this project: [] Part 1 [] Part 2 I~Part 3
Upon rewew of the information ~'ecorded on this EAF (Parts 1 and 2 and 3 if appropriate), and any other supporting
informatior and considering both the magitude and importance of each impact, it is reasonably determined by the
lead agency that:
[] A. The project will not result in any large and 'imoortant im pact(s) and,'therefore, ~s one which will not
have a significant imoact on the environment, therefore a negative declaration will be prepared.
[] B. Although the prgject could have a s~gnificant effect on the environment, there will not be a significant
effect for this Unlisted Action because the mitigauon measures described in PART 3 have been required,
therefore a CONDITIONED negative declaration will be prepared.*
[] C. The project may result in one or more large and important impacts that may have a significant impact
on the environment, therefore a positive declaration will be prepared.

(-,)art 2--PROJECT IMPACTS A~'~' THEIR MAGNITUDE
Responsibility of Lead Agency
General Information tread Carefully)
· In completing the form the reviewer should be guided by the question: Have my responses and determinations been
reasonable? The rewewer is not expected to be an expert environmental analyst.
* ~dentifying that an impact will be potentially large (column 2) does not mean that it is also necessarily significant.
Any large impact must be evaluated in PART 3 to determine significance, Identifying an impact in column_2 simply
asks that it be looked at further.
· The Examples orovided are to assist the reviewer b', showing types of impacts and wherever possible the threshold of
magnitude that would trigger a response in column 2. The examples are generally applicabl~ throughout the State and
for most situations. But, fgr any specific project or site other examples and/or lower thresholds may be appropriate
for a Potential Large impact :esponse, thus requiring evaluation in Part 3.
· The impacts of each prolect, on each site, in each locality, will vary. Therefore, the examples are illustrative and
have been offered as guidance. They do not constitute an exhaustive list of impacts and thresholds to answer each question.
. The number of exam ~]es per question does not indicate the importance of each questioni
· In identifying impacts, consider long term, short term and cumlative effects.
Instructions (Read carefully)
a. Answer each of the 19 questions in PART 2. Answer Yes if there will be any impact.
b. Maybe answers should be considered as Yes answers.
c. If answering Yes to a question then check the appropriate box (column 1 or 2) to indicate the potential size of the
impact. If impact threshold equals or exceeds am/example provided, check column 2. tf impact will occur but threshold
is lower than example, check column 1.
d. If reviewer has doubt about size of the impact then consider the impact as potentially large and proceed to PART 3.
e. If a potentially large impact checked in column 2 can be mitigated by change(s) in the project to a small to moderate
impact, also check the 'Yes box in column 3. A No response indicates that such a reduction is not po§sible. This
must be explained in Part 3.
IMPACT ON LAND
Will the proposed action result in a physical change to the project site?
I/NO [~YES
Examples that would apply to column 2
· Any construction on slopes of 15% or greater. (15 foot rise per 100
foot of length), or where the general s]opes in the project area exceed
10%.
· Construction on land where the depth to the water table is less than
3 feet.
o Construction of paved parking area for 1,000 or more vehicles.
· Construction on land where bedrock is exposed or generalFy within
3 feet of existing ground surface.
· Construction that will continue for more than I year or involve more
than one phase or stage.
o Excavation for mmmg purooses that would remove more that 1.000
tons of natural material (i.e., 'ock or soil) per year
· Construction or. expansion of a sanitary landfill.
· Construction m a oes~§nated floodway.
· Other impacts

If Any Action in Part 2 Is Identified as a Potential Large Impact or
If You Cannot Determine the Magnitude of Impact, Proceed to Part 3
Part 3--EVALUATION OF THE IMPORTANCE OF IMPACTS
Responsibility of Lead Agency
Part 3 must be prepared if one or more impact(s) is considered to be potentially large, even if the impact(s) may be
mitigated.
Instructions
Discuss the following for each impact identified in Column 2 of Part 2:
I Briefly describe the impact.
2. Describe (if applicable) how the impact could be mitigated or reduced to a small to moderate impact by project change(s).
3. Based on the information available, decide if it is reasonable to conclude that this impact is important.
To answer the question of importance, consider:
· The probability of the impact occurring
· The duration of the impact
* Its irreversibilitv, including Dermanendy lost resources of value
· Whether the impact can or will be controlled
· 1-he regional consequence of the impact
· Its potential divergence from local needs and goals
· Whether known oblections to the prolect relate to this impact.
