Dear Mr. Gazza:
Please be advised that the Trustees have reviewed your map
for the above referenced subdivision. We would like to advise
you that a wetland permit will be required for any work proposed
within 75' feet of Wetlands.
Since the D.E.C. has learned that the project site is an the
vicinity of a known archeological site listed by the New York
State Historic Preservation Office, you may be requested to do a
survey. At that time, I would suggest that you contact this
office for a determination on the need of a permit or waiver for
that activity.
Should you have any further questions or concerns, please do
not hesitate to contact this office at the telephone number
listed above.

Re: Five (~) proposed Minor Subdivisions of Lettieri and Gazza
Qam Pond, East Marion, New York
Dear Mr. Frank Kujawski, Jr.
Thank you for your Board's assistance with the New York
State Department of Environmental Conservation in the flagging
and location of all Wetlands as shown on the overall proposed
Subdivision Man. As can be determined from our map, the only
area of work connected with this map that is within 75 feet
of Designated Wetlands would be where the proposed road
(existing Old Farm Road) crosses the most Westerly extremity
of Dam Pond. This is the only feasible access connection absent
an access connection into the "Cove Beach Estates Map" to the
Northwest, which to date the Town's Planning Board has not
provided for.
The Town Planning Board has not addressed this access
issue ~o date, as requested in my letter to them of September
26, 1988 (see copy attached). Therefore I respectfully request
permission from ycur Board for a Wetland Permit for this
section of roadway. The improvement snecifications that I
propose would be the placement of 4" of crushed stone blend
atop the existing traveled farm road in the adjacent area ho
the designated Wetlands.
Please advise if your Board needs any additional infor-
mation or if I must complete any forms for aoolication of the
Permit:
encl.

Dear Mr. Chairman, Bennett Orlowski, Jr.,
I~ am in receipt of a copy of your letter to New York State
Department of Environmental Conservation dated September 22, 1988
pertaining to ~the above referenced. It pleases me very much to see
that your Board is working on these five (5) subdivision Applica-
tions at thi~ime~ It was only after proof,sufficient to
the satisf~c%i~o~ of the Town Attorney that each Application
was separate., that the PlanninG Board accepted these five (5)
ApplicatiO~ as seperate Minor Subdivision Applications.
My records indicate that on September 19, 1985, your
Board endorsed the proposed thirteen (13) lot layout as
submitted on these five (5) Subdivision Applications, however,
required a 50~'foot right of way thru the subdivisions con-
structed in ~compliance with Town of Southold Highway
specifications. The correspondence, meetings and calls during
the period O,ctober 1985 to March 1987 between us focused on
the necessity for such a substantial road system and the
duplication of a parallel road system within the property of
Cove Beach Estates (an adjacent pending subdivision). The
continuous a~d perseW~lng efforts by the underslqned since
1977 with th~ various owners of Cove Beach Estates and your
Board to provide common access and a proper planned access
system have never been successful. I respectfully requested
of your Board to provide for future development of the
entire area by providing access to the Peninsula via a con-
nection into the Cove Beach Road system. This connection
would alleviate my proposed road which would have to cross
an area close to Wetlands on both sides. A road close to
Wetland~ necessitates re~isw by the Town Trustees and the
New Yo~k State Department of Environmental Conservation.

Your Board has been in a position to foster this.access
planning but has neglected to. In March of 1987, it became
apparent to the undersigned that your Board was not re-
quiring an access termination into the Penninsula thru
the Cove BeachMap and I therefore requested of your Board to
further process the five (5) Subdivision Applications to-
gether with road improvements dictated on September 19, 1985.
It was inquired of me by Planning Board staff as to the
status of the five (5) Subdivision Applications with the
SCDHS and the New York State Department of Environmental
Conservation.
The SCDHS position was;that further action on the five
(5) Applications could not be taken until a SEQR determination
by the Town of Southold was made (see notice attached) and
a Department of Environmental Conservation Permit had been
issued. The Department of Environmental Conservation's
position was that since the Town failed to respond to the
SEQR Lead Agency Coordination request by DEC of August 4,
1987, the DEC was proceeding with an uncoordinated, indepen-
dent review (see letter dated November 16,1987, attached).
The Board of Trustees, Town of Southold had on June 9, 1988
written that a 75 Ft. buffer landward of the DEC stake line,
should be maintained, as their recommendation.
The records I have kept pertaining to these.five (5)

jurisdiction due to previous review under SEQR, Lot Size,
elevation above sea level, and building envelope setbackq.
The Planning Board in connection with the prior approval
has reviewed this parcel and required a covenant to be
filed limiting subdivision to the requested three
Lots.
~- The four (4) PenniDsula parcels are each single and
seperate tracts independently owned. I have no intentions
of building on my two (2) parcels at this time, a retire-
ment home or future use by my three children would be a
possibility. Mr. Lettieri has not expressed intentions of

decided to subdivide our properties adjacent to each other,
to create an estate type setting of choice two plus
acre lots for our future.
? would hope that your Board re-consider the Cove Beach

which should obviate the need for me to build a road to Town

The Planning Board's sudden interest in obtaining lead
Agency status under SEQR pertaining to the five (5) sub-
division Applications puzzels me. On one Application, you
have already issued a negative Declaration and on %he other
four (4), since August 4, 1987, your Board has not been
interested despite requests by the undersigned on August 7,
1987, %he SCDHS on June 10, 1987 and the New York State
Department of Environmental Conservation on August 4, 1987.
It is my understanding that §617.6 of 6 NYCRR provides a
twenty (20) day time period for lead Agency status determina%ion.
It is not my desire %o argue with your Board over
these proposed subdivisions, but to work with your Board
to make the lots created a model subdivision of estate
type setting. I believe the proposed subdivision maps as
submitted define excellent lot layout, size and design. The
layout could be modified to further improve the subdivision
only if alternate access was available thru Cove Beach Estate's
road system. That choice is yours to make, mine only to
respectful:ly request. Three plus years has been a long
time to wait for permission to divide five (5) seperate
tracts into twelve (12) lots. Please advise what I may
do to satisfy your Planning concerns and help conclude
the subdivision process.

type se%ting. I believe the proposed subdivision maps as
submitted define excellent lot layout, size and design. The
layout could be modified to further improve the subdivision
only if alternate access was available thru Cove Beach Estate's
woad system. That choice is yours to make, mine only to
respectfully request. Three plus years has been a long
time to wait for permlsslon to divide five (5) seperate
tracts into twelve (12) lots. Please advise what I may
do to satisfy your Plannin~ concerns and help conclude
the subdivision process.

Re: Application ~o. 10-87-1200 Dam Pond, East qarion, Tidal Wetlands
Dear Mr. Hammorth,
A meeting was held last week with Miss Valarie Scopaz of
the Southold Town Plannin~ Department regarding the above re-
ferenced. Valarie explained that the Planning Board would
require a survey showing the line of Wetlands drawn fro~ actual
field ribboning of the Wetlands. I explaineo to Valarie that
you had requested the oroposed roao and lots to be staked out
by my surveyor pr£or to your inseection. It was Valarie's
suggestion that the Wetlands should be located first as the road
and lot layout may be at variance with the oroposed, oepending
upon Wetland location.
Please advise of your Department's 2ositioq regarding this
matter.

Mr. Gazza has been asked to stake the wetlands line. He has
been informed that the Planning Board will make no decisions
until this is done.
The Planning Board has made no determination whatsoever as

Re: Dam Pond Subdivision

Dear Mr. Gazza:
I am writing co update you om.the status of the above referenced project.
We are in receipt of your recent letter and updated subdivision plat showing
the DEC delineated tidal wetland line. Before you proceed with staking the location
of building envelopes and the road, we require additional information.
~ We recently learned that the project site is in the vicinity of a known ~
site listed the New York State Historic Preservation Office.
ar?heological
by
This info~mation combined with the sensitive nature of the area and the scope (
of the proposal caused the project to be referred to Dr. Michael Ci~quino, Arch- ~
~ eological Consultant to the Department's Cultural Resources Section. ~
In Dr. Cinquino's opinion, a sensitivity assessment and field survey should
be completed for the project area. Any disturbed areas should be clearly ~ocumeuted
if excluded from survey. This assessment is based on the factors outlined below:
] ·
New York State site files record archeological remains in the pro-
ject vicinity. This indicates a high potential for locating add-
itional archeological sites within the proposed project area.
The proposed project area has environmental characteristics similar
to recorded prehistoric sites. The soil is well drained, the
~errain fairly level and a major water source is closely associated.
The terrain of the area suggests erosion is moderate. Ground dis-
turbance from recent or historic activities appears limited. The
relative stability of the soil strata favors the preservation of
archeological remains.
Dr. Cinquino recommends sensitivity assessment, including historic map
research and archeological site file search, to be completed prior to
commeucement of a field survey. The assessment should be prepared
according to the report for Archeological Site/File Literature Search form.

A field survey should be zonducted in a systematic manner by a qualified
archeologist for the entzre proposed project area. The scope and methodology
should be based on the results of the sensitivity assessment. A rationale for
the testing should be clearly stated. Any areas of prior disturbance should
be clearly documented. Contact Dr. Cinq~ino for further information on evaluating
disturbance. NYSDEC Cultural Resources Section should be aotified by telephone
at (518) 457-3811 prior to the commencement of the site evaluation level of study
(if any cultural resources are located). Survey results should provide information
on boundaries, cultural affiliation and research potential for resources identffied.
In addition, New York State site forms must be completed for each site discovered
(copies attached). ~ site form must be completed for any prehistoric or historic
artifacts discovered during the project regardless of the significance of the
site.
The report should b~ prepared in accordance with the NYSDEC Report of Field
Reconnaissance form. The A~rcheol_~ql__o_gical_Site File/Literatue Search form and Field
Reconnaissance form ara attached and should be submitted together as one report.
Two coDies of the report should be forwarded upon ~omptetion to the NYSDEC Cultural
Resource Section - Albany for revzew and one copy submitted to this office for
placement in the application file.
Any specific questions regarding the requirements should be directed to
Dr. Cinquino at (518) 457-3811.
This information will allow us to proceed with the processing of this applic-
ation. Thank yon for your cooperation.
