Permission to Inspect Property application Supplement 12/08 ' 617.20 Appendix A State Environmental Quality Review FULL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT FORM Purpose: The full EAF is designed to help applicants and agencies determine, in an orderly manner, whether a project or action may be significant. The question of whether an action may be significant is not always easy to answer. Frequently, there are aspects of a project that are subjective or unmeasurable. It is also understood that those who determine significance may have little or no formal knowledge of the environment or may not be technically expert in environmental analysis. In addition, many who have knowledge in one particular area may not be aware of the broader concerns affecting the question 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 in nature, yet flexible enough to allow introduction of information to fit a project or action. Full EAF Components: The full EAF is comprised of three parts: Part 1: Provides objective data and information about a given project and its site. By identifying basic project data, it assists a reviewer in the analysis that takes place in Parts 2 and 3. Part 2: Focuses on identifying the range of possible impacts that may occur from a project or action. It provides guidance as to whether an'impact is likely to be considered small to moderate or whether it is a 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. THIS AREA FOR LEAD AGENCY USE ONLY DETERMINATION OF SIGNIFICANCE -- Type 1 and Unlisted Actions Identify the Portions of EAF completed for this project: ©Part 1 Part 2 ®Part 3 Upon review of the information recorded on this EAF(Parts 1 and 2 and 3 if appropriate),and any other supporting information, and considering both the magnitude and importance of each impact, it is reasonably determined by the lead agency that: PA. The project will not result in any large and important impact(s) and, therefore, is one which will not have a significant impact on the environment, therefore a negative declaration will be prepared. MB. Although the project could have a significant effect on the environment, there will not be a significant effect for this Unlisted Action because the mitigation 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. *A Conditioned Negative Declaration is only valid for Unlisted Actions Pier Reconstruction Name of Action Name of Lead Agency Print or Type Name of Responsible Officer in Lead Agency Title of Responsible Officer Signature of Responsible Officer in Lead Agency Signature of Preparer(If different from responsible officer) website Date PART 1--PROJECT INFORMATION Prepared by Project Sponsor NOTICE: This document is designed to assist in determining whether the action proposed may have a significant effect on the environment. Please complete the entire form, Parts A through E. Answers to these questions will be considered as part of the application for approval and may be subject to further verification and public review. Provide any additional information you believe will be needed to complete Parts 2 and 3. It is expected that completion of the full EAF will be dependent on information currently available and will not involve new studies, research or investigation.

Provide all proposed Best Management Practices that will further each policy. Incomplete answers will require that the form be returned for completion. DEVELOPED COAST POLICY Policy 1. Foster a pattern of development in the Town of Southold that enhances community character, preserves open space, makes efficient use of infrastructure, makes beneficial use of a coastal location, and minimizes adverse effects of development. See LWRP Section III —Policies; Page 2 for evaluation criteria. X Yes No Not Applicable The pier reconstruction makes appropriate benificial use of an existing waterfront site and complies with environmental design factors published by the NYS DEC and the DOS Coastal Management Program, Southold Local Law No 6 2004 and the Southold LWRP The pier will be built to a 4-foot deck height (8 FT MLW elevation level) over the bottom sediments at the Apparent High Water Line until passing the Apparent Mean High Water Line where the clearance will be approximately 5 feet and gradually increasing_ Rails will be 42 inches above the deck There will be no impairment of waterflow or navigation. Policy 2. Protect and preserve historic and archaeological resources of the Town of Southold. See LWRP Section III—Policies Page 3 through 6 for evaluation criteria. Yes No X Not Applicable 2 Policy 3. Enhance visual quality and protect scenic resources throughout the Town of Southold. See LWRP Section III—Policies Pages 6 through 7 for evaluation criteria Yes No X Not Applicable A pier has existed at this site for decades since before current Town regulation permitting programs or the LWRP. This project proposes to reconstruct the deteriorated dock facility to meet current standards consistent with safe boating and public access standards and typical climatological conditions. The pier will also be typical in construction to docks in similar coastal waters. NATURAL COAST POLICIES Policy 4. Minimize loss of life, structures, and natural resources from flooding and erosion. See LWRP Section III—Policies Pages S through 16 for evaluation criteria. Yes No X Not Applicable These pier reconstruction will take place in West Harbor and is acknowledged to be in a flood-prone area; there is wave exposure at this site The pier reconstruction will be designed to accommodate complete submersion and resist hydrostatic and hydrodynamic uplift pressures due to flooding. The1 height of the decking is specifically tailored to be above high tide storm and waves so as to minimize it susceptibility to damage in such conditions. Policy 5. Protect and improve water quality and supply in the Town of Southold. See LWRP Section III—Policies Pages 16 through 21 for evaluation criteria. Yes No X Not Applicable This project will not have any affect on suitability of or availability of drinking water on Fishers Island. Policy 6. Protect and restore the quality and function of the Town of Southold ecosystems including Significant Coastal Fish and Wildlife Habitats and wetlands. See LWRP Section III — Policies; Pages 22 through 32 for evaluation criteria. X Yes No Not Applicable 3 This protect is consistent with this policy because it proposes the elevation of the pier reconstruction at an acceptable height above the bottom sediments through which adjacent tidal wetlands vegetation may spread The deck height will also allow significantly improved light passage which will be conducive to growth of eel'grass in the shallow nearshore waters The dock site however is so rocky and so heavily shaded by brush understory vegetation and trees surrounding the cove that tidal vegetation along the shoreline is minimal No adverse impact on tidal or submerged vegetation is anticipated as a result of the proposed project In addition the NYS DEC prepared a study showing that the proposed pressure- treated Southern Pine timber products construction materials are suitable for this type of project in this location except for decking which will be of untreated woods or composite(or plastic)materials. As mentioned earlier, the design parameters shown on the drawings provides an optimum balance between acceptable design and access standards without depriving the wetlands vegetation the opportunity_to spread. Policy 7. Protect and improve air quality in the Town of Southold. See LWRP Section III — Policies Pages 32 through 34 for evaluation criteria. Yes No X Not Applicable There are no air duality issues related to this project No emissions will be generated by the dock facilft . Policy 8. Minimize environmental degradation in Town of Southold from solid waste and hazardous substances and wastes. See LWRP Section III — Policies; Pages 34 through 38 for evaluation criteria. Yes No X Not Applicable There is no solid waste or hazardous substances to be generated from this project. The pressure-treated wood trimming_s from the dock construction will be collected and disposed'of in accordance with current regulations so as to minimize any harmful affect. PUBLIC COAST POLICIES j Policy 9. Provide for public access to, and recreational use of, coastal waters, public lands, and public resources of the Town of Southold. See LWRP Section III—Policies; Pages 38 through 46 for evaluation criteria. Yes No X Not Applicable 4 ` This project is being built emanating from private land with adequate clearance for passage along the beach beneath the framing. The Public Trust Lands and waters constitutes the area between the Mean High Water Line and Mean Low Water Line and the resources are from the high tide line, out. These environmental resources are being_protected by the design standards dictated by the NYS DEC and the Town There is virtually no public use of the waterfront in this area and the reconstruction of the pier and landward extension above the apparent high water line are not likely to influence or change this fact. WORKING COAST POLICIES Policy 10. Protect Southold's water-dependent uses and promote siting of new water-dependent uses in suitable locations. See LWRP Section III — Policies; Pages 47 through 56 for evaluation criteria. X Yes No Not Applicable This project is to reconstruct a pier for water-dependent, recreational and transportation boating. This usage is defined as water-dependent in the LWRP because the pier reconstruction will be for recreational boating and provide boat transportation access to the mainland. The pier to shore is to provide access while protectingexisting xisting habitat. Policy 11. Promote sustainable use of living marine resources in Long Island Sound the Peconic Estuary and Town waters. See LWRP Section III — Policies; Pages 57 through 62 for evaluation criteria. Yes No X Not Applicable This pier is not used for commercial fishing or shellfish industries or enterprises. Policy 12. Protect agricultural lands in the Town of Southold.

For beach nourishment projects, grain size analysis data is required. 6. Describe the method of dredged material containment (i.e. hay bales, embankment, bulkhead, etc.) and whether return flow from the dewatering/disposal site would reenter any waterway. Also indicate if there would be any barge overflow. No dredging proposed. MOORING FACILITIES Answer the following if your project includes the construction or rehabilitation of recreational mooring facilities. 1. It is generally recommended that any fixed piers and walk ramps be limited to four feet in width, and that floats be-limited to eight feet in width and rest at least two feet above the waterway bottom at mean low water. Terminal floats at private, non- commercial facilities should be limited to 29 feet in length. If you do not believe your proposal can meet with these recommendations, please provide the reason(s). These criteria can be met as set forth in the attached narrative statement and as depicted in the application drawings. Five feet of pier width is considered necessary for this site in order to maintain dock stability including locating battered bracing piles beneath the structure without interfering with boat berthing alongside. 2. Using your plan view, show to scale the location(s), position(s) and size(s) (including length, beam and draft) of vessel(s) to be moored at the proposed facility, including those of transient vessel(s) if known. 3. For commercial mooring sites such as marinas, indicate the capacity of the facility and indicate on the plan view the location(s) of any proposed fueling and/or sewage pumpout facilities. If pumpout facilities are not planned, please discuss the rationale below and indicate the distance to the nearest available pumpout station. This docking facility can accommodate two boats but more often than not, just one, tied up on the side most suitable for berthing based on wind and wave conditions. 4. Indicate on your plan view the distance to adjacent marine structures, if any are proximate and show the locations and dimensions of such structures. The distance to adjacent dock facilities north and south of the site in West Harbor is approximately 300 feet. 5. Discuss the need for wave protection at the proposed facility. Please be advised that if a permit is issued, you would be required to recognize that the mooring facility may be subject to wave action from wakes of passing vessels, whose operations would not be required to be modified. Issuance of a permit would not relieve you of ensuring the integrity of the authorized structure(s) and the United States would not be held responsible for damages to the structure(s) and vessel(s) moored thereto from wakes from passing vessels. Wave protection as this site is not considered to be a necessary or appropriate expense. Wave heights are generally a foot or less and 3 feet during winds of 10 knots to 15 knots, typical of boating conditions at this site. BULKHEADING/BANK STABILIZA TION/FILLING ACTIVITIES Answer the following if your project inclues construction of bullfheading (also - retaining walls and seawalls) with backfill, filling of waters/wetlands, or any other bank stabilization fills such as riprap, revetments, gabions, etc. 1. Indicate the total volume of fill (including backfill behind a structure such as a bulkhead) as well as the volume of fill to be placed into waters of the United States. The amount of fill in waters of the United States can be determined by calculating the amount of fill to be placed below the plane of spring high tide in tidal areas and below ordinary high water in non-tidal areas. No filling is proposed. Z Indicate the source(s) and type(s) of fill material. 3. Indicate the method of fill placement (i.e. by hand, bulldozer, crane, etc.). Would any temporary fills be required in waterways or wetlands to provide access for construction equipment?

HARRINGTON FAMILY LIMITED PARTNERSHIP WEST HARBOR/FISHERS ISLAND SOUND FISHERS ISLAND,NEW YORK NARRATIVE STATEMENT & SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION FOR NYS DEC,NYS/DOS AND TOWN OF SOUTHOLD APPLICATIONS JULY 2016 GENERAL The Harrington Family Limited Partnership owns parcel 1000-02-01-12 off Private Road located along the west shore of Clay Point / Fishers Island Sound on Fishers Island. The site is generally moderately sloped, sandy gravel soils, vegetated with grass, brush, landscaping ground cover and trees. The frontage of the property is approximately 400 feet along West Harbor at the east shore, abutted by the Ferguson H L Museum property to the north and Jabco Limited Partnership to the south. The waterfront consists of a partially rock-covered beach with tidal wetlands vegetation at the base of the moderately sloped coastal bluff in the vicinity of the pier. It is Harrington family's desire to reconstruct the fixed pier dock system. The pier will be at an end elevation of 6 feet above mean low water (MLW), sloping upward and crossing over the boulder-strewn intertidal zone above the bottom sediments until reaching a finished elevation of about 8 feet as a level dock, a level landing to shore at that elevation, stopping short of the bank with an angled ramp to allow passage of the public. Attached are application drawings prepared for this project showing this configuration and pertinent details. This supplemental narrative has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of Town of Southold, Ordinance No. 6, 2004, and the Waterfront Revitalization Program related to docks and shorefront improvements. In addition, various coastal policies under the New York State Coastal Management Act are addressed herein for review by the New York State Department of State and Department of Environmental Conservation. DESCRIPTION OF WORK As mentioned in the introductory paragraph, this project is to re-construct a fixed wood pile and timber pier from the shore out into West Harbor / Fishers Island Sound in accordance with existing guidelines set forth in the Town of Southold ordinance No. 6,2004. It is envisioned that this structure will be built utilizing the following general sequence and methodology. ➢ The marine contractor will arrive by water with barge-mounted crane and push boats. ➢ The existing pier will be demolished and all materials salvaged for disposal in accordance with applicable laws,regulations and ordinances. ➢ New piles will be driven starting at the new shore landing end of theL pier and proceeding waterward at roughly 10-foot intervals to the waterward end of the pier. These piles will be driven by double-acting air hammer to a bearing capacity of approximately 20 tons and pull- out resistance of approximately 10 tons. This generally results in about 10 to 15 feet of embedment of the pile in the bearing stratum. Because of the exposure with the prevailing wind westerly wave field, these piles will be 12-inch nominal diameter class B Southern Yellow Pine pressure treated to 2.5 pcf of CCA type 3. 1 ➢ After the piles are installed, split caps (also referred to as split clamps) consisting of a pair of pressure treated Southern Pine timbers, 3 x 10 to 4 x 12 nominal dimension, will be bolted to the piles transversely forming a pile bent. Stringers will be then laid on the split caps parallel to the length of the pier. In all likelihood, five runs of stringers will be set to accommodate the grate type decking and will probably consist of 3 x 10 pressure-treated Southern Pine. ➢ The outer stringer on each side will be bolted or spiked to the pile to secure it against any uplift forces that this pier might be exposed to. ➢ After the stringers have been connected to the piles and split caps, the decking will be installed. In accordance with Town of Southold's Ordinance No. 6, 2004, this decking will not be CCA pressure-treated Southern Pine but rather"Thru-Flow" or similar synthetic, composite or plastic material with the brushed side mounted up. If composites or plastic are used, it will be either gray, brown or natural in color. Decking will be attached to the stringers utilizing galvanized nails or stainless steel Phillips or flathead square-drive wood screws about 3 inches long and will be set with a VV gap between deck planks. ➢ The over-water decking will run level at a height of up to eight feet above Mea Low Water and well above the existing bottom sediments in the shallow sub-tidal zone. See Sheet 4 of the application drawings for the pier profile. ➢ The piles will be,about 42 inches above the deck surface and support horizontal rail members. ➢ The mid-rail can be timber or cable and both details are shown. ➢ A top rail of cedar, oak,hardwood or Timber Tech material will be installed for safety. ➢ Water and electricity will be run out on the pier in the space between the stringers so that trickle chargers on the boat may be powered during tie-ups. The water will allow boats to be rinsed off after usage. A power post with an internal light will be mounted to the end of the fixed,pier with receptacles to provide power to the boats from extension cords. The power post will also have coiling arms for storage of the electric service cord and hose between uses. Because the dock may be,used during the hours of darkness, low-intensity lights will be mounted on staggered piles or dock rail posts to'illuminate the deck and the walking surface up the bank. This system will be manually or radio controlled with a shut-off timer so that the lights will only be on when necessary for safety of the users. LOCAL WATERFRONT REVITALIZATION POLICIES The Town of Southold, LWRP policies that are applicable to the dock proposal are a local refinement of the Long Island Sound Regional Coastal Management Program policies that apply throughout Long Island Sound. The Harrington site is in West Harbor off Fishers Island Sound on Fishers Island and is characterized predominately as undeveloped coast or natural coast. The undeveloped coast policies are applicable as follows: ➢ Policy 1 is to foster a pattern of development that enhances community character and preserves natural resources to the maximum extent and minimizes adverse impacts on the environment, ➢ Policy 2 is to preserve historic resources, ➢ Policy 3 is to enhance and protect scenic resources and visual quality. The pier reconstruction for the Harrington family is consistent with waterfront development on Fishers Island and in coastal areas. The pier is made of suitably-sized timbers and utilizes the materials allowable under Local Law #6 with due consideration of climatic conditions at the site. This proposal is consistent with other adjacent dock facilities and characteristics for the visual and scenic considerations. The encroachment has been minimized to be consistent with DEC policies, Southold Local Law #6, US ACOE policies and the structure is as low profile as possible consistent with the safe and efficient use of the waters and consistent with the tidal range of this site. Lighting 2 r 1 will be minimal for operational safety and otherwise off, and lights will be utilized only when necessary for boating purposes so that during hours of darkness there will be no adverse impact NATURAL COAST POLICIES The Natural Coastal Policies are 4 through 8 and require consideration as follows: ➢ Policy 4—Minimize loss of life, structures and natural resources from flooding and erosion, ➢ Policy 5—Protect and improve water quality ➢ Policy 6—Protect and restore the quality and function of the eco-system, ➢ Policy 7—Protect and improve air quality, ➢ Policy 8 - Minimize environmental degradation primarily from solid waste and hazardous substances. The pier reconstruction for the Harrington family recreational boating facility has been laid out and configured so as to be consistent with the DEC permit requirements for such structures and in accordance with recommendations of the Board of Trustees offered during the workshop presentation. There was no tidal wetlands vegetation on the beach where the pier begins. The pier has been configured high, clear of submerged aquatic vegetation in the shallow sub-tidal waters. As such, it provides adequate height to clear environmental resources of concern and the materials to be utilized are consistent with Town of Southold's Local Law#6 regarding environmental quality and the use of pressure-treated Southern Yellow Pine timber components in particular. There will be no adverse impacts on air quality as a result of this structure and the construction of the dock should not diminish overall environmental considerations in West Harbor / Fishers Island Sound. This dock facility matches the configuration of the structure approved in Trustees Permit Numbers 8235 and 8235C PUBLIC COAST POLICIES Policy 9 sets forth a priority to provide for public access and recreational use of coastal waters, public lands and public resources of the Town. This project creates a recreational boating facility for the Harrington property and so is consistent with this policy. WORKING COAST POLICIES The policies of this section relate to the following: ➢ Policy 10 — Protection of the Town's water-dependent uses and promoting new water- dependent uses in suitable locations, ➢ Policy 11 —Promoting sustainable use of living marine resources, ➢ Policy 12—Protect agricultural lands, ➢ Policy 13—Promote appropriate use and development of energy and mineral resources. While most of the Working Coast Policies are not applicable to this site or this type of project, Policy 10, promoting water-dependent uses and the siting of water-dependent uses in appropriate areas is applicable. The proposed project has been laid out to make the most beneficial use of the land and locating the dock facility in the most appropriate,historic point of the land where access down the bank will not require excessive structural facilities and can be accommodated with path work rather than formal stairs and so on. This project has been laid out with specific reference and review of the Waterfront Revitalization Program policies and is considered to be consistent. 3 1 In summary, the dock is typical of recreational boating facilities throughout the area and all along coastal New England. The structure has been minimized in size, height, and structure so as to be consistent with other facilities of a similar nature and the minimum necessary components to accommodate safe and efficient boating operations from this site safely in a variety of climatic conditions. This project does not interfere with public access or use of public trust waters and lands of the State, it does not interfere with navigation, it will not create soil or sedimentation erosion problems, it does not adversely environmental resources and in the area where the facility must span the intertidal zone at the shore line, the facility has been located in the area of rocks where environmental resources have already been diminished so as not to worsen any of these conditions. The height of the structure has been specifically addressed so as to allow vegetation of the shoreline by tidal wetlands plants if other conditions are conducive to such growth. The dock facility has also been located reaching out to the deepest water in Fisher Island Sound/West Harbor so that dredging will not be an issue in the future, thus further minimizing adverse environmental impacts. More than 95% of the Harrington shoreline will remain in a natural state as a result of these considerations for design. There is no loss of valuable marine and wetland habitat and no water quality degradation as a result of this project. No natural protective features or processes will be adversely impacted as a result of the proposed docking facility. Dense growth areas of submerged aquatic vegetation in the proposed dock or berthing area have been avoided. Reference is made to the NYS DEC study from 2000 indicating the suitability of pressure-treated Southern Yellow Pine piles and super-structure components for this type of purpose. The piles must be 12 inch diameter due to site exposure. In accordance with Local Law #6, decking for the pier and the ramp treads will be of woods other than Southern Yellow Pine-or plastic. This project is consistent with zoning.policies and ordinances for the Town. The dock facility will be an accessory to the home located at this site. There will be no development of the upland related to this dock facility that will create point sources of pollution or drainage. This project is considered to be providing recreational boating and water usage opportunity compatible with the natural resource values and characteristics of the site. The dock is the optimum size for stability considerations especially acknowledging that waves from the north can come into Fishers Island Sound/West Harbor and the floating dock is angled into those waves. REQUIREMENTS OF SECTION 97-25 OF THE WETLANDS LAW 6, 2004 The permittee acknowledges that the validity of this permit is subject to the approval of other governmental or municipal authorities. The permittee does, by the acceptance of this permit, assume all responsibility for operations undertaken pursuant to this permit, and shall take all precautions for the prevention of injuries to persons and property resulting from such operations. By such acceptance, the permittee also agrees to indemnify and save harmless the Town and its officers. The permittee gives consent to the Town and its officers, employees and agents to enter upon the premises where such operations are being conducted to make such inspections to determine whether said operations are being conducted in conformity with the permit. The permittee will notify the Trustees in writing one week prior to initiation of any and all operations. The permittee will notify the Trustees in writing upon completion of operations such that the site can be inspected for issuance for a certificate of compliance. In response to Sub-section 2a and the General Rules for Standards of Residential and Commercial Docks, the following additional information is offered. 4 1. Permits for the work are being applied for through the Town, US ACOS, NYS DEC and a coastal zone consistency determination by the NYS DOS. 2. The new piles to be installed will be of sturdy, durable and stable materials; in all likelihood, Greenhart, Kakaralli or CCA Type 3 pressure-treated Southern Yellow Pine (SYP) 12 inch diameter class B piles with new split caps and braces of pressure-treated SYP materials. These members will be a minimum of 3 x 8's and more often, 3 x 10's with at least one 1 inch bolt per connection, and in many cases,two 3/ inch bolts per connection. This pier is a fixed, pile-supported timber structure and therefore will not adversely affect the free circulation of water or reduce the effects of fluctuating water levels in Fishers Island Sound. In addition, the pier does not present any adverse modification of the shoreline. The pier's end elevation is such that in extreme high flood tides the structure will be inundated. The structure's SYP timber materials represent the standard of the industry being specifically grown for this type of usage and are capable of withstanding full immersion. With the connections described above, this structure will be able to survive repeated inundations and even direct waves at high tide elevations with a structural life of approximately 20 years. 3. The pier support will include driving new 12 inch diameter piles at 10-foot intervals to the maximum extent possible in order to obtain the desired pier alignment and support intervals. The use of CCA pressure-treated piles and timbers can be approved for this project in accordance with Local Law 6. 4. The pier will not be decked with CCA pressure-treated Southern Pine, but rather "Thru Flow" decking in accordance with Town laws / ordinances. This pier / walkway provides a safe pedestrian surface for access to the berthed boat. Rails may be installed on the pier for safety. 5. The pier is located near the center of the property line. The 15-foot clearance specified in this paragraph has been honored and should not be an issue because the proposed pier does not represent a significant encroachment into the boating operation area of the property to the south or to the north nor does it project into the navigation way for other boaters in the cove. 6. Upon receipt of the permit for this project, appropriate permit numbers and a Town permit placard will be affixed to the most seaward face of the pier for identification from the water. 7. There are no permanent structures located above the pier decking, nor are any planned at this time, other than the power post and railing which are fixed by function. 8. It is currently possible to provide a five-foot passage way beneath this pier and that access ability will be retained landward of the apparent high water line. There is only minimal room to walk under the pier at high tide, however, foot traffic in this area is rare, if at all and so the additional structure of an up and over stairway has been left out of this pier layout. 5 NEW YORK STATE COASTAL MANAGEMENT PROGRAM These application documents include a copy of the Federal Consistency Assessment Form utilized for the New York State Coastal Management Program under the jurisdiction of the New York State Department of State. The following policies have been identified as pertinent to this application and the reason for consistency associated with this project is outlined in each respective case. Policy 2 Water Dependent Uses—This project is to construct a fully functional water dependent use, a recreational boating dock facility at this site in support of recreational boating. Policy 5 —Use of Existing_Developed Shorefront—There is no developed shoreline on this site. This project utilizes natural existing shorefront which is dominated by an accumulation of stone which has abundant vegetative resources such as bittersweet, poison ivy and junipers with only sporadic patches of tidal wetlands vegetation. The project will be to rebuild the pier and ramp it to a logical shoreward terminus to make it safe and reliably usable in most weather conditions without impeding shoreline public access. Policy 7 — Significant Fish & Wildlife Habitat — Protection of significant fish and wildlife habitat has been considered in the development of this project layout. The pier, to the shoreward point of beginning, has avoided the shoreline spartina patches and runs four feet above the rocky intertidal sediments and should not jeopardize the health of any shoreline vegetation. Typically there is a slight environmental benefit to a pier project because of the creation of structure in the water column where barnacles, algae and crustaceans will colonize and grow. The alignment of the pier and the two slips passes clear of the mapped eel grass fringe strip that follows the 3 to 4 contours to the south. Policy 8 —Protection & Preservation of Habitat—Protection and preservation of habitat has also been considered in this project and the dock structure is being kept to its minimal configuration and of materials consistent with standards of the industry and restrictions set forth in the Wetlands Law, No. 6, 2004 set forth by the Town of Southold and standards of the NYS DEC. The pier is located over a stony part of the beach to make use of the least habitat and minimize damage to natural resources. Policy 11 — Minimize Damage to Natural Resources - The dock construction project has been laid out in such a way so as to minimize damage or impact to natural resources as identified in Policy 7 above. The dock facility has been sighted in its longstanding where stone on the beach has already impacted shoreline vegetation and the length reduced to the minimum practical length. Policy 14 — No Measurable Increase in Flooding - This project consists of construction of an open wood pile and timber pier which in no way adversely affects waterflow and circulation in West Harbor / Fishers Island Sound or flooding potential of the area. Flood levels all around Fishers Island are dictated by water levels in Long Island Sound, Fishers Island Sound and Block Island Sound and this structure will have no adverse influence or in any way impact on those levels. Policy 15 —No Dredging=Dredging is not required in this project. The dock system has been laid out in its current location and configuration to avoid any dredging requirements. The depth of 4 feet, as generally recommended by the NYS DEC and US ACOE, has been reached. The waters are protected enough that boats can be berthed bow to shore leaving the motor out in the deeper water. The boat will not ground out at low tide. Policy 19 — Impact on Public Access —Public access will not be jeopardized or impeded as a result of this project. As a matter of fact, there is almost no public access usage of the public trust lands or waters at this site except kayaking and canoeing. The intertidal zone is significantly covered by 6 boulders and that is common on adjacent properties. The shallow sub-tidal waters do not present any opportunity or enticement for public access in the area. The pier does not reach the landward 25% of the waterway width in accordance with US ACOE policies. Thus, public access to the State's lands and waters will not be adversely affected by the project. Policy 20 — Public Trust Compatibility with Existing Adjoining Properties and Land Uses- Public Trust compatibility with existing adjoining properties and land uses have also been considered in this project. Several nearby properties have small docking facilities similar to this one and this docking facility will not interfere with existing or the likely configuration of future facilities on immediately adjoining properties or the logical allocation of littoral development rights. Policy 21 —Water Dependent Recreation—This project is consistent with water-dependent recreational opportunities policies set forth in this section. Policy 24 —Scenic Resources, Impairment or Loss - This policy is designed to prevent impairment or loss of scenic resources. The length, height and width of the fixed wood pile and timber pier will not represent such an extent of encroachment or structure which would create a loss of scenic resources. Policy 25 — Enhance Overall Scenic Quality= The new dock structure will be consistent with the scenic quality of the area and prevent loss of scenic resources as described in Policy 24 above. Policy 44 — Preserve and Protect Tidal Wetlands — It is acknowledged that the spartina alterna flora exists sporadically in patches along the shorefront. The construction of the fixed wood pile and timber pier has taken advantage of a typical un-vegetated strip of the shoreline caused by the deposit of stone in order to avoid adverse wetlands vegetation impact. The height of the pier should allow opportunities for the growth of the spartina fringe marsh naturally up to, and to an extent, beneath the wood pier if other conditions are suitable, and the same with submerged aquatic vegetation, but to date that has not occurred in the proposed pier site. SUMMARY This project is for pier reconstruction for recreational boating access at property of the Harrington family on Fishers Island. A copy of all US Army Corps of Engineers, NYS DEC and Town of Southold applications are attached as substantiation for this project. This project complies with applicable standards of the New York State Coastal Management Act, NYS / DEC Tidal Wetland Regulations and criteria for approval, the Town of Southold Waterfront Revitalization Program and Local Ordinance No. 6, 2004 and its approval is thus respectfully requested.
