Sir:
Regarding the proposed plan for the dredging operation near the
mouth of Mattituck Inlet for the leading of barges, the undersigned
stron91~ opposes this heavy-duty freighting which is scheduled to Go
on for 20 years.
A serious traffic hazard afloat. The present Gotham
barges already with their double parking in the narrow
inlet is a hazard to the hu~ldreds of pleasure boats
using the Mattituck Inlet.
It will cause a traffic hazard ashore. The only route
the trucks can fellow fre~a Sound Avenue to the dock side
are either Cox Neck Rd and Mill Road or Bergen Avenue.
These roads a~-e built for passsnger traffic in a
residential neighberhoed~ they were never constrected
to accomodate heav~ trucking.
Cost of roads. All of $outhold Town taxpayers ,will have
to pay to rebuild reads~ since the present roads cannot
stand up to the heavy trucking necessar~ for the proposed
operations.
We believe this trucking and barging will bring nothing to Mattituck
except noise~ dan~e,r~ e~ense~ and loss of revenue for the pleasure
boat business. I~ must be stopped now.
We would amk that a local public hearin~ be held~so that we all may
know 'what is going on~
Yours ~ruly~
KI&us ~eier

Dear ~. Colvin:
Last M~y you published a Notice of Application in the local
papers, referring to plans by East Coast M~nes, inc., to
construct dolphins and ~o dredge an area in ~ttituck Creek.
At that time our chapter of National Audubon Society saw no
direct or immediate threat to tha environment nor to good
conservation proceedures.
However, there appears to be a growing tendency to bludgeon
away at the once beautiful creek and its surroundings, and
one wonders where it will all end° The aesthetics at this
point near the envrance to thesound have been perm,~mnently
damaged by commercial interests blind ~o the comfort and
s~rroundings of residents. N~ effective ~straints or caution
has been shown by town or counoy officials. The olans of East~
Coast Mdnes, Znc., appear to threaten further decline of the
environment here, in and adjacent vo the operation itself.
I~o' has jurisdiction here? Is the Army Corps of Engineers
involved? Can we look for help from the Trustees or Town
Board of Southold Town? Acres of living wetlands lie just
across the creek from this growing industrial comple~ the
navigable wa~ers menaced by ear~h-moving equipment/the
former serenity of the waterway destroyed.
Can you assure us that the wetlands here are guarded, and
that the word and spirit of laws.are being respected? Can we
have some assurance from the Department of Environmental Con-
servation that the people of the North Fork need not fear
that the remaining advantages of the creek will diminish?
%% would appreciate a word from your office, and we assure
you of our dedication to promoting the interest~ of environmental
conservation.
Sincerely yourD,
(Signed)
