demonstrate how environmentally sustainable techniques can be applied to address shoreline
protection, enhance habitat, and improve water quality (Living Shoreline Demonstration Project) , for
the Town.
II. SPECIFIC SERVICES
CCE shall implement a Living Shoreline Demonstration Project near the Suffolk County Marine
Environmental Learning Center (the "SCMELC") in Southold, New York (the "Project Site"). Coconut
fiber (coir) logs, Cordgrass (Spartina alterniflora) plantings, and hatchery cultivated and collect ribbed
mussels (Geukensia demissa) will be placed at the Project Site to provide shoreline stabilization,
improve habitat, reduce nitrogen, and enhance ecosystem services. The Services provided shall also
include the tasks deliverables more fully described in paragraph 4 of Article I herein.
CCE will furnish all labor, materials, supplies, equipment and other similar items necessary or
proper for, or incidental to, the work contemplated by this Contract-and in strict accordance
with such changes as are ordered and approved pursuant to this Contract.
Ill. TIME AND ATTENDANCE: COOPERATION BY THE TOWN
The entire Living Shoreline Demonstration Project, as described in paragraphs a-e below, including but
not limited to, installation, design, and reporting, shall be completed prior to the expiration of the Term
of this Contract.
a. Task 1: July-August 2018: CCE shall develop and finalize conceptual plans for three different
types of living shoreline designs to be installed. CCE shall hold meetings with New York State
Department of Environmental Conservation ("NYSDEC") personnel to discuss these three
options to ensure that they conform to New York State wetland permit specifications. CCE
shall apply for permits on behalf of the Town to implement the three living shoreline designs.
CCE shall collect and condition ribbed mussels from natural beds in Cedar Beach Creek for
spawning use. Adult ribbed mussels will be conditioned in the shellfish hatchery at the
SCMELC. This process is expected to take approximately 8 weeks.
Deliverable 1: Living Shoreline Designs: CCE shall submit to the Town draft conceptual
plans for three different types of living shoreline designs to be installed at the Project Site. The
1
Town shall review and approve the draft conceptual plans, and if necessary, return the plans to
the CCE with comments and alterations prior to plan approval.
b. Task 2: August-September 2018: CCE shall follow up with NYSDEC on the status of permit
applications. CCE shall prepare for the fall planting and installation season by acquiring the
necessary materials for shoreline installations.
CCE shall spawn ribbed mussels at the SCMELC shellfish hatchery, attempt to grow mussel
larvae to the point of setting, and set the larval mussels on appropriate media allowing for
culture in containment. CCE shall maintain post set larvae in the hatchery through at least the
fall. CCE will collect adult and juvenile ribbed mussels in nearby natural marshes to for use in
supplementing the hatchery production for the purposes of outplanting.
Deliverable 2: Planting and Shellfish Update: By the end of November 2018, CCE shall
submit to the Town a report including, but not limited to, updates regarding the (i) status of
permit applications related to and necessary for the successful completion of the Project, (ii) fall
planting and installation season preparations, including items remaining to be completed, and
any problems that were encountered or foreseeable problems that may arise, and (iii) progress
of the ribbed mussel spawning.
c. Task 3: September-November 2018: CCE shall install shoreline structural components
(rocks, wood, and geotextiles) for each living shoreline design. CCE shall transplant locally
collected and propagated plant material into the structures and adaptively manage the
plantings to ensure planting success.
CCE shall continue cultivation of ribbed mussels at the hatchery. Once to adequate size, CCE
will facilitate the attachment of mussels to appropriate substrate that can be transplanted
directly into the shoreline structures. This work should take place in July and August with
outplanting taking place as early as October, but in some cases the seed mussels will have to
be kept over winter.
Deliverable 3: Installation and Shellfish Update: By the end of November 2018, CCE shall
submit to the Town a report including, but not limited to, updates regarding the (i) installation of
shoreline structural components, including completed items, items remaining to be completed,
and any problems that were encountered or foreseeable problems that may arise, and (ii)
progress of the ribbed mussel spawning and transplanting, including an updated timeline for
transplanting.
d. Task 4: October-November 2018: CCE shall plant nursery grown ribbed mussels into the
shoreline structures. The planting of mussel beds will be supplemented with natural and adult
mussels from nearby donor meadows as necessary. CCE shall develop collection and
transplant protocols for the ribbed mussel for use in future efforts.
CCE will begin monitoring growth and survival of planted mussels and will continue to monitor
shoreline installation. Additional marsh grass plantings will be added to the site as necessary.
Deliverable 4: Installation and Shellfish Update Two: By the end of December 2018, CCE
shall submit to the Town a report including, but not limited to, updates regarding the (i)
2
installation of shoreline structural components, including completed items, items remaining to
be completed, and any problems that were encountered or foreseeable problems that may
arise, (ii) progress of the ribbed mussel spawning and transplanting, including an updated
timeline for transplanting and details regarding any mussels obtained from nearby donor
meadows, and (iii) monitoring of growth and survival of planted mussels and other installation
components.
e. Task 5: November 2019: CCE shall monitor and document overall success of the three types
of living shoreline designs installed and with particular emphasis on growth and survival of
plant material and mussels.
CCE, in conjunction with the Town, shall prepare a Final Report documenting project
successes and challenges. The Report will provide recommendations and guidance for the
CCE and the County to use for implementation of future living shoreline projects.
Deliverable 5: Final Report: By the end of December 2019, the CCE shall submit to the
Town a Final Report that shall include, but not be limited to, updates and analysis regarding (i)
the permit application process, (ii) the installation of shoreline structural components, including
successful tactics and any pitfalls or problems that were encountered during the installation
process, and (iii) the spawning and planting of ribbed mussels, including successful tactics and
any pitfalls or problems that were encountered during the transplanting process. The Final
Report shall also include (iv) a final analysis and summary of the overall success of the three
types of living shoreline designs installed, including a particular emphasis on growth and
survival of plant material and mussels, and (v) recommendations and guidance for the
implantation of future living shoreline projects.
