I. EXISTING SITE CONDITIONS:
1.1 Physical and Oceanographic Features:
The Cross Sound Ferry site is located on the south side of Orient Point, Long
Island. The site faces slightly east of south and is located on Gardiners Bay, north of
Gardiners Island and the southern fork of Long Island, and west of Plum Island. This
location provides shelter from extreme wave action approaching from all directions except
the east-northeast to east-southeast (70 degrees- 110 degrees True North). The
alongshore transport associated with this wave action is directed to the south-west. This
pattern of sand transport is also evident in the aerial photographs of the region. Local,
wind-driven seas from the south (Gardeners Bay) can also impact the site.
An analysis was performed of the wind-wave climate at the site, based on a one-
year record of the surface winds at the Cross Sound Ferry terminal. We employed the
1995 wind record in the analysis. Figure 1 illustrates the directional distribution of winds
in 1995. Note that the reported direction represents the direction from which the wind is
blowing. Figure 2 provides more detailed information about the wind climate, including
the frequency of occurrence of winds having specified magnitudes, for each direction.
The wind characteristics and a knowledge of the wind fetch, or distance over
which the wind acts, can be employed in the estimation of the resulting wind wave
characteristics at the site. We employed the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers' wind wave
forecasting algorithm in this analysis. The results can be summarized as follows:
Wind Speed Significant Wave Height (ft.) Peak Period (s.)
(kts.) (average height of highest 33%waves)
15 3.36 3.63
20 4.31 4.12
25 5.21 4.53
30 6.06 4.90
40 7.62 5.53
50 9.04 6.06
It should be noted that the extreme waves (in excess of 6 feet in height) will likely break
well before reaching the site.
The mean tide range at the site is 2.5 feet. The Spring tide range is 3.0 feet.
Overall, the beach fronting the project site is extremely coarse-grained, with two
distinct berms, one just landward of the mean high tide line and one seaward of the
temporary dredge spoil disposal stockpile area. These features are clearly visible in the
photographs provided as Figure 3a,b.
Samples of the surface and sub-surface (approximately 5 inches below the surface)
sediments were obtained during a site visit on 19 July, 1997. Both surface and sub-surface
samples were collected because of the vertical non-uniformity of the sediments in the area.
A total of seven samples were obtained, spanning four different locations:
A-2
SAMPLE LOCATION
1 surface intertidal zone
1 subsurface "
2 surface landward of mean high water
2 subsurface "
3 surface seaward of temporary dredge spoil disposal stockpile area
3 subsurface "
4 surface top of temporary dredge spoil disposal stockpile area
A sieve analysis was conducted on the sediment.samples(see Appendix A) at
Stevens Institute of Technology in Hoboken, New Jersey. Results of this analysis can be
summarized as follows:
SAMPLE MEDIAN GRAIN SIZE(MM)
1 surface 12.84
1 subsurface 0.4
2 surface 7.2
2 subsurface 4.4
3 surface 16.3
3 subsurface 13.6
4 surface 8.3
In summary, the surface sediments in the beach area from approximately mean low water
to the temporary dredge spoil disposal stockpile area can be characterized as coarse sand
to fine gravel. The subsurface sediments in the intertidal zone can be characterized as
medium sand; the remaining subsurface sediments are similar to the surface sediments and
can be characterized as coarse sand to fine gravel.
The site is bordered on the west by an existing parking lot and the Cross Sound
Ferry slip (fig. 3a), and on the east by undeveloped property(N/F Morris) characterized
by a sparsely vegetated dune area backed by a grass lawn(fig. 4a,b). It is worth noting
that the area further east of the site is characterized by a maturely vegetated dune system.
West of the Cross Sound Ferry lies a federally owned ferry terminal, a privately owned
marina/restaurant, and further westward, Orient Beach State Park.

1.2 Historical Overview:
A review of aerial photographs of the site dating from 1955 through 1996 indicates
that the site was previously cultivated farmland that extended seaward to a thin line of
vegetation bordering the sand beach. Prior to 1969, the current dirt road was constructed
along the seaward line of vegetation, at which point new vegetation began to take root in
the region between the upper beach berm and the dirt road.
Whereas the region considerably east of the project site slowly developed a densely
vegetated dune, the site itself did not support such growth, most likely because of edge
effects associated with the adjacent areas (to be discussed later in this report) and the use
of what would be a natural location for a dune system as a temporary storage area for
dredge spoils.
1.3 Relationship of Site to Coastal Erosion Hazard Area:
The CEHA-designated landward limit of the Natural Protective Feature Area runs
along the landward edge of the existing dirt road that borders the seaward edge of the
project site. The proposed project therefore lies landward of the CEHA.
1.4 Relationship of Site to FEMA Flood Zones:
The project site lies largely in FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area Zone AT This
means that the area is subject to inundation by the 100 year flood, and has a base flood
elevation of 7 feet. Since the proposed parking lot will have a minimum elevation of
slightly less than 8 feet, we do not consider the project to be at high risk of flooding. A
small portion of the site (in the north-east corner) lies in FEMA Zone B, which is defined
as an area that has only a moderate or minimal risk of flood damage.
1.5 Relationship of Site to Tidal Wetlands:
The NYSDEC Tidal Wetland Map does indicate that "Coastal Shoals, Bars and
Mudflats" ("SM") and"Littoral Zone" ("LZ") areas are located offshore of the site
A-4
H. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS:
2.1 Beach:
Since the project will not extend to the beach, or into what would be a natural
location for a dune system, we do not anticipate any impact on the physical characteristics
and dynamics of the beach area. This expectation is based on the assumption that drainage
of the parking area will be directed away from the beach. Since the project site is not
currently serving as a sediment source to downdrift beaches, we do not anticipate any
impact on adjacent beach areas (e.g. Orient Beach State Park).
2.2 Tidal Wetlands:
As mentioned in section 2.1, the project will not extend to the beach and therefore
will not impact the offshore, littoral zone. We do not anticipate any impact on the
physical characteristics and dynamics of the coastal shoals, bars and mudflats located in
the littoral zone seaward of the project site.
2.3 Dune:
There is currently no dune fronting the project site. Rather the natural dune area
has been utilized as a temporary stockpile area for spoils resulting from the occasional
dredging of the Cross Sound Ferry slip. Approximately 3,600 cubic yards/year are
dredged from the slip and trucked to Orient Beach State Park for use as beach fill (A.
Wronowski, pers. comm.).
We do not anticipate any impact on the sparsely vegetated dune region
immediately east of the project site. This region has already been impacted by edge effects
associated with the dirt road and grass lawn landward of the dune area. It serves as a
transition region from the project site(where no dune exists) to the maturely vegetated
dune system far removed (to the east) from the project site. We do not anticipate any
further degradation of the transition region because the project site does not represent a
barrier to vegetation recruitment from the mature dune system to the transition region.
A-5
III. Mitigation Measures to Minimize Impacts:
1. The parking area should be located landward of the existing dirt road that borders the
seaward edge of the project site. Measures should be taken to assure that vehicles are
prohibited access to the dredge spoil area that lies immediately seaward of the dirt
road.
2. During construction, the temporary dredge spoil disposal stockpile area should be
utilized as a temporary barrier to minimize runoff and sediment transport from the
project site to the beach area. In particular, care should be taken to avoid intense
storm water flow toward the beach during the construction process; when laden with
sediments these flows can be highly erosive and may cause degradation of the beach
face and adjacent dune regions.
3. The project design should ensure that any and all run-off from the completed parking
area is directed away from the beach and dune areas.
4. If possible, new dune vegetation should be planted and maintained along the seaward
boundary of the project site. This recommendation is made without knowledge of the
plans for future access to the temporary dredge spoil disposal stockpile area.

Summary
1 . The project site is classified as a successional old field. The area is
dominated by a large number of non-native plant species interspersed
with a fewer number of native species. Successional fields are among the
most common types of ecological communities on eastern Long Island.
2. Successional fields are utilized by some species of birds and small
mammals as nesting sites, a source of food, and protection from predators.
3. No freshwater or tidal wetlands occur on site nor within 100 feet of
the proposed development site.
4. There is no unique flora occurring in the bordering marine environment
of Gardiners Bay that will be negatively impacted by the proposed
development project.
5. No rare plant species were observed at the proposed development site.
7. The rare Seabeach Knotweed was not observed this year along the rocky
beach adjacent to the proposed development site, but suitable habitat is
available for the plant to colonize.
8. Clearing of vegetation should be restricted to only those areas
necessary, and after construction the site should be landscaped with
naturally occurring vegetation.
9. A complete list of all species observed on site is provided in the
appendix. Sixty-nine species of vascular plants were identified from the
site during July to September, 1997; of the 69 species, 44 (64%) are non-
native species.

Introduction
This vegetation report is based upon: 1) Approximately 16 hours of
field work at the proposed development site and adjacent lands during
July, August, and September, 1997. This time period was ideal for
observing the entire growing season of vascular plants: spring species
were still identifiable by fruit in July, and the autumn bloom of
goldenrods and asters were observed in mid-September. Searches for the
rare seabeach knotweed (Polygonum glaucum) were conducted along the
cobble beach from Orient Point to the eastern portion of Orient Beach
State Park. 2) Literature searches of rare plants and rare ecological
communities reported by the New York State Department of Environmental
Conservation/N.Y.S. Natural Heritage Program.
Results
Site Description: According to the classification system of Reschke
(1990), Ecological Communities of New York State, the project site is
classified as a successional old field. The area is dominated by a large
number of non-native plant species interspersed with a fewer number of
native species. Successional fields are among the most common types of
ecological communities on eastern Long Island where land had once been
cleared and was subsequently abandoned. Rare native plants and animals
do not usually occur in these highly disturbed areas.
Sixty-nine species of vascular plants were identified from the site
during July to September, 1997; of the 69 species, 44 (64%) are non-
native species. Ragweed (Ambrosia artemisiifolia) and mugwort
(Artemisia vulgaris) form extensive stands. Some native species include
A-41
goldenrods (Solidago spp.) and asters (Aster spp.). This large number of
observed plant species is characteristic of land undergoing the early
stages of ecological succession. Climax plant communities in
northeastern United States typically are dominated by a significantly
lower number of plant species. Successional fields are relatively short
lived, they naturally succeed into shrubland communities which in turn
can succeed into woodland or forest communities. The successional field
stage is characteristically dominated by opportunistic species that
require a high degree of light intensity. Non-native plant species from
Europe and Asia often invade these successional fields; such is the case at
the proposed development site. A complete list of all species observed on
site is provided in the appendix of this report.
Successional fields are utilized by some species of birds and small
mammals as nesting sites, a source of food, and protection from
predators. Conversely, predators such as hawks, owls, and red fox prey
upon small birds and mammals occurring in successional fields.
No freshwater or tidal wetlands occur on site nor within 100 feet of
the proposed development site.
No unique flora occurring in the bordering marine environment of
Gardiners Bay will be negatively impacted by the proposed development
project. The only two flowering plant species occurring in the shallow
waters of eastern Long Island bays are eelgrass (Zosters marina var.
stenophylla) and widgeon-grass (Ruppia maritima); neither species occurs
in waters within the immediate vicinity of the Cross Sound Ferry dock at
IOrient. Marine eelgrass meadows are communities of subtidal aquatic
beds occurring in quiet waters below the lowest tide level.
A-42
Characteristic algae occurring in this marine ecosystem are sea lettuce
(Ulva lactuca), Enteromorpha spp., Polysiphonia spp., and Cladophora
gracilis. The marine waters adjacent to the ferry dock are too turbulent
to support an eelgrass meadow.
Rare Plants: No rare plant species were observed at the proposed
development site. New York Natural Heritage Program reports 11 species
of rare plants from the vicinity of Orient Point (the following list is
arranged in alphabetical order by genus, followed by the common name of
each species, the habitat supporting each species, and comments
specifically related to the proposed development site):
1. Agrimonia rostellata, Woodland Agrimony; moist rich woods;
suitable habitat for this species does not exist on site.
2. Angelica lucida, Coastal Angelica; beaches & rocks along the coast;
fewer than five populations of this rare plant occur in New York (all
in eastern Suffolk County), suitable habitat occurs adjacent to the
proposed development site but no plants were located during field
searches.
3. Carex hormathodes, Marsh Straw Sedge; salt marshes; suitable
habitat for this species does not exist on site.
4. Eleocharis fallax, Creeping Spikerush; fresh & brackish swamps;
suitable habitat for this species does not exist on site.
5. Ligusticum scothicum, Scotch Lovage; sandy or rocky seashores; the
largest New York population of this rare species occurs at Orient
Beach State Park, suitable habitat occurs adjacent to the proposed
development site but no plants were located during field searches.
A-43
6. Onosmodium virginianum, Virginia False Gromwell; dry woods &
barrens; suitable habitat for this species does not exist on site.
7. Polygonum glaucum, Seabeach Knotweed; sandy or rocky beaches;
the disturbed successional field on site does not provide suitable
habitat for seabeach knotweed, but the adjacent rocky beaches
provide ideal habitat for this rare plant. Seabeach knotweed occurs
along the rocky beaches at Orient Beach State Park and also at
Orient Point. I did not observe any plants this year along the rocky
beach adjacent to the proposed development site but certainly
suitable habitat is available for the plant to colonize. Seabeach
knotweed is an annual, which means the plant lives for one year,
reproduces, sets seed, and dies. The seeds are dispersed along
seashores by wind and high tides. The seeds can survive extended
periods of saltwater exposure. Populations of this rare and unique
plant commonly migrate short distances along rocky beaches from
year to year. To my knowledge, the upper beach above the high tide
level bordering the proposed development site will in no way be
impacted by the project; therefore, suitable habitat capable of
supporting future populations of seabeach knotweed should remain
available for colonization.
8. Polygonum tenue, Slender Knotweed; dry, chiefly acid soils; a
population of this rare plant occurs on storm ridges at Orient Beach
State Park; this rare plant does not typically occur in highly
disturbed soils; no plants were located on site during field searches.
9. Rumex maritimus var. fueginus, Golden Dock; shorelines; suitable
habitat occurs adjacent to the proposed development site but no
A-44
plants were located during field searches.
10. Sagina decumbens, Small-flowered Pearlwort; sandy soils in
partial to full sunlight, and in waste places; fewer than five
populations of this rare plant occur in New York, suitable habitat
occurs on site but no plants were located during field searches.
11. Sesuvium maritimum, Sea Purslane; damp coastal sands; suitable
habitat occurs adjacent to the proposed development site but no
plants were located during field searches.
Revegetation of undeveloped areas: The DEIS scoping outline
indicates that clearing of vegetation should be restricted to only those
areas necessary, and after construction the site should be landscaped with
naturally occurring vegetation. These initiatives will have a positive
impact upon the environment.
Currently, the northern and eastern borders of the property are largely
dominated by non-native species of trees and shrubs. Many of the existing
trees (Japanese black pine and mimosa) are either dead or dying. The
invasive non-native vine, oriental bittersweet (Celastrus orbiculata),
cascades down through the trees and shrubs. I recommend that the entire
border of non-native, dying, woody vegetation be removed and replanted
with native vegetation.
Recommended species for revegetation: The following plant list was
prepared with consideration to the following factors: 1) the plants must
be able to survive harsh environmental conditions such as exposure to salt
spray, cold wind, winter ice, and sand blow-up; 2) the plants should be
native to northeastern United States; 3) the plants should be
A-45
aesthetically pleasing (ie., producing flowers, colorful berries, autumn
leaf color, etc.)., and should complement the existing native vegetation;
and 4) the plant species should be commercially available. The following
list of plant species are recommended for revegetation (although not all
of the listed species need be included in the final landscape plan; often, a
simple landscape design is more successful than a complex and elaborate
one):

Wildlife Inventory and Analysis
Cross Sound Ferry Project
Orient Point, New York
by Jeremy J. Hatch, Ph.D.
September 12, 1997
A-52
CROSS SOUND FERRY, ORIENT POINT: WILDLIFE
II.2.0 TERRESTRIAL AND AOUATIC ECOLOGY: EXISTINONDITIONS
2.a) Existing Wildlife Invento
The project site was visited during daylight hours on 27 and 28 July, 1997. I walked over
the site, with binoculars, observing birds and other wildlife I turned over logs etc, but did not
attempt any trapping. I also visited nearby areas, including the shoreline, the County Park, and
Orient Beach State Park. On the basis of these observations and after consulting Sommers and
Alfieri (1997), Andrle and Carroll (198 8) and the NY Natural Heritage Program, I concluded that
additional visits (e.g. at other seasons) would not be necessary
It was immediately apparent that the project site is not in a natural state, is bounded on all
sides by severely modified habitats, and shows little prospect of significant wildlife value These
tentative conclusions were supported by subsequent examination. The site is dominated by weedy
vegetation with significant areas of bare ground on which timbers are stored. To the SW
(compass directions approximate) it abuts an existing parking lot; to the SE (ocean side) is a heap
of beach gravel (to a non-specialist's eye this appears to be clean spoil) To the NE is a line of
non-native conifers and mown non-native grass. To the NW, across a road, are houses
surrounded by gardens/yards Beyond the houses is abandoned farmland covered with scrubby
vegetation, much of it non-native, that comprises a County Park.
Species observed at site
During these visits the following species were recorded 7 birds and 3 mammals
Birds
(The list includes those species observed feeding or resting; but excludes remote
sightings of species unaffected by the proposed development, such as Cormorants,
Mallards)
The status codes are- M=Migrant (present in breeding season) R= resident,
B=probably nested at the site (others listed probably nested nearby)
Sp cies Status
Barn Swallow Hirundo rustica M
American Crow Corvus brachyrhynchos R
Gray Catbird Dumetella carolinesis MB
European Starling Sturnus vulgaris R
American Goldfinch Carduelis tristis R
Song Sparrow Melospiza melodia R B
House Sparrow Passer domesticus R
A-53
Mammals
White-tailed Deer Odocoileus virginianus
Rabbit Sylvilagus Sp.
Cat Felis catus, possibly feral, likely predator
Reptiles and.Aml2hibians
None recorded
Additional species expected
Numerous additional species of birds are likely to occur in small numbers, especially
during migration, but the area does not constitute a significant resource for transients. Breeding
birds in this northernmost tip of Long Island listed by Andrle& Carroll (1988) include about 61
species of land-birds (identified as confirmed or probable breeders). About half of these could
eventually occur at the project site in small numbers during the breeding season if the site were
left untouched and successional changes in the vegetation continued. None of these are listed
species, or otherwise notably rare on Long Island. Some of the more likely species are:
House Finch Carpodacus mexicanus R
Common Grackle Quiscalus quiscula M
Rufous-sided Towhee Pipilo erthrophthalmus M
Northern Cardinal Cardinalis cardinalis R
Common Yellowthroat Geothlypis trichas M
Northern Mockingbird Mimus polyglottos R
American Robin Turdus migratorius M
Tufted Titmouse Parus bicolor R
Black-capped Chickadee Parus atricapillus R
Tree Swallow Tachycineta bicolor M
Eastern Kingbird Tyrannus tyrannus M
Mourning Dove Zenaida macroura R
During the fall and winter the site, in its present stage of vegetation, would be likely to
be visited by several other species, including the following, some of which would be seen more
reliably in the County Park.
White-throated Sparrow Zonotrichia albicollis
Savannah Sparrow Passerculus sandwichensis
Field Sparrow Spizella pusilla
Tree Sparrow Spizella arborea
Other mammals that probably occur on the site are several rodents, including:
A-54
White-footed Mouse Peromyscus leucopus
Meadow mole Microtus pennsylvanicus
and other widespread mammals.
b) Natural Heritage Program, DEC
Information about wildlife requested and received from the files of the New York Natural
Heritage Program included only 2 bird species, but also noted that the site is near to a designated
habitat. This area is Plum Gut, which is designated Significant Coastal Fish and Wildlife Habitat
and is part of the State's Coastal Management Program (CMP)
c) Designated Wildlife species
No designated species (endangered, threatened, or special concern) were identified on the
site Designated bird species that occur in the area include 2 beach-nesting birds and the Osprey
(Pandion haliaetus, status Threatened), however none have been reported nesting near the
project site (Sommers and Alfieri 1997)
Beach-nesting species of possible concern are Piping Plover (Charadrius melodus, status
Endangered) and Least Tern (Sterna antillarum, status Endangered). Both species nest at Orient
Beach (west of the Ferry Terminal and Marina) and not near the site. It is possible that these
species will move from their present nesting areas, so the significance of the project site as
potential nesting habitat needs to be addressed.
d) Habitat requirements of listed species
The most suitable breeding conditions for beach-nesting species include isolated beaches
free of predators In addition, Piping Plovers need immediate (walking) access to extensive inter-
tidal areas of fine sand The shore adjacent to the project site meets none of these requirements.
Thus, any increased activity resulting from the development will not affect these populations of
plovers or terns
Ospreys require nesting sites within convenient range of fishing areas. They nest on bare
trees or purpose-built nest-poles, and suitable nest-sites can limit populations. However, no
ospreys nest on or near the project site, and prospective locations for constructing nest-poles are
not in short supply in the area.
Designated Habitats
Plum Gut is located between Orient Point and Plum Island, about 2.4 km (1.5 miles) from
the project site The ferries travel through this area of turbulent tidal exchange. This area has
been designated because of its importance for marine fishes, serving as a foraging area and major
migration corridor (Information provided by NYS Department of State).
A-55
C.2 ANTICIPATED ROPACTS
Impact on existing wildlife
Impacts on wildlife will be minimal. Feeding and/or breeding habitat for a few common
birds and mammals will be eliminated, but no designated species will be affected.
Impact on designated habitat
No impact expected because the proposed work will not alter water movements in the
area, and no increases in ferry traffic are proposed.
III. MITIGATION MEASURES--NATURAL RESOURCES
C.1. Wildlife: No mitigation measures are specifically called-for. Plantings with native
vegetation would be appropriate. Also, it would be desirable to operate all aspects of the Ferry
Terminal so as to minimize nuisance birds (notably gulls, starlings and House Sparrows) and other
vermin that may interfere with other wildlife and thereby lower biodiversity. This means
eliminating all available food. (This suggestion is not a commentary on current operations).

New York State is divided into eight Air Quality Control Regions (AQCRs) based on
geographic locations. The site of the proposed action is located within Suffolk County,
which is within the New Jersey/New York/Connecticut Interstate Air Quality Control
Region.
The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation(NYSDEC),Division of
Air Resources, is the responsible State agency for monitoring and reporting on air quality
within New York State.
1. Meteorological Conditions Found On-Site and Vicinity
The project area is located at the eastern terminus of New York State Route 25 within the
Town of Southold. Route 25 terminates at the easternmost point of the North Fork on Long
Island. As such, there are effects on local meteorology caused by proximity to large bodies
of water. There are two effects on air quality as related to mobile source impacts due to the
local meteorology. Both of these tend to minimize impacts.
The location of the site, close to large bodies of water, has an effect on prevailing winds.
There exists in the project location stiff breezes off the water for the vast majority of the
time due to the unsheltered nature of the coastline. The wind speeds and atmospheric
instability serve to lessen the impact of vehicle emissions on pollutant concentrations.
Pollutant concentrations from emission sources are quickly reduced as pollutants are mixed
with large volumes of air.
A second effect due to location is the moderation in temperature due to the surrounding
waters. The water tends to dampen seasonal variations in temperature. As a result,
temperatures in the summer are lower than inland areas while winter temperatures are
higher due to heat evaporation from the water. Vehicle emissions are highest when
atmospheric temperatures are low. The temperatures in the winter, moderated by the
warming effects of the water,have the effect of reducing vehicle emissions as compared to
colder inland areas.
2. On-Site Ambient Air Quality
The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation maintains a network of
ambient air quality monitoring stations located throughout the State in each of the Ambient
Air Quality Control Regions in order to evaluate the attainment status of each region. The
closest air quality monitoring station to the project site is located in Babylon.

Currently, the whole of Suffolk County is, along with most of downstate New York,
classified as a severe non-attainment area for ozone. This can be defined as an area where
one-hour average concentrations were found to be in excess of 0.180 parts per million.
It should be noted that ozone is a secondary pollutant with respect to mobile sources.
Ozone is not emitted from vehicles but is a product of chemical reactions with other
pollutants present in the atmosphere. As such, the study of ozone concentrations leads to
a regional approach based on vehicle miles traveled in a large area like the New Jersey/New
York/Connecticut Interstate Air Quality Control Region and not on a project specific basis.
However,it is readily apparent that the provision of ferry service to Connecticut from Orient
leads to a lessening of VMT as compared to the automobile trips to Connecticut without the
ferry.
Suffolk County is designated in attainment for other criteria air pollutants designated as
such by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
3. Existing Air Quality Standards
As required by the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1970 and 1977, National Ambient Air
Quality Standards (NAAQS) have been established for six major "criteria" pollutants:
carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, ozone, particulates, sulfur oxides, and lead. These
standards are presented on Table 1,along with the corresponding New York State standards.
The"primary"standards have been established to protect the public health. The"secondary"
standards are intended to protect the nation's welfare and account for air pollutant effects
on soil, water, visibility, materials, vegetation, and other aspects of the general welfare.
The primary air pollutants generated by the proposed action are those associated with
transportation sources, primarily automobile traffic. An assessment of those criteria
pollutants associated with automobile emissions is provided below. Although Carbon
Monoxide is the primary pollutant associated with automobile emissions, those criteria
pollutants emitted in smaller quantities are also identified below with a brief discussion on
source apportionment.
a. Sulfur Dioxide (SO2)
The air quality in the vicinity of the project site is better than the Ambient Air Quality
Standards for SO2 and is presently defined as an "attainment" area for SO2. Over the
last few years the air quality trend shows an improvement in S02 levels.

Sulfur dioxide emissions produced from fuel combustion are related to the sulfur
content in the fuel. The lighter petroleum distillates such as gasoline have a very low
percentage of sulfur in comparison to distillate oils and other forms of fossil fuel such
as coal. Therefore, SO2 emissions are more commonly associated with industrial
boiler and power plant emissions as well as various chemical manufacturing processes
that use sulfur as a raw material. Sulfur dioxide is not a primary pollutant associated
with automobile emissions.
b. Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2)
The air quality in the vicinity of the project site is better than the Ambient Air Quality
Standards for NO2 and is presently defined as an "attainment" area for NO2.
Nitrogen dioxide emissions produced from fuel combustion are related to the nitrogen
content in the fuel as well as the combustion temperature. The lighter petroleum
distillates such as gasoline have a very low percentage of nitrogen in comparison to
distillate oils and other forms of fossil fuel such as coal. Therefore, as with SO2, NO2
emissions are more commonly associated with industrial boiler and power plant
emissions as well as various chemical manufacturing processes that use nitrogen as a
raw material. Nitrogen dioxide is not a primary pollutant associated with automobile
emissions.
c. Particulates
On July 31, 1987, the EPA adopted new standards for particulate matter. Values for
Total Suspended Particulates (TSP) were replaced with new inhaleable particulate
matter standards (PM 10) pertaining to small particles, less than 10 microns in size,
which are though to be responsible for adverse health effects.
Inhalable particulates are monitored at the Babylon monitoring site. The monitoring
data from this site indicates no exceedences of the 24 hour or 12 month averaging
period NAAQS.
d. Lead (Pb)
The air quality in the vicinity of the project site is better than the National Ambient Air
Quality Standards for Pb and is currently defined as an"attainment" area for Pb. While
Disk #390, Cross sound Ferry
File: Air\Existing Condition
A-67
data on lead is not collected at the Babylon monitoring site, it is collected at the station
in Eisenhower Park. Over the last few years the air quality trend shows a major
improvement, with annual Pb levels decreasing from .98 ppm in 1977 to .04 ppm in
1988. The maximum 90 day concentrations decreased from .60 ppm in 1983 to .07
ppm in 1988 to .03 ppm in 1992.
Although elevated ambient Pb concentrations have been attributed to automobile
emissions in the past,with the banning of the manufacture of lead fueled automobiles
in the 1970's, automobile emissions are no longer considered a primary source of
ambient airborne lead. This can be demonstrated by the large decrease in ambient Pb
concentrations once the ban went into effect.
e. Ozone (03)
The air quality in the entire Metropolitan Air Quality Control Region does not meet the
National Ambient Air Quality Standards for 03 and is presently defined as a "non-
attainment" area for 03. Ozone concentrations are monitored in Babylon. The 1992
monitoring results indicate that even the second highest 1 hour average (.126 ppm)
exceeds the AAQS of.l2ppm.
Unlike the other pollutants, ozone is not a combustion byproduct but is a secondary
pollutant produced by a photochemical process during periods of strong solar radiation.
Hydrocarbons,which are produced by incomplete fuel combustion act as a catalyst in
the production of 03 and are thus considered precursors to the formation of 03.
Ozone non-attainment is a regional problem,with the majority of the northeast in non-
compliance with the national standards. The difficulty in identifying and regulating
major sources is that 03 production can take place a large distance from the source and
the level of impact from any individual source cannot be quantified through present
modeling techniques, but must be reviewed through regional planning strategies.
Therefore, the role of transportation sources in the regional 03 attainment status is
evaluated by the regulatory agencies through regional planning strategies. All major
projects constructed in areas where regional planning strategies are in place must
therefore comply with the goals of the regional plan.
f. Carbon Monoxide (CO)
Suffolk County is presently designated as an attainment area for CO.
Disk #390, Cross sound Ferry
File: Air\Existing Condition
A-68
Carbon Monoxide emissions produced from fuel combustion are related to the
efficiency of the combustion process and not the fuel itself,except however,some fuels
are more easily combusted. Automobiles play a major role in ambient CO
concentrations due to the close proximity of the source to the breathing zone which
minimizes the dilution effect of the atmosphere. Carbon Monoxide is the primary
pollutant associated with automobile emissions and methods to quantify the level of
impact on the local air quality have been developed and are widely in use.

Specific details relating to the traffic characteristics of the proposed action are contained in
the report titled Traffic Impact Study, Cross Sound Ferry, September 1997, prepared by
Dunn Engineering Associates.
As stated in the Traffic Impact Study, the growth in traffic levels on Route 25 due to the
proposed action are very low when compared to existing levels. The proposed action is to
construct a 155 space parking lot to handle peak periods of passenger-only use of the ferry
service. As shown in the Traffic Impact Study, the additional 155 parking spaces are
anticipated to be used in the summer peak period and will only accommodate additional
ferry usage on a limited number of ferry runs per week.
There is a direct correlation between CO concentrations due to automobile traffic volumes.
As volume increases due to the proposed action are expected to be very small, the impacts
on CO concentrations in the study area are expected to be insignificant. The study area is
not in exceedence of either the 1-hour or 8-hour NAAQS for CO and is expected to remain
as such with insignificant increases in CO levels.
Reducing the CO air quality impacts further is the effect of the limited time period over
which the traffic arriving and departing from the ferry occurs. The NAAQS for CO
includes a 1-hour average maximum concentration of 35 ppm and an 8-hour average
maximum concentration of 9 ppm. The 1-hour standard is rarely exceeded due to
automobile traffic and the 8-hour standard is of greater concern. The short duration nature
of the traffic minimizes its effect on an 8-hour average concentration because the emission
source is not present for an extended period of time. In addition, the highest volumes are
expected to occur during warm weather periods as that is when the greatest amount of ferry
activity occurs. This contrasts with the worst case conditions for the production of CO in
automobiles. As a characteristic of the process by which burning fuel creates CO due to
automobiles, cold weather and cold engines cause significantly higher rates of CO
emissions from motor vehicles. Traditional analysis of CO concentrations influenced by
automobile traffic are performed to simulate worst case cold weather conditions for this
reason.
As stated previously, Suffolk County is designated as a non-attainment area for ozone.
Ozone as a secondary pollutant cannot be examined on a project specific basis but is
handled on a regional level. Ozone production has a correlation to vehicle miles traveled
(VMT)within a regional area. The expansion of the parking lot will reduce vehicle miles
traveled by allowing additional ferry trips and reducing the number of longer automobile
Disk #390, Cross Sound Ferry
File: Air\Anticipated Impact
A-71
trips to Connecticut. Reduction in VMT translates into positive impacts on ozone
concentration.
Based on the foregoing, there is expected to be no significant impact on air quality in the
study area due to the proposed action. Traffic increases are expected to be negligible and
several factors act to mitigate CO production. In addition, lower VMT due to additional
ferry trips will decrease production of ozone.

SUMMARY
Disk #390, Cross Sound Ferry
File: Air:\Cover
A-73
The location of the proposed project is within the New Jersey/New York/Connecticut
Interstate Air Quality Control Region. Suffolk County is designated as an attainment area
for carbon monoxide (CO) but a non-attainment area for ozone.
The traffic increases due to the proposed action are minor when compared to background
volumes in the study area. Any increases in CO concentrations are expected to be
insignificant. Local meteorological conditions such as winds and temperature will act to
further mitigate impacts. No contravention of the National Ambient Air Quality Standards
(NAAQS) for CO are expected. The expansion of the parking lot and associated increase
in ferry trips will have a positive impact on ozone production. Ozone is a regional problem
related to vehicles miles traveled (VMT). Additional ferry trips will reduce VMT by
eliminating auto trips to Connecticut, resulting in lower ozone production.
Based on the foregoing, there is expected to be no significant impact on air quality in the
study area due to the proposed action.

VISUAL RESOURCE ASSESSMENT
The following Visual Resource Assessment is based upon on a methodology
developed in 1976 by Jones and Jones, Landscape Architects, Seattle, Washington, for the
Federal Highway Administration. This methodology has been used extensively by the
state highway agencies for the assessment and determination of the visual impacts of
roadway projects throughout the country. Due to the SEQR's recommended visual
assessment procedures, the methodology mentioned above has been slightly modified.
A visual impact can be defined as the degree of change in visual resources and
viewers responses to those resources caused by a development project. The change in
visual resources must be measured both qualitatively and quantitatively in order to
properly assess the degree of visual impact. An appendix is attached which defines some
of the terminology and techniques used in this report.
The following is a brief description of the visual assessment procedure:
Existing Visual Environment - Qualitative change is first assessed by determining the
existing visual character and quality of the surrounding area. The interrelationships of the
visual elements of fine, form, color and texture are examined to determine the visual
character in terms of dominance, scale, diversity and continuity.
Visual quality of the surrounding area is assessed using three criteria: vividness,
intactness and unity. The visual character and visual quality are used to define the existing
visual environment of the surrounding area.
Proposed Project - The project is described on order to assess the change in visual
resource
A-76
Views of the Proposed Site - In order to assess the quantitative change in visual
resources and viewer response, the views of the site are studied to determine how the
change is seen be whom and how many people The types and numbers of viewers are
considered in assessing viewer response
Mitigation Measures - Actions are proposed and described that will lessen the visual
impact of the proposed project.
Significance of Visual Impact - In order to determine the significance or importance of
the visual impacts of the proposed project, each view of the project is assessed to
determine the visual compatibility of the view with the surrounding area in terms of the
visual elements and visual character mentioned above The change in visual quality is also
assessed. The viewer groups and the context of the view form the viewing locations are
studied to determine the change in viewer response. All of these categories are considered
to determine the significance of the visual impact.
Existing Visual Environment
The general visual environment of the surrounding area is characterized by general
flat, non- wooded terrain interrupted by water and shoreline vegetation, interspersed with
local highway structures, residential, agricultural and commercial use The project site has
been disturbed with existing vegetation located on its east and north boundaries This
marine/upland landform's color and texture is interrupted by the structures of the existing
parking areas, buildings, ferry docks and residential structures adjacent to the site. The
most dominant visual intrusions in the landscape is the existing ferry operation with the
parking lots, buildings and ferry dock.
A-77
Overall visual quality if the surrounding area can be described as low to medium.
The vividness of the area is medium to high as result of the combination of the Gardiner's
Bay and existing vegetation. However the intactness and unity are diminished by the
number of man-made structures.
Proposed Project - The project consists of the construction of a gravel parking area with
the appropriate lighting adjacent to an existing ferry facility. The site will be relandscaped
with indigenous, native plant species with buffers located along the north, east and south
side of the project site.
Views of the Proposed Site - There are two main views of the proposed site which have
been determined to be significant are from the existing road (Route 25) and Gardiner's
Bay.
Route 25 - The site is one parcel removed from Route 25. The physical roadway ends at
the ferry terminal and/an existing parking lot and commercial building separate the
proposed site from the roadway. Residential driveways extend easterly from Route 25
which are adjacent to the northerly border of the site. Because of the existence of
evergreen and deciduous vegetation and the proposed enhancement of the existing buffer
with native, indigenous plant material. The degree of unity and intactness will be
increased with the increased buffer planting as well as the proposed planting within the
proposed parking field.
Gardiner's Bav - The site fronts of Gardiners Bay and is clearly visible from boaters
traveling in a generally east west direction. The view will be a distant view with the
duration of the view relative to the speed of the viewer Because of the proposed
A-78
maritime planting scheme to be included along with the proposed parking field, the project
will increase the degree of unity and intactness_
Character of Communitv - As stated above, the surrounding area consists of residential,
commercial, governmental and agricultural uses On the northerly boundary, three
existing residences are buffered by existing evergreen and deciduous vegetation. This
buffer area establishes the visual unity and intactness of the area. The proposed buffer on
the northen border of the project will increase that degree of unity and intactness of the
surrounding area. Due to the commercial uses to the west of the project site, the
introduction of the large planted island near the western border of the proposed site will
provide again an increase in the unity and intactness of the travelers views
Site Lighting - Because of the existing use of the site adjacent to the project site, there is
an existing high level of light on the site for security and safety reasons The proposed
project includes the placement of light standards within the proposed parking area for
security and safety The light standards will be a maximum of 14 feet tall with single
fixtures arranged to provide a sufficient amount of light for pedestrian safety The
proposed light fixture will have baffles which will direct the light downward and keep any
light from spilling on the neighboring properties (See Appendix "L" for more details)
IN'itigation Measures
1. The project includes the use of significant landscape buffer area on the periphery of the
site between the adjoining property increasing the unity and intactness of the view from
' the exterior of the site
2 The creation of landscape island within the parking area soften and filter the view of
the parked cars from within the ferry facility
A-79
3. The use of native, indigenous plant material throughout the site will provide similar
texture and color as the surrounding landscape there by increasing the degree of unity
and intactness.
4. The use of crushed stone as the paving surface will more closely mimic the texture
and color of the shoreline, thereby further increasing the degree of unity and intactness
of the views of the project site
5. The parking area as shown is the minimal amount necessary for proper use and safety,
allowing for the minimal amount of land disturbance while providing for the greatest
amount of landscape buffers and islands possible.
6 The use of pedpstrian style light standards and light fixtures which will provide low
level of lighting which shall be adequate for pedestrian safety without encroachment
into the surrounding community
Significance of Visual Impact
The significance of the visual impacts from the site from the two different viewing
locations as well as the site lighting:
1 Route 25• The visual impact on the travelers on Route 25 will be reduced with the use
of landscape buffers around the project site. The landscaped islands within the parking
area will further reduce the visual impact of the use of the parking area.
2 Gardiner's Bay: The visual impact from Gardiner's Bay has the potential for
significance because of the recreational nature of the bay. The introduction of
maritime/upland vegetation between the shoreline and the water will increase the
degree of unity and intactness thereby reducing the visual impact of the project.
A-80
3 Site Liv,htin-g The visual impact of the site lighting on the surrounding area has a
potential for significance because of the commercial nature of the proposed use
However, the use of pedestrian scale light standards (14'height) and light fixtures
which direct the light downward will reduce the impact of the lighting so it will not be
significant
Summary of Visual Impact
The visual character of the area will change slightly with the placement of the
parking area and the installation of landscape buffers enhancing the existing vegetation
around the project site.
The visual quality of the area should not changed significantly The addition of the
landscape buffers on the perimeter and within the proposed parking area may slightly
improve the visual quality of the surrounding area.
Finally, the viewer response should not change The proposed project will not
have significantly affect the view from the existing roadways or from the surrounding
surface waters.
In summary, the proposed project should not have a significant visual impact upon
the surrounding area.
A-81
LANDSCAPE DESIGN NARRATIVE
The proposed landscape treatment for the project has been developed to address
community needs as well as those of the project sponsors. The existing plant material will
be analyzed to determine the appropriateness of the species with any non-native shrub and
vine species being removed for the installation of the proposed plants. To reduce the
visual impact, native plant material has been selected to provide harmony with the
surrounding area. Buffer plantings on the periphery of the project will be added to the
existing plant materia(to serve as a visual barrier between the neighbors and the parking
area. The use of landscaped islands within the proposed project soften the views of the
site The utilization of native plant material will add to the diversity of the wildlife habitat
while reducing the need for extensive maintenance and care.
As with other projects of this size, the maintenance of the plant material and the
landscape may become burdensome. The proposed use of organic compost as a soil
amendment and mulch will provide continuous nutrients for the plant material, increasing
the survivability of the new plantings. Irrigation will be provided for the first two growing
seasons in the form of"drip irrigation" to further insure the transition of the plants from
the nursery to the project site. It is the design intent to emulate the existing native habitat
as closely as possible while providing a growth-inducing environment for the proposed
plant material.

1. Inventory/description of historic areas and/or structures located on or in the
proximity of the project site.
The cultural resource assessment of the Cross Sound Ferry project consists of an
archival search and archaeological survey. The archival search includes examination of state
and local archaeological site and architectural files, historic maps, and a literature review.
Results of the archival search are described below, while those from the archaeological
survey are presented in the next section.
No prehistoric archaeological sites within one mile of the project area were
documented in the files of the Suffolk County Archaeological Association, the Institute for
Long Island Archaeology, the New York State Museum or the State Historic Preservation
Office in Albany. One unstudied historic period archaeological site is located within an one
mile radius, the site of Orient Point Inn and Revolutionary Fort (#A10310.0007). This
archaeological site includes remains associated with Orient Point Inn, and is located directly
across Main Road (NY 25) from the entrance to the ferry terminal. The oldest part of the
inn was built possibly as early as 1672, though it was extensively remodeled in subsequent
centuries. The structure was demolished in 1985 after years of vandalism and neglect. No
formal archaeological investigation has been conducted on the site.
The site files of the State Historic Preservation Office, the Town of Southold Register
of Designated Landmarks, and the Society for the Preservation of Long Island Antiquities
document three inventoried properties within the immediate vicinity of the project area,
including the Orient Point Ferry complex (#A10310.001040), the late eighteenth century mile
marker on the grounds of the Ferry complex ("30 M Suff C.H.," #A10310.001039), and
"Point Farm" (#A10310.001041) across from the area of proposed impact on the north side
of the dirt extension of Main Road.
Additionally, State files indicate that one structure is eligible for listing on the
National Register of Historic Places, the Orient Point Lighthouse, situated off the mainland,
more than one mile east of the project area. A search through the National Park Service
computerized National Register database produced two listed properties in Orient: the Orient
Historic District (west of the project area along NY 25) and the Terry-Mulford House. Both
of these properties are located more than one mile to the west of the Cross Sound Ferry.

2. Staize I archaeological survey.
The results of a Stage I cultural resource assessment of the Cross Sound Ferry
property in Orient Point, Town of Southold, Suffolk County, New York are presented below.
The cultural resource assessment includes an archival search (Stage IA) and archaeological
survey (Stage IB).
ARCHIVAL RESEARCH.
An evaluation of the natural and cultural history of an area is essential to
understanding past land use, as well as determining the likelihood of encountering prehistoric
or historic archaeological sites. Human groups locate their settlements in order to best take
advantage of the characteristics of the natural and social landscape. Thus, knowledge of a
region's history and environmental features is crucial in reconstructing past behavior and
assessing the probability of locating evidence of early activities.
A search of the available published records and site files was undertaken to determine
if any previous studies had documented archaeological remains in, or in the vicinity of, the
project area. Pertinent historical records such as maps, photographs, and descriptive
histories were examined to obtain information on past activities in the study parcel. This
investigation provided data on previous land owners, structures, and the types of land use
practices that were employed.
Natural and Cultural History.
Environmental Setting. Orient Point is the easternmost tip of the north fork of Long
Island (Figures 1 and 2). The peninsula was formed by the Harbor Hill recessional moraine.
Soils in the project area are classified as Haven loam, 0-2% slopes (Warner et al. 1975).
These are deep, well-drained, medium-textured soils, and topography is generally flat to
slightly undulating. Elevation above sea level in the project area is ten feet (three meters).
There are no surface fresh water sources within or immediately adjacent to the Cross
Sound Ferry property. The area of proposed impact is separated from Gardiners Bay to the
south by a large dredge spoil pile and sandy beach.
Currently, the project area is an open lot with low volunteer vegetation, with small to
medium-sized trees along the northwest and northeast lot boundaries (as seen in the 1996
aerial photograph). Soil disturbance (dredge spoil heaps, tall berms, grading, etc.) is evident
over approximately 30% of the project area. In the past, this environment could have
supported a wild fruit, berry, and nut harvest. Faunal resources in the vicinity potentially
included fin- and shellfish, waterfowl, and a variety of terrestrial birds and mammals.

Prehistoric Period. The floral and faunal resources mentioned above were most
likely exploited by prehistoric Native American groups living in the area prior to European
colonization. However, a search of state and local prehistoric site files reveals a paucity of
data for this section of eastern Long Island. There are no recorded prehistoric sites within a
one mile radius of the Cross Sound Ferry property; the closest known site is the Eagles Neck
Point site, 1.6 miles (2.6 kilometers) to the southwest (Johannemann and Schroeder n.d.).
Nearly all of the prehistoric sites recorded for the hamlets of Orient and Orient Point
are located along the small embayments on the south shore of the North Fork, such as
Hallocks Bay and Long Beach Bay, and along Orient Harbor, all to the west of the Cross
Sound Ferry. At least fourteen prehistoric sites have been explored in Orient; almost all
were found on the shores of small embayments. Among these sites are those described by
local amateur archaeologist Roy Latham as belonging to the "Orient Focus" of the Terminal
Archaic period (Latham 1962, 1964).
Embayments and their feeder streams would have provided fresh water along with a
variety of animal, vegetal, and mineral resources for food, shelter, and raw materials for
tools. In comparison, the project area would have offered significantly fewer resources.
Therefore, sensitivity for the presence for prehistoric remains within the project area is
moderate to low. Expected site types for the vicinity of the Cross Sound Ferry property
include manifestations of short-term or sporadic use, such as occasional hunting.
Historic Period. Orient Point is a hamlet within the Town of Southold, a community
founded by a small group of Puritans from the New Haven colony around 1640. Southold
claims to be the oldest English settlement in New York State, though this has been
challenged by the Town of Southampton (Turano 1994:89). The lands known to the Native
Americans as Yennecock (present-day Southold, Thompson 1839) were acquired by the
English colonists in a series of deeds dating prior to 1640. While 1640 does appear to be the
date of initial settlement by an organized colonizing party, some historians cite evidence for
earlier utilization of Southold lands, possibly as early as 1637 (Hall 1975, Goodrich 1984,
Turano 1994).
Orient, known as Oysterponds until 1836, was settled in 1661 when the area was
divided into forty 50 acre lots (Cottral 1959:7). Orient Point, including the project area, was
used for common pasturage. Access was via the King's Highway (modern Main Road, New
York State Route 25) and by boat. During the eighteenth century, Orient Harbor was busy
with commercial water traffic, though the American Revolution virtually eliminated this
industry.
At the start of the Revolution, the local patriots constructed a small fort on Point
Farm, on the Sound side of Orient Point (Cottral 1959:9). This fort was not effective in
warding off British attacks, and British troops were frequently quartered at the Orient Point
Inn (formerly located northwest of the project area). Benedict Arnold used the Inn as a
staging ground for attacks on Connecticut (Cottral 1959:9-10).
A-113
Orient Point was desolate following the war, as several families had fled to
Connecticut, and abandoned farms had been laid to waste. There was little chance to rebuild
Orient's maritime trade before the War of 1812 threatened waterborne commerce. Once
more, local residents fortified Orient Point, though British warships did minimal damage
along the shore (Hazelton 1925:700). Orient Harbor never regained its once-thriving
maritime industry. However, during the nineteenth century, packet ships (first under sail,
and later steam) began regular service from Orient Point to New London and other southern
New England ports. By 1874, regular steamship service operated from the dock of what is
now the Cross Sound Ferry (Bayles 1874:380).
The project area was used for common pasture land in the seventeenth and eighteenth
centuries (Cottral 1959). By 1672, a structure was built (later incorporated into the Orient
Point Inn) northwest of the project area. This property was purchased by Jeremiah Vail in
1687, and it remained in the Vail family as Point Farm for the next century (Munsell
1882:31). When the Latham family acquired Point Farm in 1798, it consisted of
approximately 1,000 acres, and possibly included the project area. However, a survey of
historic maps (e.g., Burr 1829, Beers 1873, Hyde 1896) indicates that no structures were
present within the area of proposed impact. The house now standing opposite the project
area is the Latham House, moved to point farm around 1865. Expected historic
archaeological site types within the project area include refuse deposits associated with Point
Farm.
ARCHAEOLOGICAL RESEARCH.
A two phase survey design was employed to search for archaeological remains on the
Cross Sound Ferry property. Similar survey designs, used in other areas of Long Island,
have proven successful in detecting prehistoric and historic sites. The initial phase of the
survey involved a surface reconnaissance and inspection intended to locate large and easily
visible remains. The second phase entailed subsurface testing.
Field Inspection and Surface Survey.
An initial surface reconnaissance was conducted on May 19, 1997. The entire parcel
was walked over, with special attention given to examining exposed soil for artifacts or other
surface manifestations of past cultural activity. Vegetation patterns and topographic features
which might provide insight into previous land use were observed. Areas of extensive soil
disturbance were also noted. Despite fair to good surface visibility, no prehistoric or historic
artifacts or cultural features were identified in the project area. Photographs showing current
field conditions are presented below.

Subsurface Testing.
The second phase of the field survey consisted of the excavation of shovel test pits
(STPs) designed to detect the presence of cultural remains beneath the ground surface. The
area of proposed impact measures approximately 1.4 acres (0.57 hectare) (Figure 3).
However, approximately 30% of this area was not subject to subsurface testing because of
extensive soil disturbance (including dredge spoil mounds, a cut dirt road, and tall soil
berms). The remaining 70% (0.98 acre [0.40 hectare]) of the property was tested.
A total of 15 STPs was excavated on the Cross Sound Ferry property (Figure 3). In
general, STPs are located 20 meters (66 feet) apart along six rows which are also 20 meters
apart. However, the four pits along the northwestern boundary of the project area (STPs 1
through 4) were excavated 10 meters (33 feet) apart because of the higher likelihood at this
location for finding artifacts associated with the Orient Point Inn which formerly stood
nearby, across Main Road.
Shovel test pits have a diameter of approximately 30 centimeters (12 inches). All
STPs were dug well into the B2 subsoil, typically over 50 centimeters (20 inches) below the
present ground surface. The soil from each test unit was screened through six millimeter
(0.25 inch) wire mesh to aid in the identification and recovery of cultural materials. All
field records, including test pit specifics and photograph negatives, are curated at the State
University of New York at Stony Brook.
Results. The data recorded in the field for each shovel test pit are presented in Table
1, below. All opening and closing depths on Table 1 are given in centimeters below ground
surface. Disturbed and plow zone soil horizons were encountered in all STPs excavated on
the Cross Sound Ferry property. No cultural material other than recent trash (bottle glass,
styrofoam cups) was recovered during subsurface testing.

SUMMARY OF STAGE I ARCHAEOLOGICAL SURVEY.
No prehistoric or historic artifacts or features were identified during the
archaeological investigation of the Cross Sound Ferry property at Orient Point. Therefore,
no further archaeological testing is recommended.
(B) HISTORIC/PREHISTORIC RESOURCES: ANTICIPATED IMPACT.
1. Impact on historic structures/areas identified on the State Register.
Surface inspection and subsurface testing in the area of proposed impact indicate that
there are no artifacts or features within the project area associated with the Orient Point Inn
archaeological site (#A10310.0007), the Orient Ferry complex (#A10310.001039 [mile
marker] and #A10310.001040), or with Point Farm (#A10310.001041).
Additionally, in terms of historical/architectural resources, the planned project will
have minimal visual impact. The area of proposed impact is currently an open lot bounded
along the northwest and northeast sides by dense vegetation, along the southeast side by a
dredge spoil pile, and along the southwest by a dirt road abutting the present parking area.
There will be no impact to structures associated with the Orient Ferry complex, including the
late eighteenth century mile marker and ferry terminal buildings. Because nearly all of the
existing vegetation in the northern section of the project area will be maintained, there will
be little visual impact to the houses on the north side of the dirt extension of Main Road,
including Point Farm.
2. Impact on historic structures/areas identified on the National Register.
No impact.
3. Impact on historic structures/areas identified by the Town and/or County.
No impact.
4. Impact on historic structures/areas identified by the Society for the Preservation of
Long Island Antiquities.
See #1, above.

III. MITIGATION MEASURES TO MINIMIZE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT.
CULTURAL RESOURCES.
B. HISTORIC ARCHAEOLOGICAL RESOURCES.
1. Preservation of portion of site for archaeological research.
No prehistoric or historic cultural remains were identified on the Cross Sound Ferry
property during the archaeological survey, and no further testing is recommended.
Therefore, there will be no impact to archaeological resources as a result of the proposed

CHAPTER 25
ORIENT POINT LIGHT, Orient Point, NY (1899)
Light List No.: 20135
Location: Latitude 41° 9.8' N
Longitude 72° 13.4' W
Height: 6»'
Range: 15 miles,Flashing White every 5 seconds,Hom
Lens: 190 mm, 2.03 amps
Automated: 1966
Orient Point Lighthouse (known affectionately as the "Coffee Pot" by
locals) is cirular-plan, cast-iron tower, on a concrete-filled, cast-iron foun-
dar,on. A beacon on the tip of Long Island since 1 S99, the light is painted
brown at the top of the tower and µh:te at the bottioom. Besides the light-
house, the site includes two ^.,:rap (stones thrown together without order
to prevent erosion) break--waters which form a protected approach south
of the tower, a concrete dock, and the riprap shoring which encircles the
foundation.
The lighthouse marks the western end of Plum Gut, a channel which
contiects Long Island Sound µ::h Gardiners Bay and points south, east
and west, and overlooks Plum Island to the east. Orient Point, so named
in 1836, because it was the mos: easterly tip of the North Fork peninsula
of Long Island, lies to the sou:.-west of the light. The meeting of waters
converging from several direct:ens produces violent and potentially dan-
gerous currents to the unwary in Plum Gut. Currents can be five to six
knots, and a mean chop de`el;rs µhen the wind is counter to the tidal
current. The µord gut refers is a narrow passage of water between two
larger bodies of µatcr. Thus. Pi.im Gut is a narrow passage of water
named after adjacent Plum Island..
Orient Point Lighthouse stands at one end of Oyster Pond Reef, a body
of rocks submerged under only some 10 feet of water and which extends
nearly one third the way across the Gut, while the channel in the Gut of-
fers depths of more than 100 ft-t:. Every summer, many yachts from Long
Island Sound and Nc%µ Englar� sail past this aid to mariners to rendez-
vous at Shelter Island. Greenper,, Montauk,Sag Harbor, and other excel-
lent harbors in the area.
Description of the Lighthouse
The shell of the foundation of the light is a cast-iron caisson 25 feet in
diameter and 32 feet tall, It rests directly upon the rocks of Oyster Pond Q p
Reef which was levelled to provide. a stable footing for the light.The cais- V l
son is made of curved cast-iron Fates µhich have flanges projecting into
the shell's interior Bolts thro.:,h these flanges hold the plates together.
The cast-iron sections were ;nade in New York City and brought to the
Orient Point Wharf Comnar� the New London Ferry now

docks)by sailing ship.A barge then floated the structure to the reef for as-
sembly at low tide. The caisson was then filled with concrete; a space in
the top of the shell was left unfilled to provide space for equipment and
supplies.
The tower rests directly upon this foundation. It takes the form of a
truncated cone. 24 feet tall,with diameters of 21' at the base and 18 feet at
the top. The circular watch deck surmounts the tower and in turn sup-
ports the circular lantern. The three stories within the tower held living
quarters for the crew in the days of manned operation.construction of the
tower walls resembles very closely that of the foundation,curved cast-iron
plates bolted together by internal flanges. The tower is lined with brick.
The brick lining is three feet thick at the bottom and tapers to a smaller
thickness in the upper stories.The windows and door openings of the first
two stories are presently fitted with steel plates to deter vandals. Four
round ports light the tower's third floor.
Galleries with railings are found at both the watch deck and lantern
levels.The lantern walls are cast-iron at the bottom and glazed over their
upper halves in a diagonal-lattice pattern with bronze muntins. the sheet
metal-covered lantern roof is pitched with a ventilator ball at its apex.In-
side the tower, a cast-iron stairway ascends around the periphery, sepa-
rated from the living areas by a wall of sheet iron.The stairs are set into
the brick lining of the tower.The watch deck features beaded-board walls.
No early illuminating equipment remains in the lantern, since the origi-
nal fourth order lens showed a fixed red light visible for 11Y. miles.It wa4
replaced by an electric lamp and a modern plastic lens when the light was
automated in 1966.
Orient Point Lighthouse retains its historical integrity virtually intact.
Besides the main structural components, the beacon still has such fea-
tures as the hoodmolds and gallery brackets which identify the light as a
product of a distinctive period, the late 19th century. Cracks in the foun-
dation which were repaired with patch plates and regrouting behind the
patches may have given instability in the footing of the light.As a result,
the structure, as every sailor knows, now lists about five degrees out of
plumb.
Keepers
N.A.Anderson,who was born in Norway,was appointed first keeper of
the light on October 20, 1899 at an annual salary of 5600 a year.He served
until 1919. His assistant, Daniel McDermott, bom in Ireland, was ap-
pointed on December 10, 1899 at an annual salary of 5450 a year.He later
resigned.At the turn of the century, lighthouses were considered too dan-
gerous for women. For example, Mrs. Anderson, wife of the first keeper,
roomed at Orient Point. During her husband's 20 years of service as keep-
er, some very cold winters occasionally formed great ice sheets around
the lighthouse, thus preventing boat passage and literally marooning him
from the mainland and his wife.

0. HISTORICAL AND ARCHITECTURAL IMPORTANCE:
Milestones were in use since the Roman times, or before.
They were used as travellers' guides to a specific destinat-
ion. The milestones along historic Kings Hwy. marked the.
distance to the County Court House in Riverhead. That so
many survive on the North Fork is remarkable.
These stongs-were restored by Mr. Archibald Young (according
to Otto Van Tuyle in 1966. ).

Introduction
Noise levels are measured in decibels (dB). As the human ear cannot perceive all
frequencies equally well, these units are adjusted to correspond to human hearing. This
adjusted unit, the A-weighted decibel (dBA), is the unit by which ambient noise is usually
measured.
A one decibel change in noise is the smallest change detectable by the human ear under ideal
laboratory conditions. A 3 decibel change,under normal conditions, is barely noticeable by
the average person and a 10 dB change is perceived as a doubling or halving in loudness.
Figure A illustrates typical noise levels of familiar activities. Since few sources produce
noise that is constant over time,parameters (called noise descriptors)that characterize noise
levels which vary over a period of time are needed. One method is to describe the
fluctuating noise heard over a specific time period as if it had been a steady, unchanging
sound. For this purpose, a descriptor called the equivalent sound level, Leq, can be
computed. The Leq is the constant sound level that, in a given time period (e.g., one hour,
Leq[1]), conveys the same sound energy as the actual time-varying sound.
Existing Condition
Much of the existing noise in the vicinity of the ferry operation is a result of some aspect of
the operation itself, whether from vehicles traveling to and from the ferry on Route 25 or
from activity within the existing ferry parking lots and on the queueing area for the auto
ferry. Traffic to and from other destinations in the vicinity also contribute to ambient noise
conditions, as do other noise sources such as wind, etc.
In order to establish ambient noise levels, noise readings were performed in the vicinity of
the two sensitive receptors in the study area, identified as the two residences on the north
side of Route 25 opposite the ferry property. These noise readings were performed using a
Metrosonic Model 307 noise dosimeter, which through internal circuitry provides noise
readings in the A-weighted scale. The readings were performed during the anticipated hours
of greatest impact of the project, identified in the Traffic section of this report as those times
when the high speed passenger ferry arrives at Orient from New London carrying its largest
volumes of passengers and when daytime activities which generate noise have subsided. As
these arriving passengers return to their vehicles, depart the parking lot closest to the
residences and drive west on Route 25 is the time when additional noise is most likely to be
generated. These instances occur at approximately 7:40 P.M. and 9:40 P.M.

Figure B presents the locations at which the readings were taken. The noise readings
obtained are presented in Table A. As can be seen, ambient Leq readings of 53 and 54 dBA
prevail during times of low activity at the ferry, and readings of 56 and 57 are common
during increased activity of the ferry operation. Noise sources associated with the ferry
identified during these times were car doors closing and vehicles departing from the parking
lot. The highest instantaneous noise occurrences,shown in the table as Lmax,were produced
by the ferry boats blowing their horns during arrival and departures. It should be noted that
insect noise in proximity to the noise meter contributed significantly to ambient levels.

Parking Lot Noise
As discussed in the Traffic section of this report, it is expected under worst case conditions
that the construction of the parking facility combined with the expected growth in ferry use
will result in an increase in demand on the third daily high speed ferry,which departs Orient
at 12:00 Noon. This is due to the lack of capacity on the second ferry, which limits its
growth, and the fact that parking capacity exists for the 10:00 A.M. ferry to accommodate
excess demand. It is further assumed that passengers destined for New London on the 12:00
Noon ferry would return to Orient on the 7:40 boat. Thus, the anticipated time of greatest
impact of the proposed action on the noise environment is during that time when the 7:40
ferry arrives in port, discharges its passengers and the passengers leave the ferry parking lot.
As can be seen from the noise readings taken for the existing conditions analysis, Leq noise
levels increase by two to three dBA during times of increased activity of the ferry operations.
This noise impact is generated by the existing operation, which is of considerably greater
magnitude than the expected increase due to the proposed action.
However, the location of the proposed parking lot is such that the activity would take place
closer to receptor#2 than at present time, thus an increase in Leq might be expected during
peak times at that location. However, this impact can be expected to be less than 3 dBA,
which would result in a barely perceptible noise impact due to parking lot activity.
Traffic Noise
As discussed, the proposed action will result in an increase in traffic volumes on Route 25
traveling to and from the ferry operation. However, in order for an increase in noise of 3
dBA to occur, a 100 percent increase in hourly traffic, or a 100 percent increase in hourly
truck traffic, or a 100 percent increase in the combination of car and truck traffic is
necessary. An increase in vehicular speeds of 15 mph would also result in a 3 dBA increase
in noise levels. Clearly, the proposed action will not result in nearly the increase in traffic
volumes required to cause this magnitude change in noise levels. Furthermore, since the
project would not have a significant effect on existing roadway operating conditions,
vehicles speeds in the study area are not expected to change significantly due to project
generated traffic. Also, the proposed action will not generate significant truck traffic. As
a result, neither of these two factors would affect a change in existing noise levels.

Construction Noise
The potential noise impact generated during construction activities at the project site would
depend on the phase of construction(site preparation, excavation, foundation, erection, and
finishing), the type and amount of construction equipment, and the percentage of time the
equipment operates over the work day. Excavation would tend to be the noisiest phase of
construction for this project. Noise levels would tend to decrease as other construction
activities proceed (see Table 3).

Table B
Typical Sound Levels at Construction Sites (leq, DBA)
Noise levels associated with project construction activities are expected to be less than 89
dBA at a distance of fifty (50) feet from the source. Since no proposed development will
take place within fifty feet of a sensitive receptor,the noise levels should be even lower than
this.
Noise levels at the two sensitive receptors would be less than those listed in Table B due to
their additional distance from the construction site. In addition,some further noise reduction
would be gained through the frame construction of the residences. It should be noted that
the higher nosie levels would occur in the initial stages of construction during the clearing

and excavation operations. These phases are generally completed relatively quickly, and
constitute a small percentage of the total construction time schedule.
Overall construction activity and noise will be a short-term impact. Mitigation measures will
be utilized during the construction has to keep noise impacts at a minimum and will include:
a. Construction equipment utilized at the site will be required by contract specifications
to have efficient intake and exhaust mufflers on internal combustion engines. Through
the use of efficient mufflers, noise levels will be kept to a minimum during the clearing
and grading phases of construction which are usually the worst case situations from a
noise standpoint.
b. Construction activity will be limited to daytime hours by contract specifications.
c. Shields or other physical barriers, such as berms of earth or soil stockpiles, will be used
to restricted the transmission of noise.
d. The erection of soundproof housing or enclosures will also be utilized for noise
producing machinery, particulary for situations where generators and/or compressors
are operated by prolonged time periods.

SUMMARY
Disk #390, Cross Sound Ferry
File: Noise:\Cover
A-162
Findings and conclusions based on the analysis and data presented in this report can be
summarized as follows:
1. The proposed action, expansion of the existing parking facility, in conjunction with
normal growth of traffic in the area and increase in ferry business, could be expected
to have a minor impact on noise conditions in the vicinity of the ferry operations
based on the worst case conservative assumptions presented in this report. Under
these conditions, a slight increase in noise due to parking lot activity could be
expected at receptor#2,the easternmost residence adjacent to the site. However, this
increase would likely be on the order of 3 dBA or less, which is barely perceptible.
2. Traffic generated by the ferry operation could also increase due to the proposed
action during some time periods,however,the magnitude of this change is not nearly
great enough to cause a perceptible noise impact.
3. Finally, construction of the parking lot will result in a short-term impact due to
construction activity. However, this noise impact is temporary in nature, and
mitigation measures will be utilized so as to keep noise impacts to a minimum.
4. Construction of an earth berm along the property line or a stockade-type fence would
further serve to minimize the impact of the parking lot related noise in the two
residences.

Dear Mr. Haje:
The Department of State has completed its evaluation of your Federal Consis-
tency Assessment Form and certification that the above proposed permit activity
complies with New York State's approved Coastal Management Program, and will be
conducted in a manner consistent with this program.
Pursuant to 15 CFR Section 930.63, and based upon the project information
submitted, the Department of State concurs with your consistency certification
subject to the following conditions:
1 . To prevent stormwater runoff from the parking area from directly enter-
ing coastal waters , a french drain or similar device shall be installed
along the landward edge of the proposed steel ramp. This drain or de-
vice shall laterally divert any stormwater runoff that reaches the ramp
from the parking area.
2. To protect the ramp and the intertidal beach in front of the ramp from
potential erosion-related damage , rip rap shall be placed at the toe
of the ramp along its entire waterward edge and along both sides of
the ramp for a distance of at least 15 feet from its waterward edge.
This concurrence is without prejudice to, and does not obviate the need to
obtain all other applicable licenses, permits, and approvals required under
existing State statutes.

RE: l 1
Dear 'IT\;� ,
A review has been made of your proposal to:
Location: ( �)
New York State Department of trivironmental Conservation has found the
Ipnrcel project to be:
Greater than 300' from inventoried tidal wetlands. ('7>> �1
Landward of a substantial man-made structure
greater than 103' in length constructed prior to September 20, 1977.
I Landward of 10' contour elevation above mean sea level on a gradual, nat-
ural slope.
Landward of topographical crest of bluff, cliff or dune in excess of 10
feet in elevation above mean sea level.
Therefore, no permit under Article 25 (Tidal Wetlando of the Environmental
Conservation Law) is required at this time since the current proposal is beyond
State mandated jurisdiction pursuant to this act. lloirever, any idditionnl work
or modifications to the project may require n permit. It is your responsibility
to notify this office, in writing, if such additional work of modifications are
contemplated.
Very truly yours,

Re: Police Protection/Service for the Cross Sound Ferry, Orient, Town of Southold
Dear Chief Conway:
As required by the Southold Town Planning Board, our office is preparing a Draft Environmental
Impact Statement (DEIS) for the Orient Point Ferry (Cross Sound Ferry Services Inc.) With
respect to several of the police-related issues that the Town wants addressed, I am requesting that
either you or your staff provide us with some background information.
As you may be aware, the owners of the Cross Sound Ferry wish to construct a 150 car parking
area (gravel surface) located adjacent to the existing in-use parking lots which are owned and
operated by the ferry. Upon reviewing the site plan application for the proposed parking area, the
Town issued a Positive Declaration which required the preparation of a DEIS The Town then
prepared a ten page Scoping Outline which defines all the issues the DEIS must address The
proposed projects relationship to police protection is one of the issues that the town wants us to
address.
I have enclosed the page from the Towns Scoping Outline which identifies exactly what police
issues the Town considers important with respect to the project site As you can see, the Town
want the DEIS to discuss the following:
"Police Protection-discuss level of public service being provided and include
description ofservice(ie. speed enforcement,parking, violations, accidents, etc)"
To simplify the above quoted passage, I offer you the following list of questions
• What Police services are considered necessary as a result of the ferries
existence at Orient? In other words, if the entire Ferry operation never existed,
would less services be necessary/provided to the residents of Orient?

it
• How often in the last five years has the Police Department been called to the
Ferry site to resolve a traffic, parking, accident or other dispute9
• Can Southold Town Police Officers issue parking violations to ferry patrons
that have parked on the shoulder of Route 25 due to lack of parking space on
the ferry property?
• In your opinion, would the construction and use of an additional 150 car
parking area at the ferry site cut down on the number of cars parked on the
shoulder of Route 25?
i
• In your opinion, would the construction and use of an additional 150 car
parking area at the ferry site contribute to an increase in crime at Orient or
result in the need for more police service in the Orient area?

To simplify the above quoted passage, I offer you the following list of questions
• My inventory of educational facilities at Orient only includes the Oysterponds

Dear Scott:
Your list covered all of the public and private recreational facilities in Orient, however,
YOU may want to include the Oysterponds Historical Society property, in the hamlet of
Orient, since they use the property for a variety of activities
The Town of Southold does not own, operate or manage any of the park or recreation
facilities you have ldentiied, therefore, I can not assess the impact of the ferry on the
use or quality of those facilities.
If you have any questions or need additional information on the above, please give me a
call.

Dear Mr. Dobriner:
I am in receipt of your request of my opinion on the impact the construction
of an additional parking facility at the ferry site would have on local park &
recreation facilities. I respectfully decline to answer your questionnaire for
two reasons. First, I live in East Patchogue and am not all that familiar with
the local area. Second, I feel that since I work for the Town of Southold as
recreation supervisor, it poses somewhat of a conflict of interest.
Thank you for your understanding regarding this matter.

LANDMARK PRESERVATION COMMISSION
Our Town's Landmark Preservation Commission was created by the Town
Board on January 1, 1983
The commission includes seven VOILInteer members, all having been appointed
for a set term by the Town Board. All members have a sincere interest in their
mission, each having unique expertise to make their individual and collective
contributions.
The commission's purpose Is clearly spelled out in the Torun Code Chapter 56.2,
which is namely to "rrs,r;r Sowhold To-,cu and o7viler, of places, sites, buildings and
sti-tictures m order to conserve, proteer and prc',erve such places, sites,structures and
buildings, thereby preserving the uuuluc character of Southold Town, which 70111 sub-
stantially improve property and commercial values in the t07un and make its hamlets
even better places in which to live,"
e
As provided by Tozun Code Chaptcr 56 5, the duties of the commission are to:
"1. Encourage preservation nflandl,urr{, through education. 2. Promote and encourage
historic awareness and p idicious corrccrrr fol designated landmarks."
One of three criteria is used to designate a town landmark:
1. The structure or building is architecturally unique.
2. A site where an historic event took place
3 A building or site associated with an historic personage.
The application for landmark status must be initiated by a property owner or
other members of the community who may sponsor a public landmark site.

earliest structure was only 11/2 story, and at some
point a second story was sandwiched between the
first floor and the roof. This structure is intimately
related to the Youngs-Guerlain-Coyle house with its

nteresting clues to the house's long history were
revealed during renovations and archaeological
excavations. It is now thought that the house may
date to as early as 1639 and it's speculated that in its
earliest years, the house may have been the headquar-
ters for a Massachusetts Bay Colony logging camp's
operations on the North Fork. Further attesting to the
early building date is the presence of White Oak
siding. White Oak was used less and less for anything
but structural members as the supply of this strong
Terry-Mid/ord lloase,c. 76,39
wood quickly diminished. Also found on the site was
lead used for 17th-century window caming, coins and
nearly 60,000 ceramic shards.
Land sale deeds dated 1805 describing the farm, when
superimposed on the 1838 coastal map,indicate the configuration of the farm, which included the house and
several outbuildings including two servant/slave quarter buildings.These two structures have been located by
a resistivity survey but neither has been excavated.In 1807,when Elisha Mulford II rebuilt the existing unstable
chimney stack,he apparently partook of the ancient English tradition of hiding an old boot and a smoked cat
in the wall of the parlor next to the fireplace.The original part of the house has never been electrified. It has
remained in the Terry family since 1713.The Terry-Mulford House is also designated as a National Landmark.

design of this house through elements such as
Sam
the Gothic lancet windows.This movement
emphasized eye-pleasing connections between archi-

became popular at this time, was intended as a place
for observing nature. Meanwhile,balloon framing,
millwork technology and industrial production meth-
ods evident here allowed carpenters a wider range of
design possibilities.As with many North Fork houses
of antiquity, a small cellar constructed of field stone
can be found under a portion of the house, suggesting
a previous dwelling on the site.

c.1755—Town of Southold,New York State,Suffolk County
_ Colonial postal rates were promulgated by distance.The 30 miles from
central Riverhead to Orient Point were precisely measured by Postmas-
ter General Benjamin Franklin himself,using a"weasel" device on his
carriage wheel.When one mile was measured off,the bell sounded to
--- stop the carriage and a stake was placed,later to be replaced by a stone
monument.In the Town of Southold,22 of the 24 monuments are still in
place on the"King's Highway",which included the Main Road,Bois-
seau Avenue and North Road: #7 Laurel; #9, #10, #11 Mattituck; #12,
#13, #14 Cutchogue;#15 Peconic(Franklinville); #16, #17, #18, #19
Southold; #20, #22 Greenport(Stirling); #23, #24, #25 East Marion; #26,
#27, #28, #29, #30 Orient.
The stones became important reference points as inns,taverns and other
places could be accurately located between or near a marker.Later,citi-
zens serving government had accurate points of reference as they were
paid according to the number of miles travelled.

As of 1661,the permanent population of Southold had stabilized to 51
families,each of whom had received four homesite acres and"rights"to
land as shareholders in all the undivided lands.Rights were given,from
one to seven,in proportion to financial and other contributions to the

METHODOLOGY
Data Management and Scale
The Suffolk County Planning Department's GIS was employed to link land use data with
Parcels shown on the Suffolk County Real Property tyTax Map.
['this GIS consists of ESRI
ARC/INFO GIS software running on a Data General Aviion 8500 dual processor UNIX server
with a HP 650C color inkjet plotter. Back up copies of all hard copy maps are archived plotter
output (GRA and HPG files) on 8mm tape in TAR format. To access digital land use maps on a
PC with ARC/VIEW requires 16 meg of main memory and 1 gig of disc memory.] Land use
data were collected at tax map scale. Although the scale of the Suffolk County Real Property
Tax Maps for the towns bordering the Peconic Bay System varies, it is typically 1" = 300'. The
existing land use display maps that accompany this report have been greatly reduced, i.e., the
scale of these maps (1" =2000') is an order of magnitude smaller than that of the tax maps.
However, tax map parcel boundaries were not altered in any way by GIS manipulation. This
preserved the sanctity of the parcel line work and land use data base. The extent to which small
parcels can be visually distinguished depends on the scale selected for GIS map plotting.
Land Use Classification System
Use of town tax assessor code data expedited the attainment of PEP land use inventory
objectives. These data sets were available in electronic format and keyed to Suffolk County tax
map parcels. They provided a starting point for the land use inventory work.
Aepared by Suffolk Coumy DMwuncru of Planning A-263 January 1997
Peconic Estuary Program Existing Land Use Inventory
Tax assessor codes are assigned to parcels for the purpose of raising revenue through real
property taxation. There are literally scores of codes assigned to ratable property. To facilitate
interpretation, the PEP land use methodology grouped these codes under the following 13
general land use categories that are commonly used for regional planning purposes: low density
residential, medium density residential, high density residential, commercial, industrial,
institutional, recreation and open space, agriculture, vacant, transportation, utilities, waste
handling and management, and surface waters. Table 1 shows the general land use categories
and the property type classification and ownership codes assigned to each category. The
groupings in this table do not necessarily reflect the divisions in the assessor's manual (New
York State Division of Equalization and Assessment 1991). The 13 general land use categories
are more suitable for characterizing community layout and function, determining land available
for development, estimating future population levels and preparing master plans. Each and every
parcel on the tax map was assigned to one (and only one) of the general categories.
Land Use Study Area Boundaries
A U.S. Geological Survey(USGS)map showing the boundaries of the groundwater
contributing area of the Peconic Estuary System on the north and south forks and Shelter Island,
as well as the boundaries of its constituent sub-watersheds, was used as the primary source of
information for defining the upland area subject to land use inventory and analysis (Christopher
E. Schubert pers. comm.). The groundwater divide was superimposed on the tax map base for
the Towns of Brookhaven, Riverhead, Southold, Shelter Island, Southampton and East

Hampton. The land use study area boundary was then drawn using a combination of tax map
parcel boundaries -primarily road right-of-ways-that approximated the location of the
groundwater divide. Care was taken to be inclusive of the upland area defined by the divide
lines. The resulting land use study area boundary lines in the towns are primarily linear and
angular, as opposed to curvilinear, since they mirror surveyed land parcel boundaries and
roadways. Parcel boundaries were not split in order to avoid the problem of changing the parcel
data base, which is indexed by tax map identification number.
U.S. Census maps showing census block boundaries were then used to delineate the
approximate location of sub-watershed boundaries in each of the towns. This source of
information was used to expedite the population analysis component of the PEP, which is
contained in a separate report(Suffolk County Dept. of Planning 1997). Care was taken to avoid
splitting block boundaries, i.e., sub-watershed boundaries were drawn to include entire Census
blocks.
A map of each town was prepared that shows the boundary of the land use study area and
the sub-watershed boundaries within same as determined above. Numerical land use acreage
data and population estimates are keyed to the areas delineated on the map set.
Land Use Inventory Process
The following is a brief listing of the steps in the process used for conducting the
inventory of existing land use.
''eoared by Suffolk County Deparmrenr of Planning A-270 January 1997
Peconic Estuary Program Existing Land Use Inventory
■ Using the GIS, combine tax map parcel line work with the three digit, tax assessor
property code data and prepare a coverage at tax map scale for each town showing 13
general land use category attributes based on grouped assessor code data and residential
density criteria.
■ Prepare large scale plots of all tax map sections located within the Peconic Estuary
watershed area in each township. These plots show the land use attribute code numbers
for the 13 general land use categories listed in Table 1, one of which is assigned to each
tax map parcel.
■ Verify parcel attribute codes via field inspection, aerial photo interpretation, use of Real
Property Tax Service Agency property data and owners list files, etc., and manually
correct same where necessary on the tax map section plots.
■ Correct the GIS data base.
■ Merge the tax map section sheets and prepare preliminary, color-coded GIS existing land
use maps for each township. Inspect and correct parcel line work and attribute codes,
where needed.
■ Plot final, color-coded existing land use maps at desired scale.
■ Use the GIS to tabulate acreage figures by general land use category,jurisdiction and sub-
watershed zone.
The steps in the process are conceptually simple. However,the level of effort required to
prepare usable GIS coverages, verify and correct land use codes, and produce an accurate parcel-
Prepued by Suffolk County De===offtming A-271 January 1997
Peconic Estuary Program Existing Land Use Inventory
specific land use data base was quite substantial given the extent of the Peconic Estuary
watershed, the magnitude and complexity of the data bases involved, the inconsistent quality of
the digitized tax map coverages among the towns, and the need to conduct extensive field
verification.
Land Use Classification Conventions
Experience gained with the initial phases of the land use inventory and field check
process resulted in the establishment of several conventions that were used to simplify and
expedite the work, and help assure that land use code attributes were being assigned in a
consistent manner by the several staff members involved. These conventions are summarized
below.
■ When more than one use was found to occur on a single parcel, the primary use of that
parcel was determined and assigned to that parcel. Primary use is based on the relative
intensity of the use in comparison with that of the other use(s) in question, with
consideration also given to the areal extent of the use on the parcel. Typical examples
follow:
- A 100-acre parcel is used for both residential and agricultural purposes. Crops
are grown on about 80 acres, 15 acres are in woodlands, and a house is located on
site. Even though the parcel accommodates three uses (including vacant), it is
assigned a classification of agriculture, since most of the parcel is dedicated to this
use.
Preoared by Suffolk County Depa=ent of planning January 1997
A-272
Peconic Estuary Program Existing Land Use Inventory
-A two-story structure is located on a 10,000 sq. ft. lot in the retail portion of a
central business district. A hardware store occupies the first story of the building
and the second floor is used for an apartment. While used for both commercial
and residential uses, this parcel is classified as commercial, given the relative
intensity of the uses in question and the prevailing nature of neighboring retail
uses.
-A country estate is located on an 18-acre parcel, some of which is wooded, with
the remainder used as pasture. This parcel is classified as low density residential,
given the fact that it falls within the density criteria of< 1 d.u./acre.
-A road right-of-way parcel traverses a bay, but the improved portion of the
parcel does not extend over the water. The entire parcel is classified as
transportation.
■ Dedicated common areas on tax map parcels in condominium/townhouse projects
were classified as recreation and open space, since such areas are not available for
development in the future. Small,privately owned parcels that are the sites for residential
structures in these projects were classified as high density residential .
■ Agricultural land that had reverted to old field habitat due to non-use was classified as
vacant. Actively cultivated lands and those recently left fallow were classified as
agriculture.
■ When structures on improved parcels are unoccupied, the parcels are not classified as
Pmpved by Suffolk Canny Depemnent of Palming A-273 January 1997
Peconic Estuary Program Existing Land Use Inventory
vacant. They are classified according to the type of structure present, i.e., commercial,
industrial, residential, etc.
■ Whether a parcel is publicly owned or privately owned does not necessarily determine
how that parcel is classified. For example,parcels classified as recreation and open
space can be owned by property owners associations, private conservation groups, or
private clubs, as well as public entities.
■ Privately owned, commercially oriented, intensive recreational activities, such as bowling
alleys and sports complexes, are classified as commercial.
■ All publicly owned parks and conservation lands, whether actively or passively used,
are classified as recreation and open space.
■ Parcels owned by the Suffolk County Water Authority were classified as utility,
regardless of whether the parcels were improved or not.
■ The existing zoning designation of a parcel is not a factor in how that parcel is classified
as to existing land use.
■ The number of residential structures on a parcel, as opposed to the number of dwelling
units, was used in conjunction with parcel acreage to determine density, and hence, the
classification of the parcel as low, medium or high density residential.
■ The context within which a parcel is located, i.e., the uses found on adjacent and
nearby parcels, can often help in making judgments in the field as to how to classify
that parcel.
PrMamd by Suffolk County Depament of Planning A-274 January 1997
Peconic Estuary Program Existing Land Use Inventory
■ Parcels that are adjacent to commercial uses in business districts and are used as
parking lots in connection with these uses were classified as commercial. Parcels
used for parking that are directly related to a nearby transportation use, e.g.,ferry
or railroad,were classified as transportation.
The tax map base shows property boundaries, and not geographical features,the extent of
various "surface covers" or datums. Hence,the boundary of a parcel located on the shoreline
may, or may not, coincide with the location of the land/sea interface. The apparent shoreline on
the existing land use maps,i.e.,the boundary between parcels classified as surface waters and
adjacent parcels classified as one of the 12 upland land use categories, should not be interpreted
as the water's edge or mean sea level, etc. Overlay of the tax map base on appropriate maps, such
as USGS topographic maps, can indicate the extent to which the shorelines replicate each other.
A lake or pond located within a larger tax map parcel will not be shown on the existing
land use map as surface waters. If the lake/pond is a separate parcel, i.e.,the shoreline is a
property boundary,then it will be classified and shown as surface waters on the map.
Existing Land Use Map Accuracy
The Existing Land Use maps series shows thousands of parcels, each assigned to a land
use category. In evaluating the accuracy of these maps, one has to consider two types of potential
error. The first type is judgment error,resulting in the assignment of the wrong classification
category to a particular parcel. The second type is attribute error, where the wrong classification
is assigned to a parcel in the GIS data base, and this error is not detected in review of preliminary
frepamd by Suffolk County Depacwm[off laming A-275 January 1997
Peconic Estuary Program Existing Land Use Inventory
maps. Given the extensive level of effort devoted to the PEP land use inventory, the staff is
confident that the incidence of both types of error is very low. Users of the Existing Land Use
map series and the acreage tabulations by land use category that are derived from the GIS data
base should be aware of the methodology employed, so that proper interpretations can be made.
In addition to being assigned to a land use category, each parcel of property was assigned
to a specific sub-watershed zone. All parcels assigned to a land use category, other than
transportation, lie entirely within a specific sub-watershed zone. The transportation category was
assigned to town-wide railroad and public right-of-ways that traverse sub-watershed zone
boundaries. In order to maintain the integrity of the tax parcel data base, transportation right-of-
ways were not segmented to conform to sub-watershed boundaries. As a result, the GIS was
only capable of calculating a town-wide PEP acreage figure for the transportation category.
Transportation acreage figures for each sub-watershed zone were estimated by multiplying the
town-wide PEP transportation acreage total by the percentage of town-wide PEP study area
acreage found in each sub-watershed zone. Since the parcels assigned to the other 12 land use
categories were entirely located within a sub-watershed zone, the acreage calculations generated
by the GIS for these categories did not have to be manually adjusted.
Further explanation may help to reduce confusion with respect to the differences between
preliminary maps showing uses determined by assessor codes and existing land use maps
prepared by using the land use methodology described herein. Each municipality can assign
assessor codes to parcels in different ways according to local practice. In almost all towns, it is
Prevred by Suffolk County Depa=cnt of Planning A-276 January 1997
Peconic Estuary Program Existing Land Use Inventory
evident that publicly owned parcels and other non-ratables often are not assigned any category.
In addition,the assessor code data sets vary greatly by town in the extent and frequency of
update. The use of this methodology and field verification assured comparability of inventory
results across the watershed and their accuracy and suitability for planning purposes.
Time Frame
The staff conducted the field verification of land use for the six towns in the PEP land use
study area in a sequential fashion over an 18 month period beginning in 1994. During the process
of GIS file correction and map preparation,changes in the use of a few major parcels were noted
after completion of field work. For all intents and purposes, the pattern of land uses as portrayed
on the Existing Land Use map for each of the six towns should be considered as representative of
1995 conditions. This"snapshot"view of land use is, of course, static and will not reflect those
incremental changes that have occurred as a result of more recent development activities.
