If approved , the project sponsor , Richmond Creak Associates , will create a 12 lot major subdivision for Lhn sale and construction of single family residential dwellings . Proposed improvements will include 3879 linear feet of roadway , a storm water management system incorporating a natural drainage pond and a public water supply system constructed through the extension of Greenport Water District . Said improvements will be constructed in conrormance with all applicable governmental regulations . Concerns include several potential adverse impacts . Said impacts are as rol_ lows : Impact on cultural resources , sanitary waste disposal , wetlands , farmland and open space preservation , traffic , storm water management , erosion of cr. iLical slope areas , aquatic/terrestrial habitat protection, impact on Richmond Creels water quality and impact on local community services . Mitig1-11- ic�n measures have been incorporated into the conceptual desiqn . These mitigation measures include : - i - -Cluster subdivision design which provides for reduced minimum lot area on the majority of the proposed residential plots in order to create 16 . 6 acres of open space separating lot improvement areas , bufferinq natural drainage ponds and pro- moting aesthetic values and wildlife habitat en- hancement . -Construction of a natural pond storm water management system to prevent overland flow, create wetland areas and provide diversity of habitat . -Assure comp] ianc-e with Suffolk County Dept . of Health Services specification for on site sanitary waSte di.Sposa < and wal ei: supply system. -Provide public water supply through connection to the Greenport Water District . I`rotnc t ion o c rit. icaI slope areas through proper location of residential dwellings . -Possible limitations on allowable ornamental lawn areas to be installed on individual lots . Said limitations will assist in maintaining groundwater c7u,i1 ity . -Construct all, improvements on waterfront lots in conformance with Article 25 of the N . Y. S.D. E.C. and preserve all, existing tidal wetland areas . -install 50 ' vegetative t;uffer area along Richmond Creek interface to enhance wildlife habitat , filter overland flow and screen structural improve- mart Ls . -Construct 2 subdivision access points to disperse traffic flow and minimize congestion on Wells Road . -Ensure documentation of cultural resources through on site supervision of approved archeologists during construction phases . Alternatives to the proposed action have been addressed in subsequent sections of this report . Said alternatives include alternate land uses such as multifamily and continued agricultural use . Alternate designs include standard grid layout , a reduction in density , no action alternatives as well as minor modifications of the project presently designed . Matters to be decided include : Town of Southold Planning Board Subdivision Approval. , 'Town of Southold Conservation Advisory Courtcii RrIviow , Suffolk County Dept . of health Services Article G and Article 12 permit applications , N . Y. S . Dept . of Envi-ronmental , iOn , ArLiclo 2.5 approval as well ._ Z_ as construction approval for the proposed public water supply. - 1 - DESCRIPTION UR PR0POSED AC'1ION The objective of the proposed project is to develop a 49 . 21 acre property by creating a 12 lot residential sub- division utilizing a cluster. design . Said design will incorporate 3879 linear feet of roadway constructed to Town of Southold specifications as well as a storm water management system that will include the installation of a natural pond recharge/retention basin . Proposed individual lots will range in area from 20 , 000 s . f . to 3 . 1 acres and will be serviced by a public water supply system developed through connection with the Greenport Water District . Electricity and telephone will be contained in an underground distribution system while sanitary waste disposal systems will be constructed to Suffolk County Department of Hea! Uh Services ' specifications and will include a septic tank with leaching pool construction for each individual lot . Reduced lot size enables the project sponsor to preserve approximately 15 . 3 acres ( 31% of project site) as open space to remain undeveloped in perpetuity . Said open space will buffer improvement areas creating sections of natural vegetation throughout the residential subdivision . Siqnificant wildlife habitat- and topographic slopes along Richmond Creek with erosion hazard potential and/or cultural resource significance will be included in the proposed open space areas or protected through the creation of vegvLaLi.ve huf nrs . The location and e\l -nt of this open space preserve has been developed in order to .separate dwelling units , preserve vegetation and increase the aesthetic values inherent on the site . The storm water retention basin will incorporate native vegetation in order to create natural environments and diversity of habitat . Groundwater recharge will be accomplished through pervious soil horizons surrounding the created pond/wetland edges . AF Wells Road is considered to be a secondary thorough- Care with adequate capacity for increased use , no traffic congestion is anticipated as a result of this action. (See traffic section ) however , the subdivision design incorporates two ingress/egress points which will disperse vehicles gen- erated by the subdivision construction by allowing direct access to both Wells Road and N . Y . S. Route 25 (Main Road ) . Market analysis of recent sales of new subdivision lots indicate a majority of the purchasers within the Southold area are contemplatinq construction of second/vacation or retirement homes . Therefore , it is anticipated that such seasonal or retirement else will generate tax revenues in excess of its public, service demands . Retired individuals would not place any financial demands on the existing education system nor will owners utilizirq the subject property as a secondary home . PUBLIC NEED FOR PROJECT The proposed Richmond Creel; Farris residential subdivision has been designed to satisfy the existing and growing demand for residential construction sites within Lonq Island ' s North Fork . The majority of said single family plots will be utilized as second/vacation homes purchased for summer and weekend use . Because said dwellings are not primary res- idences , it is anticipated that real property tax generation will exceed public service demands ( S(,e Real. Property Tax Resource Section ) . BACKGROUND AND HISTORY The regulatory review process involving the Richmond Creels Farms subdivision application has been in progress for a significant period of time . A brief summary of governmental actions are as follows : -June 15 , 1082. , Southold 'Town Planning Board grants preliminary approval for r. es.i.dentiat cluster subdivision based on 40 , 000 s . f . lot area . Kindly refer to Exhibit 1 , correspondence - Robert Tooker , Esq . , attorney to Hon . Bennett Orlowski , Chariman - Town of Southold Planning Board daLed April 1 , 1985 . Said correspondence confirms the right of the project sponsor to develop said property under a yield concept of 40 , 000 s . f . lot area . Additionally , said letter also suggests I.he appr(WLialeness of a subdivision design incorporating a cluster concept . -November_ 1. 8 , 1985 - Southold Town Planning Board pro- vides sketch map approved for Richmond Creek Farms cluster subdivision incorporating 42 Lots on 19 . 6 acres .

GRLFNP(►I(I, 1, I., NUW YORK 11944 April 1 , 1985 Hon. Bennett Orlowski, Jr. , Chairman Southold Town Planning Board Town Nall Main Road Southold, New York 11971 Re: Richmond Creek Farms Major Subdivision Dear Sir: This is in reply to your March 26, 1985 letter relative to the above subdivision. In reviewing the Planning Board records, I find that on June 15, 1982, the Planning Board granted preliminary approval of this subdivision. Section 100-31 B(2) of the Zoning Code, as enacted on August 9, 1983 by Local Law No. 9-1983, provides that the bulk requirements set forth in Column A- 40 of the Bulk Schedule (40,000 sq. ft. lots) , "shall apply to the following lots:" 11 (2) All lots shown on major subdivision maps upon which the Planning Board has held a hearing for preliminary map approval prior to May 20, 1983." Since the Planning Board granted preliminary approval of this map on June 15, 1982, it must have held a hearing thereon prior to such preliminary approval, and also prior to May 20, 1983. Therefore, the above provisions of Section 100-31 B( 2) apply and the lots shown on such map may be developed with lots having a minimum area of 40, 000 square feet. It would be my opinion that since this subdivision was automatically pursuant to Section 100-31 B(2) , no application for relief from the two-acre requirements was required under Section 100-31. 1 of the code. r;xrr r r;rr r -2- 1 am also of the opinion that the Planning Board may entertain an application by the owner to amend the preliminary map from a cluster concept to a conventional one-acre layout. A puhlir hearing should be held on the amended map prior to action thereon by the Planning Board. Yours very truly, ROBERT W. TASKER RWT :aa cc: Richard T.

RESOLVED that the Southold Town Planning Board approve the sketch map dated October 15 , 1985 for the subdivision to be known as "Richmond Creek Farms" for 42 lots on 49. 6 acres in the cluster concept at Main Road, Peconic subject to: 1.

Shellfish have been transplanted to it and will probably be considered for such future trans- planting programs as long as its waters remain open for commercial purposes. It has been noted that water quality becomes degraded In the vicinity of marinas having boats requiring dredging as indicated in your proposal. For these reasons DEC staff will likely object to any dredging within this creek. Since this shoreline is mostly natural (unbulkheaded) , staff will also likely object to any timber bulkheads. Gabions or other rock structures would be preferable. Construction of docks for the launching of small "car-top" boats would be more favor- ably considered provided acceptable plans are submitted. If a parking area is still included, it should be a minimum of 75' from the existing (or proposed) wetland edge. For other information requested, please refer to the enclosed "Incomplete Notice" and Y long EAF, Part I . A meeting with DEC staff can be arranged, should you request it.

Any proposed "clustering" should be made " main- tenance of undeveloped areas in or adjoining.tidal cwetlands"ourage tepursuant to 6NYCR11661 .6(a) (6) . Although the project has been revised to delete dredging and a boat basin ". . .at the present time. . ." from this these actions should still be considered as a likely resultlofathe nproject (pursuant to SEQR regulations 617.11b(2)) . Alternatives and/or mitigations (possibly through restrictions made in the subdivision decisions) should be considered now regarding mooring of up to 42 I more large boats in Richmond Creek. Further comments by DEC technical staff will be sent to you as additional information and/or revisions are received. In response to your letter of January 29, 1986, DEC recognizes Your agency as lead agency.

Ref.: Richmond Creek Farm (T) Southold DEC Ref. : 10-85-1561 STPB Ref.: Richmond Creek Farms Dear Sirs: Application for approval of the above referenced subdivision project is currently under your consideration. This office represents the applicant, Thomas Canavan. We ask for your attention and indulgence as we set forth hereinbelow a description of the bureaucratic stalemate that has been created. The necessary governmental approvals for this project (N.Y.S. DEC, Suffolk Co. Health Dept. and Town of Southold) are being pursued simultaneously, as must be. However, the Suffolk County Dept. of Health has notified us that they will not move ahead with our application until the DEC has given their approval. The DEC, in turn, has indicated that they will not be in a position to approve our application until the Town of Southold has approved this subdivision of property, as the Town has declared itself lead agent under SEQRA (State Environmental Quality Review Act) . Completing this circuit, the Town will not schedule a public hearing on this matter until such time as we can submit the 4 approvals of both the DEC and the Health Dept. On the basis of the above, our client's project is at a complete standstill. This situation is not merely counterproductive, it is totally unacceptable. Something, or somebody, has to 'give' somewhere. Your pertinent suggestions in this regard would be more than appreciated. Sincerely, Rudolph H.

Development disturbance needs to be located away from sensitive areas in a cluster. The area covered by lots 18-28 contain one more lot in the cluster concept than could be contained in a conventional R-40 subdivision. This is contrary to the philosophy and intent of the cluster concept in that the plan as proposed places development closer to more sensitive areas rather than farther from them. 5. The projects as proposed will adversely affect groundwater flowing under it through to Richmond Creek due to septic leaching field effluent, lawn fertilizer, pesticides, herbicides and other household chemicals. The source of water has not been proven. On site groundwater may not be acceptable. Unregulated construction will cause turbidity, siltation, erosion and sedimentation each having an adverse effect on groundwater. Specific measures of eliminating or reducing these adverse impacts need to be detailed. G. Impervious surfaces will be created near wetlands . This will increase runoff of relatively poorer quality waters into a wetland currently undisturbed. Impervious surfaces need to be reduced and located as far as feasible from these wetlands. E, 9 The project as proposed will have an adverse impact on indigenous and migratory wildlife in the creek. Threatened and endangered species may also be involved. Methods to minimize negative impacts need to be incorporated into the project. 11 . Due to the location next to a relatively calm creek side prehistoric habitation may be a possibility. This needs to be determined and addressed in a manner consistent with the quality of the resource discovered. LOCATION The proposed development is located in the Hamlet of Peconic, Town of Southold , Suffolk County, State of New York. ( See Exhibit 16 ) Said site encompasses 49 . 21 acres , is bordered on the north by N. Y. S . Route 25 (Main Road ) , the south by Wells Road and the west by Richmond Creek . The parcel contains several old buildings and a single family residence all located on Lot 1 of the proposed subdivision . The site is identified on the Suffolk County Tax Map as District 1000, Section 86 , Block 1 , Lot 9 and consists primarily of fallow agricultural lands . - I1 - ACCESS Access to the subject parcel is provided by its approx- imate 441 ' of frontage on N. Y . S. Route 25 (Main Road ) as well as 775 ' fronting on the existing southernly terminus of Wells Road . N. Y. S. Route 25 is one of the Town of Southold ' s two major arterial highways maintained by the State of New York while Wells Road is a paved minor thoroughfare administered by the Township of Southold . - 12- 1 Mtt� ` t' eukkatrl',p '� Ily, n. \c'\ � ♦ �' `1 0! t C!

As stated previously, in "Background and History" section, the subject parcel was granted sketch plan approval prior to May 20, 1983 . Therefore, yield will be based on 40,000 s . f . lot area rather than the current 80, 000 s . f . standard . Additionally, it should be noted that the Town of Southold is currently up- dating the Townwide Master Plan . S,iid update and its recomm- endations relative to the subject property will be discussed within the "Land Use and Zoning" section of this report.

The design and engineering for said subdivision was prepared by Young and Young, 400 Ostrander Avenue, Riverhead , N.Y. and incorporates several important features found at the site. ( Please refer to site plan - Richmond Creek Farms contained in report addenda) Said design is intended as one possible config- uration. The ultimate subdivision layout may vary to allow for additional criteria in the final plan . The design goal for the subject development is to provide the project sponsor with an economically viable subdivision while protecting the desireable natural features and enhancing the impacted areas of the site . Currently, the proposed layout seeks to cluster the residential sites in order to provide approximately 15 . 3 acres of open space, vegetative buffers and wetland resources . Individual lot areas will range in size from 20 ,000 s . f . to 3 . 1 acres with most lots encompassing 20,000 +s . f . 111. lots .located on the Richmond Creek interface will conform to the 40, 000 s . f . area requirement imposed by N. Y. S. D. E. C. reclulation.s . A drairiage pond/retention basin is proposed for the recharge of storm water runoff . This basin will be located at the southeast corner of the subdivision and will be designed - I I-- to create a natural wetland system, diversity of habitat, aesthetically pleasing land for, as well as serving its primary recharge functions . The access road serving the 42 lots of the proposed community will enter from the southernly terminus , Wells Road and continue northward to its intersection with N.Y. S. Route 25 (Main Road ) . Said road will serve the interior subdivision lot owners and will be constructed to Town of Southold specifications . Only one lot , 3 . 1 acres in size and incorporating the existing residence and out buildings will have frontage on Rte. 25 . Additional project improvements call for connection to the Greenport Water District trans- mission lines . Said water district now contains a pumping capacity of 32.9 million gal%day with ;ill wells in service. On October 20 , 1986 , the Utility Committee of the Village of Green- port authorized a feasibility study for the extension of water mains from their present terminus at South harbor Road to Main Road at the subject property ( See exhibit 18 - Greenport Village Utility Committee Minutes - Meeting of October 20 , 1986) . This recommendation was based on the advice of flolzmacher , McLendon and Murrell , P.C. , engineering firm for the Inc. Village of Greenport . Their report dated Oct . 1 , 1986 (See exhibit 19 ) recommends the Mill Land water supply project be implemented in three stages as outlined . The project sponsor , Richmond Creek Associates , }ias entered into an agreement with the Village of Greenport to fund Phase I - Feasibility Study and said study i, now underway . -1 5- Sanitary systems for potential dwellings will be of the "individual. sewage system" type approved by the Suffolk County Dept . of health Services . Said subsurface sewage systems will be constructed to County specifications and will include septic tanks and leaching pools with a 900 gallon capacity. Public water will be provided in accordance with agency spec- ifications and will be installed at the developer ' s expense. Maximum discharge is estimated at 300 gallons per day per dwelling . Run-off from common areas will be collected and directed to the aforementioned retention basins via a gravity flow piping system. Said system will mitigate impacts to groundwater caused by storm water contaminants and will be capable of retaining all run-off generated by impervious surfaces in the event of a 2." rainfall within a 24 hour period . Existing vegetation located on slope areas will be preserved through the imposition of a 50 ' wide vegetative buffer along the Richmond Creek shoreline . This buffer will serve to filter upland contaminants , screen wildlife populations , preserve wetlands and maintain natural shorelines . All structural improvements along the Richmond Creek frontage will maintain the 751 setback requirement established by the N. Y . S . D. E .C, Art . 25 regulations . Industrial dwellings will contain a gutter/dry well system to further restrict overland flow of storm water runorr and it is suggested that limitations on turf areas be imposed in order to reduce Fertilizer and pe_stl.clde/llerbicide_ use . - 16- As the total area of the parcel is 99 . 2.9 acres , Table I. , below indicates the present and proposed land use cond- iti-ons .

Subsequent to subdivision improve- ment completion , lot sales and home construction will occur over a 2-3 year period depending on market conditions . All construction activities will occur during normal business hours and those distirr. baiice occuring adjacent to the Richmond Creek natural buffer area will be restricted during the sensitive spring breeding periods . Disturbed soil horizons will be regraded and planted during prime spring and fall seeding periods . wycers MILITY 011:10:TEL. / 11il/a MAYOR C o/ 9,reelTorl (516)477.1748 C ORCE W IIIIIIIIARU POWER PLANT TEL M[W INCOw►O11[710N /III[ [, 1[I,/t (516)477'0172 TRUSTEES wt.INCOwrowwTloN uwotw etwtllwuw rw[ N, u.• lI ANNI M COOPLR GAIL F IIORION DAVID I KAPI I I WILLIAM If N I.II BLI IN ISLAND •1�• - rrlrr SUPT OF U`nLrTIFS JAMES 1 MONSFi.I. ��'¢ ' 236 iI11RI) S1'RI I'i' GRE.1 NPOR I', SIII 1 OLK COON I'Y NI-W YORK 11944 UTILITY COMMITTEE October 20, 1986 The Utility Committee met at 7:30 at the Villdge hall on Monday, October 20, 1986.

Mr. Marcucci and the committee discussed the feasability of the new mains, with a projected cost of $600,000 or to start With the Phase I part of H2I1's report which would be $7,800. In the event that any, requests for new service in the projected area, arrangements could be made by Contract for reimbursement to Mr. Marcucci , to defer Mr. Marcucci ' s cost. Mr. Marcucci stated he is willing to put up the $7,800 for Phase 1 . Motion by Mr. White, seconded by Mr. Heaney that the Utility Committee reviewed the letter from H211 dated 10/1/86 with regard to the Richmond Creek Project and has had a discussion with Mr. Marcucci with regard to the Village supplying water to the Richmond Creek Project arid Mr. Marcucci has indicated a willingness to pay for the Plase I feasability portion of the project and the committee recommends to the Village Board that they authorize the drafting of a conirdct between the Village and Mr. Mar- cucci which would cover his paying for this portion of this project arid which would further state that in the event that the tests are acceptable that the Village would tinter into negotiations with regard to payment for the well and mains to connect the new well to the Richmond Creek Project and to the end of our water main in the vicinity of South Harbor Road. The Utility Committee is in favor' of the project because it gives us the possibility of getting approximately a 400 - 600 gpm well that would be nitrate free due to the denitrification effects of the pond. - Carried Motion by Mr. White, seconded by Mr. Heaney to approve the minutes of the Sept. 22, 1986 and the August 25, 1986 meetings. - Carried There was a motion by Mr. Heaney, seconded by Mr. 'Wllite to acknowledge receipt of the following: a) Pumpage Reports through 9/86 for water, sewer and scavenger waste. b) Letter to John Costello - Moore's Lane' Project - 9/25/86 c) Newsday clipping - 7th.

James Monsell , we have met with Mr . fv Daniel Marcucci , the reputed owner of property at Richmond Creek in Peconic . The property is proposed for a residential subdivision. We do not have the water test details , but we are advised that good quality (nitrates and/or pesticides) is not available on this site and it is also close to saltwater . We have reviewed the alternatives as we see them , with Mr . Marcucci , and he has asked the Village to advise him what you can do to provide him with public. water . We advised him of our recommendations for Mill Lane near North Road , and of the plan to try to supplement the capacity at Plant S on South Harbor Lane . Either of these possibili- ties has merit but until the results of Plant S testing are available , and since you have made tentative arrangements for ;i cost/capacity assignment of this plant , we think the use of • the Mill Lane project is more desirable from the Village ' s prospective . We propose to implement this project in three stages , subject •� to your approval and presumably subject to Mr . Marcucci ' s r funding some portion of the cost . ,I iV .

S . Soil Conservation Service shows the majority of the property as having a "Ha " classification, Haven i,oam . Smaller sections within the t:.r. act, can be classified as "Rd" (Riverhead Sandy Loam) , "P1" ( Plymouth loamy sand ) , "Cp" (Carver and Plymouth sands ) , and "'I'm" (Tidal marsh) . "The Haven series consists of deep, well drained , medium textured soils that formed in a loamy or silty mantle over stratified coarse sand and gravel . " In this case the soil is classified as "HaA" which has slopes of 0%-2% and is typical of outwash plains . The erosion hazard is slight and natural ferti- lity is low . However , the response of crops to lime and ferl. i 1. i ger. is cloml . fiecause of this , these soils are used extensively for agriculture . Permeability is moderate in Hie surface layer and subsoil , but rapid in the substratum. Internal drainage is clood . "The Riverhead series corrsists of deep, well drained , moderately coarse textured soils that: formed in a mantle of sandy loam or fine sandy barn over thick layers of coarse ,,and and gravel . " `Phis tract of land contains both "RdA" ( Riverhead sandy loam, 0%-3", slopes ) and "Rd B" ( Riverhead sandy loam, 300-13^0 slopes ) . These soils are typical of morains and outwash plains . `I'liey have a moderate to high available moisture and good internal drainage . Permeability is moderately rapid in the surface and subsoil , but very rapid in the sub- stratum. This series has a low natural fertility , however, they respond well to lime and fertilizer. . Although this makes the soil somewhat well suited to crops , they have been used for housing developments . The "Rd11" classification has a slight erosion hazard . The "RdB" classification has an erosion hazard of moderate to slight . It has slightly more gravel in the surface thari the "Rdn" does . "The Carver series consists of deep, excessively drained , coarse textured soils . " Carver and Plymouth sands , 0/-3/ slopes, are found chiefly on outwash plains . This soil Unit has a slight erosion hazard and they are generally droughty with low natural fertility . These soils have been left for woodlands and brush because they are not well suited to drops . In many areas of the county they have been used for housing developments .

Slope areas are primarily confined to the Richmond Creek shoreline where inclines approach 8% on the westerly section of lot numbers 24 through 2P . Generally , the topography of the site can be broken down as follows : Areas with slopes 0-3% - 95% of site Areas with slopes 3-8% - % of site All topographical data is contained on the referenced subdivision map prepared by Young and Young . Vertical datum is the National Goodatic Vertical Datum of 1929 . (Mean Sea Level - Sandy Hook , N. J . ) ft should be noted that the proposed 50 ' vegetative buffer will serve to protect the slopes with potential erosion hazard located along the Richmond Creek interface . -?5- GROUNDWATER Groundwater on Long Tsland is derived entirely from precipitation . In the Peconic area , this quantity is est- imated at 45" per year (Cohen et . al . , 1968 ) . Of this amount , it Is estimated that 22-7.8" per year is lost to the atmosphere via evapor. itiorn- trarnspir. iti_on and 2 . 4 " makes up the overland flow component of the hydrologic cycle . The remaining water resources percolate through unsaturated soil horizons to the upper teveL of the water. table . Wi.thi.n the Southold vicinity , this freshwater resource is exclusively contained within Upper Pleistocene deposits (Crandell , 1963 ) . The water table associated with the out:wash deposits of this important unit is the Tipper 0lacial Aqui- Fr-,r ( J(,nsen , Suran , 1974 ) . The subject 1_ ies south of regional groundwater divide and exhibits a ground- water elevation of appro,timately 1 -2" . Said elevation results In dopt-h to grocind water of 0 ' - 11 ' . 'Th(- di recti on of the croundwater flow is towards the west southwest or perpendicular to the groundwater contour lines . The rate of flow depends on the hydraulic gradient and conduct- ivity . }lor. izontal flew rates in the Tipper. glacial. Aquifer of the North Pork are estimated at 0 . 5 ' per day (Woodward-Clyde, 1.977 ) . All upland aroas of the project site fall within the 208 Ground- water Management ;7,one Tv .

The waters of this ecologically important waterway provide local r. esi.dents with boating , c ()nunerci_al and rec•reati ()nal she].lfi.5hinq , recreational fishing ac wel1. as aes,lhetic- attributes . Conversations with residents indicate that the western area of. Richmond Creek was extended rr()rthwar.d by past dredgi.nq activities , a portion of this creating the subjects western shoreline. N. Y . S . Dept . of Environmental Conservation records indicates that the entire Richmond Creels System is classified SA under Title 6 Part 920 of the N. Y .S . F— C. L. ( Please refer to Exhibit 23 - N. Y . S . llah-r oual. li;y location Map and Water Quality Standards ) . A classification of SA is the highest designation within the water quality rating system. As a method of monitoring water quality standards , N. Y. S . D. E .C. staff has conducted samplinq programs throughout Southold '['own waters . The most recent sampling of Richmond Creek occured between August 2l , 1984 and Oct . 10 , 198/1 ( Please refer to Exhibit 2,,1 - N . Y. S . 7. F . C . Sampling of Little Peconi.c Ray Tri bt-Jari_es and lc:catior) map) . Records on rain events to cross reference total andfecal coliform counts during that period were riot available from N. Y. S . D. E . C . offices , but it is indicated that the Richmond Creels waters are ()Petr for shellfi ,41ring purposes indicating continued satisfactory water quality . Tt should also he noted the N. Y. S . D. E. C. staff will undertake a similar sampling program inclusive of Richmond Crock beginni.nq this spring . Results of said sampli_rnq will bo made available to Town Agencies upon request . The entire Richmond (reels estuary exhibits high biological productivity and is one of the most important local ecological resources . This observation is confirmed by the aforementioned water quality parameters , vigorous wetland communities and the diversity of wildlife utilizing the area . Mixinq cif Salitio and fresh waters discharged as a result of hydrat.rl.ic flow create osturine conditions as observed within the project vicinity . Such wetland dominated estuaries Provide an onvironmelit McIll in nutrients due to the decomp- osition of orclanic matter and should be monitored on a reqular basis to i.nsuro a continnod lilgh quality environment . Add- itinnally , it should be noted i.h,it inspection of existing residential dwellings located along the Richmond Creels shore- line rovoalod I- hat many pr.nporty owners maintain turf and/or landscaped areas immediately adjacent to the creek waters . rt is suggestPd that local groraps concerned with the continued i.ntegri.ty of Riclimond Creok ecosystem advise such residents as to the potential ',hazards associated within the use of commercial a,nd licr. hicides commonly appl iod to tancisc apod arca s . - in- -Mom _ Y r w 3 10 r TABLE I (contd.)

(b) Standards as appearing In table I as the letters SA, SB, SC, SD, B, C or ! C(T), or D opposite each specifically designated waters shall mean the standards of quality and purity establlshed for class SA, SB, SC, SD, B, C, or D, as the case may be as set forth in Part 701, supra. The symbol (T) after any class designation shall mean that the designated waters are trout waters and that the dissolved oxygen specification for trout waters shall apply thereto. i (c) Waters Index number as appearing in table I shall mean that number which i has been applied to any specifically designated waters as explained in and which appear upon map 2, section 920.6, infra. (d) Name as appearing in table I shall mean the name, if any, by which the _ specifically designated waters are generally known and which name, If any, appears on the reference maps.

As a result, native vegetation within the project site is restricted to shoreline areas and several small wooded sections located at the southwest corner of the property. Due to a past history of intense agricultural activity, limited vegetative succession has taken place . The resulting vegetative types are comprised mainly of herbacious weed species with the exception of the Tidal Wetlands bordering Richmond Creek and the aforementioned small wooded areas . The following, Table 1 , contains a list of plant species observed at the site . The list is not to be all inclusive but gives a detailed representation of the species found at the site .

As described in the previous section , the majority of the parcel has been in- tensively farmed for many years . Therefore, limited diversity of habitat and food sources has resulted in minimal wildlife values except for. the Richmond Creek shoreline areas . Because the subject property is situated at the head of the westerly area of Richmond Creek , the wildlife resources of the creels may utilize the subjects shoreline. for nosting , foraging and cover . In fact , the entire Richmond Creek system contains wetland , beach and upland habitats that favor a varied wildlife pop- elation . This importance has been recognized by the Town of Southold in its recommendation to the N. Y.S. Department of State. Said recommendation includes the Richmond Creek system as a "Significant Coastal Fish and Wildlife Habitat" and is based on its extensive resources that include Diamond Back Terrapins , Plue Claw Crabs , Scallops , Clams and wintering areas for water- fowl ( See Fxhibit 25 - Southold Town Board of Trustees Rec- commendations ) . Ccnversations with N. Y . S . D. E. C . staff would also indicate that although no active osprey nests have been documented at the Creek during thp 1986 breeding season , local. populations Probably utilize the Creels area as well as the shallow in I';_ shore bay areas for feeding activities . It has also been noted that the west shore beach and dune/wetland system adjoining the mouth of Richmond estuary contains a Least Tern nesting colony. The Coastal Fish and Wildlife Rating Form contained in Exhibit 25 , indicates that the colony was inactive in 1983 and 1981 and no data was available on the colony at N.Y.S . D. E.C . offices . However , it should be noted that the past presence of said nesting colony indicates that habitat conditions are condusive to successful breeding . Therefore , said area should be protected For its future potential as a nesting area . It should also be noted that this environmentally significant area of Richmond Crook is locaLod approximately 3/1 of a mile south of the southern limits of the project site ( See Coastal Fish and Wildlife habitat Rating Form - Habitat Boundary Map - Exhibit 25 ) . The following , 'fable 5 , is a list of wild- life species which utilize the subject property and/or the Richmond Creek ecosystem. Because of the agricultural character of the subject parcel , the majority of the species indicated on said list inhabit and/or utilize areas outside the Richmond Farm project boundaries . Lastly , many of Southold Town Creeks , are utilized by waterfowl as protected wintering areas . Said species are also indicated within Table 5 .

Field investigations into the shellfish resources found within the subject property revealed minimal shellfish populations along the majority of the northern Richmond Creek shoreline . This observation was expected as this portion of the property has been subjected to past dredging activities leaving a generally steep bank dominated by Phr.agmites . Further south along the shoreline, within the tidal wetland areas , populations of the Atlantic Ribbed Mussel were common . As with wildlife populations , the entire Richmond Creels estuary has been recognized as an important area for both comm- ercialand recreational shellfishing . This resource has been augmented by the shellfish transplant program administered by the Town of Southold . According to Town Records , since 19£31 approximately 20 bushels/year of hard clam seed and spawning stock have l,eeIl placed in various areas of Richmond Creek . Exact locations were not available . As shellfish populations are dependent ori numerous factors such as habitat suitability , turbidity and tidal velocity, tlhe Richmond Creek estuary contains both areas of prime 'importance to shellfisheries as well as areas typical of the northern subject shoreline where where limited habitat exists . -- 18- cmrr t1t,�f .�1 t TELEPHONE (516)765-1892 BOARD OF TOWN TRUSTEES TOWN OF SourlIOLD Town flail, 53095 Main Road P.O.

Sincerely , 4 'FYI..•, Martin Garrell Heather Cusack Ralph Condit Southold Town Conservation Advisory Council Enclosures 1 SIGNIGICANT COASTAL FISH & WILDLIFE HABITATS Town of Southold The following areas, partially or wholly within the Town of Southold, have been 'recommended by the Town of Southold for designation as significant coastal fish and wildlife habitats : Cedar Beach Point Conkling Point Corey Creek Cutchogue harbor Wetlands Downs Creek Goldsmith 's Inlet Hashamomuck Pond hungry Point Islands Husing Pond Jockey Creek and Town Creek Little Creek Longi Beach Bay Maratooka Point and Deep Hole Creek Mattituck Inlet Orient Harbor Pipe ' s Cove Plum Gut Port of Egypt Island Richmond Creek Robins Island The Race Please refer to the habitat narratives for detailed descriptions 4 and location. SOUTHOLD TOWN SIGNIFICANT COASTAL FISH and WILDLIFE HABITATS The informationacke p t from the Department of State with the sites recommended for designation was reviewed by the follow- ing local officials: The Southold Town Board The Southold Town Trustees The Southold Town Conservation Advisory Council The North Fork Environmental Council The Southold Town Baymen 's Association Representatives from each included: The Southold Town Board Council Paul Stoutenburgh The Southold Town Trustees Henry Smith John Bredemeyer Southold Town Conservation Advisory Council Martin H. Garrell Ralph C. Condit Jeanne Marriner Heather Cusack The North Fork Environmental Council Ruth Oliva 4 Martin Ii. Garrell The Southold Town Baymen ' s Association Steve Latson Ed Zineski Ralph Condit Enclosed are the rating sheets for the habitats . The previously mentioned officials ha'v2 added local information on each area. The scores have been adjusted in accordance with the procedures used by the Department of Environmental Conservation. Habitat boundaries have been marked in red on the attached maps . Boundaries have been extended for most of the habitats to include the entire salt water wetland and tidal creek areas . Extended boundaries have been Marked in red on the maps . Also most of the habitats not recommended by the Department of State have been recommended by the Town, with descriptions and explana- tions attached. One of the Town' s major reasons for recommending all of the areas for the significant designation is that they are unpolluted areas . Unpolluted creeks and marshes are now very rare in Long Island overall . Explanation of Rating Scores I The Town chose the number 64 ; "Rare in New York State", for the ecosystem rarity score for the marsh areas. Salt water marsh acreage is quite insignificant compared to total land mass in New York State. This number was chosen in consideration of the thousands of acres of marshland that has been lost to dredging, filling, pollution and erosion. The Town gives the replaceability score as 1. 2 - "Irreplaceable" They consider large marsh areas and resourceful creeks as ir- replaceable. The species vulnerability score was increased in most habitats to account for the presence of diamondback terrapin . The human use numbers were increased where significant shell- fish resources are found; also in areas of nesting and feeding waterfowl . Education and recreation uses were also noted. The population level of Spartina alterniflora, the salt tolerant plant found between mean low water and mean high water, 4 was rated as a 16: "Concentration of a species is unusual in the State of New York" . Large and healthy spartina marshes are found in many of the creeks The habitats located on Fishers Island were separately reviewed by local residents of the Island and you will receive their detailed reviews separately. The areas were grouped into three different types. ( 1) Areas designated as significant by the Department of State and agreed upon by the town . The rating sheets were slightly modified and information was added on each. Page 3 ( 2) Areas not recommended by the Department of State but amended and recommended-by the town . ( 3) Areas not recommended 'by the Department of State and not recommended by the town. Type ( 1) areas include: Cedar Beach Point The score was changed to account for several factors . A list of those include: 1. The rarity of an undeveloped salt marsh area. 2. High shellfish resources. 3. Diamondback terrapin 4. Importance as a weakfish spawning area. Conkling Point The score was changed to account for the rarity of salt marsh in New York State and its irreplacibility . Cutchoaue Habor Wetlands The boundaries were increased to include all of the tri- butaries of these creeks, Fast Creek, Mud Creed Broadwaters Creek and Wickham Creek . This is one of the largest marsh areas in the town. At the very end of East Creek is an area used for educational purposes by the Cut- chogue-Ntattituck School District . Additional wildlife include diamondback terrapin, white perch, scallops , clams , eels, spawning weakfish and bluefish , and blue claw crabs . This area is rated as one of the top three creeks in the town for clams and scallops. Downs Creek This is one of the town' s only totally undisturbed creeks , where dredging has never occured. Diamondback terrapin and nesting waterfowl are found in this area. Bank mussels are harvested. Spartina production is one of the highest growths of all the creeks. 4 Long Beach Bav The human use number was increased due to the commercial scalloping significance. It was rated as one of the top five areas for creeks and one of the top three areas for clams in the town . Orient Harbor The numbers were increased for diamondback terrapin , signi- ficant clam and scallop area, and the area' s use by trap f fishermen . Plum Gut Unclialt";ed . Type ( 2) areas include: Corev Creek Corey Creek is a moderate sized tidal creek and marsh area. It is located in the Great Iiog Neck Peninsula in Southold Town, off Little Peconic Bay. The Town proposes to expand the boundaries to include all of the creek, both the western and eastern parts . This is one of the top five creeks in the town for clams and one of the top three creeks for scallops. Other resources include oysters, mussels, eels , fish and ducks . Recreation is intensive in this area. Diamondback terrapin are found there. Goldsmith' s Inlet This is one of very few inlets from Long Island Sound. Significant wildlife related to human use are an abundance of softshell or steamer clams . Other values include recrea- tion and education . This is the site of a county park and nature trail used by school groups . Hashamomuck Pond The pond is important for recreation and shellfishing. It is shallow and has a hard bottom. Many ducks feed in this area. Thar? are tiro osprey !itsts i%-hich were both uc,"-- pied in 1985. Shellfish resources are signig'cant and the pond has been used in the seed clam program and as an im- portant scallop area in the past . It was rated as one of the top five creeks for clams . The presence of diamondback terrapin was also noted. IIus i ng Pond This pond is adjacent to nature conservancy land . Wild- life include snapping turtles and woodcocks. This is a coastal brackish pond with saltwater and freshwater input . Jockev Creek and Town Creek The boundaries were increased to include all of Jockey Creek and Town Creek. Resources include oyster, clams, scallops and eels . This is one of the top six areas for V scallops and on of the top five for clams. Little Creek This is a. small creek with a large healthy salt marsh Fish and wildlife includes diamondback terrapin, scallops clams, mussels and oysters . Maratooka Point and Deep (tole Creel: These boundaries %%ere increased to include Deep IIole Creek. This is a large salt marsh area. Significant resources include clams and scallops. Diamondback terrapins are found here also. i %lattituck Inlet, 'file Fo n included this entire creek. This is a deep water inlet with strong tidal flushing into Long Island Sound . Osprey: .%*ere seen nesting in 1985. Resources include soft clams . blue mussels . oysters , eels , and lobsters . Page 5 Pipe's Cove Boundaries are increased to include all of the marshes and the freshwater areas which filter into this tidal creek. There is extensive marsh area. The largest freshwater cat- tail marsh in the town is found at the headwaters of this creek. Richmond Creek All of Richmond Creek and its western tributary are recom- mended. Diamondback terrapins are found. Resources include blue claw crabs, scallops, clams and other shellfish, and wintering black duck and mallards . This is one of the two best creeks for crabbing in the town. Type ( 3) areas include: Paradise Point Tile Town agreed with the Department of State 's. comments and did not recommend this beach. Summary In conclusion , the Town would like to stress the fact that the creeks named above are largely unpolluted habitats rich in natural resources . The are spawning and nursery grounds for weak- fish, bluefish, flounder and many varieties of shellfish. The human use is shown by the number of shellfish permits issued by the Town Clerk in 1985 - 2115 noncommercial permits, 156 commercial permits , and 158 temporary resident permits - and the hundreds of mooring permits issued by the Town Trustees . The designation of these creeks as significant habitats will point out to the Town Board and the Department of Environmental Conservation their value to our community , when considering various development projects . The Town hopes to give these areas special F consideration and to insure that actions will minimize adverse impacts on these habitats . t 4 I (r_ I L Page No. 1 11/15135 RESULTS OF COASTAL FISH AND WILDLIFE HABITAT EVALUATIONS FOR TOWN OF,.SOUTHDLD, SUFFOLK.

They use shells of Periwinkles , Mudsnails , Whelks and Moons as their "homes" . Blue Clawed Crab - Callinectes sapidus - Inhabits muddy shores and is common in bays and mouths of estuaries . Move into deeper water in winter. Calico Crab - Ovalipes ocellatus - Prefers sandy bottoms . Fiddler Crab - Uca ouanax - Prefers the dryer parts of sandy beaches and salt marshes . FEeds on organic material in the sand. Spider Crabs - Libinia dubia - Prefer kelp beds and tidal pools . Blood Ark - Anadara ovalis - A species native to the region, commonly found on shallow sandy bottoms . They are regularly caught by baymen as an incidental catch. -39- Blue Mussel - Mytilus edulis - A very common local species , found attached to rocks and pilings . It is highly valued as tablefare. Atlantic Ribbed Mussel - Modiolus demissus - Another species common to the region, it is not edible but sometimes utilized as bait or chum. Found in the marsh banks within the intertidal zone . Atlantic Bav Scallop - Aeguipecteh irradians - Probably one of the region ' s most important shellfish species . Trey prefer shallow bay bottoms , creeks , etc. They are often found among beds of Codium ( Codium fragile) or Eelgrass (Zostera marina ) . Razor Clam - Ensis directus - This species is found in sand bars and shallow sand banks within the intertidal zone . Not believed to be a locally important commercial species , they are prized by some as tablefare . Soft-shell Clam - Mya arenaria - They prefer shallow, muddy, intertidal zones . Channeled Welk - Busycon canaliculatum - This is a much sought after species by both commercial baymen and people gathering them for their own consumption. This species is usually found on harder sandy bottoms . The are carnivores and scavengers , usually feeding on bivalves . -40- Eastern Oyster - Crassostiea virainica - This species is found attached to rocks , roots and shells . The are highly valued as tablefare. Hard-shell Clam - Mercenaria mercenaria - This species is found in different habitats; one is in shallow muddy areas near the low tide mark in estuaries , etc . ; another is in the sandy stations found in open, deeper bays or ocean bottom. They are highly valued as tablefare . Periwinkle - Littorina sp. - Commonly found within intertidal zone along shoreline . Fisheries : A large number of fish species could potentially occur within the Richmond Creek system. Studies covering the shallow water estuaries of Long Island (Briggs 1975 , Briggs , O ' Connor 1971 ) and sport fishing in Eastern Long Island (Briggs 1968 ) indicate species that are typical of shallow bays and estuaries . A representational list of finfish resources in the area are as follows : Winter Flounder - Pseudopleurnoictes americanus - Probably found in some of the deeper, muddier areas . None were found during the shellfish survey even though they are commonly caught while shellfishing. They prefer a soft, muddy bottom (commonly where there are patches of eel grass ) to a moderately -41- hard one . Hoqchoker - Trinected maculatus - This species is probably found in the area . From past experience, they are commonly caught in clam rakes and scallop dredges , prefer immediate vicinity of the coast , and are most common in bays estuaries , where water is more or less brackish. They sometimes run into wholly fresh waters . They are of no commercial value due to their small size , but are said to be a delicious tasting fish. Windowpane Flounder or sundial - Scophthalmus aquosus - This is a species often caught accidentially while shellfishing. Prefers a shallow water area or a sandy bottom. Fluke or Summer Flounder - Paralichthys dentatus - Mentioned as a probable inhabitant of the area . In reality, they are usually caught at 10 to 18 inches fathoms by commercial draggers . This species comes into shallower water on sandy or muddy bottoms in summer and tends to actively feed in moving waters where they will actually chase bait. Winter Skate - Raja ocellata - Commonly found while angling for winter flounder. It is thought to confine itself to sandy or gravelly bottoms in shoal water. None are actually believed to inhabit subject area . American Eel - Anguilla rostiata - Definitely thought to inhabit -42- the subject area, since this species is found over muddy bottoms and wherever food can be found . American Shad - Alosa sapidissima - This species might enter the subject area on rare occasions . Andromous , they enter fresh water only to spawn . Menhaden or Bunker - Brevoortia tyrannus - Frequently found at or near surface, they are plankton feeders. They may be driven into the subject area by feeding bluefish, weakfish or striped bass .

Spotfin killifish - Fundulus luciae - This species is probably found in the subject area, as they prefer coastal areas, living in brackish waters . Shiner or Tidewater Silverside - Menidia beryllina - They are surely found in the subject area and are most common brackish water. -d3- Northern Pipefish - Syngnathus fuscus - This species is probably found in the subject area . They are found more often over smooth hard grounds than over mud or rocks . Striped Searobin - Prionotus evolans - They are probably found in the subject area .

They prefer sandy bottoms . Northern Puffer, Balloon Fish or Blowfish - Saaeroides Maculatus - They might on occasion be round in subject area, and they are almost always found close to shore in relatively shallow water . Wetlands : As stated in previous sections of the report , the subject property contains one significant area of tidal wetlands vegetation . This area is located at the parcel ' s south-west corner and encompasses a triangular shaped area approximately one acre in size . This wetland area is comprised of both ( IM) Intertidal and (HM) High Marsh tidal wetland classifications as is shown of Exhibit 26 (N.Y.S . D.E.C. Tidal wetlands inventory map no . 714-544) • Said map also indicates (SM) Coastal shoals and mudflat designations for those adjoining areas of Richmond Creek located below the Mean High Water Line . Moving north along the project shoreline, the intertidal and high marsh vegetation previously described diminishes until the entire shoreline is dominated by Phragmites . This area of shoreline vegetation is the result of past dredging activities which extended the western arm of Richmond Creek northward along the project boundary. This dredging has resulted in creek widths that vary between 0 ' at the N.Y.S . Department of Transportation -46- Drainage easement located adjacent to the subject ' s western property line ( See Young and Young map) to approximately 300 ' at the southern edge of the project area . It should be noted that the project sponsor intends to preserve all wetland areas in their natural condition as well as creating 50 wide upland vegetative buffer areas to protect the integrity of existing wetland vegetation. -47- .`3."t r1�•w�-',Y .r 'x .i� 'f r'F'I �� ;.Y. yr � - F .. .� ` ♦ 41. 7� 'ate Sm ' '•y-�`�* �°u'amu!" .,�•• 'j1�_•w.j� {,• P •. � '``' .X-` .: y �l` a 14 Av� IF .

Alternate transportation modes include the Long Island Railroad , Bus service and air travel via Mattituck Air Park. In the vicinity of the subject , vehicular access is provided by N. Y. S . Route 25 (Main Road) . This major east-west arterial road;ray is the most heavily traveled in the Town of Southold and adjoins the subject property on the north. On the subjects southern boundary is located ;yells Road , a minor thoroughfare and maintained by the Town of Southold. Both roadways are well maintained and appear to offer satisfactory levels of service . The proposed Richmond Creek Farms subdivision design incorporates , at Planning Board request , an extension of Wells Road with connection to V.Y. S . Route 25 ( See Exhibit 2 - Correspondence - Orlowski to Bruer, November 20 , 1985 ) . The existing service and capacity analysis contained within the Master Plan Update Background Studies (Raymond Parish, Pine and Weiner 1984) indicate that only one area of N.Y. S . Route 25 between Jamesport and Mattituck was approaching the maximum carrying capacity of the roadway. It is further stated that "the remaining counts do not exceed these maximum figures ( 600 vehicles per hour/lane) and it is not apparent that Route 25 , in any other section, experiences congestion. Furthermore, -48- said analysis also points out seasonal peaks where traffic may slow considerably particularly within the developed hamlets . As a result, it is unlikely that the completed project ' s 420 round trips per day will have any negative impact on the traffic conditions along Wells Road and V. Y. S . Rte. 25 . The following, Table 9 , indicates the most recent traffic counts as well as the highest counts occuring on V.Y. S . Rte . 25 'between New Suffolk Ave . and Youngs Ave . in Southold . Said data has been extracted from Master Plan Update - Background Studies Raymond , Parish, Pine and Weiner - 1984 and are based on V. Y. S . Department of Transportation data .

Passenger service is provided to Mattituck, Cutchogue , Southold and Greenport . Suffolk County Transit provides year-round bus service within the township and Sunrise Express operates one morning and one afternoon trip to and from N.Y.C. between April and September. It should also be noted that the Hampton Jitney now also offers service the the eastern terminus of the Long Island Expressway. -50- LAND USE AND ZONING As described in the history section of this report , the subject property received preliminary approval from the Southold Town Planning Board prior to May 20 , 1983 . As such, the Richmond Creek Farms lot vield may be based on a 40 , 000 s . f . lot area requirement . Current zoning regulations would provide for a lot yield based on 30 , 000 s . f . lot areas as would proposed revisions to the Town of Southold Master Plan and Zoning requlations . These revisions , due to be adopted in early 1987, are contained in part within Exhibit 27 - Proposed Zoning Map, Town of Southold and Exhibit 28 - Proposed Zoning Code Amendments , Town of Southold . These proposed zoning amendments .would include the subject property within the low density "A" Residential , R-80 zoning classification. Said classification provides for 80 , 000 s . f . minimum lot areas in order to encourage the preservation of prime agricultural lands, open space, groundwater resources and a rural environment for the Township of Southold . Existing land uses within the vicinity of the subject property are primarily limited to agriculture and single family residential dwellings ( See Exhibit 29 - Generalized Existing Land Use - Master Plan Update, RPPW Inc. 1982 ) . Said dwellings are generally sited on lots approximately 40,000 s . f . or less with development concentrated along shoreline areas . A small commercial development dominated by Wells Pontiac is located on the north side of N.Y. S. Rte . 25 -51- in close proximity to the subject . Field observations by Land Use staff would indicate that the majority (more than 500/o) of dwellings within the Richmond Creek area are occupied on a seasonal/or weekend basis . -52- Long r j •• Y.

EXHIBIT 29 EXISTING LAND USE I COMMUNITY SERVICES The demand for public services and facilities within the Town of Southold is increasing as new residential/commercial developments place additional demand on sensitive services such as recreation. At present the hamlet of Peconic is not a part of a Park district . Recreational facilities are limited to the playground and ballfield located at Peconic School , The Town Recreation Center on Peconic Lane and several beach/ waterway access points such as the Wells Road Terminus . It has been shown that the recreation needs of Southold Town include expanded and/or additional waterway access points , ballfields and tennis courts ( RPPW Inc . Background Studies Oct . 1983 ) . Investigations into the use of Richmond Creek for boating activities indicate that at present , there are approximately 40 permitted moorings , docks and/or stakes scattered throughout the estuaries . It should be noted that the majority of these are concentrated at the southernly bounds of the Richmond Creek system ( See Exhibit 30 - Southold Town Trustees Dock/Mooring location maps) . It should also be noted that in addition to the limited recreational facilities previously mentioned, all Southold residents are able to utilize the various Town complexes throughout Southold . -53- �' ,r V n o r INDEX #r STRUCTURE PERMIT 20 dock 1192 - stake 21 mooring 534. 535, 536 H- H. ]- 22 stake 639 ~' � ° 2 stake o `c H — 23 stake 810 m.37 0 � a to 3 dock 4 dock 30h2 24 mooring 1028, m. 219 El 0 o H5 dock 25 mooring 1514, m. 519 H 6 dock -- 26 stake -- 27 stake w " w 7 dock 1526 28 stake r- 0 -- x 8 dock 1605 29 moorin In 9 bulkhead, dock 1565(bh) `t 3p stake g 10 bulkhead 22 -- 11 dock, mooring 1341, 1527 31 stake 12 dock 32 stake 13 mooring1504 33 stake 912, m. 133 14 moorin1425, m.469 34 stake 1424, m,465 15 mooring -- 35 stake 931, m. 147 16 dock 1522 36 stake 848 17 dock -- 37 stake 1573, m-540 18 mooring -- 38 stake 1337 , m.414 19 mooring -- 39 stake 843, m.70 40 mooring 885, m. 106 o� N� INDEX # STRUCTURE_ PERMI`'i' 20 dock stake 21 mooring 5 22 stake C 2 stake _ 23 stake 8 3 dock 24 mooring 4 dock 1062 ng - 5 dock25 mooring 6 dock == 26 stake - 7 dock 1526 27 stake - 8 dock 1605 28 stake - 9 bulkhead, dock 1565(bh) 29 mooring - 10 bulkhead 22 30 stake - 11 dock, mooring 1341 , 1527 31 stake - 12 dock 1504 32 stake - 13 mooring -- 33 stake 9 14 mooring 1425, m.469 34 stake 1 15 mooring -- 35 stake 9 16 dock 1522 36 stake 8 17 dock -- 37 stake 1 18 mooring -- 38 stake 1 19 mooring -- 39 stake 8 40 mooring 8 illillillillillllllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII1111111111111111111111illillillillj11111111111111!!Illllllllll- / �u 5 0 A/b C F� rN 11; Iti•lf �Y �4 � 1• J P7►� � v AY 01 s• 1' s,r � w 0 r � n r w f , 5 A� EDUCATION Educational facilities within the Town of Southold are excellent . Four school districts serve students in grades kindergarten through twelve while three districts serve only students at the elementary level . Institutions of higher education are located at Southampton College on Long Island ' s south fork, The Riverhead Campus of Suffolk County Community College and the State University of New York at Stony Brook. Despite projected population increases within the Township of Southold, school enrollments are expected to remain stable or decrease slightly (Master Plan Update Background Study , RPPW 1984) . A complete listing of enrollment data and projections are referenced in Exhibit 31 . As a result , completion of the Richmond Creek Farms subdivision as primarily a secondary/vacation ownership project will not impact the current educational system. POLICE AND FIRE PROTECTION Staff conversations with Southold police department personnel indicated a satisfactory level of service for police and fire protection within the Southold Township. Current Town wide police protection is provided by a Town maintained and operated police force with all volunteer fire companies serving various areas of the township. Police personnel confirmed that no additional services will be required upon completion of the Richmond Creek project . -54- Table 1 School Districts in Town of Southold Enrollment Data W Percent Change Highest n From Highest Enrollment O Actual Enrollment Last 10 Year Projected Enrollment Year In Last O Public School District 1978-79 1979-80 1980-81 1981-82 1982-83 5 Years N Enrollment 1983-84 1984-85 1985-86 1986-87 1987-88 Ten Years � M Laurel (1-6), (K and 7-12 1978-79 0O Mattltuck-Cutchoque)* 84 70 69 76 78 -7.1% -7.1% Not Available 84 - Hattituck-Cutchogue / 1974-75 (D y (K-12) 1,310 1,312 1,303 1,299 1,273 -2.8% -6.7% 1,274 1,249 1,231 1,219 1,215 1,365 ct w New Suffolk (K-6) 1972-73 fi (7-12 to Southold) 25 31 30 24 19 - 24% -40.6♦ 18 23 21 20 32 Pi Southold 1973-74 (K-12) 857 808 794 738 744 -13.2% -29.3% No significant increase or decrease 1,053 -- - Greenport 1971-72 and 1975-76 (K-12) 817 783 715 680 651 -20.3% -27.3% 640 629 620 600 587 896 Oyster Ponds 1974-75 K-6 (H.S. - Greenport) 104 93 93 90 98 - 5.8% - 30% 97 101 100 94 84 140 Fishers Island 1972-73 K-12** 69 55 47 42 43 -37.7% -61.3% 42 43 45 44 43 111 Total 3,328 2,893 - 13% * Source for all districts except Laurel: District Superintendents' offices.

REAL PROPERTY TAX RESOURCES Conversations with Southold Town Assessors ' office revealed the following approximately anticipated assessment levels for the vacant unimproved Richmond Creek -Farms lots : SIZE APPROXIMATE ASSESSED VALUATION' Vacant interior lot $1400 . 00 Improved interior lot ( acreage) $6800 .00 Vacant waterfront lot $2800 . 00 Improved waterfront lot $8200 .00 The total approximate vacant , unimproved assessed valuation would be calculated at 374, 200 .00 generating approx. $26 , 000 .00 in additional tax revenues . A conservative estimate of a $5 , 000 . 00 improvement assessment was also utilized by said assessors ' office for a typical 3 bedroom home . This figure would provide for a $301 , 000 . 00 total improved assessment per lot for an approximately total of $105,650 .00 in additional revenues . It is anticpated that this revenue will exceed service demand requirements because of the second home market orientation within the Southold/Peconic area. As stated previously, lot sales within the immediate vicnity of the -55- subject are overwhelmingly purchased for retirement or second home purposes . Therefore, it is projected that Richmond Creek Farms as well as similar resort/country/second home subdivisions will have a positive, rather that negative effect on the Southold Town Real Property Tax resource . It should also be noted that the total Real Property Assessment for Southold Town posted a two million dollar rain between 1986-87. This trend is expected to continue as new construction projects are completed . -56- CULTURAL RESOURCES Visual Resources : The subject property is incorporated into a significant area of agricultural parcels extending from the Richmond Creek drainage system eastward to Wells Road . This assemblage presents a visual open space corridor that is a beneficial contrast to the commercial development presently located along the north side of V. Y. S . Route 25 (gain Road ) . In general , the existing land use patterns in the vicinity present a rural/agricultural character containing disbursed development of single family dwellings particularly along Creek shorelines . Richmond Creek itself presents favorable visual corridors when viewed from areas along the southwest section of the property . However, none of the aforementioned visual resources are known to be unusual or of local sig- nificance . -57- HISTORIC AND ARCHAELOGICAL RESOURCES An intensive cultural resource inventory of the subject property has been prepared by the Long Island Archaelogical Project and is contained in its entirety within the Addenda of this report . The summary and recommendations of said study are as follows : The prehistoric site area ( LIAP Figure 24 - Land Use DEIS Exhibit 32 ) , located within the subdivision between Transect A and the creek, yielded artifacts representing various stages of stone tool manufacturing ( from flakes to parts of finished tools ) . As previously stated , the surficial soil between Transect A and Richmond Creek is sandy loam with a heavy content of quartz gravel and cobbles . The slope of the terrain ( 3 to 8 percent ) results in some erosion thereby exposing the gravel and cobbles and prohibiting the development of a protective humus layer. Another contributing factor to the absence of a humus layer is tidal flooding during storms . The exposed gravel and cobbles are the raw materials from which aborigines manufactured their stone tools , making this spot an ideal location for such an activity. The prehistoric site area extends into the building envelopes of Lots 20 through 28 . Within the 75 foot setback from the wetlands, terrain alteration ( i . e. stripping and grading) -58- should be restricted. Terrain alterations which occur within the prehistoric site area east of the wetlands setback should be monitored by a professional archaelogoist . The pre-1838 Squires-Rogers-Moore-Wells structure has been torn down and replaced with a 1951 residence , which is located at the northeast corner of the project area . As previously stated , since our testing indicates that this corner has been covered with protective fill , any additional con- struction-related terrain alteration in this vicinity should also be monitored by a professional archaeologist . The above two areas have been deemed the most pre- historically and historically significant within the project area although documentation of a subdivision ' s land use through contemporary times is as significant in that this documentation adds to the compendia of local history . Although prehistoric, historic and contemporary documentation of an area ' s exploitation, its contribution to local history far outweighs imagined prohibitions . Once the physical evidence of our past is obliterated, it is lost forever. The cultural resource inventory is the meansby which this past can be remembered , if not physically, then at least in documentary form. It should be noted that the project sponsor has agreed to adhere to the recommendations of the Long Island Archaelogical Project in order to mitigate the subdivision impact on the archaelogical resources . -59- DEMOGRAPHY The 1980 census indicates that the project vicinity ( Peconic) contained 1 , 056 residents . This figure represents a 221 person increase over 1970 levels . 601 housing units are contained within the area with 310o classified as seasonal or secondary homes . During the summer months , the town wide population increases significantly. This increase is estimated at 110% of the Town resident population ( RRPW Master Plan Background Studies , 1984) or about 20 ,000 persons on a peak subber weekend. It is these residents that have formed the majority of the existing residential real estimate market . The population characteristics are as follows were exerpted from the Master Plan Update Background Studies RPPW, 1984. GENERAL POPULATION CHARACTERISTICS The population in the Town is , to a great degree, homo- geneous . 96 . 71/0 of the population is white and 2 . 7% is black. The balance is represented by several racial and ethnic groups . Sixty-five percent of the population of those 15 and over is married and 4. 6% is either divorced or separated . Widowed persons account for 10 . 5% of the population, 30 more than the bi-county average. AGE GROUP COMPOSITION The most significant difference in the age group comp- -60- osition of Southold, compared to the Nassau-Suffolk region, is the great percentage of senior citizen residents . Thirty percent of the population is 60 years of age or more , with an unusually high percentage ( 22 . 70/0) 65 and over. The age structure in Southold also results in a work force pop- ulation of 25-54 which is almost 7°0 smaller than the Nassau- Suffolk average . -61- SIGNIFICANT ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS The following table is an outline of significant en- vironmental impacts that could be expected if the proposed action is implemented . Said impacts may adversely or ben- eficially affect the environmental setting of the project vicinity and are so indicated . Mitigation measures are included in said analysis and will be explained in greater detail in a subsequent section of this report . SIGNIFICANT ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS ADVERSE ( - ) AND BENEFICIAL ( +) ( -) A. Increase in storm water generation from pervious and impervious surfaces associated with improved building sites . ( +) B. Installation of storm water management system to con- tain all runoff generated from impervious surfaces . ( -) C. Disruption of existing wildlife populations currently utilizing sites located within the proposed building envelopes and/or roadways . (Minimum impact due to agricultural character of area. ) ( -) D. Change in existing topographical conditions and natural drainage contours resulting from regrading activities . (Storm water recharge system to prevent overland flow. ) ( -) E. Permanent loss of the majority of high value agricul- tural lands found at the site. ( +) F . Decrease in pesticide/nitrate use over present agricultural practices . ( -) G. Increase in human activity attributable to 42 residential dwellings constructed throughout project site . { -) H. Increase in traffic flow to and from project site (420 trips/day) (No congestion anticipated) . (+) I. Decrease in groundwater nitrogen loading due to reduction of agricultrual Operation. -62- (+ ) J. Preservation of significant vegetative communities area and erodable slopes located within 50 ' buffer along Richmond Creek ( +) K. Creation of pond /wetland area incorporated into storm water management system. ( + ) L. Increase in Real Property tax revenues generated by anticipated retirement/secondary home residences . (-) M. Increase in utilization of Richmond Creek resources (boating, shellfishing and recreational fishing) . Said increases are attributable to increased population (42 residential dwellings) adjacent to creek system. It is anticipated that residents will utilize said recreational areas as do other Town residents . ( -) N. Increase in public water supply usage attributable to 42 residential dwellings (Maximum 300 gals/day per dwelling - Average 150 gal/day) . ( + ) 0. Preservation of areas of archaelogical significance located along Richmond Creek shoreline. ( -) P . Loss of scattered archaelogical artifacts located in primary subdivision area . ( +) Q. Preservation of existing tidal wetlands found on site. ( + ) R. Cluster subdivision design to preserve approximately 15 . 3 acres or 31% of site as open space . ( -) S . Increase in development pressure due to availability of public water supply. Specific concern has been raised as to the effect of a sanitary system on the groundwater quality that will be dis- charging into Richmond Creek. Nitrogen due to sanitary disposal and turf management is calculated below. The basis of this calculation is the Cornell Study for the Southold pemonstration Site (Troutman, Porter and Hughes, 1983) . 42 dwellings x 2 . 54 residents x 10lbs ./capita/yr. - 1 ,066 .80 lbs . N (Avg. residents per house in Southold) (N per resident) = (Total N) -63- 1066 . 80 lbs . N x 500/0 reduction = 533 .40 lbs . N/yr. ( Potential from sanitary effluent ) Nitrogen resulting from fertilization of lawn areas is also determined as follows : 10, 000 sq . ft . x 2 . 5 lbs. N/1 , 000 sq. ft . = 25 lbs . N (area fertilized) (application rate) (N applied) 25 lbs . N x 500/0 = 12 . 5 lbs . x 42 lots = 525 lbs . (N applied) (leaching rate) (total N) Therefore, the potential amount of nitrogen released from fertilizer application on the subject site per year is 525 lbs . The total volume of recharge water is determined as follows: Precipitation 20 . 75 inches/year _ 12 inches = 1 . 7292 feet (recharge) (conversion) (recahrge) 1 . 7292 feet x 2 , 144, 894 s . f . = 3 , 708 , 951 cu. ft ./yr .

Conversion of total nitrogen weight and water volume to units of comparison result ina weight to volume ratio of 2 . 3 mg/1 . for the subject project . It should be noted that this concentration falls below the 10 mg/1 standard for nitrogen in drinking water . It is also far below existing nitrate concentrations found at the site and will therefore not adversely effect adjoining surface waters . Lastly, since public water supply will be utilized, no private wells will be located down gradient of the project site. -65- Bacteria contained in sanitary effluent are an add- itional concern since the project borders a significant shellfish resource. As bacteria are filtered by their passage through porus soil horizons , the Suffolk County Dept . of Health Services requires a 100 ' separation between tree effluent discharge point and a surface water or private well . This distance is considered adequate for filtration processess . The Richmond Creek Farms subdivision contains no proposed sanitary system closer than 200 ' from adjoining surface waters with most of the majority of the waterfront lots exceeding that parameter . As stated previously, stormwater generated by impervious surfaces will be recharged to groundwater through an ecological recharge basin designed to support Tetland habitats and filter pollutants . Said groundwater recharge is recommended by the National Urban Runoff Protection Study (NURPS ) . It should also be noted that the ecolobical recharge basin is located over 450 ' from the surface waters of Richmond Creek. This distance is considered more than adequate for water quality protection. Concern has also been expressed that the approval of the Richmond Creek Farm subdivision will place additional pre- ssures on public utilization of the Richmond Creek Estuary. This assertion is correct in that construction of 42 additional dwellings will result in the potential for those residents -66- to utilize the Town resources in a manner similar to all other Town residents . At present , many individuals from outside the project vicinity utilize Richmond Creek for many rec- reational pursuants . It should also be noted that the Town of Southold Board of Trustees recommended that the subdivision provide an additional 50 ' ROW for the use of Town residents , thus encouraging said public utilization. it should also be noted that this Board reserves regulatory powers over in- stallation of docks and moorings allowed within Town waters . Therefore, applications for such facilities will be reviewed , approved/denied and monitored to assure the proper use of the Town resources . -67- MITIGATION MEASURES TO MINIMIZE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS The proposed action has been conceptually designed in order to reduce as many adverse impacts as early as possible in the planning sequence . The type of land use and special areas of concern have been addressed and incorporated into the design . Numerous meetings and conversations have taken place with various involved agencies in Town, County and State levels of government . The following is a description of the mitigation measures which are incorporated into the proposed subdivision plan : -Clustering of proposed lots will preserve sig- nificant resources , create a 15 . 3 acre open space reserve and protect environmentally sensitive areas of the site . -Contain storm water run-off generated by im- pervious road surfaces by constructing a natural pond recharge system. Said pond will filter contaminants , establish wetland habitat and add to the aesthetic resources of the site. -Establish building envelopes and sanitary systems in conformance with Suffolk County Dept . of Health Services and Town of Southold specifications for single family dwellings . All sanitary systems -68- will be located 200 ' from the wetland creek boundary. -Encourage property owners to utilize native vegetation and minimize turf areas . Said recommendation will reduce fertilizer and pest- icide use and minimize nutrient leaching . -Utilize open space and drainage areas to protect and preserve slope areas with potential for erosion . Said erodable slopes also contain areas of important archaelogical resources and will be contained within the 50 ' buffer area of natural vegetation located along Richmond Creek. -Construct extension of Greenport Water District to provide subdivision residents with a public water supply system. -Construct subdivision entrances with clearly marked and accesible ingress and egress lanes to minimize traffic flow restrictions at the N.Y. S . Rte. 25 (Main Road) intersections . -Utilize subdivision design that preserves all existing tidal wetland resources found within the project boundaries . -69- -Incorporate a 50 ' wide vegetative buffer along the Richmond Creek interface to filter upland contaminants , screen wildlife populations and preserve areas of archaelogical significance . -Meet or exceed all V. Y. S . Dept . of Environemtnal Conservation ' s standards for subdivisions under Art . 25 of the E . C .L. Said standards include 75 ' setbacks for structures , 100 ' setbacks for sanitary systems and 40, 000 s . f . lot minimum for all improvements bordering Richmond Creek. -Adhere to recommendations of L. I . Archaelogical Project relative to preservation of areas with primary archaelogical significance along Richmond Creek and supervision of grading activities in other areas . -Monitor construction activitiy to insure that no erosion is occuring on exposed soils . Topsoil will be stockpiled and utilized in revegetation of disturbed areas . -Once final grading is complete, all disturbed areas will be seeded with a rapid cover crop such as rye grass . -70- ADVERSE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS THAT CANNOT BE AVOIDED As proposed, the development of the Richmond Creek subdivision will incorporate a number of negative environ- mental impacts that cannot be avoided . Of major importance in the permanent loss of 49 . 24 acres of high quality agricultural land . This conversion of open space, agricultural use to residential use, continues common trend as development activities preclude agricultural production. Secondly, extension of a public water supply system will encourage additional growth within areas of diminished groundwater quality. Such develop- ment will utilize more agricultural land and will add to the population increase attributable to the Richmond Creek Farms subdivision . While it is anticipated that these additional residences will generate significant real property tax revenues , it will also place greater demands on the use of the areas natural resources . Increase in mooring and dock applications can be anticipated as well as pressures on finite resources such as shellfish and finifish fisheries . Lastly, although the subject development scheme mimimizes many potential impacts and is a density allowable under Town of Sothold regulations; it conflicts with recommendations contained within the proposed master plan update and proposed zoning regulations . These documents call for low density residential development with an 80,000 s . f . minimum lot area . t -71- ALTERNATIVES Alternate Technology: The proposed project calls for the development of property for single family detached dwellings . Said dwellings will utilize individual sanitary disposal systems pursuant to Suffolk County Department of Health Services ' specifications . Alternate technology for waste water treatment would include construction of a sewage treatment plant with tertiary capability and groundwater discharge. This type of plant is not economically feasible for the small size of the subject development as the cost of its installation would render the resulting lots uncompetative given current market conditions . Alternate Design: The subject property could incorporate the following alternate design plans : 1 . Standard one acre grid subdivision layout . 2 . Standard two acre grid subdivision layout consis- tent with current and proposed zoning. 3 . Cluster subdivision layout based on two acre lot yield provided for under current and proposed zoning districts . -72- As stated previously, alternate number 1 has been explored and rejected upon advice of the Southold Town Planning Board. It is opinioned that the present cluster provision will maximize open space values while retaining the lot yield provided by the Town confirmed 40 , 000 s . f. lot minimum. Any reduction in density to the 80 ,000 s . f . lot area minimum contained in current and proposed zoning regulations would benefit : -Open space values -Groundwater quality -Aesthetic and visual resources These low density lot areas are in the Master Plan Background Studies ( RPPW 1984 ) as consistent with preser- vation and agricultural land conservation. If clustered at said reduced density, said subdivision, based on two acre yield, would maximize the existing natural resources of the site while minimizing negative impacts associated with single family residential subdivisions . However, it has already been determined that the project sponsor is legally entitled to a yield based on a 40, 000 s . f . minimum lot area . This legal interpretation is contained within the Background and History section of this report as Exhibit 1 . Road location and design would change with each design alternative but it should be noted that the present Wells -73- Road extension has been incorporated within the proposed design as per Town of Southold Planning Board recommendations . ALTERNATE LAND USE The site is presently zoned for residential land use. The pattern of single family detached, residential dwellings is found throughout the subject vicinity and much of this area of Southold Township. Limited commercial development is present along thenorth side of N.Y.S. Route 25 and there exists potential for compatible commercial development at the subjects highway frontage . This type of strip development, while profitable, leads to congestion, increased accident rates and visual pollution . Therefore, it is not recommended as an alternate land use . Multi family development based on increased yield to justify construction of a tertiary sewage treatment plant or standard yield based on 40 , 000 s . f . lot area mimimums would present an alternate land use that would maximize preservation of open space and agricultural values . Although these residential complexes (condominiums) would lessen the environmental impacts , they would not be compatible within existing land use development patterns . NO ACTION The no action alternative would result in no negative environmental impacts as long as the property was not placed back into agricultural production. Open space, groundwater -74- quality, wildlife, cultural and aesthetic values would be maintained at present levels . Continued crop production would lead to continued degradation of groundwater quality. As a result of the property remaining in its present state, the project sponsor would not receive any economic returns on investment with continued significant carrying costs such as real property tax assessments and mortgage payments . Preservation of the site in its entirety may also be accomplished by acquisition by governmental agencies through negotiated purchase or condemnation. -75- IRREVERSIBLE AND IRRETRIEVABLE COMMITTMENT OF RESOURCES If the Richmond Creek Farms residential subdivision is constructed, high quality agricultural lands will be irretrievably committed to residential use patterns and potential for open space preservation through governmental acquisition will be eliminated . Utilization pressures on Richmond Creek will increase through the potential use by subdivision residents and potential archaelogical resources may be lost as a result of construction activities . -76- GROWTH INDUCING IMPACTS Completion of the Richmond Creek Farms subdivision with its proposed public water supply extension will provide impetus for further residential construction along the areas of water service. This growth is now limited in part by poor groundwater quality with elevated concentrations of nitrates and chlorides . Public water supply would eliminate these restrictions and promote continued growth along water supply corridors . Such growth will be reduced in density through existing and proposed zoning regulation but would still be accelerated due to the availability of water supply. It is not anticipated that road construction proposed within the subdivision design will create additional growth nor will the completion of the project require any additional public services. -77- ADDENDA Contents Land Use Company Qualifications List of References N.Y.S.

(Young and Young 1985) -6- INTRODUCTION A cultural resource inventory has been conducted of the Richmond Farms Subdivision (Peconic) by the Long Island Archaeological Project (Figure 1) . This 49.6 acres subdivision is bounded on the north by Main Road (New York State Route 25) and property now or formerly of Grattan, on the east by property now or formerly of Simon, Ringold and Mehrman, on the south by property now or formerly of Skwara and on the west by Wells Road, the westerly branch of Richmond Creek and property known as Richmond Shores at Peconic (now or formerly of Brush and Pirog) (Young and Young, May 29, 1985; Figures 2 through 4) . The purpose of this inventory is to determine the existence or non-existence of prehistoric and/or historic cultural resources within the subdivision. Potential site sensitivity was evaluated in terms of environment, documentary research and oral interviews. The resulting data were then used as a basis for a field reconnaissance and subsurface testing. The results of these survey phases, along with support documentation, are presented in this report. punOJ5 TauTSTso a14y ' (OS - 86 Hy) suOTganaox® gsaq uno ano dq P84ROTPUT sa 'TTT3 44TM uTaTJano uaaq LTquapTna say sass goarosd ayg ;o Jausoa gsaaygJou ayq 'sasaj NaasO PUOW40TH ;o 0490 ayq uI ' (" :SL6T 'PTgI) ..- - -sgods 146T14 6uTuTorpa nos; gno TaTJa4aa TTos 4ITM POTTT3 uaaq array saaaa pegsngsTpun -pegangsTpun q;aT uaaq ana14 dayq saoaTd saggo uT qnq 'panoaOJ uaaq ana14 TTosgns eqq 3o lied zaddn ayq pus joAvT soe;ans ayq saoOTd ul..

The marsh, among other environmental attributes served as a buffer zone between a body of salt water and seepage of ground water. (Ibid. 1975: 17, 87) . Due to the high water level of the westerly creek branch, bank visibility was obscured . The native vegetation of the project area included black, white, red and scrub oak, as well as pitch pine. However, the majority of the project area is now fallow farm field . Surface visibility within the flatter topography is almost totally obscured by unharvested wheat. The sloping topography which lies to the east of the marshland is also fallow, but surface visibility is good to excellent due to only a sparse cover of unharvested vegetation. The tidal marsh, of course, supporta a thick growth of salt-hay and reeds (Ibid. 1975: 17, 66, 71, 77, 81) . The dirt farm roads (A, L, M, R, V) which transect the project area offered good to excellent surface visibility. Roads T and V, however, only offered poor surface visibility. -10- f .

Richmond Creek Farms Subdivision superimposed on the Soil Survey Suffolk County, New York (United States Department of Agriculture Soil Conservation Ser— vice 1975 : Maps 8 and 9) PREHISTORY There are many environmental factors in and around the Richmond Creek Farms subdivision which are conducive to prehistoric exploitation. The most important environmental resource is the creek itself: Potable water, a necessary element for human sustenance, would have been available in the form of groundwater seepage. The low salinity of the creek is also conducive to the proliferation of shellfish, a major sustenance resource of the aborigines. Local fauna, including migratory birds, are also attracted to tidal wetlands thereby expanding the available sustenance resources. The subdivision is also located on the northeasterly shore of the westerly branch which, during the prehistoric era, was protected from the coastal winter elements by a dense forest. Various standard sources were researched for recorded aboriginal sites within and/or near the subject subdivision. Our earliest source of information (Parker 1920) indicates three areas of prehistoric sensitivity: Site #14 was a burial site (in which pottery was also found) located about half a mile east of the village of Southold. This would place the site about 2.7 miles east of the project area. Parker also placed red Xs over Great Hog Neck and Richmond Creek -12- to indicate site sensitivity. His Site #15 is described as a village site on the opposite shore of the bay and near School 5. However, neither of these Xs is numbered Site #15. In addition, attempts to locate School 5, mentioned in Parker's reference, were unsuccessful . The Suffolk County Archaeological Association has recorded sites all along the south shore of the north fork in the vicinity of the bays and tidal creeks. William Golder, an officer of the Incorporated Long Island Chapter of the New York State Archaeological Association, claimed that deceased members Goddard and Booth had collected prehistoric artifacts from the Richmond Creek area. A village site existed on the Emerson/Waters farm east of the mouth of Richmond Creek (about 0.6 miles southeast of the project area) . Another village site existed on the west side of Indian Neck Road (about 0.2 miles west of the project area) . However, Golder knew of no particular site or artifact collection from the specific project area. Mrs. Dale Grattan, who resides in the house surrounded by the Richmond Creek Farms subdivision, reported finding a few "arrowheads" (projectile points) , but no additional information was available since their whereabouts are unknown. Although no specific, previously recorded information exists on the prehistory of Richmond Creek Farms subdivision, it is clear that the project area was never archaeologically surveyed. •sauso0 gs9m4gnos SIT Is uOTsuagxs us gqTM podequ-1 uaaq anvq og Ssvaddv IT :aeno4 agq ;o uoTgssn6T;uo0 POTTO40P eq4 84ON -aOuapTSas ..SasTnbS uTATd.. 8qg IT POTTagvT (6 Pus 8 Sasn6TS) SeTgs Ssaag £L8T eq.L •..SasTnbS •y., asng0nsgs gTgg POTTOgRT (L asn6Tg) des 80040 899T aqy •vans goarosd aqg ;o sauso0 190944sou 04g uT4gTm asngonsgs paT;TguapTun us ST dee LansnS geso0 90494S POITun 869T aqg uo 09TV -dew sq-4 uo pagou asam SuOTSTATp PTOTY ou ' (gasv sq-4 ;o uOTgTpuO0 paseaTO aqg Lq passaYuT Ss) 96ST og soTsd 49eaTg6 pagRATgTno Sam sass g0aposd sq-4 gvgq sTgagosd ST IT gSnoggTd -PapooM TTT19 Sam PsTgg ATsaggnos aqg ATuo !

In addition to these outbuildings,two others are noted far enough south of the Grattan residence (not located within the project area) to indicate possible structural and/or archaeological sensitivity within the project area. On this 1884 map, only the southeast corner of the project area remains wooded. The rest of the land is divided into fields. Note that the row of fields on the easterly side of the project area are uniformly laid out in 3± acre rectangles, while those along the creek vary (4 to 6 acres) . The roadway which parallels the east property line is still discernible within the field (see Figure 2: "T") . However, south of roadway "R", it is heavily overgrown. The Hyde and Company map (Figure 11) shows the residence in the northeast corner of the property as belonging to "W. Rogers" . (The 1897 Lain and Healy directory lists "W.H. Rogers" as a farmer. ) The 1904/44 United States Geological Survey (Figure 12) simply shows an unnamed structure. The 1906 E.Belcher Hyde map (Figure 13) shows the owner as "D. Moore". The 1909 E.Belcher Hyde atlas (Figure 14) shows the "Geo.H. Wells" residence in association with four outbuildings which lie to the south. The 1942 Van Tuyl survey map (Figure 15) only indicates "farm buildings" in this vicinity. At that time, the project area was still part of the George H. Wells estate. The 1943 United States Geological Survey map (Figure 16) shows the residence (unnamed) in association with only two outbuildings, the easterly -15- one of which appears to lie outside the project area. The 1956 United States Geological Survey map (Figure 1) only shows the residence (unnamed) . The contemporary topographic map (Young and Young, May 29, 1985 -- Figures 2 through 4) shows a residence in association with three outbuildings to the south; the southerly one is labelled "barn". Wella Road, part of which borders the project area on the South, was constructed sometime between 1943 and 1956. Only the elbow (a dirt boat launch) is indicated on the 1943 United States Geological Survey map (Figure 16) . -16- PROJECT AREA , T l•- • �t t M M M 1 1 I• `��w ►-. - M a`• `tom �r 1 ,- 1� 1 �1 .r• �� • . • •• — _ - r .... _ %i • � ^\ ✓. - rte^' • tft +1 _ _ s t Scale 1 in. = 785 ft. + Figure 6.

Richmond Creek Farms superimposed on the 1943 United States Geological Survey map. -27- FIELD INVESTIGATION Since no previous cultural resource inventory was conducted within the Richmond Creek Farms subdivision, a walk-over reconnaissance was conducted in conjunction with subsurface testing in those areas where potential aboriginal and/or historical site sensitivity was indicated as a result of our research. In the case of Richmond Creek Farms, the area east of the creek was considered the most potentially sensitive relative to aboriginal cultural resources. Historically, the most potentially sensitive areas were the northeast corner of the project area and the area just south of the Grattan parcel , as well as areas adjacent to historic roadways (i .e. pre-1838 Main Road and the pre-1884 farm road -"T"- which parallels the easterly property line) . As described within the NATURAL_ENVIRONMENT section of this report, the dirt farm roadways (A, L, M, R, V) which transect the project area offered good to excellent surface visibility. Roads T and U, however, offered poor surface visibility. Surface visibility within the flatter topography of the project area is almost totally obscured by unharvested wheat. However, the sloping topography which lies to the east of the marshland and is also fallow, has surface visibility that is good to excellent due to only a sparse growth of unharvested vegetation. Since evidence of prehistoric lithic manufacturing was -28- diacovered on the sloping terrain east of the creek during our reconnaissance, the area between roads A and M were reconnoitered in 100 foot east/west transects (B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K) from which surface artifacts were collected. In addition to this more intense reconnaissance, a traxcavator was employed to expose additional soils along transects N, O, P, O, S, W and Y. These 8 foot-wide transects were reconnoitered again following a heavy rainfall which, in some instances, exposed additional lithic materiel . In addition, sixty-four subsurface tests were shovel excavated to subsoil depths within the project area. Their average dimensions measured 1 .5 x 1 .3 feet. -29- EVALUATION_OF_CULTURAL_RESOURCES Subsurface-Testing Within the fellow field areas of the subdivision, our subsurface testing indicated a plow zone of about 1 foot * . Very little cultural material was retrieved from the plow zone as e result of this testing: TH 1 : hard clam shell (Venus_mercenaria) TH 3: small terracotta sherd (contemporary pottery) TH 25: coal fragments TH 26: 2 small pieces of coal TH 27: coal and the base of a light purple bottle (late nineteenth to early twentieth century) TH 28: tiny whiteware (c. 1820 - 1920 ceramic) and brick fragments TH 29: coal and brick fragments TH 45: brick fragment TH 58: coal fragment TH 59: ribbed mussel fragment (Brachidontes__desissus elicatulus) The majority of this cultural material , as per the test hole locations, concentrated in the northerly section of the project area (i .e. Lots 2, 4, 38, 39, 40, 41 , 42) or the section adjacent to the farm buildings. Fragmentation and disbursement of the artifacts are, of course, due to plow action. -30- Some cultural material had filtered down through the plow zone in the following instances: TH 10: ribbed blue mussel fragment (Stratum II, 0.95 to 1 .4 feet below the surface) TH 41 : 2 pieces of charcoal (Stratum III , 1 .4 to 2.7 feet below the surface) TH 52: 1 piece of charcoal (Stratum II , 0.9 to 1 .3 feet below the surface) The following subsurface tests, excavated within the marsh, also yielded cultural material : TH 34: charcoal fragments (Stratum V, 1 .05 to 1 . 10 feet below the surface) TH 61 : tiny whiteware sherd (Stratum II , 0.3 to 0.45 feet below the surface) TH 64: window glass (Strata V and VI , 0.7 to 1 . 1 feet below the surface) A contemporary surface midden (of scallop shell (Pecten irridians) and glass) was noted eroding out of the creek bank in the vicinity of Lot 22. TH44 yielded additional contemporary cul- tural material to 1 .0 ft . below the surface withina dark brown stratum of silt, sand and clay. The following subsurface tests yielded lithic (stone) flakes, the result of prehistoric stone tool manufacturing: TH 46: possible secondary quartz flake (plow zone) -32- Half of an ovate-shaped quartz humpback blade (Figure 20B) . Diamond-shaped quartz humpback blade (Figure 21) . Part of a trianguloid quartz humpback blade (Figure 22) . Three pieces of worked quartz on which chipping is evident. Five pieces of worked quartz with part of the atone cortex (outer surface) still intact. Eighty secondary quartz flakes. These are the stone chips struck from a cobble during stone tool manufacturing . They do not have the outer surface or cortex in evidence. Thirty-seven primary quartz flakes. These are also stone chips struck from a cobble during stone tool manufacturing but they do have part of the atone cortex still intact. The surficial soil between Transect A and Richmond Creek is sandy loam with a heavy content of quartz gravel and cobbles. The soil at this lower level is poor in humus, hence the sparse vegetation. The slope of the terrain (3 to 8 percent) results in some erosion thereby exposing the gravel and cobbles and prohibiting the development of a protective humus layer. But more so, flood tides throughout the ages have washed out the humus layer. The exposed gravel and cobbles are the raw materials from which aborigines manufactured their stone tools making this location an ideal spot for such an activity. Small fragments of scattered hard clam shell and, occasionally, oyster shell (Crassostrea_v_irginica) were also noted during our reconnaissance of the site area. It is difficult, however, to discern whether they are the result of deposition by -33- aborigines, historic liming or seagulls. In addition, four whelk (Busycon species) columella (Figure 23) were recovered during the reconnaissance. This center spiral of the whelk was the raw material utilized in the manufacture of wampum (a poet-contact medium of exchange) . The spiral was cut into smeller beads and usually strung. However, the recovered columella appear to be naturally eroded . Two red hematite concretions were also recovered. These are natural concretions of hard and soft stone. Aborigines scraped the softer stone, mixed it with animal fat in order to produce a suspension with the red pigmentation and utilized it as paint or dye. Both recovered samples also appear to have been naturally eroded. No evidence of aboriginal encampment (i .e. food refuse middens, cley pottery sherds, refuse or fire pits) were encountered . The site, therefore, appears to have been primarily a location for stone tool manufacturing (see APPENDIX_A: New York State Prehistoric Archaeological Site Inventory Form and Figure 24) . -34- M f I { R Figure 17.

Helen Stepenoaki , whose father farmed the project area, recalled that it was one-end-a-half stories high, covered with wood shingles and had a brick cellar/foundation. At the time of their tenure, however, this structure was utilized by the farmhands. In addition, Mrs. Stepenoski's mother kept chickens there and utilized the cellar for root storage. Our reconnaissance of the area and subsurface testa 48 through 50 didn't reveal any surficial or subsurface evidence of this structure. Since these testa indicate that the northeast corner of the project area hes been covered with fill, which protects subsurface features, any additional construction-related terrain alterations should be monitored by an archaeologist. ST 4B, a potato barn, is comprised of a subterranean basement of crude, unmarked brick and a contemporary superstructure. However, visible underneath the contemporary asphalt roofing shingles are weathered wood shingles. An outbuilding does not appear in this vicinity on the 1873 Beers atlas (Figure 9) but does not appear on the 1884 United States Coast and Geodetic Survey map (Figure 10) . Therefore, its possible date of =onstruction may lie sometime between 1873 and 1884. -41- ST 3, which appears to be a residence converted into a work shed/storage facility, was probably moved on-site from elsewhere. The five-aided decorative wood shingles within the north and south peaks plus the reaidentiel-type windows (2 over 2 over 2 in the north and south peaks and two 2 over 2 windows on the west side) possibly indicate its original use as a residence. In addition, the structure is set upon a contemporary concrete slab, a foundation-type not contemporaneous with the style of the structure. Although this has not been confirmed, the structure may have been moved sometime after 1956, for no structure appears on the United States Geological Survey map (Figure 1) of that year in this vicinity. ST 2 is a small barn with shed extensions to the north and east, set upon wood posts. An outbuilding is first shown at this location on the 1884 United States Coast Survey map (Figure 10) although this structure does not appear to be that old. ST 4A, the "John A. Sepenoski , Long Island Potatoes" structure, is a contemporary building attached to the older potato barn (ST 4B) (see attached APPENDIX B: New York State ---------------------------- Building/Structure_Inventory_EgEng for additional details) . The outbuildings shown south of the Grattan residential plot (which formerly encompassed an old farmhouse that was moved to the west) on the 1884 United States Coast and Geodetic Survey map (Figure 10) are not extant. Our reconnaissance and subsurface testing of the area only revealed scattered atone, brick and concrete fragments disbursed as a result of plowing. -42- T The prehistoric site area (Figure 24) , located within the subdivision between Transect A and the creek, yielded artifacts representing various stages of stone tool manufacturing (from flakes to parts of finished tools) . As previously stated, the surficial soil between Transect A and Richmond Creek is sandy loam with a heavy content of quartz gravel and cobbles. The slope of the terrain (3 to 8 percent) results in some erosion thereby exposing the gravel and cobbles and prohibiting the development of :bsence protective humus layer. Another contributing factor to the of a humus layer is tidal flooding during storms. The exposed gravel and cobbles are the raw materials from which aborigines manufactured their stone tools, making this spot an ideal location for such an activity. The prehistoric site area extends into the building envelopes of Lots 20 through 28. Within the 75 foot setback from the wetlands, terrain alteration (i .e. stripping and grading) should be restricted. Terrain alterations which occur within the prehistoric site area east of the wetlands setback should be monitored by a professional archaeologist. The pre-1838 Squires-Rogers-Moore-Wella structure has been torn down and replaced with a 1951 residence, which is located at the northeast corner of the project area. As previously stated, since our testing indicates that this corner has been covered with protective fill, any additional construction-related terrain -43- alteration in this vicinity should also be monitored by a professional archaeologist. The above two areas have been deemed the most prehistorically and historically significant within the project area although documentation of a subdivision's land use through contemporary times is as significant in that this documentation adds to the compendia of local history. Although prehistoric, historic and contemporary documentation of an area's exploitation is often times interpreted as a means to prevent further exploitation, its contribution to local history far outweighs imagined prohibitions. Once the physical evidence of our past is obliterated, it is lost forever. The cultural resource inventory is the means by which this past can be remembered, if not physically, then atleast in documentary form. -44- TABLE_I__SURFACE_FINDS_ALONG_TRANSECTS The numbers which follow the artifact descriptions are map locations on Figures 2, 3, 4 and 24 (i .e.
