PATTERSON, SCTM #1000-9.-3-6 This application is to reconstruct an existing pier consisting of a landward 6' wide by ±34 linear foot long pile supported pier to an 8' wide by ±50 linear foot long pier to a hinged ramp to a new 12'x14' floating dock with ladder secured by four restraint piles; four (4) existing tie-off piles; pier to include rails on both sides, and water/electric utilities; and to maintain the existing ±265 linear feet of stone armor shore protection, resetting stone that have been displaced as necessary. The proposed action has been reviewed under Chapter §268, Waterfront Consistency Review of the Town of Southold Town Code and the Local Waterfront Revitalization Program (LWRP) Policy Standards. Based upon the information provided on the LWRP Consistency Assessment Form submitted to this department, as well as the records available to me, it is my recommendation that the proposed action is CONSISTENT with the policies of the LWRP as follows: Policy 4. Minimize loss of life, structures, and natural resources from flooding and erosion 4.1 Minimize losses of human life and structures from flooding and erosion hazards. D. Use hard structural erosion protection measures for control of erosion only where: 2. Vegetative approaches to controlling erosion are not effective Policy 6. Protect and restore the quality and function of the Town of Southold's ecosystem. 6.3. Protect and restore tidal and freshwater wetlands. A. Comply with statutory and regulatory requirements of the Southold Town Board of Trustees laws and regulations for all Andros Patent and other lands under their jurisdiction The proposed stone material used for erosion control could be defined as a riprap pursuant to Town Code Chapter §275-2 Definitions: RIPRAP A layer, facing or protective mound of rubble or stones randomly placed to prevent erosion, scour, or sloughing of a structure or embankment; also the stone used for this purpose The maintenance of resetting displaced stone in the riprap revetment is consistent with Policy 4.1.D.2, which calls for using hard structural erosion protection measures for erosion when vegetative approaches are not effective. The wetland boundary of the parcel is located in the high-risk AE FEMA flood zone. In this case, a vegetative approach would not work because of the already existing riprap revetment. The proposed pier could be defined as a dock pursuant to Town Code Chapter §275-2 Definitions: DOCK Any permanent or seasonal structure, except a building, located or proposed to be located on lands abutting or comprised of freshwater or tidal wetlands or connected to a bulkhead or the upland and extending over the water's surface, designed to secure vessels and provide access from the shore to a body of water. For the purpose of this chapter, this term shall also include the associated structures necessary to cross wetlands and adjacent natural areas. The term "dock"includes the terms "wharves," "piers," "fixed docks," "docks,"or "floats." Additionally, the proposed access ramp could be defined as part of the residential dock pursuant to Town Code Chapter §275-2 Definitions: RESIDENTIAL DOCK Any fixed dock and/or floating dock designed or constructed as a continuous unit to provide access to the surface waters from a lot that is zoned for residential use. The term "dock"shall include all associated structures such as ramps and mooring piles. The proposed action is consistent with Policy 6.3.A, which states that actions must comply with the Southold Town Board of Trustees' laws and regulations. 2 The length of the proposed reconstructed dock complies with Town Code Chapter §275- 11 C(2)(b)[2], which states that no dock length shall exceed 1/4 the total width of the water body, including the dimensions of the vessel attached. The proposed action is located in the Hay Harbor off of Fishers Island and meets this requirement. Pursuant to Town Code Chapter §275-11 C(2)(c)[1] which states the regulations for residential docks, the proposed action meets the following regulations: [a] Only one mooring or dock may be permitted per residential lot. [c] In determining the permitted length of a proposed residential dock, the Trustees shall seek to maintain lengths consistent with the other docks (i.e., pier line) in the waterway which meet the requirements of this chapter. The proposed action includes the reconstruction of the dock on the parcel and is behind the pier line of the dock on the adjacent property. Let it be noted, to be compliant with the regulations for the Town Code Chapter §275- 11 C(2)(c)[1] Residential docks, a need must be demonstrated for the following: [b] If any part of a residential dock structure includes a float or floating dock, the float or floating dock portion shall be designed so that, with the exception of the pilings: fl]It is no larger than six feet wide and 20 feet long except on Fishers Island if the need is demonstrated; or of equal square footage as determined by the Trustees, [d]Pilings shall not project more than three feet above the surface of a dock or catwalk unless a need for greater height is demonstrated. [g] Only one handrail is permitted on a residential dock unless the need for two is demonstrated. Rails shall not be higher than three feet above the surface of the dock and posts shall not be placed closer than six feet on center or larger than four inches by four inches in dimension. The end of the proposed residential dock contains a floating dock that is 12 ft. x 14 ft. located on Fishers Island. The proposed action dock includes piles that are 4 ft. above the dock surface and a handrail on each side. The proposed action has been reviewed under Chapter §268, Waterfront Consistency Review of the Town of Southold Town Code and the Local Waterfront Revitalization Program (LWRP) Policy Standards. 3 Glenn Goldsmith,President f {� �,f ;'..` Town Hall Amnex A.Nicholas Krupski,Vice President �f � f�1'ty 54375 Route 25 Eric Sepenoski t� k:# P.O.Box 1179 Liz Gillooly 4� Southold,New York 11971 Elizabeth Peeples S ,Gw , �zy Telephone(631) 765-1892 Fax(631) 765-6641 Cou BOARD OF TOWN TRUSTEES TOWN OF SOUTHOLD This Section For Office Use Coastal Erosion Permit Application PP `�'_._' - E �� PV Wetland Permit A lication PD 4 Administrative Permit AUG 1 7 2026 -Amendment/Transfer/Extensio Received Application: a-� Received Fee: $ U6 Southold Town Completed App ication: 8 ouo Board of Trustees Incomplete:_ SEQRA Classification: Type I Type II Unlisted Negative Dec, Positive Dec.

The question of whether an action may be significant is not always easy to answer. Frequently, there are aspects of a project that are subjective or unmeasurable. It is also understood that those who determine significance may have little or no formal knowledge of the environment or may not be technically expert in environmental analysis. In addition, many who have knowledge in one particular area may not be aware of the broader concerns affecting the question of significance. The full EAF is intended to provide a method whereby applicants and agencies can be assured that the determination process has been orderly, comprehensive in nature, yet flexible enough to allow introduction of information to fit a project or action. Full EAF Components: The full EAF is comprised of three parts: Part 1: Provides objective data and information about a given project and its site. By identifying basic project data,it assists a reviewer in the analysis that takes place in Parts 2 and 3. Part 2: Focuses on identifying the range of possible impacts that may occur from a project or action. It provides guidance as to whether an impact is likely to be considered small to moderate or whether it is a potentially-large impact. The form also identifies whether an impact can be mitigated or reduced. Part 3: If any impact in Part 2 is identified as potentially-large, then Part 3 is used to evaluate whether or not the impact is actually important.

The project will not result in any large and important impact(s) and, therefore, is one which will not have a significant impact on the environment,therefore a negative declaration will be prepared. B. Although the project could have a significant effect on the environment, there will not be a significant effect for this Unlisted Action because the mitigation measures described in PART 3 have been required, therefore a CONDITIONED negative declaration will be prepared.* i C.

Page 1 0 of 21 PART 2 -PROJECT IMPACTS AND THEIR MAGNITUDE Responsibility of Lead Agency General Information(Read Carefully) In completing the form the reviewer should be guided by the question: Have my responses and determinations been reasonable? The reviewer is not expected to be an expert environmental analyst. The Examples provided are to assist the reviewer by showing types of impacts and wherever possible the threshold of magnitude that would trigger a response in column 2. The examples are generally applicable throughout the State and for most situations. But,for any specific project or site other examples and/or lower thresholds may be appropriate for a Potential Large Impact response,thus requiring evaluation in Part 3. ! The impacts of each project,on each site,in each locality,will vary. Therefore,the examples are illustrative and have been offered as guidance. They do not constitute an exhaustive list of impacts and thresholds to answer each question. ! The number of examples per question does not indicate the importance of each,question. ! In identifying impacts,consider long term,short term and cumulative effects. Instructions(Read carefully) a. Answer each of the 20 questions in PART 2. Answer Yes if there will be any impact. b. Maybe answers should be considered as Yes answers. C. If answering Yes to a question then check the appropriate box(column 1 or 2)to indicate the potential size of the impact. If impact threshold equals or exceeds any example provided,check column 2. If impact will occur but threshold is lower than example,check column 1. d. Identifying that an Impact will be potentially large(column 2)does not mean that it is also necessarily significant. Any large impact must be evaluated in PART 3 to determine significance. Identifying an impact in column 2 simply asks that it be-looked at further. e. If reviewer has doubt about size of the impact then consider the impact as potentially large and proceed to PART 3. f. If a potentially large impact checked in column 2 can be mitigated by change(s)in the project to a small to moderate impact, also check the Yes box in column 3. A No response indicates that such a reduction is not possible. This must be explained in Part 3. 1 2 3 Small to Potential Can Impact Be Moderate Large Mitigated by Impact Impact Project Change Impact on Land 1.

GENERAL-APPLICABLE TO ALL PROJECTS 1. Explain the need for, and purpose of, the proposed work. To provide access to navigable waters for recreational boating. 2. Provide the names and addresses of property owners adjacent to your work site (if not shown on the application form or project drawings). North:.Thomas Gailard, 151 Tremont St, Apt 18-E, Boston MA'02111 .South: Marguerite Purnell, 1,25 Popple Swamp Road, Cornwall Bridge, CT 06754 (Please note that depending upon the nature and extent of your project, you may be requested-to provide the names and addresses of additional property owners proximate to your project site to ensure proper coordination.) 3. Photographs of the project site should be submitted. For projects in tidal areas, photographs of the'waterway vicinity should be taken at low tide. Using a separate copy of your plan view, indicate the location and direction of each photograph as well as the date and time at which the photograph- was taken. Provide a sufficient number of photographs so as to provide a clear understanding of conditions on and proximate to your project site. Photographs showing existing site features and resources are attached. 4. Provide. a copy of any environmental impact statement, or any other environmental report which was prepared for your project. See attached narrative, Short Environmental form and EFH worksheets. 5., Provide a thorough discussion of alternatives to your proposal. This discussion should include, but not necessarily be limited to, the "no action" alternative and alternative(s);resulting in less disturbance to waters of the United States. For filling projects in waters of the United States, including wetlands, your alternatives discussion should demonstrate that there are no practicable alternatives to your proposed filling and that your project meets with current mitigation policy (Le-. avoidance, minimization and compensation). " Alternatives considered included wider, higher, lower, shorter and longer piers, fixed pier versus floating docks, boat lifts, utilities, different locations on the site, use of open grate decking, orientation of docking facilities and the like, all of which are discussed in the narrative. The proposed configuration provides for optimal berthing, minimal environmental disturbances and no adverse impact to navigation or Public Trust access to or use of the stretch of shoreline. The project has been reviewed in detail to make sure that the proposed construction techniques were suitable and appropriate for the site and scope of work and anticipated environmental impacts would be minimal preserving the site's habitat quality and avoiding despoliation of tidal wetlands vegetation and submerged aquatic vegetation around this site. A detailed discussion of the alternatives follows: ® Length- The length, of the pier has been determined based on the unique features along the shore front which require the pier to span over vegetation, pass over a boulder strewn shoreline running along the near shore edge which is almost devoid of tidal wetlands, across very shallow waters, and eventually stopping at to water depth of approximately 4 feet (a stipulated standard by the NYS DEC). The width of the pier is shown as eight feet, this is the existing size and was previously authorized. • Height- The height of the dock is dictated by two different features related to the rocky shorefront and nearshore waters. One is keeping the dock high enough so it will not adversely impact the growth of tidal wetlands vegetation or submerged aquatic vegetation. The second is keeping the height of the pier low enough so that the end of the pier can function properly in low tides for boat boarding access while providing adequate slope to follow terrain and without excessive slope which might make the use of the pier hazardous in slippery conditions. • Fixed Pier Full Length- The fixed pier length is the best option for this site and extends into a navigable depth.The floating dock then extends out to a depth of 4 feet mean low water and will remain the same size as the existing and previously authorized float. The pier is certainly preferable from the owner's perspective based on boarding and disembarking ease and safety considering the typical sea state and sea conditions. • Open Grate Vs. Timber Decking- Open grate decking could be used for the full length of this pier in order to minimize shading, however, there is no eelgrass documented in the area neither currently or historically. ' • Construction Materials- It's anticipated that the pier will be built out of Southern Yellow Pine, pressure treated with CCA Type C in accordance with the study conducted by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation in the year 2000. The piles may be pressure treated Southern Yellow Pine or Greenheart. There will be (24) 12 inch Class B piles in the complete dock facility and seven tie off piles to secure the boat in the slip and they will be driven with a pneumatic hammer. Town of Southold regulation do not allow use of pressure treated decking-so the deck will be hard woo or"thru flow" • Environmental Resources- The environmental resources at this site include sparse/sporadic, patchy tidal wetland vegetation. Other than that, the wood pile and timber construction will provide an open unencumbered structure which will not preclude or in any way inhibit free water flow and circulation or public access along the beach, consistent with the existing site conditions and State and local regulations. There are a number of US Fish & Wildlife eel grass avoidance and impact minimization efforts undertaken in the design o They are as f this dock facility: follows: Policy 1-In-water work should.be avoided during the eelgrass growing season from April 15 to October 31. Documented eelgrass growth areas have been avoided by the proposed dock facility. Work can be scheduled in the fall through 'spring :to comply with this criterion if the Permits are received in a timely manner. E ➢ Policy 2-Construct the fixed pier a maximum of four feet wide to minimize shading. The;pier,all, the;way out to the float will be reconstructed,within the same existing footprint which was permitted and has existed in Hay Habor for nearly 40 years. Policy. 3- Construct the dock a minimum of four feet above the surface of the-water measured at Mean Nish Water and over the surface of the marsh with height measured from the bottom of the stringers; not.the,top of the deck. The standard for deck height is to keep the structure 4 feet above the surface,of the mean high-water-elevation. The decking will be rebuilt at the existing deck elecation. ➢ Policy 4-To minimize the risk of propeller dredging and scour, extend the fixed portion of the pier so that the water depths in the mooring area are a minimum of four feet deep measured at Mean Low Water, or if the SAV bed extends further than the proposed dock, extend the dock beyond the vegetation. There was no.-eelgrass noted,in the area of the structure.during the survey work for this project nor has there been any eelgrass beds historically.- '; This site is an active and occasionally relatively high energy.wave zone and as result there is little shoreline vegetation and a lot of exposed boulders. This project is consistent with this policy because the proposed_elevation of the pier is at an acceptable height above the bottom sediments beneath which tidal wetlands`vegetation or even submerged aquatic vegetation may spread if other conditions are suitable. Policy 5- Eliminate the ramp and float to reduce shading effects: The ramp and floating dock will be rebuilt within the same previously authorized footprint and] the same location where it has existed for nearly 40:years: Policy 6- Install a lift.for each vessel moored at.the dock unless not practicable (e.g. sailboat). The boat(s) should be moored in the lift(s) when not in use This is to reduce shading effects, minimize the potential for scour, and reduce the potential for the bottom of,a docked boat to damage the SAV bed. The criterion in this case emphasizes the use of a boat lift. The prohibition is related to Tidal Wetlands Law No. 6 issued by the'Town of Southold. In other projects, we have attempted to get authorization for a boat lift to be approved by the Town of Southold, however, the Tidal Wetlands Law No. 6 prohibits the installation of a boat lift unless the applicant owns the harbor bottom. In this case, the applicant does not own the harbor bottom and,therefore, a lift is not permittable under Town`of Southold law. Policy 7- To minimize'.potentiaf.for scour; in-water construction eauipment.should only transit within the work area footprint at periods of high tide while construction is occurring within eelgrass beds. The prevailing water depth in the area where the barge will be set at the end of the pier early in the year where the pier is to be built 4 to 6 feet deep. Pile driving_and setting heavy timbers will be accomplished in a week to three.weeks, weather permitting. The potential for scour in this area is negligible at this point. The work will be done at a high tide so that there will be a water depth of 6 to 7 feet. ➢ .Policy 8- To avoid minim izingimpacts, GIS layers of mapped eel-grass beds within the project area should be provided to the contractor so they are aware of the eelgrass locations at all times. • There will 'be no significant adverse_-impacts to air quality as a-result of this structure and the construction of the dock should not diminish overall environmental considerations in Fishers- Island Sound and will protect water quality, the quality of the ecosystem and minimize or avoid degradation of environmental resources. • The NYS DEC prepared a study showing that pressure=treated Southern`Yellow'Pine timber product construction materials are suitable for this type of project except for decking which will be of untreated Woods or composite(or,plastic) materials. • Boulder Relocation- It is possible that some boulder relocation might be required by this project because of the number, of boulders„in this desirable path considering least resource impact. Piles will be tipped as necessary and driven to produce the alignment shown on the permit drawings. 'Minor --variations in longitudinal spacing and alignment can be tolerated in the construction process but will yield a straight pier will-pile tips '10-15 feet into the bearing`state. - If boulder relocation is required,the boulders will be set on unvegetated bottom sediments in the pathof the,pier between bents to keep the environmental impacts localized. DREDGING PROJECTS Answer the following if your project involves dredging. 1. Indicate the estimated volume of material to be dredged and the depth (below mean low water) to which dredging would occur. Would there be overdepth dredging? Dredging,`per se-, is not required in this project, however, boulders may have to be moved:from the pier bent and berthing area and relocated to the footprint of the per consistent with the benthic characteristics of the site. The dock system has been laid out in its current location and configuration to avoid any dredging requirements. The'minimum prescribed water depth of + 2 feet, as generally recommended by the US ALOE,-and 4 feet as recommended by.the NYS DEC has been reached: This is an. exposed site such that the boat must be,berthed bow out, preferably to the north or slightly north west to minimize forces on the pier or boat. 2. You can apply for a ten-year permit for maintenance dredging. If you wish to apply for a ten-year permit, please provide the-number of additional dredging events during the ten-year life of the permit and the amount of-material to be removed during future events. No dredging is required or requested. 3; Indicate of your drawings the dewatering area (if applicable) and disposal site for the dredged material jexcept landfill sites). Submit a sufficient number of photographs of the dewatering'and disposal sites as applicable so as to provide a clear indication of existing conditions. For ten-year_ maintenance dredging permits; indicate the dewatering/disposal sites for future.dredging events, if known: Not Applicable 4. Describe the method of dredging (i.e. clamshell,' dragline, etc.) and the expected duration of.dredging. Not applicable for dredging. If boulder relocation is required, a clamshell bucket, grapples or digging bucket will be,utilized to dislodge-and reset the boulder. 5. Indicate the physical nature of the material to :be dredged (i.e. sand, silt, clay, etc.) and provide estimated percentages of the various constituents if available. For beach nourishment projects, grain size analysis data is required. Not Applicable 6. Describe the method of dredged material containment (i.e. hay bales, embankment, bulkhead, etc.) and whether return flow from the dewatering/disposal site would reenter any waterway. Also indicate if there would be any barge overflow. Not Applicable MOORING FACILITIES Answer the following if your project includes the construction or rehabilitation of recreational mooring facilities. 1. It is generally recommended that any fixed piers and walk ramps be limited to four feet in width, and that floats be-limited to eight feet in width and-rest at least two feet above the waterway bottom at mean low water. Terminal floats.at private, noncommercial facilities should be limited to 29 feet in length. If you do not believe your proposal can meet with these recommendations,.please provide the reason(s). The proposed pier will reach 4 foot water depth, at MLW conditions and will be rebuilt with the same 8 foot wide width. This dock has.been a longstanding structure in Hay Harbor and will be rebuilt within the same footprint. The float will remain and be rebuilt at the exact same 12' x 14' size. 2. Using your plan view, show to scale the location(s), position(s) and size(s) .(including length, beam and draft) of vessel(s) to be moored at the proposed facility; including those of transient vessel(s) if known. A typical vessel is shown on the plan view of the application drawings. The boat will probably be a motorboat 25 to 30 feet or so in length, beam of 10 feet or so and draft of 3 feet-f-l-. 3. For commercial mooring sites such as marinas, indicate the capacity of the facility and indicate on the .plan view the location(s) of any proposed fueling and/or sewage p p pumpout t planned, please discuss the rationale um out facilities. If um out facilities are no below and indicate the distance to the nearest available pumpout station. Not applicable-There are no pump out facilities and no fueling facilities proposed at this site. Those functions are taken care of elsewhere on Fishers'Island provided by commercial pumpout operator from the mainland, however, any boat using their facility could and would use the pump out facilities at local marinas or.where fuel is sold, . 4. Indicate- on your plan view the distance to adjacent marine structures, if any are proximate and show the locations and dimensions of such structures. There are a:half dozen dock structures near the site, the nearest being 200 feet away, to the west. 5. Discuss the need for wave protection,at the proposed facility. Please be advised that if a permit is issued, you would be required to recognize that'the mooring facility may be subject to wave action from wakes of passing vessels, whose operations would not be required to be modified -Issuance of a permit would not relieve you of ensuring the integrity of the.=authorized structure(s) and the United States would not be held _responsible for damages to the structure(s) and vessel(s) moored thereto from wakes from passing,vessels. There is no good opportunity for wave protection at this site. Waves from the_prevailing wave field'are from the north/northwest, blocked by the point off North Hill.. Otherwise, waves from the northwesterly to northeasterly of the site are unobstructed in their approach which is why the shoreline consists of boulders the only natural material and formation the waves cannot move. The pier located within the boulder field will be somewhat,protected by the seabed character, otherwise, the angle of the outer pier is-oriented into the prevailing waves direction of-approach. The boulder field will cause many of the northeasterly to easterly waves to break just offshore beneath the higher section of the pier. BULKHEADING/BANK STABILIZATION/FILLING ACTIVITIES Answer the following if your project includes construction of bulkheading (also retaining- walls and seawalls) with backfill, filling of waterslwedands, or any other bank stabilization fills such as riprap, revetments, gabions,.etc. 1. Indicate the total volume of fill (including backfill behind a structure such as a bulkhead) as well as the volume of rill to be placed into ,waters of the United States. The amount of fill in waters of the'United States can be determined by calculating the amount of fill to be placed below the plane of spring high tide in.tidal areas and below ordinary high water in non-tidal areas. The shoreline will remain stabilized by the existing boulder field as it exists naturally which extends landward of the Spring High Tide Linea There is no-proposal to import and place fill in Public Trust waters of the United States. . V 2. Indicate the sources) and type(s) of fill material. There'is no proposed fill to be utilized in this project. 3. Indicate the method of fill placement (i.e. by hand, bulldozer, crane, etc.). Would any temporary fills be required in waterways or wetlands to .provide access for construction equipment? If so, please indicate the area of such waters and/or wetlands to be rifled, and show on the plan and sectional views. Boulders will be:removed from the pile driving area only if required, and removal and resetting will be done mechanically by-crane"operated from the deck of a marine construction barge. The foregoing requests basic information on the most common types of projects requiring Department of the Army permits. It is intended to obviate or reduce_the need for requesting additional information; however, additional information may be requested above and beyond what is requested in this form.

Docko TITLE A eg_nt _DATE, 5 PROPERTY OF THOMAS PATTERSON 84 BELL HILL AVE< FISHERS ISLAND SOUND NARRATIVE STATEMENT&L SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION FOR US ARMY CORPS, NYS DEC,NYS DOS AND TOWN OF SOUTHOLD APPLICATIONS July 2026 GENERAL The applicant, owns parcel 1000-9-3-6 on Bell Hill Ave. located on shoreline Hay Harbor on Fishers Island Sound on Fishers Island. The dock site is gently to moderately sloped rolling terrain, sandy with rock, boulders and gravel earthen materials, sparsely vegetated with grass, brush and ground cover. Attached are application drawings for the reconstruction of an existing dock facility for recreational boating prepared for this project showing the proposed configuration and pertinent details. This supplemental narrative has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Town of Southold, Ordinance No. 6, 2004, and the Waterfront Revitalization Program related to docks and shorefront improvements. In addition, relevant coastal policies under the New York State Coastal Management Act are addressed herein for review by the New York State Department of State and Department of Environmental Conservation. DESCRIPTION OF WORD This project is to re-construct a fixed wood pile and timber pier with a flat from the shore out into Hay Harbor in accordance with existing guidelines set forth in the Town of Southold ordinance No. 6, 2004. Boulder relocation may be minimal, at the inner end of the dock facility to provide for safe berthing and avoiding local eelgrass beds. It is envisioned that this structure will be built utilizing the following general sequence and methodology. ➢ The marine contractor will arrive by water with a barge deck mounted crane and push boats. ➢ The existing structure will be carefully demolished. ➢ New piles will be driven starting at the shore landing end of the pier and proceeding northerly at roughly 10-foot intervals to the waterward end of the pier approximately 50 linear feet from the Apparent High-Water Line. These 30 piles will be wood, driven by double-acting air hammer to a bearing capacity of about 20 tons and pull-out resistance of approximately 10 tons. This generally results in about 10 to 15 feet of embechnent of the 1 pile in the bearing stratum. These piles will be Class B 12-inch nominal diameter measured at three feet from the butt. ➢ After the piles are installed, split clamps/caps consisting of a pair of pressure treated Southern Pine timbers, 3 x 10 to 4 x 10 nominal dimension,will be double bolted at each pile transversely forming a pile bent. Stringers will be then bolted on the split caps parallel to the length of the pier. ➢ The outer stringer on each side will be bolted or spiked to the pile at each bent to secure it against uplift forces that this pier will typically be exposed to. ➢ After the stringers have been connected to the piles and split clamps, the decking will be installed. In accordance with the Town of Southold's Ordinance No. 6, 2004, this decking will not be CCA pressure-treated Southern Pine, as noted on the drawings. Decking will be oak, cedar hardwood or plastic/composite such as "Thru Flow" "Timber Tech" or similar synthetic, composite or plastic material with the brushed side mounted up. If composites or plastic are used, decking will be either gray, brown or natural in color. Decking can also be "Thru-Flow" over eel grass to minimize shading. Decking will be attached to the stringers utilizing galvanized nails or stainless-steel Phillips or Flathead square-drive stainless steel wood screws about 4 inches long and will be set with a I/4" gap between deck planks. ➢ The over-water decking will run at an elevation of approximately 8 feet MLW at lands end to match the top of bank elevation and at least 5 feet above the existing beach and bottom sediments (not including boulders) until approaching the end where it will transition down at no more than a 10:1 until reaching the level boat dock landing elevation of 6 feet above mean_ low water. See Sheet 4 of the application drawings for the pier profile. ➢ The piles will terminate 42-48 inches above the deck surface and have horizontal rail members mounted to them. ➢ A 12' x 14' floating dock structure will be prefabricated off site and then brought in by barge and secured to the driven piles with pile hoops. ➢ A rail of cedar, oak, hardwood or Timber Tech(plastic) material will be installed for safety. The lower and mid-rail can be timber or cable and both details are shown. ➢ Water and electricity will be in trenches out to the dock in conduits from the home south of the pier, then in the space between the stringers so that trickle chargers on the boat may be powered during tie-ups. The water will allow boats to be rinsed off after usage. A power post with an internal light will be mounted to or near the end of the fixed pier with receptacles to provide power to the boats from extension cords. The power post will also have coiling arms for storage of the electric service cord and hose between uses. Because the dock may be used during the hours of darkness, low-intensity downcast lights will be mounted on staggered piles or dock rail posts to illuminate the deck and the walking surface up the road. This system will be manually, or radio controlled with a shut-off timer so that the lights will only be on when necessary for safety of the users. The 2 { utilities will originate from within the confines of the existing house structure and will not enter the tidal wetlands. ➢ The pier foot will emanate clear of the north side of the roadbed/right of way and will span over the existing natural rocky, non-turf buffer which will not be disturbed except for the driven support piles or posts which would be set in augured holes LOCAL WATERFRONT REVISTALIZATION POLICIES The Town of Southold, LWRP policies that are applicable to the dock proposal are a local refinement of the Long Island Sound Regional Coastal Management Program policies that apply throughout Long Island Sound. The site on Fishers Island could be characterized as natural, rocky shorefront because of the largely undeveloped foreshore between the road and the bay, more or less natural grounds, however, the shoreline is naturally protected to an extent by boulders which apparently constitutes a glacial deposit and sparse but wild riparian buffer vegetation. The developed coast policies are applicable as follows: ➢ Policy 1 is to foster a pattern of development that enhances community character and preserves natural resources to the maximum extent and minimizes adverse impacts on the environment, ➢ Policy 2 is to preserve historic resources, A Policy 3 is to enhance and protect scenic resources and visual quality. This entire structure will be rebuilt as is within the existing footprint of the previously authorized dock. The proposed dock facility is a compromise between permitting standards and regulations of four different local, state and federal agencies balanced against climatic exposures, geographical features and practical boating needs consistent with waterfront development on Fishers Island Sound and in coastal areas. The pier length is a balance of minimal practical length, boulder and eelgrass avoidance and encroachment to reach a depth of water to avoid bottom and resource contact and benthic disturbances in accordance with longstanding permitting standards. The pier is made of suitably sized timbers requiring 12-inch class B piles because of wave exposure and utilizes the materials allowable under Local Law #6. The length is made necessary due to the boulder field and water depth needed to reach navigable water not requiring dredging. The encroachment has been minimized to be consistent with DEC policies, Southold Local Law 46, US ACOE policies and the structure is as low profile as possible, and high enough to avoid or minimize shading of the patch of tidal wetland vegetation and eelgrass, consistent with the safe and efficient use of the waters and consistent with the tidal range and wave field of this site. The length and geometrics of the dock facility will be reviewed with both the Town- Trustees and DEC Marine Habitat Protection Bureau in fair detail to assure consistency with both State and local permitting standards and guidelines. Lighting will be minimal for operational safety and otherwise off. Lights will be utilized only when necessary for boating purposes so that during hours of darkness there will be no adverse lighting impact. NATURAL COAST POLICIES The Natural Coastal Policies are 4 through 8 and require consideration as follows: 3 ➢ Policy 4 -.Minimize loss.of life, structures and natural, resources from flooding and erosion, Policy 5 Protect and improve water quality ➢ Policy 6—Protect and restore the quality and function of the eco-system, ➢ Policy 7—Protect and;improve air quality, Policy 8 — Minimize environmental degradation primarily from solid waste and hazardous;substances. The proposed structure for the recreational boating facility has been laid out and configured to be consistent with the Town and DEC permit requirements for dock structures. As such, it provides alignment and adequate height to clear environmental resources of concern and the materials to be utilized are consistent with Town of Southold's Local Law #6 regarding environmental quality and the.use of pressure-treated Southern Yellow Pine timber components(except,pier decking) in particular. The length and geometries of the dock facility will have been reviewed with both the Town Trustees and DEC Marine Habitat Protection Bureau in fair detail.to assure consistency with both State and local permitting standards and guidelines especially as they relate to eelgrass beds.The north/south alignment will allow sunlight beneath the dock from the east in the morning and west in the afternoon. US Fish &Wildlife policies relating to eelgrass impacts are addressed as follows: ® Policy 1-In-water work should be avoided during the eelgrass growing season from April 15 to October 31. - Documented eelgrass growth.areas do not exist in the project.area and have been avoided entirely. Work can be scheduled in the fall through spring to comply with this criterion if the permits are received in'a timely manner. • Policy 2 Construct the fixed pier a maximum of four feet wide to minimize shading_ This 8-foot wide pier has existing in this location for nearly-40 years and has had no. negative environmental impacts due to shading. Historic eelgrass surveys show no eelgrass in the project area. • Policy 3-Construct the dock a.minimum of four feet above the surface of the water measured at Mean High Water and 4.5 feet over the surface of a'marsh The deck height will be 4 feet above mean high water at elevation 5.0 feet.. The proposed dock construction will take place along the shoreline and is acknowledged to be in a flood prone zone area; there is wave exposure at this site. The new pier will have a minimum deck height of nearly 7 feet above MLW. at the boat slip and will be built to withstand complete submersion and resist`hydrostatic and hydrodynamic'uplift pressure due to flooding and typical wave conditions. • Policy 4 To minimize the risk of propeller dredging and scour, extend the fixed portion of the pier so that the water depths in the mooring area are a minimum of four feet deep measured at Mean Low Water, or if the SAV bed extends further than the proposed-dock extend the dock beyond the vegetation. 4 The fixed portion of the pier extends past four feet of water depth at MLW and there is no SAV in the project area. This site is an energetic and occasionally, a relatively high energy wave zone and, as a result there is little shoreline vegetation and many exposed boulders. This project is consistent with this policy because the proposed elevation of the pier is at an acceptable height above the bottom sediments beneath which tidal wetlands vegetation may spread and submerged aquatic vegetation may grow if other conditions are suitable. The NYS DEC prepared a study showing that pressure-treated Southern Yellow Pine timber product construction materials are suitable for this type of project, except for decking which is governed by the Town regulations, and so the decking will be of untreated woods or composite (or plastic) materials. The configuration shown on the drawings provides an optimum balance between acceptable design and access standards and minimal resource impacts without depriving any vegetation the opportunity to grow and spread. • Policy 5-Eliminate the ramp and float to reduce shading effects. The ramp and float will be rebuilt with the same size and within the same footprint as the previously authorized ramp and float. Water depth exceeds 4-5 feet in this area and no negative environmental effects have been noted in the nearly forty years the structure has exited in this location. • Policy 6- Install a lift for each vessel moored at the dock unless not practicable (e.g.' sailboat). The boat(s) should be moored in the lift(s) when not in use. This is to reduce shading effects, minimize the potential for scour, and reduce the potential for the bottom of a docked boat to damage the SAV bed. The criterion in this case emphasizes the use of a boat lift. There is a prohibition related to Tidal Wetlands Law No. 6 issued by the Town of Southold. In other projects in the past, we have attempted to get a boat lift approved by the Town of Southold, however, the Tidal Wetlands Law No. 6 prohibits the installation of a boat lift unless the applicant owns the harbor bottom. In this case, the applicant does not own (by deed) the harbor bottom and,therefore, a lift is not permittable under Town of Southold law. • Policv 7- To minimize potential for scour, in-water construction equipment should only transit within the work area footprint at periods of high tide while construction is occurring within or inland of the eelgrass bed. The prevailing water depth in the area where the barge will be set at the end of the pier, early in the year when the pier will be built, is 4 to 5 feet deep at low tide. Pile driving and setting heavy timbers will be accomplished in a week to three weeks, weather permitting. The potential for scour in this area is negligible at this point. The work will be done at a high tide so that there will be a water depth of 6 to 7 feet at the end and 5-6 feet for inner sections. • Policy 8- To avoid minimizing impacts GIS layers of mapped eelgrass beds within the project area should be provided to the contractor so they are aware of the eelgrass locations at all times. 5 There is no eelgrass noted at the site and historical eelgrass surveys going back over 25 years have never marked any eelgrass in the project location. PUBLIC COAST POLICIES Policy 9 sets forth a priority to provide for public access and recreational use of coastal waters, public lands and public resources of the Town. This project creates a recreational boating facility for the property with a design that utilizes a full-length pile supported structure elevated so it is consistent with this"access"policy and will not adversely affect public access to or use of Public Trust Lands or Waters of the State.It should be noted that public access to this stretch of shoreline from which the pier will emanate is so irregular and obstructed by boulders that public access along the beach passage is already virtually non-existent because of treacherous rocky beach conditions. WORKING COAST POLICIES The policies of this section relate to the following: ➢ Policy 10 — Protection of the Town's water-dependent uses and promoting new water- dependent uses in suitable locations, ➢ Policy 11 —Promoting sustainable use of living marine resources, ➢ Policy 12—Protect agricultural lands, ➢ Policy 13—Promote appropriate use and development of energy and mineral resources. While most of the Working Coast Policies are not applicable to this site or this type of project, Policy 10, promoting water-dependent uses and the siting of water-dependent uses in appropriate areas is applicable. The proposed project has been laid out to make the most beneficial use of the rough shoreland and locating the dock facility in the most appropriate point of the land where access from the shore will not require excessive structural facilities. The alignment depicted is to minimize impacts on valuable habitat and environmental resources including the minimal tidal wetlands vegetation and eelgrass documented at the site. The length and alignment proposed will keep the boat access out beyond propeller/eel grass contact potential for the most part. The land origin point of this project is private land. The Public Trust Lands and Waters constitutes the area between the Mean High Water and Mean Low Water Lines and the resources from the High Tide Line out. Environmental resources on the beach and shallow subtidal area at this site are limited and site habitat features are being preserved. The potential for growth is being protected by the suitable alignment and height standards dictated by the NYS DEC. There is virtually no public use of the waterfront in this area and the construction of the pier and dock are all waterward above the Apparent High-Water Line and are not likely to influence or change this fact. The Public Trust Lands at this site are obstructed by the boulder field which spans the intertidal and shallow subtidal zone. The purpose of this project is to rebuild and exising pier for water-dependent recreational boating as defined in the Southold LWRP. The dock facility will provide for recreational boating and boat transportation access to the island or the mainland without significant adverse environmental impacts and while substantially protecting the existing habitat and resources. There will be no despoliation of tidal wetlands vegetation and minimal adverse impact to 6 submerged aquatic vegetation at this or adjacent sites related to this project during construction or usage of the dock facility for recreational boating access. This project has been laid out with specific reference and review of the Waterfront Revitalization Program policies and is consistent with these policies. In summary, the dock is typical of recreational boating facilities throughout the area and all along coastal New England. The structure has been minimized in size, height, length and structure to be consistent with other facilities of a similar nature and the minimum necessary components to accommodate safe and efficient boating operations from this site safely in a variety of climatic conditions, while preserving and minimizing, for the most part avoiding wetland and eelgrass impacts. This project does not interfere with public access or use of Public Trust Waters and Lands of the State, it does not interfere with navigation, it will not create soil or sedimentation erosion or scour problems, it does not adversely affect environmental resources and in the area where the facility must span the intertidal zone at the shore line. The facility has been located in the area of rocks where environmental resources are already diminished by climatological factors, so as not to worsen any of these conditions,and avoiding waters fouled by the boulders to the extent that they are not navigable. The height of the structure has been specifically addressed to allow tidal wetlands vegetation of the shoreline to grow if other conditions are conducive to such growth. The dock facility has also been located in accordance with NYS DEC standards reaching out to appropriately deep available water in Hay Harbor to the westerly edge of and substantially inboard edge of eelgrass growth areas, so that the alignment has favored boulder avoidance but if required, the boulders to be removed will be relocated beneath the pier in the existing boulder field so as not to change the site characteristics and not to extend impacts into adjacent resource areas. Dredging will not be an issue in the future, thus further minimizing adverse environmental impacts. More than 95% of the 200-foot shoreline along Hay Harbor will remain in a natural state as a result of these considerations for design. There is no loss of valuable marine and wetland habitat and no water quality degradation because of this project. No natural protective features or processes will be adversely impacted as a result of the,proposed docking facility. The pier is to span over an area of nearshore boulders and there is a natural void of submerged aquatic vegetation specimens in the proposed alignment nearshore. Reference is made to the NYS DEC study from 2000 indicating the suitability of pressure-treated Southern Yellow Pine piles and super-structure components for this type of purpose. In accordance with Local Law 46, decking for the pier deck treads will be of plastics or woods other than Southern Yellow Pine. This project is consistent with zoning policies and ordinances for the Town. The dock facility will be an accessory to the homestead located at this site. There will be no development of the upland related to this dock facility that will create point sources of pollution or drainage,not even utility trenching. This.project is providing recreational boating and water usage opportunity compatible with the natural resource values and characteristics of the site. REOUHZEMENTS OF SECTION 97-25 OF THE SOUTHOLD WETLANDS LAW 6 The permittee acknowledges that the validity of this permit is subject to the approval of other governmental or municipal authorities. 7 The permittee does, by the acceptance of this permit, assume all responsibility for operations undertaken pursuant to this permit, and shall take all precautions for the prevention of injuries to persons and property resulting from such operations. By such acceptance, the permittee also agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Town and its pfficers. The permittee gives consent to the Town and its officers, employees and agents to enter upon the premises where such operations are being conducted to make such inspections to determine whether said operations are being conducted in conformity with the permit. The permittee will notify the Trustees in writing one week prior to initiation of any and all operations. The permittee will notify the Trustees in writing upon completion of operations such that the site can be inspected for issuance for a certificate of compliance. In response to Sub-section 2a and the General Rules for Standards of Residential and Commercial Docks,the following additional information is offered. Permits for the work are being applied for simultaneously through the US ALOE, NYS DEC and a Coastal Zone Consistency determination by the NYS DOS. The new piles to be installed will be 12-inch diameter Class B wood of sturdy, durable and stable materials, in all.likelihood, Greenhart, Kakaralli or CCA pressure-treated Southern Yellow Pine (SYP) piles with new split caps and braces of the same SYP materials. These members will be a.minimum of 3 x 10 to 4 x 10 timber with double 3/a" bolts per connection, or in some cases, one 1-inch bolt per connection. These sizes are predicated based on sea conditions during rough weather. This pier is a fixed,pile-supported timber structure and therefore will not adversely affect the free circulation of water or reduce the effects of fluctuating water levels in Fishers Island Sound; only piles will span the water column. In addition, the pier does not present any adverse modification of the shoreline. The pier head end elevation is such that in extreme high flood tides in storm surges the structure will be inundated. The structure's SYP timber materials represent the standard of the industry being specifically grown and treated for this type of usage and are capable of withstanding full immersion. With the connections described above, this structure will be able to survive repeated inundations and even direct waves at high tide elevations with a structural life of approximately 20 years. Severe storm performance cannot be guaranteed. The pier support, because of its height, will include driving new permanent 12-inch diameter Class B piles at nominal 10-foot intervals to the maximum extent possible in order to obtain the desired pier alignment and support intervals; 12-inch piles will be used for the tie-offs. Twelve-inch piles are required for this pier because of the sea conditions and difficult pile driving conditions in the boulder laden bottom sediments. The use of CCA pressure-treated piles and timbers can be approved for this project in accordance with Local Law b. Ten-foot bent intervals will vary as necessary to accommodate pile driving conditions around boulders. The structural components cannot be removable, except at times of repair or reconstruction, because of the tough site conditions. The pier will not be decked with CCA pressure-treated Southern Pine. This pier walkway provides a safe pedestrian surface for access to the berthed boat. Rails may be installed on the pier for safety of the users. 8 The pier emanating from near the westend of the property waterfront. The 15-foot side yard clearance specified in this paragraph has been more than honored and lateral clearance of more than a hundred feet to the next dock facility to the west should not be an issue because the proposed pier does not represent a significant encroachment into the logical boating operations area of the neighbors to the east or west. The dock facility does not project into the navigation way for other boaters in the Harbor because of the recessed shoreline and number of rocks in the shoaling nearshore waters. The deck width of 8 feet was previously authorized and appropriate for boating safety because of the exposure to waves from the north, inherent stability, and the agility of some of the users. Upon receipt of the permit for this project, appropriate permit numbers and a Town permit placard will be affixed to the most seaward face of the pier for identification from the water. The only permanent structures located above the pier decking other than the power post and railing which are safety features fixed by function, would be a dock box over the boulders at the shore side landing. NEW YORK COASTAL MANAGEMENT PROGRAM These application documents include a copy of the Federal Consistency Assessment Form utilized for the New York State Coastal Management Program under the jurisdiction of the New York State Department of State. The following policies have been identified as pertinent to this application and the reason for consistency associated with this project is outlined in each respective case. • Policy 2 —Water Dependent Uses— This project is to construct a fully functional water dependent use, a dock facility at this site in support of recreational boating. • Policy 5 —Use of Existing Developed Shorefront — There is no developed shoreline on this site. This project utilizes existing shorefront which is dominated by an accumulation of stone. Wave energy has diminished resources but the shoreline does support growth of some patchy or individual tidal wetlands vegetation. The project will be to build a pier and extend it to a logical shoreward terminus to make it safe and reliably usable in most boating conditions in accordance with the NYS DEC 4 foot depth criteria. • Policy 7—Significant Fish&Wildlife Habitat—Protection of significant fish and wildlife habitat has been considered in the development of this project layout. The pier, to the shoreward point beginning, will maintain 5 feet above the rocky intertidal sediments and should not jeopardize the integrity of any vegetation outcrops, should they colonize this area in the future. Typically there is a slight environmental benefit to a pier project because of the creation of structure in the water column where small fish can benefit from shelter and barnacles, algae and crustaceans will colonize and grow. • Policy 8 —Protection & Preservation of Habitat—Protection and preservation of habitat has also been considered in this project and the dock structure is being kept to,its minimal configuration and of width, length and height and materials consistent with standards of the industry and restrictions set forth in the Wetlands Law, No. 6, 2004 set forth by the Town of Southold and standards of the NYS DEC The pier has been sited over a stony part of the beach to make use of the obstructed, least desirable beach habitat and avoid 9 dune grass upland and the eelgrass to minimize damage to natural resources based on existing conditions documented in the survey. See Natural Coast Policies on page 3 of this narrative. • Policy 11 —Minimize Damage to Natural Resources - The dock construction project has been laid out in such a way so as to minimize damage to Natural Coastal resources as identified in Policy 8 above. The dock facility has been sited in the area where large boulders on the beach have already impacted shoreline vegetation and fouled the area to navigation. US Fish and Wildlife Service Guidelines for eelgrass beds have been substantially complied with as addressed in the Natural Coast Policies on page 3 of this narrative. The pier point of origin is at the beach side limit of dune grass. • Policy 14—No Measurable Increase in Flooding=This project consists of construction of an open wood pile and timber pier which in no way adversely affects water flow and circulation in Fishers Island Sound or flooding potential of the area. Flood levels all around Fishers Island are dictated by water levels in Long Island Sound, and Block Island Sound and the Atlantic Occean. This structure will have no adverse influence or in any way impact on those water or flood levels. • Policy 15 —No Dredging—Dredging, per se, is not required in this project, however, any boulder which adversely affects construction or boating usage will be moved from the pier line and berthing area and relocated to the footprint of the pier consistent with the benthic characteristics of the site. The dock system has been laid out in its current location and configuration to avoid any dredging requirements. The minimum prescribed water depth of 2 feet, as generally recommended by the US ACOE, and 4 feet as recommended by the NYS DEC has been reached. The 4 foot depth is clearly most appropriate, because of the rocky nature of the bottom sediments in order to avoid boat hull or propeller contact damage. This is an exposed site such that the boat must be berthed bow out or bow to the northwest. • Policy 19—Impact on Public Access—Public access will not be jeopardized or impeded as a result of this project. Environmental resources at this site are limited and site habitat features are being preserved. The potential for growth is being protected by the suitable alignment and height standards dictated by the NYS DEC. There is virtually no public use of the waterfront in this area and the construction of the pier and dock are all waterward above the Apparent High-Water Line and are not likely to influence or change this fact. The Public Trust Lands at this site are substantially obstructed by terrain, wild shoreline vegetation and the boulder field which spans the intertidal and shallow subtidal zone. There is almost no public access usage of the public trust lands or waters at this dock site except kayaking and canoeing which are also rare. The upper intertidal zone and shallow subtidal zone is significantly covered by boulders and the shallow sub-tidal waters do not present any opportunity for navigation or enticement for public access in the area. The Sound is three miles wide so the pier occupies far less than the landward 25% of the waterway width in accordance with US ACOE policies. Thus, public access to the State's lands and waters will not be adversely affected by the project; the pier is high, 5 feet above the shore and so if someone wanted to walk this shoreline and pass beneath the pier,they will still be able to. 10 • Policy 20—Public Trust Compatibility with Exisfia&Adioining Properties and Land Uses Public Trust compatibility with existing adjoining properties and land uses have also been considered in this project. Several neighboring or nearby properties have similar docking facilities similar to this one and this docking facility will not interfere with existing or the likely configuration of future facilities on nearby properties. • Policy 21 --Water Dependent Recreation — This project is consistent with water- dependent recreational opportunities policies set forth in this section. • Policy 24 —Scenic Resources Impairment or Loss - This policy is designed to prevent impairment or minimize loss of scenic resources. The fixed wood pile and timber pier will be to the side of the straight-out field of vision for both the neighboring properties and should not represent such an extent of encroachment or structure which would create a loss of scenic resources. This facility will really only be visible from the water and the six adjacent sites, five of which have docks. ® Policy 25—Enhance Overall Scenic Quality-The new dock structure except for resource design requirements will be consistent with typical dock characteristics, the scenic features of the area and prevent loss of scenic resources as described in Policy 24 above. • Policy 44 — Preserve and Protect Tidal Wetlands — The tidal wetland vegetation on the rocky shorefront is a sparse and stressed between the non-turf vegetated buffer and the water's edge at the dock site. The construction of the fixed wood pile and timber pier has taken advantage of the least vegetated strip of shoreline in order to avoid adverse wetland and dune grass impact. The pier height and alignment also substantially avoids the eelgrass fringe which grows out beyond the shallow subtidal waters north of the dock site. The height of the pier should allow continued opportunities for the growth of the tidal vegetation naturally up to, and to an extent, beneath the wood pier, if other conditions are suitable. The pier being orientated north-south will allow sunlight beneath the pier from the east in the morning and the west in the afternoon and will terminate just into the southerly edge of the bed partly shading an area of 2008F survey patches of submerged aquatic vegetation. The height of the deck above the water column and the use of"Thru flow" decking should help to minimize the adverse impact on the eelgrass while meeting NYS DEC deck height and pier encroachment standards. SUMMARY This project proposes rebuilding a private dock for recreational boating access for the property of the Patterson's on Fishers Island, incorporating extensive measures to minimally impact to a productive habitat, while maintaining habitat values and avoiding despoliation of tidal wetlands or submerged aquatic vegetation. A copy of all US Army Corps of Engineers, NYS DEC and NYS DOS applications and supplemental drawings and photographs are attached as substantiation for this project. This project complies with applicable standards of the New York State Coastal Management Act, NYS / DEC Tidal Wetland Regulations and criteria for approval and the Town of Southold Waterfront Revitalization Program and Local Ordinance No. 6, 2004; approval of this project is thus respectfully requested. 11 Respectfully submitted, DOCKO Bill Bayne, EIT 12 NOAA Fisheries Greater Atlantic Regional fisheries Office Essential Fish habitat(EFH) Assessment & Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (FWCA) Consultation Worksheet August 2021 rev. Authorities The Magnuson Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act(MSA)requires federal agencies to consult with NOAA Fisheries on any action or proposed action authorized, funded, or undertaken by such agency that may adversely affect essential fish habitat(EFH)identified under the MSA. This process is guided by the requirements of our EFH regulation at 50 CFR 600.905,which mandates the preparation of EFH assessments and generally outlines each agency's obligations in the consultation process. The Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act(FWCA)requires that all federal agencies consult with NOAA Fisheries when proposed actions might result in modifications to a natural stream or body of water. The FWCA also requires that federal agencies consider the effects that these projects would have on fish and wildlife and must also provide for improvement of these resources. Under the FWCA,we work to protect, conserve and enhance species and habitats for a wide range of aquatic resources such as shellfish, diadromous species,and other commercially and recreationally important species that are not federally managed and do not have designated EFH. It is important to note that these;consultations take place between NOAA Fisheries and federal action agencies. As a result, EFH assessments, including this worksheet, must be provided to us by the federal agency,not by permit applicants or consultants. Use of the Worksheet This worksheet can serve as an EFH assessment for Abbreviated EFU Consultations, and as a means to provide information on potential effects to other NOAA trust resources considered under the FWCA. An abbreviated consultation allows us to determine quickly whether,and to what degree,a federal action may adversely affect EFH.Abbreviated consultation procedures can be used when federal actions do not have the potential to cause substantial adverse effects on EFH and when adverse effects could be alleviated through minor modifications. The intent of the EFH worksheet is to provide a guide for determining the information needed to fiilly assess the effects of a proposed action on EFH.In addition,the worksheet may be used as a tool to assist you in developing a more comprehensive EFH assessment for larger projects that may have more substantial adverse effects to EFH.However, for large,complex projects that have the potential for significant adverse effects, an Expanded EFH Consultation may be warranted and the use of this worksheet alone is not appropriate as your EFH assessment. An adverse effect is any impact that reduces the quality and/or quantity of EFH.Adverse effects may include direct or indirect physical, chemical,or biological alterations of the waters or substrate and loss of, or injury to,benthic organisms,prey species and their habitat,and other ecosystem components. Adverse effects to EFH may result from actions occurring within EFH or outside of EFH and may include site-specific or habitat-wide impacts, including individual, cumulative, or synergistic consequences of actions. i Consultation under the MSA is not required if there is no adverse effect on EFH or if no EFH has been designated in the project area.However,because the definition of"adverse effect"is very broad, most in-water work will result in some level of adverse effect requiring consultation with us, even if the impact is temporary or the overall result of the project is habitat restoration or enhancement. It is important to remember that an adverse effect determination is a trigger to consult with us. It does not mean that a project cannot proceed as proposed, or that project modifications are necessary. An adverse effect determination under the EFH provisions of the MSA simply means that the effects of the proposed action on EFH must be evaluated to determine if there are ways to avoid,minimize, or offset adverse effects. Additional details on EFH consultations,tools, and resources, including frequently asked questions can be found on our website. Instructions This worksheet should be used as your EFH assessment for Abbreviated EFH Consultations or as a guide to develop your EFH assessment. it is not appropriate to use this worksheet as your EFH assessment for large, complex projects, or those requiring an Expanded EFH Consultation. When completed fully and with sufficient information to clearly describe the activities proposed, habitats affected, and project impacts,as well as the measures taken to avoid,minimize or offset any unavoidable adverse effects,this worksheet provides us with required components of an EFH assessment including: 1. A description of the proposed action. 2. An analysis of the potential adverse effects on EFH and the federally managed species. 3. The federal agency's conclusions regarding the effects of the action on EFH. 4. Proposed mitigation, if applicable. When completing this worksheet and submitting information to us, it is important to ensure that sufficient information is provided to clearly describe the proposed project and the activities proposed. At a minimum,this should include the public notice(if applicable) or project application and project plans showing: • - location map of the project site with area of impact. • existing and proposed conditions. • all in-water work and the location of all proposed structures and/or fill. • all waters of the U.S. on the project site with mean low water(MLW), mean high water (MHW),high tide line (HTL), and water depths clearly marked. • Habitat Areas of Particular Concern(HAPCs). • sensitive habitats mapped, including special aquatic sites (submerged aquatic vegetation, saltmarsh,mudflats,riffles and pools, coral.reefs,and sanctuaries and refuges),hard bottom or natural rocky habitat areas, and shellfish beds. • site photographs,if available. Your analysis of effects should focus on impacts that reduce the quality and/or quantity of the habitat or result in conversion to a different habitat type for all life stages of species with designated EFH within the action area. Simply stating that fish will move away or that the project ii will only affect a small percentage of the overall population is not a sufficient analysis of the effects of an action on EFH.Also,since the intent of the EFH consultation is to evaluate the direct, indirect, individual and cumulative effects of a particular federal action on EFH and to identify options to avoid,minimize or offset the adverse effects of that action, is it not appropriate to conclude that an impact is minimal just because the area affected is a small percentage of the total area of EFH designated.The focus of the consultation is to reduce impacts resulting from the activities evaluated in the assessment. Similarly,a large area of distribution or range of the fish species is also not appropriate rationale for concluding the impacts of a particular project are minimal. Use the information on the our EFH consultation website and NOAA's EFH Mapper to complete this worksheet.The mapper is a useful tool for viewing the spatial distribution of designated EFH and HAPCs. Because summer flounder HAPC (defined as: "all native species of macroalgae, seagrasses, and freshwater and tidal macrophytes in any size bed, as well as loose aggregations,within adult and juvenile summer flounder EFH") does not have region-wide mapping, local sources and on-site surveys may be needed to identify submerged aquatic vegetation beds within the project area. The full designations for each species may be viewed as PDF links provided for each species within the Mapper, or via our website links to the New England Fishery Management Councils Omnibus Habitat Amendment 2 (Omnibus EFH Amendment),the Mid-Atlantic Fishery Management Councils FMPs (MAMFC -Fish Habitat),or the Highly Migratory Species website.Additional information on species specific life histories can be found in the EFH source documents accessible through the Habitat and Ecosystem Services Division website. This information can be useful in evaluating the effects of a proposed action.Habitat and Ecosystem Services Division(HESD) staff have also developed a technical memorandum Impacts to Marine Fisheries Habitat from Non-fishing Activities in the Northeastern United States, NOAA Technical Memorandum NMFS-NE-209 to assist in evaluating the effects of non-fishing activities on EFH.If you have questions,please contact the HESD staff member in your area to assist you. Federal agencies or their non-federal designated lead agency should email the completed worksheet and necessary attachments to the HESD New England(ME,NH,MA, CT,RI) or Mid-Atlantic (NY, NJ, PA,DE, MD, VA) Branch Chief and the regional biologist listed on the Contact Regional Office Staff section on our EFH consultation website and listed below. We will provide our EFH conservation recommendations under the MSA,and recommendations under the FWCA, as appropriate,within 30 days of receipt of a complete EFH assessment for an abbreviated consultation.Please ensure that the EFH worksheet is completed in full and includes detail to minimize delays in completing the consultation.If we are unable to assess potential impacts based on the information provided,we may request additional information necessary to assess the effects of the proposed action on our trust resources before we can begin a consultation.If the worksheet is not completely filled out, it may be returned to you for completion.The EFH consultation and our response clock does not begin until we have sufficient information upon which to consult. If this worksheet is not used,you should include all the information required to complete this worksheet in your EFH assessment. The level of detail that you provide should be commensurate with the magnitude of impacts associated with the proposed project.You may need to prepare a more detailed EFH assessment for more substantial or complex projects to fully characterize the effects of the project and the avoidance and minimization of impacts to EFH.The format of the EFH worksheet may not be sufficient to incorporate the extent of detail required for large-scale projects,and a separate EFH assessment may be required. lll Regardless of the format,you should include an analysis as outlined in this worksheet for an expanded EFH assessment, along with any additional necessary information including: • the results of on-site inspections to evaluate habitat and site-specific effects. • the views of recognized experts on habitat or the species that may be affected. • a review of pertinent literature and related information. • an analysis of alternatives that could avoid or minimize adverse effects on EFH. For these larger scale projects, interagency coordination meetings should be scheduled to discuss the contents of the EFH consultation and the site-specific information that may be needed in order to initiate the consultation. Please contact our Greater Atlantic Regional Fisheries Office, Protected Resources Division regarding potential impacts to marine mammals or threatened and endangered species and the appropriate consultation procedures.

Purpose of the proposedproject: Provide access to navigable water for recreational boating. b. Description of current site conditions: The site is a private property across a developed home site in a residential zone. The grounds are fairly wild down to the riparian buffer at the shoreline beyond which is open water as surveyed and documented on the application drawings and survey. Boulders are heavily intermixed with the tidal vegetation and out beyond into the shallow sub-tidal zone. E c. Proposed site changes: d. Type of structures and fill materials to be installed, and quantity of materials to be used (e.g., square feet of covers a cubic yards of fill material, structures below ordinary/mean high water, etc.): The dock facility will be a wood pile and timber structure covering approximately 850 SF including the fixed pier,ramp and float. e. Area of excavation or dredging, volume of material to be removed, location of dredged materialplacement: There is no dredging associated with this project. If boulder relocation is necessary for pile driving associated with the pier,the boulders will be reset between the pile bents beneath the pier,or removed from the site if required. f.

Submit this completed page as part of your Application. g. Work methods and type of equipment to be used: This project will be built using marine construction equipment consisting of a deck barge with mounted crane. Pile driving will utilize the crane to hoist the piles in place and drive them to 10 to 15 feet of embedment then hoist large timbers such as the split clamps and stringers into position. Decking will also be transported to the site on the barge with the heavy timbers but be put into place manually with hand tools. h, Describe the planned sequence of activities: Mobilize to the site, demolition,drive piles,connect split clamps and stringers,fasten decking, drive the tie-off piles,demoblize. i. Pollution control methods and other actions proposed to mitigate environmental impacts: There are no needs for pollution controls except for fuel spills and the construction barge carries a spill kit for use in such emergencies. j. Erosion and silt control methods that will be used to prevent water quality impacts: k. Alternatives considered to avoid regulated areas. If no feasible alternatives exist, explain how the project will minimize impacts: The pile driving is essential to support the pier and work over inhospitable terrain of rocks and boulders and to stay above the tidal wetlands. The length of the pier coming to shore at the cottage is to avoid interference with foot traffic across the beach and to avoid trenching for utilities.

Optionally, you may review the EFH text descriptions linked to each species in the EFH mapper and use them to determine if the described habitat is present at your project site.If the habitat characteristics described in the text descriptions do not exist at your site,you may be able to exclude some species or life stages from additional consideration. For example,the water depths at your site are shallower that those described in the text description for a particular species or life stage. We recommend this for larger projects to help you determine what your impacts are.

HAPCs merit special consideration based their ecological function(current or historic), sensitivity to human- induced degradation, stresses from development, and/or rarity of the habtat.While many HAPC designations have geographic boundaries,there are also habitat specific HAPC designations for certain species, see note below. Use the EFH mapper to identify HAPCs within your project area. Select all that apply.

Details-project impacts and mitigation Briefly describe how the project would impact each of the habitat types.selected above and the amount(i.e., acreage or sf)of each habitat impacted.Include temporary and permanent impact descriptions and direct and indirect impacts.For example, dredging has a direct impact on bottom sediments and associated benthic communities. The turbidity generated can result in a temporary impact to water quality which may have an indirect effect on some species and habitats such as winter flounder eggs, SAV or rocky habitats. The level of detail that you provide should be commensurate with the magnitude of impacts associated with the proposed project.Attach supplemental information if necessary. Upland 80 SF of impact with pile penetration into the ground and pier coverage. Water Column-647 SF of impact with 27 SF of pile penetration into the bottom and 620 SF of pier coverage. This project endeavors to site the dock facility clear of the mapped SAV bed and avoiding the area of extensive boulders with interspersed eelgrass to the east.The piers'northerly alignment reaches deep water relatively close to shore angles off to the northwest to allow for berthing bow into the significant wind/wave direction for berthing security and lowest sea condition exposure risk, staying clear of the most productive habitat and shelter will be preserved. What specific measures will be used to avoid and minimize impacts, including project design,turbidity controls, acoustic controls, and time of year restrictions?If impacts cannot be avoided or minimized, why not? Wood 12 inch Class B piles will be utilized to support the pier.Driving wood piles minimizes acoustic impacts and produces no turbidity.Deck height will be 8 feet above beach and bottom sediments to minimize shading,helped by the north/south orientation.Thru Flow decking will be utilized to help minimize shading and maintains a fairly bright illuminated water column although the pier has been sited so as to avoid eel grass in the shallow-see Exhibit. Is compensatory mitigation proposed? Yes Z No Z If compensatory mitigation is not proposed,why not?If yes, describe plans for compensatory mitigation (e.g. permittee responsible, mitigation bank, in-lieu fee) and how this will offset impacts to EFH and other aquatic resources.Include a proposed compensatory mitigation and monitoring plan as applicable. Compensatory mitigation is not considered necessary because the dock's siting criteria minimize adverse impacts to tidal wetlands vegetation and SAV. 9. Effects of Climate Chance Effects of climate change should be included in the EFH assessment if the effects of climate change may amplify or exacerbate the adverse effects of the proposed action on EFH.Use the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Representative Concentration Pathways (RCP) g 5/high greenhouse gas emission scenario (IPCC 2014),at a minimum,to evaluate the future effects of climate change on the proposed projections.For sea level rise effects, use the intermediate-high and extreme scenario projections as defined in Sweet et al. (2017).For more information on climate change effects to species and habitats relative to NMFS trust resources, see Guidance for Integrating Climate Change Information in Greater Atlantic Region Habitat Conservation Division Consultation Processes. 1. Could species or habitats be adversely affected by the proposed action due to projected changes in the climate?If es,please describe how: No 2.Is the expected lifes an of the action greater than 10 ears?If yes,please describe pro'ect lifes an: The proposed dock structures should have a 20 to 30 year structural lifespan based on long term observed performance of CCA treated timber. 3. Is climate change currently affecting vulnerable species or habitats, and would the effects of a proposed action be amplified by climate char e?If es lease describe bow: Climate change impacts on fish are unknown with relation to the project and this site.The docksiting and berthing has minimized documented SAV eelgrass beds. 4.Do the results of the assessment indicate the effects of the action on habitats and species will be amplified by climate change?If yes, please describe how: Unknown but doubtful. 5. Can adaptive management strategies(AMS)be integrated into the action to avoid or minimize adverse effects of the Proposed action as a result of climate?If yes, please describe how: The piei/profile has been deliberately set high so as to minimize shading and maintain a bright water column. 8 10. Federal Agency Determination Federal Action Agency's EFH determination (select one) ❑ There is no adverse effect on EFH or EFH is not designated at the project site. EFH Consultation is not required. This is a FWCA only request. The adverse effect on EFH is not substantial. This means that the adverse effects are no ❑ more than minimal, temporary, or can be alleviated with minor project modifications or conservation recommendations. This is a request for an abbreviated EFH consultation. The adverse effeet7 on EFH is substantial. This is a request for an expanded EFH consultation. We will provide more detailed information, including an alternatives analysis and NEPA documents, if applicable. 7An adverse effect is any impact that reduces the quality and/or quantity of EFH.Adverse effects may include direct or indirect physical,chemical,or biological alterations of the waters or substrate and loss of,or injury to,benthic organisms,prey species and their habitat,and other ecosystem components.Adverse effects to EFH may result from actions occurring within EFH or outside of EFH and may include site-specific or habitat-wide impacts,including individual,cumulative,or synergistic consequences of actions. 11. Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act Under the FWCA, federal agencies are required to consult with us if actions that the authorize,fund, or undertake will result in modifications to a natural stream or body of water. Federal agencies are required to consider the effects these modifications may have on fish and wildlife resources, as well as provide for the improvement of those resources. Under this authority,we consider the effects of actions on NOAA-trust resources, such as anadromous fish, shellfish, crustaceans, or their habitats,that are not managed under a federal fisheries management plan. Some examples of other NOAA-trust resources are listed below. Some of these species,including diadromous fishes, serve as prey for a number of federally-managed species and are therefore considered a component of EFH pursuant to the MSA.We will be considering the effects of your project on these species and their habitats as part of the EFH/FWCA consultation process and may make recommendations to avoid,minimize or offset and adverse effects concurrently with our EFH conservation recommendations. Please contact our Greater Atlantic Regional Fisheries Office, Protected Resources Division regarding potential impacts to marine mammals or species listed under the Endangered Species Act and the appropriate consultation procedures. 9 Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act Resources Describe habitat impact type(i.e.,physical, chemical, or biological disruption of Species known to spawning and/or egg development habitat,juvenile nursery and/or adult feeding occur at site(list or migration habitat).Please note,impacts to federally listed species of fish,sea others that may or and marine mammals must be coordinated with the GARFO Protected apply) Resources Division. f alewife American eel American shad Atlantic menhaden blue crab blue mussel blueback herring Eastern oyster horseshoe crab quahog soft-shell clams striped bass other species: other species: other species: 10 12.
