Mr. Donald Dzenkowski
Bay Constable
Town of Southold
Southold, New York 11971
Dear Don:
In 1986 the number of Least Tern Colonies on Long Island decreased to 50*.
This protected species of .water bird is rapidly approaching the endangered
catagory.
Recently, at the request of the Town of Southold, Board of Trustees, we met
with Dr. Charles McCarthy, Associate Professor .of the Suffolk County Community
College Marine Technology Center to discuss the .benefits associated with the
re-opening of the second inlet at Cedar Beach (see attached survey) to isolate
the Least Tern Colony.
This site, established by the Tern, and also used by the Piping Plover
and Osprey is an ideally sparsely vegetated sand beach, however, due to ORV
use during nesting periods and the County Park immediately East of the nesting
area this site becomes increasingly susceptible to abandonment.
Isolation of the colony, through the re-opening of the inlet minimizes -
the disturbance to the colony and provides numerous associated benefits
as well.
Tidal flushing within the habitats is at a minimum, especially around
the bulkheaded channels. Increased flushing action, provided by the second inlet,
will enhance marine productivity within the creek and provide the nutrients
needed for the various species used in the Marine Aquaculture Programs. Enrolled
students will more fully appreciate the potential value of the intertidal marsh.
The New York State D.E.C. , Suffolk County Health Dept. , and S.U.N.Y. at
Stony Brook are actively involved in the monitoring of the "Brown Algae" bloom
within the Peconic System. Steve Megar of the group for the South Fork has
-2-
actively attempted to coordinate efforts between the agencies involved to
consolidate the data obtained to date. Access to the Peconics; as well as docking
space could be provided to those agencies in conjunction with a second inlet.
The area is a designated Significant' Habitat by' the New York State Dept. of
State. (See Attached) . While the precise location and financing of this inlet
is yet to be determined we are sure you will also .realize the benefits of our
proposal.
The detriments include the potential pressure to dredge inside the Cedar
Beach marsh as well as the costs associated with the maintenance of two inlets.
In an effort to ensure that the Least Tern Colony remains viable and to serve
the overall population we look forward to your input and comments during this
preliminary "Brain storming" effort.
Very ruly yours,
enr P. Smith, President
Board of Town Trustees

Mr William Pell
Southold Town, Supervisor
Town Hall _
Southold,NY,11971
Dear Mr Pell:
Enclosed is a picture. of the Cedar Beach inlet that was
taken in June. 1981, approximately six weeks after the inlet
was dredged by the County.
The County .did.. a great Job with the dredging and upon
completion the inlet was wide open from shore to shore.
As you can see. from the picture, it has only taken six
weeks for the troublesome shoal to form from the west as it
has always done and already block one-third of the opening.
As of this. date, the shoal has progressed to the point .of
blocking half the inlet and is already making it hazardous
to navigate the inlet
This points out the unique problem we have with this
inlet and why we had submitted a petition to you last November
to request the County to place. a jetty to stabilize the inlet,
which it appears..;�hey will do with no cost to Southold Toi-n .
Unfortunately, the study that was requested by Southold
Town has. not .been completed - as- yet. an.d we are hoping that it
will be in the near .future .
We understand that Professor Smith at -the Cedar Beach_
Extension- is to perform the study and we are presently
contacting him to discuss its ' progress . We are confident
the study. will show that a jetty will .stabilize the inlet, as
we- have witnessed- the shoal- formation from the west for years . - -
In addition, we are also concerned that if some action
As not taken in the near future to stabilize the inlet it
will be unnavigable again Next year as it has been the past few.
We are also concerned .that the County may find the cost of .
annual dredging prohibitive and that the inlet may even close,
causing the ruination of a beautiful harbor and wetland complex
with environmental and. financial consequences causing ,the
lowering of `land values in the area. -
_We..know that you are approaching thi.s. subject with an .
open mind and would not make -a decision one way or the other
without first. being apprised of all the facts, which we are
hoping- you will receive without .too much delay. We also hope
we can count on. your continued support to resolve this problem
once and for all. Thank you.
