Werner 1: enmmut NYSDECEnvironmental Permits .0 CT 2 4 2007Building 40, SIJNY Stony Brook,NY 11790-2356soutioid Toga.Board'ofR No. 1-4738-03742/00001 Great Gull Island; Town of Southold Dear Ms Werner: On behalf of the American Museum of Natural History, we are requesting two . amendments to Permit No. 1=4738-03742/00001 for.the:reconstruction of a Woodpile and timber at Great Gull Island in the Town.of Southold, New York. The two issues. that need.to be addressed.in this amendment are:. 1. A modification to the seasonal restriction for-construction. 2. The hinged ramp landing point.spanning the gap between the woodpile aid timber pier and land.- The justification for this work is'as follows: ➢ The Roseate Tern populations is being monitored by the Museum of Natural History which has taken on the project of helping the Roseate 'Terns to re-establish their population base in this area: It is understood that Great Gull Island represents a rare breeding opportunity for this Tern and that the site must be preserved and activities must be limited so as not to interfere with that process. However, Ms Helen Hays of the AMNH has agreed that pier reconstruction in late April, May and June micht adversely affect the tern:'s breeding and nest characteristics. Construction in the first two.weeks of .. April, or anytime in July or.August;,however, would not adversely affect the terns acid therefore would be acceptable times for construction as far as the AMNH is concerned. The US Fish 8& Wildlife -Service has indicated through phone conversations that they concur with this determination as well. It is imperative that this project be built as quickly as possible to restore safe and efficient access to and' from the island.. The location of Great Gull Island.in proximity to th6.race between Long Island Sound and Long Island Sound creates frequently rough and.sometimes'treacherous.sea conditions. These sea conditions are seasonally worse in the late fall,winter and spring.than.they are in the'summer.. Therefore,in in order for the AMNH to get this pier re-built; the work season will probably have to be in July and August. Ms Claire K. Werner NYS DEC Permit No. 1-473 8-03 742/00001 October 11,2007 > With regard to the ramp landing, our detailed topographic and hydrographic survey of the site revealed some structural conditions associated with the slab, the original intended point of the hinged ramp landing,that make it an undesirable landing point. Instead, we feel that a steel frame can be fabricated and mounted to the west face of the concrete building which lines up with the re-built wood pier and that this location would be the optimum landing point for the hinged ramp. This alteration will require only a`slight landward extension of the pier between the apparent low and apparent high water lines at this dock site. It will only involve a realignment of the hinged ramp and possibly making the ramp longer. We have shown one additional bent of wood piles to be driven just upland from the mean low water line and then the ramp to be installed more or less straight back to the building's west edge. The building mounted ramp frames will have hoisting points so that in the winter, when the site in abandoned, the landside end of the ramp can be hoisted clear of much of the splash zone and wave break zone on the shore and thus hopefully,keep it safely stowed out of harnr's way. I trust that you will find these amendment requests adequate and acceptable in this form. We have attached revised application drawings to show these conditions and.respectfully.request. your approval. I am sending the same basic information by copy of this.letter, to'.thefiown of Southold, the New York State Department of State and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers as well as Mr. Steven Sinkevich of the U. S. Fish & Wildlife Service for everyone's simultaneous review and action. Please let the know if the need for any further discussion arises. Yours truly, DOCKO,INC. eit4BNeilson�.,P.E.

Box 1179 oafd o Board of Trustees Southold,NY 11971 Re: Gull Island, Pier Reconstruction Permit- SCTM#1000-130 Dear Ms Standish: Following up on our approval of this project a year ago, it is respectfully requested that the American Museum of Natural History be granted an amendment to the previously issued permit to allow a very slight alteration in the alignment of the pier. The landside end of the structure will rotate approximately 5% counterclockwise to allow the hinged ramp landing to terminate along the northeast corner of the concrete bunker rather than the northwest corner of the bunker which was previously the landing point. The reason for this change is the deteriorated state of the armored shorefront along the northwesterly corner. We feel that the damage to existing concrete, the irregularity of the stones and the apparent loss of material due to wave impact and erosion, is worse on the northwest corner than it is on the northeast corner. In addition,we would like to make sure that the Board of Trustees acknowledges that this pier can be built either of wood or steel. It appears that steel might actually be the less expensive and more enduring option because of the toughness of material and the ability to drive steel piles through obstructed soil and bottom sediments such as these. I trust that you will find these modifications to minor in nature; they do not change the width,height, encroachment or configuration of the pier and hinged ramp system. I look forward to making the necessary presentation at the next regularly scheduled Board of Trustees meeting. Your favorable consideration is greatly appreciated. Enclosed is our check in the amount of$50 for the amendment fee. Yours truly, DO KO, INC. Kea Keith B. Neilson, P.E. KBN Jm CC: AMNH: Hays,Warsavage File: 07-04-1925 GREAT GULL ISLAND Docko, Inc.

Box 1179 OCT i Southold NY 11971 Re: Great Gull Island Permit Amendment Dear Mr. King: We are pleased to transmit herewith a copy of the partial topographic and hydrographic survey for Great Gull Island, property of the American Museum of Natural History in Block Island and Long Island Sound. Completion of this survey revealed a structural deficiency in the slab where the hinged ramp landing was proposed. We feel that it would be better now to have the ramp landing immediately adjacent to the west face of the concrete bunker on the tap of bank above the _pier to be re-built. Accordingly, we have changed the application drawings. This modification requires an elongation of the pier approximately 10 feet landward in order to make a 50-foot ramp fit. I trust that you will find the requested amendment acceptable. Please let me know if I need to schedule an appearance at the next Trustee's meeting for re-opening the public hearing.

Located:North Shore of Great Gull Island. SCTM#1000-130. The proposed action has been reviewed to 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 below Policy Standards and therefore is CONSISTENT with the LWRP;_provided that the proposed action meets sub-policies 6.3 and 9.4 outlined below. 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 1. Comply with Trustee regulations and recommendations as set forth in Trustee permit conditions. The applicant must demonstrate that the following dock standards pursuant to 4 275-11. Construction and operation standards have been met. (d) Review and approval of dock applications. Before issuing a permit for a dock structure, the Trustees shall consider whether the dock will have any of the following harmful effects: [1] Whether the dock will impair navigation or be located in areas of high vessel traffic or vessel congestion; [2] Whether the dock will unduly interfere with the public use of waterways for swimming, boating, fishing, shellfishing, waterskiing and other water-dependant activities; [3] Whether the dock will unduly interfere with transit by the public along the public beaches or foreshore; [4] Whether the dock will significantly impair the use or value of waterfront property adjacent to or near the dock; [5] Whether the dock will cause degradation of surface water quality and natural resources; [6] Whether the dock will cause habitat fragmentation and loss of significant coastal fish and wildlife habitats; [7] Whether the dock will result in the destruction of or prevent the growth of vegetated wetlands, seagrasses including eelgrass (Zostera marina) and widgeon grass (Ruppia maritima) or shellfish; [8] Whether the dock will unduly restrict tidal flow or water circulation; [9] Whether the dock will be safe when constructed; [10] Whether the dock will adversely affect views, viewsheds and vistas important to the community; [11] Whether the cumulative impacts of a residential and commercial dock will change the waterway or the environment and whether alternate design, construction, and location of the dock will minimize cumulative impacts; and [12] Whether adequate facilities are available to boat owners and/or operators for fueling, discharge of waste and rubbish, electrical service and water service. It is recommended that the Board evaluate whether the proposed dock will "extend beyond the minimum necessary for access to navigable waters" to meet sub-policy 9.4 below. 9.4 Assure public access to public trust lands and navigable waters. E. Provide access to, and reasonable recreational use of, navigable waters and public trust lands under water. 1. Provide for free and unobstructed public use of all navigable waters below the line of mean high water for navigation, recreation, and other public trust purposes, including the incidental rights of public anchoring. 4. Structures extending beyond the minimum necessary for access to navigable waters impair public trust interests and open space values associated with the water's surface. Allow such structures only in the following circumstances: a. when necessary for practical and convenient operation of water- dependent industry or commerce, and provided that obstruction of commercial navigation does not result. b. for commercial recreational boating facilities provided that: (i) the loss of navigable waters and use of underwater lands is offset by sufficient public benefit, and (ii) obstruction of commercial navigation does not result. C. when the principal purpose of the structure is necessary: (i) to provide public access for recreational uses (ii) for improvements for navigation (iii) for protection from coastal hazards, or (iv) for essential public transportation and transmission facilities. Pursuant to Chapter 268, the Board of Trustees shall consider this recommendation in preparing its written determination regarding the consistency of the proposed action.

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. THIS AREA FOR LEAD AGENCY USE ONLY DETERMINATION OF SIGNIFICANCE -- Type 1 and Unlisted Actions Identify the Portions of EAF'completed for this project: ❑✓ Part 1 Part 2 [:]Part 3 Upon review of the information recorded on this EAF(Parts 1 and 2 and 3 if appropriate), and any other supporting.information, and considering both the magnitude and importance of each impact, it is reasonably determined by the lead agency that: A. 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. MB. 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.* C. The project may result in one or more large and important impacts that may have a significant impact on the environment,therefore a positive declaration will be prepared. *A Conditioned Negative Declaration is only valid for Unlisted Actions AMERICAN MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY-PIER RECONSTRUCTION Name of Action Name of Lead Agency Print or Type Name of Responsible Officer in Lead Agency Title of Responsible Officer Signature of Responsible Officer in Lead Agency Signature of Preparer (If different from responsible officer) website Date Page 1 of 21 PART 1- PROJECT INFORMATION Prepared by Project Sponsor NOTICE: This document is designed to,assist in determining whether the action proposed may have a significant effect on the environment.

Provide any additional information you believe will be needed to complete Parts 2 and 3.

The pier must be rebuilt in order to re-establish an interface between transport and provisioning vessels and the shoreline. The long-standing pier at this site was built by the U. S. Army in 1947 and consisted of large creosote, pressure-treated pine piles driven through the rocky and gravely bottom sediments. These piles were clamped together with split caps of large pressure-treated timbers to which stringers and subsequently decking, was attached. This.pier was originally built as a food and trash disposal chute from the fort cooking facilities and had been maintained on an "as needed" basis, since the American Museum of Natural History took possession of the island, primarily replacing decking and timber framing; now the structure must be completely rebuilt. Previous maintenance efforts preceded the enactment of Local Law No. 6 by the Town of Southold and did not impact more than 50%-of the pier structure. PERMITTING. This pier reconstruction process will be virtually complete replacement and thus will require authorizations from the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers with a consistency determination for conformance to the Coastal Zone Management Program of the State of New York as administered by the Department of State, a Tidal Wetlands by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation and a Wetlands Permit from the Town of Southold. This narrative statement provides information to supplement the application forms for-each of these agencies. SITE CONDITIONS The pier is built along the rocky shorefront on the north edge of Great Gull Island at about the mid-point of the island.. It. projects north into Long. Island Sound a distance of approximately 75 feet waterward of the mean low water line. Boulders pre-dominate the surface characteristics of the shoreline and the shallow sub-tidal zone. The water is frequently rough in this area and creates such an agitated state that sandy bottom sediments have been eroded and scoured out of the foreshore. Virtually all of the shoreline boulders throughout the upper reaches of the foreshore and the inter-tidal and shallow sub-tidal zones, are constantly "sand-blasted" and,as a result,are-basically devoid of vegetation. There was no observed submerged aquatic vegetation in the vicinity of the pier nor were any tidal wetlands grasses or dune grasses observed on the upper reaches of the shore. Photographs of the site are attached for reference in this regard. It is surmised from the notable lack of habitat and vegetation on the shore or throughout the inter-tidal or shallow sub-tidal zone, that there will be no adverse environmental impact on aquatic resources as a result of this pier construction project. 1 i CONSTRUCTION METHODOLOGY This project will have to. be. built from the_ water using barge_ mounted. crane and. mechanical equipment including compressors for the pile driving equipment as well as some of the pneumatic tools. The water gets deep fairly rapidly with the sub-surface sediments profile being approximately one foot vertically for ten feet horizontally. Large boulders exist just east of the berthing area and there is a dispersed line of stone remnants from a previously existing, demolished, solid wharf immediately west of the pier site dictating that the barge approach will have to be from a straight northerly direction into the work area leaving very little maneuvering latitude by the construction barge and service vessels. The first part of the project will be the partial demolition or removal of the existing pier components, primarily the pile remnants. They should be cut off at the water surface or pulled, depending on the need for barge access close to shore and interference they may pose in the new pier components. Most of these piles according to records of the AMNH indicate that these piles are 50 to 60 years old and it is very likely that they may break in the extraction process. New piles will be driven at 10 foot bent intervals and connected with split caps (clamps) of hefty, pressure treated Southern pine timbers on the order of 6 x 12's, not for loading issues affecting the piers' usage, but because of climatological factors. Connections will utilize 1-inch galvanized,_heavy duty timber bolts._It is.anticipated that bracing.piles.should.be used.rather than diagonal cross braces between adjacent piles on each bent although both have been shown on the detail. These brace piles should be notched into the vertical support piles to provide maximum support with minimum dependence on the bolts. Once the bents are in place, deck support stringers will be mounted to the piles at 16-inch intervals across the tops of the split caps. It is anticipated that the deck width will be 6 feet clear with stringers installed across the width of the split caps.as.required.by the decking. Decking.is anticipated.to be industrial grade.steel or heavy duty fiberglass grating mounted crosswise to the stringers. This open grating will allow most of the uplift forces from storm driven waves at high tide to be directed through the structure rather than creating impact forces on the structure. The geometry of the rebuilt pier should extend 10 feet further north beyond the end of the existing pier to enable_boats to maneuver to the_pier without potential damage.from striking the_ boulder located approximately 50 feet east of the end of the existing pier as shown in the application drawings. In addition, a low level platform should be built for off-loading and transfer of supplies and personnel safely at low tides. The shore side end of the pier will be just landward the apparent low water line. The exact location will be dependant on driving conditions through the.boulders.at the landward end of the pier. It is envisioned that the most suitable transition to the shore will be accomplished by installing a 40-foot aluminum ramp. This ramp would be hinged and mounted to the end of the pier and will have a pair of piles and hoisting beams near the landward end to allow the shore landing end to be hoisted and secured up for storm conditions to keep it out of breaking waves on the shore to the extent possible. The elevation of the.pier will be.set at 9 feet above.mean low water. This.will allow the. structure to be clear of much of the adverse wave energy conditions with flood tidal elevation of 5 feet and waves up to 4 feet. 2 Three pile dolphins will be driven in line with the face of the end of the pier and at the location shown on the application drawings so as to create secure tie-off points for bow and stern lines and yet also provide a bracing point for the boat to maneuver against for arrivals and departures. The pier and tie-off dolphin configurations favor berthing with the bow to the west which represents the desired berthing position for the vast majority for wind and sea conditions. It is recommended that the_piles for this project be.either 12.to 14 inch Greenheart piles or 14 to 16 inch pressure treated Southern pines because of the significant and virtually constant rough sea conditions and the loads that the transport vessel thus exerts on the structure; this must be a heavy duty structure.

Box 1179 Southold,New York 11971 Dear Mr. King, Glen Just mentioned to me that you were the person who could decide whether or not we could get a permit to rebuild the dock on Great Gull Island. The island belongs to the American Museum of Natural History and we have worked their since 1969 using a dock originally built by the government when the island was the site of Fort Michie. Last fall the planking of the dock lifted off. Some of the pilings need to be replaced. If there were a time that you could look at the dock I would be happy to arrange a boat to bring you over and take you back once you had seen the dock so that you could consider the possibility of a issuing a permit so that we could repair the dock. In order to work on the island we really need a dock. I will look forward to hearing from you. I hope to be on the island by May 4 -possibly April 25.

The site is generally moderately sloped, sandy gravel earthen materials, vegetated with grass, brush, ground cover and trees. The frontage of,the property is approximately 2,500 feet along Long Island Sound. There are no abutters. The waterfront consists of a boulder covered beach with no observed tidal wetlands vegetation. The pier which serves as the only landing point for service and transport vessels at Great Gull Island has been demolished by two strong coastal storms (nor'easters) in October of 2006 and April of 2007. The pier must be rebuilt in order to re-establish an interface between transport and provisioning vessels and the shoreline. The long-standing pier at this site was built by the U. S. Army in 1947 and consisted of large creosote, pressure-treated pine piles driven through the rocky and gravely bottom sediments. These piles were clamped together with split caps of large pressure-treated timbers to which stringers and subsequently decking, was attached. This pier was originally built as a food and trash disposal chute from the fort cooking facilities and had been maintained on an "as needed" basis, since the American Museum of Natural History took possession of the island, primarily replacing decking and timber framing; now the structure must be completely rebuilt. Previous maintenance efforts preceded the enactment of Local Law No. 6 by the Town of Southold and did not impact more than 50%of the pier structure. This supplemental narrative has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of Town of Southold, Ordinance No. 6, 2004, and the Waterfront Revitalization Program related to docks and shorefront improvements. In addition, applicable 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 WORK- As mentioned in the introductory paragraph,this project is to reconstruct a'fixed wood pile and timber pier from the shore out into Long Island Sound in accordance with existing guidelines set forth in the Town of Southold ordinance No. 6, 2004. It is envisioned that this structure will be built utilizing the following general sequence and methodology. This project will have to be built from the water using barge mounted crane and mechanical equipment including compressors for the pile driving equipment as well as some of the pneumatic tools. The water gets deep fairly rapidly with the sub-surface sediments profile being approximately one foot vertically for ten feet horizontally. Large boulders exist just east of the berthing area and there is a dispersed line of stone remnants from a previously existing, demolished, solid wharf immediately west of the pier site dictating that the barge approach will have to be from a straight northerly direction into the work area leaving very little maneuvering latitude by the construction barge and service vessels. 1 r- The first part of i-ie project will be the partial demolition :,, removal of the existing pier components, primarily the pile remnants. They should be cut off at the water surface or pulled, depending on the need for barge access close to shore and conflicts they may create for the installation of the new pier components. According to records of the AMNH indicate that these piles are 50 to 60 years old and it is very likely that they may break in the extraction process. New piles will be driven at 10 foot bent intervals with a bearing capacity of 20 (+/-)tons, proceeding from the shore out, and connected with split caps (clamps) of hefty, pressure treated Southern pine timbers on the order of 6 x 12's, not for loading issues affecting the piers' usage, so much as climatological factors. Connections will utilize minimum I-inch galvanized;heavy duty timber bolts. It is anticipated that bracing piles should be used rather than diagonal cross braces between adjacent piles on each bent although both have been shown on the detail. These brace piles should be notched into the vertical support piles to provide maximum support with minimum dependence on the bolts. Once the bents are in place, deck support stringers will be mounted to the piles at 16-inch intervals across the tops of the split caps. It is anticipated that the deck width will be 6 feet clear with stringers installed across the width of the split caps as required by the decking. Decking is anticipated to be industrial grade steel or heavy duty fiberglass grating mounted crosswise to the stringers. This open grating will allow most of the uplift forces from storm driven waves at high tide to be directed through the structure rather than creating impact forces on the structure. The geometry of the rebuilt pier should extend 10 feet further north beyond the end of the existing pier to enable boats to maneuver to the pier without potential damage from striking the boulder located approximately 50 feet east of the end of the existing pier as shown in the application drawings. In addition, a low level platform should be built for off-loading and transfer of supplies and personnel safely at low tides. A davit will be installed on the back side platform support pile for heavy or awkward load transfers. The shore side end of the pier will be just landward the apparent low water line. The exact location will be dependant on driving conditions through the boulders at the landward end of the pier. It is envisioned that the most suitable transition to the shore will be accomplished by installing a 40-foot aluminum ramp. This ramp would be hinged and mounted to the end of the pier and will have a pair of piles and hoisting beams near the landward end to allow the shore landing end to be hoisted and secured up for storm conditions to keep it out of breaking waves on the shore to the extent possible. Safety rails 48 inches above the deck will be installed along all edges of the pier not usable for berthing. The elevation of the pier will be set at 9 feet above mean low water. This will allow the structure to be clear of much of the adverse wave energy conditions with flood tidal elevation of 5 feet and waves up to 4 feet. There will be no utilities on the pier. PERMITTING This pier reconstruction process will be virtually complete replacement and thus will require authorizations from the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers with a consistency determination for conformance to the Coastal Zone Management Program of the State of New York as administered by the Department of State,a Tidal Wetlands by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation and a Wetlands Permit from the Town of Southold. This narrative statement provides information to supplement the application forms for each of these agencies. 2 SITE CONDITIONS The pier is built along the rocky,shorefront on the north edge of Great Gull Island at about the mid-point of the island. It projects north into Long Island Sound a distance of approximately 75 feet waterward of the mean low water line. Boulders pre-dominate the surface characteristics of the shoreline and the shallow sub-tidal zone. The water is frequently rough in this area and creates such an agitated state that sandy bottom sediments have been eroded and scoured out of the foreshore. Virtually all of the shoreline boulders throughout the upper reaches of the foreshore and the inter-tidal and shallow sub-tidal zones, are constantly "sand-blasted" and,as a result,are basically devoid of vegetation. There was no observed submerged aquatic vegetation in the vicinity of the pier nor were any tidal wetlands grasses or dune grasses observed on the upper reaches. of the shore. Photographs of the site are attached for reference in this regard. It is surmised from the notable lack of habitat and vegetation on the shore or throughout the inter-tidal or shallow sub-tidal zone, that there will be no adverse environmental impact on aquatic resources as a result of this pier construction project. Three pile dolphins will be driven in line with the face of the end of the pier and at the location shown on the application drawings so as to create secure tie-off points for bow and stem lines and yet also provide a bracing point for the boat to maneuver against for arrivals and departures. The pier and tie-off dolphin configurations favor berthing with the bow to the west which represents the desired berthing position for the vast majority for wind and sea conditions. It is recommended that the piles for this project be either 12 to 14 inch Greenheart piles or 14 to 16 inch pressure treated Southern pines because of the significant and virtually constant rough sea conditions and the loads that the transport vessel thus exerts on the structure;this must be a heavy duty structure. LOCAL WATERFRONT REVITALIZATION POLICIES The Town of Southold, LWRP policies that are applicable to the Great Gull Island pier and dock proposal are a local refinement of the Long Island Sound Regional Coastal Management Program policies that apply throughout Long Island Sound. The site is on the north shore of Great Gull Island and is characterized by undeveloped coast. 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, ➢ Policy 3 is to enhance and protect scenic resources and visual quality. The proposed dock facility is consistent with waterfront development on Fishers Island and in coastal areas. The pier is made of timbers and utilizes the materials allowable under Local Law #6 and consistent with other adjacent dock facilities and characteristics for the visual and scenic considerations in the cove. The encroachment has been minimized to the maximum possible extent to be consistent with DEC policies and the structure is at an elevation consistent with the safe and efficient use of the waters and consistent with the tidal range of this site. 3 NATURAL COAST Po' j.4 .IES The Natural Coastal Policies are 4 through 8 and require consideration as follows: ➢ 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 essential transportation access / docking facility has been laid out and configured so as to be consistent with the DEC permit requirements for such structures. As such, it provides 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 in particular. There will be no adverse impacts on air quality as a result of this structure. 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 restores an essential boat docking facility for access,transportation and provisioning of personnel on the island and so is consistent with this policy. No public access or recreational use is required or provided. 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, 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 citing of water-dependent uses in appropriate areas is applicable and the proposed project has been laid out to make the most beneficial use of the land and locating the dock facility in the most appropriate point of the land where access down the bank will not require excessive structural facilities but instead can be accommodated with a removable ramp rather than fixed stairs or bridging. This project has been laid out with specific reference to and review of the Waterfront Revitalization Program policies as well as local Law No. 6 and is considered to be consistent. In summary, the dock is typical of essential transportation boat docking facilities along coastal New England. The structure has been minimized in size,height, and structure so as to be consistent with facilities of a similar nature and the minimum necessary components to accommodate safe and efficient boating operations from this site and yet survive stormy climatic conditions which frequently arise and from which there is no protection. 4 „! In summary, 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 problems, it does not adversely 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 so as not to so as not to adversely affect any of the environmental or habitat conditions. The height of the structure has been specifically addressed so as to remain above most tidal conditions and storm driven waves and uses a lower platform for ease of access at lower tides and calmer conditions. The dock facility has also been located reaching out to the deepest water so that bottom contact will not be an issue and keep the vessel-out of breaking waves induced by the shoaling sediments and to minimize adverse environmental impacts. More than 95% of the shoreline 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 as a result of this project. Reference is made to the NYS DEC study from 2000 indicating the suitability of pressure-treated Southern Yellow Pine piles and / or super- structure components for this type of purpose. In accordance with Local Law 96, decking for both the float and the pier and the ramp treads will be of synthetic materials. No natural protective features or processes will be adversely impacted as a result of the proposed docking facility. This project is consistent with zoning policies and ordinances for the Town. The dock facility will be an accessory to the research facilities which are based seasonally 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. This project is considered to be provide boat access facilities compatible with the natural resource values and characteristics of the site. REQUIREMENTS OF SECTION 97-25 OF THE WETLANDS LAW 6, 2004 The permittee acknowledges that the validity of this permit is subject to the approval of other governmental or municipal authorities. 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 save harmless the Town and its officers. 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. 5 i 1. Permits for the work are being applied for through the Town, US ACOE, NYS DEC and a coastal zone consistency determination by the NYS DOS. 2. The new piles to be installed will be of sturdy, durable and stable materials; in all likelihood, Greenhart 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's and as large as, 6 x 12's with at least one 1-inch bolt per connection, and in most cases,two 1-inch bolts per connection. This pier is a fixed,pile-supported timber structure with a float and therefore will not adversely affect the free circulation of water or reduce the effects of fluctuating water levels in Darbie's Cove. In addition, the pier does not present any adverse modification of the shoreline. The pier's elevation is such that only in extreme high flood tides will the structure be inundated. The structure's SYP timber materials are specifically grown for this purpose and are capable of withstanding full immersion and represent the standard of the industry. With the connections described above, this structure will be able to survive repeated inundations and exposure to 3-foot breaking waves at high tide elevations. 3. The pier support and battered bracing will include driving new piles at 10-foot intervals to the maximum extent possible in order to obtain the desired pier alignment and support intervals. Boulder location will have an impact on pile locations. The use of CCA pressure-treated piles and timbers can be approved for this project in accordance with Local Law 6. 4. The pier will not be decked with CCA pressure-treated Southern Pine. This pier/ walkway will probably be industrial-style grating to provide a safe.pedestrian surface for access between the shore and berthed boat. Rails will be installed on the pier for safety. 5. The pier is almost centered on the property. The 15-foot clearance specified in this paragraph should not be an issue because the there is only one land owner .involved and there are no adjoiners. 6. 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. 7. There, are permanent structures located above the pier decking other than the safety rail and the davit which are fixed by function. 8. It is currently possible to provide a five-foot passage way on the upland to get around this pier and that access ability will be retained between the mean low and mean high water lines. There is room to walk under the pier at low tide,however, foot traffic in this area is virtually non-existent. 6 NEW YORK STATE 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 recreational boating dock facility at this site in support of recreational boating. Policy 5 —Use of Existing Developed Shorefront—There is no longer any developed shoreline on this site. This project utilizes existing shorefront which has been altered by previous dock and wharf structures but the rough sea conditions have diminished resources such as growth of tidal wetlands vegetation. The project will be to re-build a pier and extend it to a logical shoreward terminus to make it safe and reliably usable in most weather conditions. Policy 7 — Significant Fish & Wildlife Habitat — Protection of significant fish and wildlife habitat has been considered in the development of this project layout. The dock to the shoreward point of beginning will be over a boulder shoreline devoid of vegetation and with little habitat value because of the constant battering by waves. The entire island is a refuge, primarily for terns. 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 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. 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 resources as identified in.Policy 7 above. 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 waterflow and circulation in Long Island Sound or flooding potential of the area. Flood levels all around the island are dictated by water levels in Long Island Sound and Block Island Sound and this structure will have no adverse influence on those levels. Policy 15 —No Dredging Dredging is not required in this project. The dock system has been laid out in its current location and configuration to avoid any dredging requirements. The depth of 8 feet has been reached not so much for avoiding adverse impacts of bottom disturbance but to keep clear of the boulder at the east end of the docking facility for the safety and welfare of the crew and station personnel. The waters are so rough that boats must be berthed bow out leaving the propellers and rudders in five feet or deeper water. Most berthing will be of short duration and will take place off the end of the pier. 7 • Policy 19 — Impact on I uldlic Access — Public access will not be jeopardized or impeded as a result of this project. As a matter of fact, there is almost no public access usage of the public trust lands or waters at this site. The intertidal zone is significantly covered by boulders and the shallow sub-tidal waters do not present any opportunity or enticement for public access in the area Thus, public access to the State's lands and waters will not be adversely affected by the project. Policy 20 — Public Trust Compatibility with Existing Adjoining Properties and Land Uses- Public Trust compatibility and land uses have also been considered in this project and,although these are no neighbors, the docking facility has been minimized. This docking facility will not interfere with existing or the likely configuration of future facilities, adjacent islands,or public access to public trust lands or waters of the State or the logical allocation of littoral development rights. Policy 21 — Water Dependent Recreation — This project is consistent with water-dependent policies set forth in this section. Policy 24 —Scenic Resources, Impairment or Loss - This policy is designed for functionality and to the extent possible, to prevent impairment or loss of scenic resources. The construction of the fixed wood pile and timber pier will not represent a new encroachment or structure which would create a loss of scenic resources; it is replacing a pre-existing and long-standing docking facility. The height, length and mass of the structure are purely defensive to maintain long-term structural integrity in a rough water site. Policy 25 — Enhance Overall Scenic Quality The new dock structure will be consistent with the scenic quality of the area and prevent loss of scenic resources as described in Policy 24 above. Policy 44—Preserve and Protect Tidal Wetlands— The.construction of the fixedwood pile and timber pier has taken advantage of an un-vegetated shoreline caused by the sea conditions and will avoid adverse wetlands impact. The raised height of the pier should allow opportunities for the growth of wetlands vegetation to an extent, beneath the wood pier if sea conditions ever permit enough sediment to accrete in the inter-tidal zone(but that is highly unlikely). SUMMARY This project proposes a replacement fixed pier for essential boating access to and from Great Gull Island for manning and provisioning a scientific research facility. A copy of all US Army Corps of Engineers, NYS DEC and Town of Southold applications are attached as substantiation for this project. This project complies with reasonable applicable standards of the New York State Coastal Management Act, NYS / DEC Tidal Wetland Regulations and criteria for approval, the Town of Southold Waterfront Revitalization Program and Local Ordinance No. 6, 2004 and its approval is respectfully requested.
