The only difference about this is that the actual location of the catwalk is not where it is indicated on the drawing. It ' s actually more to the. . . . . .actually a little right of center of the lot , and I believe the owner also agreed with us that the float , rather than being perpendicular to the shoreline, which would probably be a navigational hazard, should be parallel to the shoreline, brought back in as close to the shore, similiar to his neighbors (Mr. Occhiogrosso) . There was no objection to the rails, on the ramp & catwalk, as this was probably for safety . reasons. . The trustees want a corrected diagram, reflecting the proper location of the n structure, from Mr. Haje.

There was no sign of erosion, . if this were approved it would be the first one of this kind in the area and we didn't see that this was necessary. We would like to see him replant in front to restore the beach to its natural state rather than to construct this retaining wall. Trustee Smith stated that the Trustees thought that being there are no retaining walls in this area, it may put. a hardship on the neighbors in the area, and we deem it unnecessary.

Notice of Complete Application-by Bayview Ventures, Inc. to discharge waste water from a water supply treatment plant to the easterly arm of Deep Hole Creek. The proposed discharge is located within an area designated as a sole source aquifer. Contact person: Mr. Robert N. Thurber, NYSDEC, Bldg. 40, SUNY--Room 219, Stony Brook, written comments by June 22, 1984. The Town Board has entrusted Councilman Paul Stoutenburgh, who is giving it to Dave Emilita to review. So perhaps you can get in touch with him and see what his opinion is on it. If you are going to have a treatment plant . Trustee Smith: What was that treatment for? Ruth Oliva: The Bayview Ventures is a sub-division. They have basically the same problems with the water as they did up here in Orient-the Approved Settlers- except they didn't make the five acres or better. They have to put in a separate water treatment plant and they are going to have to also put in some central sewerage system, probably because of the depth of the ground water. So then they want to build this and then discharge this waste water into the creek. 1. That creek is not that big, so it will certainly change the composition of what' s ever in there. Plus if you do that you aren' t recharging your own ground water. How long are they going to Gvv Board of Town Trustees -6- May 24, 1984 keep pumping before they are going to be pulling in salt . Trustee Smith: Not only that but they are going to change the salinity of the creek. Ruth Oliva: This application to the DEC is just for the discharge of the State Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (SPDES) Permit . Trustee Kujawski: How is this discharge going to be accomplished without a Wetland Permit? Trustee Smith: Or a Trustee Permit? . Ruth Oliva: I just thought I should bring it to your attention. The Trustees were quite concerned with this. They have many questions concerning the changing of salinity and: the construction of discharge pipes. A letter will be forwarded to Mr. . Thurber with comments regarding same. The Trustees reviewed the correspondence from Mr. Tuthill and Mr. Geideman in regard to the bulkhead that. was constructed for Mr. Israel in Gull Pond. Trustee Smith .stated that he was there looking at the bulkhead, I don' t think it was exceptionally high tide, but water was up against that bulkhead. Trustee Smith • stated that the building inspector should be notified and the Bay Constable for this violation. Trustees felt this was certainly on the Town bottom. A letter was received from John and Linda Kowalski reflecting the change in location, for the nature. walk at Ole Jule Lane, Mattituck, in James Creek. A copy of same has been placed in the file.
