SEQRA DETERMINATION: The Zoning Board of Appeals has visited the property under consideration in this application and determines that this review falls under the Type II category of the State's List of Actions, without further steps under SEQRA. SUFFOLK COUNTY ADMINISTRATIVE CODE: This application was referred as required under the Suffolk County Administrative Code Sections A 14-14 to 23, and the Suffolk County Department of Planning issued its reply dated December 30, 2013, stating that this application is considered a matter for local determination,as there appears to be no significant county-wide or inter-community impact. LWRP.DETERMINATION: This application was referred for review under Chapter 268, Waterfront Consistency review of the. Town of Southold Town Code and the Local Waterfront Revitalization Program (LWRP) Policy Standards. The LWRP Coordinator issued a recommendation dated December 20, 2013. Based upon the information provided on the LWRP Consistency Assessment Form submitted to this department, as well as the records available to us, it is our recommendation that the proposed action is CONSISTENT with LWRP,policy standards and therefore is CONSISTENT with the LWRP. PROPERTY FACTS/DESCRIPTION: The Applicants' property is a 2.02+/- acre,waterfront parcel in the R-120 zone. The northerly lot line is adjacent to Fishers Island Sound. The easterly lot line borders an adjacent residential parcel. The southerly lot line is adjacent to Clay Point Road,and the westerly lot line borders another residential parcel. The property is improved with an existing single family dwelling, a detached two story garage, and an in ground swimming pool with pool house, terrace, stairs, and equipment/storage shed, as shown, with all proposed changes; alterations, and new construction, on the site survey drawn by CME Associates, Engineering, Land Surveying&Architecture,PLLC, dated Nov. 15,2013. BASIS OF APPLICATION: Request for Variance from Article XXII Section 280-116A(1) and the Building Inspector's December 5, 2013 Notice of Disapproval based on an application for building permit for partial demolition and additions and alterations to existing single family dwelling, at; 1) less than the code required setback of 100 feet from the top of bluff. RELIEF REQUESTED: The Applicants request a variance in order to construct alterations and additions to an existing one story single family dwelling, with a proposed 63.75 feet setback from the top of the bluff,where a 100 feet setback is required by Code. The Applicants propose to partially demolish the existing one-story structure and construct a new two-story addition with an attached two-story garage. The Applicants also propose to remove Page 2 of 3—January 23,2014 ZBA#6716—Kooyker/Corrente SCTM#1000-3-1-5 several other accessory structures, all with non-conforming setbacks from the top of the bluff, including an existing in ground swimming pool,pool house, storage shed,terrace, stairs, and an existing detached two-story garage. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: This property was the subject of a prior ZBA decision in Appeal 2354, dated Nov. 3, 1977, in which a previous owner was denied a variance which would have altered and/or eliminated the Code requirement for swimming pool fencing. A memorandum was received from Suffolk County Soil and Water Conservation District dated Jan. 7, 2014, detailing a site inspection conducted January 6, 2014, and containing recommendations based upon this inspection. The Applicants representatives at the hearing agreed to implement these recommendations to the fullest possible extent. FINDINGS OF FACT/REASONS FOR BOARD ACTION: The Zoning Board of Appeals held a public hearing on this application on January 9,2014,at which time written and oral evidence were presented. Based upon all testimony, documentation,personal inspection of the property and surrounding neighborhood, and other evidence,the Zoning Board fmds the following facts to be true and relevant and makes the following findings: 1. Town Law 4267-b(3)(b)(1). Grant of the variance will not produce an undesirable change in the character of the neighborhood or a detriment to nearby properties. The Applicants' proposed project includes the demolition of several structures, all with nonconforming setbacks from the top of the bluff, including an in-ground swimming pool,an accessory pool house, a storage shed, terrace, stairs, an a two story detached garage. While the proposed new two story attached garage and the other proposed additions and alterations to the existing single family dwelling will also have non-conforming setbacks to the top of the bluff, the removal of all other nonconforming structures much closer to the top of the bluff will produce an overall benefit to the character of the neighborhood. Additionally,the Applicants' proposed project will reduce existing lot coverage by+/-12%,from 5.5%to 4.8%. 2. Town Law 4267-b(3)(b)(2). The benefit sought by the applicant or cannot be achieved by some method, feasible for the applicant to pursue, other than an area variance. The existing single-family dwelling has a 70.5 feet non-conforming setback from the top of the bluff,therefore any renovations within the non-conforming area require a variance. 3. Town Law 4267-b(3)(b)(3). The variance granted herein is mathematically substantial, representing 36.25% relief from the code. However, in relation to the existing, non-conforming 70.5 feet setback from the top of the bluff of the single family dwelling, the proposed increase in non-conformity to a setback of 63.75 feet for a new 191 sq. ft addition to the existing structure is not substantial. The Applicants' site plan does also include the removal of several other non-conforming accessory structures that are closer to the top of the bluff, as well as a 12%reduction in total lot coverage. 4. Town Law 4267-b(3)(b)(4) No evidence has been submitted to suggest that a variance in this residential community will have an adverse impact on the physical or environmental conditions in the neighborhood. The removal of other non-conforming accessory structures as proposed by The Applicants will serve to enhance the environmental conditions on this property, including the removal an in-ground swimming located in close proximity to the top of the bluff, that is also suspected of being a source of bluff erosion. The Applicants must comply with Chapter 236 of the Town's Storm Water Management Code and they will implement all Suffolk County Soil and Water recommendations to the fullest possible extent. 5. Town Law 4267-b(3)(b)(5). The difficulty has been self-created. The applicant purchased the parcel after the Zoning Code was in effect and it is presumed that the applicant had actual or constructive knowledge of the limitations on the use of the parcel under the Zoning Code in effect prior to or at the time of purchase. 6. Town Law 4267-b. Grant of the requested relief is the minimum action necessary and adequate to enable the applicant to enjoy the benefit of a new additions and alterations,including an attached garage,while preserving and protecting the character of the neighborhood and the health, safety and welfare of the community. Page 3 of 3—January 23,2014 ZBA#6716—Kooyker/Corrente SCTM#1000-3-1-5 RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD: hi considering all of the above factors and applying the balancing test under New York Town Law 267-B, motion was offered by Member Horning, seconded by Member Weisman (Chairperson), and duly carried,to GRANT, the variance/variances as applied for, and shown on the survey prepared by CME Associates, Engineering,Land Surveying&Architecture,PLLC, dated Nov. 15, 2013. CONDITIONS: 1. The Applicants will utilize the best management practices and recommendations of Suffolk County Soil and Water Conservation District as delineated in the memorandum dated Jan. 7, 2014, to the fullest possible extent. 2. The Applicants will either discontinue the use of a faulty lawn irrigation system, or certify that all necessary repairs have be made to the system in order to prevent excess fresh water runoff from the seaward slope of the bluff. That the above conditions be written into the Building Inspector's Certificate of Occupancy, when issued. Any deviation from the survey, site plan and/or architectural drawings cited in this decision will result in delays and/or a possible denial by the Building Department of a building permit, and may require a new application and public hearing before the Zoning Board of Appeals. Any deviation from the variances) granted herein as shown on the architectural drawings, site plan and/or survey cited above, such as alterations, extensions, or demolitions, are not authorized under this application when involving nonconformities under the zoning code. This action does not authorize or condone any current or future use, setback or other feature of the subject property that may violate the Zoning Code, other than such uses, setbacks and other features as are expressly addressed in this action. The Board reserves the right to substitute a similar design that is de minimis in nature for an alteration that does not increase the degree of nonconformity.

Dear Chairperson Weisman, A site visit was conducted on January 6, 2014 to evaluate resource concerns with the proposed addition of a second story and garage as well as the demolition of the pool, bathhouse and existing garage. The following are the observations and recommendations reflective of the site inspection. y 4 e:Y"y The house and garage is sited atop of a well vegetated and sloping lawn which transitions to rocky bluff on a northern shoreline of Fishers Island. 0111cc Hours:M(Hiday d►nnigli'llmrulay 7,30 ami,to 1.0)p.m. Friday 7:30 a.m.Ihrmgh 30)p.m. The proposed construction of the western side of the house expands the foot print of the house leeward towards the shoreline as noted by the provided blueprints and delineated by orange survey markers. The house is fitted with gutters and downspouts, however many of the downspouts are not fitted with dry wells especially on the bluff side of the buildings. t 3 The bathhouse, pool and pool maintenance building are sited in front and to the side of the house, down the northwestern slope. Significant cuts were made into the slope to install the pool and patio area. At least a 4.5 foot elevation difference occurs between the pool patio and top of the brick retaining wall, with the depth of the pool being unknown. The property and the pool are not fenced. w Jq a f The pool filter and associated piping is enclosed in the pool shed. Black piping, which is suspected as being the drainage line for the pool, exits the rear of the shed and travels down the slope under the split rail fence. It continues towards the adjacent property and the top of the bluff. The high mass of vines and other landscaping debris (which appeared recently clipped), made it impossible to identify the discharge point. It is unknown if this piping and discharge point is contained within the property boundary or extends onto the neighboring property. Irrigation lines. Severed line In its entirety, the sloping yard is well vegetated with the exception of a handful of balding spots on the eastern section of the yard. The yard is serviced by a pop up sprinkler system as noted by exposed irrigation lines and sprinkler heads. A break in one of the lines was identified under shrubbery mid slope. �O { „ . e a . Stairway Bare areas and lack of buffer on eastern lawn/top of bluff A stairway, which is in stable condition, bisects the middle of the bluff providing access to the rocky beach. To the east of the stairway atop of the bluff, no protective vegetation occurs as the manicured lawn is maintained up to the bluffs edge. y. The bluff face along the eastern section increases in , height from 8 feet to 15 feet in an easterly direction. The slope is covered with varying degrees of woody and herbaceous vegetation as well as small boulders. The middle section of the bluff is in stable condition but is experiencing erosion on the far eastern section. At this location, it was difficult to w` ascertain if this erosion is occurring on this or the adjacent property. Fast side of the bluff with erosion -Approximate Property Boundary derined by the arrows. t , ti z +a� Erosion and sediment deposition adjacent to stairway The beginning of bluff erosion was also identified on the eastern slope immediately adjacent to the stairway. Active deposition was occuring during the site visit which was not immediately obvious due to the degree of woody vegetation obscuring the bluff face. Further investigations identified the initial formation of vertical faces and weeping of water down the slope. An exposed layer of clay along with saturated soils, caused by water traveling through the soil profile appears to be contributing to this erosion. A mature tree occurs on this slope next to the stairs and a limited degree of boulders occur at the toe and face the bluff. i I kW ,S Western bluff On the western section of the bluff, a vegetated buffer exists along the length with the exception of the far side. At this location a large mature tree of approximately 20 inches in DBH exists at the top of the bluff. ,aa a , The understory on the landward side of the tree appears to recently have been trimmed to the ground as previously noted. The bluff along this entire section is in stable condition with the toe and face being protected by large boulders. The only section where erosion was found occurring was on the western most section approximately 15 feet west of the tree, in the vicinity of the black pool discharge pipe. At this location, vertical faces and overhanging lips of vegetation have developed. The boulders protecting the shoreline are notably smaller and not reinforcing the bank. Further evidence of erosion is identified in the toppled cherry tree and exposed roots in this area. Recommendations: Shoreline properties are regularly threated by erosion caused by tidal scour and storm events. The demolition of the pool and associated structures will effectively reduce the onsite building footprint and provide long term structural insurances against the effects of bluff erosion by increasing the distance between structures and the bluff. In addition, the demolition of the pool will eliminate the large volume water discharges onto the top of the bluff which are a suspected catalyst, magnifying the bluff erosion on western side of the property. In addition and equally important, the removal of the pool will eliminate the drowning hazard and liability of having an unfenced pool in a residential area. However, in order to recognize the benefits of these advances, it is critically necessary to implement best management practices during the demolition and construction process, to protect the integrity of the bluff as well as soil and water quality. First; heavy equipment (backhoes, dump trucks, vehicles, etc.) used in the demolition of the pool, pool house and maintenance shed should access the area from the west side of the property and should not travel across the yard or be sited below the pool area. This will protect the soils from compaction and protect structural integrity of the bluff. This is especially important in considering the volume of soil fill that will be necessary to fill the pool's and retaining walls void and bring it up to grade. It is encouraged that all debris be removed by hand or wheel barrows as much as possible. The demolition of the pool should be timed to commence with grading and seeding between the months of April and May or September and October to facilitate quick vegetation establishment thereby preventing erosion on the steep grade. Accordingly, silt fencing should be installed parallel to the contour and as close to area of soil disturbance as possible to prevent sedimentation into the bay. Additionally, the fill used should be lightly compacted to provide soil structure but not to the degree in which compaction and poor permeability or infiltration occurs. The chosen turf grass seed mix should be hand seeded onto a prepared seed bed, tamped or rolled lightly to provide good soil to seed contact. A covering of straw mulch and jute matting (running up and down the slope and tied into the slope at the top and bottom) should also be stabled atop the seeded surface to help hold soil and seed in place on the steep slopes. Irrigation should be used very sparingly to facilitate germination and establishment but no runoff over the bluff face should occur from this application. Water and wind are catalyzing forces of erosion damaging the toe, face and top of the bluff. Sources of water can be naturally occurring (tidal action, weathering and storm events) and/or conveyed anthropogenic sources, i.e. construction activities, irrigation systems, roof runoff, sloped lawns, and pool discharges. All sources, individually and/or combined have the potential to catalyze erosion on the bluff. Therefore eliminating as many sources of runoff is critically important to protecting the bluff during and following construction. First, the water from the pool should not be discharged onto the ground rather into the ground prior to demolition. The volume of water being discharged onto the ground or onto the bluff can cause severe bluff erosion which is costly to abate.Accordingly the discharge line should be removed as part of the demolition activities. As part of the reconstruction, the entire house should be fitted with gutters, downspouts and dry wells to discharge water directly into the ground. This will compensate for the impermeable surfaces that would otherwise contribute water on the steep sloping lawn. Additionally the use of the irrigation system on the lawn area is strongly discouraged. Eliminating the irrigation system reduces the potential for runoff. If the irrigation system is to be utilized then servicing the broken line is imperative. A timer should be installed on all sprinklers to ensure irrigation only occurs as needed and not during or immediately after rain events when the ground is already saturated and prone to runoff. Generally, turf apanese barberry(Berberis thunbergii) grasses' maximum consumptive use is just over one inch of water per week. The use of native plants is highly encouraged in place of invasives such as the Japanese barberry (Berberis thunbergii) that will be removed by the demolition. Native plants are encouraged for all landscaping activities and should be selected for salt and drought tolerances. Selecting plants for such specific environmental and cultural conditions helps ensure their persistence in the landscape without supplemental water (irrigation) and f, care(nutrients)while providing important sediment and erosion control. One plant of note on the property is a beautiful high blueberry(Vaccinium corymbosum) specimen which is encouraged for protection during demolition due to is age and unique character. It also provides excellent food resources to wildlife(and humans). Dense vegetation on the lawn, bluff face and top of bluff is integral in Highbush blueberry(Vaccinium coryubosum)in helping stabilize the bluff. The roots form a matrix within the soil yard next to pool providing structure to the sandy and stony soils above while the ground --- - - vegetation buffers against wind erosion and reduces velocity of runoff, t_ encouraging infiltration. Therefore, a buffer of at least 20 feet is (' encouraged to be implemented on the eastern section of the top of the bluff with the western buffer being maintained. This can be achieved by limiting mowing of this area. The greatest reduction in runoff on slopes is recognized in maintaining natural densely vegetated grassland for a lawn by ceasing mowing in its entirety and allowing grasses mature naturally, as the neighboring Natural unmowed area of neighbor 1 property had done. The elimination of mowing significantly reduces the velocity of runoff encouraging infiltration and reduces the grasses dependence on irrigation. Mowing can be facilitated as necessary to prevent woody succession at this location. The more moderate option includes adjusting the deck height to facilitate mowing at six inches rather than down to four inches or less. Likewise, this will help slow the water velocities on the sloping lawn and further encourage infiltration, improve lawn health, and reduce the need for supplemental irrigation. While bluff erosion cannot be fully abated, these proactive numerous measures can be implemented to reduce and protect the integrity and stability of the bluff. Lastly, at this location the majority, if not all of the bluff is in moderate to stable condition. However erosion is occurring on the far western and eastern side and beginning immediately along the stairways. It is expected that the eastern erosion will travel in a westerly direction compromising the integrity of the stable bluff. In addition, the small area of bluff erosion next the stairway will similarly continue to expand especially under flooding and toe scour from storm events. This erosion has the potential to compromise the structural stability of the stairway. At this time, this erosion does not pose a threat to the structures on this property, however if left exposed will magnify and spread exponentially. As such the impact and costs will also drastically increase. Therefore it is encouraged that the erosion be addressed in a timely manner in conjunction with both adjacent neighbors. As this bluff is being impacted by toe erosion, a structural solution will be necessary, which could be as simple as reinforcing the shoreline with additional boulders. However, our office does not specialize in structural installations and defers to Jay Tanski, Coastal Erosion Specialist of NY Sea Grant (jtanski@cornell.edu) for his professional recommendation. The continued protection and function of shoreline measures and investments necessitates the inspection of the shoreline and best management practices periodically and especially after storm events and conducting necessary repairs as soon as possible. Accordingly, as much native herbaceous and low growing native woody vegetation should be inspected and replanted in bare or reducing areas as necessary to buffer against both wind and water erosion. The vegetation should not be trimmed and walking on the bluff is not encouraged. Also, only herbaceous vegetation should be established at the top of the bluff. Lastly, no landscaping materials should be disposed of on the bluff as this serves as mulch that will smother vegetation. If you have any questions regarding this report, please feel free to contact our office. Sincerely, Y � Polly L.

The new garage addition will be positioned farther away from the property line than are the existing accessory structures,:giving additional relief to the west neighbor. The proposed one-story addition on the north side of the existing house will be a distance of 63.75 from the bluff line. 2.The benefit sought by the applicant CANNOT:be achieved by some method feasible for the applicant to pursue;.other ihan'an,area variance,because; any work to a portion Of a principal structure within existing non-conforming setbacks must go through the variance process. I The amount of relief requested is.not substantial because: the net effect of this project if given approval will be a reduction in the.property's non-conformity. 4:The variance will .NOT have:an adverse:effect or impact:on the physical or environmental conditions in the neighborhood or district because; the project will create more open space by the elimination of three accessory structures and a swimming pool -- a clear benefit to the environment and to neighbors' properties. The garage addition will be built closer to the street, improving the west neighbor's sight lines. 5 Has the alleged.difficulty been self created? J)Q Yes,or{ I No Why: The owners.are.interested in reducing their built footprint_. Are there`any Covenants of Restrtctions concert ngahis land? { }No t9 Yes tlilease'furhish'a,copy) This is the MINIMUM that is necessary and.adequate,and:at the same time preserve and protect the character of the neighborhood and the health;safety and welfare of the community.

The findings of the Board are that the applicant is the owner of a parcel .of .land approximately two acres in area. The swimming pool in question is located between the applicant's house and Fishers Island Sound to the north. The pool is partially surrounded by the house and a brick wall, and it is up to the Building Inspector to determine whether these presently existing structures can be included as part of the fencing require- ment. The Board has never varied the fencing requirement for swimming pools as it is our belief that aesthetic considerations are outweighed by the safety factor involved. The Ordinance was written to protect all residents of the Town from"attractive nuisances. " The Board finds that strict application of the Ordinance would 'not produce practical difficulties or unnecessary hardship; the hardship created is not unique and would be shared by all properties alike in the immediate vicinity of this property and in the same use district; and the variance will change the character of the neighbor- hood, and will not observe the spirit• of the Ordinance. THEREFORE IT WAS RESOLVED, Rowland Robbins, Fishers Island, New York, be DENIED permission to eliminate swimming pool fence, Private Road, Block 25, Lot. 8, Fishers Island Estates, Fishers Island, New York. - Vote of the Board: Ayes: - Messrs: Gillispie, Bergen, Hulse, Grigonis, Doyen. is l+r.� •. &Z.i ':�T7 1" 1 :;r i"D 171"2li.)

A result of these forces and conditions is erosion. Bluff erosion is a natural process that can be slowed but not stopped. The only prediction that can be made is that bluff erosion will occur; the timing and magnitude of the erosion however cannot. Areas along the coastline may experience accelerated rates of erosion due to any of the above factors and the threat of erosion is magnified by winter storms and extreme high tides. In these instances, houses and structures sited atop of top of bluffs are at risk from erosion. H. The erosion of high sandy bluffs along coastlines has challenged conservationists since they were first observed. Typical of such bluffs are those along the north shore of Long Island. The soil material is sandy and erosive, being easily moved by wind or water. Bluff height varies from a few to well over 100 feet. The slopes vary but are usually very steep, occurring at a 1:1 ratio. The standard profile of an eroding bluff and the noted factors that individually and/or combined contribute to erosion. Typical Characteristics of Eroding Bluffs sloping ih6 wr rtq direction over an ina lip r'et'narits of old vegetotion, boulder, etc devegetated slope: daroding tire. normal higgh tide May 2013 mom,. III. Numerous attempts have been made by landowners to stabilize bluff slopes; only a few have succeeded. Although no procedure can guarantee a permanent solution or stop this erosion, the following measures have been found to be the most effective in obtaining the best possible stabilization of the bluff face. Best Management Practices for Slowinje Natural Bluff Erosion water diverted away from slope over hanging lip removed F well vegetated Tape Natural Angle of ReposeJK j well vegetated toe -s' normal high tide Stabilization of the toe and top of the bluff (ideally simultaneously) must occur. Implementing practices (such as revegetation, terracing, geo-textiles) without achieving this stability will not be successful. Resulting in a loss of time, resources, and financial investment as these areas are compromised by erosion. Once both of these areas are stabilized, efforts should be focused on remediating the bluff face. Although stabilization of the toe and top is recommended first, the environment should be evaluated holistically. Thereby, remediation of the bluff face should occur in conjunction with and/or as soon as possible after the remediation of the top and toe. Top Stabilization: a. Remove the overhanging lip at the top of the slope creating a natural angle of repose. This is generally a 1:1 slope or 45 degree angle. b. Any trees along the top edge of the bluff should be cut at the base leaving the roots in place. Tall trees swaying in the wind will loosen the bluff soils. c. Do not allow surface water (i.e. pool water, runoff, irrigation water) to flow over the top of the slope. Installation of a diversion with a catch basin drain and a vegetated natural buffer both serve this purpose. d. ,No ground disturbing activities should occur within 10 feet of the edge of the bluff. This includes installation of landscaping plants, irrigation systems, decks, and fences. e. Pools should be installed with an in ground drain to facilitate drainage (unless clay lenses exist within the bluff profile). May 2013 2 f. Houses should be fitted with gutters and down spouts which discharge into dry wells in order to reduce runoff flowing over the bluff edge. g. Sprinklers should not discharge water onto or near the bluff face. h. Irrigation scheduling should not exceed the peak consumptive requirements of the turf grasses (approximately 1"per week). Toe Stabilization: a. The use of vegetation is the preferred method to maintain a stabile toe. However, vegetation alone is not always successful. A good indicator of whether or not vegetation will stabilize the toe is the location of the mean high tide (MHT) mark. If MHT reaches the toe of the bluff, it is unlikely that vegetation alone will stabilize this site. If this is the situation, a consultation with NRCS or the SC SWCD can provide you with other alternatives. b. If a hardening structure, such as a bulkhead or rock revetment exists, it is critical that proper maintenance occurs to these structures. Such regular maintenance prolongs the life. The additional benefits are the protection the toe of the bluff and reduction in repair/replacement costs. The following are the maintenance activities that should occur on the bulkhead. ➢ Decaying and or damaged boards should be replaced. ➢ Holes behind the bulkhead should be filled with sand. ➢ Geotextile must be maintained between the bulkhead or revetment in order to retain sand behind the structure. The lack of geotextile in combination with wave action will pull sediment through the structure eventually cause collapse and failure. ➢ Vegetation (beach grass, Spartina patens, Coastal Panic grass) should be maintained on top of the bulkhead. Bluff Face: a. Any trees along the top edge and on the bluff face should be cut at the base leaving the roots in place. b. Trash, grass clippings, leaves and branches should not be disposed of on the bluff face. This creates instability as the debris adds weight to the bluff face and dually smothers vegetation. Thus, such debris should be removed from the bluff face and disposed of properly. c. A natural angle of repose should occur on the bluff face. Depending on the height and location of the vertical faces, such an angle may not be practical. Grading is a satisfactory practice to create such a natural slope at locations where such an angle can be achieved. Care should be taken to not disturb stabile areas of the bluff in an attempt to stabilize the eroding locations. Such precautions will prevent additional erosion problems on the bluff. d. Re/Vegetate the slope. ➢ `Cape' American beach grass and Spartina patens plugs should be used for this purpose and transplanted while dormant in the late winter or May 2013 3 vy early spring. Planting should occur from the top of the bluff face down. Both Spartina and Beachgrass should be planted 12" apart. Rows should be separated by 12" and the plants should be staggered with plants in adjacent rows. ➢ Each full row should consist of entirely Beachgrass or Spartina and the rows should alternate between these the two species. For Beachgrass, one 35mm film canister of Osmocote slow release fertilizer should be placed into each planting hole and then plant three stems or culms per hole. ➢ To add diversity to the bluff planting, reduce the threat of disease, and compensate for natural beach grass die out, it is recommended to broadcast the following warm season grass mixture immediately prior to planting the `Cape' American beach grass. ➢ The warm season grass mixture should consist of: `LI Ecotype or Blackwell' Switch grass (Panicum virgatum)* 4 PLS lb/Ac `Atlantic' Coastal panic grass (Panicum amarum)* 5 PLS lb/Ac `LI Ecotype or Niagara' Big bluestem (Andropogon gerardii)* 5 PLS lb/Ac Coastal or LI ECOTYPE Little bluestem (Schizachyrium scoparium v. littoriale)* 3 PLS lb/Ac Sheep fescue (Festuca ovina) for quick,temporary cover 10 lb/Ac `Monarch' Seaside Goldenrod (Solidago sempervirens v. monarch) 1 lb/Ac `Golden Jubilee' Black-eyed Susan (Rudbeckia hirta) 1 lb/Ac Partridge Pea(Chamaecrista fasciculata) 1 lb/Ac Common Evening Primrose (Oenothera biennis) 1 lb/Ac (*Rates are in Pure Live Seed in Pounds Per Acre.) Spreading this seed mix just prior to planting the Beachgrass and Spartina, allows for the incorporation of the seed by foot traffic and sand disturbance as the beach grass is planted. This action is critical to a good seed establishment. Adapted shrubs and vines can be added when the slope is well stabilized with the above listed grasses. Species include Bayberry, Beach pea, Shore rose, and Beach plum. ➢ Apply 201b/ac of nitrogen in June, if beach grass vigor is declining. ➢ Maintenance of the vegetated slope will be required on a continuous basis. Remove debris from planted areas; keep all water diverted from the slope; do not over-irrigate the lawn above; avoid excessive foot traffic and repair any damaged or eroding areas.

It is best adapted to silt loam or sandy loam soils and is i r occasionally found on loamy sand soils. It also tolerates shallow,dry,gravelly soils.Common habitats are exposed s bench lands,hillsides and ridges,parks,meadows, forestlands,and open ponderosa and lodgepole pine stands.It is also tolerant of weakly saline to alkaline and iacidic soil conditions. It has excellent cold tolerance,good drought tolerance, h t? and moderate shade tolerance. It is more drought tolerant than Idaho fescue and hard fescue. Sheep fescue is best adapted to 12 inch plus precipitation zones.It is fairly tolerant of fire in autumn,but requires 2 to 3 years to fully recover after burning. It is not tolerant of high water tables or flooding. It is often found in association with big bluegrass,mountain brome,bluebunch wheatgrass, slender wheatgrass,geranium,western yarrow,mountain big sagebrush,antelope bitterbrush and ponderosa pine.

It grows preferentially on sites with pH 7.0 and slightly higher. Establishment Seeding methods for this species have not been developed for backdune stabilization.Chopping stems with mature seed attached into the sand may result in some natural recruitment. However,the most reliable method of establishment is planting plugs of this species on a 2-3 foot spacing between rows of beachgrass. A soluble fertilizer such as 10-10-10 applied at the same rate as for American beachgrass(200- 400 lbs./ac.)will be beneficial for stand establishment of the coastal bluestem. Management No special management requirements have been developed. Pests and Potential Problems There are no serious pests of coastal bluestem.

Cape May Plant Materials Center _ United States Department of Agriculture Natural Resources Conservation Service Plant Materials Program Planting Guide Proudly Serving the Conservation Needs of the U.S.Mid-Atlantic Region from Massachusetts to North Carolina. MONARCH GERMPLASM SEASIDE GOLDENROD (Solidago sempervirens) Primary Use: Dune Restoration Secondary Use: Wildlife Habitat NRCS Conservation Practices: WHIP, dune restoration, wildlife r � habitat, and shoreline erosion control pp Monarch Germplasm seaside goldenrod is a tested class release for use in dune restoration and wildlife habitat in the coastal plain region of the U.S. from Massachusetts to North Carolina. Monarch Germplasm was assembled from collections throughout the Mid-Atlantic region. These h � d collections were placed in a Latin Square crossing block in the field at , the Plant Materials Center. The seed produced from this composite crossing block is broad-based genetic material suitable for dune � � •� µ planting and use throughout the Mid-Atlantic region. Description of the Species a ` Seaside goldenrod is a perennial forb typically three to five feet tall with dark green fleshy leaves produce abundantly along the entire length of the stem. The basal leaves are up to eight inches long and 1/2 to 1 1/2 inches wide tapering to less than one inch in length near the top of the stem. Stems arise from short, stocky rhizomes. In late February and early March, red leaves poke through the dune sand surface and soon become dark green. From late August to early October, the bright yellow flowers provide an attractive contrast to the lush, thick green vegetation. Winter identification is usually made by the bleached skeleton of woody-like stalk and dried flower parts. Goldenrod is insect pollinated, but is often blamed for inducing hay fever and conditions when the wind-pollinated ragweed is most likely the culprit. Adaptation Seaside goldenrod is a native, perennial forb well adapted to the backside of primary dunes, low secondary dunes and edges of salt marshes. The species is known to occur from Maine, south to Florida and west to Indiana and Texas. The area of adaptation of Monarch Germplasm has not been fully tested. Successful plantings have been made along the Atlantic coast from Cape Cod, MA to North Carolina. Because Monarch Germplasm is a composite Anticipated Area of Adaptation of collections from the Mid-Atlantic and southern New England states it should perform well throughout this region. Establishment Presently,the only developed method of propagation is by root stalk or propagule division. Transplants should be made in late winter to early spring. Seeding has potential, but the technique has not been fully developed. Management Seaside goldenrod requires little maintenance. Periodic fertilization of the dunes will help maintain vigor of the vegetation. American beachgrass growing in association with goldenrod will show signs of decline when fertilization is needed long before the goldenrod shows decreased vigor. In fact, seaside goldenrod often volunteers in declining or dead stands of American beachgrass (Ammophila breveligulata).
