ENB Region 1 Completed Applications 08/06/2003

The applicant proposes to recreate an inlet through Cape Gerard linking Gardiner's Bay and Accabonac Harbor.  A culvert-bridge is proposed to be installed across the inlet to accommodate vehicular and pedestrian traffic on Gerard Drive.  The purpose of the project is to increase flushing in the north end of Accabonac Harbor.  This increased flushing is expected to lead to decreased siltation and an increased growth of eelgrass in the area, and thus to an overall increase in the diversity and productivity of the Harbor. The project is located approximately 3000' north of the southern terminus of Gerard Drive in Springs in the Town of East Hampton in Suffolk County, SCTM# 300-42-01-02 and 300-42-02-1,2.

The applicant proposes the repair, renovation and asphalt resurfacing of an existing approximate 24,079 square foot parking lot including: definition and provision for two handicapped spaces, three boat trailer spaces and 34 standard vehicle spaces; installation of seventeen leaching basins within the parking lot to contain all stormwater runoff; concrete curbing; and lighting, to provide safe parking and public access for passive recreational uses at Town and Trustee owned open space. The applicant also proposes construction of a 200 square foot public bathroom facility, including a 1,200 gallon septic tank and three leaching pools with allowance for three future expansion pools (all greater than 100 feet landward of freshwater wetlands and surface waters associated with Wildwood Lake).  The property is located at Wildwood Park, Moriches-Riverhead Road (C.R. 63), SCTM#0900-164-04-01, Riverhead, Southampton Town, Suffolk County, Wildwood Lake, FWW#R-10, Peconic River Recreational Corridor.

The applicant proposes to construct a single family dwelling, septic system, and driveway approximately 76' from Freshwater Wetland SO-29.  A 70' buffer area is to remain natural and undisturbed.  The property is located at Second Avenue, Peconic, Town of Southold.
