The Coastal Erosion Hazard Area is hereby established
to classify land and water areas within the Village of Southampton,
based upon shoreline recession rates or the location of natural protective
features. The boundaries of the area are established on the final
map prepared by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation
under § 34-0104 of the New York State Environmental Conservation
Law and entitled, "Coastal Erosion Hazard Area Map of the Village
of Southampton," including all amendments made thereto by the Commissioner
of the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation pursuant
to § 34-0104 of the New York State Environmental Conservation
law.
No person may engage in any regulated activity
in an erosion hazard area as depicted on the Coastal Erosion Hazard
Area Map of the Village of Southampton, as amended without first obtaining
a coastal erosion management permit. No coastal erosion management
permit is required for unregulated activities.
A coastal erosion management permit will be
issued only with a finding by the Administrator that the proposed
regulated activity:
A.
Is reasonable and necessary, considering reasonable
alternatives to the proposed activity and the extent to which the
proposed activity requires a shoreline location.
B.
Is not likely to cause a measurable increase in erosion
at the proposed site and at other locations.
C.
Prevents, if possible, or minimizes adverse effects
on natural protective features and their functions and protective
values, existing erosion protection structures and natural resources.
