The Long Island Power Authority (“Authority”) has determined, based on information provided by PSEG Long Island and the Environmental Assessment Form Parts 1, 2 & 3 prepared by GEI, that the Proposed Action described below will not have a significant adverse impact on the environment and a Draft Environmental Impact Statement will not be prepared. Name of Action: Fire Island Pines to Watch Hill 13 kV Underground Cable (“Proposed Action”) Location: From Barrett Beach to Watch Hill, Fire Island, Town of Brookhaven, New York SEQR Status: Type I Conditioned Negative Declaration: No Proposed Action Description: The Proposed Action includes the installation of a new 13kV underground distribution cable on Fire Island from the Fire Island Pines Substation east to Watch Hill in the Town of Brookhaven, Suffolk County, New York (Figure 1). The Proposed Action follows the path of the existing underground 13 kV cable. The cable section from Fire Island Pines to Barrett Beach (a/k/a Talisman) was completed in May 2017 as there was exposed live cable in publicly accessible areas, which at that time, required immediate remediation. LIPA issued a Negative Declaration for that portion of the work on May 9, 2017. The proposed cable installation will continue from the portion previously completed at Barrett Beach and reach Watch Hill.

In November 2006, it is expected that we will see these Corps recommendations and have a chance to make first comments. Then, in 2007 there will be more time for comments, up until the Corps is able to publish a full plan and Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) under terms of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA).. The Fire Island Association (FIA) has been actively involved since 1960 in these planning efforts. The FIA also had a great deal to do with establishing the Fire Island National Seashore.

  • Long Island's Dynamic South Shore
    Long Island’s Dynamic South Shore A Primer on the Forces and Trends Shaping Our Coast Jay Tanski Long Island’s Dynamic South Shore A Primer on the Forces and Trends Shaping Our Coast Introduction Long Island’s Atlantic coastline is a special place for many reasons. The south shore is home to a wide variety of habitats which support a vast array of plants and animals, some threatened or endan- gered. It is also the place where millions of people live, work, and play. The 120-mile coast stretching between Coney Island and Montauk is remarkably diverse in terms of its physical characteristics, use, and development. This shore contains everything from heavily developed urbanized barrier islands to New York State’s only federally-designated wilderness area. Area beaches are a prime recreational resource, attracting millions of visitors every year and serving as the foundation of a multibillion-dollar regional tourism industry. Long Island’s coast is also extremely dynamic, constantly changing in response to natural processes associated with wind, waves, and tides as well as human activities. The dynamic nature of the shoreline coupled with people’s desire to use and enjoy the shoreline presents unique chal- lenges in managing this resource. Making decisions that balance conservation of the natural environ- ment with significant demand for use of the shore requires a sound understanding of the processes shaping and impacting the coast. This primer provides a brief overview of what we know about coastal processes and erosion on Long Island’s south shore, based on the best available scientific information.
