NOBODY ASKED ME, BUT (With full credit to the original, the great Jimmy Cannon.) I will bet that Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) will nail Larry Cantwell’s carcass to a wall the first time a young kid who would have called for an Uber car instead drives drunk and gets killed. All because Cantwell barred Uber from East Hampton and there weren’t enough cabs available at 3 in the morning in Montauk. ***** There are some liberals out there who won’t rest until Alexander Hamilton is replaced on the 10-dollar bill by Rosie O’Donnell. ***** Shame on those newspapers that reproduced that monster Dylann Roof’s “Manifesto” for every crazy creep to see. All it can do is cause more bloodshed. Let’s stop giving this beast the attention he was seeking when he killed those sweet, innocent people while they were praying. The next mention and the next picture I want to see of Roof is
when he’s being executed. ***** “Spy” with Melissa McCarthy is one of the funniest pictures I’ve seen in a long time. ***** I’m going to miss trans fats. They were in everything I found delicious: French fries, doughnuts, ice cream . . . ***** I’m thinking of seeing an exorcist to help me get rid of the hatred I have in my heart for kale. I now tell every food server who asks me, “Any food allergies?” that I’m deathly allergic to kale and then I add if kale is being served anywhere in this restaurant I will break out into projectile vomiting. This is a battle I can’t win. The other day my kids offered me some kale popcorn. Sooner or later the Food Mafia will have us all eating kale as the major ingredient in every bite we take. In the end, going out to dinner will consist of a waiter hooking you up to an intravenous
REAL ESTATE
ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT
feeding tube that will send kale directly into your bloodstream. With our free hands we will read our cell phones and at the end of our “meal,” instead of having a conversation, we will all emit a kale burp and go off on our way, still mindlessly staring at our cell phones like the robots we will soon all become. ***** The most letters and messages this column ever got came after I wrote about Cantwell’s insane war against young people and East Hampton businesses and citizens. Every note was positive except one, which was, of course, unsigned. Let’s hope that Larry makes the right decision for his political future and for his constituents and makes sure there will always be plenty of taxis and Uber cars available for everyone. Otherwise, every family in East Hampton who has young kids of drinking age and driving age should vote him out of office in November. ***** A question I would ask David Sweat and Richard Matt, now that they’ve tasted freedom for over two weeks is: “Was getting out of jail worth having the horrible memory for life of having sex with that moose Joyce Mitchell?” ***** Do you know anyone in his or her right mind who would vote for Donald Trump for President? Best Trump gag poster I’ve seen is of The
IN THE NEWS
Donald in all his regal splendor and with those Mussolini-like pouting lips of his. Underneath it reads, “WE SHALL OVERCOMB.” ***** If you’re looking for a few good books to read this summer you might want to read “The English Assassin” by Daniel Silva, “Irene” by Pierre Lemaitre and “City of Thieves” by David Benioff. ***** South Carolina Republican Senator Lindsey Graham will probably join with Governor Nikki Haley and call for the removal of the confederate flag from state grounds. Old Lindsey is a new person now that he’s thrown his “tiara” into the presidential ring. ***** When I become King, people who hold up the line at a checkout counter when they bring more than 15 items to a supermarket aisle that is clearly marked “10 items or less” will be executed on the spot. ***** What is it about Iranians chanting “Death To America” that Barack Obama doesn’t understand? ***** Last Sunday on Route 27 approaching Manorville, 10 to 15 cars pulled over to the shoulder of the road so that their occupants could jump out and take selfies of the beautiful double rainbow that was hanging over the Hamptons. Have we gone nuts? Cars zooming by at 70 MPH and these idiots are taking pictures on the highway. How did your father die? Oh, he was taking a selfie of a rainbow on Father’s Day when he was hit by a car. Oh . . . isn’t that sweet.

A Day In The Life, On The Water By Kitty Merrill
A whale struggles in the surf as worried beachgoers watch from the shore. Having lied about his occupation, in a classic “Seinfeld” episode, George is cornered when people call out, “Is anyone here a marine biologist?” Last Saturday, everyone aboard the Research Vessel Peconic could lay claim to the title. Thanks to a collaboration between Stony
Brook University Southampton, Southampton High School, and the South Fork Natural History Museum, about a dozen kids and their caregivers had the chance to be scientists as they experienced “A Day in the Life of a Marine Biologist.” The group met up at SBU’s School of Marine and Atmospheric Sciences Marine Sciences Center to board the Peconic, a 45-foot long catamaran. It’s houseboat-style vessel, but what lives
there is not people, it’s knowledge. Make that a thirst for knowledge, as that’s what the kids on hand displayed, almost from the minute the morning’s leader, Greg Metzger, began to speak. Metzger teaches marine science, o c e a n o g r a p h y, a q u a c u l t u r e , and hatchery management at Southampton High School, and has for 14 years. He explained that passengers aboard the Peconic would have a chance to use the same equipment scientists use to gain information from both the sediment
Independent/Kitty Merrill
and water of Shinnecock Bay. As the catamaran sailed out of Old Fort Pond Bay into Shinnecock proper, Metzger informed --- Shinnecock is the easternmost bay connected to the Atlantic Ocean, with the connection via the Shinnecock Inlet. The inlet makes Shinnecock Bay a rich study ground, thanks to the influx of ocean water. The flushing of the water provides for a more balanced ecosystem in the bay compared to other water bodies on Long Island’s South Shore. Continued on Page 36.

The Hills Are Alive
By Emily Toy
But not with the sound of music. Last Thursday morning, Southampton Town Board met with AKRF consultant Bob White to discuss the final scoping draft on “The Hills at Southampton.” A mixed-use planned development district proposed for the parcel of land calls for the construction of 108 homes, a clubhouse featuring 10 condos, and an 18-hole golf course, all on 168 acres. Arizona-based Discovery Land Company is the applicant attached to the project, and is the owner of an adjoining property. The project has been met with fierce criticism from
environmentalists and town residents alike, as concerns mount over how forming a high-end golfing community on the largest remaining undeveloped parcel on the South Fork may impact the area. The application has already seen two scheduled scoping hearings, with a resolution slated to be adopted by mid July. Groundwater protection, wastewater management, and water quality in general have been the main issues surrounding the project. The fact that there are continuous issues with nearby Weesuck Creek and Shinnecock Bay, two local bodies of water already plagued with nitrogen overloads,

ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT
does little to ease the minds of residents. The 168-acre parcel sits between Lewis and Spinney Roads in East Quogue. “How much land is going to be disturbed?” questioned Councilman Brad Bender during the work session. “What does it take to get there?” White assured the board the scoping draft presented during the work session outlined strict guidelines as to how the project will evolve. “The analysis covers any and all requirements from other agencies,” White said. “I’ve heard lots of comments on the project site, I understand it’s comprised of a lot of parcels.” Included in the Environmental Impact Study, which was also presented with Town Planning and Development Administrator Kyle

Collins and Principal Planner Amy Pfeiffer, was a study focusing on the potential economic benefits that the development could bring to the hamlet and the East Quogue school district. Discovery Land is estimating that its resort community, which would be marketed for second and third homeowners, would generate an estimated $4.4 million in annual tax revenue for the cash-strapped single school districts. The district is also supposed to receive $40,000 for various improvements and an acre of land for free from the applicant as well. “The developer is doing their homework, and they won’t leave any possible constructive criticism go by the wayside,” said Lawrence “Chip” Porter, of Westhampton Beach. “The ultimate truth is The Hills is a good investment for our community, and it is an opportunity not to be wasted.” Councilwoman Christine Scalera opted to extend the timeframe for adopting the project via resolution for a couple weeks (July 14), to further review the newly drafted final scope.

Code Change: Overdue Or Overkill By Kitty Merrill
Can town officials turn back the clock and undo what’s been done in Montauk? Attorney Larry Kelley doesn’t think they can, but he’s worried they might try anyway. Kelley expressed his suspicions last Thursday night during a public hearing on a revision to East Hampton Town Code deigned to keep motels from morphing into nightclubs. (Think Surf Lodge and Ruschmeyer’s.) Kelley’s quibble relates to a situation at the Memory Motel. During the last administration Supervisor Bill Wilkinson, Councilwoman Julia Prince and then-town attorney John Jilnicki worked with Memory reps to legalize a corral-like fence built in the Main Street, Montauk, bar’s parking lot. All was fine, said Kelley, until last year, when motel owners received a citation for a zoning code violation and were taken to state Supreme Court. In court the town pursued a restraining order to keep the Memory from using the space out front. The courts denied the request for an injunction, working off case law that says when a business owner makes an investment based on representations from government officials, the investment is protected. That denial stood until two weeks ago, when, Kelley reported, his client received another summons for lacking site plan approval. Kelly said that when he asked about the reversal from the Wilkinson era agreement, town officials told him, ‘That was then, this is now.’ He said he and his clients don’t believe the new code change won’t be another way to target the Memory, even though town officials contend it’s aimed at new businesses only. Proponents of the measure believe it could shoot a little straighter, and with higher caliber. Last week attorney Chris Kelley (no relation to Larry) spoke on behalf of the Concerned Citizens of Montauk and the Ditch Plains Association. While he commended the board for taking steps towards improving quality of life for a community under siege by unruly nightlife, Kelley offered a list of additions to the measure. The new law would require any hotel seeking to add a bar or restaurant to have at least 25 rooms. The restaurant can be no more than 2000 square feet and a new bar no more than 1000 square feet. It would prohibit motels in residentially zoned areas from adding accessory bars or restaurants. In other zones, applicants would have to get a special permit from the town planning board after meeting a specific set of standards.
Speaking for his clients, Chris Kelley said they’d like to see access to any new bars be limited to a hotel’s guests only. Another speaker noted that while Beach House representatives said the bar there would be restricted to guests, it’s well known the locale has become a popular nightspot for the public. CCOM and DPA would also like to eliminate outdoor dining or bar service, and prohibit outdoor music of any kind, as well as live music indoors if the establishment is located near residences. The two groups also want any new accessory use to trigger an upgrade to a site’s entire septic system, not just septic related to the new accessory use, CCOM’s Jeremy Samuelson put forth. Allowing a business owner to keep a substandard
system and only upgrade for the new use is “absurd,” he said. Larry Kelley asserted that asking for major upgrades to an entire site is just as absurd, as is the idea that such major upgrades aren’t a big deal. “To say these things aren’t onerous means you haven’t been a businessman,” he said to the town board. (No members of the town board have been businessmen.) There is a “desperate” need for the legislation, said Samuelson and other supporters. Other supporters, however, noted the problems in Montauk exist because pre-existing nonconforming businesses have already expanded, or, as one speaker noted, the horses are already out of the barn. Opponents to the new regs

questioned why the random selection of a 25 room jumping off point. While loud music at night in residential zones was universally decried, some speakers favored allowing low-key music to be allowed. Anywhere you travel in the world, in resorts areas and at high-end hotels with restaurants and bars, one often finds a piano player or guitarist off in a corner, James Daunt, owner of the Albatross noted. The trend is toward boutique resorts where room service is expected. Why shouldn’t a guest in a nine or 10-room hotel be allowed to have breakfast or a glass of wine, Margaret Turner of the East Hampton Business Alliance asked. During work session discussion of the measure, no reliable data was offered to substantiate the 25-room cap, she said. Finally, Turner reminded that any code change that’s adopted will affect all of East Hampton Town, not just Montauk.

MADD Joins Fight To Reinstate Uber
By Rick Murphy
East Hampton Town’s decision to ban Uber continues to spark controversy as critics claim it will add to increased incidents of drunk driving. Uber, the chic new delivery company that pairs passengers with drivers via smart phone technology has become the go-to method of transportation in urban markets

across the country. It was flourishing in East Hampton as well until the town pulled the plug on the operation by enforcing new legislation that requires each driver to have a town permit and a local business address. Uber drivers hold New York City Taxi and Limousine Commission permits and typically come from upisland.

“MADD supports new and emerging technologies which are enabling more transportation options throughout the country and are providing a safe alternative to drunk driving to millions of people across the country,” according to the statement from Mothers Against Drunk Drivers. “As East Hampton considers this important issue in the county with the most alcoholrelated incidents in the state, we urge you to consider the positive impact that new technologies can have on your community to help end drunk driving.” According to an I-Team report released in February Suffolk County had more alcohol-related crashes than any other county in the state from 2010 to 2012. MADD’S’s support comes at a critical time for Uber. Last week the town indicated it means business when it said the 23 Uber drivers arrested in a sting operation would be prosecuted – they could conceivably face jail time. Though Uber officials were muted in their response, sources say they are seething: An Uber spokesman said Uber suspended services in the town on June 5 voluntarily because the town promised to drop 10:51 AM the charges against the drivers. Cantwell said the town never agreed to a deal. East Hampton enacted stringent guidelines after locally licensed cab drivers complained that out of town drivers were usurping their business by cruising for fares and
parking outside late night hot spots in search of a fare. Uber drivers are supposed to answer an electronic call for a passenger and reply to a specific location for the pickup. Cantwell said Uber cars were taking public parking spots and clogging up prime pick up spots.

Fishkill: An Update And An Ask Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone was joined by environmental, state, county and town officials Saturday to provide an update on the recent fish kills on the East End and ask the federal government for additional assistance to help the region with its nitrogen pollution crisis after the second major fish kill in the Peconic Estuary, a federally designated estuary of national significance. Hundreds of thousands of dead fish have recently washed up on the shores around Flanders Bay in the Peconic Estuary. Excess levels of nitrogen spewing from residential septic systems and cesspools as well as fertilizer use are believed to be a significant, contributing factor. The Peconic Estuary is one of 28 federally designated estuaries of national significance by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). “We as a region, and as a nation, need to protect our federal estuaries, and we need wastewater infrastructure to do that,” said County Executive Bellone. “Unfortunately, nothing can be done in the short term to stop this fish kill or an algal bloom from happening. But to reverse this trend we must continue to invest in and upgrade our wastewater treatment infrastructure. To do that, we need additional assistance from our leaders at every level of government to help us combat this problem.” A report citing the specific
causes of the fish kills from the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation and Suffolk County Department of Health is expected to be released within weeks. The DEC continues to be the lead agency on the fish kills. However, the Department CONTINUED ON PAGE 41.

Georgica
Nature Conservancy Benefit “Summer Benefit: Evening on Georgica Pond,” hosted by Priscilla Rattazzi and Chris Whittle, will take place on Saturday. The Rattazzi-Whittle home on Georgica Pond has one of the most beautiful water views on eastern Long Island. Yet Georgica Pond, like so many ponds, harbors and bays on Long Island, was affected by harmful algal blooms last summer – caused by excess nitrogen. The evening will raise funds for the Conservancy’s efforts to reduce the nitrogen pollution that is responsible for widespread algae blooms. The Nature Conservancy helped introduce Georgica Pond homeowners to Dr. Chris Gobler, who is researching the cause of elevated levels of blue-green algae in Georgica Pond last summer. The findings are expected to be released in July. Thereafter, the Conser vancy expects to help implement solutions, just as it has been doing throughout Long Island since launching its science-based campaign to improve water quality in 2012. Corporate Sponsors are ITG and Bloomberg. Benefactors are The ALG Family Foundation, Sandra & Eric Krasnoff, Nicole LaBarbera and David Kelley, The Perelman Family Foundation, Priscilla Rattazzi and Chris Whittle, Patricia & Andrew Steffan, Bettina & Fred Stelle, and Jonathan and Candace Wainwright. Proceeds benefit The Nature Conservancy on Long Island as it protects and restores natural areas including bays, harbors and woodlands; transforms how nature is valued and used; and inspires people to collective action. Cocktails will be served at 6 PM accompanied by Vanessa Trouble, who will perform live. Dinner catered by Acquolina will be served at 8 PM.

Hopper Helps Kids By Emily Toy
The Hampton Hopper will be offering to shuttle kids from Sag Harbor Village to Sagg Main Beach, according to a press release from Benito Vila last week. In March, Vila hosted “Teens Speak Out,” where 25 Pierson High Schools students came out to talk to a group of 12 civic leaders about the programs they’d like to see made available to them. One of the requests at the forum was a shuttle from Sag Harbor to Sagg Main Beach in Sagaponack. Well . . . their wish has been granted. A trial run is slated for Tuesday, with a shuttle from Sag Harbor Village for middle school and high school students, a g e s 13 a n d u p . T h e H o p p e r will run a continuous loop that day, departing initially from the Sag Harbor Cinema Jitney stop at 11:30 AM, with the last run leaving Sagg Main Beach at 4:30 PM. Trips will be provided free of charge. Reservations can be made by mobile devices, or online via The Hampton Hopper app. Thanks to talks with The Free Ride co-founder Alex Esposito, a connection was provided to the Hampton Hopper and its founder Derek Kleinow. The Free Ride is the electric cart shuttle service operating in East Hampton and Southampton. Launched last year, the Hampton Hopper is a local app-based bus ser vice operating weekends on the South Fork, with its bright green school buses providing transportation between the villages, as well as to popular shopping spots, fitness studios, and restaurants. “I get it,” said Esposito. “This is a hard place to get around, for every age group.

to develop The Free Ride. When this shuttle idea came up, I looked into using our electric cars, but it didn’t seem feasible. I knew Derek’s Hopper service was a better fit for the longer distance.” Kleinow, another native to the area, acknowledged similar difficulties with traveling throughout the Hamptons, especially during the busy summer months. “This shuttle run is a good one for our service; we’re not usually operating mid-week and it allows us to do more for the community and its kids.”

EDITORIAL
Righting A Wrong
We were the only local newspaper to editorialize against the barbaric deer sterilization program initiated in East Hampton Village last year. We take no satisfaction that our worst fears have come true. We can only urge those involved in the strongest of terms not to let these atrocities happen again. The lesson learned should be heeded by every East End community wrestling with a deer problem: don’t follow the lead of East Hampton Village. Enid Feinberg, President of Wildlife Rescue, Inc., wrote a blistering letter to this newspaper blasting our editorial last March, but we did not let the matter rest there. We reported her group works with Dr. Anthony DeNicola of White Buffalo, Inc. They are hired by municipalities like East Hampton Village that are trying to cope with an overabundance of deer. Neither company is local; they have no roots in our community. Feinberg, who is based in Maryland, wrote, “The residents of the Village of East Hampton are incredibly fortunate that your Village of East Hampton Board and the Village Preservation Society of East Hampton had the foresight and courage to not follow the failures of other communities who made the mistake of just killing deer.” Feinberg wrote, “Everyone who works with him [DiNicola] and everyone who has volunteered on our project has always treated our deer with the utmost care and compassion.” For the record, The Hartford Courant called Dr. DeNicola, “a professional and proficient deer-killer” and reported by his own count he has killed 10,000 or more deer. And he’s still counting. We are finding surgically spayed deer dying grisly deaths, attempting to give birth to stillborn fawns. They suffer horribly, and the suffering is prolonged. Experts are assuming the deer were already pregnant when they were captured, drugged, forced to undergo major surgery outdoors and then released. We reported a Cornell University study completely debunked claims made by Feinberg and her group when pitching their $100,000 “solution” to the village. Contrary to their promise the deer population would be reduced, the study concluded: “Female deer receiving surgery will experience repeated estrous cycles during winter and spring. Consequently, females may attract more bucks into their home range, which may increase deer-vehicle collision or rubbing damage to valuable ornamental plantings. Most important, the few benefits that spaying programs might have would only be realized in a controlled area. Deer come and go into the village from Wainscott, Sagaponack, East Hampton Town, and even Amagansett via the ocean beach. Rutting males do not stop at the village boundaries. It was a money grab. The good folks at the Village Preservation Society put up the money in good faith to deal with a real problem and the village made a decision based on what they were told. It was the wrong decision. Those involved seem loath to accept their part in this debacle – Mayor Paul Rickenbach is adamant that the program will be completed later this year. There is no shame in making a mistake. Repeating the mistake in the face of this horror would be inexcusable. It would be a shame if Rickenbach’s legacy comes down to this stubborn stance after all his years in office, but it will be difficult remembering him kindly if he persists. There is significant community opposition to this barbaric program. Perhaps the village board will step up and do the right thing – call an end to this, now. Saving face is not an option here. Nor are fiscal concerns, especially for this, one of the wealthiest communities on earth. Saving God’s beautiful creatures from torture and death is the only real priority. Yes, we have a deer problem. This is not the solution.

By Ed Gifford the South Flora Management Plan, saw fit to ban parking on the east side of Dolphin Drive, the only feasible access to the preserve and the beach. The Nature Preserve Committee had unanimously recommended 500 feet of parallel parking on the east side of Dolphin, all on a town right-of-way, not touching the Preserve itself. And Supervisor Cantwell is on record on the front page of last week’s Continued on Page 24.

Star supporting the principle of public access to public spaces purchased with the public’s money. Why doesn’t this principle apply to South Flora? It seems Mr. Cantwell is more concerned about the wealthy homeowners to the West of the Preserve than he is about the right of the citizens of East Hampton to access what is supposed to be a public beach, not a private park. On Thursday, July 2, there will be a hearing on the management plan. I know it’s the day before the holiday starts, but I urge anyone interested in preserving public access to one of the last remaining sites available for a much needed ocean beach to please try to attend the hearing. Please urge the town board to support public access to a preserve and a beach purchased with the public’s money. REG CORNELIA
Expensive Expansion Letter to the Editor, Providing the Ross School with Springs as its bedroom community gives the School enormous potential for expansion. Expansion at the expense of the already overcrowded streets and neighborhoods that comprise Springs. The School website encourages parents to board their children “at the school” -- at the cost of $19,300, per student. The website shows that a non-boarder pays $38,600, while a boarder pays $57,900. Not chump change! The School’s program of boarding students in private homes throughout the Town, received Town approval in 2009, when a former Building Department Inspector unilaterally ruled that students living in a dormitory-style house with

What are your hobbies? Renne Mitchell Sleeping. I’m so busy that it seems like there’s hardly enough time to sleep. But seriously, I like going to the beach, if you can call that a hobby. But I like the beach in Jamacia better than here. The sand is much whiter and the people are a bit friendlier. Carolee Manascalco I love to play golf and I love my book club and I love to read. We just finished a book called Paris Architect, which takes place during WWII. It’s about how this architect helps some of the Jewish people escape.
Donna Montrose I love to spend time decorating my homes. I never actually studied decorating but I love it. And I love playing golf. I don’t play that often but I do enjoy it so much when I do.
Renae Palmer I like going out with my friends and dancing, hanging out together and just socializing. I really do love going dancing. Any kind of dancing is good. Just so long as it’s fun and the music is good.
Letters & Obit Policy The Independent publishes all letters to the editor we receive provided they are not libelous and emailed to news@indyeastend. com. We strive to print all obituaries as well but in the event we can’t, they will be published online at www.indyeastend.com. Please try to keep copy under 400 words.
“house parents” are an exception to the Town Code rule that four unrelated adults renting a house do not constitute a “family.” A rule we common folk all have to live by! Six years later, it is rumored that there are 20 or more such houses sprinkled throughout the Town. The School will not divulge exactly how many dormhomes off School grounds house their 250 student boarders. Currently, two identical dormitory-style houses are under construction in Springs. The design of the houses incorporates eight bedrooms each, on three floors; and can accommodate 18 students and two “house parents.” Is perpetuation of this commercial venture -- an LLC made up of non-East Hampton doctors creating an investment by constructing rental houses tailor-made for the Ross School boarding program -- something that is in the interest of the Town, and more specifically of Springs? I think not.
I bet back in 2009, when this convoluted ruling was made, 20 people living in a house as boarders, was not contemplated by the Building Inspector. It was probably far fewer people he was dealing with at the time. The existence of this situation for this long has, according to the website, only encouraged the School to increase the number of boarders, thus increasing income to the School. Where does it all end? Why can’t Ross School build dorms on its own property and actually board its students at the school, as it advertises it does? This charade of what constitutes a “family” needs to come to an end. The Town Board must revisit this unilateral decision made many years ago by someone who is no longer employed by the Town. The public needs to be heard on the issue and the Town must cease turning the Code up-side-down and inside-out to provide a special dispensation to Ross School. BEVERLY BOND

Shagwong’s is still there on Main Street, as it has been for decades. What’s new is the ownership. Longtime proprietor Jim Hewitt sold the place earlier this spring and is off on a cross-country adventure. Happy trails, Jimmy. Speaking of Jimmys. Jim Daunt sold Albatross West to internationally-renown developers who are giving the place a full-scale renovation and hope to open soon.

Back down at the docks, the Harbor Clam Bar has rebranded itself as just “Harbor.” It boasts local, farm to table fare, and promises to run a gamut from restaurant, to outdoor bar and DJ late night party.

Mini-biologists were directed to consider and compare the shorelines on opposite sides as the Peconic steamed deeper into the bay. On one side, the Shinnecock Nation and on the other, high-end houses replete with bulkheads designed to mitigate erosion. Grasses and mussel beds on the Shinnecock side actually do a better job dissipating wave energy, Metzger reported. At the first station, once Captain Andy Brosnan anchored, moon doors in the deck were opened to allow easy access to the water below. Saturday scientists learned how to use a Secchi disc to measure water transparency, learning the water was clear to about seven feet. The appearance of a Lion’s Mane jellyfish derailed the planned lesson

for a bit, as Metzger took advantage of the teachable moment to regale mini biologists with jellyfish factoids – the acid in lemon or lime juice, or even Coke or Pepsi, neutralizes the protein in a jellyfish’s stinging cells. Keeping with the theme of simple equipment to gather lots of info, Metzger next showed the kids how to use a Van Dorn bottle to collect water from depths up to 12,000 feet. A grab that looked similar to the digger on a miniature power shovel was used to collect samples from the bottom. The smelly black sediment elicited squeals from the children. But the squeals were nothing compared to the reaction during the next phase of the day. Trawling was on the agenda and the capture of an American eel prompted highpitched excitement, especially when it escaped Metzger’s grasp and a chase around the deck ensued. Everyone on board had a chance to pet the eel, along with an array of marine life captured by the trawling net. The cabin inside the Peconic accommodates a shallow tank/trough where specimens may be examined. And there were plenty. Biologists for a day got to see and touch winter flounder, a variety of crabs, including a green crab that had just molted and was sporting a soft shell, and male and female crabs that were “hugging,” Metzger explained. Rock crabs, spider crabs, and hermit crabs were also examined. Rain threatened on Saturday morning, but the Peconic made it back to the dock before any big drops began to splash down. Fourth grader Manny Soloway, who was in town visiting his grandparents in Watermill, said catching the eel was his favorite part of the trip. Angie Castenada, an inquisitive student from East Hampton Middle School, had a question and a follow up for every action along the trip, plus a variety of insightful asides to offer, as did most of the well-informed would-be marine biologists. Classically tween, when asked to summarize her feelings about the trip, she said succinctly, “It was fun.” SoFo offers periodic collaborative outings with the college.

114, Wine, Gas & Trustees By Kitty Merrill
Praise the sweet Baby Jesus or whoever it is you call out to when your car is bouncing and jouncing along Route 114 between Stephen Hands Path and Montauk Highway in East Hampton. Assemblyman Fred Thiele announced Monday that his protracted lobbying effort has paid off and the section of road will be repaved later this year. Thiele has been requesting the fix since the summer of 2014. Funding for the project is included in an accelerated $75 million allocation to repair widespread road damage from last winter’s deep frost. Thiele’s initial plea to the state Department of Transportation was met with a rather frosty response. Route 114 wasn’t in bad enough shape to warrant inclusion on the annual projects list; it was listed as in “good to fair” condition. After additional requests by Thiele, along with Senator Ken LaValle, Mayor Paul Rickenbach and East Hampton Town Supervisor Larry Cantwell, the DOT agreed to fill some of the worst potholes. That work was undertaken earlier this spring. Can you tell? Neither can we. Hence the need for a full–on repave. As the legislative session closes for summer break, Thiele and LaValle have been busy. They’ve passed legislation that would deem town trustees municipal corporations, meaning local governments can transfer property to trustees in East Hampton, Southampton, and Southold. The bill is an extension of an earlier measure that was due to expire at the end of July. Because of the legislators efforts, the Southampton Town Trustees were able to acquire a four-acre beach parcel on Fantasy Drive from Suffolk County which overlooks

Reeves and Flanders Bays. Under the ownership of the Trustees, this beach will remain a viable access point for residents and could also serve as a much-needed depository for sand dredged from navigation channels. The bill now awaits the governor’s signature. LaValle and Thiele also passed legislation that exempts small wineries from burdensome tax filing requirements. Farm wineries that produce less than 150,000 gallons per year won’t have to file annual information returns regarding transactions with sales tax vendors. This bill, too, awaits the governor’s John Hancock. The next Thiele measure needs approval from the Senate. His legislation designed to strengthen New York’s gasoline zone pricing law passed the Assembly. If adopted, it will end the unfair practice of Big Oil companies establishing arbitrary prices for gas based on region --- can you say 40 cents a gallon more in The Hamptons compared to other areas of Long Island? “Historically, big oil companies have charged higher prices on the South Fork as well as other areas such as Westchester County without regard to cost,” Thiele said. “The law passed in 2008 was a first step to
www.indyeastend.com
reduce the differential in gas prices based on geography. However, the State Attorney General’s Office has requested amendments to permit
June 24, 2015
him to more vigorously enforce the law.” L a Va l l e i s s p o n s o r i n g a companion bill in the Senate.

Fishkill
Continued from page 17. of Health has been testing water samples at county beaches and facilities to ensure the bathing and waterways are safe for recreational use. The County advises residents and visitors to adhere to all posted signs at facilities. This week the annual Riverhead cardboard boat race was cancelled, with the hopes of an August reschedule. “No question the biggest problem is nitrogen in our waters. We have to get more resources from the federal government -- this is very important,” said Jim Gilmore, head of the New York State Marine Bureau. “We have had several occurrences of fish kills but never of this magnitude. And nitrogen exacerbates the problem. We want the fish in the water, not dying on the beaches. Algal blooms fueled by nitrogen are making it worse.” Since the first fish kill, the Department of Health has conducted extensive testing and repeated water sampling at various waterways, including the South Jamesport Town Beach, Peconic River, Meetinghouse Creek and Reeves Bay. “I applaud the County Executive’s efforts to improve water quality, much work has been done, but much more work is left to do,” said Suffolk County Legislator Al Krupski. “We need to leave the estuary cleaner and healthier than when we found it.” “If you own grass on the riverfront you should not be fertilizing it. Period,” said Town of Riverhead Supervisor Sean Walter. “If you have waterfront property, do not fertilize it. Your moral obligation is to stop using fertilizers. We are doing so much to impair the estuary, and we are not giving fish a fighting chance to survive.” County Executive Bellone and officials also discussed several initiatives and programs designed to mitigate the harmful effects of nitrogen pollution. The initiatives include: • An intermunicipal agreement with the Town of Riverhead to begin a pilot program to test irrigation of county facilities with sanitized wastewater effluent. The county also awarded the town $8 million to upgrade its Advanced Wastewater Treatment Facility, including the construction of a new sewage treatment plant to meet increased standards of nitrogen removal. • The protection of water bodies through the acquisition of open space around vulnerable bodies of

water. The Suffolk County Legislature recently passed a resolution that allows the county to extend an offer to acquire Broad Cove, a 99-acre parcel of land located at the mouth of the Peconic Bay in Riverhead. This cove is considered by the Nature Conservancy to be one of the top 10 Long Island properties in need of protection. • Suffolk County will host an Algal Bloom Symposium next month where leading national experts will convene to discuss and identify ways to monitor and manage harmful algal blooms. Finally, Suffolk County recently released a comprehensive water resources management plan. The 1000-plus page action plan lays out a number of additional programs and initiatives the county will be undertaking in order to stem the tide of nitrogen. County officials also noted that there is no threat to the region’s drink-

ing water supply, and encouraged residents who get their water supply from private wells to have their wells tested every six to 12 months. For more information on the

Hamptons Collegiate Baseball League
Westhampton Moves Into First Place By Rick Murphy
Westhampton didn’t have much of an offense Friday, but the Aviators made their one run count. Playing at home Friday against North Fork (9-8), the Aviators simply could not get to Pat Haynes, who threw six scoreless innings. Luckily, three Westhampton pitchers -Richard Jackson III earned the win – held the Ospreys at bay as well. In the bottom of the seventh third baseman Matt Spruill doubled home Mark Osis which would prove to be the only run of the game. Spruill went 2-3 for the game. Sunday the Aviators swept the Riverhead Tomcats – both games by the score of, you guessed it, 1-0. Colin Brockhouse earned the win in the opener, throwing five innings of two hit ball while striking out four. Jack Piekos earned the save. Michael Toner threw a complete game shutout in the nightcap. Westhampton is in first place with an 11-5 mark. One thing we’ve learned already in this young season is there is no
quit in the Shelter Island Bucks. Take Friday’s game against Southampton – the Breakers enjoyed a 14 run lead going into the ninth inning, but Shelter Island responded with 8 runs before succumbing, 15-9. Shelter Island then proceeded to win two games over the weekend and move into second place. The
Bucks bested the Tomcats Saturday 3-2 behind the pitching of Andy Cohen, who went seven innings giving up only one run and two hits. First basemen Tim Fallon had two hits and two ribbies. Sunday the Bucks took the ferry to Sag Harbor and handed the home team a 9-1 shellacking. Second
THE BODY
baseman Chris Hess had four hits and five ribbies, raising his average to .333. Jack Machonis added two hits and raised his average to .323. Shelter Island is 9-7. The Whalers dropped into third place with an 8-7 mark, in a virtual tie with the Ospreys. Montauk is 7-8, Riverhead 6-10 and Southampton 6-11.

Boat Insurance – Friend or Foe? An Update
The boating season is now fully open, even if the weather hasn’t been particularly conducive! However, one thing you ought to do before getting underway is making sure your insurance is in place.
To File Or Not To File Most of us are familiar with insurance from owning a car. I don’t know about you but the fear of “assigned risk” and massive spikes in the cost of annual insurance premiums keeps me from putting in for anything on my car unless an asteroid landed on it and totaled the car. How does that translate into boat insurance and, unlike your car where it is mandated by state law that you must have it, do I need it? As noted via a prior column, most boats that do sink do so right in their slip or out on their moorings. Insurance premiums for such losses can run from a couple of hundred dollars a year to thousands, depending of course on the value of the boat and the electronic package it carries. It makes sense, to me at least, to protect that open-bow 19 foot Seahunt with the 150hp Merc on her transom,
(worth $20K when you bought her) for a couple of hundred dollars a year, just in case. Also, as you read in a prior column on groundings, you just might need towing and insurance covers that for a relatively small amount – say $100 a year. Why protect that bow rider if you really take great care to ensure that all the through hulls are supple, that the battery is well maintained and all the scuppers are kept clean? Well, if you can assure yourself of such caring attention, maybe it is worth booking the bet. Put the $250 you would have spent in a coffee can and save it year after year. You won’t get to $20,000 in your life time but it wouldn’t be the worst thing to take $1,000 out of that coffee can one day and buy a new GPS with a big color screen for the boat. (Did I say that you and the boat are getting older and that small black-and-white GPS is going to be impossible to see one day?) But, from a personal experience, I had a neighbor’s boat break off its mooring during the nearly monthlong nor’easter we had in October of 2005 and it sent down on my very well
REAL ESTATE
ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT
maintained 25’ Chris Craft launch. She sank in seconds on her mooring. It took four days for the storm to abate enough for my commercial tower to be able to raise her. Insurance company didn’t need too much convincing that I wasn’t derelict in maintaining the boat. It also helped that I told the truth on the application when I said it would be on a mooring and not fast to a dock at a marina. But what if it had just sunk on her mooring because the scuppers got clogged with leaves and, eventually, she filled with water from rain and sank as the battery drained down to nothing? BTW, if doesn’t have to rain much. Just enough to have the boat sit lower in the water than she was designed for. Then, wind-driven wave action can ship some water aboard, causing your pride and joy to sit even lower! A vicious cycle, leading to a sinking. Any insurance company is going to look at such facts and consider assigning some blame to you. Translation? Less than full book value. How about if the wire running from the battery to the bilge pump was found to have been chafed? Not enough to short out, which you might catch a number of ways (such as the circuit breaker tripping) but enough to reduce the juice driving the 1,000gph bilge pump to a trickle. When the insurance company’s surveyor finds that, they will assign some amount of blame to you for not properly maintaining
IN THE NEWS
your boat. Translation? Less than full book value. Look, if you deal with the major insurance carriers, their staffs are generally well-trained and they are not out to cheat you. But they aren’t Santa Claus either. If the facts are friendly, you will get what you paid for and you will get it with a smile. When my 25 foot was sunk, for the first 24 hours I was walking around like I had lost a puppy or worse. Then, I said to myself, “It is time for a new boat. Thank God this is only a money issue.” And the insurance company was fast with the settlement, with a smile. However, if you haven’t been giving your maritime baby the caring she needs, or ensuring that she is getting it from the dock master, you will find that the kindly insurance adjuster can be as cold as a January arctic blast across Moriches Bay. They are neither your friend nor your foe. They are your insurance company. Give your vessel good care and attention. Let the facts always be friendly. But check out whether you are covered for environmental damages like fuel spills associated with the sinking. BTW, if you are interested in being part of USCG Forces, email me at JoinUSCGAux@ aol.com or go directly to the D1SR Human Resources Department, which is in charge of new members matters, at DSO-HR and we will help you “get in this thing . . .”
