- TREE PROTECTION: The following note shall be placed on the Subdivision Plan:
The Tree Protection and Preservation Guidelines adopted pursuant to Section 21-24 of the Land Development Regulations of the Town of Orangetown will be implemented in order to protect and preserve both individual specimen trees and buffer area with many trees. Steps that will be taken to reserve and protect existing trees to remain are as follows:
- No construction equipment shall be parked under the tree canopy.
- There will be no excavation or stockpiling of earth underneath the trees.
- Trees designated to be preserved shall be marked conspicuously on all sides at a 5 to 10 foot height.
- The Tree Protection Zone for trees designated to be preserved will be established by one of the following methods:
– One (1) foot radius from trunk per inch DBH
– Drip line of the Tree Canopy. The method chosen should be based on providing the maximum protection zone possible. A barrier of snow fence or equal is to be placed and maintained one yard beyond the established tree protection zone. If it is agreed that the tree protection zone of a selected tree must be violated, one of the following methods must be employed to mitigate the impact:
– Light to Heavy Impacts – Minimum of eight inches of wood chips installed in the area to be protected. Chips shall be removed upon completion of work.
– Light Impacts Only – Installation of ¾ inch of plywood or boards, or equal over the area to be protected.
The builder or its agent may not change grade within the tree protection zone of a preserved tree unless such grade change has received final approval from the Planning Board. If the grade level is to be changed more than six (6) inches, trees designated to be preserved shall be welled and/or preserved in a raised bed, with the tree well a radius of three (3) feet larger than the tree canopy.
- All landscaping shown on the site plans shall be maintained in a vigorous growing condition throughout the duration of the use of this site. Any plants not so maintained shall be replaced with new plants at the beginning of the next immediately following growing season.
- Prior to the commencement of any site work, including the removal of trees, the applicant shall install the soil erosion and sedimentation control as required by the Planning Board. Prior to the authorization to proceed with any phase of the site work, the Town of Orangetown Department of Environmental Management and Engineering (DEME) shall inspect the installation of all required soil erosion and sedimentation control measures. The applicant shall contact DEME at least 48 hours in advance for an inspection.

- The new proposed driveway on the West side of the building that enters onto the existing paved “easement” road shall be paved, not gravel.
- Soil erosion and sediment control plans and details shall be submitted to DEME for review and approval. These shall be designed in accordance with the New York State Standards and Specifications for Erosion and Sediment Control (Blue Book), November, 2016 version. Also, NYSDEC standard symbols shall be used for the SESC plan.
- While DEME would prefer that only the SESC measures being contemplated and shown on the drawings be included in the SWPPP, the applicant’s engineer’s request to leave in additional details (found in Appendix B) is acceptable provided these additional details are described on both section 3.1.4 and 3.1.5. In keeping with the explanation presented, it will make it easier for the qualified inspector and the contractor to know what the products are and how they are to be maintained if and when they are required. Also, items described in sections 3.1.4 and 3.1.5 MUST have their corresponding “Blue Book” details added to Appendix B, for example: sedimentation basins.
- The storm drain profiles are labeled with letters, however the plans and the facilities themselves on the profiles are numbered. This shall be corrected.
- Drawing #2 of 14 and the profile for the drainage run on drawing #11 of 14, has drainage manhole 17A labeled as a catch basin, this shall be corrected. Also, CB 17B is not labeled on the profile, this too shall be corrected.
- CB 19A and DM 19B (mislabeled on drawing #2 of 14 as a CB) are not labeled on the profile on drawing #11 of 14. Also, Profiles for CB 20 to CB 24, CB 26A to FES 26C and CB A1 to FES B1 are missing from the drawings. These shall be added to the drawings.
- The profile for FES1 to existing CB and CB4 to CB9, drawing #10 of 14, shall show the sanitary building connection crossing.
- The revised design calls for sumps in catch basins as a WQ treatment to the drainage lines not entering the proposed underground Stormtech chambers, however, this is NOT an approved technique. As previously suggested, the applicant’s engineer shall design an approved technique for all drainage lines not entering the Stormtech system. One approved technique would be to use the same “first defender” manholes prior to the stormwater existing the piping systems (i.e. near the ends of the individual piping runs.)
