The plans are the sane. The structure has been 1n existence since the late 1 's, or early 19 's. There are several wetland resource areas, coastal flood zone (one-half of the property); a type three coastal bank; salt marsh which at the ramp and float is a 14 foot ribbon; seaward of the salt marsh is land under the ocean. It is a good shellfish area. Originally, they were proposing no changes in structure. The float is ' x 12", 965 s.f. and the ramp is 161 x 3-1/2' , 56 s.f.
