The standard for making a finding of consistency with the LWRP shall be that the responsible agency does not find a conflict between the proposed action and the policy standards of the LWRP. A finding of nonconsistency shall identify the policy standards of the LWRP with which the proposed action is in conflict. The proposed action shall be consistent with the following LWRP policy standards, which are drawn from and further explained in Section III of the LWRP:
A. 
Facilitate the siting of water-dependent uses in a manner compatible with the conservation and preservation of Stony Brook Harbor as an unspoiled embayment and habitat area (Policies 2 and 2A).
B. 
Encourage the location of development in areas where public services or facilities are adequate, except where such development has special functional requirements or other characteristics which necessitate its location in other areas and limit development to areas where the topography, geology and other environmental conditions are suitable for and are able to accommodate development without interference with or damage to groundwater recharge needs, flood control, wetlands, habitats, the preservation of Stony Brook Harbor or other environmental factors (Policy 5).
C. 
Expedite permit procedures in order to facilitate the siting of development activities at suitable locations (Policy 6).
D. 
Protect, preserve and restore the coastal fish and wildlife habitats of Stony Brook Harbor and reclaim habitat losses by creating new habitat (Policies 7, 7A and 7D).
E. 
Protect fish and wildlife resources in the coastal area from the introduction of hazardous wastes and other pollutants (Policy 8).
F. 
Expand recreational use of fish and wildlife resources in a manner which ensures the protection of renewable fish and wildlife resources and considers other activities dependent on them (Policies 9 and 9A).
G. 
Minimize damage to property caused by flooding and erosion hazards and prohibit residential construction in coastal high-hazard areas (Policies 11 and 11A).
H. 
Minimize damage to natural resources and property by protecting natural protective features (Policy 12).
I. 
Undertake construction or reconstruction of erosion protection structures only if they have a reasonable probability of controlling erosion for at least 30 years and are demonstrated to be necessary (Policies 13 and 13A).
J. 
Undertake activities and development in such a manner that there will be no measurable increases in erosion or flooding (Policy 14).
K. 
Prohibit mining and excavation in the coastal waters of the village and prohibit dredging in such waters which significantly interferes with the natural processes which supply beach materials to land adjacent to such waters (Policies 15 and 15A).
L. 
Employ public funds for erosion protective structures only where necessary to protect human life and only where the public benefits outweigh the long-term costs, including the potential for increasing erosion and adverse effects on natural protective features (Policy 16).
M. 
Wherever possible, use nonstructural measures to minimize damage to natural resources and property from flooding and erosion (Policy 17).
N. 
Safeguard vital economic, social and environmental interests of the state and its citizens; proposed major actions must give full consideration to those interests and to the safeguards the state has established to protect valuable coastal resource areas (Policy 18).
O. 
Protect, maintain and increase access to public water-related recreation in accordance with reasonably anticipated needs and the protection of natural and historic resources and encourage and facilitate access for passive recreation in a manner which minimizes disturbance of habitats (Policies 19 and 19A).
P. 
Provide public access to the publicly owned foreshore and lands immediately adjacent to the foreshore or the water's edge that are publicly owned in a manner compatible with adjoining uses and retain such lands in public ownership (Policy 20).
Q. 
Encourage and facilitate water-dependent and water-enhanced recreation and give priority to such uses over non-water-dependent uses along the coast, consistent with the preservation and enhancement of other coastal resources (Policy 21).
R. 
Limit development of new recreation areas to passive water-related recreation as a multiple use for development located adjacent to the shore (Policy 22).
S. 
Protect, enhance and restore structures, districts, areas or sites that are of significance in the history, architecture, archaeology or culture of the state, the village or the nation (Policy 23).
T. 
Protect, restore or enhance natural and man-made scenic resources of Stony Brook Harbor, the Mill Pond and the village roads (Policy 25).
U. 
Conserve and protect agricultural lands (Policy 26).
V. 
Maintain and retain the SA water quality classification of Stony Brook Harbor and the uses assigned to such classification (Policy 31).
W. 
Utilize best management practices and nonstructural approaches to ensure the control of runoff to coastal waters (Policy 33).
X. 
Limit the discharge of waste materials into coastal waters from vessels (Policy 34).
Y. 
Undertake dredging and dredge spoil disposal in a manner which exceeds state dredging permit requirements and protects significant fish and wildlife habitats, scenic resources, natural protective features and important agricultural lands and wetlands; base such activities upon detailed hydraulic and environmental analysis; and undertake spoil disposal in a manner which does not introduce or reintroduce dredged material into Stony Brook Harbor (Policy 35).
Z. 
Prohibit the manufacture, storage or shipment of petroleum and hazardous wastes in the village to prevent or minimize spills into coastal waters (Policy 36).
AA. 
Utilize best management practices to minimize the nonpoint discharge of excess nutrients and organic and eroded soils into coastal waters (Policy 37).
BB. 
Conserve and protect surface water and groundwater supplies by retaining large minimum lot sizes; and prohibit septic systems within 150 feet of a water body or where seasonal high water tables are less than three feet deep (Policy 38).
CC. 
Prohibit the handling, storage, treatment and disposal of solid and hazardous wastes within the village coastal area (Policy 39).
DD. 
Preserve and protect tidal and freshwater wetlands and the benefits derived from them (Policies 44, 44A, 44B and 4C).
