BEACH DRIVING INSTRUCTIONSThe ONLY area approved for driving is from MHW to the seaward toe of the dune, or to the fence line established for nesting birds. The beaches and dunes form a vital barrier of defense against the onslaught of ocean waves. These sands absorb and dissipate the tremendous force of the waves, yet this barrier is very fragile. The dune system is held in place by the beach grass and its delicate root system. Any damage to the root system (by foot or vehicular traffic) will weaken and destabilize the dune causing it to be blown away (dune blowout). STAY OFF THE DUNES.

Along the ocean beaches, the most common wildlife you will encounter are nesting shorebirds. These include the piping plover and least terns, both of which are protected species. These birds are easily disturbed by noise and motion by pedestrians and motor vehicles. Please be aware that Plover and Tern chicks do not always stay within fences areas. Chicks can get trapped in tire ruts, so please avoid, as much as possible, driving past protected areas from March 15 to September 15. It is a violation of the Southampton Trustees’ rules and regulations to disturb these birds and this action is punishable by a fine of $350. STAY AWAY FROM NESTING BIRDS.

In order to achieve this compatibility, it is unlawful for any person to drive or operate a motor vehicle on the bay beach areas, or the ocean beach areas, without a valid Southampton Trustees Resident ID’s. Furthermore, it is also unlawful for any person to operate a motor vehicle on these beaches between the Friday preceding Memorial Day and the 15th day of September, between 9:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. Each vehicle that is driven on the beach must have onboard, a valid Southampton Trustees beach driving Resident ID’s affixed to the driver’s side front bumper, a jack and jack board, a tow chain or rope, an air pressure gauge and tire inflation device, and a shovel. Vehicles must use approved vehicle access ramps, and must not exceed 10 MPH.

WANT TO SUPPORT ATLANTIC MARINE CONSERVATION SOCIETY ON THE BEACH? CONDUCT A BEACH CLEANUP OF YOUR OWN!Marine debris is a huge problem. Our biologists, interns, and volunteers conduct cleanups all over Long Island to not only remove trash from the beach, protecting marine animals from being sick, injured, or killed, but the data we collect also helps us to understand what the larger problems are and how we can mitigate them. During each beach cleanup we document the various items we pick up, weight, location, and more as part of our research efforts. You can do this too!

ORGANIZE A CLEANUP OF YOUR OWNPrint out one of our data collection sheets to take with you on the beach. Whether you organize a cleanup of your own or simply go for a walk, every bit picked up helps!amseas.org/enter-a-beach-cleanup

DID YOU SEE A WHALE, DOLPHIN, PORPOISE, OR SEA TURTLE? LET US KNOW!Atlantic Marine Conservation Society is the lead large whale response organization in New York State, responding to these animals, as well as deceased marine animals and entangled sea turtles. Reporting marine mammal and sea turtle sightings help us to learn more about local populations and how to help them in the future. Report a sighting online at amseas.org/report-a-sighting. The more information you can provide, the better!

SEND PHOTOS AND VIDEO TO: sightings@amseas.org

RFMRP responds to live stranded dolphins, porpoises, seals, and sea turtles.
