NY 10. Long Pond. Acreage: 45. 



Location: Suffolk County; Sag Harbor Quadrangle; 3 miles N of Bridgehamp- 

 ton. 



Description: This is a shallow pond with a sandy bottom, and an abundance and 

 variety of submerged and emergent vegetation. The pond has a substantial 

 fringe of grass around the edge and is surrounded by oak woods. This pond is 

 very suitable waterfowl habitat and several muskrat houses are present. Little 

 Long Pond (25 acres), though not as attractive as Long Pond, is still unspoiled 

 and could be incorporated in this area. 



Encroachments: There are several houses on Sagg Road and further develop- 

 ment is taking place in this area. Two houses on Toppings Path are visible from 

 the pond as well as a power line south of the pond. There are several little-used 

 access roads around the pond. 



Ownership: The town of Southampton owns the bottom of the pond, while the 

 surrounding upland has several private owners.
