More Than a Million Pounds of Smelly Fish Wash Up Near One of Wealthiest Streets in Hamptons After fish kill, 1.4 million pounds of dead fish washed up; wealthy residents can't turn on heat because smell is so bad, some say. SOUTHAMPTON, NY — The after effects of a massive fish kill in the Shinnecock continue to pile up in the Hamptons — and most recently, more than a million pounds of smelly bunker have washed up near Meadow Lane, one of the wealthiest areas in Southampton.

Cleanup efforts are underway, both Southampton Town Supervisor Jay Schneiderman and Southampton Village Mayor Mark Epley said Monday, with Will Caldwell of C Well Fish leading the efforts.

"We removed 12 tons of fish today," Epley said Monday. "The town hired the same company, Will Caldwell, to remove the fish."

The village, Epley said, is working to get a permit from the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation to go into the marsh and collect the dead bunker.

Something rotten in Southampton

But the deluge of dead fish has meant something's rotten in the Village of Southampton.

"Unfortunately the locks were opened after the fish died and the village along Meadow Lane is impacted greatly. The smell is bad. I have received complaints. Fortunately this happened now not in the middle of the summer," Epley said. Schneiderman said Caldwell and his crew removed approximately 57,000 pounds, or 28.5 tons of "dead, smelly fish from Shinnecock Bay beaches in three days over the weekend. That's a lot of fish."

Southampton Town will take the fish into its facility, where it will become fertilizer; the town will also take the village's bunker and charge no tipping fees, Schneiderman said.

"Our facility is capable of taking in another hundred yards of material. We will end up with excellent compost next year," the supervisor said.
