Blydenburgh County Park owned by Suffolk County Parks and Recreation Department. Kings Park Psychiatric Center owned by State of New York. Blydenburgh County Park is mainly wooded with an L-shaped shallow pond. All means available should be utilized, including fencing, beach closures, posting, beach warden patrols and public education. In those colonies where predation is a significant problem, whether from pets, feral animals or problem native species such as foxes, raccoons, or gulls, removal programs should be undertaken.
Current ordinances prohibit dogs on beaches during nesting season and prohibit use of ATVs.
Predator exclosures are constructed around Piping Plover nests and string fencing is installed around Piping Plover and Least Tern nesting areas to minimize human disturbance. Boat landing is prohibited during the nesting season on Young's Island where most Common Terns nest. These regulations must continue to be enforced. Certain upland portions of the area are subject to increasing pressure for commercial and residential development. New York State has declared the Kings Park Psychiatric Center to be surplus and is seeking to sell the property for development.
