  • Distribution of Ddt, Chlordane, and Total Pcb's in Bed Sediments in the Hudson River Basin
    NYES&E, Vol. 3, No. 1, Spring 1997 DISTRIBUTION OF DDT, CHLORDANE, AND TOTAL PCB'S IN BED SEDIMENTS IN THE HUDSON RIVER BASIN Patrick J. Phillips1, Karen Riva-Murray1, Hannah M. Hollister2, and Elizabeth A. Flanary1. 1U.S. Geological Survey, 425 Jordan Road, Troy NY 12180. 2Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences, Troy NY 12180. Abstract Data from streambed-sediment samples collected from 45 sites in the Hudson River Basin and analyzed for organochlorine compounds indicate that residues of DDT, chlordane, and PCB's can be detected even though use of these compounds has been banned for 10 or more years. Previous studies indicate that DDT and chlordane were widely used in a variety of land use settings in the basin, whereas PCB's were introduced into Hudson and Mohawk Rivers mostly as point discharges at a few locations. Detection limits for DDT and chlordane residues in this study were generally 1 µg/kg, and that for total PCB's was 50 µg/kg. Some form of DDT was detected in more than 60 percent of the samples, and some form of chlordane was found in about 30 percent; PCB's were found in about 33 percent of the samples. Median concentrations for p,p’- DDE (the DDT residue with the highest concentration) were highest in samples from sites representing urban areas (median concentration 5.3 µg/kg) and lower in samples from sites in large watersheds (1.25 µg/kg) and at sites in nonurban watersheds. (Urban watershed were defined as those with a population density of more than 60/km2; nonurban watersheds as those with a population density of less than 60/km2, and large watersheds as those encompassing more than 1,300 km2.

  • 2.3 Physical Geography of the Schoharie Watershed
    2.3 Physical Geography of the Schoharie Watershed Physical geography encompasses the physical elements and processes that comprise the earth's surface features and associated processes. These processes include: energy, air, water, weather, climate, landforms, soils, animals, plants, and the Earth itself. The study of physical geography attempts to explain the geographic patterns of climate, vegetation, soils, hydrology, and landforms, and the physical environments that result from Hunter (Colonel's Chair) Mountain with the East Kill/Batavia Kill valley divide in background. their interactions. The Schoharie watershed is located in the Appalachian Plateau physiographic province (Figure 2.3.1). The erosional characteristics of the sedimentary rock formations of the Appalachian Mountains are responsible for the characteristic valley and ridge topography of the Catskills. Durable layers of sandstone and conglomerate form ridges and less resistant limestone and shale underlie the Schoharie valley as it winds its way to the Mohawk River. During the height of glaciations, the Schoharie watershed was covered by an ice sheet up to a mile thick. Upon retreat, these ice sheets left a layer of unsorted and unconsolidated glacial debris, glacial till, ranging from clay particles to huge boulders. Following the retreat of the ice sheet, the landscape was covered with glacial tills and bedrock and was wiped clean of plants and animals, leaving a clean slate for the migration and colonization of the modern plant and animal communities. Today, the Schoharie watershed lies within the Northeastern Highlands ecoregion. This ecoregion is characterized by nutrient poor soils blanketed by northern hardwood and spruce fir forests. Figure 2.3.1.

Surveys can assist municipalities to take a more comprehensive approach in planning for and around identified resources. Such planning might include considerations for planning ordinances in areas with cultural resources, planning for economic development, listing in the National Register of Historic Places, local historic district designations, or specific preservation projects.

  • A Wine Lover's Guide to the Catskills
    A Wine Lover’s Guide to the Catskills BY LAUREN MOWERY The Catskill Mountains region, two hours north of New York City and west of the Hudson River, has long been a getaway for urban dwellers. It inspired landscape painters from the Hudson River School artists in the mid-1800s, and as the 20th century dawned, it became a refuge from crowded New York City. The sanitariums later gave rise to lavish resorts that became known as the “Borscht Belt.” Now, young folks and families show up for a vacation and decide to stay for the quality of life. People see opportunity in working-class and post-hippie enclaves like Woodstock. This has helped to spark fresh ideas in food, hospitality and wine. Some of the area’s best eating and drinking occurs at a new breed of design-friendly motels, hotels and inns set along dark country roads nestled in small towns. Here’s an overview of where to drink wine, beer and cider around the Catskills. The DeBruce in Livingston Manor Western/Southern Catskills Livingston Manor is the birthplace of American y-shing. Despite its popularity with outdoor sports fans, the Upper Delaware Valley area of the Catskills suffered decades of economic decay. Today, the area is in the midst of a mini-boom in tourism, thanks in part to Kirsten Harlow Foster and her husband, Sims Foster, co-founders of Foster Supply Hospitality. With roots in Livingston, they left New York City to reimagine historic buildings as inns and restaurants. The couple’s current portfolio is comprised of The Arnold House and The DeBruce in Livingston Manor, The North Branch Inn in North Branch and Nine River Road in Callicoon.
