  • Appendices Section
    APPENDIX 1. A Selection of Biodiversity Conservation Agencies & Programs A variety of state agencies and programs, in addition to the NY Natural Heritage Program, partner with OPRHP on biodiversity conservation and planning. This appendix also describes a variety of statewide and regional biodiversity conservation efforts that complement OPRHP’s work. NYS BIODIVERSITY RESEARCH INSTITUTE The New York State Biodiversity Research Institute is a state-chartered organization based in the New York State Museum who promotes the understanding and conservation of New York’s biological diversity. They administer a broad range of research, education, and information transfer programs, and oversee a competitive grants program for projects that further biodiversity stewardship and research. In 1996, the Biodiversity Research Institute approved funding for the Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation to undertake an ambitious inventory of its lands for rare species, rare natural communities, and the state’s best examples of common communities. The majority of inventory in state parks occurred over a five-year period, beginning in 1998 and concluding in the spring of 2003. Funding was also approved for a sixth year, which included all newly acquired state parks and several state parks that required additional attention beyond the initial inventory. Telephone: (518) 486-4845 Website: www.nysm.nysed.gov/bri/ NYS DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION The Department of Environmental Conservation’s (DEC) biodiversity conservation efforts are handled by a variety of offices with the department. Of particular note for this project are the NY Natural Heritage Program, Endangered Species Unit, and Nongame Unit (all of which are in the Division of Fish, Wildlife, & Marine Resources), and the Division of Lands & Forests.

With implementation of the Greylock Glen Resort Project and other efforts, Adams intends to become the "recreational hub of the Berkshires." It is our understanding that the Town of Adams will issue a request for proposal to developers and operators with the goal of completing the contracting and site planning process for operations to begin in May of 2018. While the intent is to have a private developer and operator, the Town may also evaluate the potential of the facility as a municipal facility. Our analysis on the proposed campground included extensive market-based research on the supply and demand for campground facilities on a local and regional basis. Based upon the data available, along with our own analyses, opinions, and conclusions, we have prepared an opinion on the site’s suitability as a campground and have prepared projections of occupancy, average rate, and cash flow from operations.

    National Park Service Land and Water Conservation Fund land and water conservation fund State Assistance Program 2006 Annual Report National Program Goals Reflecting the goals of the LWCF Act, the goals of the Land and Water Conservation Fund State Assistance Program are: 1. Meet state and locally identified public outdoor recreation resources needs to strengthen the health and vitality of the American People. 2. Increase the number of protected state and local outdoor recreation resources and ensure their availability for public use in perpetuity. 3. Encourage sound planning and long-term partnerships to expand the quantity and ensure the quality of needed state and local outdoor recreation resources. building new parks I am pleased to share this summary of the Land and Water Conservation Fund’s State Assistance Program for Fiscal Year 2006. Our program results in 2006 continue to reflect a high level of achievement in providing millions of Americans with the opportunity to lead physically active and healthy lives. In partnership with states and communities, we continue to support, enhance and create public parks for the benefit and use of all. And we continue because we know there is still more work to be done: across the country the current demand for new outdoor recreation facilities and parkland acquisition at the state and local level remains as strong as ever. In 2006, four-fifths of the states reported an unmet funding need exceeding 80%. I am proud of the hard work by the National Park Service Land and Water Conservation Fund team. They do a magnifi- cent job, and take seriously their role in protecting in perpetuity the integrity and recreational value of all state and local parks, lakes, trails, beaches, and conservation lands assisted by the Fund.
