  • The Parking Committee's Report on Public Shoreline Access and Rights
    The Parking Committee’s Report on Public Shoreline Access and Rights-of-Way in Jamestown April 7, 1999 Prepared by committee members: Lisa Bryer Claudette Cotter Darcy Magratten Pat Bolger It is not the intent of this study to comment on the status of private versus public ownership on any rights-of-way (ROW). Rather, this study endeavors to compile a list of all CRMC-designated rights-of-way, identified potential ROWs, and public shoreline access points in Jamestown for the purpose of description, review and recommendations to the Town Council for future planning purposes. SIZE, OWNERSHIP & DESCRIPTION: In this report, we have relied upon the work of Rebecca Carlisle, Planning Office intern in the summer of 1992 (a report she compiled which was later forwarded to CRMC and has become the basis of identifying ROWs in Jamestown), the CRMC progress report as of June 1998, reference to the Coastal Resource Center’s publication "Public Access to the Rhode Island Coast", survey maps drawn by Robert Courneyor as part of Rebecca Carlisle’s report, Jamestown Planning Offices plat maps, Jamestown GIS material and recent photographs. REVIEW: Each member of the subcommittee visited, walked, noted current conditions, discussed each site, and also reviewed prior recommendations where applicable. The review took into consideration how accessible each site was–both by car and foot, the access & grade to the shoreline, the proximity of neighbors, the availability of parking, the availability of trash receptacles and other recreational facilities. RECOMMENDATIONS: A rating system of 1 to 3 was used to prioritize each site. Number 1 sites should be fully supported and maintained with existing parking and facilities.

    250-RICR-100-00-1 TITLE 250 – DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT CHAPTER 100 – PARKS AND RECREATION SUBCHAPTER 00 – N/A PART 1 – Park and Management Area Rules and Regulations 1.1 Purpose The purpose of these Rules and Regulations is for the control, custody, governance, and use of state Management Areas, State Parks, and other areas operated and maintained by the Divisions of Fish and Wildlife, Parks and Recreation, and Forest Environment within the Department of Environmental Management ("RIDEM"). 1.2 Authority These Rules and Regulations are promulgated pursuant to R.I. Gen. Laws §§ 20- 1-2, 20-1-4, and 20-1-8, and R.I. Gen. Laws Chapters 42-17.1, 42-17.6, 42- 17.10, 20-18, 20-15, 32-2 and 32-3 and in accordance with R.I. Gen. Laws Chapter 42-35, the Administrative Procedures Act. 1.3 Administrative Findings These Rules and Regulations were initially promulgated in order to address the often confusing and sometimes conflicting situation that was created due to the fact that numerous regulations administrated by several different divisions had authority over certain aspects of the RIDEM’s Parks and Management Areas. This current amendment is an effort to make those Rules and Regulations more effective and user friendly. 1.4 Application The terms and provisions of these Rules and Regulations shall be liberally construed to permit the RIDEM to effectuate the purposes of state law, goals, and policies. 1.5 Severability If any provision of these Rules and Regulations or application thereof to any person or circumstances, is held invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the validity of the remainder of the Rules and Regulations shall not be affected thereby.

  • Washington–Rochambeau Revolutionary Route
    Resource Study & Environmental Assessment WASHINGTON–ROCHAMBEAU REVOLUTIONARY ROUTE Northeast and National Capital Regions National Park Service—U.S. Department of the Interior October 2006 ABOUT THIS DOCUMENT This document is the Resource Study and Environmental Assessment (study/EA) for the Washington-Rochambeau Revolutionary Route. It describes the National Park Service’s preferred approach to preserving and interpreting route resources and one other alternative. The evaluation of potential environmental impacts that may result from imple- mentation of these alternatives is integrated in this document. This study/EA is available for public review for a period of 30 days. During the review period, the National Park Service is accepting comments from interested parties via the Planning, Environment and Public Comment website http://parkplanning.nps.gov/, at public meetings which may be held, and at the address below. At the end of the re- view period, the National Park Service will carefully review all comments and determine whether any changes should be made to the report. No sooner than thirty (30) days from the end of the review period, the National Park Service will prepare and publish a finding of no significant impact (FONSI) to explain which alternative has been selected, and why it will not have any significant environmental impacts. A summary of responses to public comments will be prepared. Factual corrections or additional material submitted by commentators that do not affect the alternative may be incorporated in errata sheets and attached to the study/EA. The study/EA and FONSI will be transmitted to the Secretary of the Interior who will make a recommendation to Congress.
