  • 2009 MTA Annual Performance Review
    PERMANENT CITIZENS ADVISORY COMMITTEE TO THE MTA REPRESENTING MTA RIDERS SINCE 1981 2009 Annual Performance Review of The MTA and Its Operating Agencies Introduction The PCAC’s 2009 Performance Review marks our third report summarizing the accomplishments and continuing challenges of the MTA and its operating agencies. This report addresses a number of broad themes such as leadership, transparency, organizational structure, service performance, communication, and accessibility. These themes relate to the ability of the MTA and its operating agencies to deliver service effectively to the riders that we represent. While PCAC is vitally concerned about the critical issue of the almost $800 million operating funding shortfall from Albany, which is part of ongoing dialogues that the PCAC and its Councils maintain with public officials and the MTA operating agencies, this larger issue is outside the scope of this report. The PCAC is encouraged by the MTA leadership’s initial steps to make the overall organization more effective and efficient, and we intend our report to complement this effort. At the same time we are well aware that internal efficiencies are not enough to prevent serious damage to the system due to state funding shortfalls.1 The PCAC recognizes that some of the issues raised in the report are the subject of ongoing work by the MTA and its agencies, the body of this document addresses issues pertaining to the 2009 calendar year. Several related developments from 2010 are included as footnotes to the Review. The PCAC and its Councils are not legislatively mandated to address the operations of MTA Bridges and Tunnels or MTA Long Island Bus; consequently they are not addressed in this document.

  • Historic and Cultural Resources
    Chapter 10: Historic and Cultural Resources 10-1 INTRODUCTION This chapter identifies cultural resources (including architectural and archaeological resources) in the area of potential effect for the project, probable impacts on such resources, avoidance and minimization of harm to such resources, and coordination with appropriate agencies and stakeholders. The potential effects of both project construction and project operation on cultural resources are considered in this chapter. Construction impacts are also discussed in Chapter 18, “Construction Impacts.” The analysis in this Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) was prepared in accordance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 (NHPA), as implemented by federal regulations appearing in 36 CFR § 800, in consultation with the New York State Historic Preservation Officer (SHPO) of the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation (OPRHP), the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation, and other consulting parties. It was also prepared in accordance with Section 4(f) of the Department of Transportation Act of 1966 (see Chapter 23, “Final Section 4(f) Evaluation”). 10-2 REGULATORY AND GUIDANCE CONTEXT 10-2-1 NATIONAL HISTORIC PRESERVATION ACT (SECTION 106) Section 106 of NHPA mandates that federal agencies consider the effects of their actions on any properties listed on or determined eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places (NR) and afford the federal Advisory Council on Historic Preservation (ACHP) a reasonable opportunity to comment on such undertakings. Section 101(d)(6)(B) of the NHPA requires the lead federal agency to consult with any Indian tribe that attaches religious and cultural significance to historic properties that may be affected by the undertaking.

  • 1 Stratigraphy Across the Hudson River, Tarrytown – Nyack
    Stratigraphy Across the Hudson River, Tarrytown – Nyack, NY Updated From Borings for the New NY Bridge Replacing the Tappan Zee Cheryl J. Moss, Mueser Rutledge Consulting Engineers, 14 Penn Plaza, New York, NY 10122 ([email protected]) Introduction In 2002, 2006 and 2012 a total of 28 land and 85 water borings under the inspection of MRCE were made in and along the Hudson River to produce geotechnical data reports leading to the construction of the New NY Bridge to replace the Tappan Zee Bridge. The investigation for the construction of the original Tappan Zee Bridge identified the general stratigraphy and revealed that bedrock drops to around elevation –740’ near the western edge of the river. The new borings allow a much better definition of the upper glacial and estuarine strata present at the Tarrytown-Nyack section of the river, which is roughly 2.8 miles wide. The new borings did not go deep enough to explain why the western rock is cut so deep, or what sediments are present in the channel directly above the rock. Background Geology Bedrock below the east side of the Tappan Zee Bridge is the Proterozoic Fordham Gneiss. Above it to the west is the Triassic Brunswick Formation, undivided, part of the Newark Supergroup (Figure 1).
