Bovina Township Delaware County New York Burial Data Compiled from the Papers of David F. Hoy & Howard F. Davidson The
BOVINA TOWNSHIP DELAWARE COUNTY NEW YORK BURIAL DATA COMPILED FROM THE PAPERS OF DAVID F. HOY & HOWARD F. DAVIDSON & THE BOVINA CEMETERY ASSOCIATION Prepared By The Davidson Brothers: Edwin, Allan, Richard 01 February 2004 Up-dated September 13, 2015 M/S Word – Bovina Cemeteries Intro Page 1 09/27/15 This data has been transcribed with the utmost care - however no guarantee of accuracy is given. This information has been gleaned from various tombstone readings, Bovina New UP interment records (from 1910), 1855 and 1905 Bovina Census and the genealogy notes from the sources provided in “Early Bovina Families & their Descendants”. A few individuals appear to be buried in two locations. When David F. Hoy did his readings (1914-1918) I am certain that the tombstones were there. Some families moved their loved ones to the new cemetery before the Cemetery Association incorporated (1910) and no known record of the transfer exists, but the tombstones were read in the Bovina New UP Cemetery also. Please check this information against your other sources. We dedicate this database to the memory of our brother Allan Lloyd Davidson - 23 Oct 1925 – 10 Feb 2004 GPS Coordinates of Bovina Burial Sites M/S Word – Bovina Cemeteries Intro Page 2 09/27/15 * = Vacated [UPDATED Using Google Earth using Degrees-Minutes-Seconds] Elevation 1 - ARCHIBALD CEMETERY 42º 16’ 56.93” N 074º 42’ 09.66” W 2056 Feet 2 - BALLENTYNE CEMETERY 42º 16’ 34.06” N 074º 44’ 18.04” W 1975 Feet 3 - BLACK CEMETERY (Approx) 42º 15’ 11.13” N 074º 45’ 40.38” W 1949 Feet 4 - BRUSH CEMETERY -

2018 Draft Amendment to the Blue Ridge Wilderness
BLUE RIDGE WILDERNESS Draft Amendment to the 2006 Blue Ridge Wilderness Unit Management Plan NYS DEC, REGION 5, DIVISION OF LANDS AND FORESTS 701 South Main St., Northville, NY 12134 [email protected] www.dec.ny.gov November 2018 Introduction The Blue Ridge Wilderness Area (BRWA) is located in the towns of Indian Lake, Long Lake, Arietta, and Lake Pleasant and the Village of Speculator within Hamilton County. The unit is 48,242 acres in size. A Unit Management Plan (UMP) for this area was completed in 2006. This UMP Amendment contains one proposal: Construction of the Seventh Lake Mountain – Sargent Ponds Multiple-Use Trail. Management Proposal Construction of the Seventh Lake Mountain – Sargent Ponds Multiple-Use Trail Background: During the planning efforts that led to the drafting and adoption of the Moose River Plains Wild Forest (MRPWF) UMP, it was realized that there is a great need for new, land-based snowmobile trail connections in the area. As a result, the 2011 MRPWF UMP put forth a conceptual proposal for a snowmobile trail leading eastward and north of MRPWF that would connect to the Sargent Ponds Wild Forest (SPWF) trail system—pending the adoption of a SPWF UMP. Ultimately, the Seventh Lake Mountain – Sargent Ponds Multiple-Use Trail will provide a land-based connection between the communities of Indian Lake, Raquette Lake, Inlet, and Long Lake. The proposed trail system will greatly reduce rider’s risk associated with lake crossings and traveling along and crossing major roads. Management Action: This UMP amendment proposes construction of a portion of the Seventh Lake Mountain – Sargent Ponds Multiple-Use Trail and its maintenance as a Class II Community Connector Trail. -
Shandaken Wild Forest Unit Management Plan
SHANDAKEN WILD FOREST Draft Unit Management Plan NYSDEC, REGION 3, DIVISION OF LANDS AND FORESTS 21 South Putt Corners Rd, New Paltz, NY 12561 [email protected] www.dec.ny.gov August 2020 This page intentionally left blank Preface The draft revision to the 2005 Shandaken Wild Forest Unit Management Plan has been developed pursuant to, and is consistent with, relevant provisions of the New York State Constitution, the Environmental Conservation Law (ECL), the Executive Law, the Catskill State Park State Land Master Plan (CPSLMP), New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (“Department”) rules and regulations, Department policies and procedures and the State Environmental Quality Review Act. The State lands that are the subject of this draft Unit Management Plan (UMP) are Forest Preserve lands protected by Article XIV, Section1 of the New York State Constitution. This Constitutional provision, which became effective on January 1,1885 provides in relevant part: “The lands of the state, now owned or hereafter acquired, constituting the Forest Preserve as now fixed by law, shall be forever kept as wild forest lands. They shall not be leased, sold or exchanged, or be taken by any corporation, public or private, nor shall the timber thereon be sold, removed or destroyed.” ECL§3-030 (1)(d) and 9-0105(1) provides the Department with jurisdiction to manage Forest Preserve lands. The Catskill Park State Land Master Plan (Master Plan) places State land within the Catskill State Park into the following classifications: Wilderness, Wild Forest, Primitive Bicycle Corridor, Intensive Use and State Administrative and sets forth management guidelines for the lands falling within each major classification. -
Margaretville Revitalization & Recreational Use Plan
Village of Margaretville Revitalization & Recreational Use Plan Prepared By: The M-ARK Project, Inc. In Cooperation With: The Catskill Center Birgitta Brophy, RLA Lamont Engineers November 2001 Village of Margaretville INTRODUCTION Revitalization & Recreational Use Plan INTRODUCTION The Village of Margaretville is a quaint historic village nestled in the heart of the Catskill Mountains. Incorporated in 1875, Margaretville is located in the eastern corner of rural Delaware County, situated at the intersection of New York State Routes 28 and 30. The East Branch of the Delaware River flows through the heart of the Village, and is one of its most prominent natural features. The river is subject to periodic flooding, and the Village has experienced at least three catastrophic floods in the past 100 years. Most recently, in January of 1996, a massive flood swept through the valley causing extensive damage to several homes and businesses along the river. A year later, Delaware County, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the New York City Department of Environmental Protection (NYCDEP) entered into an arrangement to purchase 22 properties in the Village, and demolish the existing buildings located in either the floodway or floodplain. This “buy-out” program was completed in 2000, resulting in a large swath of very visible vacant properties along Margaretville’s Main Street. Through an education grant provided by the Catskill Watershed Corporation, students from the Margaretville Central School (located on Main Street directly across from some of the affected properties) worked in partnership with the Frost Valley YMCA, the M-ARK Project (a local community development organization), Village officials, the Delaware County Planning Department, and the NYCDEP to recommend potential public uses for these properties. -
Pavement Preservation Program 2015-2016 Project Solicitation
Adirondack / Glens Falls Transportation Council Pavement Preservation Program 2015‐2016 Project Solicitation Introduction The Adirondack / Glens Falls Transportation Council is the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) for the Planning and Programming Area that includes Warren County, Washington County, and the Town of Moreau and Village of South Glens Falls In Saratoga County. MPOs are responsible for administering a cooperative and continuing regional transportation planning process. A principal component of that process is capital programming for federally‐ funded transportation improvement projects. A/GFTC is seeking project candidates for its Pavement Preservation Program. This program consists of annual funding setasides dedicated for maintenance and preservation projects intended to prevent the deterioration of roadways that are presently in good to fair condition. The intent of the program is to encourage municipalities to actively engage in preventative maintenance strategies that reduce the need for more costly infrastructure replacement and major rehabilitation projects. Programming Levels A/GFTC has programmed $1,591,000 in matched federal Surface Transportation Program funds for pavement preservation projects that are to be obligated during Federal Fiscal Year (FFY) 2015‐2016. Additionally, $164,000 in matched funds has been programmed for FFY 2014‐2015 for any required design associated with the selected projects. A local match of 20% is required in order to access design and construction funds. The potential availability of Marchiselli funding, a State program that covers 75% of the required local match for federal aid transportation projects, could reduce the required local match to 5% of the overall project cost. Eligible Roadways All projects must be sponsored by a local municipality (Village, City, Town or County). -
HAR-20-03 Schoharie, New York, Highway Accident Report
Stretch Limousine Run-Off-Road Crash Near Schoharie, New York October 6, 2018 Accident Report NTSB/HAR-20/03 National PB2020-101008 Transportation Safety Board NTSB/HAR-20/03 PB2020-101008 Notation 64871 Adopted September 29, 2020 Highway Accident Report Stretch Limousine Run-Off-Road Crash Near Schoharie, New York October 6, 2018 National Transportation Safety Board 490 L’Enfant Plaza, S.W. Washington, D.C. 20594 National Transportation Safety Board. 2020. Stretch Limousine Run-Off-Road Crash, Near Schoharie, New York, October 6, 2018. Highway Accident Report NTSB/HAR-20/03. Washington, DC: NTSB. Abstract: On October 6, 2018, about 1:55 p.m., a 2001 Ford Excursion XLT stretch limousine, operated by Prestige Limousine and Chauffeur Service, was traveling south on New York State Route 30 (NY-30) near Schoharie, New York. The limousine, occupied by a driver and 17 passengers, was descending a grade that began 1.81 miles north of a T-intersection with New York State Route 30A (NY-30A). The posted speed limit was 55 mph. Although the driver likely applied the brakes while descending the hill, the brake system failed to effectively slow the limousine, and its speed increased to over 100 mph. The driver steered to avoid a car stopped at the NY-30/NY-30A intersection, proceeded past a stop sign, crossed the intersection, and entered the driveway of a restaurant parking lot. The limousine struck an unoccupied sport utility vehicle (SUV) parked in a field adjacent to the driveway. Two pedestrians standing near the SUV were struck by it when the SUV was forced forward by the limousine. -
3. Affected Environment
Draft Champlain Hudson Power Express EIS 3. Affected Environment This section provides a description of the existing environment within the proposed CHPE Project area. To facilitate discussion, this EIS divides the approximately 336-mile (541-km) proposed transmission line route into four segments: Lake Champlain Segment (Section 3.1), Overland Segment (Section 3.2), Hudson River Segment (Section 3.3), and New York City Metropolitan Area Segment (Section 3.4). This division is based on geographical and environmental similarities along the route, as described in Section 2.4.1. The Lake Champlain and Hudson River segments contain primarily aquatic corridors, the Overland Segment contains primarily terrestrial corridors, and the New York City Metropolitan Area Segment is a combination of aquatic and terrestrial corridors. The potential impacts associated with constructing and operating the proposed CHPE Project are discussed in Chapter 5 based on the environmental resource areas described in the following sections. Brief definitions of each resource area; laws, regulations, and guidelines potentially applicable to the resource; and existing conditions are discussed for each segment, as appropriate. A region of influence (ROI) for each resource area in which impacts would likely occur is also defined. The ROIs were determined based on regulatory requirements, where applicable, combined with the expected maximum area of measurable construction or operational impacts for that particular resource. 3.1 Lake Champlain Segment 3.1.1 Land Use 3.1.1.1 Background on the Resource Area This section describes existing land uses in the vicinity of the proposed CHPE Project route, and land use plans and policies applicable to the proposed CHPE Project area. -
APPENDIX I Scenic Visual Analysis and Historic
APPENDIX I Scenic Visual Analysis and Historic • APA Visual Impact Analysis Methodology I2-3 • National Historic Landmark Designation I4-12 • Scenic Byway Designation: State Highway Law, Article 12-C, Section 349 I13-21 I- 1 Visual Impact Assessment Methodology Agency and Department staff will consult on the need for a Visual Impact Assessment (VIA). Typically, VIAs would only be required in major reconstruction projects where there is a substantial visual change proposed in the highway corridor, or where the Department is proposing new or out-of-kind replacement buildings, bridges or other structures, or where there is significant vegetative cutting along State highways. The Department (and its Consultants, as appropriate) shall prepare a Visual Impact Assessment (VIA) of significant visual resources in accordance with current NYSDOT visual assessment policy. The VIA shall be prepared by or under the direct guidance of a registered landscape architect experienced in VIA preparation. In addition to the general methodology and subtasks outlined below, the Department shall consult with the Agency regarding any project-specific methodology and subtasks before starting the work. The Department shall prepare appropriate viewshed mapping for existing conditions, each design alternative, and the null alternative (wherever null alternative viewsheds at the design year would differ significantly from existing conditions) to define the physical limits of the affected visual environment. Delineate the relevant viewsheds on a 7.5 minute topographic map: Foreground (0 to 0.5 mile), middleground (0.5 to 3.5 miles) and background (3.5 to 5 miles). Indicate the location of all public use areas on this map. -

Thursday, January 2, 2014 (10:00 A
REGULAR SESSION FIRST DAY Wednesday, May 1, 2019 The Board Chair called the Board to order, the roll was called and the following Representatives were found to be present: Frazier, Farwell, Clark, Kennedy, Oberacker, Bliss, McCarty, Wilber, Koutnik, Martini, Lapin, Shannon. Under Privilege of the Floor, Ed Dawyot, Hamlet of Welcome, Town of New Lisbon stated that the County should look to the past to improve the future and a current employee should be the County Manager as that would be an incentive for employees to do better and move up the ladder. Russ Ahrens, Otsego County employee, stated he lives with Maria Ajello because the County took her home, the County needs to make it right with Maria Ajello and Bob Force, and when the County takes more than the taxes and penalties that are owed on a property it is immoral and wrong. Maria Ajello, Otsego County employee, stated that she is a 10 year employee, she comes every month and no one listens, the directive made for her property by Judge Burns was ignored, it was discriminatory, and Senator James Seward has sent an email about fixing this. The minutes of April 3, 2019 were approved. The following reports are on file with the Clerk of the Board: March 2019 Monthly Report of Alternatives to Incarceration Program Services rendered by Catholic Charities of Delaware and Otsego Counties The following communications were read and ordered filed: Resolution from the Town of Hartwick Planning Board requesting that the County make County Hwy 11 between State Route 205 and State Route 28 a priority in care, upkeep, and funding, and also that a percentage of bed tax funds to be dedicated to such care and upkeep.
