Cultural Resources: Historic and Archaeological 7.1 Definitions of Terms Before one can develop a more complete understanding of cultural resources, it is important to understand the nature of these resources and the terms used in pertinent sections of the Central Pine Barrens Plan. Accordingly, the following terms used in this section are defined as follows: Aboriginal - Pertaining to native inhabitants (i.e., the original Native American inhabitants of Long Island). Adaptive Reuse - The retrofitting and preservation, as opposed to destruction, of an historic structure for a new purpose, (e.g., the use of an historic residence or for an office.). rchaeological Resources - Material remains of past habitations or activities which may be below or ove ground. Cultural resource - As defined by the National Park Service in its "Cultural Resources Management Guidelines," cultural resources are: Those tangible and intangible aspects of cultural systems, both living and dead, that are valued by or representative of a given culture or that contain information about a culture . .. and [they] include but are not limited to sites, structures, districts, objects and artifacts, and historic documents associated with or representative of peoples, cultures, and human activities and events, either in the present or in the past. Cultural resources also can include the primary written and verbal data for interpreting and understanding those tangible resources. As commonly defined, these may be archaeological (that is, found beneath the surface) or above-ground resources. hese may include, but are not limited to: * 1. Components of structures and features (houses, mills, piers, fortifications, earthworks, ditches and mounds, roads, etc.).

    STATE OF NEW YORK DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL CO~SERVATION 625 BROADWAY ALBANY, NEW YORK 12233-1010 In the Matter ~ of - the Proposed nCommunity" Designations for Two Locations Within the Recreational Segment of the Peconic River Corridor, in Suffolk County, New York, Within the Wild, Scenic and Recreational Rivers System Pursuant to Article 15, Title 27 of the Environmental Conservation Law (nECL") and Part 666 of Title 6 of the Official Compilation of Codes, Rules and Regulations of the State of New York ("6 NYCRR"), - by - the Town of Riverhead, Suffolk County, and the County of Suffolk, New York. COMMISSIONER'S DECISION AND ORDER January/~, 2010 COMMISSIONER'S DECISION AND ORDER This administrative proceeding presents a question of first impression for the Department, namely; whether to designate specific localities as ncomrnunities" within a river area that has been classified nrecreational" by the Wild, Scenic.and Recreational Rivers Systems Act ("WSRRSA"). Statutory and Regulatory Background The WSRRSA, enacted in 1973 (L. 1973, c. 400) and contained in Article 15, Title 27 of the Environmental Conservation Law ("EeL"), is primarily a land 'use and control law administered by the Department and, in certain instances, by the Adirondack Park Agency (see ECL §§ 15-2701 and 15-2705). An express purpose of the WSRR$A is to preserve certain.selected rivers of the state. in free-flowing condition, and. to protect those rivers and their immediate environs "for the benefit and enjoyment of present and future generations" (ECL § 15-2701[3J). In 1986, the Department promulgated regulations to implement the provisions of the WSRRsA in Part 666 of Title 6 of the Official Compilation of Codes, Rules and Regulations of the State of New York ("6 NYCRR").

  • Strontium Isotope Study of the Peconic River
    Strontium Isotope study of the Peconic River Watershed Long Island, New York Geng Xin and Gilbert N.Hanson Department of Earth and Space Sciences State University of New York at Stony Brook Stony Brook, NY 11794-2100 Written in 1994 Based on the MS Thesis by Geng Xin “Strontium Isotope Study of the Peconic River Watershed, Long Island, New York, Stony Brook University, 1993. Accessible in the Science and Engineering Library at Stony Brook Uni- versity with call number x GB565.N72 P42 1993. Abstract The Peconic River Watershed covers approximately 120 km2 of pine barrens in eastern Long Island. This area is lightly populated and has a relatively simple groundwater system in that the only input of water is from pre- cipitation and the dominant output of water is stream runoff with minor subsurface flow discharge to the sea. Forty-one samples of precipitation, throughfall, plants, soil, soil water, surface water and ground water collected during the calendar year 1991 were analyzed for strontium concentration and isotope composition. Our results sug- gest that soil weathering probably makes only a small contribution to the total Sr input. Dry precipitation accounts for approximately 90% of the total Sr input to the system with wet precipitation supplying the other 10. Biomass and adsorbed Sr on the surface of soil particles at shallow depth are the two major reservoirs of Sr and hold more than 90% of the Sr in the system. The estimated residence time for Sr within this system is approximately 50 years. Introduction Several attempts have been made to distinguish the sources of the inputs of Sr in natural water systems (e.

  • INTRODUCTION the Flanders/Northampton/Riverside
    Flanders/Northampton/Riverside Revitalization Study INTRODUCTION The Flanders/Northampton/Riverside hamlets comprise a socially and economically diverse area within the Town of Southampton. These hamlets are home to many historic and culturally significant structures, several scenic areas, various active local institutions and a populace comprised of a wide range of social and economic groups. Despite these attributes, the area suffers from a lack of strong identity, private investment, crime, pollution and a poor mix of land uses. Accordingly, in January 2002, the Town Board authorized the Department of Land Management to prepare the Flanders/Northampton/Riverside (FNR) Hamlet Revitalization Study, which was initiated in April 2002 by the Consultant team of Ferrandino & Associates Inc. with Dvirka and Bartilucci and Greenwoods Associates. The Scope of Work for this Revitalization Study clearly articulated objectives to examine land use options that would: • Create a better sense of identity for each of these hamlets • Accommodate tax ratable development • Coordinate development with neighboring Riverhead • Promote market rate housing and neighborhood enhancements • Capture Pine Barren Credits in connection with the New York State Central Pine Barrens Plan and other efforts to protect the local environment • Preserve maritime resources and the Peconic Estuary • Implement plans to make Route 24 into a scenic Maritime Corridor, and not just a highway to relieve congestion in Riverhead • Utilize proximity to adjoining natural areas including

  • The Status and Distribution of the River Otter (Lontra Canadensis) on Long Island, New York
    The Status and Distribution of the River Otter (Lontra canadensis) on Long Island, New York Otter with Golden Shiner at St.John’s Pond, Oyster Bay, December 2008. Robert Sendlein Photo. Submitted by: Mike Bottini, Wildlife Biologist 631-267-5228 [email protected] March 1, 2009 ABSTRACT Historically, river otters (Lontra canadensis) were found on many of Long Island’s waterways: fresh and salt water ponds, creeks, embayments on the island’s north and south shores, as well as the Peconic River and Estuary on the island’s eastern end. In the 1800s, several factors (unregulated trapping, water pollution, and habitat loss) caused a dramatic decline in otter populations throughout its range in North America and local extirpations in many areas, including Long Island. Conservation laws enacted in the early 1900s enabled remnant otter populations to expand and re-colonize former habitat. Little is known about the current status and distribution of river otters on Long Island, a region that poses formidable challenges for the natural re-colonization of extirpated wildlife because of its geographic location and development patterns. An informational flyer was distributed to natural resource and park staff, local media, and the general public to solicit data on otter sightings and roadkills. This data, along with historical information and knowledge of otter habits, was used to map 144 potential otter latrine sites on Long Island. Each potential latrine site was surveyed during the winter (January through March) of 2008. Twenty-seven sites were documented as active otter latrine sites, with one cluster of sites near the western end of the island exhibiting evidence of successful breeding.

  • Peconic Estuary Program Public Education and Outreach Support Final Report 2015
    Peconic Estuary Program Public Education and Outreach Support Final Report 2015 Prepared by Cornell Cooperative Extension of Suffolk County Prepared for the Peconic Estuary Program and New England Interstate Water Pollution Control Commission December 31, 2015 NEI Job Code: 0307-003 Project Code: 2014-026 Project Period: 12/1/14 to 12/31/15 Summary: The Cornell Cooperative Extension (CCE) of Suffolk County education and outreach programs enable citizens “to improve their lives and communities through partnerships that put experience and research knowledge to work”. On behalf of the Peconic Estuary Program (PEP), CCE is developing community awareness of PEP’s estuary management program by expanding upon existing programing and developing new and innovative ideas to implement the goals established by the PEP Comprehensive Conservation and Management Plan (CCMP) on nutrient management, water quality, habitat protection/restoration, stormwater control, and public education. Cornell Cooperative Extension has extensive experience directly working-on, and leading many of the “Call to Action” topics such as: eelgrass, habitat restoration, stormwater pollution and nutrients. CCE has a long-standing history of producing timely and relevant educational materials on these topics. During the contract period, the outreach team achieved this through public outreach at community events, seminars at libraries, and community groups through print, television, and Internet outputs by focusing on nitrogen and water quality issues as they pertain to the concerns of the Peconic community. Within this past year the CCE team has developed a PEP outreach program with a targeted social media campaign, increased visibility within the community. We have also reinvigorated the Citizens Advisory Committee, increased public information, and documented attitudes toward estuary issues that result from educational outreach efforts this year.
