P R EF A C E Th ere is a growing demand for the means of local geo a a n d u graphic l historical st dy in schools, and this little manual is intended to meet this dem and for the schools of Otsego County . It was originally prepared in manuscript for classes in the Oneonta State Normal school and now, with the approval and encou ragement of the school commissioners and teachers of ff . the county, is o ered in its present form In its preparation I have had the pleasu re of visiting every n towshipin the county , thus gaining information at first hand and from the most relia ble sources . For events previous to our a I . time, have found excellent m terial The history of the 1878 d county from the earliest times to , by D . Hamilton Hur , l I is very comp ete to that date, and have , with permission , I freely quoted from it . In addition to this have had access to ’ “ ” ’ “ Campbell s Annals of Tryon County , Beardsley s Remi ’ n i sc en c es and Anecdotes, and Halsey s Old New York Fron — t tier, three works of surpassing interest, ogether with a num ’ “ ber of local sketches, including Sawyer s History of Cherry ” ’ ’ a Ric hfield V lley , Ward s Annals of , Campbell s History “ S ’ f ’ of Oneonta, haw s History o Cooperstown, Halsey s “ ’ - Pioneers of Unadilla, and Hotchkin s History of Mary ” ' I e land . am also indebted to the supervisors of the s veral town ships and to others for careful revision of the township maps and of the text , by which the greatest accuracy has been secured . i d While mak ng this study , an opinion previously forme has i a been essentially mod fied . That opinion w s that farming in u t Otsego co n y had, owing to western competition and other be causes, ceased to profitable ;that there were many abandoned u farms, and that the rising generation tho ght only of getting away from the old homestead and seeking employment else du e where . All such views must be to the depression of f ormer th years, for they are no longer true to e facts . The increase i n rural prosperity evident throughout the state is equally apparent PR EFACE in this region . Owing to the tendency of population toward o the villages there are some abandoned farmh uses, but there u are no abandoned farm lands in the co nty , and the intelligent n and thrifty farmer is everywhere doing well . This improveme t m dai r m is ost eviden t in the line of y g, which is now the leading n r and most profitable i dgs t y. Otsego county h as a most interesting and honorable record . Its early settlers were of good New England and old England stock , and their numerous descendants here and in the west , to which many of them have gone , must read with interest the n v record of pio eer struggles, of victory over sa age and foreign i u u en foes, of heroic strife for the Un on , of modern c lt re and ter ris e p . The study of geography properly commences around the home . The perspective of world study is better from this stand u point , and the children who become thoro ghly interested in it will go on to the stu dy of their own and foreign countries with a i i clearer idea of its nature and mportance . The prevail ng inter es t in local geography is therefore to be encouraged by every m a means , and it is hoped that this little contribution to it y prove acceptable to the teachers of the county . While primarily intended as a school text book, the require ments of the business world have also been kept in view in the u a ll preparation of this work . The co nty and township maps, to da te from original drawings , are thoroughly up , and the de trav el o u lati on os t- ofli ces scriptive text concerning routes of , p p , p , newspapers, business and manufacturing interests, express , tel graph and telephone facilities, commend it to all classes , while its business - like quality can in no Wise I mpair Its usefuln ess 1 11 - the class room .

  • Upper Susquehanna Subbasin Survey: a Water Quality and Biological Assessment, June – September 2007
    Upper Susquehanna Subbasin Survey: A Water Quality and Biological Assessment, June – September 2007 The Susquehanna River Basin Commission (SRBC) conducted a water quality and biological survey of the Upper Susquehanna Subbasin from June to September 2007. This survey is part of SRBC’s Subbasin Survey Program, which is funded in part by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA). The Subbasin Survey Program consists of two- year assessments in each of the six major subbasins (Figure 1) on a rotating schedule. This report details the Year-1 survey, which consists of point-in-time water chemistry, macroinvertebrate, and habitat data collection and assessments of the major tributaries and areas of interest throughout the Upper Susquehanna Subbasin. The Year-2 survey will be conducted in the Tioughnioga River over a one-year time period beginning in summer 2008. The Year-2 survey is part of a larger monitoring effort associated with an environmental restoration effort at Whitney Point Lake. Previous SRBC surveys of the Upper Susquehanna Subbasin were conducted in 1998 (Stoe, 1999) and 1984 (McMorran, 1985). Subbasin survey information is used by SRBC staff and others to: • evaluate the chemical, biological, and habitat conditions of streams in the basin; • identify major sources of pollution and lengths of streams impacted; • identify high quality sections of streams that need to be protected; • maintain a database that can be used to document changes in stream quality over time; • review projects affecting water quality in the basin; and • identify areas for more intensive study. Description of the Upper Susquehanna Subbasin The Upper Susquehanna Subbasin is an interstate subbasin that drains approximately 4,950 square miles of southcentral New York and a small portion of northeastern Pennsylvania.

  • Brook Trout Outcome Management Strategy
    Brook Trout Outcome Management Strategy Introduction Brook Trout symbolize healthy waters because they rely on clean, cold stream habitat and are sensitive to rising stream temperatures, thereby serving as an aquatic version of a “canary in a coal mine”. Brook Trout are also highly prized by recreational anglers and have been designated as the state fish in many eastern states. They are an essential part of the headwater stream ecosystem, an important part of the upper watershed’s natural heritage and a valuable recreational resource. Land trusts in West Virginia, New York and Virginia have found that the possibility of restoring Brook Trout to local streams can act as a motivator for private landowners to take conservation actions, whether it is installing a fence that will exclude livestock from a waterway or putting their land under a conservation easement. The decline of Brook Trout serves as a warning about the health of local waterways and the lands draining to them. More than a century of declining Brook Trout populations has led to lost economic revenue and recreational fishing opportunities in the Bay’s headwaters. Chesapeake Bay Management Strategy: Brook Trout March 16, 2015 - DRAFT I. Goal, Outcome and Baseline This management strategy identifies approaches for achieving the following goal and outcome: Vital Habitats Goal: Restore, enhance and protect a network of land and water habitats to support fish and wildlife, and to afford other public benefits, including water quality, recreational uses and scenic value across the watershed. Brook Trout Outcome: Restore and sustain naturally reproducing Brook Trout populations in Chesapeake Bay headwater streams, with an eight percent increase in occupied habitat by 2025.

  • Summary of Nitrogen, Phosphorus, and Suspended-Sediment Loads and Trends Measured at the Chesapeake Bay Nontidal Network Stations for Water Years 2009–2018
    Summary of Nitrogen, Phosphorus, and Suspended-Sediment Loads and Trends Measured at the Chesapeake Bay Nontidal Network Stations for Water Years 2009–2018 Prepared by Douglas L. Moyer and Joel D. Blomquist, U.S. Geological Survey, March 2, 2020 The Chesapeake Bay nontidal network (NTN) currently consists of 123 stations throughout the Chesapeake Bay watershed. Stations are located near U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) stream-flow gages to permit estimates of nutrient and sediment loadings and trends in the amount of loadings delivered downstream. Routine samples are collected monthly, and 8 additional storm-event samples are also collected to obtain a total of 20 samples per year, representing a range of discharge and loading conditions (Chesapeake Bay Program, 2020). The Chesapeake Bay partnership uses results from this monitoring network to focus restoration strategies and track progress in restoring the Chesapeake Bay. Methods Changes in nitrogen, phosphorus, and suspended-sediment loads in rivers across the Chesapeake Bay watershed have been calculated using monitoring data from 123 NTN stations (Moyer and Langland, 2020). Constituent loads are calculated with at least 5 years of monitoring data, and trends are reported after at least 10 years of data collection. Additional information for each monitoring station is available through the USGS website “Water-Quality Loads and Trends at Nontidal Monitoring Stations in the Chesapeake Bay Watershed” (https://cbrim.er.usgs.gov/). This website provides State, Federal, and local partners as well as the general public ready access to a wide range of data for nutrient and sediment conditions across the Chesapeake Bay watershed. In this summary, results are reported for the 10-year period from 2009 through 2018.

  • Aquatic Invasive Species Present in Otsego County, NY Water Bodies
    Aquatic invasive species present in Otsego County, NY water bodies Annie Yoo1, Kaylee Herzog2, and Holly Waterfield CLM3 INTRODUCTION Otsego County, located in central New York, experiences increased populations in the summer months largely related to tourism and outdoor recreation. Abundant water resources in the county, combined with this increase in summer traffic contribute to the risk of invasive species transport between water bodies and major watersheds. Knowledge of the current distribution of invasive species will allow natural resource managers to prioritize transport prevention and population control measures. Exotic invasive species are those not native to an area that outcompete native species. Such exotic, non-native species typically possess traits which, in combination with lack of natural disease and/or predators, allow them to out-compete native species (Santos et al. 2011) and in-so-doing have negative ecological and economic impacts. Some of these impacts include productivity losses in agriculture, forestry, and other segments of the U.S. economy (Pimentel 2005). Aquatic invasive species (AIS) pose major threats to biodiversity in ecosystems. They often overtake important native aquatic plants and animals, cause habitat degradation and loss, and interfere with water-based recreational activities (Zhang and Boyle 2010). Pimentel (2005) suggests it is difficult to estimate the full extent of the environmental damages caused by invasive species and the number of species extinctions they have caused because little is known about each of the ~750,000 species present in the United States. In most cases AIS are initially introduced to watersheds through recreational boating activities or unintentional “hitchhiking ” (Horvath 2008), which can occur through international trade, with invaders stowed in ships, planes, trucks, or packing materials (McNeely 2001).
