In general, the soils underneath the Greenway tend to be gravelly or silty clay loam. The entire trail is fairly level, with the majority of slopes being less than five percent. A complete, narrative description of the soils can be found in Appendix F Natural Resources Flora A complete biological inventory of Greenway property is not presently available (October 2013). However, SUNY Geneseo botany students began to inventory flora within sections of the corridor. The New York State Natural Heritage Program has targeted the GVG for a Natural Heritage inventory in 2014.

  • 1995-Vol21-No4web.Pdf
    Renaissance HI s SUMMER has been a distressing one for those concerned about wildlife populations, in Tparticular trout populations, in the drought- plagued East. The Battenkill, here in Vermont, has been virtually unfishable. Anyone who cares about that fishery resource has stayed away from the river, not wanting to further stress the fish gasping for oxy- gen in the dangerously low water. We find ourselves praying that these months of drought and heat will have less impact than we suspect and fear. The Museum, though, is undergoing an inspiring renaissance. We have a new dvnamic director whose energetic and visionary presence has been felt imme- diately; he has brought a new spirit to the Museum, one that we hope you will become part of as we head toward the twenty-first century. In this Fall issue of The American Fly Fisher, we present a detailed history of the Adirondack League Club, written by former Museum director and author Paul Schullery. We think you'll find his comprehen- sive article-about a group of people who, over the years, has acted as steward to a huge section of the Adirondacks - most interesting." We have also excerpted some thought-provoking, historic quotes from a new book by another former director, John Merwin, called Well-Cast Lines. These nuggets have withstood the test of time. (It may ap- pear that we are heavy in the area of former directors in this issue, but it so happens that these fellows are among the best writers in our field.) Personally, I am delighted to report that we are adding another member to the team that produces The American Fly Fisher.

  • Federal Fiscal Year 2010 (October 1, 2009 Through September 30, 2010)
    GENESEE TRANSPORTATION COUNCIL Annual Listing of Federally Obligated Projects for Federal Fiscal Year 2010 (October 1, 2009 through September 30, 2010) Purpose Federal regulations require an “Annual Listing” of transportation projects, including investments in pedestrian walkways and bicycle facilities, for which federal funds have been obligated in the preceding year be made available for public review by the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO). The listing must be consistent with the funding categories identified in the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP). In order to meet this requirement, Genesee Transportation Council (GTC) staff solicited information from the New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) and the Rochester Genesee Regional Transportation Authority (RGRTA), and compiled a list of projects located in the seven-county NYSDOT – Region 4 area for which federal transportation funds were obligated in Federal Fiscal Year (FFY) 2010 (i.e., between October 1, 2009 and September 30, 2010). An obligation is the U.S. Department of Transportation's legal commitment to pay the federal share of a project's cost. Projects for which funds have been obligated are not necessarily initiated or completed in a given program year, and the amount of the obligation in a single year will not necessarily equal the total cost of the project. Background The U.S. Department of Transportation requires every metropolitan area with a population over 50,000 to have a designated MPO to qualify for receipt of federal highway and public transportation funds. The Governor of New York State designated GTC as the MPO responsible for transportation planning in the nine-county Genesee-Finger Lakes region, which includes Genesee, Livingston, Monroe, Ontario, Orleans, Seneca, Wayne, Wyoming, and Yates counties.

It is a nationally ranked Christian liberal arts college located in the scenic Genesee Valley of western New York State. It is built on the steeper shores of the Genesee River with stones brought up from the river bed by the grandfathers of some of the present staff. It is a beautiful setting with buildings of soft gray exhibiting classic Greek architecture. It is a church oriented campus, so alcohol is prohibited. The campus is on 1300 acres and has over 4 miles of hiking trails in the Houghton Forest and a creek that runs through the campus. Bring your kayak or canoe to paddle on the Genesee River.
