Histor) was being presented in a "conze alive" way that would have been difficult to duplicate in the classroom. The restoration work on the early kitchen and the small "red" bedroom is almost completed. Soon you will be able to see the results of the effortsof the House Committee and the Restoration Committee. Some of the history of Smith's Tavern will come alive before your eyes. The current exhibition at the Tavern is based on early colonial crafts. A unique feature will be the demonstrations to be given by various people skill- ed in each of the crafts featui-ed. Come, learn how it is done - maybe even pick up a new hobby. As you probably know from reading the papers, your Society is currently exploring the possibility of adding two historic buildings to the present Tavern site. It is too soon to say more than that we are optimistically hopeful.

  • 2014 Aquatic Invasive Species Surveys of New York City Water Supply Reservoirs Within the Catskill/Delaware and Croton Watersheds
    2014 aquatic invasive species surveys of New York City water supply reservoirs within the Catskill/Delaware and Croton Watersheds Megan Wilckens1, Holly Waterfield2 and Willard N. Harman3 INTRODUCTION The New York City Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) oversees the management and protection of the New York City water supply reservoirs, which are split between two major watershed systems, referred to as East of Hudson Watersheds (Figure 1) and Catskill/Delaware Watershed (Figure 2). The DEP is concerned about the presence of aquatic invasive species (AIS) in reservoirs because they can threaten water quality and water supply operations (intake pipes and filtration systems), degrade the aquatic ecosystem found there as well as reduce recreational opportunities for the community. Across the United States, AIS cause around $120 billion per year in environmental damages and other losses (Pimentel et al. 2005). The SUNY Oneonta Biological Field Station was contracted by DEP to conduct AIS surveys on five reservoirs; the Ashokan, Rondout, West Branch, New Croton and Kensico reservoirs. Three of these reservoirs, as well as major tributary streams to all five reservoirs, were surveyed for AIS in 2014. This report details the survey results for the Ashokan, Rondout, and West Branch reservoirs, and Esopus Creek, Rondout Creek, West Branch Croton River, East Branch Croton River and Bear Gutter Creek. The intent of each survey was to determine the presence or absence of the twenty- three AIS on the NYC DEP’s AIS priority list (Table 1). This list was created by a subcommittee of the Invasive Species Working Group based on a water supply risk assessment.

  • 2014 Fishing Derby Tips
    2014 Fishing Derby Tips Dear Derby Participant: Most participants believe they have to catch a large trophy fish to win one of the 173 cash prizes totaling $7,560.00 in this year’s fishing derby. This is not so, in 2013, 40 of the prizes totally $1235.00 were not awarded due to no entries. I have compiled the following list of fishing tips you can use to take advantage of this situation and improve your chances to win a prize in 2014. 1. The 20 reservoirs that comprise the New York City Reservoir System offer year round fishing opportunities within minutes of area residents. In addition, there are hundreds of local streams, lakes and ponds as well as the Hudson and Delaware Rivers, and Long Island Sound, which offer excellent fishing opportunities. The Southern New York Fishing Directory is an angler’s Bible for not only the young inexperienced angler but to the older veteran fishermen looking for new places to fish. Order a copy when you register for the 2014 Derby. 2. Historically March, September, October and November offer the best opportunity to win a prize. In March fishing activity is at it’s lowest due to the poor weather conditions, unsafe ice, and the boating season is just beginning on many of the NYC reservoirs. Take advantage of good weather breaks and fish for trout near the bridges and open water areas using live bait and casting spoons. Fish the warmer water inlets for pre spawn crappies and perch. Most trout and panfish caught in March will win prizes.

  • 3.8 Public Infrastructure, Sanitation Services, and Utilities 3.8.1 Water
    3.8 Public Infrastructure, Sanitation Services, and Utilities 3.8 Public Infrastructure, Sanitation Services, and Utilities 3.8.1 Water Supply 3.8.1.1. Existing Municipal Water System Capacity One hundred percent (100%) of the water delivered by the City of White Plains is purchased from the New York City Department of Environmental Protection (NYCDEP) through Westchester County Water District No. 1. The raw water purchased from NYCDEP is drawn from the Kensico Reservoir, which is an unfiltered surface water source. Kensico Reservoir delivers high quality water and has sufficient capacity to supply the City. The City’s three wells, which supply a total of approximately 150,000 to 200,000 gallons per day, were removed from service in 2009. The Federal EPA had previously enacted the Surface Water Treatment Rule (SWTR), which required the City to conduct a study to determine if these wells were under the influence of nearby surface water and that was found to be the case with the City’s wells. Although the water quality from these wells has been consistently high for many decades, the new regulations (stated under NYSDOH PWS 43 Technical Reference) require the City to filter this water. As the City had already begun the process of rehabilitating its reservoir filtration plant, the unit is being redesigned to also incorporate the well supply. This will enable the City to meet the latest Federal and New York State Regulations pertaining to both the City’s alternate water supplies (Reservoirs and Wells) using a single filtration plant. The City plans to resume using both the reservoirs and the wells in 2014, as they are currently out of service.
