The project has positive environmental impacts consisting of the reduction of erosion and sediment movement into the adjacent waters of the state and improved reliability and resiliency of the adjacent municipal sewer and stormwater systems. This project additionally involves impacts to wetlands and floodplains in the form of permitted wetlands impacts and de minimus floodplain impacts. Otherwise, this project may have been eligible for Categorical Exclusion from detailed environmental review; additionally, the direct and indirect environmental effects of the project are still not significant enough to necessitate an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS). The Department's environmental review procedures require a 30‐day public comment period following the issuance of a Notice of Intent to Issue a Finding of No Significant Impact. If no public comments received during that period demonstrate that this Notice of Intent is in error, then the Finding of No Significant Impact will become effective.

  • Dams and Reservoirs in the Lake Champlain Richelieu River Basin
    JUST THE FACTS SERIES June 2019 DAMS AND RESERVOIRS IN THE LAKE CHAMPLAIN RICHELIEU RIVER BASIN MYTH Water released from tributary dams in the United States causes flooding in Lake Champlain and the Richelieu River. FACT Water levels in Lake Champlain and the Richelieu River Generally, mass releases of water from flood control are primarily affected by precipitation from rain or dams are avoided. In addition to compromising the snowmelt. structural integrity of the dams, mass releases would also endanger the very communities that these dams are built Because of its size, Lake Champlain can store a lot of to protect. water; the flood control dams and reservoirs in the basin, which are very small in comparison to the lake, do not When conditions force the release of more water than significantly change water levels of the lake and river as hydropower plants can handle, the increase in water they release water. levels immediately below the dam will be much greater than the increase on Lake Champlain. This is true even during high water and flooding events. Consider, for instance, when Lake Champlain and the Richelieu River experienced extreme flooding between April and June 2011, the additional releases flowing from Waterbury Reservoir—the largest flood control reservoir in the Vermont portion of the basin, contributed less than 2 centimetres (¾ inch) to the elevation of Lake Champlain and the upper Richelieu River. International Lake Champlain-Richelieu River Study Board FACT FACT Dams in the US portion of the basin are built for one of Waterbury Reservoir in Vermont is the largest reservoir two purposes: flood control or hydroelectric power.

    A2-1 BEST KEPT GEOLOGIC SECRETS OF THE ADIRONDACKS AND CHAMPLAIN VALLEY by Mary K. Roden-Tice. Center for Earth and Environmental Science, Plattsburgh State University ofNew York, Plattsburgh. NY 12901 INTRODUCTION Finding clear, well-exposed field locations to help illustrate important aspects of petrology and structural geology to undergraduate students can be a challenge for a professor. In this field trip, we will visit the following four field stops in the Adirondack Mountains and Champlain Vaney that are routinely used in my classes: the Cannon Point intrusive south ofEssex; the Craig Harbor faultIine scarp in Port Henry; the intrusion breccia in Roaring Brook on Giant Mt.; and Split Rock Falls crackle zone south of New Russia. In structural geology, the class works on field exercises that illustrate normal faulting at Craig Harbor and different orientations ofjoint sets at Split Rock Falls. Petrology students compare Proterozoic anorthosite containing xenoliths of metasedimentary rocks from the Roaring Brook intrusion breccia on Giant Mt. with a Cretaceous laccolith of trachyte porphyry on the shore of Lake Champlain. All oftbese outcrops are easily accessible and provide excellent opportunities for experientialleaming. REGIONAL GEOLOGY Summary The Adirondack Mountains are a regionallyelevllted exposure of Grenville age (ca. 1.0-1.35 Ga; McLelland et aI., 1988; McLelland and Chiarenzelli, 1990; Mezger et al., 1991; McLelland et at, 1996) higb-grade metamorphic rocks in northern New York state. This field trip will examine granulite-facies metaplutonic rocks (McLelland and Isachsen, 1986) in the Adirondack Highlands which comprise the central and eastern portions of the massif. An abrupt transition in topography occurs between the Adirondack Highlands and the Lake Champlain Valley between New York and Vermont with local relief along Lake Champlain varying from -170 to 370 m.

  • Lake Champlain Lake Sturgeon Recovery Plan
    Acknowledgements This project was paid for in part by fishing license sales and matching Dingell-Johnson/Wallop Breaux funds available through the Federal Sportfish Restoration Act. Additional funding was provided through the State Wildlife Grant Program. I’d like to thank the many people that made this plan possible. Special thanks to Angelo Incerpi, retired fisheries director for the Vermont Department of Fish and Wildlife, who gave me an opportunity to work with this unique fish and Dave Ravelin, a private landowner along the Winooski River, who allowed us to use his property as a staging area, saving hundreds of hours of travel time to and from sampling sites. Thanks to Michel LaHaye, who travelled from Quebec to Vermont to share his knowledge on sturgeon spawning habitat and the techniques used to collect lake sturgeon eggs and Micah Kiefer from the Conte Anadromous Research Lab (USGS) for demonstrating the surgical techniques used to implant tags in sturgeon. Many people within the department, both permanent and temporary employees, should be acknowledged for their help on the project, including but not limited to John Claussen, Rich Kirn, Eric Palmer, Shawn Good, Dave Gibson, Joel Flewelling, Jill Oudman, Steve Doyle, Joe Burt, Andy Edmunds, Ryan Smith, Jon Piper, Jason Kain, Andy Edmunds, Jay Seals, and Stephanie Pierce. Special thanks to Madeleine Lyttle and Nick Staats of the USFWS for helping with the surveys in the Lamoille and Winooski rivers and in particular the sampling for adults and eggs in the Missisquoi River. Without the help of all the people listed above the project would not have been successful.

He spent the most precious time of the season in prepa(atory works which were not imperative. When he was ready to launch the attack, the season appeared too advanced, and he had to postpone the attempt. He had JUSt the time to sound the outworks of lsle-aux-Noix, up St. Johns on the Richelieu River.* Along the road leading from Fort Edward to the head of Lake George he managed to have opened a wide gap on each side, so that his army might travel in. open field without the slightest danger of ambush, and to have fortified posts at intervals of three or four miles. His move was delayed by the completion of these works. It was July 2. I before his flotilla of barges could enter Lake George. The anny he was proceeding with outnumbered four to one the forcf;s headed by his opponent Bourlamaque. The latter had been given orders to blow up Fans Carillon and St. Frederic, if they were to, be besieged by too far superior forces. This he did in the night July 2.6 for Carillon, and in the morning July 31 for St.
