The Boreas tract is a 20,578 acre parcel recently purchased in the town of North Hudson on the edge of the High Peaks wilderness. It is the last of a multi-year process of transition to New York State ownership of 69,000 acres of the former Finch Pruyn lands.

  • General History
    General History 4/1/1839 (H&SG) The Adirondack Railroad Co. was organized with $100,000 capitol. It was to connect the Adirondack Iron Works with Clear Pond. Nothing was ever done. [I don't think this company is related to the following ones.] 3/7/1848 (Senate Document #39) "Report of The Railroad Committee on The Petition for a Railroad From Sackett's Harbor to Saratoga." "...the petitioners solicit the grant of a date to construct a railroad from Sackett's Harbor up the Black river to its source - thence along the east branch of West Canada Creek to the Sacandaga River, and down it to some point near Saratoga Springs." "...allowing for curvatures it is estimated at 140 miles." 4/10/1848 (H&SG) The Sackets Harbor & Saratoga Railroad was organized with $2,000,000 capitol. It was to connect the two towns of its name and tap the iron mines at Sanford Lake. It was only partially graded from Saratoga. [ A map of this period shows the proposed line following the same path as the present line.] (H&SG, 1873, p. 149*) After incorporation in 1848, the company was organized on January 10, 1852. (Senate Document #55, 1884) When the railroad was organized in 1848, they were required to pay New York State $5,000 to have the right to select any quantity of land up to 250,000 acres within the next three years. They had three years to commence work and ten years to complete the line or the company was liable to be dissolved and its franchise forfeited.

  • Time Is Now for Creation of the Hudson River Bike Trail
    PRESS RELEASE November 20, 2019 Time is Now for Creation of the Hudson River Bike Trail A tremendous opportunity exists for the communities in the southern Adirondack Park to build what would be one of the great multi-use public recreation trails in New York and the eastern U.S. Protect the Adirondacks is advocating for the transition of the dormant 55- mile-long Saratoga and North Creek Railway to a public multiuse trail that would connect more than a dozen communities between Saratoga Springs and North Creek. More than 30 miles of this trail would be located along the Hudson River, where each bend in the river provides a different great view. For more information: Peter Bauer, Executive Director: Office 518.251-2700, Cell 518.796.0112 Hudson River Bike Trail Protect the Adirondacks supports transition of the 55-mile-long Saratoga and North Creek Railway to a new public multi-use recreation trail. Given its location, the dominant use would be as a bike and walking trail. This new public trail from Saratoga Springs to North Creek would connect dozens of small communities such as Lake Luzerne, Hadley, Stony Creek, Thurman, Riparius, The Glen, and Warrensburg, among other hamlets and businesses, along the rail line. We believe that this new trail would be very popular and heavily used. It could stimulate new opportunities for communities and businesses up and down its route. Running on the banks of the Hudson River for more than 30 miles, this trail would delight as one of the loveliest public trail systems in New York, bringing people through scene after scene of wild natural beauty.

  • Indian Point Unit 3 Revision 7 to Updated Final Safety Analysis
    IP3 FSAR UPDATE CHAPTER 2 SITE AND ENVIRONMENT 2.1 SUMMARY OF CONCLUSIONS This Chapter sets forth the site and environmental data which together formed the basis for many of the criteria for designing the facility and for evaluating the routine and accidental releases of radioactive liquids and gases to the environment. These data support the conclusion that there will be no undue risk to public health and safety due to plant operation. The strength of this conclusion rests with these data and the determinations (also included in this report) of several independent consultants, each speaking within a particular area of expertise - health physics, demography, geology, seismology, hydrology or meteorology, as the case may be. The task of evaluating the environmental characteristics of the area was facilitated by the fact that more than 12 years of studies and measurements of environmental characteristics were undertaken. For over twenty years, measurements have been made of the effects on the environment of releases from at least one operating nuclear power facility at the Indian Point Site. Conservative projections have been made of the growth of population in the area and these projections have been taken into account in plant design and operation as to control the effects of accidents. Population estimates are presented in subchapter 2.4. The census data for 1990 reveals that the population within a 10-mile radius of the site was approximately 238,043 whereas the 2000 estimated population is 564,200. The land is now zoned principally for residential and state park usage although there is some industrial activity and a little agricultural and grazing activity.

    New York State Department of Taxation and Finance New York State Communities Listed alphabetically with counties LONG OTIS NSFA LAKE LE LLS G Town of Buffalo SAND LAKE PLEASE City of DRIVE CAREFULLY South NEW ROCHELLE Welcome to City TROY Lockport of Home of Uncle Sam Malone Utica for New York State and local sales and use tax Publication 717 (9/99) Page 2 Publication 717 (9/99) Introduction The Tax Department has prepared this list of localities for the convenience of vendors who collect state and local sales tax throughout New York State. Localities are listed alphabetically, followed by the counties in which they are located (in parentheses), postal addresses if different from the locality names, and ZIP codes where available. ZIP codes are for mailing purposes only. Since there may be more than one locality in a ZIP code or more than one ZIP code in a locality, do not use ZIP codes to determine the local sales tax rate for any locality. For example, some Larchmont and Scarsdale mailing addresses are actually in the city of New Rochelle, and some Scarsdale mailing addresses are in the city of Yonkers. To determine the physical location of any property in question, check the street listings for New Rochelle (Publication 634) or Yonkers (Publication 647). These publications are available from the Tax Department, which has street listings for all cities that impose a local sales tax. To determine the combined state and local tax rate of the cities (or counties) that impose tax, ask for Publication 718, New York State and Local Sales Tax Rates by Community.
