  • Appendices Section
    APPENDIX 1. A Selection of Biodiversity Conservation Agencies & Programs A variety of state agencies and programs, in addition to the NY Natural Heritage Program, partner with OPRHP on biodiversity conservation and planning. This appendix also describes a variety of statewide and regional biodiversity conservation efforts that complement OPRHP’s work. NYS BIODIVERSITY RESEARCH INSTITUTE The New York State Biodiversity Research Institute is a state-chartered organization based in the New York State Museum who promotes the understanding and conservation of New York’s biological diversity. They administer a broad range of research, education, and information transfer programs, and oversee a competitive grants program for projects that further biodiversity stewardship and research. In 1996, the Biodiversity Research Institute approved funding for the Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation to undertake an ambitious inventory of its lands for rare species, rare natural communities, and the state’s best examples of common communities. The majority of inventory in state parks occurred over a five-year period, beginning in 1998 and concluding in the spring of 2003. Funding was also approved for a sixth year, which included all newly acquired state parks and several state parks that required additional attention beyond the initial inventory. Telephone: (518) 486-4845 Website: www.nysm.nysed.gov/bri/ NYS DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION The Department of Environmental Conservation’s (DEC) biodiversity conservation efforts are handled by a variety of offices with the department. Of particular note for this project are the NY Natural Heritage Program, Endangered Species Unit, and Nongame Unit (all of which are in the Division of Fish, Wildlife, & Marine Resources), and the Division of Lands & Forests.

  • Conservation Plan for Grassland Birds in New York
    A Plan for Conserving Grassland Birds in New York: Final Report to the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation under contract #C005137 Michael Morgan and Michael Burger Audubon New York 10 June 2008 Audubon New York 159 Sapsucker Woods Rd. Ithaca, NY 14850 (607) 254-2487 or [email protected] 1 Support The funding for the planning process and the creation of this document, which describes the foundation for grassland bird conservation in New York and provides direction for future efforts, has been provided by a contract from the Department of Environmental Conservation (C005137). Funds for the contract originated as a Tier 1 grant from the USFWS State Wildlife Grants Program. Many partnering agencies are contributing to the coordinated grassland bird conservation effort in New York, and are listed as partners in this plan. The following individuals have either contributed to the development of various components of the plan, or supported its development through review of draft materials or participation in discussions, and this support is greatly appreciated. Thanks to Jeff Bolsinger, Chris Dobony, Peter Gibbs, Mitch Hartley, Paul Hess, Sheila Hess, Tom Jasikoff, Heidi Kennedy, Chris Lajewski, Mike Murphy, Paul Novak, Dave Odell, Ray Perry, Tim Post, Marcelo del Puerto, Chris Reidy, Ron Rohrbaugh, Ken Rosenberg, Paul Salon, Carl Schwartz, Shanna Shaw, Gerry Smith, Bryan Swift, Mike Townsend, and Maiken Winter, among others. Our apologies to anyone that we’ve failed to mention. 2 Executive Summary • Grassland birds have been declining faster than any other habitat-species suite in the northeastern United States. The primary cause of these declines is abandonment of agricultural lands, causing habitat loss due to reversion to later successional stages or due to sprawl development.

  • The State of the State Outdoor Recreation System
    Appendix A Appendix A: The State of the State Outdoor Recreation System The “heart and soul” of the State’s outdoor recreation system is not the facilities or activities but its natural and cultural resources. Care and stewardship of these resources must be maintained and fostered. If these resources are lost so is the quality of the recreational experience which is the system’s primary attribute. The public will not come to swim at our lakes and ocean, or hike the trails if the environmental quality of the resources is impaired. The Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation and the Department of Environmental Conservation are the two primary state agencies that manage land resources and provide recreational opportunities. The Canal Corporation, Department of Transportation and Office of General Services are also land managers. The mission of the Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation (OPRHP) is to provide safe and enjoyable recreational and interpretive opportunities for all New York State residents and visitors and to be responsible stewards of our valuable natural, historic and cultural resources. Within this capacity OPRHP manages the State Park System that includes state parks and historic sites. The Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation Law also provides for a State Council of Parks and Recreation as an advisory body and the creation of the State Board for Historic Preservation. The board provides advisory services and acts as the federally mandated review body in the nomination of sites for listing on federal and state registers of historic places. In addition, the law divides New York State into 12 park regions, 11 under the jurisdiction of OPRHP and 1 administered by DEC.
