  • LOCAL IMPACTS and COSTS Exhibit IX. A.2.B Traffic and Roadway
    LOCAL IMPACTS AND COSTS Exhibit IX. A.2.b The proposed Resorts World Hudson Valley is a mixed use development that will incorporate a 600‐room hotel with a full‐service gaming facility and a conference center, along with associated, complementary amenities on an approximate 373‐acre site. Potential impacts include those to traffic and noise, watershed impacts from stormwater and wastewater discharge, and hydrologic impacts to surface waters and wetlands. The design for Resorts World Hudson Valley has been developed in conjunction with LEED® measures to minimize impacts to the greatest extent possible. Where impacts cannot be avoided, RW Orange County LLC has developed a cohesive mitigation strategy as detailed in Exhibit IX.A.3 Mitigation of Impact to Host Municipality and Nearby Municipalities. Traffic and Roadway Infrastructure Preliminary Transportation Demand Impacts Development of the proposed Resorts World Hudson Valley would generate substantial numbers of new vehicular trips by auto, taxi and bus on the roadway system providing access to the project site. The majority of these trips (approximately 90 percent) would arrive and depart via I‐84, with Route 17K, Route 747 and Route 207 providing local access. Most vehicles destined to/from I‐84 would use the I‐84/Route 747 interchange located immediately to the southeast of the project site which was designed to accommodate future demand from expanded use of the nearby Stewart International Airport. As this airport demand has not been realized, the I‐84/Route 747 interchange typically functions with available capacity during peak periods. A new signalized intersection on Route 17K and a new roundabout on Route 747 would provide access to the proposed project’s internal roadway system.

We work throughout the Hudson River watershed to support community-based watershed groups, help municipalities work together on water issues, and serve as a collective voice across the region. We are a collaborative network of community groups, organizations, municipalities, agencies, and individuals. The Hudson River Watershed Alliance hosts educational and capacity-building events, including the Annual Watershed Conference to share key information and promote networking, Watershed Roundtables to bring groups together to share strategies, workshops to provide trainings, and a breakfast lecture series that focuses on technical and scientific innovations. We provide technical and strategic assistance on watershed work, including fostering new initiatives and helping sustain groups as they meet new challenges. What is a watershed group? A watershed is the area of land from which water drains into a river, stream, or other waterbody. Water flows off the land into a waterbody by way of rivers and streams, and underground through groundwater aquifers. The smaller streams that contribute to larger rivers are called tributaries. Watersheds are defined by the lay of the land, with mountains and hills typically forming their borders.

DEGELE I.. Approved: Major Professor Acknowledged: Director Howard H. Foster, Jr. ABSTRACT This report presents a development impact assessment methodology for an analysis of development possibilities in a rural area. The methodology was used to determine conclusive statements about the Rock Cut Road study area in the Town of Newburgh in Orange County, New York with which to base recommendations for growth management. The methodology involved (1) the examination of existing conditions of an area such as the degree and type of existing development, zoning limitations, and environmental sensitivities; (2) the development of various development scenarios; (3) the disaggregation of development impacts into several distinct impacts relative to each scenario; (4) the projection of their relative effects on existing conditions; and (5) the comparison of each scenario within the existing conditions.
