  • 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.

  • Portsmouth DUF6 Conversion Final EIS
    Affected Environment 3-1 Portsmouth DUF6 Conversion Final EIS 3 AFFECTED ENVIRONMENT This EIS considers the proposed action of building and operating a conversion facility at the Portsmouth site for conversion of the Portsmouth and ETTP DUF6 cylinder inventories. Section 3.1 presents a detailed description of the affected environment for the Portsmouth site. Because the option of shipping cylinders from the ETTP site in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, to the Portsmouth site for conversion is part of the proposed action, a detailed description of the affected environment for the ETTP site is provided in Section 3.2. 3.1 PORTSMOUTH SITE The Portsmouth site is located in Pike County, Ohio, approximately 22 mi (35 km) north of the Ohio River and 3 mi (5 km) southeast of the town of Piketon (Figure 3.1-1). The two largest cities in the vicinity are Chillicothe, located 26 mi (42 km) north of the site, and Portsmouth, 22 mi (35 km) south. The Portsmouth site includes the Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion Plant (PORTS), a gaseous diffusion plant previously operated first by DOE and then by USEC. Uranium enrichment operations at PORTS were discontinued in May 2001, and the plant has been placed in cold standby, a nonoperational condition in which the plant retains the ability to resume operations within 18 to 24 months (DOE 2001c). The Portsmouth site occupies 3,714 acres (1,500 ha) of land, with an 800-acre (320-ha) fenced core area that contains the former production facilities. The 2,914 acres (1,180 ha) outside the core area includes restricted buffers, waste management areas, plant management and administrative facilities, gaseous diffusion plant support facilities, and vacant land (Martin Marietta Energy Systems, Inc.

  • Building Better Parks: Update on NY Parks 2020 Progress (Pdf)
    BUILDING BETTER PARKS Update on NY Parks 2020 Progress LEADING THE NATION ON PARKS Niagara Falls State Park Dedication Letchworth Nature Center Dedication Jones Beach State Park West Bathhouse Dedication century ago, New York State built a park system that became the model A for the nation – a system that celebrated nature and gave people of all income levels a place to enjoy it. This system of parks, assembled with great vision and ambition, was a great gift to the people that was to last for the ages. Unfortunately, as time passed we did not fully appreciate the gift. It was our responsibility as citizens to preserve it and protect it and pass it on to our children, and we had not done that. From the outset of my administration in 2011, we have worked to reverse the trend of deteriorating parks. We launched NY Parks 2020, a $900 million multi-year commitment to restore the park system. This is an investment in a system unique in the nation. We are bringing back the grandeur bestowed on us, while improving our tourism economy. It’s an important investment and it’s one that we’re going to be proud to pass on to our children. Governor Andrew M. Cuomo NY PARKS 2020: $900 million to revitalize New York State Parks 176 Parks Improved and Counting 300 New Cabins and Cottages 30 New Nature and Jones Beach State Park Nature Center Cultural Centers 72 New and Improved Playgrounds 90 New and Improved Bathrooms 700 Infrastructure Allegany State Park Letchworth State Park Projects The Governor has made the protection of land and parks a hallmark of his tenure.
