In general, the soils underneath the Greenway tend to be gravelly or silty clay loam. The entire trail is fairly level, with the majority of slopes being less than five percent. A complete, narrative description of the soils can be found in Appendix F Natural Resources Flora A complete biological inventory of Greenway property is not presently available (October 2013). However, SUNY Geneseo botany students began to inventory flora within sections of the corridor. The New York State Natural Heritage Program has targeted the GVG for a Natural Heritage inventory in 2014.

  • Federal Fiscal Year 2010 (October 1, 2009 Through September 30, 2010)
    GENESEE TRANSPORTATION COUNCIL Annual Listing of Federally Obligated Projects for Federal Fiscal Year 2010 (October 1, 2009 through September 30, 2010) Purpose Federal regulations require an “Annual Listing” of transportation projects, including investments in pedestrian walkways and bicycle facilities, for which federal funds have been obligated in the preceding year be made available for public review by the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO). The listing must be consistent with the funding categories identified in the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP). In order to meet this requirement, Genesee Transportation Council (GTC) staff solicited information from the New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) and the Rochester Genesee Regional Transportation Authority (RGRTA), and compiled a list of projects located in the seven-county NYSDOT – Region 4 area for which federal transportation funds were obligated in Federal Fiscal Year (FFY) 2010 (i.e., between October 1, 2009 and September 30, 2010). An obligation is the U.S. Department of Transportation's legal commitment to pay the federal share of a project's cost. Projects for which funds have been obligated are not necessarily initiated or completed in a given program year, and the amount of the obligation in a single year will not necessarily equal the total cost of the project. Background The U.S. Department of Transportation requires every metropolitan area with a population over 50,000 to have a designated MPO to qualify for receipt of federal highway and public transportation funds. The Governor of New York State designated GTC as the MPO responsible for transportation planning in the nine-county Genesee-Finger Lakes region, which includes Genesee, Livingston, Monroe, Ontario, Orleans, Seneca, Wayne, Wyoming, and Yates counties.

  • Federal Fiscal Year 2012 (October 1, 2011 Through September 30, 2012)
    GENESEE TRANSPORTATION COUNCIL Annual Listing of Federally Obligated Projects for Federal Fiscal Year 2012 (October 1, 2011 through September 30, 2012) Purpose Federal regulations require an “Annual Listing” of transportation projects, including investments in pedestrian walkways and bicycle facilities, for which federal funds have been obligated in the preceding year be made available for public review by the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO). The listing must be consistent with the funding categories identified in the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP). In order to meet this requirement, Genesee Transportation Council (GTC) staff solicited information from the New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) and the Rochester Genesee Regional Transportation Authority (RGRTA), and compiled a list of projects located in the seven-county NYSDOT – Region 4 area for which federal transportation funds were obligated in Federal Fiscal Year (FFY) 2012 (i.e., between October 1, 2011 and September 30, 2012). An obligation is the U.S. Department of Transportation's legal commitment to pay the federal share of a project's cost. Projects for which funds have been obligated are not necessarily initiated or completed in a given program year, and the amount of the obligation in a single year will not necessarily equal the total cost of the project. Background The U.S. Department of Transportation requires every metropolitan area with a population over 50,000 to have a designated MPO to qualify for receipt of federal highway and public transportation funds. The Governor of New York State designated GTC as the MPO responsible for transportation planning in the nine-county Genesee-Finger Lakes region, which includes Genesee, Livingston, Monroe, Ontario, Orleans, Seneca, Wayne, Wyoming, and Yates counties.
