Sustain What? Preparing Our Students by Greening Our Campuses
10th Annual Conference Sustain What? Preparing our Students by Greening our Campuses November 8–9, 2013 Pace University 861 Bedford Road Pleasantville, NY, 10570 Pace Academy for Applied Environmental Studies About the Environmental Consortium The Environmental Consortium of Colleges & Universities was established in 2004 to advance our understanding of the cultural, social, political, economic and natural factors affecting the region. By promoting collaboration among its members, the Consortium works to provide ecosystem-based curricular and co-curricular programming aimed at improving the health of the regional ecosystem. The mission of the Environmental Consortium is to harness higher education’s intellectual and physical resources to advance regional, ecosystem-based environmental research, teaching, and learning with a special emphasis on the greater Hudson-Mohawk River watershed. Spearheaded and hosted by Pace University, the Consortium’s headquarters is situated within the Pace Academy for Applied Environmental Studies in Pleasantville, New York. Among Pace Academy’s stated goals is to externally apply the university’s strengths to local and global environmental problems. As a testament to its commitment to interdisciplinary pedagogy, scholarship and service, the Academy provides essential administrative support that grounds the Consortium’s programs. www.environmentalconsortium.org Photos William McGrath, Pace University's Senior Vice David Hales, President, Second Nature delivered President and Chief Administrative Officer the opening keynote and spoke about living welcomed attendees and discussed Pace's sustainably in the future climate. ambitious Master Plan.

Distribution of Ddt, Chlordane, and Total Pcb's in Bed Sediments in the Hudson River Basin
NYES&E, Vol. 3, No. 1, Spring 1997 DISTRIBUTION OF DDT, CHLORDANE, AND TOTAL PCB'S IN BED SEDIMENTS IN THE HUDSON RIVER BASIN Patrick J. Phillips1, Karen Riva-Murray1, Hannah M. Hollister2, and Elizabeth A. Flanary1. 1U.S. Geological Survey, 425 Jordan Road, Troy NY 12180. 2Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences, Troy NY 12180. Abstract Data from streambed-sediment samples collected from 45 sites in the Hudson River Basin and analyzed for organochlorine compounds indicate that residues of DDT, chlordane, and PCB's can be detected even though use of these compounds has been banned for 10 or more years. Previous studies indicate that DDT and chlordane were widely used in a variety of land use settings in the basin, whereas PCB's were introduced into Hudson and Mohawk Rivers mostly as point discharges at a few locations. Detection limits for DDT and chlordane residues in this study were generally 1 µg/kg, and that for total PCB's was 50 µg/kg. Some form of DDT was detected in more than 60 percent of the samples, and some form of chlordane was found in about 30 percent; PCB's were found in about 33 percent of the samples. Median concentrations for p,p’- DDE (the DDT residue with the highest concentration) were highest in samples from sites representing urban areas (median concentration 5.3 µg/kg) and lower in samples from sites in large watersheds (1.25 µg/kg) and at sites in nonurban watersheds. (Urban watershed were defined as those with a population density of more than 60/km2; nonurban watersheds as those with a population density of less than 60/km2, and large watersheds as those encompassing more than 1,300 km2. -

Hudson River Oil Spill Risk Assessment
Hudson River Oil Spill Risk Assessment Volume 4: Spill Consequences: Trajectory, Fate and Resource Exposure Prepared for Scenic Hudson, Inc. One Civic Center Plaza Suite 200 Poughkeepsie, NY 12601-3157 Prepared by Dagmar Schmidt Etkin, PhD Environmental Research Consulting 41 Croft Lane Cortlandt Manor, NY 10567-1160 Deborah French McCay, PhD Jill Rowe and Deborah Crowley RPS 55 Village Square Drive South Kingstown, RI 02879-8248 John Joeckel SEAConsult LLC P. O. Box 243 Wachapreague, VA 23310-0243 Andy Wolford, PhD Risknology, Inc. 3218 Quiet Lake Drive Katy, TX 77450-5721 May 2018 Acknowledgments This project was commissioned by Scenic Hudson, Inc., of Poughkeepsie, New York, under a Professional Services Contract with Environmental Research Consulting (ERC). RPS ASA, SEAConsult LLC, and Risknology, Inc., were all subcontractors to ERC under separate contracts. The HROSRA research team acknowledges the invaluable inputs and discussions with Scenic Hudson over the course of the study period (September 2017 through May 2018), including the selection and development of the hypothetical spill scenarios. The contents of the report, data, analyses, findings, and conclusions are solely the responsibility of the research team and do not constitute any official position by Scenic Hudson. The Hudson River Oil Spill Risk Assessment was conducted as an independent, objective, technical analysis without any particular agenda or viewpoint except to provide quantitative and qualitative information that could be used to work to a common goal of spill prevention and preparedness. The study is intended to inform officials, decision-makers, stakeholders, and the general public about oil spill risk in the Hudson River. The diligent efforts of the RPS SIMAP modeling team of Deborah Crowley, Jenna Ducharme, Matt Frediani, Emily Skeehan, and Matt Bernardo provided the necessary data, results, maps, and graphics that formed the foundation of much of the analysis in the HROSRA. -

Town of Bethlehem Open Space Plan: Conservation Criteria Implementation
Town of Bethlehem Open Space Plan: Conservation Criteria Implementation December 2017 FINAL Prepared by: Bethlehem Department of Economic Development and Planning, and M.J. Engineering and Land Surveying, P.C., with support from the Conservation Easement Review Board 1 Executive Summary Open space conservation planning has been a topic of discussion in Bethlehem for over a decade, and has been a focus of numerous committees, meetings, focus groups and written reports. A consistent recommendation found in these efforts, from the 2005 Comprehensive Plan to the 2014 Open Space Program Resolution, has been the development of conservation criteria to evaluate conservation opportunities when they arise. As a result, in February 2017 the town hired M.J. Engineering and Land Surveying, P.C. (MJ) to assist the town planning department in the development of conservation criteria and ultimately, this open space plan. This open space plan document describes how the town first developed four open space conservation values maps; then a list of 25 conservation criteria; and finally, a GIS-based conservation analysis tool to inform ongoing current and future open space conservation tools in town. With the assistance of the Conservation Easement Review Board the following was prepared: 1. An updated, town-wide open space inventory and database, as illustrated in four Open Space Conservation Values Maps: a. Community Character b. Recreation and Greenways c. Forests, Fields and Wildlife Ecosystems d. Natural Water systems: Streams, Wetlands and the Hudson River 2. A list of data-driven Conservation Criteria (25) with which to evaluate open space land for its conservation values. 3. -
