  • There Are No Long-Term Local Or Regional Economic Impacts Anticipated Due to These Relocations
    Draft Environmental Impact Statement Section IV.B There are no long-term local or regional economic impacts anticipated due to these relocations. NYSDOT Real Estate staff conducted a Conceptual Stage Relocation Plan to determine the availability of adequate replacement sites. The complete relocation plan can be found in Appendix H. Based on this analysis, sufficient available residential and commercial properties exist on the market to accommodate these relocations. There are no highway construction or other projects by any public or private agency scheduled that would affect the availability of replacement property. It is estimated that the relocations on this project can be accomplished within one year from the date of vesting. B.3. Environmental Consequences This section describes the impacts of each of the Build Alternatives on the natural environment, including water resources, wildlife habitat, parks, air quality, noise levels, cultural resources, and contaminated materials. B.3.a. Surface Waters/Wetlands This section discusses the inter-related topics of surface waters, wetlands, coastal zone resources, navigable waters, and floodplains. The descriptions of the No Build and Build Alternatives presented below are relevant to several of the environmental discussions that follow. No Build Alternative The No Build Alternative would make no physical or operational improvements to the Kosciuszko Bridge, but would continue NYSDOT’s existing maintenance program. There would be little change to existing conditions in the study area, and no fill or excavation would take place in Newtown Creek. Alternatives RA-5 and RA-6 During construction, up to six temporary pile-supported staging platforms would be constructed in Newtown Creek and remain in place until the end of the construction period.

  • NYS OSP Appendix F
    e-Appendix F – ASSESSMENT OF PUBLIC COMMENT e-Appendix F ASSESSMENT OF PUBLIC COMMENT ON THE 2014 DRAFT PLAN In 2013, DEC and OPRHP began the process of updating the 2009 Plan, asking the Regional Advisory Committees for recommendations. These suggestions and other public comments received since the publication of the 2009 Plan were evaluated, along with changes in the law, regulations and the Agencies' programs, to prepare a revised Plan. The Draft Plan was made available for public comment beginning on September 17, 2014 and ending on December 17, 2014. A statewide set of public hearings and workshops on the documents served to answer questions and receive comments. Public comments were received via the public hearings, mail, E-mail and through DEC's website established for the Open Space Conservation Plan (www.dec.ny.gov/lands/98720.html). A total of 462 people and organizations commented on the Draft Plan. A list of the commenters is included in e-Appendix G. The State open space conservation plan outlines a series of policy and program recommendations to enhance efforts that are on-going in New York State to advance Open space conservation at the state and local level with the many partners that are involved in this effort. Open space conservation provides multiple benefits: it helps sustain economically important sectors including agriculture, forestry, outdoor recreation and tourism; provides habitat for wildlife; protects water and air quality, ecosystems and endangered species; provides the basis for outdoor recreational activities, improves surrounding property values and community attractiveness, and in this era of rapid climate change, helps improve resilience to communities and private land owners.

  • Engineering Paradise the History of the Jerome Park Reservoir
    ENGINEERING PARADISE – THE HISTORY OF THE JEROME PARK RESERVOIR COMMUNITY The community that developed on the ridge around the Jerome Park Reservoir and Van Cortlandt Park should be thankful for the early pioneers who found a grand vision on the land we call home. Looking at an old map, one could only imagine what it looked like, how the landscaped developed, and other things for the interested mind. In what could only be describe as the growth of the conservationist environmentalist era, two men, John B. Jervis (1775-1885) and Frederick L. Olmstead (1822-1903), had a great influence on development in the country, state, and city. For our area, their foresight and talent had no bounds. But it took fifty years of planning and building. Surveying streets cut out of the same topography with curves instead of straight lines (1876). Building railroads to go north by the “country” (1880). Connecting parks for the enjoyment of the new settlers (1884), and by discovering that the land at Van Cortlandt Estate was much more beautiful and natural than Central Park (1888). When there was not enough water for the thirsty city, by adding the New Croton Aqueduct to the Old Croton Aqueduct system to enable growth (1890). By opening the first municipal golf course for recreation in Van Cortlandt Park (1895). Importantly, knowing to choose the site of the old Jerome Park Race Track as the site for a reservoir because it was on the high ridge, on an area with soft ground for ease in digging, and topographically configured to enable gravity to continue to bring water to a thirsty city (1906).

NEIGHBORHOOD/PLAN BACKGROUND The Jerome Park neighborhood is a thriving residential with a large, diverse population, and many culturally and historically significant landmarks. It is located in the Northwest corner of the Bronx. There are several major schools in the area including DeWitt Clinton High School, Bronx High School of Science, and Hunter College (now Lehman College), with 25,000 students attending school around the reservoir. The Kingsbridge Armory, another historic building, is also located near the reservoir. The Jerome Park area was originally designed by renowned landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted. A proposal in the mid-1990s by the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) to construct the Croton Water Treatment Plant on the Jerome Park Reservoir fueled renewed interest in revitalizing the area. Residents believed that the plant would have destroyed the environment, scenic value, and historical significance of the area, as well as jeopardized the health and quality of life of residents and students. GOALS OF PLAN The Jerome Park Conservancy was formed to preserve the beauty and heritage of Jerome Park Reservoir and its surrounding communities by the creation of a 125-acre park comprised of the water and the land around it.
