  • 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.

  • Community Character
    Chapter 5: Community Character 5-1 INTRODUCTION This chapter evaluates the potential impacts of the Tappan Zee Hudson River Crossing Project related to land use, zoning, public policy, neighborhood character, and community facilities and services. Because the project would replace and continue an existing use, and the majority of work would occur within the existing Interstate 87/287 right-of-way and the Hudson River, potential adverse impacts would be primarily short- term during construction (see Chapter 18, “Construction Impacts”). Therefore, this chapter evaluates whether the operation of the project would adversely alter community character, or affect operation and functionality of any community facilities and services. This chapter also analyzes the compatibility of the project with local zoning ordinances, and other applicable local or regional public policy documents. As part of this analysis, future development plans and anticipated public policy actions that would affect land use and development trends in the study area are described herein. As discussed below, the community character of the study area is currently shaped by the presence of the Tappan Zee Bridge. Since the Replacement Bridge Alternative would maintain a similar alignment to the existing bridge, and would ensure the functionality of this integral regional transportation corridor, the following analysis does not identify any adverse community character impacts related to the project. 5-2 REGULATORY CONTEXT Guidance for consideration of the project’s impacts on community character is derived from FHWA’s Environmental Review Toolkit, Land Use and Transportation Coordination: Lessons Learned from the Domestic Scan Tour (FHWA, 2004), Visualization in Transportation (American Association of State Highway Transportation Officials [AASHTO], 2003), and the New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) Project Development Manual.
