    State of the Saw Mill River Watershed 2019 Westchester County, NY

    State of the Saw Mill River Watershed 2019 Westchester County, NY A Report to the Saw Mill River Watershed Advisory Board, The New York State Hudson River Estuary Program and the Westchester Community Foundation from Groundwork Hudson Valley in partnership with the Center for the Urban River at Beczak, Sarah Lawrence College. PURPOSE OF THE REPORT This 2019 document draws together information about the Saw Mill River and its current state: basic statistics, water quality, flora and fauna, recreation, wetlands, urbanization, flood control projects, local flooded areas, restoration efforts, and the municipal-stakeholder collaboration that works together on watershed management. The basics regarding how healthy rivers function are included under the sections titled “River Primer” which hopefully will provide an understanding of how alterations of the Saw Mill River have compromised those functions.* While the New York State’s Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) and Westchester County consider the Saw Mill a priority watershed, it will be local leadership and stewardship that are the key to watershed improvement. This document welcomes public review and updates so that it reflects local knowledge and experience. With a common understanding of these issues, upstream and downstream, municipal leaders and people who work and live in the watershed will be in a position to make decisions that improve, protect, and restore the river. *Reference: Stream Processes-A Guide to Living in Harmony with Streams, Chemung Soil and Water Conservation District in Horseheads, NY 2 STATE OF THE SAW MILL RIVER WATERSHED I 2019 WESTCHESTER COUNTY, NY TABLE OF CONTENTS Purpose of the Report ............................................................ 2 The Setting ...........................................................................
