  • A-4 Glacial Geology of the Erie Lowland and Adjoining Allegheny Plateau, Western New York
    A-4 GLACIAL GEOLOGY OF THE ERIE LOWLAND AND ADJOINING ALLEGHENY PLATEAU, WESTERN NEW YORK PARKER E. CALKIN - Department of Geological Sciences, State University of New York, Buffalo, NY 14226 GEOMORPHIC SETTING The Allegheny section of the Appalachian Plateau (Allegheny Plateau) in western New York may be divided into three physiographic areas; from the Pennsylvania border northward, these include: 1) the high and rugged, unglaciated Salamanca Re-entrant, south of the Allegheny River; 2) the glaciated southern New York Uplands with rounded summits and a network of 11 through valleys 11 and breached drainage divides (Cole, 1941; Muller, 1963); and 3) the Erie County portion north of the east-west Cattaraugus Valley. This area is furrowed by deep parallel north-trending troughs separated by broad interfluves and strongly developed to accommodate glacier flow (Donahue, 1972, Calkin and Muller, 1980). Bordering on the west and north, respectively, are the Erie and Ontario lowlands blanketed by glaciolacustrine and ice contact drift, and traversed by subdued, waterlaid end moraines. The Erie County portion of the plateau and the Lake Erie Lowland are the areas spanned by the accompanying field trip log (Fig. 1). At the close of Paleozoic sedimentation in the Appalachian geosyn­ cline (see Frontispiece I) and prior to glaciation, the area underwent epeirogenic uplift and gentle southward tilting of about 8 m km-• (40 ft 1 mi- • Initial southward consequent drainage on this surface was even­ tually reversed to a northwesterly obsequent system and episodic uplift resulted in deep entrenchment of these north-flowing rivers (Calkin and Muller, 1980). The most prom inent drainage lines headed south of the present Cattaraugus Valley and included from west to east: 1) the preglacial Allegheny, flowing westward past the Salamanca Re-entrant and northward through Gowanda to Lake Erie along the path of the present Conewango and lower Cattaraugus valley (Ellis, 1980; Frontispiece II); 2) the Connisarauley and 3) the Buttermilk rivers (LaFleur, 1979; D.

    Akron Falls Park EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1.0 Introduction..................................................... 2 2.0 Overall System Recommendations.............. 3 3.0 Park Specific Recommendations................. 8 4.0 Waterfront Access and Trailways................. 10 11 5.0 Conclusion..................................................... 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY FINAL PLAN EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1.0 INTRODUCTION Erie County’s nearly 10,000 acre Park System represents a diverse collection of natural resources, historic structures, and unique places within the Western New York Region. When the County Parks System was established in 1925, there were initially four parks. Now, almost 100 years later, the system is comprised of 40 sites throughout the County, and provides something for everyone from recreational sports fields to cascading waterfalls, hiking trails, biking pathways, sitting and relaxing in nature, wildlife observing, and much more. The County Parks System providing some of the most popular places to sled, cross- country-ski and ice-skate throughout the winter season. Each season of the year presents great opportunities for the public to enjoy the diverse park settings. The Erie County Parks Master Plan Update, which was initiated in 2016, is primarily focused on the preservation, enhancement, and improvement of the existing system assets and landscape setting. Previous County Parks Master Plans were completed approximately in 15 year intervals, the last one in 2003. The planning process consisted of public consultation, stakeholder meetings with over 65 local groups and agencies, a parks user survey, numerous Historic photograph of Chestnut Ridge Park meetings, and work sessions. Physical assessment included inventory of all notable assets within the MISSION STATEMENT County’s heritage parks, and many site visits during different times of the year.

    Floristics and Environmental Planning in Western New York and Adjacent Ontario: Distribution of Legally Protected Plants and Plant Sanctuaries RICHARD H. ZANDER Curator of Botany, Buffalo Museum of Science, Buffalo, New York 14211 Occasional Papers of the Buffalo Society of Natural Sciences No. 1 Buffalo, N.Y. 1976 The author thanks Dr. Robert Andrle, Associate Director of the Buffalo Museum of Science, for critically reviewing the manuscript. Cover photograph by Sheldon Memtt of the Buffalo Audubon Society. Uncommon aberrant fonns of Trillium grandiflorum; the upper plant approaches fonna 'Yiride, with green petals almost leaf­ like in texture, while the lower is near forma striatum, with broad, green stripes on the petals.

Wetland species are well represented in sanctuaries, but calciphilic species are not. Minor political districts are ranked by richness in numbers of species, especially those of restricted habitat. Botanically significant areas are listed. iv Floristics and En,ironmental Planning CONSERVATION AND PLANT MAPPING This publication is primarily intended for persons concerned with environmental planning and conservation. Analysis of the known distribution of plant species by the compilation of "dot maps" enables areas of species richness, diversity, and habitat restriction to be dis­ tinguished.

    What are the goals of the plan? D Town of Aurora Map 1 The ultimate goal of the open space plan is to protect about 1,500 acres of open space from development in perpetuity. The Our Goal: Doubling Protected Land specific aims are: • to provide the Town with a long-range vision for open 7%7% space protection; 7% • to inform the public about ways in which open space preservation benefits the community; • to identify parcels of land with high open space value; • to develop a program for protecting land with a variety of conservation tools; and 86% • to identify funding sources for land protection. Achieving these aims will go a long way towards preserving goal of additional protected acreage: 1,500 natural resources, maintaining the rural ambiance of the Town, Acreage currently protected: 1, 529 and ensuring that Main Street in the Village of East Aurora contin- Unprotected Acreage: 17,462 ues to be a vibrant economic center. WHAT HAS BEEN DONE SO FAR? ENVIRONMENTAL FEATURES OF THE TOWN The Open Space Committee has reviewed the Regional Comprehensive Plan5 and researched the methods of land The total area of the Town of Aurora is 20,756 acres. Of this protection used in other communities in New York State (for area, only 1,529 acres (7%) is land that is already protected from example, the towns of Clarence and Pittsford) and throughout development. This includes 1,294 acres of municipal parks and the country.6 The committee also hired John Behan, a statewide 235 acres protected by the Genesee Valley Conservancy, a land expert on open space planning, to review its preliminary plans and trust7 headquartered in Geneseo.
