Public Involvement PIN X735.82 Van Wyck Expressway Capacity and Access Improvements to JFK Airport Project DDR/DEIS CHAPTER 5 Public Involvement PIN X735.82 Van Wyck Expressway Capacity and Access Improvements to JFK Airport Project DDR/DEIS Public Involvement This chapter describes the public involvement process that has been developed and implemented for the Van Wyck Expressway Capacity and Access Improvements to JFK Airport Project (Project). Public involvement is an integral part of the National Environmental Policy Act process, and the Federal Highway Administration and New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) have provided and will continue to provide opportunities for meaningful public and agency participation and engagement in the Project. As described in Section 4.2.3 (Environmental Justice), the Study Area for the Project includes minority and/or low-income communities. Executive Order (EO) 12898 Federal Actions to Address Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and Low-Income Populations requires federal agencies to provide meaningful opportunities for affected minority and/or low-income communities to provide input on a project. As described below, the public involvement activities and methods for involving the public in the Project were developed in consideration of the needs and characteristics of these communities (e.g., holding meetings within the local communities near public transportation routes and advertising meetings in locations that are frequented by the local communities). According to the NYSDOT Limited English Proficiency (LEP) Plan, “Generally, if a NYSDOT activity will have an impact on an area where an eligible LEP language group constitutes 5 percent or 1,000 people, whichever is less, reasonable efforts should be put forth to provide meaningful access.” Table 5-1 presents a list of languages spoken by 1 percent or more of the Study Area population.

PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT percent of the Study Area population. Other Indic languages are spoken by 6 percent of the Study Area.1 Chinese and Russian languages each account for approximately 3 percent of the total population in the Study Area. In compliance with the federal EO 13166, Improving Access to Services for Persons with Limited English Proficiency, and the State of New York’s EO 26, Statewide Language Access Policy, the public involvement activities for the Project were developed to consider those populations with limited English proficiency (as described below). Reasonable efforts were made to provide meaningful access for the LEP populations within the Study Area. Figure 5-1 depicts the locations of the public meetings that have been held thus far for the Project; the locations where flyers advertising the public scoping meeting were distributed; and the areas of minority and/or low-income communities. 5.1 PUBLIC MEETINGS 5.1.1 Scoping Meeting A public scoping meeting for the Project was held on Wednesday, September 27, 2017, from 4:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. at The Greater Jamaica Development Corporation’s Harvest Room, at 90-40 160th Street, Jamaica, New York. The Harvest Room is near public transportation routes, including the LIRR Jamaica Station, J, Z, and E subway lines, and several bus lines, and is located within a community with identified minority populations. The meeting was held in an open house format, with project boards grouped into the following topics: project/study area; environmental review process; project overview; project purpose, needs, and objectives; concept screening/alternative analysis; and environmental considerations. The NYSDOT staff were available to answer questions, provide project information, and receive input. One area of the room was dedicated to providing written comments, with tables, chairs, comment cards, and a comment box. A stenographer was also available to record verbal comments. A Spanish-language interpreter was available, along with the NYSDOT’s language hotline service and language identification tool. The language hotline service and language identification tool assist people who do not speak and/or read English; meeting attendees identify the language that they speak and an interpreter is called to provide free language assistance. A public information brochure was developed and made available at the scoping meeting. The brochure provided a general project overview and described the ways in which the public could provide comments. The brochure is available on the project website (see Section 5.3 [Project Website]). 1 The four Indic languages tracked by the U.S. Census Bureau are Bengali, Tamil, Punjabi, and Telugu. 5-2 PIN X735.82 Van Wyck Expressway Capacity and Access Improvements to JFK Airport Project DDR/DEIS CHAPTER 5.

  • 2016 Community Health Needs Assessment
    2016 COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Community Health Needs Assessment, 2016 Update Purpose of the Community Health Needs Assessment This 2016 Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) updates the CHNA completed in 2013 to meet the requirements of Section 9007 of the 2010 federal law, The Affordable Care Act (“ACA”). The ACA requires that any tax-exempt, IRS- designated 501(c) (3) hospital complete or update a publicly-available, comprehensive CHNA every three years in order to document the extent to which it understands the unique characteristics and needs of the local communities it serves, and responds to these needs by delivering meaningful and effective community benefit through clinical services and other programming. Required Components A CHNA report has five required components: 1) Definition of community served 2) A prioritized description of the significant health needs of the community 3) Transparency in the process and methods used to conduct the CHNA, including how it took into account input from the community served and prioritized community health needs 4) A description of the resources potentially available to address the identified significant prioritized community health needs 5) An evaluation of the impact of actions taken to address the significant health needs identified in the previous CHNA report (June 2013). A CHNA report is considered complete when it is adopted by a governing body of the facility and made widely available to the public. Community Served NYC Health + Hospitals serve all New Yorkers in every neighborhood in New York City regardless of their ability to pay. Addressing disparity throughout New York City, NYC Health + Hospitals is the safety-net for the uninsured and underserved in New York City.
