DESCRIPTION: The Park is situated in a deciduous forest bordered by marsh lands, a unecku, creating a separateness suitable for the multiple Park activities of picnicking, boating, swimming and camping. The Park entrance road, (A State Parkway) is adjacent to heavily populated South Shore towns. 4. SIGNIFICANCE: The Land has been of interest since the 17th C. when William Nicoll (1657-1723) bought if from the local Indians in 1683. The family lived here as uLords of theManoru naming it -"Islip Grange" until the 19th C. By the mid 19th C. the area was called "Great Neck", and after several owners of short duration, James Nea1(e) Plumb purchased in 1872 689 acres for an estate which was named uDeer Range Farm". During excavation for Plumbs large French mansardic style mansion, silver candlesticks and other items were unearthed. They were returned to the surviving Nicoll. George C. Taylor bought, in 1885, acreage to the west of Plumb's holdings. He too, built a mansion and many farm buildings in the prevailing style of architecuture, quite different from that preferred by the Plumbs. Later the Plumb estate (or parts of it) was bought by George Taylor. The large main residences were cut into sections, as part,: of the Plumb mansion 5.

    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.

    Section 4. County Profile

    Section 4: County Profile Section 4. County Profile Profile information is presented and analyzed to develop an understanding of a study area, including the economic, structural, and population assets at risk and the particular concerns that may be present related to hazards analyzed later in this plan (e.g., significant coastal areas or low lying areas prone to flooding or a high percentage of vulnerable persons in an area). This profile describes the general information of the County (government, physical setting, population and demographics, general building stock, and land use and population trends) and critical facilities located within Suffolk County. 4.1 General Information Suffolk County was established on November 1, 1683, as one of the ten original counties in New York State. Suffolk County was named after the county of Suffolk in England, from where many of its earliest settlers originated (Suffolk County Department of Planning, 2005). Suffolk County’s western border is approximately 15 miles from the eastern border of New York City. According to the U.S. Census data, the Suffolk County estimated population in 2012 was 1,499,273. Suffolk County is one of the 57 counties in New York State and is comprised of 10 towns and 31 incorporated villages. Within each town and village, there are incorporated and unincorporated areas (Suffolk County Department of Planning, 2007). The population of Suffolk County is larger than ten states and ranks as the 24th most populated county in the country (U.S. Census Bureau, 2012). Suffolk County is bordered by Nassau County to the west and major water bodies to the north, south, and east.
