Rae-Lyn Dussault Important Information Regarding New York State STAR Exemptions A large number of Malta homeowners currently have what is known as the STAR or Senior Enhanced STAR Exemption. This exemption applies a credit to your school tax bill resulting in a reduced bill. Residents now have the option to receive a check directly from New York State De- partment of Taxation and Finance (NYSDTF) instead of the exemption. Some key information is set forth below. If your income is greater than $250,000 and less than or equal to $500,000: Previous changes made those earning over $250,000 ineligible for a STAR exemption. You may now be eligible to receive a check if you register with NYSDTF. If your income is $250,000 or less: Assuming all other eligibility is met, you are eligible for STAR. If you are cur- rently receiving the exemption (reduction to your school tax bill), it is up to you to decide if you would rather switch to receive a check. If you switch, you must remember that your tax bill will be higher, and you will need to advise your lender or escrow agent so that your monthly payment can Hermitage Winter Palace Gate in be adjusted to avoid a shortage. St. Petersburg, Russia Why Switch? NYSDTF has indicated that it is a benefit for you to switch because you MAY receive periodic increas- es when/if your school stays within the 2% tax cap. Cur- rently, if we apply this logic, your potential increase could be $13 (Basic STAR) or $30 (Senior Enhanced STAR). Our office will not suggest whether you should remain in the exemption program or switch to the check program. Some folks may prefer to receive the credit on their bill and not have an increased monthly payment, while others may feel that the potential increase in the check is more beneficial. Making the Switch The deadline to switch for this Sep- tember’s School Tax bill has passed and you will therefore receive a credit on the bill. To make the switch for next year’s bill and all years thereafter, go to www.tax.ny.gov/ star and follow the instructions or call (518) 457-2036. If you’ve recently bought your home or you’ve never ap- plied for the STAR benefit on your current home you only need to register for the STAR credit once, and you’ll con- tinue to receive the annual benefit as long as you’re eligible. An abundance of information on the STAR topic is availa- St. Nicholas Cathedral, St. Petersburg ble on the NYSDTF website at www.tax.ny.gov/star, or call us at (518) 899-2584.

  • Wetlands of Saratoga County New York
    Acknowledgments THIS BOOKLET I S THE PRODUCT Of THE work of many individuals. Although it is based on the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's National Wetlands Inventory (NWI), tlus booklet would not have been produced without the support and cooperation of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Patrick Pergola served as project coordinator for the wetlands inventory and Dan Montella was project coordinator for the preparation of this booklet. Ralph Tiner coordi­ nated the effort for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS). Data compiled from the NWI serve as the foun­ dation for much of this report. Information on the wetland status for this area is the result of hard work by photointerpreters, mainly Irene Huber (University of Massachusetts) with assistance from D avid Foulis and Todd Nuerminger. Glenn Smith (FWS) provided quality control of the interpreted aerial photographs and draft maps and collected field data on wetland communities. Tim Post (N.Y. State D epartment of Environmental Conservation), John Swords (FWS), James Schaberl and Chris Martin (National Park Ser­ vice) assisted in the field and the review of draft maps. Among other FWS staff contributing to this effort were Kurt Snider, Greg Pipkin, Kevin Bon, Becky Stanley, and Matt Starr. The booklet was reviewed by several people including Kathleen Drake (EPA), G eorge H odgson (Saratoga County Environmental Management Council), John Hamilton (Soil and W ater Conserva­ tion District), Dan Spada (Adirondack Park Agency), Pat Riexinger (N.Y. State Department of Environ­ mental Conservation), Susan Essig (FWS), and Jen­ nifer Brady-Connor (Association of State Wetland Nlanagers).

The Adirondack Watershed Institute Stewardship Program (AWISP) is part of coordinated efforts at the local, regional and statewide levels to detect and arrest the spread of AIS. The Adirondack Watershed Institute (AWI) works year-round with partner organizations, communities and government agencies to understand and manage a range of environmental quality issues through research and education. 2014 marked the fifteenth field season for the AWISP. 2014 highlights: Clean, Drain, Dry! AWISP stewards provided coverage at 31 launches on 26 lakes and ponds this season sharing the message of “Clean, Drain, and Dry!” New Education Program! The AWISP launched an off-site environmental education program called the Water Shield Workshop. The program integrates land-based exercises with on-water activities for participants of all ages. Water Shield Workshops were held at Lake Pleasant, Schroon Lake, and Lower Saranac Lake in 2014. Finding Bythotrephes! Survey efforts by AWISP staff confirmed the presence of spiny waterflea (Bythotrephes longimanus) in Lake Pleasant and Piseco Lake for the first time. See it! Touch it! Learn it! The AWISP purchased an Enviroscape watershed model for education and outreach activities. Round-up of accomplishments, by the numbers: AWISP stewards confirmed and removed 834 AIS from inspected watercraft across the Adirondack region.

  • New York Freswater Fishing Regulations
    NEW YORK Freshwater FISHING2013–14 OFFICIAL REGULATIONS GUIDE VL O UME 6, ISSUE No. 1, OCTOBER 2013 Fly Fishing the Catskills New York State Department of Environmental Conservation www.dec.ny.gov Most regulations are in effect October 1, 2013 through September 30, 2014 MESSAGE FROM THE GOVERNOR New York’s Open for Hunting and Fishing Welcome to another great freshwater fishing season in New York, home to an extraor- dinary variety of waterbodies and diverse fisheries. From the historic Hudson River to the majestic Great Lakes, and with hundreds of lakes and thousands of miles of streams from the Adirondacks to the Fingers Lakes, New York offers excitement and challenges for anglers that cannot be beat! The Bass Anglers Sportsman Society selected five of our waters – Cayuga Lake, Oneida Lake, Lake Champlain, Thousand Islands/St. Lawrence River and Lake Erie for their list of the Top 100 Bass Waters of 2013, with the last two listed in the top 20. This year’s guide is focused on trout fishing in the Catskills, also a nationally renowned destination for trout anglers. We continue our efforts to make New York, which is already ranked 2nd in the United States for recreational fishing economic impact, even more attractive as a tourism destination. My “New York Open for Fishing and Hunting” initiative will simplify the purchase of sporting licenses in 2014 and, most importantly, reduce fees. In addition, we will spend more than $4 million to develop new boat launches and fishing access sites so we can expand opportunities for anglers. Over the past three years New York invested $2.5 million in the development of new boat launching facilities on Cuba Lake in Allegany County, the Upper Hudson River in Saratoga County, Lake Champlain in the City of Plattsburgh, and two new facilities on Lake Ontario - Point Peninsula Isthmus and Three Mile Bay, both in Jefferson County.

Though many New England tribes such as the Mahican used the lands in this area, we explored the ways that the Mohawk people in particular related to water in terms of food resources, including fishing, hunting, and agriculture; travel, trade, and warfare along the area's waterways; the medicinal springs of Saratoga; spirituality and culture; and current water-use issues. Preface Joseph Bruchac, a Native American local of the Saratoga region, introduces a book of Native American stories by describing the relationships native peoples of North America have with the Earth. “The Earth is not something to be bought and sold, something to be used and mistreated,” he writes. “It is, quite simply, the source of our lives—our Mother” (Caduto and Bruchac 1991). He continues to explain the role of native people on the Earth as entrusted with a mission to maintain the natural balance of the Earth. In Native American philosophy, life is seen as a great circle in which each person is related to everyone and everything.
