Our Great Lakes consistently deliver outstanding fishing for salmon and steelhead and it doesn’t stop there. In fact, New York is home to four of the Bassmaster’s top 50 bass lakes, drawing anglers from around the globe to come and experience great smallmouth and largemouth bass fishing. The crystal clear lakes and streams of the Adirondack and Catskill parks make New York home to the very best fly fishing east of the Rockies. Add abundant walleye, panfish, trout and trophy muskellunge and northern pike to the mix, and New York is clearly a state of angling opportunity. Fishing is a wonderful way to reconnect with the outdoors. Here in New York, we are working hard to make the sport more accessible and affordable to all. Over the past five years, we have invested more than $6 million, renovating existing boat launches and developing new ones across the state. This is in addition to the 50 new projects begun in 2014 that will make it easier for all outdoors enthusiasts to access the woods and waters of New York. Our 12 DEC fish hatcheries produce 900,000 pounds of fish each year to increase fish populations and expand and improve angling opportunities.

    Ashokan Rail Trail Opening This Fall

    Subject: Watershed Recreation News & Events From: "New York City DEP Recreation" <[email protected]> Sent: 4/26/2019 4:22:18 PM To: [email protected]; Bureau of Water Supply Natural Resources Division Above: Ulster County works to remove the old railroad trestle across the Esopus Creek that was destroyed during tropical storms Irene and Lee. The bridge, near Boiceville, will be replaced with a new structure that will be part of the Ashokan Rail Trail. Ashokan Rail Trail ­ Opening this fall Ulster County's construction crews are back at work on the Ashokan Rail Trail after a short break for winter. This year, along with work on the trail, contractors will remove the old railroad trestle over the Esopus Creek that was destroyed by tropical storms Irene and Lee (photo above). The trestle will be replaced by a bridge to carry the rail trail over the creek. The first half of the Ashokan Rail Trail, from Basin Road to the hamlet of Ashokan, is expected to open in the fall of this year. The remaining section, from Ashokan to Route 28A near Boiceville, is planned to be completed in early 2020. Trailheads will be constructed at the eastern end of the trail and at a central location near the former Ashokan Station site. A temporary parking area will be constructed near the western end of the trail. A more permanent trailhead on the western end will be constructed off Route 28 in Boiceville as part of DEP's work to replace the five­arch bridge that spans the Esopus Creek.

    Infrastructure and Tectonics of the Hudson Highlands, New York Nicholas M

    NYSGA 2009 Trip 9 - Ratcliffe and Aleinikoff Trip 9 - Ratcliffe and Aleinikoff Pre-Ottawan (1.09 Ga) Infrastructure and Tectonics of the Hudson Highlands, New York Nicholas M. Ratcliffe1 and John N. Aleinikoff2 1U.S. Geological Survey, Reston VA 20192, [email protected] 2U.S. Geological Survey, Denver, CO 80225, [email protected] INTRODUCTION This trip focuses on some of the oldest Mesoproterozic rocks in the Appalachians and the nature of the pre-Ottawan (pre-1.09 Ga) infrastructure of the Hudson Highlands and Manhattan Prong. Zircon geochronology by Aleinikoff (Table 1) is revised from that given in Table 1 of Ratcliffe and Aleinikoff (2008) and is still preliminary. Ongoing geologic mapping east of the Hudson River in the Peekskill, West Point, Lake Carmel, Mohegan Lake, Brewster and Peach Lake quadrangles continues to lead to a reinterpretation and clarification of our former views (Ratcliffe and Aleinikoff, 2001, 2008) as well a new synthesis for the Hudson Highlands east of the Hudson River. After publish- ing the detailed geology of the Poughquag quadrangle (Ratcliffe and Burton, 1990) and the Oscawana Lake quad- rangle (Ratcliffe, 1992), investigations were resumed in 2000 to prepare the previously mapped but unpublished quadrangles for publication. This trip presents, in preliminary form, much of the recent, (post-2000) information, which helps clarify the age and distribution of Mesoproterozoic basement rocks of the Hudson Highlands and Manhattan Prong and is an abbrevi- ated version of our 2008 NEIGC trip. Please note that stops have been changed and that the route is different. A remarkable newly recognized aspect of Hudson Highlands geology covered in this trip is the widespread presence of orthogneisses and metavolcanic rocks belonging to the time period between 1400 Ma and 1200 Ma, or during Geochrons 14 and 13 of Rivers (1997).

The EPA approves this TMDL pursuant to Section 303(d)(2) of the Clean Water Act (CWA) and the EPA's implementing regulations at 40 CFR 130.7(d)(2). The rationale for this approval is provided in the enclosure entitled "Review of Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) for Total Phosphorus for Lake Carmel, New York." The TMDL addresses the total phosphorus loading and impairment in this waterbody and is established at a level sufficient to attain the NYSDEC's water quality guidance value for total phosphorus for Lake Carmel. The EPA expects this approved TMDL will be incorporated in the New York State Water Quality Management Plan.
