AUTHORIZATION AND SCOPE OP WORK. This volume is one of a series of 14 reports presenting results of measurements of flow made on streams in the United States during the year ending September 30, 1916. The data presented in these reports were collected by the United States Geological Survey under the following authority contained in the organic law (20 Stat. L., p. 394): Provided, That this officer [the Director] shall have the direction of the Geological Survey and the classification of public lands and examination of the geological struc­ ture, mineral resources, and products of the national domain. The work was begun in 1888 in connection with special studies relating to irrigation in the arid west. Since the fiscal year ending June 30, 1895, successive sundry bills passed by Congress have car­ ried the following item and appropriations: For gaging the streams and determining the water supply of the United States, and for the investigation of underground currents and artesian wells, and for the prepara­ tion of reports upon the best methods of utilizing the water resources.

Those summer storms – as well as Superstorm Sandy, Hurricane Irene, and Tropical Storm Lee – signal that we need to rebuild our communities in a way that will mitigate against future risks and build increased resilience. To meet these pressing needs, Governor Andrew M. Cuomo led the charge to develop an innovative, community-driven program. The NY Rising Community Reconstruction (NYRCR) Program provides the State’s most impacted communities with the technical expertise needed to develop reconstruction strategies to build more resilient communities.

  • Rochester Embayment AOC Stage II RAP Chapter 9
    Chapter 9: Surveillance and Monitoring Program 9-1 . 9-2 Chapter 9: Surveillance and Monitoring Program Introduction Each Remedial Action Plan shall include: "A description of surveillance and monitoring processes to track the effectiveness of remedial measures and the eventual confirmation of the restoration of uses." (Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement, as amended in 1987) This Stage II chapter proposes one or more monitoring methods for each use impairment identified in the Rochester Embayment Area of Concern. Each monitoring method was designed by or with the assistance of professional persons in the appropriate field. Each monitoring method received three levels of review by: • Review team composed of persons knowledgeable in the appropriate field. • Monroe County Water Quality Coordinating Committee. • Monroe County Water Quality Management Advisory Committee. Because of the limited amount of resources that is available for monitoring and studies, a Studies and Monitoring Task Group evaluated both the studies and monitoring methods and ranked them in importance to the RAP process. See Chapter 4 for a description of proposed studies, and Chapter 11 for a description of the studies and monitoring ranking process and the ranked list. 9-3 9.1. Monitoring for toxics 9.1.1. Background: To set priorities and plan remediation efforts effectively, residents of the Rochester Area of Concern (AOC) need to know: • What are current conditions with regard to use impairments suspected or identified as being caused by toxic chemicals? • How do conditions change over time in response to remediation efforts? This section presents a sampling strategy and methodologies designed to provide this information for three use impairments in the Rochester Embayment AOC: (1) restrictions on fish and wildlife consumption, (2) degradation of fish and wildlife populations, and (3) degradation ofbenthos.
