Language of the English . Material: Abstract: The papers of Lou Ismay document the history of the Environmental Forum at the University at Albany, SUNY, (State University of New York at Albany as it was then known) from 1969-1977, as well as the Environmental Studies Program. The collection contains information on the Environmental Forum, the Protect Your Environment Club, administrative files, student writings, subject files, correspondence, and publications. The student writings are from Ismay's Environmental Forum classes from 1969-1977. This series is restricted from use, along with parts of the Environmental Forum and correspondence series. This course was held under different numbers during its existence, including A&S 201 and Env.250a and b. The strength of the collection lies not in the educational departments that are represented by the collection, but by the overall impression one can gather about the rise of environmental awareness among students at the university. Access to certain student material is restricted. Consult a staff member for details.

Grenander Department of Special Collections and Archives, University Libraries, University at Albany, State University of New York (hereafter referred to as [shortened name]). ^ Return to Table of Contents - Page 3- Ismay, Lou; Papers ua902.064 Biographical Sketch Louis Fletcher Ismay (commonly known as Lou Ismay) was born in Bronxville, New York on February 25, 1925. Ismay received a Bachelor of Education from the University of the State of New York at New Paltz in 1949, and a Master of Arts in education administration from Columbia University in 1958. Prior to finishing his education Ismay served in the military from September 1943 through June 1946. Ismay was selected to be the coordinator of the Environmental Forum course at the State University of New York at Albany (as the University at Albany, SUNY was then known) in 1970 because of his extensive history and experience in administrative, educational, as well as executive positions that required creative and visionary approaches to maximize resources. [Resume of Louis Ismay, undated. Series 1: Environmental Forum, Box 2, Folder 40]. The Environmental Forum course taught by Ismay was a part of the Environmental Studies Program at the University. Additional information about the Environmental Studies Program is available in the finding aid for the collection. Ismay taught the course from its inception in the spring of 1970, when the environmental ideals that this course was based on were spreading to campuses nationwide, until its demise in 1977 because of budget cuts. The themes of the course included new measures for waste management through recycling, strengthening pollution regulations, and reducing unnecessary consumption by individuals. Ismay taught students to take a proactive stance to their surroundings, both environmental and societal, which is reflected in the student projects in this collection. Ismay's students did not passively observe their surroundings, but went out armed with ideas and came back with environmental awareness that they then tried to share with others. Ismay currently lives in Altamont, New York. ^ Return to Table of Contents Scope and Contents The Louis Ismay Papers document the history of the Environmental Forum at the State University of New York at Albany (as the University at Albany, SUNY was then known) from 1970-1977, as well as the Environmental Studies Program. The collection contains information on the Environmental Forum, the Protect Your Environment Club (PYE), administrative files, student writings, subject files, correspondence, and publications. The student writings are from Ismay's Environmental Forum classes from 1970-1977. This series, along with parts of the Environmental Forum and correspondence series, is restricted from use. This course was held under different numbers during its existence, including A&S 201 and Env.250a and b. Many environmental issues facing the Capital Region, as well as the nation between 1968 and 1977, are documented in the Ismay Papers. Recycling, pollution control, consumption reduction, and environmental awareness are all topics that can be found not only in the subject files of the papers, but also in each series. The Environmental Forum was created as a result of the environmental concern that - Page 4- Ismay, Lou; Papers ua902.064 swept through universities on a national level during this time. The purpose of the Forum was active involvement of environmentally concerned individuals with their community in an attempt to better the environment that they lived in. Some papers appear to be from environmental law classes and other related classes. This makes it seem that this collection includes papers from other professors in the Environmental Studies Program, including Rosemary Nichols, an instructor of the law classes. The collection lacks biographical information of significance about Lou Ismay. Other than learning about a few of his interests, little personal information can be found in his papers. Many of the documents in the collection are damaged as a result of poor storage prior to arriving at the University at Albany. The strength of the collection lies not in the educational departments that are represented in the collection, but in the overall impression of the rise of environmental awareness among students at the University at Albany, which is one small link to understanding the rise in environmental concern on campuses throughout the United States during this period. This can be seen through national events such as Earth Day and Earth Week that were begun in this era (see Governor Malcolm Wilson executive order creating Earth Week in 1974 in series 2). ^ Return to Table of Contents Arrangement of the Collection The collection is organized as follows: ^ Return to Table of Contents Administrative Information Publication Statement M.E.

  • Subwatershed Characterization
    Chapter 3: Subwatershed Assessment 3.1 Objective of the Assessment The structure of watersheds is dendritic or tree-like with smaller streams joining progressively larger ones (see Map 2-5). Thus, the watershed as a whole can be divided into a series of nested “subwatersheds” as illustrated by the HUC-8 through HUC-12 notation. Effective management of water quality in the basin as a whole depends on recognizing this fundamental structure of the watershed, starting with smaller units and addressing restoration and protection efforts to progressively larger, more inclusive ones. The objective, therefore, is to assess water- quality issues at their source, and to set priorities for remediating degraded parts of the watershed and protecting those that are not degraded but may be in danger of becoming so without effective management. Recommendations for addressing the restoration and protections issues uncovered in this assessment are discussed in Chapter 4. 3.2 Assessment Criteria and Procedure To complete this assessment, each of the 12-digit HUC subwatersheds in the Mohawk River Watershed was evaluated using a set of quantitative indicators for three aspects of watershed health: water quality, land use, and habitat. The evaluation assigned a score of 1 to 5 for each of various quantitative indicators (metrics) of watershed health. The scores associated with these metrics of watershed health were combined to a final score; some were weighted for overall significance. The amalgamated scores can be used to help define priority areas (subwatersheds with the lowest overall scores), while preserving important information regarding the underlying causes for concern. Quantitative indicators and resulting scores for the three aspects of watershed health are described in this section.

    Water-quality Assessment Of The Hudson River Basin In New York And Adjacent States − Analysis of available nutrient, pesticide, volatile organic compound, and suspended-sediment data, 1970-90 By Patrick J. Phillips and Dorothea W. Hanchar _____________________________________ U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY Water-Resources Investigations Report 96-4065 Troy, New York 1996 i U.S. DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR BRUCE BABBITT, Secretary U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY Gordon Eaton, Director For additional information Copies of this report can be write to: purchased from: U.S. Geological Survey District Chief Branch of Information Services U.S. Geological Survey, WRD Federal Center 425 Jordan Road Box 25425 Troy, N.Y. 12180 Denver, CO 80225-8286 ii FOREWORD The mission of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) is to assess the quantity and quality of the earth resources of the Nation and to provide information that will assist resource managers and policymakers at Federal, State, and local levels in making sound decisions. Assessment of water-quality conditions and trends is an important part of this overall mission. One of the greatest challenges faced by water-resources scientists is acquiring reliable information that will guide the use and protection of the Nation's water resources. That challenge is being addressed by Federal, State, interstate, and local water-resource agencies and by many academic institutions. These organizations are collecting water-quality data for a host of purposes that include: compliance with permits and water-supply standards; development of remediation plans for a specific contamination problem; operational decisions on industrial, wastewater, or water-supply facilities; and research on factors that affect water quality.

  • Working Toward a Fishable, Swimmable Mohawk River
    WORKING TOWARD A FISHABLE, SWIMMABLE MOHAWK RIVER Not everyone lives next to a river, pond, or stream, but we all live in a watershed. Like many waterways, the Mohawk River suffers from sediment, bacteria, and excess nutrients that wash into it from the surrounding watershed. Although nutrients sound like things that belong in a healthy environment, too much can cause big problems, from harmful algae to excessive weed growth. Current and Future Threats to the Health of the Watershed • Sediment resulting from soil erosion from agriculture, construction sites, eroding stream banks, and dirt washed from pavement and roofs can degrade the quality of drinking water. Sediment also suffocates fish by clogging their gills, makes them vulnerable to disease, and reduces their ability to reproduce. • Impervious surfaces and other changes to the landscape can alter the way rainfall and snowmelt run off the land into waterbodies. This can lead to both low stream levels and to flooding, depending on the flow pattern. • Nutrients and bacteria from crop and livestock production, lawn fertilization, and faulty septic and wastewater treatment systems can cause overgrowths of aquatic weeds and algae. These can The Schoharie Creek at Burtonsville, looking upstream into the Catskill be health risks to humans and pets and may hinder Mountains.

  • Dan Shapley Water Quality Program Director Riverkeeper, Inc
    Testimony of Dan Shapley Water Quality Program Director Riverkeeper, Inc. Joint Legislative Public Hearing on 2018-2019 Executive Budget Proposal: Environmental Conservation February 7, 2018 Thank you to the chairs and members of the Senate and Assembly committees represented here for the opportunity to testify today. Riverkeeper is a membership organization with nearly 55,000 members and constituents. Riverkeeper ​ ​ protects the environmental, recreational and commercial integrity of the Hudson River and its tributaries, ​ and safeguards the drinking water of millions of New Yorkers. Recent actions by Governor Andrew M. Cuomo and the Legislature have set the course for New York State to be a national clean water leader. These actions include the Sewage Pollution Right to Know Act in 2012; the Water Infrastructure Improvement Act in 2015, and the doubling of the state’s commitment to it in 2016; the establishment of the Governor’s Water Quality Rapid Response Team in 2016; and of course the historic actions associated with the FY2018 budget in 2017, including the Clean Water Infrastructure Act and establishment of the Drinking Water Council, as well as emerging contaminant monitoring requirements and Source Water Assessment funding in the Environmental Protection Fund. With my testimony today, I aim to highlight some of the key opportunities for maintaining and building on these initiatives in FY2018-2019: 1. Department of Environmental Conservation Staff 2. Water Infrastructure 3. Source Water Protection 4. Environmental Protection Fund, and the Hudson River Estuary Program 5. Harmful Algal Blooms and wetlands mapping - Wallkill River 6. New York State’s Water Resources Strategy I will also touch on three legislative initiatives that we hope can be advanced concurrently with the passage of the FY2018-2019 budget, including: 1 ● Plastic bag ban ● Energy Efficiency Jobs Act ● Pharmaceutical takeback programs.
