July-Sept, 2008 Notes from the Trailhead Summer Is Upon Us… That Wonderful, Lazy Time of Year July-Sept, 2008 Notes from the Trailhead Summer is upon us… that wonderful, lazy time of year. The pace of life is a little slower, the days are longer, and the weather makes you want to spend time outdoors. It’s the perfect time to get out on the trails and enjoy the out- doors. Of course, you belong to a hiking club, so you al- ready know that. You also know the benefits of belonging to a hiking club. You have a multitude of hikes to choose from every week (even if you choose not to go on any). You have a net- work of like-minded outdoor enthusiasts with different ex- periences from whom you can learn. You are kept apprised of issues affecting the hiking community. Your dues support lobbying in support of open space and other similar is- sues. The list goes on, but you get the idea. Another benefit is the opportunity that you have to be- come involved in the activities of the chapter. It’s a wonder- ful opportunity to share your experience and to learn from others. It’s also a great way to make friends. If you’ve been reading my articles over the years, you’ll know that most of my closest friends were met through my involvement in ADK. At our last meeting, we were discussing our upcoming elections for Chapter Chairperson, Secretary, and Treas- urer. As you may know, both Betty Heald and I are unable to run for office again due to restrictions in our bylaws. As a result, we are looking for people who might consider step- ping up and running for office. We’re also looking for people to help out with some of our committees as well. If you’ve been a member of ADK for a while, don’t you think it might be fun to be a little more involved? We need your help! If you’re even remotely interested, why not give Phyllis Stewart a call to discuss how you can volunteer. I promise you won’t regret it. See you on the trails… Christopher Tausch page 1 ~Chapter Officers and Committee Chairs~ Chapter Chair: .... Christopher Tausch 201-819-3034 ....................

You will be advised immediately whenever: • A hike is cancelled or changed. • A key environmental or conservation issue arises. • Announcements are made of upcoming ADK- NJ meetings and events. Just go to www.hikeleader.com and look for “Join our mailing list" at the bottom. You will receive an email asking you to confirm your de- sire to join the email list. You can "opt out" of the list at any time. If you have any questions, send an email to our Webmaster, Rob Lehmann at [email protected]. page 3 New York New Jersey Trail Conference Requests The NYNJTC requests all hikers to let your state represen- tatives know that you oppose closing our state parks. All you have to do is go to their website at wwwnnynjtc.org, read the article on closing the parks and click on “take action”. That’s it, and it won’t cost you a cent to let the legislators in Trenton know what’s on your mind. By the time this issue of Trail Talk is published, we might even have had some positive action. After you complete that noble deed, click on some of their other links and see what else is going on. There’s news of newly created trails, trail relocations, ideas for future trails, all stuff that’s interesting to hikers. If you enjoy playing with your GPS, they could use some help plotting the trails in western NJ in preparation for the new maps. It’s a great site to get the lowdown on what’s happening in the wonderful world of hiking. This is one organization that has greatly enriched my outdoor life since I joined many years ago. I’d encourage you to not only read their website, but visit their office on Rt. 202 in Mah- wah, just ¼ mile east of Rt.17. They have a great library and will answer your questions regarding the many miles of trails they maintain.

Suzan Gordon, Programs Chair, 201-871-3531, [email protected] • SEPTEMBER 18th MEETING AND PROGRAM Do you love to view the landscapes of the Hudson River School painters? At our meeting on Thursday, September 18th, the speaker will be Geoff Welch, curator of Harmony Hall in Sloatsburg, NY. His topic will be "Jasper F. Cropsey, Artist of the Highlands". Jasper Francis Cropsey (1823-1900) is known to have been in the High- lands region as early as 1843. The main body of his artistic output depicts a variety of highlands scenes, far more than any other artist of that time produced. Using sketches and paintings we will tour the NY/NJ highlands of the 19th century through the eye of this great artist and a few of his remarkable friends in the Hudson River School of Art. Over 100 images will be shown including Greenwood Lake, Torne Mountain, Lake Waywayanda and the Ramapo River Valley. We will also hear quotes from Cropsey's unpublished journal and letters. Please join us and bring friends for an interesting and visually exciting evening. The meeting is at 7PM in the Nanuet Pub- lic Library, Nanuet NY. Refreshments and conversation will follow the presentation.

  • Nyack Beach State Park
    Nyack Beach State park Hook Mountain State Park is perfect for a great day outside. Hook Mountain and Nyack Beach State Parks are located at the very end of North Broadway in Nyack , NY. The combined areas offer hiking and biking trails, fishing and picnicking along the Hudson River. The riverside path is about two miles long and is fairly level so it’s a relatively easy walk. The Hook Mountain trail continues for another four miles to the Haverstraw Beach State Park for a longer, more intensive hike. There’s plenty of wildlife that call this park home. Hawks nest in the cliffs and glide overhead. There are also fossils and dinosaur footprints in the rocks along the pathway. The views along the bike path are inspiring, not just of the river but the mountain side as well. With every season and every storm the landscape evolves. Rock slides along the cliffs create remarkable formations. Sometimes you can actually look up at the cliffs and pick out where a specific pile of boulders has fallen as if from a jigsaw puzzle. Some of these boulders seem to form familiar shapes of faces and animals, silent sentinels watching over the seasons, sunrises, the ebbs and flows of the tides and dual currants of the historic and mysterious Hudson River. There are many places along this path that make it special. Trails lead up the mountain and intersect and weave through the woods along the river, some continue to the upper level of the park and beyond, some just end abruptly.

  • 3. Affected Environment
    Draft Champlain Hudson Power Express EIS 3. Affected Environment This section provides a description of the existing environment within the proposed CHPE Project area. To facilitate discussion, this EIS divides the approximately 336-mile (541-km) proposed transmission line route into four segments: Lake Champlain Segment (Section 3.1), Overland Segment (Section 3.2), Hudson River Segment (Section 3.3), and New York City Metropolitan Area Segment (Section 3.4). This division is based on geographical and environmental similarities along the route, as described in Section 2.4.1. The Lake Champlain and Hudson River segments contain primarily aquatic corridors, the Overland Segment contains primarily terrestrial corridors, and the New York City Metropolitan Area Segment is a combination of aquatic and terrestrial corridors. The potential impacts associated with constructing and operating the proposed CHPE Project are discussed in Chapter 5 based on the environmental resource areas described in the following sections. Brief definitions of each resource area; laws, regulations, and guidelines potentially applicable to the resource; and existing conditions are discussed for each segment, as appropriate. A region of influence (ROI) for each resource area in which impacts would likely occur is also defined. The ROIs were determined based on regulatory requirements, where applicable, combined with the expected maximum area of measurable construction or operational impacts for that particular resource. 3.1 Lake Champlain Segment 3.1.1 Land Use 3.1.1.1 Background on the Resource Area This section describes existing land uses in the vicinity of the proposed CHPE Project route, and land use plans and policies applicable to the proposed CHPE Project area.

  • Section 13: Climate Planning & Resilience
    VILLAGE OF UPPER NYACK COMPREHENSIVE PLAN October 30, 2020 Section 13: Climate Planning & Resilience OVERVIEW Upper Nyack’s 1999 Comprehensive Plan included the following statement in the ‘Introduction’ section: ‘Future development must be planned with environmental impact in mind.’ Although it referenced the specific concern of runoff and erosion from the Village and the role this plays in the complex environment of the Hudson River, the statement is even more relevant today as an expression of broader environmental concerns. Section 13: Climate Planning & Resilience 13 - 1 Comprehensive Guidelines for a Sustainable Community VILLAGE OF UPPER NYACK COMPREHENSIVE PLAN October 30, 2020 The terms ‘Climate Planning and Resilience’ were not part of the general lexicon in 1999. But two decades later there is an increasing awareness and broad understanding that we are in a period of general climate change. Thus, planning for the anticipated impacts that such significant climate changes may bring has increasingly become an important element in a community’s planning for the future. CLIMATE PLANNING & RESILIENCE The primary focus of climate planning efforts is to identify the vulnerabilities that communities have with regards to the projected environmental consequences of climate change. Climate resilience can be defined as “the capacity for a socio-ecological system to: (1) absorb stresses and maintain function in the face of external stresses imposed upon it by climate change and (2) adapt, reorganize, and evolve into more desirable configurations

  • Case 10-T-0139 Appendix B to Joint Proposal Project Description
    Case 10-T-0139 Appendix B to Joint Proposal Project Description The transmission system is comprised of two solid state (no fluids) high voltage direct current (“HVDC”) electric cables, each approximately 6 inches in diameter, extending entirely within New York State from the International border to a converter station in Astoria, in the borough of Queens, New York City, New York. The transmission cables will be buried underwater or underground along the entire Project route, except where the cables are installed within conduits attached to existing bridge structures at locations including the Hudson River channel at Fort Edward, the Mohawk River, and Catskill Creek. From the converter station, high voltage alternating current cables (“HVAC”) will be connected to a New York Power Authority (“NYPA”) substation. The Project originates at the International border between the United States and Canada and continues south within Lake Champlain for approximately 101.5 miles in waters of the state of New York. The cables will be located to the east of Rouses Point, Point au Fer, Chazy Landing, Point Au Roche and Cumberland Head, east of Valcour Island and the Four Brothers islands, and then run towards the New York – Vermont border near the middle of the lake. From Split Rock Point south the cables would be located closer to the New York shoreline. At Crown Point, the installation technology would shift from jet plow to shear plow. Proceeding southward, the waters of the lake become shallower, and the cables route is closer to the NY-Vermont border near the middle of the narrow water body.
