Located 110 miles from New LYork City, this is indeed the east- ern terminus of marvelous Long Island. An oceanfront playground sporting more than 5,000 acres of pristine public beaches and breathtakingly diverse parkland, the story here began some 1.8 million years ago when glaciers crept south and pushed mineral-rich mounds of rocks and soil with them. Montauk Point, the southern “fluke” of the whale’s tail of Long Island’s East End, is what geologists call a terminal moraine: a heavy load of sedimentary rock bulldozed and then abandoned by the retreating glaciers. The pebbly beaches on the north side and high, sandy south side dunes are both inspiring.

    APPENDIX 1. A Selection of Biodiversity Conservation Agencies & Programs A variety of state agencies and programs, in addition to the NY Natural Heritage Program, partner with OPRHP on biodiversity conservation and planning. This appendix also describes a variety of statewide and regional biodiversity conservation efforts that complement OPRHP’s work. NYS BIODIVERSITY RESEARCH INSTITUTE The New York State Biodiversity Research Institute is a state-chartered organization based in the New York State Museum who promotes the understanding and conservation of New York’s biological diversity. They administer a broad range of research, education, and information transfer programs, and oversee a competitive grants program for projects that further biodiversity stewardship and research. In 1996, the Biodiversity Research Institute approved funding for the Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation to undertake an ambitious inventory of its lands for rare species, rare natural communities, and the state’s best examples of common communities. The majority of inventory in state parks occurred over a five-year period, beginning in 1998 and concluding in the spring of 2003. Funding was also approved for a sixth year, which included all newly acquired state parks and several state parks that required additional attention beyond the initial inventory. Telephone: (518) 486-4845 Website: www.nysm.nysed.gov/bri/ NYS DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION The Department of Environmental Conservation’s (DEC) biodiversity conservation efforts are handled by a variety of offices with the department. Of particular note for this project are the NY Natural Heritage Program, Endangered Species Unit, and Nongame Unit (all of which are in the Division of Fish, Wildlife, & Marine Resources), and the Division of Lands & Forests.

  • Section Vii Public Access Policies #19-20 & Recreation
    SECTION VII PUBLIC ACCESS POLICIES #19-20 & RECREATION POLICIES #9, #21 & 22 Town of East Hampton LWRP Public Access and Recreation Policies #9 &19-22 A. INTRODUCTION Public access to the water and the recreation activity it affords is critical to East Hampton Town's resort economy. The tourist, second home and real estate industries stem directly from the attractions of coastal recreation, which takes place on public beaches and in public waters. Fishing, boating and the myriad of other activities are supported by an array of local enterprises, marina and charter boat operations, boat rentals, fishing tackle and sporting goods shops, which depend on the ecology, natural bounty and scenic beauty of public coastal resources. Maintaining water quality, fisheries productivity, beaches, wetlands, etc. are vital not only for the intrinsic value of the resources, but also for their ripple effect through the economy. The value of public access and coastal recreation goes beyond their economic worth -- it is the primary incentive for visiting and living in East Hampton. Coastal based recreation goes on in every reach of the Town's coastal zone, from passive, non- consumptive pastimes like photography and nature walks, to active, consumptive uses like fishing and hunting. The coast is not only a setting for active recreation, the harmony of nature and vistas of open space are themselves re-creation and relaxation for the mind, healing balm for the frenetic pace of life. The sea and its proximity, the inlets, bays, beaches and marshes attract the eye with unbroken expanses, infusing the spirit. While this LWRP section examines public access and recreational infrastructure, it is important to recall the visual and scenic context of these facilities and their tangible benefits to quality of life.

  • Town of East Hampton Section VIII. Historic Resources Policy
    SECTION VIII HISTORIC RESOURCES POLICY #23 Town of East Hampton LWRP Historic Resources Policy #23 A. INTRODUCTION History shapes a community in subtle ways, colors the assumptions of community life, enriches and enlivens the sense of place for residents and visitors alike. Historic and cultural resources are the touchstones of tradition. They can be housed in museums, monuments and structures, but the real keys to continuity with the past, and the underpinnings of a viable future, are a community's awareness of its cultural history. The Inventory, Analysis and Historic Resource Policy #23 that follow are intended to promote an ethic of respect for the past, impress the need for study and quality information, and instill pride in the community's cultural and historic resources. In 1998 East Hampton Town celebrates the 350th anniversary of its founding by English settlers, the historical mainstream of present society. There have been other streams too, aboriginal settlements that date to thousands of years B.C., a heritage that left its mark in the Indian place names that abound in the community, and the wealth of archaeological sites the Town struggles to protect from pervasive development. Buildings and structures remind us of the colonial era; only the subtleties of the archaeological record and the oral history of native descendants remains to preserve aboriginal history. Since colonial times the Town has participated in several of the great tides of American history in its journey from a subsistence agricultural and fishing community to a premier coastal resort. The country's military history was acted out here beginning with the American Revolution.

  • Bethpage Black and Eisenhower Park Red Combine to Make Long Island a Colorful Golf Destination by Jason Scott Deegan November 7, 2014
    Bethpage Black and Eisenhower Park Red combine to make Long Island a colorful golf destination By Jason Scott Deegan November 7, 2014 SHOREHAM, N.Y. -- With roughly 45 public courses, Long Island provides plenty of affordable golf within a five-hour drive of New York City. The epicenter, of course, is Bethpage State Park in Farmingdale, home to five municipal courses. Bethpage Black, an A.W. Tillinghast classic, hosted the 2002 and 2009 U.S. Opens and is on tap for the 2019 PGA Championship and 2024 Ryder Cup. It's an epic challenge from the 6,700-yard white tees. Shooting your handicap is virtually impossible for first-timers, given its elevated greens and fierce bunkering. The Red Course at Bethpage has a reputation for being nearly as strong. Bethpage's Blue, Yellow and White Courses round out this popular facility of the people. More patriotic-colored courses -- the Red, White and Blue -- are found in East Meadow at Eisenhower Park, a sprawling playground run by Nassau County that includes a 9/11 Memorial, mini-golf, a massive lighted driving range, swimming and more. Eisenhower Park's Red Course designed by Devereux Emmet has hosted a major too -- the 1926 PGA Championship won by Walter Hagen -- as well as a Champions Tour event. Robert Trent Jones Sr. designed the Blue Course and White Course at Eisenhower Park. Two other unique golf experiences are found much farther from the Big Apple in Suffolk County, the Tallgrass Golf Club in Shoreham, and Montauk Downs State Park Golf Course in Montauk. Architect Gil Hanse designed Tallgrass to be a faux inland links that's fun and mostly forgiving.

  • Chapter 1 Seeds of an Organization
    Chapter 1 Seeds of an Organization ACH SPRING MILLIONS OF ALEWIFE—most would call them min- nows—spawn in the Little Reed Pond estuary. They are a cru- Ecial part of the local aquatic food chain, and their only route into Lake Montauk and beyond runs through a single pipe under East Lake Drive. That’s the good news. Because in 1970, the chairman of the East Hampton Zoning Board of Appeals, Eugene D. Haas Jr., proposed damming Lake Montauk just south of the Yacht Club and then cutting a new inlet through Little Reed Pond out to Block Island Sound by Shag- wong Point. He also wanted to build 1,400 houses on the 1,000-acre historic home and burial ground of the Montaukett Indians—known as Indian Field1—adjacent to Big Reed Pond. That would have been very bad news for the alewife—as well as the Montauk community. MONTAUKERS FORM GROUP, declared the headline in the July 16, 1970 East Hampton Star. “A new committee calling itself Concerned Citizens of Montauk was formed last week to oppose a recent proposal 1. The terms Indian Field and Indian Fields have been used inter- changeably in documents. 21 22 Holding Back The Tide Little Reed Pond is a critical finfish nursery, but it was almost replaced by a new inlet to Lake Montauk in 1970. for the development of the Indian Field–Lake Montauk area.” The arti- cle went on to state that the committee included Mrs. Samuel H. Joyce Jr., president of the Montauk Historical Society, and that it had placed an ad in the newspaper opposing the development of Indian Field.

  • Town of East Hampton Section IX. Scenic Resources Policies #24-25
    SECTION IX SCENIC RESOURCES POLICIES #24-25 Town of East Hampton LWRP Scenic Resources Policies #24-25 A. INTRODUCTION The Town of East Hampton has an extraordinary endowment of coastal scenery, vistas of the slender isthmus of Napeague stretching to Hither Hills, soft-edged coastal ponds, sinuous saltmarsh shorelines, puffs of spring shad bloom undulating over Montauk's moorlands, towering hoodoo ocean bluffs west of Montauk Point. The visual quality of the coast is part of the Town's natural wealth and its cultural heritage. Panoramic views of the water and esthetic issues are important not only because they deeply affect the way people feel about living in the community, but because scenic values play a vital part in attracting visitors, residents, and businesses to East Hampton. Certain esthetic values are deeply embedded in our culture and value systems, among them the passion for visual proximity to the water. Like people everywhere, East Hampton's residents have grown accustomed to their surroundings and tend to lose sight of the visual glory amidst their lives. Too often scenic resources are taken for granted and given short shrift until spectacular views have been marred by inappropriate development, dunescapes cluttered with boxy condominium rooflines, or the lines of dunes and bluffs broken by multi-storied homes thrust skyward for water views. With its untreed openness, the visual integrity of the Atlantic Ocean shore is easily disrupted and the most vulnerable to impairment from development. The scenery of the more wooded Peconic Estuary coast is more forgiving and in places can better conceal residential construction.
