Responses to Comments on This Chapter Chapter 10: Response to Comments 10.0-1 INTRODUCTION This chapter summarizes and responds to comments on the Water for the Future Program: Delaware Aqueduct Rondout-West Branch Tunnel (RWBT) Repair Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS), published on December 20, 2011. Oral and written comments were received during three public hearings held by the New York City Department of Environmental Protection (DEP): on January 23, 2012, at Town of Newburgh Town Hall, 1496 Route 300, Newburgh, NY; on January 24, 2012, at Wappingers Junior High School, 30 Major McDonald Way, Wappingers Falls, NY; and on January 25, 2012, at Wawarsing Town Hall, 108 Canal Street, Ellenville, NY. Written comments were accepted from issuance of the DEIS through the public comment period, which was scheduled to close on February 17, 2012, but extended to March 9, 2012. Chapter 10 is organized as follows: Section 10.0-2, “Organizations and Individuals That Commented,” alphabetically lists the elected officials, public agencies, organizations, community residents, and others that provided relevant comments on the DEIS. Section 10.0-3, “Comments and Responses,” summarizes and responds to each substantive comment. The comments are organized by subject area and generally follow the chapter organization of the DEIS. Where multiple comments were made on the same topic, comments are grouped together. Following each comment is the name of the organization or individual that made the comment, as listed in Section 10.0-2. Responses follow each comment. The full text of public agency comments, written comments, and public hearing transcripts is available for review at the New York City Department of Environmental Protection, 11th Floor, 59-17 Junction Blvd, Flushing, NY. Where relevant and appropriate, changes and other edits to the DEIS based on public comments received have been incorporated into the Final EIS (FEIS). However, with the exception of minor editorial changes to graphics for the FEIS which are noted in some responses below, for ease of review, additional text added to the individual FEIS chapters are also embedded within the appropriate responses below in this chapter. 10.0-1 Water for the Future Program: Delaware Aqueduct Rondout-West Branch Tunnel Repair FEIS 10.0-2 ORGANIZATIONS AND INDIVIDUALS THAT COMMENTED 1.

This battle was fought on August 16, 1777, in a British effort to capture American storehouses in Bennington to restock their depleting provisions. Baum had entrenched his men at the bridge across the Walloomsac River, Dragoon Redoubt, and Tory Fort, which Stark successfully attacked. Colonel Warner's Vermont militia arrived in time to assist Stark's reconstituted force in repelling Breymann's relief column of some 600 men. The British forces had underestimated the strength of their enemy and failed to get the supplies they had sought, weakening General John Burgoyne's army at Saratoga. Baum and over 200 men died and 700 men surrendered. The Americans lost 30 killed and forty wounded The Site: Hessian Hill offers picturesque views and interpretative signs about the battle. Directions: Take Route 7 east to Route 22, then take Route 22 north to Route 67.

    Chapter 2: Assessment of Waterbodies and Watershed Resources CHAPTER 2. ASSESSMENT OF WATERBODIES AND WATERSHED RESOURCES □□□□□ 2: 1 Introduction 2: 1.1 BACKGROUND This assessment compiles a wealth of existing information and characterizes the values and impairments of the watershed while also enhancing the reader’s awareness of the Quassaick Creek, its tributaries, and water resource issues in general. This Chapter is organized with the following sub- sections to describe the physical, ecological, and human characteristics within the Watershed. Figures and maps have been included to illustrate these features, and are interspersed throughout the report. o Section 1: Introduction o Section 2: Geological Resources o Section 3: Water Resources o Section 4: Living Resources o Section 5: Land Use and Land Cover o Section 6: Pollutant and Nutrient Loading o Section 7: Community Profile o Section 8: Summary 2: 1.2 WATERSHED OVERVIEW Quassaick Creek is one of 65 major streams and rivers that flow into the Hudson River Estuary. Hudson River Estuary tributaries vary in size from small intermittent streams that may dry-up during summer months, to larger rivers with watersheds that cover hundreds of square miles. Quassaick Creek is an average sized tributary compared to all other tributaries, draining approximately 56 square miles of land in Orange and Ulster Counties. Tributaries such as the Quassaick are interwoven components of the Hudson Estuary ecosystem and are influenced by diurnal tides (i.e., twice daily). Due to impoundments and barriers in the lower Quassaick Creek, however, tidal influence is limited to only the mouth of the Creek, east of the American Felt and Filter dam.

    ENRICHING PLACE 2013 NJ HISTORY AND HISTORIC PRESERVATION CONFERENCE June 6, 2013 | www.njpreservationconference.org N EWARK MUSEUM| NEWARK NEWARK MUSEUM Newark Welcome to the 2013 New Jersey History and Historic Preservation Conference at The Newark Museum! Enriching Place, the theme of this first combined History and Historic Preservation Conference is an evocative phrase for New Jerseyans. After witnessing the power and destruction of Hurricane Sandy last year, we are all more aware of how important place is. How important landmarks are as repositories of our shared experiences. How we use buildings and sites from our history to map a road to our future. This year’s program features author Tony Hiss who will speak to the idea and reality of place and how people experience it. His remarks will lead us into a full day of classroom sessions, tours, exhibits and workshops that will educate us about the details of preservation and accreditation, examine the necessity of disaster planning and recovery, and expand our understanding of special places in Newark, on the Raritan Waterfront and at the Statue of Liberty. During the day please visit with the sponsors and vendors in the exhibit area. It is the sponsors’ financial support for the History and Historic Preservation Conference that is vital in making this a self-supporting event. Best wishes for a successful conference!
