  • Impacts to Stream Habitat and Wild Trout Populations in Vermont Following Tropical Storm Irene
    Impacts to Stream Habitat and Wild Trout Populations in Vermont Following Tropical Storm Irene Vermont Fish and Wildlife Department Annual Report State: Vermont Project No.: F-36-R-14 Grant Title: Inland Waters Fisheries and Habitat Management Study No. IX Study Title: Aquatic Habitat Conservation and Restoration Period Covered: July 1, 2011 to June 30, 2012 Summary: Damage suffered from Tropical Storm Irene required immediate and in some cases extensive stream channel alteration to protect life and property and rebuild critical transportation infrastructure. However, a significant amount of instream activity was also conducted without proper consultation and oversight or for reasons beyond necessary flood recovery. These activities continued for several months after the flood event and covered a wide area of the central and southern portion of the state. Post-flood activities which were detrimental to aquatic habitat quality and diversity included large scale removal of streambed material and natural wood, berming of streambed materials to raise streambank elevations and the straightening of stream channels. These activities resulted in homogeneous, overwidened stream channels comprised of small substrates and lacking the diversity of habitats, flows and depths necessary to support robust aquatic populations. As fish population recovery and fisheries management options will be dependant on aquatic habitat quality and complexity, the Vermont Department of Fish and Wildlife conducted an assessment of post-flood aquatic habitats in selected watersheds. This partial assessment estimated a total of 77 miles of stream with major degradation of aquatic habitat resulting from post-flood stream channel alteration activities. Long-term monitoring studies in Vermont indicate that, in the absence of post-flood channel alterations, wild trout populations generally recover within 2-4 years.

    RECEIVED MAR 2 5 1998 GST! DISPOSAL/RECOVERY OPTIONS FOR BRINE WATERS FROM OIL AND GAS PRODUCTION IN NEW YORK STATE nmxou NERGY AND DEVELOPMENT AUTHORTIY The New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) is a public benefit corporation created in 1975 by the New York State Legislature. F. William Valentino is President and Chief Operating Officer. NYSERDA's primary mission is to carry out a broad program of energy research, development and demonstration projects designed to develop and apply efficient technologies to help ensure that New York has secure and economical future supplies of energy, while protecting environmental values and promoting economic growth. NYSERDA derives its basic research revenues from an assessment levied on the intrastate sales of New York State's investor-owned electric and gas utilities. Additional research dollars come from limited corporate funds and a voluntary annual contribution by the New York Power Authority. In its research program, NYSERDA stresses consultation and collaboration with other organizations, including utilities, universities, industries, private engineering and scientific research firms, local governments, and Stateand federal agencies. These efforts stretch NYSERDA's limited research funds and ensure the involvement of those who can use the results of the research. In its federally funded Energy Services program, NYSERDA provides technical assistance to improve the energy and environmental performance of businesses and institutions, helps secure energy-project funding from private and public sources, and converts fleet vehicles to alternative fuels. The Energy Analysis program focuses on using energy, regulatory, and environmental policies to help New York State businesses grow and to meet the needs of New York State's energy consumers.

  • Appendix D Wild and Scenic Rivers
    Appendix D Wild and Scenic Rivers APPENDIX D WILD AND SCENIC RIVERS Introduction..................................................................................................D - 1 Assessment Process...................................................................................D - 1 Introduction National On October 2, 1968, Congress signed the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act. This Act established the National Wild and Scenic Rivers System, stating, “It is hereby declared to be the policy of the United States that certain selected rivers of the Nation which, with their environments, possess outstandingly remarkable scenic, recreational, geologic, fish and wildlife, historic, cultural, or other similar values, shall be preserved in a free-flowing condition, and that they and their immediate environments shall be protected for the benefit and enjoyment of present and future generations” (Sec. 1(b)). The Act also states, “In all planning for the use and development of water and related land resources, consideration shall be given by all Federal agencies involved to potential national wild, scenic and recreational river areas…” (Sec. 5(d)). In 1982 the National Park Service first published a Nationwide Rivers Inventory that now lists more than 3,400 US river segments that are believed to have characteristics making them eligible for inclusion in the National Wild and Scenic Rivers System. This list is not exhaustive, however, and other free-flowing river segments within the Forest possessing one or more outstandingly remarkable should be addressed as well. Green Mountain National Forest There are currently no federally designated wild, scenic, or recreational rivers within the State of Vermont. Potential wild and scenic rivers (WSRs) were addressed in the Green Mountain National Forest’s 1987 Forest Plan. At that time, only those rivers studied in the Nationwide Rivers Inventory were determined eligible for inclusion into the National Wild and Scenic Rivers System; the Forest Service did not evaluate the eligibility of other rivers on the Forest.

  • RESULTS for AQUATIC SYSTEMS and SPECIES* the HAL Aquatics Analysis Did Not Deviate from the Standard Methodology Documented in Olivero Et Al (2003)1
    RESULTS FOR AQUATIC SYSTEMS AND SPECIES* The HAL aquatics analysis did not deviate from the standard methodology documented in Olivero et al (2003)1. In fact, the hard work of the HAL aquatics assessment team significantly contributed to the formulation of this standard methodology for aquatic ecoregional assessments in the Northeast. Major Rivers Within HAL Allegheny River – The Allegheny River drains much of the region west of the Appalachians then flows westward to join the Mississippi. The river flows 325 miles and drains 11,778 square miles, flowing north from its source near Coudersport, PA, through Olean, NY, before turning south and entering the huge Allegheny Reservoir on the Pennsylvania/New York border. Below the reservoir, the river flows another 200 miles before it joins the Monongahela River in Pittsburgh to form the Ohio River, which empties into the Mississippi and eventually flows into the Gulf of Mexico below New Orleans, Louisiana. Nearly 72 percent of the Allegheny River watershed is covered in forest. Along its course the river and its tributaries cross through both glaciated and unglaciated landforms. This journey gives the river much of its unique physical and biological characteristics. The Allegheny River also passes through 22 counties, 2 states, the Allegheny National Forest, Allegany State Forest (NY), thousands of acres of state game lands, and 85-miles of Allegheny National Wild and Scenic River corridor. Delaware River – The Delaware is the longest undammed river east of the Mississippi, extending 330 miles from the confluence of its East and West branches at Hancock, New York to the mouth of the Delaware Bay.
