New York Freshwater Fishing Regulations Guide: 2015-16
NEW YORK Freshwater FISHING2015–16 OFFICIAL REGULATIONS GUIDE VOLUME 7, ISSUE NO. 1, APRIL 2015 Fishing for Muskie www.dec.ny.gov Most regulations are in effect April 1, 2015 through March 31, 2016 MESSAGE FROM THE GOVERNOR New York: A State of Angling Opportunity When it comes to freshwater fishing, no state in the nation can compare to New York. Our Great Lakes consistently deliver outstanding fishing for salmon and steelhead and it doesn’t stop there. In fact, New York is home to four of the Bassmaster’s top 50 bass lakes, drawing anglers from around the globe to come and experience great smallmouth and largemouth bass fishing. The crystal clear lakes and streams of the Adirondack and Catskill parks make New York home to the very best fly fishing east of the Rockies. Add abundant walleye, panfish, trout and trophy muskellunge and northern pike to the mix, and New York is clearly a state of angling opportunity. Fishing is a wonderful way to reconnect with the outdoors. Here in New York, we are working hard to make the sport more accessible and affordable to all. Over the past five years, we have invested more than $6 million, renovating existing boat launches and developing new ones across the state. This is in addition to the 50 new projects begun in 2014 that will make it easier for all outdoors enthusiasts to access the woods and waters of New York. Our 12 DEC fish hatcheries produce 900,000 pounds of fish each year to increase fish populations and expand and improve angling opportunities. -

Nonpoint Source Implementation of Phase II Phosphorous TMDLS In
Interim Report Nonpoint Source Implementation Of The Phase II Phosphorus TMDLs In The New York City Watershed March 2002 Prepared in accordance with the New York City Watershed Memorandum of Agreement (January 1997). New York State Department of Environmental Conservation Division of Water P R E F A C E This report represents the next step in the implementation process for phosphorus load reductions in the New York City (NYC) Watershed. It has been prepared in accordance with the NYC Watershed Memorandum of Agreement (MOA, January 1997) and focuses on nonpoint source (NPS) implementation efforts that can contribute to the attainment of Phase II Phosphorus Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs). The report provides a snapshot of the current status of implementation programs, projects and activities and next steps toward a final implementation plan. It has been released as “Interim” since it does not include all of the specific implementation components outlined in the MOA and expanded upon in the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA’s) October 16, 2000 implementation strategy letter. The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) remains committed to the development of a final implementation plan. The Phase II Phosphorus TMDLs identified eight NYC reservoirs as water quality limited and needing nonpoint (NPS) reductions. These reservoirs are in the Croton portion of the City’s watershed and are located east of the Hudson River . Thus, the timing of the final implementation plan will depend on the findings and completion of Croton Planning in Putnam and Westchester Counties, as well as the implementation of Phase II Stormwater Regulations and continued monitoring in the Croton Watershed. -

Evaluating Management Scenarios in the Croton Watershed
Evaluating Management Scenarios in the Croton Watershed K Moffett, A Atamian, C How, L Wordsman, K Kane Abstract The Croton Watershed is the oldest portion of New York City’s drinking water supply system and is undergoing continued development. To achieve water quality goals, a GIS-based risk assessment methodology was developed to help the New York City Department of Environmental Protection (NYCDEP) optimize watershed management efforts and focus limited resources on critical areas to achieve maximum water quality benefits. The methodology was implemented using GIS raster processing and compiled in a Decision Support Tool (DST) to assist the NYCDEP in evaluating different management alternatives. With this tool, NYCDEP can systematically prioritize its watershed monitoring, protection, and restoration efforts, provide local stakeholders with technical information for their own watershed programs, and track development and mitigation projects in the watershed. Introduction The New York City water supply system provides approximately 1.3 billion gallons of high quality drinking water to almost nine million New Yorkers every day — eight million city residents and a million residents of Westchester, Putnam, Orange and Ulster Counties — plus the millions of tourists and commuters who visit the City throughout the year. The source of this superior water supply is a network of 19 reservoirs in a 1,969 square-mile watershed that extends 125 miles north and west of New York City. Figure 1 New York City Water Supply System The Croton System is the oldest of New York City’s three surface water systems. It supplies approximately 10 percent of New York City’s fresh water from 10 reservoirs and three controlled lakes in Putnam and Westchester Counties. -

New York Freswater Fishing Regulations
NEW YORK Freshwater FISHING2013–14 OFFICIAL REGULATIONS GUIDE VL O UME 6, ISSUE No. 1, OCTOBER 2013 Fly Fishing the Catskills New York State Department of Environmental Conservation www.dec.ny.gov Most regulations are in effect October 1, 2013 through September 30, 2014 MESSAGE FROM THE GOVERNOR New York’s Open for Hunting and Fishing Welcome to another great freshwater fishing season in New York, home to an extraor- dinary variety of waterbodies and diverse fisheries. From the historic Hudson River to the majestic Great Lakes, and with hundreds of lakes and thousands of miles of streams from the Adirondacks to the Fingers Lakes, New York offers excitement and challenges for anglers that cannot be beat! The Bass Anglers Sportsman Society selected five of our waters – Cayuga Lake, Oneida Lake, Lake Champlain, Thousand Islands/St. Lawrence River and Lake Erie for their list of the Top 100 Bass Waters of 2013, with the last two listed in the top 20. This year’s guide is focused on trout fishing in the Catskills, also a nationally renowned destination for trout anglers. We continue our efforts to make New York, which is already ranked 2nd in the United States for recreational fishing economic impact, even more attractive as a tourism destination. My “New York Open for Fishing and Hunting” initiative will simplify the purchase of sporting licenses in 2014 and, most importantly, reduce fees. In addition, we will spend more than $4 million to develop new boat launches and fishing access sites so we can expand opportunities for anglers. Over the past three years New York invested $2.5 million in the development of new boat launching facilities on Cuba Lake in Allegany County, the Upper Hudson River in Saratoga County, Lake Champlain in the City of Plattsburgh, and two new facilities on Lake Ontario - Point Peninsula Isthmus and Three Mile Bay, both in Jefferson County.
