Assessment of Public Comment on Draft Trout Stream Management Plan
Assessment of public comments on draft New York State Trout Stream Management Plan OCTOBER 27, 2020 Andrew M. Cuomo, Governor | Basil Seggos, Commissioner A draft of the Fisheries Management Plan for Inland Trout Streams in New York State (Plan) was released for public review on May 26, 2020 with the comment period extending through June 25, 2020. Public comment was solicited through a variety of avenues including: • a posting of the statewide public comment period in the Environmental Notice Bulletin (ENB), • a DEC news release distributed statewide, • an announcement distributed to all e-mail addresses provided by participants at the 2017 and 2019 public meetings on trout stream management described on page 11 of the Plan [353 recipients, 181 unique opens (58%)], and • an announcement distributed to all subscribers to the DEC Delivers Freshwater Fishing and Boating Group [138,122 recipients, 34,944 unique opens (26%)]. A total of 489 public comments were received through e-mail or letters (Appendix A, numbered 1-277 and 300-511). 471 of these comments conveyed specific concerns, recommendations or endorsements; the other 18 comments were general statements or pertained to issues outside the scope of the plan. General themes to recurring comments were identified (22 total themes), and responses to these are included below. These themes only embrace recommendations or comments of concern. Comments that represent favorable and supportive views are not included in this assessment. Duplicate comment source numbers associated with a numbered theme reflect comments on subtopics within the general theme. Theme #1 The statewide catch and release (artificial lures only) season proposed to run from October 16 through March 31 poses a risk to the sustainability of wild trout populations and the quality of the fisheries they support that is either wholly unacceptable or of great concern, particularly in some areas of the state; notably Delaware/Catskill waters. -

Public Fishing Rights Neversink River
Public Fishing Rights Maps Neversink River Photo taken by Ed Ostapczuk About Public Fishing Rights Public Fishing Rights (PFR’s) are perma- nent easements purchased by the NYSDEC from willing landowners, giving anglers the right to fish and walk along the bank (usually a 33’ strip on one or both banks of the stream). This right is for the purpose of fishing only and no other purpose. Treat the land with respect to insure the continu- ation of this right and privilege. Fishing privileges may be available on some other private lands with permission of the land owner. Courtesy toward the land-owner and respect for their property will insure their continued use.

A Feasibility Study for the Hancock Heritage Center
DRAFT Feasibility Study for the Hancock Heritage Center by Adam Blond Robert Owen Robert Carr John Stewart Tim Donovan Glen Stollberger Kim Foster Laura Sullivan Katy Johnson Chad Wagner Katie Marsh Steven Woods Tom Mattioli Edited by: Diane Kuehn Assistant Professor Fall, 2007 Tourism and Commercial Recreation (FOR 476/676) SUNY ESF 1 Introduction Hancock, N.Y., is located in the Catskill region of New York, roughly 40 miles southeast of Binghamton and 140 miles northwest of New York City. It is located at the confluence of the east and west branches of the Delaware River, the longest free-flowing river in the east. The natural resources of this area are astounding, providing Hancock residents and visitors with tremendous recreation opportunities. An industry-based history and blooming art culture of the area are important sources of community pride that need to be shared between residents of all ages. The purpose of this tourism plan is to assess the potential for establishing a heritage center in the village of Hancock. The Hancock Heritage Center (HHC) would act as a gathering place for local residents for community activities, and as the center for information and education about the natural, historic, and cultural resources of the Hancock area for visitors. Certain concerns of residents and issues facing the Hancock area need to be considered before HHC development and promotion can occur. These concerns and issues are outlined below, as are the proposed vision, goals, and educational theme for the HHC. Following these report sections is the class’s assessment of local resources, attractions, and the potential heritage center site, as well as recommendations for the development of the HHC. -
Montague Township 4Th Grade Bus Tour June 4, 2015
Montague Township 4th Grade Bus Tour June 4, 2015 “Indians, the American Revolutionary War, and the Civil War” From the Montague School Driveway, make a right onto Rt 206 North, towards the Milford Bridge. On your left where you see the baseball field is the beginning of the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area. This is a very large park that is on both sides of the Delaware River in both New Jersey and in Pennsylvania. Montague is the northern most part of the park on the New Jersey side. Most of the property along the river from this ball field, past the Montague/Milford Bridge, almost all the way to Port Jervis, is part of the National Park Service. This Park includes the Nelden-Roberts Stonehouse, the Minisink Reformed Church, the Foster-Armstrong House, and the Grange. Continue right along Rt 206 North, do not turn onto Clove Road. After passing Clove Road, look for driveway on the right for the Nelden-Roberts Stonehouse. Pull right into the driveway and turn the bus around so that the children can enter the front of the building. The ground is solid under all the grass area, so you can turn and park wherever you want to. If you back into the back area, the students can see the water pump and outhouse from inside the bus. We’re going to be stopping now at the Nelden-Roberts Stonehouse, where two members of MARCH, the Montague Historical Society, are going to be giving us a tour of the first and second floor of one of the original schoolhouses in Montague. -
1 John Van Tuyl
John Van Tuyl - the Man1 and the Building of Fort Van Tyle W. Kent Van Tyle Contact: [email protected] 8/13/2020 John Van Tuyl – frontiersman, patriot, farmer and father John Van Tuyl, grandson of Isaac Van Tuyl and Sarah Lakerman of Staten Island, was born about 1740-45 in either Somerset or Morris County, NJ, likely the third of four brothers (Isaac, Arthur, John and Abraham). He grew up on the New Jersey frontier in the farming family of his father John Sr, likely in the Roxbury area of Morris County.2 As a youth he was undoubtedly influenced by the companionship of his older brother and avid frontiersman Isaac, about 5-7 years his senior, who served in 1757 during the French and Indian War in the Morris County, NJ militia3 and during the Revolution under Captain JR Dewitt of Mamakating in the Ulster County, NY militia.4 Likely an experienced hunter, after his marriage to Catherine (Terwilliger) Westfall in Sussex Co, NJ in 1761, Isaac supplemented his family income by collecting wolf bounties5, 49 pounds sterling for 14 wolves in 1768. John Sr, his sister Gertrude and her husband John Courson, followed the same migration path from Staten Island, through Somerest and Morris counties of New Jersey into the northwest New Jersey frontier with Gertrude and John Courson settling in Sussex Co, NJ in the 1760s.6 It is unclear why John Van Tuyl and his father John Sr elected to settle in Greenville, NY sometime in the decade prior to the Revolutionary War. The Neversink and Wallkill river valleys provided much more fertile farm land than the hilly, rocky soil of Greenville; however by the decade before the Revolutionary War, these more desirable areas had been settled and were being actively farmed.
