EPSTEIN, J"Ac1K B. EPSTEIN, WALTER J. SPINK, and DAVID s. JENNINGS ABSTRACT Complex lateral and vertieal facies changes involving lagoonal, barrier-beach, biohermal, and shallow- to de,ep--water neritic lithofacies occur within Upper Silurian and Lower Devonian strata in southeasternmost New York, New Jersey, and northeastern Pennsylvania. The Decker to Oriskany interval increases in clastic content from the New Yor]i:-New Jersey border to southwest of Bossards­ ville, Pa. Recognition of these diverse facies has resulted in a modification and refinement of Upper Silurian and Lower Devonian nomenclature in New Jersey and northeastern Pennsylvania. The Decker Formation is divided into two members: the Wallpack Center Member (new name) and the Clove Brook Member (new name) . Three members are recognized within the Rondout Formation: the Duttonville Mt~mber (new name), Whiteport Dolomite Member, and Mashipa.cong Member (new name). The Manlius Limestone has been re­ stricted to northeasternmost New Jersey and New York and includes only the Thacher Member. The Coeymans Formation includes, from bottom to top, a slightly arenaceous limestone (Depue Limestone Member, new name) , an arenaceous limestone to calcareous pebbly sandstone (Peters Valley Member, new name) , an arenaceous and argillaceous limestone (Shawnee Island Member, new name), and a cal­ careous sandstone and oolcareous quartz-pebble conglomerate (Stormville Mem­ ber) in northeastern Pennsylvania and most of New Jersey. Biohermal and nonbiohermal. facies are recognized in the Shawnee Island Member. In south­ easternmost New York, the Coeymans is restricted to approximately 30-40 feet of slightly argillaceous medium- to coarse-grained limestone (Ravena Mem­ ber). The Kalkberg LimestonE~ grades into the Stormville and Shawnee Island Members of the Coeymans near Wallpack Center, N.J. The New Scotland Formation has been divided into two members, the Flatbrookville (new name) below and the Maskenozha (new name) above. Argillaceous limestone between the New Scotland and Port Ewen Formations has been designated the Minisink Limestone (new name) . INTRODUCTION Complex facies changes occur within Upper· Silurian and Lower Devonian strata between Cuddebackville, N.Y., and Bossardsville, Pa.. , a distance of approximately 5!) miles (fig. 1).

  • Wallkill River National Wildlife Refuge Comprehensive Conservation Plan February 2009 This Blue Goose, Designed by J.N
    U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service Wallkill River National Wildlife Refuge Comprehensive Conservation Plan February 2009 This blue goose, designed by J.N. “Ding” Darling, has become the symbol of the National Wildlife Refuge System. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is the principal federal agency responsible for conserving, protecting, and enhancing fi sh, wildlife, plants, and their habitats for the continuing benefi t of the American people. The Service manages the 97-million acre National Wildlife Refuge System comprised of more than 548 national wildlife refuges and thousands of waterfowl production areas. It also operates 69 national fi sh hatcheries and 81 ecological services fi eld stations. The agency enforces federal wildlife laws, manages migratory bird populations, restores nationally signifi cant fi sheries, conserves and restores wildlife habitat such as wetlands, administers the Endangered Species Act, and helps foreign governments with their conservation efforts. It also oversees the Federal Assistance Program which distributes hundreds of millions of dollars in excise taxes on fi shing and hunting equipment to state wildlife agencies. Comprehensive Conservation Plans provide long term guidance for management decisions and set forth goals, objectives, and strategies needed to accomplish refuge purposes and identify the Service’s best estimate of future needs. These plans detail program planning levels that are sometimes substantially above current budget allocations and, as such, are primarily for Service strategic planning and program prioritization purposes. The plans do not constitute a commitment for staffi ng increases, operational and maintenance increases, or funding for future land acquisition.

The purpose of the Action Plan is to identify the Ashokan Watershed Stream Management Program’s planned activities, accomplishments, and next steps to achieve recommendations derived from stream management plans and stakeholder input. Program activities were reviewed by our Stakeholder Council at November 2019 and April 2020 meetings and their comments are reflected in this 2021-2023 work plan. The Action Plan is divided into key programmatic areas: A. Protecting and Enhancing Stream Stability and Water Quality B. Floodplain Management and Planning C. Highway Infrastructure Management in Conjunction with Streams D. Assisting Streamside Landowners (public and private) E. Protecting and Enhancing Aquatic and Riparian Habitat and Ecosystems F. Enhancing Public Access to Streams The Action Plan is updated annually. This proposed plan will run from June 1, 2021 until May 31, 2023, at which time the recommendations will be revised based on new stream assessments and program needs.
