Falls View Park - Overlooking the Majestic and Historic Cohoes Falls – Re-Opening to Visitors on Saturday, May 1St For Immediate Release Contact: Theresa Bourgeois Brookfield Renewable Contact: Julie Pelletier [email protected] [email protected] (518) 903-0142 (518) 480-1494 Falls View Park - Overlooking the Majestic and Historic Cohoes Falls – Re-opening to Visitors on Saturday, May 1st Cohoes, NY (April 29, 2021) – Visitors to Cohoes will once again have the opportunity to get an up-close view of the majestic and historic Cohoes Falls when Falls View Park re-opens to the public on Saturday, May 1st. Opened in 2008, the seasonal park is a creative public/private collaboration between Brookfield, the City of Cohoes, and the National Park Service’s Erie Canalway Heritage Corridor. “In many different ways the Cohoes Falls has been part of the heart of our economy for generations. It is a unique and special place,” Mayor Bill Keeler said. “For more than a dozen years, from May to November, as many as 20,000 visitors annually have been finding their way to the Cohoes Falls, onto the footbridge across the power canal, and into Falls View Park. They arrive by car, bicycle, and on foot to view this one-of-a-kind natural wonder and to learn the amazing background of this historic area in our community.” Cohoes Falls is one of the largest waterfalls – by width and volume – in the Eastern United States. Measuring 1000 feet across and with a vertical drop of 60 feet, it is the second largest waterfall in New York State, after Niagara Falls. “Brookfield Renewable is delighted to continue our partnership with the City of Cohoes. The installation of the new crosswalk provides a safer option for families and visitors to enjoy the picturesque park. Falls View Park offers a perfect spot to be outdoors and view the falls and will open on May 1st, marking its 13th year” said Andy Davis, Senior Director- Public Affairs, Brookfield Renewable. Open daily from dawn to dusk, the four-acre park, adjacent to Brookfield Renewable’s School Street Hydropower facility offers spectacular views of the Cohoes Falls. Sightseers experience a wide range of recreational and historical features, including an 80-person amphitheater, picnic area, and ADA compliant fishing platforms. Interpretive panels and signage highlight the historical and geological significance of the falls and Mohawk River. Located on North Mohawk Street, just north of the former Harmony Mills, visitors enjoy fishing, hiking, birding, photography, and painting of the scenic falls. Addition of a solar-powered cross-walk This year Falls View Park opens with an added layer of safety, powered by the sun. Visitors parking in the municipal lot across from the park, will be able to cross the busy North Mohawk Street corridor with the assistance of solar-powered flashing lights mounted on a bright yellow cross walk sign, funded jointly by the City of Cohoes and Brookfield. “The addition of a clean-energy cross-walk system at this location adds an extra level of safety for pedestrians by providing a much-needed early warning signal for vehicular traffic at this popular crossing,” said Cohoes City Planner Joe Seman-Graves. Confluence of History, Art, and Nature The Cohoes Falls sits at the confluence of important history of the community, the region, and the country. This includes Native American history interlinked with the U.S. Constitution, transportation history linked to the Erie Canal, and manufacturing history connected with knitting mills. Also of historic note: the bones of the Cohoes Mastodon were discovered just below the Cohoes Falls, when the Harmony Mills were being constructed. “The Falls are a beautiful natural wonder. They also help tell the story of Cohoes, from the Ice Age origin of the Falls and the Mastodon, to Native American legend and history, to the rise of Cohoes as an industrial center through the power of water,” said Daniele Cherniak, President of the Spindle City Historic Society. In addition to seasonal access via the Falls View Park, visitors view the Cohoes Falls year-round from Overlook Park, a block off of North Mohawk Street, at the end of School Street, and from other vistas along North Mohawk Street. Bicyclists and pedestrians using the Mohawk-Hudson Bike Path can easily take a short detour off the path, east on Manor Avenue to Falls View Park, or any of the nearby viewing areas. “Falls View Park, Overlook Park, and the spaces in between, above, and below provide the art community with multiple views to paint and photograph the falls, as artists have done for generations. In winter when much of the river is frozen, Bald Eagles seeking the open waters to fish are numerous around the falls – and photographers cluster along the wall in “Overlook Park” to capture images of America’s symbol,” said Dave Koschnick, President of Choose Cohoes for Art. The City of Cohoes, in collaboration with Brookfield, and with other businesses and organizations, is exploring opportunities for COVID-safe programming at Falls View Park, Cohoes Falls Over Look Park, and the adjacent Craner Park and Erie Canal Locks. “There is just so much that most people don’t know about the area around Cohoes Falls. Our goal is to highlight this rich history. We know that sightseers, photographers, painters, bird lovers, history buffs and other enthusiasts make their way to the Cohoes Falls by the thousands year round. We want to build on that interest by creating events and other opportunities that bring the community together and brings others to Cohoes to learn about and take advantage of this fascinating but often overlooked historic gem,” said Amanda Primeau, Executive Assistant to the Mayor, responsible for the design and organization of many city events.

Wrona, Branch Chief Projects Branch 2 Division of License Renewal Office of Nuclear Reactor Program US Nuclear Regulatory Commission Washington, DC 20555-0001 RE: Draft Biological Opinion for License Renewal of the Indian Point Nuclear Generating Unit Nos. 2 and 3 Dear Mr. Wrona: Please find enclosed a copy of the draft Biological Opinion on the effects of the operation of the Indian Point Nuclear Generating Station Units 2 and 3 (Indian Point) pursuant to a renewed operating license that the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (Commission) proposes to issue to Entergy Nuclear Operations, Inc. (Entergy). I understand that Entergy requested a copy of a draft Opinion from you. In light of the schedule for consultation, please provide your comments and a copy of Entergy's comments to me by September 6, 2011. While I am providing you a copy of the draft Opinion now in light of the consultation schedule, I would also welcome your comments on whether initiation of consultation on this matter was appropriate at this particular time. When initiating consultation with NOAA's National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), the Commission staff defined the proposed action as the operation of Indian Point for the new 20-year license term under the same conditions that appear in the existing license and the existing State Pollution Discharge Elimination System (SPDES) permit. However, as most recently discussed in a letter to me from the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC), the proposed action seems very uncertain given NYSDEC has denied Entergy's request for Clean Water Act Section 401 Water Quality Certification based on its initial and amended application.

  • National Significance and Historical Context
    2.1 2 National Signifi cance and Historical Context NATIONAL SIGNIFICANCE OVERVIEW Th e Erie Canal is the most successful and infl uential human-built waterway and one of the most important works of civil engineering and construction in North America. It facilitated and shaped the course of settlement of the North- east, Midwest, and Great Plains, knit together the Atlantic Seaboard with the area west of the Appalachian Mountains, solidifi ed New York City’s place as the young nation’s principal seaport and commercial center, and became a central element forging the national identity. New York’s canal system, including the Erie Canal and its laterals – principally the Champlain, Oswego, and Cayuga-Seneca Canals – opened the interior of the continent. Built through the only low-level gap between the Appalachian Mountain chain and the Adirondack Mountains, the Erie Canal provided one of the principal routes for migration and an economical and reliable means for transporting agricultural products and manufactured goods between the American interior, the eastern seaboard, and Europe. Th e Erie Canal was a heroic feat of early 19th century engineering and construc- tion, and at 363 miles long, more than twice the length of any canal in Europe. Photo: It was without precedent in North America, designed and built through sparsely Postcard image of canal basin in Clinton Square, Syracuse, ca. 1905 settled territory by surveyors, engineers, contractors, and laborers who had to learn much of their craft on the job. Engineers and builders who got their start on New York’s canals went on to construct other canals, railroads, and public water supplies throughout the new nation.

  • Freeze-Up Ice Jams
    ICE JAM REFERENCE AND TROUBLE SPOTS Ice Jam Reference Ice jams cause localized flooding and can quickly cause serious problems in the NWS Albany Hydrologic Service Area (HSA). Rapid rises behind the jams can lead to temporary lakes and flooding of homes and roads along rivers. A sudden release of a jam can lead to flash flooding below with the addition of large pieces of ice in the wall of water which will damage or destroy most things in its path. Ice jams are of two forms: Freeze up and Break up. Freeze up jams usually occur early to mid winter during extremely cold weather. Break up jams usually occur mid to late winter with thaws. NWS Albany Freeze Up Jam Criteria: Three Consecutive Days with daily average temperatures <= 0°F NWS Albany Break Up Jam Criteria: 1) Ice around 1 foot thick or more? And 2) Daily Average Temperature forecast to be >= 42°F or more? Daily Average Temperature = (Tmax+Tmin)/2 Rainfall/snowmelt with a thaw will enhance the potential for break up jams as rising water helps to lift and break up the ice. A very short thaw with little or no rain/snowmelt may not be enough to break up thick ice. ** River forecasts found at: http://water.weather.gov/ahps2/forecasts.php?wfo=aly will not take into account the effect of ice. ** Ice jams usually form in preferred locations in the NWS Albany HSA. See the “Ice Jam Trouble Spots” below for a list of locations where ice jams frequently occur. Ice Jam Trouble Spots **This is not an all inclusive list, but rather a list of locations where ice jams have been reported in the past.

Though many New England tribes such as the Mahican used the lands in this area, we explored the ways that the Mohawk people in particular related to water in terms of food resources, including fishing, hunting, and agriculture; travel, trade, and warfare along the area's waterways; the medicinal springs of Saratoga; spirituality and culture; and current water-use issues. Preface Joseph Bruchac, a Native American local of the Saratoga region, introduces a book of Native American stories by describing the relationships native peoples of North America have with the Earth. “The Earth is not something to be bought and sold, something to be used and mistreated,” he writes. “It is, quite simply, the source of our lives—our Mother” (Caduto and Bruchac 1991). He continues to explain the role of native people on the Earth as entrusted with a mission to maintain the natural balance of the Earth. In Native American philosophy, life is seen as a great circle in which each person is related to everyone and everything.
