    The Bear Report Fall 2009 a MESSAGE from the EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR JIM HALL 400 Years Ago Henry Hudson Passed Through Our Hudson Valley Noting Its Grandeur

    The Bear Report Fall 2009 A MESSAGE FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR JIM HALL 400 years ago Henry Hudson passed through our Hudson Valley noting its grandeur. Efforts to protect and invest in that magnificence have continued to be a priority of the Palisades Interstate Park Commission since its inception. Our founding families, the Perkinses, the Harrimans, and the Rockefellers created the standard of excellence we resolve to provide each year to over nine million park visitors. There is no shortage of calls for a return to nature and to that end, the revitalization of our State Parks continues to be PIPC’s top priority. Many of our facilities were built by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) and the Works Progress Administration (WPA) generations ago. Their efforts remind us that when you invest in parks everyone feels better. Undeterred by budget cuts and financial uncertainty, we will continue to find creative ways to raise funds, awareness, and opportunities in order for the Palisades Interstate Parks system to flourish and remain the glorious resource it has been for a century. ~ Jim Hall ~ THE CONSERVANCY HONORS The Perkins Family On Thursday, June 4, 2009 the Palisades Parks Conservancy was privileged to honor the Perkins family, long considered the first family of the Commission. Longtime Hudson River Valley residents, they have blazed a path of philanthropy and action that has yielded dozens of parks, museums, cultural centers, farms, monuments, amusements, and the PIPC Group Camp concept that has served tens of thousands of children of all ages for nearly a century. Their belief in nature as the best medicine of all has had a ripple effect worldwide since George W.

    APPENDIX 1. A Selection of Biodiversity Conservation Agencies & Programs A variety of state agencies and programs, in addition to the NY Natural Heritage Program, partner with OPRHP on biodiversity conservation and planning. This appendix also describes a variety of statewide and regional biodiversity conservation efforts that complement OPRHP’s work. NYS BIODIVERSITY RESEARCH INSTITUTE The New York State Biodiversity Research Institute is a state-chartered organization based in the New York State Museum who promotes the understanding and conservation of New York’s biological diversity. They administer a broad range of research, education, and information transfer programs, and oversee a competitive grants program for projects that further biodiversity stewardship and research. In 1996, the Biodiversity Research Institute approved funding for the Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation to undertake an ambitious inventory of its lands for rare species, rare natural communities, and the state’s best examples of common communities. The majority of inventory in state parks occurred over a five-year period, beginning in 1998 and concluding in the spring of 2003. Funding was also approved for a sixth year, which included all newly acquired state parks and several state parks that required additional attention beyond the initial inventory. Telephone: (518) 486-4845 Website: www.nysm.nysed.gov/bri/ NYS DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION The Department of Environmental Conservation’s (DEC) biodiversity conservation efforts are handled by a variety of offices with the department. Of particular note for this project are the NY Natural Heritage Program, Endangered Species Unit, and Nongame Unit (all of which are in the Division of Fish, Wildlife, & Marine Resources), and the Division of Lands & Forests.
