Population According to the U.S. Census, the 2010 population for the Village of Fort Plain was 2,322; of which, 369 were citizens over the age of 65. That encompasses 15.9 percent of the population. Location The Village of Fort Plain is located within the borders of the Town of Minden in the western portion of Montgomery County. It shares its boundaries with the Villages of Minden and Palatine to the north, Village of Nelliston to the east, Villages of Minden and Canajoharie to the south and the Village of Minden to the west. Brief History The Village of Fort Plain is built on the site of a Revolutionary War fort. The fort was constructed in 1776 and a blockhouse was maintained here throughout the war. The Village of Fort Plain became an incorporated village in 1823. The opening of the Erie Canal was an economic boon. It became a center of manufacturing during the nineteenth century for textiles and furniture for the Village. Governing Body Format The Village of Fort Plain is governed by the Village Board, consisting of four trustees and the mayor. This governing body will be responsible for the adoption and implementation of this plan. Growth/Development Trends The Village is fully developed at this point, with no further substantial development envisioned. 9.11.3 Natural Hazard Event History Specific to the Municipality Montgomery County has a history of natural and non-natural hazard events as detailed in Volume I, Section 5.0 of this plan. A summary of historical events is provided in each of the hazard profiles and includes a chronology of events that have affected the County and its municipalities.

Information regarding specific damages is included if available based on reference material or local sources. Table 9.11-1. Hazard Event History FEMA Declaration # County Dates of Event Event Type (If Applicable) Designated? Summary of Damages/Losses The Otsquago Creek was seven feet higher than its previously recorded high mark. This led to flooding that caused stream bank failure along sections of the Otsquago and Canajoharie Creeks, as well as along Lasselville Road in St. Johnsville. Over 100 homes and June 26 – July 10, Severe Storms and DR-1429 Yes numerous businesses in the Village of 2013 Flooding Fort Plain along the Otsquago Creek were inundated by floodwaters, which undermined building foundations, destroyed belongings, and in some cases washed entire structures away.

(2) Total building and content losses from the claims file provided by FEMA Region 2. (3) The policies inside and outside of the flood zones is based on the latitude and longitude provided by FEMA Region 2 in the policy file. Notes: FEMA noted that where there is more than one entry for a property, there may be more than one policy in force or more than one GIS possibility. A zero percentage denotes less than 1/100th percentage and not zero damages or vulnerability as may be the case. Critical Facilities The table below presents HAZUS-MH estimates of the damage and loss of use to critical facilities in the community as a result of a 1- and 0.2-percent annual chance flood events.

(1) HAZUS-MH 2.1 provides a general indication of the maximum restoration time for 100% operations. Clearly, a great deal of effort is needed to quickly restore essential facilities to full functionality; therefore this will be an indication of the maximum downtime (HAZUS-MH 2.1 User Manual). (2) In some cases, a facility may be located in the DFIRM flood hazard boundary; however HAZUS did not calculate potential loss. This may be because the depth of flooding does not amount to any damages to the structure according to the depth damage function used in HAZUS for that facility type. (3) Dams located in the floodplain are not listed in the table above. HAZUS does not calculate potential losses to a dam as a result of a flood event. Other Vulnerabilities Identified by Municipality Montgomery County was selected to participate in the statewide competitive program, New York Rising Community Reconstruction Program. Projects addressing flooding vulnerabilities of infrastructure, natural resources, private and public properties, and the recovery of commerce in the Village of Fort Plain were identified. Issues and concerns of this nature were also addressed specifically by the Village of Fort Plain in Letters of Intent (LOI) submitted for the FEMA Hazard Mitigation Grant Program. Action Worksheets located at the end of this annex provide detail on the projects. 9.11.5 Capability Assessment This section identifies the following capabilities of the local jurisdiction: Planning and regulatory capability Administrative and technical capability Fiscal capability Community classification NFIP Integration of mitigation planning into existing and future planning mechanisms Planning and Regulatory Capability The table below summarizes the regulatory tools that are available to the municipality.

(DTI) to expand its Brookman Corners compressor station in Montgomery County, which would expose families and children in the vicinity to high levels of pollutants dangerous to human health. (FERC Docket #CP14-497-000) Please see the attached information that we provided to NYS-DEC project manager, Chris Hogan, in a meeting with him and his staff on March 19, 2015. During that meeting we discussed errors and misrepresentations by DTI, including erroneous air dispersion modeling which neglects impacts to the Otsquago Valley and village of Fort Plain. However we also recommended several design and development improvements, described herein, that could significantly reduce those emission levels and other impacts to the valley, including Otsquago Creek. Otsego 2000 maintains that this relevant and factual information should be reviewed before agencies consider air and water resource permits for this project. Respectfully, our objective is to encourage dialogue and avoid circumstances that often result in litigation, resentment of industry, and disillusion with government agencies entrusted to protect the public. Our organization seeks to achieve positive solutions whenever possible, so we urge your active support and involvement to facilitate a better outcome in these proceedings.

  • 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.

  • Industrial Water Systems in the Headwaters: a Preliminary Surface Survey
    Industrial Water Systems in the Headwaters: A Preliminary Surface Survey Alexander R. Thomas, Ph.D. Achim Koeddermann, Ph.D. Introduction This is the first in a series of studies that examine the use of water-powered industrial technologies in the Headwaters Region of New York State. Throughout much of the nineteenth century, industrial activity in the region, as well as throughout the northeastern United States, was driven primarily (though not exclusively) by water power. This technology was well-suited to the mountainous interior of the region, and it is not surprising that the earliest industrial activity in the country occurred in New England and upstate New York. Much of the early industrial activity was oriented toward local consumption, and nearly every community—even tiny farming hamlets—contained a blacksmith shop, a saw mill, and a grist mill. Early in the region’s history, however, commodity-driven industrial activity aimed at export developed along fast-running streams suitable for water-powered technologies. The first textile mill in the United States was built in Pawtucket, Rhode Island, in 1790. In 1808, the first textile mill in New York State was built by a migrant from Rhode Island in New York Mills, a village on the east bank of Sauquoit Creek near present-day Utica. Within 50 years, Sauquoit Creek, with its 1,000-plus foot drop in just 17 miles, became among the most heavily industrial corridors in the world, with dozens of millponds, races, and factories lining both sides of the creek. The current study reports on an initial survey of water-industry sites conducted by research fellows during the spring of 2012.

  • Assessing Flood Risk in a Changing Climate in the Mohawk and Hudson River Basins
    Final Report- Assessing Flood Risk in a Changing Climate in the Mohawk and Hudson River Basins Stephen Shaw SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry, Syracuse, NY The report is divided into five different sections: 1. Hudson River – Controls on Peak River Stage 2. Causative Processes of Flooding on Tributaries to the Main Stem of the Hudson and Mohawk 3. Controls on Precipitation Intensity in the U.S. and Hudson Valley 4. Ice Jams on the Mohawk River – A simple model to predict future ice jams 5. Fact Sheet for Public: “Mohawk River Flooding: Will the future differ from the past?” The first four sections reflect basic research that has gone into better understanding processes that dictate discharge and stage on the Hudson , Mohawk, and tributaries. Work from Sections 3 and 4 (precipitation intensity and ice jams) is ongoing. We plan to have publications on these two topics complete by the end of the spring. Work on Sections 1 and 2 is complete and provides some helpful conclusions that can provide insight into predicting potential future flooding. Section 5 includes a draft fact sheet that draws from the basic research of Sections 1 to 4. The fact sheet is not a summary of the basic research, but it instead borrows bits and pieces of the basic research to make points as necessary. We are happy to incorporate any suggested revisions into this document as we presume it will be the deliverable from this project most suitable for distributing to the general public or policy makers. Section 1 – Controls on Peak River Stage in the Hudson Unlike many rivers, the main channel of the Hudson River up to Albany has a very low channel slope and is sometimes likened to being similar to a fjord.

  • In Defense of the Facts an Ongoing Search for Fort Plank
    -1- IN DEFENSE OF THE FACTS AN ONGOING SEARCH FOR FORT PLANK Since the initial publication of the "The Bloodied Mohawk" a plethora of new data has been collected. All reviews of the tome, with the exception of two - by the same critic, the first dated November of 2001 and the second written in August of 2010 , have been positive. However, his criticisms have led the author to carefully reexamine his own work, and after much consideration the author has found a need to arise "In Defense of the Facts" in "An Ongoing Search For Fort Plank". Over the succeeding 225+ years since its construction in 1778, Revolutionary War historians have stated multiple locations for Fort Plank [see “Fort Plank’s Stated Locations”]. William W. Campbell (1806-1881) is the first known non-contemporary to have stated a location for Fort Plank:1 Sir John Johnson settled at Fox’s Mills. about eight miles above Fort Plank, (or as it now called Fort Plain), and two miles below the upper Mohawk castle. Campbell was later quoted by Colonel William L. Stone (1792-1844); who, when writing his Life of Brant, employed Thomas Sammons,2 a Tryon County militiaman who had taken part in the defense of Fort Plank on August 2, 1780 to review the truth and veracity of William W. Campbell’s, The Annals of Tryon County.3 And thus the controversy began. It seems quite remarkable that Stone not only copied Campbell’s statement concerning the location of Fort Plank, but universally accepted it as true, despite his independent review of the facts.
