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.

  • 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.

  • Controls of Stream Chemistry and Fish Populations in the Neversink Watershed, Catskill Mountains, New York
    Prepared in cooperation with the New York City Department of Environmental Protection Controls of Stream Chemistry and Fish Populations in the Neversink Watershed, Catskill Mountains, New York he Neversink Watershed Study was initiated in 1991 to T develop an understanding of the key natural processes that control water quality within the forested, 166 km2 64 mi2), Neversink River watershed; part of the New York City drinking water supply system, in the Catskill Mountain region of New York. The study entailed (1) hydrological investigations of water movement from the atmosphere to streams, (2) biogeochemical investigations of nitrogen and calcium, important nutrients in forest and aquatic ecosystems whose availability has been altered by acidic deposition, (3) an investigation of elevational patterns in atmospheric deposition, and (4) fisheries investigations to determine the relative importance of physical habitat and acidic deposition in controlling the abundance and By Gregory B.

  • Relations of Environmental Factors with Mussel-Species Richness in the Neversink River, New York
    1 Prepared in cooperation with The Nature Conservancy and Sullivan County Division of Planning and Environmental Management Relations of Environmental Factors with Mussel-Species Richness in the Neversink River, New York Significant Findings • A 6-year study of mussel communities and their habitat in the Neversink River basin in southeastern New York found that the principal factors apparently affecting mussel-species richness were site (reach) elevation, drainage-area size, channel width, bottom- material composition, water velocity, shear stress at bankfull discharge, and water quality (acid- neutralizing capacity (ANC) and concentrations of calcium, phosphorus, and sulfate). Together these 10 factors explained as much as 94 percent of the variability in mussel-species richness across the watershed. Swollen wedgemussel (Alasmidonta varicosa) from the Neversink River. • The number of species in mussel communities throughout the basin typically increases in a downstream progression from zero or one species in upstream sites to as many as six species in downstream sites. • A recently removed dam in the lower part of the river may have confined populations of two rare mussel species to lower reaches of the Neversink River; its removal in 2004 could allow those species to populate additional reaches in the upper basin.

  • Implications for Clean Water Act Implementation
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Protecting and Restoring our Nation’s Waters: The Effects of Science, Law, and Policy on Clean Water Act Jurisdiction with a focus on the Arid West A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Environmental Science and Engineering by Forrest Brown Vanderbilt 2013 © Copyright by Forrest Brown Vanderbilt 2013 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Protecting and Restoring our Nation’s Waters: The Effects of Science, Law, and Policy on Clean Water Act Jurisdiction with a focus on the Arid West by Forrest Brown Vanderbilt Doctor of Environmental Science and Engineering University of California, Los Angeles, 2013 Professor Richard F. Ambrose, Chair Since its initial passage in 1972, the Clean Water Act has attempted to restore and protect our Nation’s waters. The definition of ‘our Nation’s waters’ has undergone periodic debate and scrutiny as the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and the Supreme Court have defined and redefined the standards for determining CWA jurisdiction. The Supreme Court’s most recent set of standards, including the “significant nexus” test, appear to both increase the uncertainty in what is regulated and increase the burden of proof for determining CWA jurisdiction. The Arid West was singled out in the most recent EPA and Corps joint jurisdictional guidance as a problematic area. Focusing on the Arid West, my dissertation evaluates the CWA jurisdiction process from three perspectives: law, policy, and ii science, and explores an understanding of the past, present, and potential future path of CWA jurisdiction.

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 2020-2022 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.
