Minority and low-income communities have historically born a disproportionate burden of the environmental harm associated with economic progress while reaping few of the benefits.

  • D. Rail Transit
    Chapter 9: Transportation (Rail Transit) D. RAIL TRANSIT EXISTING CONDITIONS The subway lines in the study area are shown in Figures 9D-1 through 9D-5. As shown, most of the lines either serve only portions of the study area in the north-south direction or serve the study area in an east-west direction. Only one line, the Lexington Avenue line, serves the entire study area in the north-south direction. More importantly, subway service on the East Side of Manhattan is concentrated on Lexington Avenue and west of Allen Street, while most of the population on the East Side is concentrated east of Third Avenue. As a result, a large portion of the study area population is underserved by the current subway service. The following sections describe the study area's primary, secondary, and other subway service. SERVICE PROVIDED Primary Subway Service The Lexington Avenue line (Nos. 4, 5, and 6 routes) is the only rapid transit service that traverses the entire length of the East Side of Manhattan in the north-south direction. Within Manhattan, southbound service on the Nos. 4, 5 and 6 routes begins at 125th Street (fed from points in the Bronx). Local service on the southbound No. 6 route ends at the Brooklyn Bridge station and the last express stop within Manhattan on the Nos. 4 and 5 routes is at the Bowling Green station (service continues into Brooklyn). Nine of the 23 stations on the Lexington Avenue line within Manhattan are express stops. Five of these express stations also provide transfer opportunities to the other subway lines within the study area.

  • Chapter 1.0: Purpose and Need
    Chapter 1.0: Purpose and Need A. INTRODUCTION On October 29, 2012, Hurricane Sandy made landfall, greatly impacting the east side of Manhattan and highlighting the need for the City of New York (the City) to increase its efforts to protect vulnerable populations and critical infrastructure during extreme coastal storm events (the 100- year flood events with Sea Level Rise projections to the 2050s1), referred to herein as the design storm event. Hurricane Sandy, a presidentially declared disaster, caused extensive coastal flooding, resulting in significant damage to residential and commercial property, open space, and critical transportation, power, and water and sewer infrastructure, which in turn affected medical and other essential services. As part of its plan to address vulnerability to such major flooding, the City is proposing the East Side Coastal Resiliency (ESCR) Project, which involves the construction of a coastal flood protection system along a portion of the east side of Manhattan (see Figure 1.0-1) and related improvements to City infrastructure (the proposed project). The area that would be protected under the proposed project (the protected area) includes lands within the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) 100-year special flood hazard area (SFHA), as well as those projected to be within the 100-year flood hazard area in the 2050s, taking into account the 90th percentile projection for sea level rise (see Figure 1.0-2). This includes portions of the Lower East Side and East Village neighborhoods, Stuyvesant Town, Peter Cooper Village, as well as East River Park and Stuyvesant Cove Park. Within the project area, the City is proposing to install a flood protection system generally located within City parkland and streets, which would consist of a combination of floodwalls, levees, closure structures (e.g., floodgates), and other infrastructure improvements to reduce the risk of flooding.

  • Chapter 23: Response to Comments on the SDEIS1
    Chapter 23: Response to Comments on the SDEIS1 A. INTRODUCTION This chapter summarizes and responds to all substantive comments on the Supplemental Draft Environmental Impact Statement (SDEIS) published in March 2003 for the Second Avenue Subway. Public review for the SDEIS began on March 2003, with publication and distribution of the document. The Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) held two public hearings to receive comments on the document: on May 12, 2003 in the auditorium of the Alexander Hamilton U.S. Custom House at One Bowling Green (Lower Manhattan); and on May 13, 2003, in the Hecksher Auditorium at El Museo del Barrio, 1230 Fifth Avenue (at 104th Street in East Harlem). The public comment period remained open until June 10, 2003. The SDEIS was circulated to involved and interested agencies and other parties and posted on the MTA’s website, and notice of its availability and the public hearing were published in the Federal Register on April 11, 2003. To advertise the public hearing, MTA published notices in the New York Post, Hoy, Amsterdam News, Chinese World Journal, and New York Daily News. In addition, information on the public hearing was posted on the MTA’s website, a notice of public hearing was mailed to all public officials and interested parties in the MTA service area; and a press release announcing the hearing was sent to all media outlets in the area. Bilingual signs announcing the hearing were posted in all MTA New York City Transit (NYCT) subway stations and on some buses. Brochures were handed out in major Manhattan East Side NYCT subway stations.

  • NYC TRANSIT's RESPONSE to DECEMBER 2010 BLIZZARD INTRODUCTION on Sunday, December 26, 2010 and the Early Hours of Monday, Dece
    MTA/OIG Report #2011-07 December 2011 NYC TRANSIT’S RESPONSE TO DECEMBER 2010 BLIZZARD Barry L. Kluger MTA Inspector General State of New York INTRODUCTION On Sunday, December 26, 2010 and the early hours of Monday, December 27, over two feet of snow fell on the New York metropolitan area accompanied by high winds. The blizzard was not predicted until just 24 hours before and hit New York City with even more force than anticipated. New York City Transit (NYC Transit) service was dramatically curtailed on both buses and subways by 9:00 PM. Many customers and employees traveling aboard subway cars and buses became stranded during the evening of the blizzard and as the night wore on. Their isolation increased by having little to no communication with outside parties. NYC Transit estimates that approximately 650 buses were stuck in the snow, while some 500 people were stranded aboard subway cars overnight. The recovery process was lengthy, with passengers still being rescued on Monday morning. Full service was not restored for several days. Following the storm and subsequent clean up, the Chairman of the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) charged the various MTA agencies (including NYC Transit) with conducting internal reviews of their responses to the December blizzard to identify weaknesses and make recommendations for improvement. Best practices from other transit properties were to be analyzed by MTA along with the need for long-term technological improvements in communication and storm response capability. In June 2011, MTA officials presented to the MTA Board the proposed final agency report on MTA Storm Performance Review.
