Sponsor's memo
Title of bill
An act to amend the executive law, in relation to including the Chaumont River within the definition of "inland waterways" for the purposes of waterfront revitalization
Purpose of bill
This bill would designate Chaumont River and the Chaumont bay as inland waterways which would then be eligible for Department of State and Environmental Protection Fund for waterfront revitalization grants.
Summary of provisions
This bill would amend subdivision 4 of section 911 of the executive law to add Chaumont river and bay to the list of designated state inland waterways.
Existing law
Executive law section 911 (4) currently includes 24 rivers among the state's listed designated inland waterways.
Justification
By adding Chaumont River and the Chaumont Bay as inland waterways, the communities along its banks will be eligible for Department of State and Environmental Protection Fund waterfront revitalization grants. The opportunity to apply for and possibly receive grant monies is of considerable importance to the revitalization efforts of the affected communities.
