Purpose
This legislation will define and fix the exact boundary line between the Orange and Sullivan counties.
Summary of provisions
Sections 1 & 2. defines and fixes the exact and precise boundary line between the counties. The boundary line being a portion of the northerly line of the Orange and the southerly line of Sullivan running east from the Rio Reservoir to the Shawangunk Kill to conform such lines to the most recent survey dated May 18, 2010.

Section 4: Effective Date.
Justification
The counties of Orange and Sullivan have been involved in litigation for many years over the exact boundary line between the counties in the area between the Rio Reservoir and the Shawangunk Kill. The counties entered into a MOA in 1985 to fix the boundary line between the counties. In 1998 the counties agreed and hired a licensed land surveyor at shared cost and agreed to be bound by the accurate results. Both counties have passed resolutions requesting the Legislature to adopt the metes and bounds description as being the lawful boundary between Sullivan and Orange Counties in the location between the Rio reservoir and the Shawangunk Kill.
