BILL NUMBER:S5554

Title of bill

An act to amend the environmental conservation law, in relation to granting the office of parks, recreation and historic preservation the authority to operate the Camp Santanoni historic area, in the county of Essex

Purpose

To grant the office of parks, recreation and historic preservation jurisdiction over the Camp Santanoni historic area.

Summary of provisions

Section 9-0901 of the environmental conservation law is amended by adding a new subdivision 2 to allow the office of parks, recreation and historic preservation to have care, custody, control and management of Camp Santanoni.

Justification

Currently the Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation (OPRHP) manages historic sites within the Adirondack Park including John Brown Farm State Historic Site and the Crown Point State Historic Site. This legislation would transfer management of the Camp Santanoni Histor- ic Area from DEC to OPRHP, OPRHP's mission of historic preservation and interpretation will enable Camp Santanoni Historic Area's potential as a unique state and national landmark to be realized.
