The New York State Department of Health (DOH) is required by the provisions of the federal Beaches Environmental Assessment and Coastal Health (BEACH) Act to provide for public review and comment on the Department’s beach monitoring and notification plan. The BEACH Act (Section 406(b) of the Clean Water Act) enacted a federal Environmental Protection Agency grant program available to states, such as New York, with coastal recreational waters. Coastal recreational waters include the Great Lakes and marine coastal waters that are designated for swimming, bathing, surfing, or similar water contact activities. The Act is not applicable to inland waters or waters upstream of the mouth of a river or stream having an unimpaired natural connection with the open sea.

The beach monitoring and public notification plan also includes information on the beach evaluation and classification process, including a list of waters to be monitored and beach ranking. Also included in this plan, is the sampling design and monitoring plan, including sampling location and sampling frequency. Lastly, the plan contains information on procedures for public notification and risk communication, including methods to notify the public of a swimming advisory or beach closure.

Any interested parties and/or agencies desiring to review and/or comment on the beach monitoring and notification plan for coastal recreational waters may do so by writing to: Timothy M. Shay, Section Chief, Department of Health, Center for Environmental Health, Bureau of Community Environmental Health and Food Protection, Empire State Plaza, Corning Tower Bldg., Rm. 1395, Albany, NY 12237, Fax (518) 402-7600

This notice is promulgated in accordance with Title 15, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 930.

The New York State Department of State (DOS) is required by Federal regulations to provide timely public notice for the activities described below, which are subject to the consistency provisions of the Federal Coastal Zone Management Act of 1972, as amended.

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Buffalo District (Corps) has determined that the proposed activity will be undertaken in a manner consistent to the maximum extent practicable with the enforceable policies of the New York State Coastal Management Program. The applicant's consistency determination and accompanying supporting information and data are available for inspection at the New York State Department of State offices located at One Commerce Plaza, 99 Washington Avenue in Albany, New York.

The Corps has received funding through the Disaster Relief Appropriations Act (Hurricane Sandy) to conduct maintenance dredging on Lake Erie in fiscal year (FY) 2014. The funds allocated under this program are intended to allow the Corps to remove shoals that have accumulated within the Federal navigation channels and restore them to 'pre-storm conditions' to the extent practical in order to maintain sufficient depth for shallow and/or deep-draft vessels, as appropriate.

In F-2014-0037 (DA) – Barcelona Harbor at Lake Erie (Town of Westfield, Chautauqua County) – Authorized channel depths in Barcelona Harbor are 10 feet below LWD in the Entrance Channel and 8 feet below LWD in the Inner Harbor Channel. Both areas will be dredged during this operation to an estimated 6 feet below LWD in order to return the channels to pre-storm conditions. Up to an additional one foot of material may be removed to insure the minimum depth is achieved and account for inaccuracies in the dredging process. Approximately 40,000 cubic yards of material will be dredged from the Federal navigation channels during the FY14 operation tentatively scheduled to occur between June 15 and November 1, 2014. Material dredged from the Federal navigation channels are proposed to be placed in the existing, authorized open-lake placement area in Lake Erie, located three miles northwest of the Barcelona Harbor West Breakwater light, at an azimuth of 45°00′.

Additional information, including maps of the proposed dredging, placement areas and anticipated schedule can be found at: http://www.lrb.usace.army.mil/Portals/45/docs/CivilWorks/PublicReview/Barcelona-PN.pdf
