PURSUANT to 15 CFR 923.84(b), the New York State Department of State (DOS) has submitted a routine program change to the federal Office of Ocean and Coastal Resource Management (OCRM). The change to the New York State Coastal Management Program (CMP) covered by this request is the incorporation of an amendment to the Village of Lewiston Local Waterfront Revitalization Program (LWRP) into the State's CMP.

A major component of the State's CMP is the provision that local governments be allowed to prepare and amend Local Waterfront Revitalization Programs, which further detail and make geographically specific the State's coastal policies. Each LWRP is reviewed for consistency with the State's CMP and approved if it meets the guidelines established in the State CMP and Article 42 of the NYS Executive Law.

The Village of Lewiston LWRP is a locally prepared comprehensive land and water use plan for the local natural, public, and developed waterfront resources. The LWRP serves as a long-term, comprehensive coastal management program for the Village's Niagara River waterfront resources, and is based on the policies of the New York State CMP. The Lewiston LWRP was originally approved by the New York State Secretary of State on February 26, 1991 and subsequently incorporated into the New York State CMP as a routine program change on April 24, 1991.

The Village prepared the amendment to the LWRP in partnership with DOS and in accordance with the New York State Waterfront Revitalization of Coastal Areas and Inland Waterways Act and the New York State CMP. The amendment refines the description of existing and proposed land uses in several areas of the Local Waterfront Revitalization Area to coincide with zoning amendments adopted by the Village to promote a better mix of uses along the waterfront and further strengthen the adjacent downtown business district. The draft LWRP amendment was circulated to potentially affected State, federal, and regional agencies during a 21-day review and comment period from December 29, 2010 to January 21, 2011.

Following this review period, the Department of State coordinated responses to comments received with the Village of Lewiston, and revised the draft where necessary. The LWRP amendment was subsequently adopted by the Village of Lewiston on March 21, 2011 and approved by the New York State Secretary of State on September 23, 2011, pursuant to the New York State Waterfront Revitalization of Coastal Areas and Inland Waterways Act (NYS Executive Law, Article 42). The approved Village of Lewiston Local Waterfront Revitalization Program is available online, at http://nyswaterfronts.com/LWRP.asp.

Any comments on whether or not the action constitutes a routine program change to the State's approved Coastal Management Program should be submitted by November 23, 2011 to: John King, U.S. Office of Ocean and Coastal Resource Management, Coastal Programs Division, SSMC4, N/ORM3, 1305 East-West Highway, Silver Spring, MD 20910.
