The applicant’s stated purpose for the replacement is to storm harden and protect critical infrastructure for fire suppression at their existing facility in accordance with Federal Emergency Management Administration (FEMA) and New York City (NYC) Building Code flood construction guidelines. The new SWPH (approximately 98 foot wide by 67 foot long) is to be constructed directly northwest of the existing pump house on an existing pile-supported dock and pier system. Subsequent to construction of the new SWPH\, the existing SWPH (approximately 40-foot-wide by 80-foot-long) will be demolished and removed. In addition\, the existing open-top intake structure will be covered in place with steel plates. The new SWPH will consist of an intake structure (approximately 27-foot-long by 24-foot-wide) that meets National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standards for fire protection and includes four (4) pre-cast concrete bays\, five (5) intake pumps\, and a double set of intake screens at the seaward side of the four (4) bays. The project includes installation of approximately twelve (12) 18-inch diameter steel piles to support the intake structure and installation of eighty (80) 16-inch diameter and two (2) 18-inch diameter steel piles to support the pump house building. Additional regulated work activities within NYSDEC’s jurisdiction include construction of an intake scour pad (~1\,101 square feet) and associated rip rap and maintenance of the existing dock and pier system. To facilitate installation of the intake structure an existing section of the existing timber pier decking will be removed. The project includes minor dredging and excavation of sediment to facilitate construction of the new intake structure\, scour pad\, and associated piles. The applicant proposes to purchase credits from the Saw Mill Creek Mitigation Bank as mitigation for the 382 cubic yards of unavoidable wetland impacts associated with the proposed project. \nState Environmental Quality Review (SEQR) Determination: \nProject is not subject to SEQR because it is a Type II action. \nSEQR Lead Agency: None Designated \nState Historic Preservation Act (SHPA) Determination: \nEvaluation using a Structural-Archaeological Assessment Form or other information has concluded that the proposed activity will not impact registered\, eligible or inventoried archaeological sites or historic structures. \nCoastal Management: \nThis project is located in a Coastal Management area and is subject to the Waterfront Revitalization and Coastal Resources Act. \nOpportunity for Public Comment: \nComments on this project must be submitted in writing to the Contact Person no later than Dec 07\, 2023. \nContact: \nCaitlyn P Nichols\nNYSDEC Region 2 Headquarters\n47-40 21st St\nLong Island City\, NY 11101\n(718)482-4997\ncomment.saltwaterpumphouse2022@dec.ny.gov

SUMMARY:MTA Congestion Pricing Public Comment Period (12/27/23 to 3/11/2024)
DESCRIPTION:The Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) today announced details of a public comment period of the tolling structure that has been proposed for Central Business District Tolling\, New York’s congestion pricing program. The agency will accept written and audio comments starting tomorrow and will hold four hybrid virtual/in-person public hearings in February and March. \nThe proposed tolling structure is available online. It is modeled on recommendations made by the Traffic Mobility Review Board on Nov. 30. \nFrom Wednesday\, Dec. 27\, 2023\, through Monday\, March 11\, 2024\, members of the public may submit written comments online and by email\, mail and fax\, and may submit audio comments by leaving a voicemail message. All comments will be recorded and submitted for review. \nOnline: https://contact.mta.info/s/forms/CBDTP\nEmail: cbdtp.feedback@mtabt.org\nMail: CBD Tolling Program\, 2 Broadway\, 23rd Floor\, New York\, NY 10004\nPhone: 646-252-7440\nFax: Send to (212) 504-3148 with Attention to CBDTP Team. \nThe hearings begin on Thursday\, Feb. 29\, and conclude on Monday\, March 4. Members of the public who wish to speak at the hearings are required to register in advance online\, by calling the Public Hearing Hotline at (646) 252-6777\, or in person. Registration will open one week before the start time of each hearing and will close 30 minutes after the beginning of the hearing. Speakers will be provided two minutes to speak. The hearings will be hosted in person at 2 Broadway\, New York\, NY 10004 in the William J. Ronan 20th Floor Board Room. People may also register to participate remotely via Zoom or telephone. \nThe hearings will be accessible online at mta.info/CBDTP at these dates and times: \n\nThursday\, Feb. 29\, at 6:00 p.m.\nFriday\, March 1\, at 10:00 a.m.\nMonday\, March 4\, at 10:00 a.m.\nMonday\, March 4\, at 6:00 p.m.\n\nEach public hearing will be livestreamed on the MTA YouTube channel at youtube.com/@mta-live and on the project website: mta.info/CBDTP. \nNext Steps \nThe Central Business District Tolling Program was mandated by the State of New York in April 2019 and modeled on urban congestion pricing programs around the world to reduce traffic congestion and raise needed revenue to improve public transportation. Other cities around the world that have similar programs have also experienced improved air quality. \nFollowing the public comment period\, MTA Bridges and Tunnels (known legally as the Triborough Bridge and Tunnel Authority) will review the public comments. Then its Board\, which is coterminous with the MTA Board\, will consider adopting a ratemaking regulation that includes any updates that may follow the public comment period. \nAs with any proposed toll ratemaking\, this  public comment period is being conducted in accordance with the State Administrative Procedure Act. \nAccessibility and Interpreter Services \nAt the public hearings\, American Sign Language and CART Captioning Services will be available. \nMembers of the public who are deaf or hard of hearing can use their preferred relay service or the free 711 relay service\, and then ask to be connected to the Public Hearing Hotline at (646) 252-6777 to speak with an agent. \nMembers of the public who do not have access to a computer or who do not have access to the Internet can listen to each of the hearings by calling the Zoom meeting via a telephone number which will be provided at a later date. \nIf language assistance or any other accommodations are required\, please submit a request at least five (5) business days before the scheduled hearing date in one of the following ways: e-mailing cbdtp.feedback@mtabt.org\, calling the Public Hearing Hotline at (646) 252-6777\, or by sending a letter to MTA Government & Community Relations\, Attn: Central Business District Tolling Program Hearings\, 2 Broadway\, 17th Floor\, New York\, NY 10004.
