                                                   EXECUTIVE SUNEWARY



                 Pu=se. The purpose of a Local Waterfront Revitalization Program (LWRP) is to promote
                 economic development and revitalization within the local waterfront area while assuring the
                 protection and beneficial use of coastal resources therein.

                 Authority- The Waterfront Revitalization and Coastal Resources Act of 1981 (NYS Executive
                 Law, Article 42) and the implementing rules and regulations for the Act (Part 600 NYCRR)
                 authorize the preparation of Local Waterfront Revitalization Programs with financial and
                 technical assistance from the NYS Department of State. Article 42 and Part 600 also require
                 that all State agency actions proposed in a local waterfront area covered by an approved program
                 be undertaken in a manner consistent, to the maximum extent practicable, with the policies and
                 purposes of such program. In absence of an approved LVV'RP, State agency actions in the
                 coastal area must be consistent with the forty-four (44) coastal policies set forth in the New York
                 State Coastal Management Program (CMP). In essence, when an LWRP has been approved by
                 the NYS Secretary of State, its policies and purposes are substituted for those of the CMP.

                 ajos. A draft LWRP is prepared following guidelines developed by the NYS Department of
                 State. The draft assesses local waterfront conditions, identifies policies applicable to those
                 conditions, proposes future land and water uses and projects for the local waterfront area and
                 describes local means for implementing such policies, uses and projects. It also identifies State
                 and Federal agencies that would be affected by or would be needed to implement the program,
                 indicates those government agencies and other organizations consulted during preparation of the
                 program and describes measures taken to assure local commitment to program implementation.
                 A draft environmental impact statement (EIS) is prepared for the proposed local action of
                 adopting the program.

                 Next, the draft LWRP is submitted to the NYS Department of State with resolution from the
                 local governing body authorizing the submission. The Department of State, in turn, prepares
                 a program summary and distributes copies of the summary and the draft LWRP to approximately
                 70 State and Federal agencies for their review and comment during a 60-day review period.
                 Coincident with this review period, the local governing body provides for public review and
                 comment on both the draft LWRP and the draft EIS.


                 The Department of State then assists the local governing body in preparing a final EIS and a
                 final LWRP which address comments received on the draft EIS and the draft LWRP. When the
                 local governing body has adopted the final LWRP and has enacted any local regulatory measures
                 needed to implement it, the NYS Secretary of State and the U.S. Office of Oceanic and Coastal
                 Resource Management are asked to approve the LWRP. Upon approval of the LWRP, all State
                 and Federal agencies are required by law to undertake proposed actions in the local waterfront
                 area in a manner that is consistent, to the maximum extent practicable, with the policies and
                 purposes of the approved LWRP. The local government is similarly obligated by a local law
                 enacted to assure consistency.









                  Summaa of the Village/Town LWRP (draft). The nine sections of the draft Village of
                  Waddington/Town of Waddington LWRP are summarized as follows:

                  SECTION I - WATERFRONT REVITALIZATION AREA BOUNDARY. The first section
                  identifies the existing NYS Coastal Area Boundary and proposes revision of such boundary to
                  include portions of the Village between NY Route 37 and St. Lawrence Avenue and east of
                  Brookview Drive and Franklin Road. (A map of the existing and proposed boundaries is
                  attached.)

                  SECTION H - INVENTORY AND ANALYSIS. This section inventories and analyzes natural
                  resources (water, land, vegetation, fish and wildlife and scenic resources), community/cultural
                  resources (development, public access and recreation, historic and archeological resources and
                  agricultural resources), existing land and water uses and important economic activities in the
                  waterfront area. For each category inventoried, the analysis discusses problems, issues and/or
                  opportunities which have been addressed in later sections of the program.

                  SECTION III - LOCAL POLICIES AND APPLICABLE STATE POLICIES. Section III
                  lists the 44 NYS coastal policies under the headings Development Policies, Fish and Wildlife
                  Policies, Flooding and Erosion Hazard Policies, General Policy, Public Access and Recreation
                  Policies, Scenic Resources Policies, Agricultural Lands Policy, Energy and Ice Management
                  Policies, and Water and Air Resources Policies. Of the 44 State coastal policies listed, 40 are
                  explained as applicable while 4 are identified as not applicable. Accompanying the State policies
                  are 25 local policies aimed at providing greater specificity and additional coastal management
                  capability. Where appropriate, guidelines are included to assist in applying the State and local
                  policies.

                  SECTION IV - PROPOSED USES AND PROJECTS. Here, proposed future land and water
                  uses are recommended for the Village and Town waterfront area. In the Village, the proposed
                  land use pattern reflects that envisioned by the Village's existing zoning map with the exception
                  that the public lands of the Ogdensburg Bridge and Port Authority on Clark Point are proposed
                  for tourism/recreation commercial instead of industrial uses. Future water uses in the Village
                  reflect a continuation of existing water uses, with slight expansion. In the Town, the p  roposed
                  land use pattern follows the density and intensity of uses allowed by the Development Code
                  except for lands held by the New York Power Authority. For the Authority's lands, which were
                  not originally covered by the Development Code, proposed land uses are recommended based
                  upon development suitability criteria comparable to those underlying the code. New water uses
                  are proposed at Leishman Point.

                  Projects proposed in Section IV include Whittaker Park Improvements, Riverfront Park
                  Improvements and a multipurpose pavilion for the Village and Waddington Beach Improvements
                  for the Town.


                  SECTION V - TECBMQUES FOR LOCAL IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PROGRAM -
                   This section describes the local laws and regulations, other public and private actions,
                  management structures and financial resources of the Village and Town for implementing the
                  policies and purposes of the LWRP. The Village's existing zoning ordinance and sewer









                 ordinance provides partial implementation. Additional necessary amendments to the zoning
                 ordinance included revising its purpose statement to include implementation of the LWRP'S
                 policies and purposes, adding a waterfront overlay district wherein all uses except one- or two-
                 family residential would be subject to the review of site development plans; adopting a new
                 zoning map to confirm existing district boundaries; delineating the boundaries of the waterfront
                 overlay district; and requiring site plan approval consistent with the LWRP policies prior to
                 issuance of building permits, where applicable. A local consistency law was enacted to assure
                 that Village actions in the waterfront area are no less consistent with the LWRP's policies and
                 purposes than State and Federal actions must be.

                 For the Town, the Development Code and the Sanitary Code provides substantial regulatory
                 implementation of the LWRP. However, the Development Suitability Map was revised to
                 incorporate the previously excluded lands of the New York Power Authority, and the actual
                 State and local policies of the LWRP are included as site plan review criteria in an appendix to
                 the Development Code rather than being referenced to a separate document. Planning Board
                 adoption of site plan review regulations and subdivision regulations pursuant to the authority
                 granted to it by Town Board resolution and the Development Code itself provides the remaining
                 regulatory implementation. Finally, the Town has adopted a local consistency law comparable
                 to the one described above for the Village.

                 SECTION VI - FEDERAL AND STATE PROGRAMS LIKELY TO AFFECT
                 IMPLEMENTATION. This section identifies those State and Federal agencies which must act
                 consistently with the approved local program, and those whose actions will be needed for the
                 local program's implementation.

                 SECTION VII - CONSULTATION WITH OTHER AFFECTED FEDERAL, STATE,
                 REGIONAL AND LOCAL AGENCIES. Section VII simply lists the various agencies or
                 organizations consulted regarding the preparation of LWRPs in general or specifically, regarding
                 the Village/Town program.

                 SECTION V1111 - LOCAL COND41TMENT. This section briefly describes the process
                 undertaken to obtain local support for the program and commitment to its implementation.

                 Benefits of an =roved Program

                 I .    The program establishes (through its various policies) means of both protecting and
                        enhancing local coastal resources within the framework of Village and Town regulations,
                        projects and other implementation techniques.

                 2.     State and approved Federal agencies will be required by law to be consistent with the
                        local program's policies and purposes.

                 3.     Financial and/or technical assistance will be available from the NYS Department of State
                        to assist in implementation of the program.

                           SECTION I - WATERFRONT REVITALIZATION AREA BOUNDARY



                   The State's Coastal Management Program has established Statewide coastal boundaries in
                   accordance with the requirements of the Coastal Zone Management Act of 1972, as amended,
                   and its implementing rules and regulations. The landward Coastal Area Boundary delineates the
                   inland extent of the Town of Waddington and Village of Waddington waterfront areas --
                   henceforth referred to jointly as the "local waterfront area. " Since Town and Village authority
                   to implement a Local Waterfront Revitalization Program is confined to the area within their
                   respective corporate limits, it is necessary to define the waterside (riverward) extent of the local
                   waterfront area as well.



                   Landward Boundary

                   Beginning at the point of intersection of the Town of Waddington/Town of Lisbon common
                   municipal boundary and a line 1,000 feet inland of NY Route 37; thence northeasterly along
                   said 1,000 foot setback...

                          "...to the Waddington Village Line; thence north to NY Route 37; thence
                          northeasterly along NY Route 37 to Brookview Drive;               thence south on
                          Brookview Drive to Franklin Road; thence southeasterly along Franklin Road to
                          the Waddington Village Line; thence northeasterly and northwesterly along the
                          Waddington Village Line to the Norwood St. Lawrence Railroad tracks; thence
                          southeast along the railroad to a point 2,000' east of Coles Creek; thence
                          northerly along a setback approximately 2,000 feet from Coles Creek..."

                   to the Town of Waddington/Town of Louisville common municipal boundary; thence northwest
                   along the boundary to the point of intersection with the mean high water line of the St. Lawrence
                   River thence following said water line southwest along the shores of the Town of Waddington
                   and Village of Waddington to the point of intersection of the mean high water line of the St.
                   Lawrence River and the Town of Waddington/Town of Lisbon common municipal boundary;
                   thence southeasterly along said common boundary to the point of beginning.


                   Town Waterside Boundary

                          Beginning at the point of intersection of the Town of Waddington/Town of Lisbon
                   common municipal boundary and the mean high water line of the St. Lawrence River; thence
                   northwest along said municipal boundary to the International Boundary; thence northeasterly
                   along the International Boundary to the Town of Waddington/Town of Louisville common
                   municipal boundary; thence southeast to the point of intersection with the mean high water line
                   of the St. Lawrence River; thence following said water line southwest along the shores of the
                   Town of Waddington and the Village of Waddington to the point of beginning; and including


                                                                   1-3








               Ogden Island and the Murphy Islands. (The Village of Waddington municipal limits end at the
               mean high water line of the St. Lawrence River. The village, therefore, has no waterside
               boundary.)

                  An inventory and analysis of the coastal resources and conditions was prepared for the village
                  and town waterfront areas. Two basic stages were involved. First, an initial inventory was
                  undertaken to identify and assess the significance of waterfront resources in the two localities.
                  An "overview memorandum" was prepared to describe problems, issues and/or opportunities
                  associated with such resources and conditions and important government roles for management
                  of the waterfront.' Second, a more thorough inventory and analysis was conducted for those
                  resources and conditions identified in the memorandum as having the greatest significance.
                  Some additional information was gathered and analyzed for other resources and conditions
                  described in the memorandum as having less significance, but associated with certain coastal
                  policies identified as "most applicable".

                  The results of the two-stage process are presented below under four main headings: NATURAL
                  RESOURCES, COMMUNITY CULTURAL RESOURCES, EXISTING LAND AND WATER
                  USES AND IMPORTANT ECONOMIC ACTIVITIES. Topics or subtopics under these main
                  headings were structured to correspond as much as possible with the broad policy grouping of
                  the NYS Coastal Management Program. This provides for easy reference between this section
                  and SECTION III - LOCAL POLICIES AND APPLICABLE STATE POLICIES.



                                                    NATURAL RESOURCES


                  The complex system of natural resources which characterizes the Waddington waterfront area
                  includes abundant water resources, substantial areas of prime agricultural soils, extensive
                  wetlands and forested areas, numerous fish and wildlife habitats and excellent scenic resources.
                  Although such natural resources are somewhat common to the St. Lawrence River Valley in this
                  part of St. Lawrence County, their particular occurrence and characteristics in the Town and
                  Village of Waddington contribute to a unique coastal setting and local waterfront identity.


                  A. WATER RESOURCES

                  Inventory. (See Plate 3)

                  The principal surface waters of the local waterfront area are Lake St.Lawrence, Whitehouse
                  Bay, Sucker Brook, Brandy Brook and Coles Creek. Plate 3 shows the location, depth
                  characteristics and New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) Water



                        The overview memorandum identified development, fish and wildlife, scenic vistas, and
                  agricultural lands as those waterfront resources of greatest significance for this program.
                  Flooding and erosion, general interest (social, economic and environmental      public access and
                  recreation, energy and ice management, and water and air resources were also considered
                  important, though of somewhat lesser significance.


                                                                 11-3








                  Quality Classifications of these water resources for the Town and Village. This plate also
                  provides general information concerning groundwater recharge.

                  1.     Lake St. lAwrence. Created by construction of the Moses-Saunders Dam in Massena,
                         Lake St. Lawrence defines approximately 29 miles of shoreline: 20.8 miles mainland
                         and 8.2 islands (Ogden Island and the Murphy Islands). Creation of the lake or "power
                         pool" formed Whitehouse Bay, a long and shallow embayment in the westerly part of the
                         Town's waterfront, and the almost insular Leishman Point. Extensive areas of shallower
                         littoral waters are found in Whitehouse Bay, around Leishman Point, along portions of
                         Ogden Island, around the Murphy Islands and along much of the shoreline downstream
                         (northeast) from Clark Point.

                         All of the waters of Lake St. Lawrence within the local waterfront area - including
                         Whitehouse Bay and the mouths of Sucker Brook and Brandy Brook -have a DEC water
                                                    2
                         use classification of "A".


                  2.     Sucker Brook, which drains the western and southwestern portions of the Town in two
                         branches, (Sucker Brook and Little Sucker Brook) empties into Lake St. Lawrence in the
                         eastern part of the Village along the west side of Clark Point. The confluence of the
                         stream's two branches is located immediately inland from the mouth of Sucker Brook and
                         the NY Route 37 bridge. Sucker Brook and Little Sucker Brook have DEC water use
                         classifications of "C" and "D" ', respectively.

                  3.     Brandy Brook. This stream drains the south-central part of the Town and flows into
                         Lake St. Lawrence east of the Village, north of NY Rt. 37. Its mouth is characterized
                         by a narrow and fairly deep channel cutting through very broad shallows. Inland from
                         the mouth (south of the NY Route 37 bridge) Brandy Brook has a water use classification
                         of "D".


                  4.     Coles Creek. Although its mouth lies beyond the Town's easterly limits parts of Coles
                         Creek are located within the Town's waterfront area. A small area in the northeastern
                         part of the Town drains to a shallow finger of Coles Creek west of the creek's main



                        Class A waters are suitable as a source of water supply for drinking, culinary or food
                  processing purposes and any other usages with treatment.


                      3 Class C waters are suitable for fishing and all other uses except as a source of water
                  supply for drinking, culinary or food processing purposes, and primary contact recreation. Class
                  D waters are suitable for secondary contact recreation, but due to such natural conditions as
                  intermittence of flow, water conditions not conducive to propagation of game fish, or streambed
                  conditions, the waters will not propagate fish.


                                                                 H-4









                          course. An upstream section of Coles Creek also cuts through the southeastern comer
                          of the Town. The surface area of Coles Creek is extensive (especially east of the Town)
                          but its drainage area is considerably less than those of Sucker Brook, Little Sucker Brook
                          and Brandy Brook. Upstream from its mouth (south of the NY Route 37 bridge) Coles
                          Creek has a DEC water use classification of "C".


                  5.      Other surface waters. The remaining surface waters of the local waterfront area consist
                          of many intermittent streams that either flow directly into the St. Lawrence River or into
                          its major bays and tributaries. Shoreline and upland flooding and erosion conditions
                          attributable to the surface waters of the Town and Village are discussed under C. Land
                          Resources. A discussion of aquatic vegetation and wetlands associated with the surface
                          waters is provided under D. Vegetation. Fish and wildlife habitats created by these
                          water resources are addressed under E. Fish and Wildlife Resources. Finally, the scenic
                          value of certain surface waters are discussed under F. Scenic Resources.


                  6.      Groundwater. Both the Town and Village rely solely on groundwater for water supply.
                          Only limited information is available concerning this resource. Nevertheless, certain
                          generalizations about groundwater can be made.          First, the majority of wells in
                          Waddington have been drilled deeply, drawing water from joints or bedding surfaces in
                          the underlying dolomitic bedrock or from the deeper sandstone. Shallower wells have
                          tapped groundwater from uncon solidated deposits of glacial till or thin beds of large
                          grained sand overlying or underlying the till. The deeper wells have usually provided
                          the better flows of groundwater, but neither the bedrock nor the overlying unconsoli
                          dated materials are considered good aquifers. Also, the deeper the wells are drilled, the
                          more dissolved salts are found in the groundwater. (See C. Land Resources for
                          discussion of surficial and bedrock geology.)

                          Second, the groundwater is recharged from surface waters either percolating downward
                          from the land surface or inland and upward through the bedrock due to the hydrostatic
                          pressure of Lake St. Lawrence. Figure I illustrates the likely pattern of groundwater
                          recharge from Lake St. Lawrence since the type of bedrock and general southwest to
                          northeast pitch of bedrock layers under Waddington are similar to those in the Massena
                          area.


                  Analysis: (See Plate 4) The following problems, issues and opportunities have been determined
                  in analyzing the water resources of the local waterfront area:

                  1.      Control of wastewater discharges. All uses in the developed areas of the Village are
                          served by the Village's sanitary sewer system. (See COMMUNITY/CULTURAL
                          RESOURCES, A.5. Infrastructure). The wastewater collected in the system originates
                          from mostly residential uses and a small collection of commercial establishments. It is
                          treated at the Village's sewage treatment plant east of Pine Street before being discharged
                          to Lake St. Lawrence at the mouth of Sucker Brook. In the absence of local industry,
                          no industrial pretreatment is required. Municipal discharges from the Town consist of


                                                                  11-5










                                       those originating at the offices and public works facilities on Platele Street which the
                                       Town shares with the Village. These discharges, of course, are handled by the Village's
                                       sewer system and treatment plant. Outside of the Village all wastewater treatment is via
                                       individual systems, almost entirely for residential uses. The Village's wastewater
                                       treatment capability represents an opportunity to handle further concentration of
                                       development without jeopardizing water quality downstream from the sewer outfall.

                 2.       "Best usage" of surface waters. All of the existing water use classifications are deemed
                          appropriate in terms of "best usage". Although the Village draws its water from wells
                          rather than directly from Lake St. Lawrence, it is likely that at least some (if not all) of
                          the well water originates from the lake. The waters of Lake St. Lawrence are used for
                          contact recreation (swimming) at the Town's park on Leishman Point. Thus, the Lake's
                          "A" water use classification should be maintained. The "C" classifications of Sucker
                          Brook and Coles Creek should also be maintained for fish propagation in those streams.
                          Brandy Brook and Little Sucker Brook may experience some fish propagation, but due
                          to low flows their "ID" water use classifi6ations would be difficult to upgrade. In this
                          respect, such classifications are probably appropriate.

                 3.       Reliance on individual wastewater disposal systems. (Town) There are no public
                          sanitary sewers in the Town's waterfront, and none are likely to be proposed in the
                          foreseeable future. New development will, as in the past, rely solely on individual
                          wastewater disposal systems. Given the poor suitability of Waddington soils for septic
                          leach fields (see NATURAL RESOURCE, C.3. Soils) the potential for poorly
                          functioning septic systems is quite high. Control over the installation of new septic
                          systems will be essential for protection of groundwater supplies, especially in areas with
                          rapid groundwater recharge. The use of innovative wastewater treatment systems may
                          be necessary in areas where conventional septic systems would be likely to fail or
                          function improperly.

                  4.      Reliance on groundwater. All of the waterfront area in the village and Town is
                          dependent on groundwater supplies. Although no measurable groundwater shortage or
                          contamination has occurred to date, the potential certainly exists. Should development
                          occur in heavily concentrated pockets rather than in a generally dispersed rural pattern,
                          the risks of localized shortage or contamination will increase considerably. Also, uses
                          which would draw very large quantities of groundwater for processing, discharge large
                          amounts of effluent or handle toxic substances could jeopardize either the quantity or
                          quality of the groundwater available. The area of rapid groundwater recharge would be
                          particularly susceptible.

                  5.      Other problems, issues or opportunities. No problems involving vessel wastes have
                          been identified. However, in the event that the sale of substantial shoreline areas from
                          the New York Power Authority (NYPA) holdings spurs public or private marina
                          development, pumpout facilities would become essential to handle discharges from
                          marine holding tanks.











                                                                  11-7









                          Dredging and dredge spoil disposal issues or problems do not presently exist. On the
                          other hand, land disposition, as described in the preceding paragraph, could induce            0
                          proposals to dredge in either shallow bay areas or around the mouths of streams flowing
                          into Lake St. -Lawrence.


                          As in most St. Lawrence River communities, the potential for oil spills from tankers
                          moving along the St. Lawrence Seaway is a local concern. A major spill in the river
                          upstream from Lake St. Lawrence could cause significant damage to fish and wildlife
                          habitats in Waddington's waterfront area.          (See E.      FISH AND WILDLIFE
                          RESOURCES) Swimming at the Town beach on Leishman Point would also be in
                          jeopardy.

                          Solid wastes and, in particular, hazardous materials are not known to pose a threat to
                          water quality in the local waterfront area at present. There are presently no solid waste
                          landfills within the Town or Village. Refuse from both communities is collected by
                          private contractor and hauled to Ogdensburg, a private disposal site.



                   B.     AIR RESO CES

                   Since neither the Town nor Village of Waddington lies within an Air Quality Maintenance Area,
                   no air pollution problems, issues or opportunities have been determined.


                   C.     LAND RESOURCES


                   Inventory.

                   1.     Bedrock geology. (Not mapped) The oldest underlying bedrock is pre-cambrian granitic
                          rock of the Greenville Formation (igneous and metarnor-phosed rock) perhaps over a
                          billion years old and characteristic of the Frontenac Axis that underlies the Thousand
                          Islands region.     Overlying this formation is the Potsdam Sandstone Formation.
                          Deposited in an inland sea over 500 million years ago, this formation contains the oldest
                          Cambrian sedimentary rock in the area, outcrops of the Potsdam sandstone. Calcareous
                          and dolomitic sandstone of the Theresa Formation cover the Potsdam Sandstone, and may
                          be seen in local outcrops. This formation was deposited during the late Cambrian and
                          early Ordovician Periods, 475 to 550 million years ago. Finally, the Ogdensburg
                          Dolomite Formation was deposited 450 to 500 million years ago during the Ordovician
                          Period. This type of bedrock is the dominant type of outcrop in the area.

                   2.     Surficial Geology. (See Plate 5) The local waterfront areas of the village and Town lie
                          within the Oriented Till Ridge subsection of the St. Lawrence Low-lands surficial
                          geological province. After a series of glacial advances and retreats over the vicinity, the
                          last period of glaciation. (Wisconsin) gouged and shaped the present landform, leaving


                                                                  11-8









                          a mantle of debris deposited as the glacial masses melted away. The deposition of this
                          debris or "till" occurred in long ridges (parallel to the St. Lawrence River) which overlay
                          sand and clay.

                          Ridge tops were winnowed and reduced by wave action during the period of post-glacial
                          inundation that followed. Coarse fragments and some marine shells remained on the
                          ridge tops while finer-textured materials were carried away by wind or washed out and
                          deposited in the calm waters of the St. Lawrence-Champlain Gulf where freshwater and
                          salt water met. Subsequent isostatic rebound of the underlying bedrock after the massive
                          weight of ice was removed has uplifted the till and marine sediments. This has produced
                          the present land mass and its widespread distribution of shallow, silty sands and silty
                          clays overlying bedrock interspersed with eroded till ridges. These surficial deposits
                          were the principal parent materials for the soil layers found in the waterfront area today.

                  3.      Soils. (See Plate 6) In general, the soils of the waterfront area are relatively deep
                          sandy or clayey loam soils exhibiting some drainage and moderate permeability.

                          West of the Village the soils are primarily fine sandy loams, silt loams and silty clay
                          loams, with drainage and permeability generally decreasing with increasing silt and clay
                          content. An area of generally well drained, rapidly permeable sandy soils is located to
                          the south of Leishman Point. Cut and fill is found in several large pockets along Lake
                          St. Lawrence.


                          In the Village, fine sandy loams and silt loams prevail to the west of Sucker Brook while
                          sands and loamy fine sands are most common to the east of this stream. Pockets of cut
                          and fill can be found along the western side of the stream's mouth and along NY Route
                          37 easterly from the mouth. A small area of flooded soils lies along NY Route 37 near
                          the Village's eastern boundary.

                          Sands, loamy fine sands and mucky loamy fine sands characterize most of the waterfront
                          lying east of the village. Smaller pockets or bands of loam soils are interspersed with
                          the sandy soils, especially near streams and drainage ways. Two pockets of cut and fill
                          and several small areas of flooded soils lie along NY Route 37.

                          Prime farmland soils ' are found over large areas in the western part of the waterfront,
                          on Ogden Island, near the mouth of Brandy Brook (south of NY Route 37) and along
                          Coles Creek in the southernmost part of the eastern Town waterfront.

                  4.      Topography. (See Plates la and lb) Level to gently rolling terrain characterizes most
                          of the local waterfront area. The areas lying east of the Village are particularly low-
                          lying and flat. Within and west of the Village, surface elevations rise gently from just
                          under 250 ft. m. s. 1. ' at the shoreline to slightly over 300 ft. m. s. 1. along NY Route
                          37. Leishman Point and Ogden Island have more pronounced relief due to the extensive
                          bottom material placed at these sites during the dredging of the Seaway. Low lying
                          bluffs characterize the shoreline in the western part of the waterfront whereas low sandy
                          plains are common along the shoreline in the eastern part.

                  Analysis: (See Plate 7) Associated with the land resources of the Town and Village waterfront
                  areas are the following problems, issues and opportunities:

                  1.      Limitations imposed by bedrock and surficial geology. The only limitation of
                          consequence is that much of the rural water supply is drawn from deeper wells drilled
                          into the Ogdensburg Dolomite formation. While this formation does provide an adequate
                          supply of potable water, it is generally hot considered to be a good aquifer as would
                          deeply bedded sands and gravels. It is, nevertheless, a better source than the extensive
                          surficial deposits of glacial till and the layers of silty sand and clay lying above the
                          bedrock.


                  2.      Limitations imposed by soils. According to the soil characteristics determined by the
                          USDA Soil Conservation Service, all soils in the local waterfront area are poorly suited
                          to the use of conventional septic systems. Typical of clayey post-glaciation soils in St.
                          Lawrence County, many soils in the Waddington area are subject to wetness, ponding,
                          and slow percolation rates. These conditions generally impose severe limitations on
                          septic tank absorption fields. The use of raised bed, mound or other alternative systems
                          will often be necessary. Other Waddington soil types exhibit excessive percolation rates
                          where sandy or gravelly soil and glacial till predominate. These soils are poorly suited
                          to conventional septic systems because waste water can move too quickly downward
                          through the soil material and into the groundwater supply. Alternative systems will often
                          be needed for individual wastewater treatment in these soil types as well.

                          In addition to limiting the use of septic system absorption fields, the soils with wetness,
                          ponding and seasonally high water table conditions present other limitations to both
                          development and agricultural use. Both activities face greater initial costs due to the
                          extensive drainage improvements needed to pipe or channel away excess water on the
                          surface or in the upper soil layers. Heaving foundations and wet or flooded basements
                          can impose considerable costs on property owners with inadequate or clogged foundation
                          drainage systems. In areas of denser development, drainage improvements become
                          harder to accomplish without affecting the drainage of adjacent developed properties.

                 3.      Issues related to prime farmland soils. Most of the Town of Waddington lies within
                         a large agricultural district formed in 1975. The waterfront areas included within the
                         district are situated along the south side of NY Route 37 between Buck Road and the
                         Town's western limits, along the north side of NY Route 37 near Whitehouse Bay and
                         along both sides of Coles Creek in the southeasterly comer of the Town.

                         These areas were encompassed by the district by reason of landowner support, extensive
                         prime farmland soils and considerable active farming. Although active farming is
                         declining it will still be strongly associated with prime farmland soils 1.

                         Small population increases in the Town and Village between 1970 and 1980 were
                         associated with disproportionately larger increases in the number of housing units.'
                         The trends of ex-urban population movement, formation of more single-person or small
                         family households and second home construction during that period presented a slow, but
                         inexorable pressure for land subdivision and non-agricultural development. While the
                         continuation of this trend is certain, and the anticipated sale and development of NYPA
                         lands will increase the pressure for non-agricultural development. Local planning and
                         regula. tory efforts should strive to limit the loss of prime farmland soils to non-
                         agricultural development, especially where active farming has been or is currently a
                         viable economic activity.

                 4.      Flood Hazard. There is virtually no private land in the Village or Town of Waddington
                         waterfront areas subject to flood hazard since the shoreline, stream banks and other low-
                         lying areas subject to flooding are held by the New York Power Authority (NYPA).
                         Controlled flooding of the shoreward edges of these lands is an intrinsic feature of Lake
                         St. Lawrence, where water levels are maintained for production of hydroelectric power
                         at the Moses-Saunders Dam. If the Town or Village or any of their private landowners
                         subsequently acquire any of these lands, then flood hazard potential may be an issue.
                         The current land disposition proposal by NYPA would retain 100 ft. from the 250
                         counter mean sea level (m. s. 1.), and probably all flood hazard areas.

                 5.      Shoreline Erosion.       A 1979 study " by the St. Lawrence-Eastem Ontario
                         Commission examined actual and potential erosion along the St. Lawrence River
                         shoreline. In the Waddington local waterfront area, several stretches of the shoreline

                                                               II-11









                           with low erodible bluffs were identified as having very high shoreline erosion potential.
                           These stretches included: around the peninsula north and west of Whitehouse Bay;
                           portions of the peninsula along Lake St. Lawrence and in Whitehouse Bay; the
                           outermost portions of Leishman Point, minor portions of the shoreline between Leishman
                           Point and the Village, the developed portion of Coles Creek State Park; and Ogden
                           Island on the upriver portion of the southshore and the central portion of the north shore.

                   6.      Upland Erosion. No soils in the Town or Village waterfront areas have been identified
                           by the USDA Soil Conservation Service (SCS) as being subject to severe erosion hazard.
                           Two small upland areas have soil types rated by SCS as having moderate erosion hazard:
                           one along the southern side of Whitehouse Bay west of Hanlon Road and another in the
                           eastern forest/ wetlands area about one-quarter of a mile south of the Coles Creek State
                           Park campgrounds. The moderate erosion hazard of these soils is not considered to
                           impose any serious development constraints or siltation problems. NYPA ownership of
                           the first area will preclude almost all development possibilities whereas the second lies
                           in a remote and largely inaccessible area with limited development potential.



                   D. VEGETATION


                   Invento . (SeePlate8)

                   1.      Forest. A single area of forest vegetation straddles the Village's eastern-most waterfront
                           area boundary. This area is part of a larger one that covers most of the land between
                           Little Sucker Brook in the Village, and Brandy Brook within the Town's waterfront.

                           In addition to the area noted above, there are two other areas of extensive forest
                           vegetation in the Town's waterfront area. The largest one covers most of the waterfront
                           area east of Brandy Brook, and encompasses Coles Creek State Park. Extensive wetlands
                           coincide with this area of forest vegetation. The other one covers a large portion of the
                           waterfront area lying between Whitehouse Bay and the Village's western limits. Ogden
                           Island has four areas of reforestation evenly spaced from its western to eastern tips. The
                           largest of these areas is situated near the island's center. Additional, small pockets of
                           forest vegetation are found scattered around Whitehouse Bay. All areas of forest
                           vegetation and reforestation are dominated by deciduous trees with occasional stands of
                           conifers.

                   2.      Forest Brushland. In the Village's current waterfront area, forest brush-lands are found
                           primarily along NY Route 37 east of James Street and east of the Norwood and St.
                           Lawrence Railroad line. Additional areas with this type of vegetation lie outside the
                           waterfront boundary between Beach Street and the Village's western limits, and generally
                           east of Little Sucker Brook.





                                                                  11-12









                           Within the Town's waterfront area, the forest brushlands are found mainly to the west
                           of the Village. The largest areas with this type of vegetation lie between NY Route 37
                           and the Iroquois Dam, to the north of Whitehouse Bay, on Leishman Point and its nearby
                           mainland shoreline, and on Ogden Island surrounding the reforestation areas. Smaller
                           areas are located near the western limit of the Village, along the west side of Brandy
                           Brook and in Coles Creek State Park.


                    3.     Wetlands. While there is only one small area of wetland on Clark Point in the Village's
                           current waterfront area, two additional areas (also small) lie just outside the waterfront
                           boundary. One is located near Beach Street and St. Lawrence Avenue; the other lies
                           east of Little Sucker Brook in the southern part of the forested area.

                           The Town's waterfront area contains extensive wetlands. Roughly one quarter of all the
                           land lying east of Brandy Brook and north of Coles Creek falls in this category. There,
                           the wetlands coincide with the most extensive forest vegetation found in the Town's
                           waterfront. Additional wetlands are found on the west side of the mouth of Brandy
                           Brook, along the railroad near the Village's eastern limits and in scattered pockets
                           between Whitehouse Bay and the Village's western limits. Several of these pockets are
                           actually parts of two larger wetlands near Buck Road that were fragmented by the
                           construction of NY Route 37.


                    4.     Aquatic Vegetation. Aquatic vegetation is primarily found within the littoral zones of
                           the St. Lawrence River, in shoreline bays and in the mouths of tributaries. The littoral
                           zones (generally areas of less than 18' depth) in the St. Lawrence River tend to be very
                           narrow bands along the shoreline of the mainland and the river islands. Aquatic
                           vegetation occurs in the Village waterfront area at the mouth of Sucker Brook. In the
                           Town, Whitehouse Bay and Brandy Brook contain aquatic vegetation, with considerable
                           amounts occurring in Whitehouse Bay.


                    Analysis. (See Plate 9). The vegetation resources of the Village and Town waterfront areas
                    are not particularly unique and have limited direct economic value for harvest, research or other
                    productive use. Yet, their influence on the traditional rural character of the area and their
                    beneficial roles in providing habitat, recreation areas, soil stabilization, flood retention, water
                    purification and scenic beauty make these vegetation resources important coastal assets.

                    1.     Significant forest areas. The three large areas of forest vegetation, provide wooded
                           upland habitats, open space or outdoor recreation opportunities, and, along NY Route 37,
                           a wooded backdrop for a scenic corridor.

                           The largest of the three covers most of the waterfront area east of Brandy Brook and
                           north of Coles Creek. Its low-lying terrain, high water table and extensive wetlands have
                           precluded both agricultural uses and development activities.           Its inaccessibility is
                           reflected in the typically large parcel sizes and the general absence of clearings,


                                                                   IEI-13









                           structures and roadways. NY Route 37 passes along and through the northernmost
                           stretches of this area and, as a result, offers coastal views enhanced by intermittent forest
                           vegetation as well as wetlands and glimpses of open water. The wooded areas of Coles
                           Creek State Park campgrounds to the north of NY Route 37 are also part of this large
                           area of forest vegetation. Hunting in this part of the Town attests to the area's value as
                           wooded habitat for small and large game. However, documentation is not available to
                           identify the variety of wildlife species or the overall habitat significance of the area.

                           Good opportunities for outdoor recreation exist here. Timber harvesting is possible but
                           difficult and limited mostly to firewood, rather than lumber.

                           The second area of forest vegetation lies between Little Sucker Brook in the Village and
                           Brandy Brook in the Town. It is segmented by NY Route 37, the St. Lawrence and
                           Norwood Railroad line and provides the additional wooded backdrop for coastal views.
                           Again, the opportunities for use as wooded recreation area and limited timber harvesting
                           are present. The value of the area as wooded upland habitat is undetermined.

                           Finally, the third area is transitional from forest brushlands, to forest approaching the
                           Village from the west along NY Route 37. From just west of Buck Road to a short
                           distance outside of the Village limits, the heavier forest vegetation provides additional
                           scenic corridor. With more home sites bounding the area, its habitat value is likely to
                           be less than the other two forested areas. Outside of its pockets of wetland, the area may
                           offer potential for large wooded lots, passive recreation and limited timber harvesting.

                   2.      Significant forest brushland areas. While most areas of forest brushlands in the Town
                           and Village waterfront are not particularly significant, two areas are noteworthy. The
                           first, a pocket of forest brushland along the west side of Brandy Brook in the Town,
                           offers upland areas of shrubs; grasses; and saplings suited to a variety of bird species.
                           It is contiguous to a potentially significant coastal habitat (see Fish and Wildlife
                           Resources Analysis . The second area provides similar habitat along the east side of
                           Little Sucker Brook in the Village. Its importance is considered to be less than the first
                           area since Little Sucker Brook is more exposed to development and human activities east
                           of Franklin Road and is considered to have only local significance as a habitat.

                   3.      Designated Wetlands. . Pursuant to the Freshwater Wetlands Act," the NYS
                           Department of Environmental Conservation filed the Final Freshwater Wetlands Plate for
                           St. Lawrence County on October 21, 1987. Ten of the wetlands designated thereon lie
                           within the Town's waterfront, with one extending across the Village boundary for a short
                           distance. The significance of the Town's designated wetlands is indicated below by their
                           classifications and sizes.





                           Environmental Conservation Law, Article 24.

                                                                   U-14









                          a.     WT-1. This wetland lies mostly along the northern side of the Norwood and St.
                                 Lawrence Railroad line in the eastern part of the Town's waterfront. Although
                                 one-quarter to one-third of its 416 acres lies outside the Coastal Area Boundary,
                                 it is still the largest Class 11 wedand in the waterfront area.

                          b.     MI-2. The next largest Class II wetland stretches in numerous segments from
                                 northwest of WT- 1 to the most downriver extent of the Town's shoreline. Along
                                 NY Route 37 the intermittent presence of this 280-acre wetland adds variety and
                                 interest to the wooded corridor views.


                          C.     MI-3. With 41 acres, this wetland is the third largest Class II wetland. It is
                                 located on the south side of NY Route 37 near the Town's easterly limits.

                          d.     W- 11. is a Class II wetland associated with the body of water east of Clark Point
                                 and extends across the Town/Village boundary.

                          e.     MI-1. The smallest designated Class 11 wetland contains 20 acres to the west of
                                 the mouth of Brandy Brook.

                          f.     CM-1. The largest Class III wetland in the waterfront covers 180 acres located
                                 generally east of WT-1 and south of MI-3.

                          9.     WT-2. This Class III wetland straddles NY Route 37 near Buck Road in the
                                 Town's western waterfront. More than one-half of its 126 acres falls outside of
                                 the waterfront area.


                          h.     CM-2. This smaller Class III wetland contains 17 acres to the south of CM-1.


                          i.     WT-3. The second smallest Class III wetland also straddles NY Route 37
                                 between Buck Road and the Village. It contains 15 acres.

                          j.     SP-1. The smallest designated Class III wetland lies east of White house Bay.
                                 It contains 15 acres.


                  4.      Significant areas of aquatic vegetation. Most of the littoral waters and stream estuaries
                          of the Town and Village waterfront have potential value as fish habitat. However, the
                          shallow waters of Whitehouse Bay, Brandy Brook and Coles Creek are considered
                          particularly significant for the fish and wildlife habitat they provide. The aquatic
                          vegetation in these areas is thus of relatively greater value.

                          No problems have been identified regarding current threats to the significant vegetation
                          resources of the waterfront. The proposed sale and potential development of surplus
                          lands now held by the New York Power Authority raise new issues about the value of
                          such resources and impacts they will face in the future. The values of vegetation


                                                                11-15








                          resources for fish and wildlife habitat, recreation and scenic enjoyment are discussed
                          more fully under other parts of this section.


                  E.      FISH AND WELDLEFE


                  InventoKy. (See Plate 10)

                  Fish and wildlife species and their principal habitats are identified from past SLEOC field studies
                  and reports, consultations with the DEC (see Appendix A), and the Oil Spill Respgnse Model
                  Il - St. Lawrence River (SLEOC 1984). A detailed chart listing the fish and wildlife species by
                  occurrence, habitat and habitat area is provided as Appendix B.

                  1.      Mmmals. Of the forty-five species inventoried, about two dozen can be found in the
                          Waddington waterfront area. The most common of these are the short-tailed shrew,
                          snowshoe hare, eastern cottontail, eastern chipmunk, gray squirrel, meadow vole,
                          woodchuck, porcupine, raccoon, striped skunk, and whitetailed deer. The largest
                          number and variety of these are found east of the Village, around Brandy Brook, Coles
                          Creek, and along the shores of the St. Lawrence River. West of the Village the most
                          suitable habitat area for mammals is the Iroquois Dam area. However, the lack of any
                          great expanses of forests or wetlands in the westernmost portions of the waterfront area
                          limits the variety of species there to common, small mammals such as eastern chipmunk,
                          gray squirrel, meadow vole, norway rat, and eastern cottontail. Ogden Island and the
                          Murphy Islands are not inhabited by any substantial number of mammals, nor are any
                          portions of the Village waterfront area.

                  2.      Birds. There are 209 species of birds and waterfowl that either pass through during
                          spring and fall migration, spend the summer, spend the winter, or breed within the
                          Waddington waterfront area. The greatest number consists of species of migrants while
                          the least are those that winter in the area. Of those species of birds and waterfowl that
                          breed within the waterfront area, the most common are the great glue heron, green-
                          backed heron, canadian goose, mallard, gadwall, american widgeon, red-tailed hawk,
                          IdUdeer, spotted sandpiper, ring-billed gull, herring gull, common tem, rock dove,
                          chimney swift, northern flicker, eastern wood-peewee, eastern kingbird, purple martin,
                          tree swallow, bank swallow, cliff swallow, barn swallow, blue jay, American crow,
                          black-capped chick-a-dee, house wren, march wren, veery, wood thrush, american robin,
                          gray catbird, cedar waxwing, european starling, red-eyed vireo, yellow warbler,
                          arnerican red start, common yellowthroat, rose-breasted grosbeak, chipping sparrow,
                          savannah sparrow, song sparrow, swamp sparrow, bobolink, red-winged blackbird,
                          common grackle, northern oriole, house finch, anierican gold finch, and house sparrow.
                          The greatest number and variety of species occur around Brandy Brook, Coles Creek and
                          the St. Lawrence River shoreline east of the Village. The remaining Town habitat areas
                          of Whitehouse Bay, Ogden Island and the Murphy Islands are less inhabited, yet, still
                          noteworthy. Also of note is the habitat area at Sucker Brook within the Village.


                                                                 U-16








                          northern leopard frog, snapping turtle, painted turtle, northern water snake, and eastern
                          garter snake are most common, with rare occurrences of the blandings turtle in the Coles
                          Creek area. Within the Village, the Sucker Brook area supports large numbers and
                          varieties of species while the St. Lawrence River shoreline supports smaller numbers.
                          The greatest number and variety of species within the Town occurs in the Coles Creek
                          area with smaller numbers occurring around Brandy Brook, the Iroquois Dam area, and
                          along most of the St. Lawrence River shoreline.

                   4.     Fish. Thirty-nine different species of fish are reported to occur within the local
                          waterfront area. The most common occurrences are of american eel, alewife, northern
                          pike, muskelunge, carp, golden shiner, split tail shiner, sand shiner, blunt nose minnow,
                          fullfish, white sucker, shorthead redhorse, brown bullhead, banded killfish, white perch,
                          rock bass, pumpkinseed, bluegill, small-mouth bass, large-mouth bass, black crappie,
                          yellow perch, walleye and freshwater drum. Within the Village waterfront area, sucker
                          brook supports a small number and variety of species. The greatest number and variety
                          of species are found within the Town, in Brandy Brook and Coles Creek, with smaller
                          numbers occurring in Whitehouse Bay and the shallow waters around the Iroquois Dam
                          area and Ogden Island.

                   Eleven general habitat areas were identified in the inventory. Little information was available
                   concerning fish and wildlife species in area #11 (Eastern Forest/Wetlands) or area #3 (Western
                   Forest). Appendices A and B provide varying amounts of documentation for the other areas.


                   Analysis. (See Plate 11) From the inventory of fish and wildlife resources, discussions with
                   the Waterfront Advisory Committee and consultation with Region 6 of the Department of
                   Environmental Conservation (DEC), the significance of habitats in the local waterfront areas has
                   been analyzed. The Coles Creek and Brandy Brook areas and Navigation Light 91 have rated
                   high enough under criteria of 19 NYCRR Part 602 for proposed designation as "significant
                   coastal fish and wildlife habitats". Whitehouse Bay, the western forest area, Ogden Island,
                   Sucker Brook, the Murphy Islands, Coles Creek State Park and the eastern forest/wetlands area
                   are considered, to varying degrees, habitats with local significance.

                   Each habitat is discussed below in terms of its significance and any problems, issues or
                   opportunities associated with it:


                   1.     Areas recommended as significant coastal fish and wildlife habitats:


                          a.     Navigation Light 91 La-rea 6). Near the U.S. - Canadian boundary, a





                                                                 11-17








                                  short distance downriver from the easterly tip of Ogden Island, Navigation Light
                                  91 provides a man-made nesting site for Common tern (threatened). This light,
                                  along with others up and downriver, are estimated to support about half of the
                                  Common tern population of the St. Lawrence River.

                                  Colonial bird species nesting on man-made structures in the St. Lawrence River
                                  are highly vulnerable to disturbance from mid-April through July.

                                  Significant human activity (e.g., boat-landing, fishing, or maintenance) on or
                                  around occupied sites could eliminate tern colonies from the St. Lawrence
                                  Navigation Lights, and should be minimized during this period. Annual or
                                  permanent posting of these structures should be provided to help protect the
                                  nesting bird species. Habitat management activities, such as manipulation of
                                  surface substrates, control of avian predation or competition, and establishment
                                  of additional nesting colonies in the vicinity, may be desirable or necessary in the
                                  future to ensure the survival of common tern populations along the St. Lawrence
                                  River. Other navigation structures in the river should be monitored or enhanced
                                  for use by common tems, as part of an overall management program for these
                                  bird populations.

                          b.      Brandy Brook (area 2). The wide, shallow waters of the mouth (and lower
                                  reaches) of Brandy Brook, their patches of marsh and their adjacent uplands
                                  provide fish and wildlife habitat with value comparable to that of Coles Creek.
                                  In addition to the variety and number of mammals, birds and fish associated with
                                  this habitat area, Brandy Brook is significant as one of the few St. Lawrence
                                  tributaries known to support major walleye spawning runs -- possibly the only one
                                  in U.S. waters. Brandy Brook has been proposed for designation as a Significant
                                  Coastal Fish and Wildlife habitat. Upon designation, the Town's LWRP
                                  Boundary will be expanded (as depicted on Plate 3) to include those areas
                                  presently excluded.

                                  Any activity that would substantially degrade water quality, increase turbidity or
                                  sedimentation, reduce water levels, alter flows, or increase water level
                                  fluctuations in Brandy Brook could adversely affect a variety of fish and wildlife
                                  species. Discharges of sewage or stormwater runoff containing sediments or
                                  chemical pollutants (including fertilizers, herbicides, or insecticides) may result
                                  in adverse impacts on fish and wildlife resources in the area. Spins of oil or
                                  other hazardous substances are a potentially serious threat to fish and wildlife in
                                  Brandy Brook, and every effort should be made to prevent such contamination.
                                  Elimination of wetland habitats, or significant human disturbance of the area,
                                  through dredging, filling, construction of roads, waste disposal, or motorboat
                                  access, could reduce its value to fish. and wildlife. Channel modification in free-
                                  flowing segments above the impoundment would result in a direct loss of valuable
                                  habitat area. However, habitat management activities, including water level


                                                                  111-18









                                  management, may be designed to maintain or enhance populations of certain fish
                                  and wildlife species. Any significant disturbances of Brandy Brook would be
                                  especially detrimental during fish spawning and nursery periods (March - July for
                                  most warmwater species) and wildlife. breeding seasons (April - July for most
                                  species). Barriers to fish migration in the creek, whether physical or chemical,
                                  could have significant effects on fish populations within the creek. Existing areas
                                  of natural vegetation bordering Brandy Brook should be maintained for their value
                                  as cover for wildlife, perch sites, and buffer zones. Efforts should be made to
                                  reduce upstream disturbance by agricultural activities, especially grazing, through
                                  fencing and restoration of riparian vegetation. Development of additional public
                                  access may be desirable to increase compatible human uses of Brandy Brook, but
                                  must be designed to minimize disturbance of sensitive fish and wildlife species
                                  that occur in the area.


                                  As in the case of Coles Creek, disposal of NYPA lands near Brandy Brook will
                                  merit restrictive conditions as part of the sales transactions or municipal
                                  regulation or both to protect significant habitat. Outdoor recreation activities,
                                  e.g. fishing, hunting, trapping, hiking and bird watching, are the principal
                                  opportunities provided by this area.

                          C.      Coles Creek (Area 12). The lower reaches of Coles Creek are broad and shallow
                                  - especially near the mouth. With relatively warm and slow-moving waters,
                                  marsh fringes, low-lying adjacent uplands and, during periods of lower water
                                  levels, extensive mud flats, this area supports a variety of fish and wildlife
                                  species. DEC views the Coles Creek area as a productive wildlife area and
                                  probable habitat for the blandings turtle (threatened). Wetland areas near Coles
                                  Creek may be used by bald eagles (endangered) and northern harriers
                                  (threatened).

                                  Any activity that would substantially degrade water quality, increase turbidity or
                                  sedimentation, reduce water levels, alter flows, or increase water level
                                  fluctuations in Coles Creek could adversely affect a variety of fish and wildlife
                                  species. Discharges of sewage or stormwater runoff containing sediments or
                                  chemical pollutants (including fertilizers, herbicides, or insecticides) may result
                                  in adverse impacts on fish and wildlife resources in the area. Spills of oil or
                                  other hazardous substances are a potentially serious threat to fish and wildlife in
                                  Coles Creek, and every effort should be made to prevent such contamination.
                                  Elimination of wetland habitats, or significant human disturbance of the area,
                                  through dredging, filling, construction of roads, waste disposal, or motorboat
                                  access development, could reduce its value to fish and wildlife. However, habitat
                                  management activities, including water level management, may be designed to
                                  maintain or enhance populations of certain fish and wildlife species. Any
                                  significant disturbances of Coles Creek would be especially detrimental during
                                  fish spawning and nursery periods (March - July for most species) and wildlife


                                                                  11-19









                                  breeding seasons (April - July for most species). Barriers to fish migration
                                  between the St. Lawrence River and Coles Creek, whether physical or chemical,
                                  could have significant effects on fish populations within the area as well as in
                                  Lake St. Lawrence. Existing areas of natural vegetation bordering Coles Creek
                                  should be maintained for their value as cover for wildlife, perch sites, and buffer
                                  zones.   Efforts should be made to minimize potential upstream habitat
                                  disturbances, including agricultural activities and residential development.
                                  Development of additional public access may be desirable to increase compatible
                                  human uses of Coles Creek, but must be designed to minimize disturbance of
                                  sensitive fish and wildlife species that occur in the area.

                                  Although the area is not well-suited to development, the proposed sale of surplus
                                  NYPA lands immediately west of Coles Creek could induce some development
                                  activity there and, thus, potential threats. The sale of surplus NYPA lands in this
                                  area may pose critical issues if conditions are not imposed (through deed
                                  restrictions, conservation easements and/or land use controls) to protect habitat
                                  values.


                                  Fishing, hunting, trapping, nature trail hiking and bird-watching are inherent
                                  recreational opportunities within this habitat area.

                  2.      Areas considered habitats with local significance:

                          a.      Whitehouse Da (area 2). This large, shallow bay contains 238 acres of open
                                  marsh and supports diverse fish species. Although northern harriers and common
                                  terns are present there during the summer, the possibility of muskellunge
                                  spawning in the bay has drawn greater attention to its habitat value.             If
                                  muskellunge spawning and nursery area is documented there in the future, it
                                  could qualify for designation as a Significant Coastal Fish and Wildlife habitat.

                                  No problems currently confront this habitat area. However, the proposed sale of
                                  surplus NYPA lands and the ultimate density and intensity of development
                                  induced thereby, could introduce septic system effluent, road salt and other
                                  contaminants carried by surface runoff into the bay. Public or private docks,
                                  marina development and other water-dependent uses would also pose threats.
                                  This area is a high priority sensitivity area regarding oil spills.

                          b.      Western Forest (area 3). Little specific documentation is available regarding the
                                  significance of this wooded upland habitat area. Small and large mammals are
                                  likely, but with less diversity and abundance compared to the eastern
                                  forest/wetlands area. The area's transition to forest brushland from east to west
                                  and its pockets of freshwater wetlands may support various species of shorebirds,
                                  songbirds, hawks, reptiles and amphibians.            With less isolation from
                                  development, the area is not expected to be a highly significant habitat and, given


                                                                 111-20









                                    the private ownership of lands in this area, conservation measures are unlikely.
                                    Private outdoor recreation use is likely on a limited scale.

                           C.       Ogden Island (area 4). This area has moderate value as a fish and wildlife habitat
                                    for small mammals and various bird and fish species. The proximity of its
                                    easterly end to Navigation Light 91 may have significance. Ogden Island's
                                    shallow and open waters have local significance for Northern Pike and
                                    Muskellunge.

                                    No specific threats to this habitat area have been identified.             Its foremost
                                    opportunities are for fishing.

                            d.      Sucker Brook (area 7). Shallow waters, shoals and marsh fringes characterize the
                                    mouth of Sucker Brook and, with the exception of shoals, the lower reaches of
                                    both Sucker Brook and Little Sucker Brook. Together, with the adjacent upland
                                    forest brushlands, these shallow waters provide a possible significant habitat area
                                    for breeding, feeding and nesting bird species both during the Summer and during
                                    migration. It also supports common amphibian species and numerous species of
                                    fish.


                                    Although it is not likely to be designated as a Significant Coastal Fish and
                                    Wildlife habitat, it is another high priority area with respect to oil spill sensitivity.
                                    The "C" Water Use Classification of Sucker Brook acknowledges its suitability
                                    for propagation of fish species. Control of wastewater effluent in the southeast
                                    part of the Village will also be important to the protection of this habitat area.
                                    Future development possibilities related to the sale of surplus NYPA lands along
                                    the Norwood and St. Lawrence Railroad could be a source of impacts. However,
                                    the "D" Water Use Classification of Little Sucker Brook lessens somewhat the
                                    water quality concerns there. Fishing and bird watching are the principal
                                    opportunities provided by this habitat area.

                            e.      Mu1p4 Islands (area 81. These two grass and shrub covered islands are low-
                                    lying. They were rated by DEC and specifically determined to have less value
                                    as a fish and wildlife habitat than needed to meet the criteria of 19 NYCRR Art.
                                    602. Prevailing water levels in Lake St. Lawrence determine their extent of
                                    exposed habitat. The principal values of the two islands derive from their use for
                                    breeding, nesting, loafing and feeding by various bird species. Some nesting of
                                    common tern (threatened) has occurred there.

                                    The Murphy Islands have been identified as having high priority sensitivity for
                                    oil spill protection.     No other threats are noted, and no opportunities for
                                    recreational use are believed worthy of mention other than bird watching.




                                                                      H-21









                                   Coles Creek State Park (area 10). The State parklands share some of the fish and
                                   wildlife habitat and species characteristics of the Coles Creek area, with the
                                   exception of threatened or endangered species. Given the human activity within
                                   the campgrounds, the habitat is more disturbed and less significant. Nevertheless,
                                   the abundance of species in this area lends it local significance as a habitat.

                                   No specific threats to this habitat area are known. General preserva, tion of the
                                   park's forest and forest brushland areas is believed to be important to habitat
                                   protection. The recreational opportunities offered by this habitat area - especially
                                   in association with camping activities are considerable. They include fishing,
                                   hunting, trapping, nature trail activities, and birdwatching.

                           9.      Eastern forest/wetlands (area 11). As in the case of the western forest (area 3),
                                   little information is available concerning the abundance or variety of wildlife
                                   species in this extensive and largely inaccessible area. Small and large mammals,
                                   numerous bird species (including Possibly eagles and hawks) and some reptile and
                                   amphibian species may be present.

                                   The areas remoteness, high watertable, and wetland provide inherent protection
                                   against development impacts. Hunting, trapping and nature hikes are notable
                                   opportunities offered.


                   F.      SCENIC RESOURCES. (See Plate 12)

                   Inventory. As elsewhere along the St. Lawrence River, the scenic resources of the local
                   waterfront area derive mainly from open water as seen from various locations, for example:

                   1.      Shoreline Vistas


                           a.      Leishman Poin .     Its elevated crown offers the most notable vista in the
                                   waterfront area, a panoramic view that encompasses Ogden Island, the Canadian
                                   mainland, and the shoreline stretching east and west.

                           b.      Whitehouse Da
                                                 ,y. Informal public access on the New York Power Authority lands
                                   permits many different views of the bay from along its shoreline. Outward views
                                   toward its mouth are more scenic.


                           C.      Clark Point. Clark Point provides a variety of views. Looking upstream in a
                                   southwesterly direction, the view takes in the broad, shallow mouth of Sucker
                                   Brook, Whittaker Park, the Village's developed coastline and the narrowed waters
                                   of Lake St. Lawrence between Ogden Island and the mainland (known as Little
                                   River). An outward (northeasterly) view encompasses the narrowest part of
                                   Ogden Island, its downriver extremity and the distant Canadian mainland.


                                                                  U-22









                                  Finally, in a downstream (easterly) direction, the view stretches over a broader
                                  section of Lake St. Lawrence, distant Murphy Islands and the heavily vegetated
                                  shoreline.


                          d.      ILoq,uois Dam. Again, informal public access permits views of the dam and
                                  expanses of water upstream. Although not particularly scenic in terms of natural
                                  beauty, the vista provides opportunity to view the engineering works built nearly
                                  thirty years ago as part of the power project.

                          e.      Coles Creek State Campgrounds. Views of the widest section of Lake St.
                                  Lawrence are provided from various upstream and downstream points of the
                                  campgrounds. Closer views of the Murphy Islands and different perspectives of
                                  the eastern waterfront's irregular and low-lying wooded shoreline are possible.

                          f.      Whittaker Park. While less panoramic than the Leishman Point and Clark Point
                                  vistas, views from the Village's shoreline park enhance the park's passive
                                  recreation activities. Ogden Island dominates views along all but the easternmost
                                  portions of the park. The views from here provide a pleasant back drop for park
                                  activities.


                          9.      Ogden Island. The southern shoreline of Ogden Island affords various views of
                                  the mainland, from the mouth of Whitehouse Bay to the State park campgrounds.
                                  However, the views of Leishman Point, the developed Village waterfront, and the
                                  mouth of Sucker Brook are more varied and interesting. The island's narrow,
                                  eastern tip offers the longest perspective of Lake St. Lawrence in a downstream
                                  direction as well as panoramic views of both the U.S. and Canadian mainlands.

                          h.      Other shoreline views. Depending on the extent of physical obstacles to access,
                                  every remaining stretch of shoreline presents a view of the river --- again, by
                                  means of informal access on NYPA property. The views, however, have fewer
                                  or more poorly defined frames of reference.

                   2.     Highway Views.

                          a.      St. Lawrence Avenue. The motorist can best view the open waters of Lake St.
                                  Lawrence traveling along St. Lawrence Avenue. Long sections of undeveloped
                                  shoreline alternate with several sections where structures partially block the view.
                                  Ogden Island, again, is the dominant backdrop feature for these open water
                                  views.


                          b.      NY Route 37. Only limited views of Lake St. Lawrence are presented to the
                                  motorist driving along NY Route 37. Views at the western entrance to the Town
                                  and along Whitehouse Bay are obstructed by structures or vegetation in the
                                  foreground. Brief glimpses are possible passing through the developed part of the


                                                                  11-23









                                 Village. The mouths of Sucker Brook and Brandy Brook allow views of short
                                 duration where these streams are bridged. Nevertheless, NY Route 37 has many
                                 aspects of a scenic corridor.       Traveling from west to east, the motorist
                                 experiences considerable diversity in length of view, types of foreground and
                                 background, sense of openness or enclosure, and dominance of natural vegetation
                                 versus agriculture or development. The occasional views of water, whether lake
                                 or stream, maintains the impressions of a coastal area.

                   3.     Image features of the Village. Foremost among those features which give coastal
                          character to the Village are the linear orientation of St. Lawrence Avenue and
                          development along it paralleling the open water, the series of perpendicular streets which
                          lead gently down to St. Lawrence Avenue, the prevalence of historic structures hugging
                          LaGrasse Street (Main Street) and St. Lawrence Avenue, and the distinct focus provided
                          by the mouth of Sucker Brook. The marinas, resorts and other water-dependent or
                          water-enhanced uses which strongly influence the character of villages in the thousand
                          islands area are absent here. NYPA ownership of virtually all of the shoreline has
                          precluded such development. Not withstanding the Village's shoreline park, some public
                          docks and a boat launch, little actual use of the water resources is evident.

                   4.     Image features of the Town. The Town's coastal image is significantly more pastoral
                          than that of the Village. The Iroquois Dam, a cluster of small cottages and trailers along
                          the southeasterly side of Whitehouse Bay, the Coles Creek State Park campgrounds and
                          marina, the Town Beach at Leishman Point, and a boat launch at Brandy Brook do not
                          measurably alter the basic agricultural and wooded rural character of the Town's
                          waterfront.



                   Analysis. - The shoreline vistas from Leishman Point, Whittaker Park, the northern tip of Ogden
                   Island, Coles Creek State Park campgrounds and near the Iroquois Dam have local significance.
                   Each of these vistas gives a perspective of the waterfront and an immediate sense of place in
                   relation to Lake St. Lawrence. Views along St. Lawrence Avenue and the section of NY Route
                   37 east of the Village, also have local significance. They offer the motorist a broader scope for
                   viewing the coastal settings and the interrelations between the communities and their coastal
                   visual resources.


                   Considered individually, these vistas and highway views are not likely to have statewide
                   significance. Many other sites along the St. Lawrence River offer more striking scenic views
                   of islands, bays, marshes and rugged shoreline. However, the virtually undeveloped condition
                   of the shoreline and the extent to which such shoreline is held by a single public entity, make
                   these scenic resources unusual as a whole. NYPA ownership along the shores of Lake St.
                   Lawrence has precluded the nearly continuous development of shoreline cottages and commercial
                   structures that have foreclosed or severely restricted visual access to the river elsewhere. These
                   locally significant resources can thus be attributed potential statewide significance by reason of
                   their unique circumstances.


                                                                  11-24









                   In general, the collective scenic resources face a number of closely interrelated problems, issues
                   and opportunities attendant upon the release of surplus shorelands from public control. The very
                   uniqueness that such extensive public ownership has given to locally significant scenic resources
                   could be lost. If the sale of surplus NYPA lands permitted the typical pattern of dense shoreline
                   development, the potential statewide significance would be eliminated. The protection of scenic
                   quality along the shoreline and the guarantee of appropriate visual access must be inseparable
                   from the sale and subsequent development of surplus lands.

                   Specific problems, issues and/or opportunities for individual scenic resources are as follows:

                   1.      Leishman Point. The elevated views and panoramic shoreline vistas here enhance the
                           existing public access and recreation activities associated with the Town Beach.
                           However, such scenic resources also make the point one of the Town's most desirable
                           areas for private development. Retention of public visual access will be an important
                           consideration for this area. Also, the density, character, and future development along
                           the southern side of Ogden Island will have a strong influence on the quality of views
                           from Leishman Point.


                   2.      Whittaker Park. No portion of the Village's shoreline park is expected to be involved
                           in the sale of surplus lands. The only scenic quality concerns stem from potential
                           development of Ogden Island. As in the case of Leishman Point, future development on
                           the island could either enhance or detract from the park's vistas, depending on the nature
                           of such development.

                   3.      Northeastern tip of Ogden Island. Access to Ogden Island is limited to watercraft or
                           ice crossings. Any proposal to retain vistas at the northern tip for public enjoyment must
                           consider this limitation. A day use picnic facility for boaters could provide the needed
                           rationale for retaining public ownership and capitalize on the isolated location.

                   4.      Coles Creek State Park campgrounds. The scenic quality of the campgrounds draws
                           from views of the water, especially the southwesterly and northeasterly vistas. In view
                           of the current public use and jurisdiction of the Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic
                           Preservation, no problems or issues are believed to exist regarding their visual resources.

                   5.      Near the Iroquois Dam. Although less scenic than the four locations discussed above,
                           the area near the dam presents an important opportunity for tourists to view the St.
                           Lawrence and a major flood control structure close at hand. Retention of public
                           ownership near the shore would be an essential part of preserving this vista.

                   6.      St. Lawrence Avenue. Views of Ogden Island with Lake St. Lawrence in the
                           foreground are significant for the motorist traveling along St.Lawrence Avenue. None
                           of the NYPA-owned shoreline is expected to be offered for sale here. As in the case of
                           Whittaker Park, the aesthetic character of future development on Ogden Island would be
                           the foremost concern. Also, the immediate foreground of NYPA land could be enhanced


                                                                  U-25









                           by a series of plantings -- low shrubs and well-spaced trees -- to break up stretches of
                           rather barren shoreline and to give framing to outward views.

                  7.       NY Route 37 Scenic Corridor. With its wooded enclosure and intermittent views of
                           open water (along the Little Sucker Brook causeway and at the mouth of Brandy Brook),
                           the section of NY Route 37 east of the Norwood and St. Lawrence railroad offers the
                           motorist an enjoyable visual experience. The essentially undisturbed, natural condition
                           and the views along this highway corridor represent valuable assets for tourism in general
                           and an important setting for visitors en route to boat launch, camping and marina
                           facilities in this area. Uncontrolled placement of signs, substantial cutting of the forest
                           vegetation and lack of attention to aesthetics during any future development along this
                           section of highway could seriously reduce its scenic value.

                   8.      ViHage Image. Specific problems and issues affecting the character and vitality of the
                           Village are discussed under various parts of the subsection on COMMUNITY
                           RESOURCES. Revitalization of the commercial core of the Village, preservation of
                           historic setting, control of strip development along Lincoln Avenue, and the fostering of
                           more uses linked with and benefitting from the abundant water resources will be essential
                           to protect and improve the Village's coastal image. Enhancement of views from St.
                           Lawrence Avenue and careful attention to signage will also be important for image
                           enhancement and protection.

                   9.      Town Image. West of the Village, the rural coastal character could be significantly
                           diminished by dense frontage development, strip commercial land uses, substantial clear
                           cutting of wooded areas, blockage of the few existing views of water or replacement or
                           cessation of agricultural activities. With the likelihood of major development activity in
                           the Iroquois Dam and Whitehouse Bay areas, each of these potential impacts on image
                           could occur. The challenge to the Town will be the need to promote and guide
                           development in ways that capitalize on image features without eliminating or degrading
                           them.


                           East of the Village, the protection of image will rest solely upon maintaining the scenic
                           corridor and the promotion of coastal public access and recreation.














                                                                  11-26










                                            COMMUNITY/CULTURAL RESOURCES

                   An inventory of community facilities and other cultural features of the local waterfront area was
                   conducted using air photos, tax maps, the NYS Coastal Atlas and a windshield survey, as well
                   as previous studies of the area conducted by the St. Lawrence-Eastern Ontario Commission. An
                   analysis of the inventory results was made with input from local officials and the Waterfront
                   Advisory Committee. The inventory and analysis is presented below under the headings
                   Development, Public Access and Recreation, Historic and Archaeological Resources, and
                   Agricultural Resources.



                   A.      DEVELOPMTNT


                   Inventory (See Plates 13, 14, 15 and 16)

                   1.      Public and Semi-Public Facilities. For convenience, public facilities were identified
                           under two categories: those related to governmental or quasi-govern mental functions
                           (administration, infrastructure, education, public health or safety and other public
                           services) and those related to public access and recreation.          Semi-public facilities
                           (religious, charitable, institutional, community service and other not-for-profit, non-
                           governmental functions) were inventoried under another category.

                           Governmental facilities within the Village's waterfront area consist of a lift station to the
                           north of St. Lawrence Avenue at Main Street (LaGrasse St.), a sewage treatment plant
                           to the east of Pine Street and a former industrial site owned by the Ogdensburg Bridge
                           and Port Authority on Clark Point to the east of the mouth of Sucker Brook. Additional
                           governmental facilities located within the Village but outside the current waterfront area
                           include the Village/Town Municipal Building, the Town highway garage and the firehall.
                           on Platele Street to the south of Lincoln Avenue (Rt. 37); a public elementary school
                           on the west side of Main Street to the south of Lincoln Avenue; The Post Office on the
                           east side of Main Street; The Town Library building and the old Town hall on the west
                           side of Main Street just north of Lincoln Avenue; and the Waddington Rescue Squad
                           building along the south side of Lincoln Avenue between Green Road and Beach Street.
                           Within the Town's waterfront area, the sole governmental facility consists of the Iroquois
                           Dam in the western part of the Town.

                           Public access and recreation facilities within the Village's waterfront area consist of the
                           Village park east of Pine Street and a pedestrian walkway, municipal docks and a boat
                           mooring area along the north side of St.Lawrence Avenue. Town parkland (open space)
                           at the four comers of the Main Street and Lincoln Avenue also falls in this category but
                           is located outside the current waterfront area. The Waddington Town Beach on
                           Leishman Point in the western part of the Town and Coles Creek State Park
                           campgrounds, boat launch ramp and marina in the eastern part of the Town are the
                           public access and recreation facilities located in the Town's waterfront.


                                                                   11-27









                           Semi-public facilities in the Village include the Waddington Health Building, on St.
                           Lawrence Avenue near Pine Street, the American Legion on Fenton Street, a Masonic
                           Temple at Main Street and St. Lawrence Avenue, three churches located on Lincoln
                           Avenue and another located on Fenton Street. Of these, only the Waddinton Health
                           Building lies within the Village's waterfront area. No facilities of this category lie within
                           the Town's waterfront area.


                   2.      Commercial Facilities.       Located within the Village's current waterfront are the
                           following: a pollution clean up firm, a truss construction company, and a lumberyard.
                           Outside of its waterfront area, the Village has a number of commercial facilities, most
                           of which are concentrated on Main Street, south of St. Lawrence Avenue. These
                           facilities consist of. a hardware and building supplies store, an auto parts store, a beauty
                           shop, a tavern, a used furniture store, a hotel with adjoining laundromat, a liquor store,
                           a bank, a grocery store, an insurance office, a sportswear specialty shop and a
                           restaurant/tavern. The remaining Village commercial facilities include: a gas station/used
                           cars sales facility, a barber shop/sporting goods store, a restaurant, a supermarket, a
                           bowling hall, a funeral home, and a golf course east of Franklin Street between Big
                           Sucker Brook and Little Sucker Brook.


                           In the Town's waterfront area, all of the commercial facilities are found along Route 37.
                           Moving from west to east in the western part of the Town, one finds a machine shop,
                           a farm implement dealership, a delicatessen, a small nursery/greenhouse operation, and
                           a gas station/car sales facility. Continuing east from the Village's eastern line, the
                           Town's commercial facilities consist of a 12-unit motel and a fuel oil dealership.

                   3.      Industrial Facilities. While lacking actual industry, a 22-acre site on Clark Point has
                           been included in this category to recognize past efforts of the Ogdensburg Bridge and
                           Port Authority (the owner) to market the property as an industrial/-shipping site.
                           Formerly owned and improved by the St. Regis Paper Company, the site is basically
                           vacant land served by rail, highway, Village sewerage and water supply, and electric
                           power. Potential exists for shipping from the site given the refurbishing of dock facilities
                           and dredging.

                    4.     Housing Stock.       The limited housing stock located within the Village's current
                           waterfront area consists predominantly of older (pre-1940), single family year-round
                           houses. Outside the current waterfront area, older year-round single-family houses also
                           predominate. While the few two-family structures to be found are scattered, multiple-
                           family units tending to be concentrated on the Main Street commercial core, in two small
                           apartment buildings and as second or third floor apartments over several of the
                           commercial facilities.



                           In the Town's waterfront area, the housing stock consists almost entirely of single-family
                           structures built along state, county or Town road frontage. Such structures are a mix of


                                                                   U-28









                          older farm houses and newer rural residences. The single-family housing stock is
                          occupied year-round with the exception of a few seasonal units near Whitehouse Bay (site
                          built) near Leishman Point (mobile homes). A 4-unit apartment building, located along
                          Route 37 to the east of the Village, comprises the only multiple-family housing in the
                          Town's waterfront.


                          Information on the overall distribution of residential land uses is provided later in this
                          section under Existing Land and Water Uses.

                   5.     Infrastructure. The Waddington waterfront area is served by a highway, road and street
                          system as shown on all plates. Within the Village waterfront area, existing development
                          is served by a municipal water system supplied by two deep wells located along St.
                          Lawrence Avenue. The Village is also served by a sewer system and, a sewage
                          treatment plant near Pine Street. The Town relies on individual wells for its water supply
                          and individual septic systems for sewage disposal. The Iroquois Dam and the abandoned
                          Norwood St. Lawrence Railroad are the only noteworthy infrastructure in the Town's
                          waterfront area, besides the road and highway system.


                   Analysis. (See Plates 16 and 17). Extensive NYPA ownership of the Village and Town
                   shorelands has had a pervasive influence on development in the local waterfront area. Most
                   problems, issues and opportunities directly or indirectly stem from excess public holdings along
                   Lake St. Lawrence and the resulting exclusion of private sector initiatives in coastal
                   development. The following discussion highlights this central concern.

                   1.     Deteriorated and/or Underutilized Areas. Using a setback of 100 ft. from the 250 ft.
                          contour line m.s.l. as its minimum criterion for control of the "power pool," NYPAhas
                          identified substantial acreage of surplus holdings. All such holdings are deemed
                          underutilized as indicated on Plate 16. The remainder of the NYPA lands must be
                          considered used for flood control purposes.

                          Since the surplus lands are a series of individual parcels or groups of non-contiguous
                          parcels, they are more readily described as geographic areas of the waterfront - some
                          with identifiable subareas. Seven areas of surplus NYPA land are discussed below: six
                          in the Town and one in the Village. A number of the problems, issues and opportunities
                          relating to these areas were underscored in a recent study entitled Directions for Change.
                          12




                          Directions for Change, "Land Use Analysis and Recommendations For Surplus
                   Properties of the New York Power Authority", prepared by the St. Lawrence County Planning
                   Board, February, 1987.


                                                                 H-29









                          In addition, the holdings of the Ogdensburg Bridge and Port Authority on Clark Point
                          and the Norwood and St. Lawrence Railroad right-of-way (owned by the OBPA) are
                          identified as underutilized areas. Finally, the section of Main Street between Maiden
                          Lane and St. Lawrence Avenue is included as an area with deterioration as well as
                          underutilization.


                          (Area I - ILoguois Dam to Whitehouse Bayl. This is the largest area of surplus NYPA
                          land. Other than an access road to the dam and limited farming (hay crops) on portions
                          leased from NYPA, the four surplus parcels which comprise this area have remained
                          unused since the power project was completed. Given its somewhat greater elevations,
                          better potential land access and lesser value for wildlife habitat compared to NYPA lands
                          in many other areas of the waterfront, this area offers the best opportunities for large
                          scale development in the Town. The lack of sewers, the portions with soil limitations,
                          the potential for impacts on possible muskellunge spawning in Whitehouse Bay, and the
                          need to preserve the locally significant vista near the dam are issues which must be
                          addressed as part of any development scheme there.

                          (Area 2 - Whitehouse Bay to Leishman Point). Three separated parcels make up this
                          area. Poor soil suitability and poor access pose problems for development of the two
                          parcels closest to Whitehouse Bay. Potential impacts on the locally significant fish and
                          wildlife habitat of the bay and lack of sewers are the principal issues there. Good views
                          of the bay may be attractive for large lot, low density development. The third parcel
                          offers a somewhat better development opportunity, bearing in mind its moderate soil
                          suitability. Again, absence of sewers is a major issue.

                          (Area 3 - Leishman Poino. This parcel was not included among lands that NYPA
                          indicated as surplus even though much of Leishman Point satisfies the 100 ft. setback
                          criterion. It was apparent that NYPA expected the Town of Waddington to favor
                          continued leasing arrangements for the entire point. However, the majority of Town
                          officials view the parcel as prime land for private development as well as public access
                          and recreation. The issue, then, is the extent to which private development might be
                          considered without detracting from existing public use or foreclosing future public access
                          and recreation needs. Visual access is a closely related issue since the elevations on
                          Leishman Point provide for a significant vista toward Ogden Island. Lack of sewers and
                          soil limitations are again problems that warrant consideration.

                          (Area 4 - Ogden Island). Ogden Island represents another major area of development
                          potential. The island lacks significant coastal fish and wildlife habitat area and has
                          pockets of soils suited to dwellings without basements. Isolation, inaccessibility and lack
                          of sewers suggest lower density cottage development and island resort use as
                          development opportunities. The character of future development on Ogden Island will
                          have considerable bearing on shoreline vistas at many points along the mainland. Public
                          day use at the easternmost end of the island could compliment private development on
                          the larger areas to the west, while retaining access to a significant vista.


                                                                 U-30








                           (Area 5 - Mouth of Brandy Brook). Four small parcels of surplus land are located along
                           the northern side of NY Route 37 near the mouth of Brandy Brook: two to the west of
                           the mouth and two to the east. All of these parcels are low-lying with loamy soils
                           overlying surficial deposits of silty sand. These soils are poorly suited to septic systems
                           and impose severe limitations for dwellings. The parcels to the west of the mouth are
                           heavily wooded and partly surrounded by wetland. To the east of the mouth, the parcels
                           are also wooded. Given the Brandy Brook area's status as a fish and wildlife habitat, the
                           foremost development constraint is that of habitat protection. Preservation of the scenic
                           corridor along this part of Ny Route 37 is also a concern. The absence of sewers is a
                           decided constraint on development opportunities. Any development concepts for these
                           parcels must successfully incorporate measures to resolve the many drawbacks noted.

                           (Area 6 - West of Coles Creek). Four separate parcels west of Coles Creek and south
                           of NY Route 37 comprise this area of surplus lands. Although they collectively involve
                           the third largest amount of acreage, their potentially usable acreage is rather limited.
                           Like those near the mouth of Brandy Brook, the parcels in this area are low-lying with
                           mostly loamy soils over-lying silty sand or dune sand. High water table, wetlands and
                           forest vegetation characterize most of the surrounding area. Soils throughout this area
                           of surplus land are subject to severe limitations on the use of septic systems and, barring
                           a few isolated pockets within the parcels, on dwellings.

                           The northernmost parcel is believed to have limited potential for residential development.
                           Future campground use - either as part of the State park or privately operated - is
                           considered the best development opportunity. Commercial use (associated with camping)
                           may also be possible. Preservation of visual quality will also be an issue along this
                           section of the NY Route 37 scenic corridor.


                           Soil limitations, inaccessibility, and proximity to the Coles Creek fish and wildlife habitat
                           suggest very low intensity use of the remaining three parcels. Nature trails, scattered
                           hunting camps, and remote camping areas may be appropriate.

                           (Area 7 - East of Sucker Brook). This area involves three surplus parcels: one in the
                           Village, one in the Town and one straddling the Village's eastern municipal boundary.
                           Very low relief, sandy soils overlying surficial deposits of silty sand, forest vegetation
                           and inaccessibility characterize each of these parcels.          Area soils impose severe
                           limitations on the use of septic systems and on dwellings. Again, nature trails and
                           scattered hunting camp uses may be most appropriate unless the Norwood and St.
                           Lawrence Railroad right-of-way provides future access (see Area 9). Since the Sucker
                           Brook area is not a significant coastal fish and wildlife habitat, the likelihood of
                           development impacts on valuable fish and wildlife resources is reduced.

                           (Area 8 - Clark Point). With 22 acres served by Village sewer and water, electricity,
                           railroad, and highway access, the former industrial site is the most developable but one
                           of the most underutilized properties in the local waterfront area. After repeated but


                                                                   H-31









                           unsuccessful efforts to attract industrial development and shipping interests to this
                           potential port property, the Ogdensburg Bridge and Port Authority (OPBA) decided to
                           sell the land. One-way hauling diseconornies on the railroad line, the need for dredging,
                           costly requirements for developing port facilities, trucking distance from the Ogdensburg
                           Bridge and would be competition with the Port of Ogdensburg itself were undoubtedly
                           considerations. Although future industrial uses should not be absolutely ruled out, the
                           site could support multiple family residential use, condominiums, resort/hotel
                           development, marina use or combinations thereof. Many uses could capitalize on the
                           point's extensive, undeveloped shoreline and views of Lake St. Lawrence.

                           (Area 9 - Norwood and St. Lawrence Railroad right-of-way). OBPA ownership of this
                           railroad was intended to support port development on Clark Point. Once the decision
                           was made to abandon port development efforts there, the railroad became an unnecessary
                           holding and probably a liability. Sale of the railroad line offers a possible recreation trail
                           through the most. isolated section of the Town.            Enormous cost and numerous
                           development limitations in this part of the Town would rule out use for highway
                           purposes.

                           (Area 10 - Commercial Core). Deteriorating commercial buildings and vacant stores
                           limit the economic strength of this area. Although some capital reinvestment is evident,
                           the area as a whole suffers from underutilization. Conversion of commercial structures
                           to apartments could continue the weakening of the Village's small business district. Sale
                           of NYPA and OBPA holdings could be expected to attract second home and some resort
                           development which, in turn, would swell the seasonal population and increase demand
                           for commercial services in the core area. However, like many St. Lawrence River resort
                           communities, a strong summer tourism economy alone may not induce sufficient capital
                           reinvestment to eliminate the deterioration. Growth in year-round demand is needed to
                           minimize underutilization. Also, the development of competing commercial facilities
                           along NY Route 37 in the Town would further weaken the core.

                           A coordinated effort between the Town and Village is needed such that growth in the
                           Town strengthens commercial activity in the Village's commercial core -- with both
                           communities benefiting. Facade and structural improvements, landscaping, street
                           furniture, ornate street lighting, poles and fixtures, sidewalk improvements and
                           promotion activities would enhance the core area and increase its attractiveness for
                           tourists. Public/private cooperation would be essential to revitalize this area.

                   2.      Water-dependent and Water-enhanced Uses. NYPA lands held for flood control
                           purposes, i.e. those meeting the 100 ft. setback criterion noted earlier, are water-
                           dependent in a manner of speaking. However, since they are used for power generation
                           and navigation purposes having little bearing on waterfront revitalization in the Town or
                           Village, these lands are merely noted and not mapped.




                                                                   111-32









                           Active water-dependent uses are very limited in the local waterfront area and essentially
                           restricted to the public sector. In the Village, they are essentially restricted to the public
                           sector. In the Village, they consist of the sewage treatment plant, the boat launch and
                           docks near the sewage treatment plant, and the municipal docks north of St. Lawrence
                           Avenue near the lift station. Swimming at the Town Beach on Leishman Point, the State
                           boat launch at the mouth of Brandy Brook and the marina at Coles Creek are the Town's
                           only water-dependent uses.

                           Water-enhanced uses are likewise restricted. In the Village, Whittaker Park, a pedestrian
                           walkway, and one commercial activity, the golf course, fall in this category. A single
                           water-enhanced use is found in the Town: the Coles Creek State Park campgrounds.

                           Sale of surplus NYPA lands and the OBPA holdings on Clark Point will present
                           significant opportunities to promote and develop both water-dependent and water-
                           enhanced uses. Local interest in fostering more tourism will depend on the degree of
                           success in promoting and facilitating such uses.

                   3.      Concentration of Development. The primary areas for concentrating new coastal
                           development lie within the Village to the north of Lincoln Avenue and to the west of
                           Little Sucker Brook. Adequate existing infrastructure and the availability of services
                           within the Village will support new residential and commercial growth in heavier
                           concentrations than any outlying areas in the Town.

                           Some concentration potential is believed to exist on Leishman Point and within the area
                           between the Iroquois Dam and Whitehouse Bay. The extent of actual concentration will
                           depend on the extent to which proposed development schemes for these areas can be
                           designed as self-sufficient packages. The overall density and intensity of development
                           in these areas -will undoubtedly be much less than within the Village waterfront.



                   B.      PUBLIC ACCESS AND RECREATION


                   Inventoly. (See Plate 18)

                   1.      Existing Public Access and Recreation Sites.

                           a.      Whittaker Park. The Village park extends from the mouth of Sucker Brook at
                                   Pine Street. Its facilities include two tennis courts, two basketball courts, one
                                   regulation baseball field, two little league/softball fields, a picnic area,
                                   playground equipment, walking/bicycle paths, and a boat launch with a 30'
                                   floating dock.

                           b.      Municipal Docks. The municipal docks are located in the Village park, off St.
                                   Lawrence Avenue at the end of Main Street. There is a fixed dock of about 70'


                                                                    H-33









                                  to accommodate larger boats and two floating docks of 30' each for smaller boats.
                                  The floating docks were added in the Summer of 1986 with assistance from a
                                  grant from the Adirondack North Country Association. Electricity is available
                                  at the dock upon request to the Village.

                          C.      Mooring Area. NYPA currently leases small parcels for private boat mooring
                                  and parking along the north side of St. Lawrence Avenue. The leased parcels
                                  cover the shoreline from just east of Green Road to just east of Beach Street.

                          d.      Town Sguare. As noted previously, there is a Town-owned park located on the
                                  four comers of the intersection of Lincoln Avenue and Main Street in the Village
                                  of Waddington. The park consists of a landscaped open space at the center of the
                                  Village.

                          e.      Waddington Beach. Waddington Beach is a Town park on the east side of
                                  Leishman Point, off of Rt. 37. its facilities include a swimming beach, picnic
                                  areas, a pavilion, restrooms, playground equipment, and water supply provided
                                  by an on-site well.

                          f.      Brandy Brook Boat Launch. The Brandy Brook boat launch is located off of Rt.
                                  37 at the mouth of Brandy Brook within the Coles Creek State Park. It is a State
                                  operated facility with anchorage, a boat launch ramp, and parking.

                          9-      Coles Creek State P     . The total area of Coles Creek State Park is 1800 acres,
                                  20 of which have been developed for public use. Its facilities include 148
                                  camping sites with electricity, 87 camping sites without electricity, a picnic area
                                  and playground, a protected swimming area, a laundry, and a camp store and
                                  recreation room. The park also provides 1.5 miles of accessible shoreline on the
                                  St. Lawrence River. The park opens on May 15th and closes September 3rd, but
                                  provides plowed access for winter fishing. 1988-89 attendance was 33,888.

                  2.      Existing Commercial Recreation Sites and Facilities

                          a.      Golf Course. In the Village, but located outside of the current waterfront area,
                                  is a privately owned 18-hole golf course with a clubhouse and a small restaurant.
                                  A pro-shop and cart rentals are also available.

                          b.      Bowling Allgy. Across from the Village park on Pine Street, just outside of the
                                  current waterfront boundary, is a year-round twelve lane bowling alley with a
                                  small bar and grill.

                          C.      Coles Creek Marina, Inc. The Coles Creek Marina is a private concession
                                  operated on State land through a contract with the State Office of Parks,
                                  Recreation and Historic Preservation. Its facilities include two main docks with


                                                                  11-34









                                 berthing for eighteen boats each, sizes from 20' to 30' with full electric and water
                                 hook-up; one dock with 20 berths for boats 16' to 18' and no utilities; a boat
                                 launch ramp; and a tackle shop with boat and small engine repair, gasoline sales,
                                 and restrooms. Outdoor winter boat storage is also available.

                 Analysis. (See Plate 18). T"he problems, issues and opportunities pertaining to public access
                 and recreation were evaluated in terms of the adequacy of existing facilities compared to current
                 demand, the likelihood of demand increasing substantially in the foreseeable future and the
                 potential for expanding the supply of public access and recreation sites and facilities to
                 accommodate such demand.


                 1.       Adequacy of existing facilities. In general, the public access and recreation facilities
                          within the Waddington waterfront area are considered adequate to meet current demands
                          with only a few noted exceptions. Each of the existing facilities - both public and private
                          (commercial) - is evaluated below.

                          a.     Whittaker Park. Heavy use of this park has resulted in a need to upgrade and
                                 expand present facilities. Possible improvements include additional parking,
                                 plantings and benches, and the resurfacing or refurbishing of existing athletic
                                 facilities, such as the tennis and basketball courts, and the baseball fields, but
                                 excludes any expansion in overall size due to area limitations.

                          b.     MuniciRal Docks. Two floating docks of 30' each were added to this facility in
                                 the Summer of 1986 with financial assistance from the Adirondack North Country
                                 Association.


                          C.     Town Square. This open space park is adequate, and no improvement or
                                 expansion is anticipated.

                          d.     Waddington Beach. This facility is adequate to meet current demands, but is
                                 expected to face significantly greater use as NYPA lands are sold and developed.

                          e.     Brandy Brook Boat Launch. Existing facilities adequately meet current demands.

                          f.     Coles Creek State Park. The annual attendance averages generally between 30
                                 and 35 thousand. This figure can be anticipated to rise due to the impact of the
                                 NYPA land sales and the related development. Furthermore, the expansion of
                                 Fort Drum has placed much greater demands upon all regional State Parks.

                          g.     Commercial Facilities. Indications are that the golf course, the bowling alley,
                                 and Coles Creek Marina, Inc. are adequate to meet current demands.






                                                                 H-35











                  2.      Future Demand for Public Access and Recreation Facilities


                          With the expansion of Fort Drum and the anticipated development resulting from the sale
                          of NYPA lands, the demand for public access and recreation facilities is expected to
                          increase significantly. While some of the local facilities are adequate to handle an
                          increase in demand, others will require improvement or expansion.

                          a.     Whittaker Park. With the improvements mentioned above, Whittaker Park should
                                 be adequate to meet demand in the near future. If longer range demand exceeds
                                 the capabilities of this site, the Village may need to consider an inland location
                                 for field sports and other active recreation uses requiring more space.

                          b.     Municipal Docks. With the additional docks planned for construction, these
                                 facilities should be adequate to meet the increasing demand for a few years.
                                 However, longer term demand - especially without private marinas - would
                                 require further expansion.

                          C.     Waddineton Beach. With the development of NYPA lands, some improvements
                                 or expansion of facilities may be needed to accommodate increased demand.
                                 Leishman Point has extensive area for additional recreation facilities as well as
                                 private development.

                          d.     Coles Creek State Park. In spite of the fluctuation in attendance at this park, the
                                 general trend is toward increased attendance. At the average rate of increase
                                 experienced over the past seven years, attendance at this facility will meet or
                                 exceed its capacity in two to three years. With the sale of NYPA lands and the
                                 expansion of Fort Drum, this trend is certain to be accelerated. In order to
                                 accommodate anticipated increased demand, additional acreage should be
                                 developed for active campground use.

                  3.      Potential for Improving and Expanding Public Access and Recreation Sites/Facilities.

                          a.     Whittaker         offers moderate to limited potential for expansion, but good
                                 potential for improvement. The extent of future expansion rests upon the extent
                                 to which the Village emphasizes water-dependent and water-enhanced recreational
                                 uses there.


                          b.     Coles Creek State Park. Given that less than 2% of its 1800 acres have been
                                 improved for active recreation use, the State park has a consi-derable amount of
                                 land for the expansion of campground facilities as developmental pressures in the
                                 region increase.

                          C.     Potential Commercial Marina at Leishman Poin . With the sale of NYPA lands,
                                 the opportunity arises to develop a commercial marina in the "bay" formed


                                                                 H-36









                                 between Leishman Point and the shoreline closest to River Road. Such a facility
                                 would help to accommodate the increasing demand for recreational boating in the
                                 area. Issues such as hazards due to prevailing wind and waves would have to be
                                 addressed prior to such development. Water depth is adequate, and access would
                                 be possible from the point.

                          d.     Ogden Island. The eastern tip of Ogden Island has great scenic value and has
                                 potential for small boat access. Upon the release of NYPA lands, day use for
                                 picnics and relaxation could be promoted.

                          e.     ILoquois Dam Visual Access. A public access site for viewing Iroquois Dam
                                 could be provided as part of the overall development scheme for this area of
                                 surplus NYPA lands.        Parking, landscaping, benches and, if possible, an
                                 observation tower would be appropriate.

                          f.     Potential Sucker Brook Marina.          There is potential for limited marina
                                 development on Sucker Brook. Lands retained by NYPA and leased to the
                                 Village could, in turn, be leased for development of a commercial marina to
                                 provide needed services for area boaters.

                          9.     Potential Recreation Trail. The Ogdensburg Bridge and Port Authority's probable
                                 sale of the Norwood and St. Lawrence railroad right-of-way offers the
                                 opportunity for development of a recreation trail -- possibly as part of a larger,
                                 county-wide trail system.


                   C.     HISTORIC AND ARCHEOLOGICAL RESOURCES. (See Plate 19)

                   Inventory. In 1980, the St. Lawrence-Eastern Ontario Commission conducted an inventory of
                   historic structures in the Town and Village. None of those identified as having potential historic
                   value, are located within the Town's waterfront area; twelve fall within the Village's existing
                   waterfront area boundary. Another forty-eight of the inventoried structures are situated between
                   St. Lawrence Avenue and Lincoln Avenue, and two of the structures lie south of Lincoln
                   Avenue.


                   Structures built before 1850 are found primarily along St. Lawrence Avenue, Main Street, and
                   Lincoln Avenue. St. Lawrence Avenue and Main Street also exhibit substantial numbers of
                   structures dating back to the latter half of the nineteenth century. A few post 1900 structures
                   were included in the inventory. The more notable structures are described blow:

                   I .    Row of brick houses (located along the northern side of St. Lawrence Avenue between
                          Main and Fenton Streets) - built between 1812 and the 1830's with styles ranging from
                          Greek Revival to Italianate.




                                                                 H-37









                   2.     Former Ogden Land Office (located on the northern side of St. Lawrence Avenue near
                          Oak Street) - constructed in 1800 as an architectural hybrid with a gambrel roof
                          suggestive of the Dutch Colonial Style.

                   3.     George Reddington House (located on the southwest side of Main Street) - constructed
                          in 1828 in the late Federal style for George Reddington, an attorney and early promoter
                          of Waddington.

                   4.     Pratt House (located southeast of the George Reddington House) - constructed in 1828
                          in the late Federal style for George Reddington, an attorney and early promoter of
                          Waddington.

                   5.     Hepburn Library (next to the Pratt House) - a fine example of Beaux Arts Classicism.
                          This large, one-story building, constructed in 1919, is one of several Hepburn libraries
                          donated by Barton Hepburn.

                   6.     James Thayer House (next to the Hepburn Library) - a two-story stone house constructed
                          in 1820 in the Greek Revival style.

                   7.     St. Paul's Episcopal Church (located on Lincoln Avenue between
                          Main Street and Fenton Street) - the oldest church north of the Mohawk River and the
                          first permanent church building in St. Lawrence County. It was erected between 1816-
                          1818 by David Ogden with funds from Trinity Church of New York City. It was
                          modelled after St. Paul's Church in New York City.

                   8.     Old Town Hall (located on Main Street near Lincoln Avenue) - built in 1884 by Issac
                          Johnson, a former slave living in Ontario, Canada.

                   9.     James Reddington House (located on the north comer of Lincoln Avenue and Clinton
                          Street) - a brick house in the Greek Revival style, originally built circa 1850 on what is
                          now the site of the Village elementary school. It was moved to its present location in
                          1929.


                   10.    David Ogden House (located on the landward side of St. Lawrence Avenue) -one of the
                          oldest homes in Waddington. Known as the Cottage House, this large frame house, built
                          in 1803, was used as a temporary residence for David A. Ogden while his island
                          residence was under construction.


                          The historian for the Town and Village of Waddington is planning to conduct a more
                          detailed study of historic sites. At that time, it may be determined that additional
                          structures merit inclusion in the above list of notable historic resources.


                          Archeological resources in the Waddington waterfront area consist of a single site near
                          the Iroquois Dam reported to show "traces of occupation" by prehistoric indians (pre-


                                                                 11-38









                           European contact). This site is thus identified as having potential for archeological
                           significance, according to records of Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic
                           Preservation. No formal study of this site has been conducted.


                   Analysis. (See Plate 19) None of the buildings shown on Plate 19 are on the National Register
                   of Historic Places. While the ten buildings specifically listed above are noteworthy individual
                   structures, many of the remaining structures contribute to the cultural heritage and historic
                   character, and contribute greatly to the aesthetic quality of the Village.

                   Potential exists for either a multiple resource nomination of the more noteworthy historic
                   structures or a district nomination, possibly as shown on Plate 19. Detailed evaluation will be
                   necessary to determine the actual significance of the Village's historic resources.

                   The significance of the archeological resources in the Town of Waddington have yet to be
                   determined.


                   The problems, issues and opportunities relating to the historic and archeological resources in the
                   Waddington waterfront area are as follows:

                   1.      Potential Threats to Historic and Archeological Resources. Of the noteworthy
                           structures listed above, two are Town-owned and one is under church ownership. The
                           remaining seven structures are privately held in uses ranging from year-round and
                           seasonal residences to apartments and commercial storage. While the public and semi-
                           public structures are unaltered, all but one of the private buildings have undergone some
                           form of alteration and/or addition. One structure has been relocated and altered.
                           Although the privately owned structures may be more susceptible to severe alteration,
                           or loss, than are public or semi-public structures, all of the structures face the threat of
                           inappropriate improvement. One example is the Hosea Fenton House (not fisted above),
                           a stone building constructed in 1860 which has had a Greek Revival brick addition on
                           one side and a later clapboard frame addition on the other.

                           At the time of the survey (1980) and today, the greatest threats to the historic structures
                           in the area as a whole have been either general deterioration due to the lack of capital
                           reinvestment or vacancies and turnover in uses. Deterioration can lead to demolition or
                           inappropriate restoration measures that reduce historic significance. Frequent turnover
                           in uses can increase the likelihood of inappropriate remodeling or alteration.

                           With anticipated economic resurgence in the North Country due to the expansion of Fort
                           Drum and the sample of NYPA lands for development, the historic structures may face
                           even greater threats deriving from population growth and development pressures.


     is                                                            11-39









                           Structures that are perceived as less significant have thegreatest risks of demolition and
                           alteration due to lesser concern for their preservation. This is decidedly a problem given
                           the lack of a detailed study to detrmine the historic significance of structures.

                           Threats to the possible archeological resources in the vicinity of the Iroquois Dam will
                           depend on the sale of surplus NYPA lands there and any specific development proposals
                           that ensue.   Development proposals for this area will require careful review in
                           consultation with the State Historic Preservation Offices.


                   2.      Issues of Preservation. The Village has several options for preserving its historic
                           buildings and, thus, its heritage. Nomination of individual or multiple sites or a district
                           to the National Register of Historic Places is one option. Its influence on preservation
                           is primarily one of prestige or recognition given to historic resources. Public education
                           -is another option similar to the first. It seeks community awareness of the value of
                           preserving historic structures as our link with the past. Capitalizing on historic resources
                           for tourism development and promotion is a third option. It usually requires that the first
                           two options have been successfully pursued. Finally, historic preservation can best be
                           assured through local regulations.

                           In the Village, all but the regulatory options are believed to be feasible. Their successful
                           application may cultivate sufficient individual and community attitudes toward historic
                           value to resolve the preservation issues.

                   3.      Tourism Opportunities. In addition to manifesting its cultural heritage, the historic
                           resources of a community are assets for tourism. With a wealth of 19th century
                           structures, the Village is indeed favored with opportunities to attract some of the growing
                           number of tourists interested in the heritage of New York State and the Nation. National
                           Register recognition, local historic preservation efforts and promotion will all help to
                           increase tourism potential. The Waddington Library is currently working with the local
                           historian to develop an historic walking tour guide.



                   D. AGRICULTURAL RESOURCES


                   InventoKy. (See Plate 19)

                   Areas of prime farmland soils are located throughout the Town waterfront area. (See Plate 6)
                   Most of it occurs west of the Village, including nearly half of the land area outside of the NYPA
                   properties. East of the Village, there are only a few such areas lying near the mouth of Brandy
                   Brook, along Coles Creek, and just south of Rt. 37 near Coles Creek State Park. Most of the
                   prime farmland soils in the waterfront area are covered by forest or forest brushland.

                   A large agricultural district encompasses two portions of the Town's waterfront area. One lies
                   west of the Village and includes all of the land south of Rt. 37 from Buck Rd. to the Town line


                                                                  11-40









                   plus a contiguous area north of Rt. 37 east of Whitehouse Bay. The other area lies east of the
                   Village and includes large areas of land on either side of Coles Creek. Active farming occurs
                   mostly within the agricultural district, with the exception of a small area of land adjacent to the
                   Village's west side and a small area along the west side of Brandy Brook near the railroad. The
                   major agricultural activity is dairy farming, including pasture land and hay crops.


                   Analysis. (See Plate 19) In spite of a general decline in farming within the Town's waterfront
                   area, it persists as a currently viable activity. This can be attributed to the absence of coastal
                   development pressure and land speculation, the extent of prime farmland soils and the influence
                   of the agricultural district formed in 1975.

                   With the potential for substantial new development of surplus New York Power Authority lands,
                   population growth and expansion of local tourism, agricultural uses along NY Route 37 west of
                   the Village will face new pressure from competing land uses. The manner in which such
                   pressures are handled will determine the future of coastal agriculture in the Town. Non-
                   agricultural uses must be guided away from areas with prime farmland soils, especially within
                   the agricultural district and outside the district where such soils are currently in active
                   agricultural use.

                   In particular, three areas of active farming are most likely to be threatened. The first involves
                   agricultural uses south of the Iroquois Dam. Farming occurs there on both sides of NY Route
                   37, i.e., both within and outside of the agricultural district. Slightly more non-prime than prime
                   farmland soils are affected. The second location is along the south side of NY Route 37 near
                   Whitehouse Bay. Active farming there is mostly on prime farmland soils within the agricultural
                   district. The third location involves roughly equal amounts of prime and non-prime farmland
                   soils just outside the Village's western limits. There, most of the prime farmland lies to the
                   north of the state highway. This location is entirely outside the agricultural district.


                   Less development pressure is likely to occur in an area of active farming midway between Buck
                   Road and Rt. 131 (Connie Wood Road) and in the portion of the agricultural district situated
                   across NY Route 37 to the northwest. Prime farmland soils near Brandy Brook and Coles Creek
                   are not expected to experience any serious pressure for development, because of active farming
                   there.

                   Generally, the extensive prime farmland soils and active farms must be considered opportunities
                   for agriculture to continue as an important part of the local economy.









                                                                  H-41










                                             EXISTING LAND AND WATER USES


                  Due to the larger number of small parcels and greater variety of land uses within the Village,
                  the inventory and analysis of its existing land and water uses are presented separately from that
                  of the Town.



                  A.      EXISTING LAND USE


                  InventoKy (See Plate   20)

                  1.      ViUage. The types of existing land use within the Village are residential, commercial,
                          public/serni-public, and vacant/undeveloped. The most intensive land uses occur within
                          a nearly equal distance in all directions from the Town Park in the center of the Village
                          at Lincoln Avenue and Main Street. Each type of land use is discussed below.

                          a.     Residential. Within the Village's current waterfront boundary,
                                 only a few small areas of single family residential land use are evident: those
                                 along the northerly side of St. Lawrence Avenue and on the southwesterly side
                                 of Clark Point. 'Me proposed expansion of the local waterfront area would
                                 encompass the extensive area of single family residential uses between Beech
                                 Street and Pine Street, a number of apartment units in the commercial core area,
                                 and a few isolated duplexes. Scattered single family residential land uses to the
                                 west of Beech Street, along Brookview Drive and on Franklin Road southeast of
                                 the golf course would also be included by the boundary expansion.

                          b.     Commercial. The current waterfront area of the Village has little in the way of
                                 commercial uses. Expansion of the boundary would include the commer-cial core
                                 area on Main Street south of St. Lawrence Avenue, several other commercial uses
                                 scattered between Beech Street and Pine Street, and the golf course.

                          C.     Public/Semi-Publi . Within the current waterfront boundary, the uses in this
                                 category are the NYPA lands "used" for flood control purposes or leased to the
                                 Village for a park, water supply or sewage treatment purposes. Expansion of the
                                 waterfront area will include public uses along Main Street and Lincoln Avenue
                                 as well as semi-public uses along Main Street, Fenton Street, Oak Street, Lincoln
                                 Avenue and Franklin Road.


                          d.     Vacant/UndeveloW. Most of Clark Point and a strip along the north side of the
                                 west end of St. Lawrence Avenue are the only areas within the current waterfront
                                 boundary that fall in this category. Expansion of the boundary will add to this
                                 category substantial areas of undeveloped lands west of Beach Street (south of St.
                                 Lawrence Avenue) and east of Little Sucker Brook and smaller areas along the
                                 east side Beach St. and the west side of Pine St.



                                                                 11-42










                 2.       Town


                          a.     Agriculture.    Agricultural uses occur intermittently throughout the Town
                                 waterfront area. West of the Village, there are four areas: one large area at Rt.
                                 37 and Brown Church Road; two areas south of Rt. 37 between Connie Wood
                                 Road and Buck Road; and one very small area adjacent to the Village line on
                                 both sides of Rt. 37. East of the Village there is a small area just north of where
                                 the railroad meets Brandy Brook and three areas occurring along either side of
                                 Coles Creek.


                          b.     Most residential land uses within the Town's waterfront area occur west of the
                                 Village along NY Route 37 with small concentrations on the southerly side of
                                 Whitehouse Bay and along River Road. Isolated residential uses are found to the
                                 east of the Village along NY Route 37, Allison McGinnis Road and Irish
                                 Settlement Road. Almost ail of these residential uses are single family. A
                                 multiple family use is located on NY Route 37 east of the Village.

                          C.     Commercial. Commercial uses in the Town's waterfront lie mainly west of the
                                 Village along Rt. 37 where there are five isolated commercial operations. To the
                                 east of the Village there are only two commercial uses, likewise isolated and
                                 located along Rt. 37.

                          d.     Public/Semi-Publi . Within the waterfront area the public uses
                                 consist of non surplus NYPA lands "used" for flood control, the Iroquois Dam
                                 and the Waddington Town Beach on Leishman Point in the western part of the
                                 Town and the Coles Creek State Park campgrounds, the Coles Creek State Park
                                 marina and a State boat-launch ramp on Brandy Brook in the eastern part. The
                                 one semi-public use in the waterfront area is a church near the northwest comer
                                 of Rt. 37 and Brown Church Road.


                          e.     Vacant/Undevelopgd. The vast majority of the land within the
                                 Town waterfront area is vacant/undeveloped. This includes the undeveloped
                                 portions of 'large, rural residential lots and those NYPA lands which were
                                 originally acquired for protection against fluctuations in Lake St. Lawrence, but
                                 are now deemed surplus (with the exception of State and local park uses). 'Me
                                 surplus NYPA lands make up approximately half of all vacant lands in the Town
                                 waterfront area.



                  B.      EXISTING WATER USES


                  Inventory. (See Plate 20)

                  Recreational boating, fishing, and water-skiing are water uses occurring throughout Lake St.
                  Lawrence. There are several sites for the docking and/or launching of boats within the
                  waterfront area, including: the municipal docks at the end of Main St.; the boat launch at the


                                                                 11-43









                  Village park; the State boat launch at Brandy Brook; and Coles Creek Marina, Inc. Swimming
                  beaches are provided at Waddington Beach on Leishman Point and at Coles Creek Campground.

                  The shipping channel on the St. Lawrence River runs just north of the inter-national boundary
                  only occasionally crossing over to the U.S. side. Several navigational aides are located along
                  the channel within the Waddington waterfront area. There is also a sewer outfall located near
                  the Village sewer treatment plant at the mouth of Big Sucker Brook.

                  It is evident that existing water uses are confined to municipal level functions and navigation
                  along the Seaway. Public water uses are adequate for the present. On the other hand, NYPA
                  ownership has foreclosed all private water uses - recreational or otherwise. Commercial marinas
                  are notably absent. The sale of surplus NYPA lands should open the possibility of including
                  such uses as part of resort development schemes or as separate operations.

                  Analysis. (See Plate 21). Problems confronting existing land uses are discussed below in terms
                  of relative stability, general compatibility and appropriateness for beneficial use of coastal
                  resources in the respective local waterfront areas of the Town and Village. As noted throughout
                  this section of the program, the excessive land holding of NYPA is the central issue. The
                  settlement of this issue through the sale of surplus NYPA lands presents numerous opportunities
                  to resolve existing land use problems and promote more beneficial land uses throughout the local
                  waterfront area. Coordinated and comprehensive planning efforts for surplus NYPA lands offer
                  an excellent opportunity to address the overall land use picture for the entire waterfront.

                  1.     Areas Susceptible to Change.

                         a.      Village. Within the Village, Clark Point and the commercial core area are the
                                 largest areas where existing land uses are highly susceptible to change. Sale and
                                 private development of OBPA holdings in the former area will heighten the
                                 pressure for development of adjacent undeveloped properties and may induce
                                 changes in the scattered existing residential and commercial uses there. General
                                 population growth in the area from development of surplus NYPA lands and
                                 increased tourism would be likely to attract new commercial uses to the latter
                                 area. Along the northsides of St. Lawrence Avenue and Route 37 undeveloped
                                 private land and some residential properties may also be highly susceptible to
                                 pressure for commercial uses. The largely undeveloped area west of Beach Street
                                 (between St. Lawrence Avenue and NY Route 37) should be subject to only
                                 moderate pressure for change -- presumably to residential. Surplus NYPA land
                                 along the eastern side of the railroad and undeveloped land southeast of the golf
                                 course would also be moderately susceptible.

                         b.      Town. Almost all of the surplus NYPA lands and the western half of Leishman
                                 Point will be highly susceptible to change. The more remote and inaccessible
                                 surplus lands, such as those along the railroad and the two southernmost parcels
                                 in Coles Creek State Park, are believed to have only moderate susceptibility.
                                 Privately owned lands along the western part of NY Route 37 would experience
                                 a moderate increase in the likelihood of land use changes given the sale and 40

                                                                11-44









                                  subsequent development around Whitehouse Bay. General population growth and
                                  increased tourism would moderately affect undeveloped land on the northern side
                                  of the River Road and along NY Route 37 at the Buck Road intersection and near
                                  the Village's western limits.

                  2.      Marginal, Inappropriate or Incompatible Uses.

                          a.      Villag . From the perspective of best, long term use of the waterfront, there are
                                  several sites in the Village where existing land uses may fall into this category --
                                  depending on the actual changes in land use that result from the sale of public
                                  lands, increased tourism and economic development.

                                  First, if commercial resort and commercial recreation uses are developed on
                                  Clark Point, the few existing residential uses may face problems with
                                  compatibility.   If residential uses are developed there, then the existing
                                  commercial use may not prove compatible. Second, the two commercial uses on
                                  the north side of Lincoln Avenue may be inappropriate if their presence serves
                                  as an inducement for or justification of additional commercial uses there. Thus
                                  far, the Village has avoided the typical commercial uses there. Thus far, the
                                  Village has avoided the typical commercial strip development land use pattern
                                  along its principal thoroughfare.     Finally, the Norwood and St. Lawrence
                                  Railroad is a marginal use.

                          b.      Town. Marginal land uses include a small cluster of small cottages or camps on
                                  Hanlon Road south of Whitehouse Bay, intermittent and dispersed agricultural
                                  uses on land leased from NYPA and the essentially unusable Norwood and St.
                                  Lawrence Railroad.      No existing uses were identified as inappropriate or
                                  incompatible. Nevertheless, the small number of existing commercial uses along
                                  NY Route 37 could be classified as inappropriate if they were to encourage strip
                                  commercial development.

                  3.      Prime Areas for Beneficial Uses


                          The following areas are considered prime for the development of uses which would
                          benefit the local waterfront area.


                          (Area I - Clark Point) - potential mixed resort, marina and residential uses with north
                          to south transition from higher to lower density/intensity.

                          (Area 2 - Whittaker Park) - open air concerts, band shell, more docks, holding tank,
                          pumpout and other water-dependent recreational uses eventually displacing ball fields
                          (relocated).

                          (Area 3 - Commercial Core) - hotel, restaurant, bait and tackle, marine sundries as well
                          as additional convenience commerce and services related to both population growth and
                          tourism. Possible tourist center.


                                                                  11-45








                           (Area 4 - Railroad Right-of-WUJ - recreation trail for cross country skiing,
                           snowmobiles, cycling and hiking.

                           (Area 5 - Whitehouse Bay Environ-sl - major year-round and summer home development
                           plus resort and public access uses.

                           (Area 6 - Oeden Island) - low density large lot residential (seasonal) uses and day use
                           picnic area.
                           (Area 7 - Leishman Point - resort/marina and residential uses for western half of point.

                           (Area 8 - Coles Creek State Park) - expansion of state park campgrounds and/or private
                           campground development.


                                             04PORTANT ECONOMIC ACTIVITEES


                    Five economic activities are considered most important for revitalization of the local waterfront
                    area: sale and development of excess public lands, expansion of the currently limited tourism
                    economy, in-fill development of residential uses in areas supported by adequate infrastructure
                    and community services, stabiliza-tion and strengthening of existing commercial facilities and
                    protection of viable agricultural uses. The first two activities are vital in both communities.
                    While the third and fourth pertain mostly to the Village, the fifth activity is more essential to
                    the Town. Each activity is discussed briefly, below:

                    1.     Excess Public Lands. Shoreline development in general and both water-
                           dependent and water-enhanced uses in particular have been unusually limited due to the
                           extent of lands held by NYPA and, to a lesser extent, by the OBPA. Economic
                           development in both communities will hinge largely on the degree to which productive
                           and beneficial uses can be attracted to their respective waterfront areas.

                    2.     Tourism. Presently, local tourism is limited to the Coles Creek State Park campgrounds
                           and use of Village and State boat launches, the State Park marina and the municipal
                           docks. Private marinas, motels, hotels, gift shops, resorts and restaurants are either
                           absent or marginally evident. The potential for tourism development is considered to be
                           high, given continued growth in regional demand for public access and recreation
                           facilities, especially as a result of the Fort Drum expansion. In order to reach such
                           potentials, significant levels of intergovernmental cooperation and public/private
                           participation will be required.

                    3.     In-fill Development. The quiet residential streets in the Village's waterfront contribute
                           significantly to the character and quality of life there. With supporting infrastructure and
                           services, the partly developed areas west of Beach Street hold promise for construction
                           of additional year-round single family residences depending on how many new
                           employment opportunities can be generated by tourism and industrial development in the
                           northern part of St. Lawrence County.


                                                                   11-46









                  4.      Commercial Revitalization. Deterioration, vacancies and turnover in small businesses
                          were noted as problems in the Village's commercial core area. These are clear signs of
                          economic weakness there. Again, concerted public/private participation will be necessary
                          to reverse the trends of commercial decline and instability. The successful revitalization
                          of the commercial core area of the Village will benefit year-round and seasonal residents
                          and tourists alike. Restriction of commercial  strip development along Lincoln Avenue
                          in the Village and NY Route 37 in the Town will also be necessary to protect core area
                          businesses.


                  5.      Agriculture. Although agriculture has declined locally - following State-wide and
                          Nationwide trends, it still represents an important source of local income and demand for
                          local business services and products. Town officials will need to guide development for
                          productive use of excess lands and for tourism in a manner which allows agricultural uses
                          to continue.

                   ENplanation of Policy (Ref- Plates 13-17)

                   All government agencies must ensure that their actions further the revitalization of waterfront
                   areas within the Town of Waddington and Village of Waddington. The transfer or purchase of
                   property; the construction of a building, park, road or other infrastructure; and the provision
                   of tax incentives to businesses are examples of governmental means for spurring waterfront
                   revitalization. When such actions are proposed, they must be analyzed to determine if they
                   would contribute to or adversely affect the Town's or Village's waterfront revitalization efforts.


                                                                  111-3









                   Such efforts must be recognized as the most effective means of encouraging economic growth
                   in formerly dynamic areas of these communities.

                   While Policy I reflects the general aim of revitalizing and restoring all deteriorated and
                   underutilized areas of the waterfront, Policies IA and IB are more specific. They target local
                   revitalization efforts toward the Village's commercial core area at LaGrasse Street and St.
                   Lawrence Avenue, the vacant property of the Ogdensburg Bridge and Port Authority (OBPA)
                   on Clark Point and various holdings of the New York Power Authority (NYPA) which are not
                   needed for flood control as part of maintaining the Lake St. Lawrence "power pool".

                   The Village and Town have the primary responsibility for implementing the actual development
                   and redevelopment aspects of these policies through municipal planning and land use regulation
                   measures and local efforts to induce economic growth. Local implementation, however, will
                   rest substantially upon the extent and appropriateness of land disposition by NYPA and OBPA
                   and the roles played by other local, State and Federal agencies during the sale and subsequent
                   development of surplus lands.

                   Therefore, in furtherance of these revitalization policies, government agencies must consider all
                   other pertinent policies in this program. Particular emphasis is required for those development
                   policies aimed at facilitating the siting of water dependent uses, guiding development to areas
                   with adequate infrastructure and public services, and simplifying permit procedures. (See
                   Policies 2, 2A, 2B and 6).

                   The following guidelines are to be used in assessing proposed government actions affecting local
                   waterfront revitalization in general and in the specific target areas:

                   1.     Priority should be given to water-dependent and water-enhanced uses which will offer
                          employment opportunities, improve coastal image and expand tourism.

                   2.     The actions should enhance existing and anticipated uses by:

                          a.     improving deteriorated conditions, if present, on the site subject to the action;

                          b.     providing for development of the site in a manner compatible with the character
                                 of the area in terms of scale, architectural style, density and intensity of use;

                          C.     serving as catalysts to private investment or reinvestment in both the subject site
                                 as well as other deteriorated or underutilized sites nearby;

                          d.     improving adjacent and upland views of the water; and

                          e.     at a minimum, not causing deterioration, imposing obstacles to other public or
                                 private revitalization initiatives in the area, or affecting important views in a
                                 detrimental manner.



                                                                 1111-4









                          f.      ensure the maintenance of appropriate public access.

                   3.     The actions should have the potential to:

                          a.      improve opportunities for multiple use of the site, when appropriate;'

                          b.      benefit the local economic base; and

                          C.      at a minimum, not jeopardize that base.

                   4.     The action should generally satisfy the guidelines of other applicable policies set forth
                          in this program.

                   5.     If the action is proposed to take place outside of a deteriorated and/or underutilized
                          waterfront area suitable for redevelopment and is either within the Town, Village or an
                          adjacent coastal community, the agency proposing the action must first determine if it is
                          feasible to take the action within the deteriorated and/or underutilized waterfront in
                          question. If such an action is feasible, the agency should give strong consideration to
                          taking the action in that area. If -not feasible, the agency must take the appropriate steps
                          to ensure that the action does not cause further deterioration of that area.


                   POLICY 2               FACILITATE THE SITING OF WATER-DEPENDENT USES AND
                                          FACILITIES ON OR ADJACENT TO COASTAL WATERS.


                   POLICY 2A              FACILITATE AND PROMOTE THE EXPANSION AND NEW
                                          LOCATION OF WATER-ENHANCED BUSINESSES IN THE
                                          VILLAGE'S COMMERCIAL CORE AREA.

                   Explanation of Poligy (Ref- Plates 15 and 17)

                   There is a finite amount of waterfront space available for development purposes in the State's
                   coastal area. Consequently, while the demand for any given piece of property will fluctuate in
                   response to varying economic and social conditions, on a statewide-basis the only reasonable
                   expectation is that long term demand for waterfront space will intensify.

                   Public control of the shorelands along Lake St. Lawrence -- by the New York Power Authority
                   (NYPA) to protect the "power pool", by the Thousand Island State Park Commission for Coles
                   Creek State Park and by the Ogdensburg Bridge and Port Authority (OBPA) for potential port
                   development - has virtually ruled out private development on or near the shoreline in the local
                   waterfront area. With no developable shoreland available, there could be no competition for
                   space.

                   However, recent reevaluation of flood control needs by NYPA has resulted in substantial
                   shoreland acreage being identified as surplus. The proposed marketing and sale of such acreage


                                                                   IH-5









                    will invite private development and, ultimately, competition for newly available waterfront
                    space.


                    The traditional method of land allocation, i.e., the real estate market, with or without local land
                    use controls, offers little assurance that uses which require waterfront sites will, in fact, have
                    access to coastal waters.     To ensure such "water-dependent" uses can continue to be
                    accommodated within the local water-front area, government agencies will avoid undertaking,
                    funding or otherwise approving non-water dependent uses when such uses would preempt the
                    reasonably foreseeable development of water-dependent uses; furthermore government agencies
                    will utilize appropriate existing programs to encourage water-dependent activities.

                    The following uses and facilities are considered as water-ftendent:

                    I .    Uses which depend on the utilization of resources found in coastal waters (for example:
                           fishing);

                    2.     Recreational activities which depend on access to coastal waters (for example:
                           swimming, fishing, boating, wildlife viewing);

                    3.     Uses involved in the sea/land transfer of goods (for example: docks, loading areas,
                           pipelines, short- and long-term storage facilities;

                    4.     Structures needed for navigational purposes (for example: -dams and lighthouses);

                    5.     Flood and erosion protection structures (for example: breakwaters and bulkheads);

                    6.     Facilities needed to store and service boats and ships (for
                           example: marinas, boat repair, boat construction yards);

                    7.     Uses requiring large quantities of water for processing and cooling purposes (for
                           example: hydroelectric power plants);

                    S.     Scientific/educational activities which, by their nature, require access to coastal waters
                           (for exarnple: water resource nature centers); and

                    9.     Support facilities which are necessary for the successful functioning of permitted water-
                           dependent uses (for example: parking lots, snack bars, first-aid stations, short-term
                           storage facilities). Though these uses must be near the given water-dependent uses they
                           should, as much as possible, be sited inland from the water-dependent use rather than on
                           the shore.


                    In addition to water-dependent uses, uses which are enhanced by a waterfront location should
                    be encouraged to locate along the shore, though not at the expense of water-dependent uses. A
                    water-enhanced use is defined as a use that has no critical dependence on obtaining a waterfront    0
                                                                   IH-6









                   location, but the profitability of the use and/or the enjoyment level of the users would be
                   increased significantly if the use were adjacent to, or had visual access to, the waterfront (e.g.,
                   restaurants, hotels and other tourist accommodations).

                   The Town and Village will facilitate the location and expansion of water-dependent uses in its
                   waterfront with particular emphasis on those which will contribute to local revitalization efforts
                   and tourism development. Uses to be facilitated include marinas, boat repair or service
                   facilities, bait and tackle shops, public boat launches and docks, fishing charter boat operations
                   and other marine-related businesses (salvage, dredging, construction, etc.). Within the Village's
                   waterfront area, the primary areas targeted for such use are Clark Point, the mouth of Sucker
                   Brook, near the municipal docks north of St. Lawrence Avenue and the short stretch of shoreline
                   between Beach Street and Green Road. Water-dependent uses will be encouraged within the
                   Town's waterfront area on NYPA shorelands where lease agreements might allow private marina
                   and marine-related commercial facilities direct use of the shoreline in order to enhance the
                   potential for restaurants, resorts and other water-enhanced uses on adjacent surplus lands further
                   from the water's edge. This approach to facilitate private water-dependent uses would be suited
                   to shorelines near Leishman Point, at the mouth of Brandy Brook and on Ogden Island. In the
                   event that future investigation rules out possible muskellunge spawning and nursery area in
                   Whitehouse Bay, the bay's shoreline would logically be a target for water-dependent uses.

                   Water-enhanced uses will be encouraged in the Village's commercial core area, on the surplus
                   (non-shoreline) NYPA lands and on Clark Point. Such uses include restaurants, tourist
                   accommodations, gift shops and other resort and commercial recreation facilities.

                   As in the target areas noted above, the selection of other sites where water-dependent uses will
                   be encouraged and facilitated shall adhere to the following guidelines:

                   I .     Competition for space -- competition for space or the potential for it, should be indicated
                           before any given site is promoted for water-dependent uses. The intent is to match
                           water-dependent uses with suitable locations and thereby reduce any conflicts between
                           competing uses that might arise. Not just any site suitable for development should be
                           chosen as a water-dependent use area. The choice of a site should be made with some
                           meaningful impact on the real estate market anticipated. The anticipated impact could
                           either be one of increased protection to existing water-dependent activities or else the
                           encouragement of water-dependent development.

                   2.      In-place facilities and services -- most water-dependent uses, if they are to function
                           effectively, will require basic public facilities and services. In selecting appropriate areas
                           for water-dependent uses, consideration should be given to the following factors: the
                           availability of public sewer and water services; ability to accommodate parking and
                           necessary storage; and the accessibility of the site via existing streets.

                   3.      Access to navigational channels -- if commercial shipping, commercial fishing, or
                           recreational boating are planned, the locality should consider setting aside a site, within


                                                                   IH-7









                          ,a sheltered harbor, from which access to adequately sized navigation channels would be
                          assured.


                   4.     Compatibility with adjacent uses and the protection of other coastal resources -- water-
                          dependent uses should be located so that they enhance, or at least do not detract from,
                          the surrounding community. Consideration should also be given to such factors as the
                          protection of nearby residential areas from odors, noise and traffic.         Affirmative
                          approaches should also be employed so that water-dependent uses and adjacent uses can
                          serve to complement one another. For example, a recreation-oriented water-dependent
                          use area could be sited in an area already oriented towards tourism. Clearly, a marina,
                          fishing pier or swimming area would enhance, and in turn be enhanced by, nearby
                          restaurants, motels and other non-water-oriented tourist activities. Water-dependent uses
                          must also be sited so as to avoid adverse impacts on the significant coastal resources.

                   5.     Preference to underutilized sites -- the promotion of water-dependent uses should serve
                          to foster development as a result of the capital programming, permit expediting, and
                          other State and local actions that will be used to promote the site. Nowhere is such a
                          stimulus needed more than in those portions of the Village and Town waterfront areas
                          which are currently underutilized.

                   6.     Providing for expansion -- a primary objective of the policy is to
                          create a process by which water-dependent uses can be accommodated well into the
                          future. State agencies, the Town and the Village should therefore give consideration to
                          long-term space needs and, where practicable, accommodate future demand by
                          identifying more land than is needed in the present.

                   In promoting water-dependent uses, all government agencies should favor them in terms of
                   capital programming, leasing arrangements of publicly owned land, abatement of property taxes,
                   loan guarantees, low interest loans, economic development strategies and permitting procedures.
                   The Town and Village will develop and maintain a list of suitable sites available for non-water
                   dependent uses to assist developers seeking alternative sites for their proposed uses.

                  Not Applicable. The Village/Town of Waddington waterfront does not contain any small harbor
                  area.

                  POLICY 5C             DISCOURAGE THE DEVELOPMENT OF USES WHICH, BY
                                        REASON OF THEIR DEMAND FOR NEW COMMUNITY
                                        SERVICES AND FACILITIES OR THEIR EMPOSITION OF
                                        BURDENS ON EXISTING SERVICES AND FACILITIES, WOULD
                                        REQUIRE DISPROPORTIONATE PUBLIC COSTS IN
                                        COMPARISON TO PUBLIC BENEFITS.


                  ExRlanatign of Pg-licy, (Refi. Plates 13, 15 and 17) The governing bodies of the Town and
                  Village can guide and direct the pattern of development in the waterfront by use of their
                  construction, taxing, funding and regulatory powers. Whenever it is feasible, these powers will
                  be used to foster development within, contiguous to or in close proximity to existing areas of
                  concentrated development where adequate infrastructure and public services exist or are planned
                  to be made available with reasonable assurances. Measures to concentrate new development will
                  give due consideration to development limiting factors such as bedrock, soil condition, slope,
                  flood hazard, erosion potential, community character and sensitive environmental areas.

                  Within the Village, efforts to concentrate development must be paralleled by the maintenance
                  and improvement of existing infrastructure which otherwise will be subject to deterioration and
                  declining level of service. Measures to protect and prolong the useful life of existing streets,
                  sewers, water lines and other infrastructure will be given high priority.


                                                                111-9









                   Portions of the New York Power Authority's surplus lands in the western waterfront would be
                   suited to moderate concentrations of development provided such development were essentially
                   self-sufficient with respect to water supply and sewage disposal and roads were built to Town
                   standard and offered for dedication. To insure self-sufficiency, development proposals would
                   need to be considered as unified packages, i.e., planned unit developments or cluster
                   subdivisions.


                   In other areas of the waterfront, inaccessibility; greater environmental sensitivity; smaller and
                   less suitable parcels of surplus land; and aesthetic concerns are likely to rule out any
                   concentrations of development by way of unified, self-sufficient packages. The public costs of
                   providing community services and infrastructure would undoubtedly outweigh the public
                   benefits. Low density, dispersed develop-ment would be appropriate in such areas.

                   For any action that would result in large scale development or an action which would facilitate
                   or serve future development, determination shall be made as to whether the action is within,
                   contiguous to, or in close proximity to an area of concentrated development where infrastructure
                   and public services are adequate.

                   The following guidelines shall be used in making that determination.

                   1.      Cities, built-up suburban Towns and Villages, and rural Villages in the coastal area are
                           generally areas of concentrated development where infrastructure and public services are
                           adequate.

                   2.      Other locations in the coastal area may also be suitable for development, if three or more
                           of the following conditions prevail:

                           a)     Population density of the area surrounding or adjacent to the proposed site
                                  exceeds 1,000 persons per square mile;

                           b)     Fewer than 50% of the buildable sites (i.e., sites meeting lot area requirements
                                  under existing local zoning regulations) within I mile radius of the proposed site
                                  are vacant;

                           c)     Proposed site is served by or is near to public or private sewer and water lines;

                           d)     Public transportation service is available within 1 mile of the proposed site;

                           e)     A significant concentration of commercial and/or industrial activity is within one-
                                  half mile of the proposed site.

                   3.      The following points shall be considered in assessing the adequacy of an area's
                           infrastructure and public services:



                                                                  HI-10









                          a)    Streets and highways serving the proposed site can safely accommodate the peak
                                traffic generated by the proposed land development;

                          b)    Development's water needs (consumptive and fire fighting) can be met by the
                                existing water supply system;

                          C)    Sewage disposal system can accommodate the wastes generated by the
                                development;

                          d)    Energy needs of the proposed land development can be accommodated by existing
                                utility systems;

                          e)    Stormwater runoff from the proposed site can be accommodated by on-site and/or
                                off-site facilities; and

                          f)    Schools, police and fire protection, and health and social services are adequate
                                to meet the needs of the population expected to live, work, shop, or conduct
                                business in the area as a result of the development.


                  It is recognized that certain forms of development may and/or should occur at locations which
                  are not within or near areas of concentrated development. Thus, this coastal development policy
                  does not apply to the following types of development projects and activities.

                          Economic activities which depend upon sites at or near locations
                          where natural resources are present, e.g., lumber industry, quarries.

                          Development which is designed to be a self-contained activity, e.g., a small college, an
                          academic or religious retreat.

                          Water-dependent uses with site requirements not compatible with this policy or when
                          alternative sites are not available.


                          Uses and/or activities which because of public safety consideration should be located
                          away from populous areas.

                          Rehabilitation or restoration of existing structures and facilities.

                          Development projects which are essential to the construction and/or operation of the
                          above uses and activities.


                  In certain areas where development is encouraged by these policies, the condition of existing
                  public water and sewage infrastructure and other services may necessitate improvements. Those
                  State and federal agencies charged with allocating funds for investments in public services and

                    water and sewer facilities should give high priority to the needs of such areas so that full
                    advantage may be taken of the array of their other infrastructure components in promoting
                    waterfront revitalization.

                    For specific types of development activities and, in areas suitable for such development, the.
                    Town and Village will make every reasonable effort to coordinate and expedite local permit
                    procedures and regulatory activities as long as the integrity of the regulatory objectives is not
                    jeopardized. Nevertheless, the Town and Village efforts in expediting permit procedures are
                    part of a much larger system for regulating development, which also includes county, state and
                    federal government agencies. Regulatory programs and procedures should be coordinated and
                    synchronized between all levels of government and, if necessary, legislative and/or
                    programmatic changes will be recommended from the local level.

                                           HABITATS.


                    Explanation of Policy

                    Habitat protection is recognized as fundamental to assuring the survival of fish and wildlife
                    populations. Certain habitats are particularly critical to the maintenance of a given population
                    and therefore merit special protection. Such habitats exhibit one or more of the following
                    characteristics: (1)      essential to the survival of a large portion of a particular fish or wildlife
                    population (e.g., feeding grounds, nursery areas); (2) support populations of rare and
                    endangered species; (3) are found at a very low frequency within a coastal region; (4) support
                    fish and wildlife populations having significant commercial and/or recreational value; and (5)
                    would be difficult or impossible to replace.

                    In order to protect and preserve a significant habitat, land and water uses or development shall
                    not be undertaken if such actions destroy or significantly impair the viability of an area as a
                    habitat. When the action significantly reduces a vital resource (e.g., food, shelter, living space)
                    or changes environmental conditions (e.g., temperature, substrate, salinity) beyond the tolerance
                    range of an organism, then the action would be considered to "significantly impair" the habitat.
                    Indicators of a significantly impaired habitat may include: reduced carrying capacity, changes
                    in community structure (food chain relationships, species diversity), reduced productivity and/or
                    increased incidence of disease and mortality.


                                                                    111-12









                   The range of generic activities most likely to affect significant coastal fish and wildlife habitats
                   include but are not limited to the following:

                   1       Draining wetlands, ponds: Cause changes in vegetation, or changes in groundwater and
                           surface water hydrology.

                   2.      Filling wetlands, shallow areas of streams, lakes, bays, estuaries: May change physical
                           character of substrate (e.g., sandy to muddy, or smother vegetation, alter surface water
                           hydrology).

                   3.      Grading land: Results in vegetation removal, increased surface runoff, or increase soil
                           erosion and downstream sedimentation.


                   4.      Clear cutting:' May cause loss of vegetative cover, increase fluctuations in amount of
                           surface runoff, or increase streambed scouring, soil erosion, sediment deposition.

                   5.      Dredging or excavation: May cause change in substrate composition, possible release
                           of contaminants otherwise stored in sediments, removal of aquatic vegetation, or change
                           circulation patterns and sediment transport mechanisms.

                   6.      Dredge spoil disposal: May induce shoaling of littoral areas, or change circulation
                           patterns.

                   7.      Physical alteration of shore areas through channelization or construction of shore

                   8.      Introduction, storage or disposal of pollutants such as chemical, petrochemical, solid
                           wastes, nuclear wastes, toxic material pesticide, sewage effluent, urban and rural runoff,
                           leachate of hazardous and toxic substances stored in landfills: May cause increased
                           mortality or sublethal effects on organisms, alter their reproductive capabilities, or reduce
                           their value as food organisms.

                   The range of physical, biological and chemical parameters which should be considered include
                   but are not limited to the following:

                   1.      Physical parameters such as: Living space, circulation, flushing rates, tidal amplitude,
                           turbidity, water temperature, depth (loss of littoral zone), morphology, substrate type,
                           vegetation, structure, erosion and sedimentation rates.

                   2.      Biological parameters such as: Community structure, food chain relationships, species
                           diversity, predator/prey relationships, population size, mortality rates, reproductive rates,
                           behavioral patterns, and migratory patterns.

                   3.      Chemical parameters such as: Dissolved oxygen, carbon dioxide, ph, dissolved solids,


                                                                   111-13









                          nutrients, organics, salinity, pollutants (heavy metals, toxic and hazardous materials).

                   When a proposed action is likely to alter any of the biological, physical or chemical parameters
                   as described in the narrative beyond the tolerance range of the organisms occupying the habitat,
                   the viability of that habitat has been significantly impaired or destroyed. Such action, therefore,
                   would be inconsistent with the above policy.

                   ExRlanation of Polic (Ref: Plates 10 and 11, Figure 2).

                   Navigation Light 91, a locally important Coastal Fish and Wildlife Habitat, has been proposed
                   for designation as a State Significant Coastal Fish and Wildlife Habitat. As one of a series of
                   St. Lawrence River navigation lights serving as significant nesting sites for Common terns (a
                   threatened species), Navigation Light 91 has been assessed as a valuable habitat. The protection,
                   preservation and management of this habitat is critical to the survival of Common terns in this
                   region.

                   Colonial bird species nesting on man-made structures in the St. Lawrence River are highly
                   vulnerable to disturbance from mid-April through July. Significant human activity (e.g., boat-
                   landing, fishing, or maintenance) on or around occupied sites could eliminate tern colonies from
                   the St. Lawrence Navigation Lights, and should be minimized during this period. Annual or
                   permanent posting of these structures should be provided to help protect the nesting bird species.
                   Habitat management activities, such as manipulation of surface substrates, control of avian
                   predation or competition, and establishment of additional nesting colonies in the vicinity, may
                   be desirable or necessary in the future to ensure the survival of common tern populations along
                   the St. Lawrence River. Other navigation structures in the river should be monitored or
                   enhanced for use by common terns, as part of an overall management program for these bird
                   populations.

                   Brandy Brook and Coles Creek both locally important Coastal Fish and Wildlife Habitats, have
                   been proposed for designation as Significant Coastal Fish and Wildlife Habitats. Brandy Brook
                   and Coles Creek represent two of the largest areas of sheltered shallow water habitat along the
                   St. Lawrence County shoreline. Productive littoral zones, freshwater inflows, extensive beds
                   of submergent and emergent vegetation, shoreline wetland areas and undeveloped adjacent
                   uplands provide areas assessed as significant for the abundance and diversity of fish and wildlife
                   species they support. Brandy Brook is a potential site for Walleye spawning. Coles Creek, with
                   water levels stabilized by a low dam, is one of the most productive fisheries habitats on the St.
                   Lawrence River.


                   Any activity that would substantially degrade water quality, increase turbidity or sedimentation,
                   reduce water levels, alter flows, or increase water level fluctuations in Brandy Brook or Coles
                   Creek could adversely affect a variety of fish and wildlife species. Discharges of sewage or
                   storm water runoff containing sediments or chemical pollutants (including fertilizers, herbicides,
                   or insecticides) may result in adverse impacts on fish and wildlife resources in these areas.
                   Spills of oil or other hazardous substances are a potentially serious threat to fish and wildlife in
                   both creeks, and every effort should be made to prevent such contamination. Elimination of
                   wetland habitats, or significant human disturbance of these areas, through dredging, filling,
                   construction of roads, waste disposal, or motorboat access development, could reduce their
                   values to fish and wildlife.       Channel modification in free-flowing segments above the
                   impoundment on Coles Creek would result in a direct loss of valuable habitat area. However,
                   habitat management activities, including water level management, may be designed to maintain
                   or enhance populations of certain fish and wildlife species. Any significant disturbances of
                   Brandy Brook would be especially detrimental during fish spawning and nursery periods (March-
                   July for most species). Barriers to fish migration in these creeks, whether physical or chemical,
                   could have significant effects on fish populations within the creeks as well as in Lake St.
                   Lawrence. Existing areas of natural vegetation bordering these creeks should be maintained for
                   their value as cover for wildlife, perch sites, and buffer zones. Efforts should be made to
                   reduce upstream disturbance by agricultural activities, especially grazing, through fencing and
                   restoration of riparian vegetation. Development of additional public access may be desirable to
                   increase compatible human uses of either creek, but must be designed to minimize disturbance
                   of sensitive fish and wildlife species that occur in the area.

                   Explanation of Policy. (Ref: Plates 10 and 11)

                   This remote and undeveloped area of the Town's waterfront is likely to have local significance
                   for recreation and tourism. Documentation for the variety and abundance of wildlife species
                   there is not presently available. Therefore, large scale clear cutting will be avoided and land
                   use activities will be generally limited in density and intensity.

                                          OR LETHAL EFFECTS ON THOSE RESOURCES.


                   Explanation of Policy, (Ref: Plates 4, 20, 11 and Figures 2, 3 & 4)

                   Hazardous wastes are unwanted by-products of manufacturing processes and are generally
                   characterized as being flammable, corrosive, reactive, or toxic. More specifically, hazardous
                   waste is defined in Environmental Conservation Law (S27-0901 (3) as "waste or combination
                   of wastes which because of its quantity, concentration, or physical, chemical or infectious
                   characteristics may: (1) cause, or significantly contribute to an increase in mortality or an
                   increase in serious irreversible illness; or (2) pose as substantial present or potential hazard to
                   human health or the environment when improperly treated, stored, transported, disposed or
                   otherwise managed." A list of hazardous wastes has been adopted by (6 NYCRR Part 371).

                   The handling (storage, transport, treatment and disposal) of the materials included on this list
                   is being strictly regulated in New York State to prevent their entry or introduction into the
                   environment, particularly into the State's air, land and waters. Such controls should effectively
                   minimize possible contamination of and bio-accumulation in the State's coastal fish and wildlife
                   resources at levels that cause mortality or create physiological and behavioral disorders.

                   Other pollutants are those conventional wastes, generated from point and non-point sources, and


                                                                  1111-16









                   not identified as hazardous wastes but controlled through other State laws. All public agencies
                   must consider the absence of sanitary sewers in the Town's waterfront and the extent of soils
                   poorly suited to the use of septic systems there as constraints to intensive development in the
                   vicinity of identified fish and wildlife habitats.

                   POLICY 9 EXPAND RECREATIONAL USE OF FISH AND WILDLIFE RESOURCES
                                  IN COASTAL AREAS BY INCREASING ACCESS TO EXISTING
                                  RESOURCES, SUPPLEMENTING EXISTING STOCKS, AND
                                  DEVELOPING NEW RESOURCES.


                   Explanation of Poligy. (Ref- Plates 10, 11 and Figures 2, 3 &4)

                   Recreational uses of coastal fish and wildlife resources include consumptive uses such as fishing
                   and hunting, and non-consumptive uses such as wildlife photography, bird watching and nature
                   study.

                   Any efforts to increase recreational use of these resources will be made in a manner which
                   ensures the protection of fish and wildlife resources in the waterfront area and which takes into
                   consideration other activities dependent on these resources. Also, such efforts must be made in
                   accordance with existing State law and in keeping with sound resource management
                   considerations. Such considerations include biology of the species, carrying capacity of the
                   resource, public demand, costs and available technology.

                   The Village and Town waterfront areas contain a variety of fish and wildlife habitats.
                   Recreational demand for fishing and, to lesser extents, hunting and trapping has increased in the
                   local waterfront area. To accommodate this demand, the LWRP will seek to expand fish and
                   wildlife resources (e.g., through stocking) and to increase the recreational use of such resources
                   (see Policies 19 through 22).

                   The following should be considered by all government agencies as they determine the
                   consistency of their proposed action with the above policy.

                   1 .     Consideration should be made as to whether such action will -impede existing or future
                           utilization of recreational fish and wildlife resources in the local waterfront area.


                   2.      Efforts to increase access to recreational fish and wildlife resources should not lead to
                           overutilization of that resource or cause impairment of the habitat. Sometimes such
                           impairment can be more subtle than actual physical damage to the habitat. For example,
                           increased human presence can deter animals from using the habitat area.

                   3.      The impacts of increasing access to recreational fish and wildlife resources should be
                           determined on a case-by-case basis, consulting the significant habitat narrative (see Policy
                           7) and/or conferring with a trained fish and wildlife biologist.



                                                                  IH-17









                  4.     Any public or private sector initiatives to supplement existing stocks (e.g., stocking a
                         stream with fish reared in a hatchery) or develop new resources (e.g., creating private
                         fee-hunting or fee-fishing facilities) must be done in accord with existing State law.

                  POLICY 10              FURTHER DEVELOP COMMERCIAL FINFISH, SHELLFTSH AND
                                         CRUSTACEAN RESOURCES IN THE COASTAL AREA BY
                                         ENCOURAGING THE CONSTRUCTION OF NEW, OR IMPROVE-
                                         MENT OF EXISTING. ON-SHORE COMMERCIAL FISHING

                                         AND EXPANDING AQUACULTURE, FACILITIES.

                  Not AWlicable. There are no significant commercial fishing activities in, or based out of, this
                  area of the St. Lawrence River. Commercial fishing activities, e.g., netting, rigging and on-
                  shore development of handling and processing facilities would undoubtedly prove
                  counterproductive to the strengthening of the sport fishery-based tourism in the local waterfront
                  area.

                  Flooding: Areas of special flood hazard in the Town and Village were identified and mapped
                  by the Federal Insurance Administration. With little (if any) exception, the floodprone lands in
                  the waterfront area of the two communities fall within lands held by NYPA for the "power
                  pool." No waterfront areas have been identified as having development which would be subject
                  to damages from flood hazards. If negotiations for greater use of NYPA lands should make
                  available land included in a designated Flood Hazard Area, provisions for preventing flood
                  damage and property losses would be made through the adoption of local floodplain regulations,
                  as well as by lease agreement and/or deed restriction.

                  Shoreline Erosion: The NYS Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) is not
                  expected to identify Coastal Erosion Hazard Areas (CEHA's) along Lake St. Lawrence.
                  However, active erosion and areas with high potential erodability have been identified as
                  occurring along numerous segments of Town and Village shorelines, especially west of the
                  mouth of Sucker Brook. Along Sucker Brook itself, the western bank has experienced
                  significant erosion just south of Lincoln Avenue.


                                                                IR-18









                   Most often, such erosion coincides with the more erodible soil types, usually on steeper slopes
                   with modest vegetative cover. Most areas of active erosion are located on either NYPA, OBPA
                   or State Park property. While few of these areas are likely to be experiencing erosion at a rate
                   of one (1) foot per year or more, the loss of shoreline is still a concern. As in the case of
                   flooding, negotia-tions with NYPA for additional development of shorelands via lease agreement,
                   deed restriction or local regulation must consider the degree of existing and potential shoreline
                   erosion .


                   Upland Erosion: Upland erosion is not a significant concern within the local waterfront area.
                   On the other hand, extensive disturbance of vegetative cover in the process of development is
                   likely to result in increased soil erosion. Therefore, public and private actions involving
                   development should be guided to avoid or minimize substantial disturbance of existing vegetative
                   cover to prevent erosion or, at a minimum, be required to employ suitable erosion and
                   sedimentation control techniques after disturbance has occurred.           Upland erosion and
                   sedimentation control will be particularly important for the protection of the Brandy Brook and
                   Coles Creek significant coastal fish and wildlife habitats (see Policy 7).

                   Explanation of Policy (Ref-. Plate 7)

                   The Town beach and the low erodible bluffs in the western part of the Town's waterfront are
                   natural protective features which help safeguard coastal lands and property from damage, as well
                   as reduce the danger to human life, resulting from flooding and erosion. Excavation of coastal
                   features, improperly designed structures, inadequate site planning, or other similar actions which
                   fail to recognize their fragile nature and high protective values, lead to the weakening or
                   destruction of those landforms. Activities or development in, or in proximity to, natural
                   protective features must ensure that all such adverse effects are minimized.

                    Explanation of P2 "c (Ref.- Plate 7)

                    Erosion protection structures are widely used throughout the State's coastal area. However,
                    because of improper design, construction and maintenance stand-ards, many fail to give the
                    protection which they are presumed to provide. As a result, development is sited in areas where
                    it is subject to damage or loss due to erosion. This policy will help ensure the reduction of such
                    damage or loss.

                    Proper design, construction and maintenance of shoreline protection structures will also prolong
                    their utility and benefits when resistance to wave and ice action is included as a design
                    parameter. This policy will thus assist in slowing the rate of deterioration of shoreline structures
                    and in avoiding disruptions or losses of public access to Lake St. Lawrence by increasing the
                    durability of such structures. Government agencies must consider the risk that wave and ice
                    action impose on either public or private capital investment in shoreline structures, especially
                    where water depth, current or other limiting site conditions require more costly design,
                    construction and maintenance practices.

                                          THAT THERE WILL BE NO MEASURABLE INCREASE IN
                                          EROSION OR FLOODING AT THE SITE OF SUCH ACTIVITEES

                    EUlanation of Policy. (Ref- Plate 7)

                    Erosion and flooding are processes which occur naturally. However, public or private actions
                    can increase the severity and adverse effects of those processes, causing damage to, or loss of
                    property, and endangering human lives. Those actions include: the use of erosion protection


                                                                   111-20









                   structures such as groins, or the use of impermeable docks which block the littoral transport of
                   sediment to adjacent shorelands, thus increasing their rate of recession; the failure to observe
                   proper drainage or land restoration practices, thereby causing run-off and the erosion and
                   weakening of shorelands; and the placing of structures in identified floodways so that the base
                   flood level is increased causing damage in otherwise hazard-free areas.

                                         CAUSE AN INCREASE IN EROSION OF SUCH LAND.


                   Exp-lanation of Policy. (Ref. Plate 7)

                   Coastal processes, including the movement of beach materials by water, and any mining,
                   excavation or dredging in nearshore or offshore waters which changes the supply and net flow
                   of such materials can deprive shorelands of their natural regenerative powers. Such mining,
                   excavation and dredging should be accomplished in a manner so as not to cause a reduction of
                   supply, and thus an increase of erosion, to such shorelands.

                   Explanation of Policy, (Ref- Plate 7)

                   Public funds are used for a variety of purposes on the State's shorelines. This policy recognizes
                   the public need for the protection of human life a'nd existing investment in development or new
                   development which requires a location in proximity to the coastal area or in adjacent waters to
                   be able to function. However, it also recognizes the adverse impacts of such activities and
                   development on the rate of erosion and on natural protective features and requires that careful
                   analysis be made of such benefits and long-term costs prior to expending public funds.

                   Wind driven wave action and ice movement represent destructive forces which cause
                   considerable shore- and long-term damages to shoreline structures.           Village and Town
                   investment in shoreline structures exposed to these forces is generally unwise unless sufficient
                   capital is expended to ensure such structures have adequate strength and durability. Measures
                   to diminish the severity of wave action or ice movement may be needed to protect life, limb or
                   property. However, Village and Town investment in measures to protect properties must, as
                   in the construction of shoreline structures in more exposed areas, weigh the economic benefits
                   accruing to these communities and their waterfront area, in view of public costs.

                   POLICY 17              WHENEVER POSSIBLE, USE NONSTRUCTURAL MEASURES TO
                                          NIPMAIZE DAMAGE TO NATURAL RESOURCES AND

                   EUlanation of Poligy.         (Ref. Plate 7)

                   This policy recognizes both the potential adverse impacts of flooding and erosion upon
                   development and upon natural protective features in the coastal area as well as the costs of
                   protection against those hazards which structural measures entail.

                          erodability, either NYPA's retention of control over the first 100 ft. inland from mean
                          high water level or the Town's required minimum setback from mean high water level
                          will ensure that buildings and structures are located so as to be safe from erosion
                          damage. In turn, such buildings and structures will not be likely to aggravate the rate
                          of erosion or the erodability in these areas. Furthermore, strengthening of the low
                          erodible bluff which typify these areas will be undertaken wherever practicable.
                          Revegetation, reshaping (to achieve an appropriate angle of repose) and installation of
                          drainage systems (to reduce runoff and internal seepage) are possible methods to
                          strengthen the bluffs.

                   2.     Within portions of the waterfront identified as flood hazard areas, the 100 ft. retained by
                          NYPA or required as setback by the Town will largely avoid the risk of or damage from
                          flooding. Where flood hazard area is located further inland, floodproofing and elevation
                          above flood level will protect non-residential and residential structures, respectively.

                   This policy shall apply to the planning, siting and design of proposed activities and development,
                   including measures to protect existing activities and development. To ascertain consistency with
                   the policy, it must be determined if any one, or a combination of, non-structural measures would
                   afford the degree of protection appropriate both to the character and purpose of the activity or
                   development, and to the hazard. If non-structural measures are determined to offer sufficient
                   protection, then consistency with the policy would require the use of such measures, whenever
                   possible.

                   In determining whether or not non-structural measures to protect against erosion or flooding will
                   afford the degree of protection appropriate, an analysis, and if necessary, other materials such
                   a plans or sketches of the activity or development, of the site and of the alternative protection
                   measures should be prepared to allow an assessment to be made.

                                                   NATURAL RESOURCES OF THE LOCAL WATERFRONT
                                                   AREA.

                    Explanation of Policy,

                    Proposed major actions may be undertaken in the coastal area if they will not significantly impair
                    valuable coastal waters and resources, thus frustrating the achievement of the purposes of the
                    safeguards which the State and the Village and Town have established to protect those waters
                    and resources. Proposed actions must take into account the economic, social, and environmental
                    interests of the State, the Village and Town and their citizens in such matters that could affect
                    natural resources, water levels and flows, shoreline damage, and recreation.

                    Village and Town economic interests will depend heavily on the sale or lease and subsequent
                    development of underutilized public lands within the local waterfront area.                   Tourism
                    development (in both communities) and capital investment for residential in-fifl and commercial
                    revitalization (in the Village) are closely tied to the future disposition of such lands. Agricultural
                    activity is also linked to these lands, but inversely. Intensive development in close proximity
                    to viable farmland could deter agricultural uses and lessen its economic importance. Therefore,
                    proposed major actions in the local waterfront area must recognize the local importance of these
                    various economic activities and support them whenever feasible. As a minimum, proposed
                    major actions should not hinder locally important economic activities unnecessarily.

                    The social interests of the Village and Town rest largely upon the community and cultural
                    resources in the local waterfront area and the manner in which such resources contribute to
                    coastal character, sense of place and quality of life. Protection and enhancement of community
                    and cultural resources, therefore, must be carefully considered when major actions are proposed.
                    Such actions should benefit or, at a minimum, not detract from these resources or their
                    contribution to local social interests.




                                                                    111-24









                    Village and Town environmental interests focus on the protection of valuable and sensitive
                    natural resources and their beneficial use in relation to economic and social interests for the local
                    waterfront area. The natural resources support the local economy -- primarily agriculture and
                    tourism -- and contribute to community character, sense of place and quality of life. Proposed
                    major actions, therefore, must consider the local environmental interests in terms of the balance
                    to be maintained between the natural and built environments of the waterfront. Where such
                    actions would be likely to disturb this balance, they should not be Undertaken or, as a minimum,
                    be modified so as to minimize the disturbance.

                    POLICY 19              PROTECT, MAINTAIN AND INCREASE THE LEVELS AND
                                           TYPES OF ACCESS TO PUBLIC WATER-RELATED
                                           RECREATION RESOURCES AND FACILITIES SO THAT THESE
                                           RESOURCES AND FACILITIES MAY BE FULLY UTILIZED BY
                                           ALL THE PUBLIC IN ACCORDANCE WITH REASONABLY
                                           ANTICI]PATED PUBLIC RECREATION NEEDS AND THE
                                           PROTECTION OF HISTORIC AND NATURAL RESOURCES. IN
                                           PROVIDING SUCH ACCESS, PRIORITY SHALL BE GIVEN TO
                                           PUBLIC BEACHES, BOATING FACILITIES, FISHING AREAS
                                           AND WATERFRONT PARKS.


                    POLICY 19A                     ENCOURAGE THE DEVELOPMENT OF COMMERCIAL

                                                   THE SALE AND/OR LEASE OF PUBLIC LANDS WHERE
                                                   SUCH LANDS ARE SURPLUS, UNDERUTILIZED AND
                                                   WELL NOT BE NEEDED TO MEET DEMANDS FOR
                                                   PUBLIC ACCESS AND RECREATION USE FOR THE
                                                   FORESEEABLE FUTURE.


                    EVIanation of Policy. (Ref- Plates 16 and 18)

                    This policy calls for achieving balance among the following factors: the level of access to a
                    resource or facility, the capacity of a resource or facility, and the protection of natural resources.
                    Because the imbalance among these factors is often due to access-related problems, priority will
                    be given to improving physical access to existing and potential coastal recreation sites. This
                    program will encourage mixed use areas and multiple use of facilities to improve access.

                    New York Power Authority (NYPA) ownership of nearly all shorelands in the local waterfront
                    area has provided only limited public access. The sale and development of those portions
                    deemed to be surplus will necessarily reduce the total area wherein public access is possible.
                    Nevertheless, NYPA's retention of the shorelands closest to the water will assure that some
                    additional public access could be provided to meet future needs. In the process of disposing of


                                                                    111-25









                    surplus, underutilized NYPA lands, public access easements reservations to the shoreline should
                    be incorporated prior to the conveyance of lands to private development. Also, the layout of
                    such developments should protect public access by minimizing the potential for conflicts between
                    adjacent public and private land uses. Additional public access on lands retained by NYPA
                    would be appropriate.

                    Highest priority shall be given to the protection and improvement of access to existing public
                    sites offering water-related recreation activities,       Coles Creek State Park, Whittaker Park
                    (including leased areas along the northerly side of St. Lawrence Avenue) and the Town Beach.
                    The next highest priority shall be given to the protection and improvement of access to sites for
                    potential public water-related recreation activities: the eastern portion of Leishman Point, the
                    eastern tip of Ogden Island, and near the Iroquois Dam. Potential sites for commercial water-
                    based recreation activity shall be given the third highest priority in providing public access. The
                    western side of Leishman Point, the mouth of Sucker Brook and the eastern side of Clark Point
                    are examples where public access could benefit commercial marina development.

                    Measures taken to increase public access should enhance or, at a minimum, be consistent with
                    local efforts to revitalize deteriorated and/or underutilized areas, facilitate water-dependent uses,
                    protect historic resources and increase the recreational use of the river and its fish and wildlife
                    resources.


                    All government agencies must give consideration to the existing and potential public access sites
                    in the Village and Town when considering proposed development actions. They should, to the
                    extent permitted by other coastal policies, encourage new or improved vehicular, pedestrian and
                    waterborne access to the water while ensuring that their actions do not jeopardize present levels
                    of access.


                    The following guidelines will be used in determining the consistency of a proposed action with
                    this policy:

                    1.      The existing access from adjacent or proximate public lands or facilities to public water-
                            related recreation resources and facilities shall not be reduced, nor shall the possibility
                            of increasing access in the future from adjacent or proximate public lands or facilities to
                            public water-related recreation resources and facilities be eliminated, unless in the latter
                            case, estimates of future use of these resources and facilities are too low to justify
                            maintaining or providing increased public access.

                    2.      Any proposed project to increase public access to public water-
                            related recreation resources and facilities shall be analyzed according to the following
                            factors.


                            a)       The level of access to be provided should be in accord with estimated public use.
                                     If not, the proposed level of access to be provided shall be deemed inconsistent
                                     with the policy.


                                                                      111-26









                             b)      The level of access to be provided shall not cause a degree of use which would
                                     exceed the physical capability of the resource or facility. If this were determined
                                     to be the case, the proposed level of access to be provided shall be deemed
                                     inconsistent with the policy.

                    3.       The State, Town and Village will not undertake or fund any project which increases
                             access to a public water-related recreation resource or facility that is not open to all
                             members of the public.

                             The following is an explanation of the terms used in the above guidelines:

                             a)      Access - the ability and right of the public to reach and use public coastal lands,
                                     waters and/or water-related recreation resources or facilities.


                             b)      Public water-related recreation resources or facilities - all public lands or facilities
                                     that are suitable for passive or active recreation that require either water or a
                                     waterfront location or are enhanced by a waterfront location.

                             c)      Public lands or facilities - lands or facilities held by State or local government in
                                     fee-simple or less-then-fee-simple ownership and to which the public has access
                                     or could have access, including underwater lands and the foreshore.

                             d)      A reduction in the existing level of public access - includes but is not limited to
                                     the following:

                                     (1)     The number of parking spaces at a public water-related recreation resource
                                             or facilityis significantly reduced.

                                     (2)     Pedestrian access is diminished or eliminated because of hazardous
                                             crossing required at new or altered transportation facilities, eleictric power
                                             transmission lines, or similar linear facilities.

                                     (3)     Pedestrian access is diminished or blocked completely by public or private
                                             development.

                             e)      An elimination of the possibility of increasing public access in the future includes,
                                     but is not limited to the following:

                                     (1)     Construction/modification of public facilities which
                                             physically prevent the provision, except at great expense, of convenient
                                             public access to public water-related recreation resources and facilities or
                                             to public coastal lands or waters.

                                     (2)     Sale, lease, or other conveyance of public property that


                                                                      M-27









                                         could provide public access to a public water-related recreation resource
                                         or facility or to public coastal lands and/or waters, except where such
                                         sale, lease or other conveyance entails offsetting gains in public access.

                                 (3)     Construction of private facilities which physically prevent
                                         the provision of convenient public access to a public water-related
                                         recreation resource or facility or to public coastal lands and/or waters
                                         from public lands and facilities.

                   POLICY 20             ACCESS TO THE PUBLICLY OWNED FORESHORE AND TO
                                         LANDS IMMEDIATELY ADJACENT TO THE FORESHORE OR
                                         THE WATER'S EDGE THAT ARE PUBLICLY OWNED SHALL BE
                                         PROVIDED, AND IT SHOULD BE PROVIDED IN A MANNER
                                         COMPATIBLE WITH ADJOINING USES. SUCH LANDS SHALL
                                         BE RETAINED IN PUBLIC OWNERSHIP.

                   As noted under Policy 19, the New York Power Authority will retain ownership of the
                   immediate shoreline. While such publicly-owned lands referenced in the policy shall be retained
                   in public ownership, traditional sales of easements on lands underwater to adjacent onshore
                   property owners are consistent with this policy, provided such easements do not substantially
                   interfere with continued public use of the public lands on which the easement is granted. Also,
                   public use of such publicly-owned underwater lands and lands immediately adjacent to the shore
                   shall be discouraged where such use would be inappropriate for reasons of public safety, military
                   security, or the protection of fragile coastal resources.

                   The following guidelines will be used in determining the consistency of a proposed action with
                   this policy:

                   1.     Existing access from adjacent or proximate public lands or facilities to existing public
                          coastal lands and/or waters shall not be reduced, nor shall the possibility of increasing
                          access in the future from adjacent or nearby public lands or facilities to public coastal
                          lands and/or waters be eliminated, unless such actions are demonstrated to be of
                          overriding regional or statewide public benefit, or in the latter case, estimates of future
                          use of these lands and waters are too low to justify maintaining or providing increased
                          access.


                          The following is an explanation of the terms used in the above guideline:

                          a.      (See definitions under first policy of "access", and "public lands or facilities").

                          b.      A reduction in the existing level of public access - includes but is not limited to
                                  the following:


                                                                 111-28









                                  (1)    Pedestrian access is diminished or eliminated because of hazardous
                                         crossings required at new or altered transportation facilities, electric
                                         power transmission lines, or similar linear facilities.

                                  (2)    Pedestrian access is diminished or blocked completely by public or private
                                         development.

                          C.      An elimination of the possibility of increasing public access in the future -
                                  includes but is not limited to, the following:

                                  (1)    Construction of public facilities which physically prevent
                                         the provision, except at great expense, of convenient public access to
                                         public water-related recreation resources and facilities.

                                  (2)    Sale, lease, or other conveyance of public lands could provide public
                                         access to public coastal lands and/or waters.

                                  (3)    Construction of private facilities which physically prevent the provision
                                         of convenient public access to public coastal lands and/or waters from
                                         public lands and facilities.

                  2.      The existing level of public access within public coastal lands or waters shall not be
                          reduced or eliminated.


                          a.      A reduction in the existing level of public access - includes but is not limited to
                                  the following:

                                  (1)    Access is reduced or eliminated because of hazardous crossings required
                                         at new or altered transportation facilities, electric power transmission
                                         lines, or similar linear facilities.

                                  (2)    Access is reduced or blocked completely by any public developments.

                  3.      Public access from the nearest public roadway to the shoreline and along the coast shall
                          be provided by new land use or development, except where (a) it is inconsistent with
                          public safety, military security, or the protection of identified fragile coastal resources;
                          (b) adequate access exists within one-half mile; or (c) agriculture would be adversely
                          affected. Such access shall not be required to be open to public use until a public agency
                          or private association agrees to accept responsibility for maintenance and liability of the
                          accessway.

                  4.      The State will not undertake or fund any project which increases access to a water-related
                          resource or facility that is not open to all members of the public.



                                                                 HI-29








                    5.     In their plans and programs for increasing public access, State agencies shall give priority
                           in the following order to projects located: within the boundaries of the Federal-Aid
                           Metropolitan Urban Area and served by public transportation; within the boundaries of
                           the Federal-Aid Metropolitan Urban Area but not served by public transportation;
                           outside the defined Urban Area boundary and served by public transportation; and
                           outside the defined Urban Area boundary but not served by public transportation.

                    6.     Proposals for increased public access to. coastal lands and waters shall be analyzed
                           according to the following factors:

                           a.      The level of access to be provided should be in accord with estimated public use.
                                   If not, the proposed level of access to be provided shall be deemed inconsistent
                                   with the policy.

                           b.      The level of access to be provided shall not cause a degree of use which would
                                   exceed the physical capability of the resource. If this were determined to be the
                                   case, the proposed level of access to be provided shall be deemed inconsistent
                                   with the policy.

                    POLICY 21             WATER-DEPENDENT AND WATER-ENHANCED RECREATION
                                          SHALL BE ENCOURAGED AND FACILITATED AND SHALL BE
                                          GIVEN PRIORITY OVER NONWATER RELATED USES ALONG
                                          THE COAST, PROVIDED IT IS CONSISTENT WITH THE
                                          PRESERVATION AND ENHANCEMENT OF OTHER COASTAL
                                          RESOURCES AND TAKES INTO ACCOUNT DEMAND FOR SUCH
                                          FACILITIES. IN FACILITATING SUCH ACTIVITIES, PRIORITY
                                          SHALL BE GIVEN TO AREAS WHERE ACCESS TO THE
                                          .RECREATION OPPORTUNITIES OF THE COAST CAN BE
                                          PROVIDED BY NEW OR EXISTING PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION
                                          SERVICES AND TO THOSE AREAS WHERE THE USE OF THE
                                          SHORE IS SEVERELY RESTRICTED BY EXISTING
                                          DEVELOPMENT.

                                                  AND RECREATION SHALL BE ENCOURAGED AND
                                                  FACILITATED TO THE EXTENT CONSISTENT WITH
                                                  OTHER APPLICABLE COASTAL POLICIES INCLUDED IN
                                                  THE LOCAL WATERFRONT REVITALIZATION
                                                  PROGRAM FOR THE BENEFICIAL USE AND
                                                  PROTECTION OF COASTAL RESOURCES.



                    Explanation of Policy, (Ref. Plates 26 and 18)


                                                                  1111-30









                    Water-related recreation includes such obviously water-dependent activities as boating,
                    swimming, and fishing as well as certain activities which are enhanced by a coastal location and
                    increase the general public's access to the coast such as pedestrian and bicycle trails, picnic
                    areas, scenic overlooks and passive recreation areas that take advantage of coastal scenery.

                    Provided the development of water-related recreation is consistent with the preservation and
                    enhancement of such important coastal resources as fish and wildlife habitats, aesthetically
                    significant areas, historic and cultural resources, agriculture and significant mineral and fossil
                    deposits, and provided demand exists, water-related recreation development is to be increased
                    and such uses shall have a higher priority than any non-coastal dependent uses, including non-
                    water-related recreation uses. In addition, water-dependent recreation uses shall have a higher
                    priority over water enhanced recreation uses. Determining a priority among coastal dependent
                    uses will require a case by case analysis.

                    The siting or design of new public development in a manner which would result in a barrier to
                    the recreational use of a major portion of a community's shore should be avoided as much as
                    practicable.

                    Among the types of water-dependent recreation, provision of adequate boating services to meet
                    future demand is to be encouraged by this program. The siting of boating facilities must be
                    consistent with preservation and enhancement of other coastal resources and with their capacity
                    to accommodate demand. Lease agreement with the New York Power Authority would be a
                    means for encouraging private marina development. Boating facilities will, as appropriate,
                    include parking, park-like surroundings, toilet facilities, and pumpout facilities.

                    Water-related off-road recreational vehicle use is an acceptable activity, provided no adverse
                    environmental impacts occur. Where adverse environmental impact will occur, mitigating
                    measures will be implemented, where practicable to minimize such adverse impacts. If
                    acceptable mitigation is not practicable, prohibition of the use by off-road recreational vehicles
                    will be posted and enforced.

                    POLICY 22             DEVELOPMENT, WHEN LOCATED ADJACENT TO THE SHORE,
                                          SHALL PROVIDE FOR WATER-RELATED RECREATION9 AS A
                                          MULTIPLE USE, WHENEVER SUCH RECREATIONAL USE IS
                                          APPROPRIATE IN LIGHT OF REASONABLY ANTICI]PATED
                                          DEMAND FOR SUCH ACTIVITIES AND THE PRIMARY
                                          PURPOSE OF THE DEVELOPMENT.


                    Explanation of Policy. (Ref. Plates 16 and 18)

                    Many developments present practical opportunities for providing recreation facilities as an
                    additional use of the site or facility. Therefore, whenever developments are located adjacent to
                    the shore, they should, to the fullest extent permitted by existing law, provide for some form
                    of water-related recreation use unless there are compelling reasons why any form of such


                                                                 111-31









                   recreation would not be compatible with the development, or a reasonable demand for public use
                   cannot be foreseen.


                   The types of development which can generally provide water-related recreation as a multiple use
                   include but are not limited to:


                          parks
                          highways
                          power plants
                          utility transmission rights of way
                          sewage treatment facilities
                          mental health facilities (FN 13)
                          hospitals (FN 13)
                          prisons (FN 13)
                          schools, universities (FN 13)
                          military facilities (FN 13)
                          nature preserves (FN 13)
                          large residential subdivisions (50 units)
                          shopping centers
                          office buildings

                   Prior to taking action relative to any development, government agencies should consult with the
                   Village and Town to determine appropriate recreation uses. The agency should provide the
                   Village and Town with the opportunity to participate in project planning. Appropriate recreation
                   uses which do not require any substantial additional construction shall be provided at the expense
                   of the project sponsor provided the cost does not exceed 2% of total project cost.               In
                   determining whether compelling reasons exist which would make inadvisable recreation as a
                   multiple use, safety considerations should reflect a recognition that some risk is acceptable in
                   the use of recreational facilities.


                   POLICY 23              PROTECT, ENHANCE AND RESTORE STRUCTURES,
                                          DISTRICTS, AREAS OR SITES THAT ARE OF SIGNIFICANCE IN
                                          THE HISTORY, ARCHITECTURE, ARCHAEOLOGY OR
                                          CULTURE OF THE STATE, ITS COMMUNITIES OR THE
                                          NATION.


                   Ex2lanation of Pg "c (Ref: and Plate 19)

                   Among the most valuable of the State's man-made resources are those structures or areas which
                   are of historic, archaeological, or cultural significance. The protection of these structures must
                   involve a recognition of their importance by all agencies and the ability to identify and describe
                   them. Protection must include concern not just with specific sites but with areas of significance,
                   and with the area around specific sites.



                                                                 HI-32









                   The policy is not to be construed as a passive mandate but must include active efforts when
                   appropriate to restore or revitalize through adaptive reuse. While the program is concerned with
                   the preservation of all such resources within the coastal boundary, it will actively promote the
                   preservation of historic and cultural resources which have a coastal relationship.

                   All practicable means to protect structures, districts, areas or sites that are of significance in the
                   history, architecture, archaeology or culture of the State, its communities or the Nation shall be
                   deemed to include the consideration and adoption of any techniques, measures, or controls to
                   prevent a significant adverse change to such significant structures, districts, areas or sites. A
                   significant adverse change includes but is not limited to:

                   1.      Alteration of or addition to one or more of the architectural, structural ornamental or
                           functional features of a building, structure, or site that is a recognized historic, cultural,
                           or archaeological resource, or component thereof.            Such features are defined as
                           encompassing the style and general arrangement of the exterior of a structure and any
                           original or historically significant interior features including type, color and texture of
                           building materials; entryways and doors; fenestration; lighting fixtures; roofing,
                           sculpture and carving; steps; rails; fencing; windows; vents and other openings;
                           grillwork;    signs; canopies; and other appurtenant fixtures and, in addition, all
                           buildings, structures, outbuildings, walks, fences, steps, topographical features, earth-
                           moving, paving and signs located on the designated resource property. (To the extent
                           they are relevant, the Secretary of the Interior's "Standards for Rehabilitation and
                           Guidelines for Rehabilitating Historic Buildings" shall be adhered to.)

                   2.      Demolition or removal in full or part of a building, structure, or earthworks that is a
                           recognized historic, cultural, or archaeological resource or component thereof, to include
                           all those features described in 1, above plus any other appurtenant fixture associated with
                           a building structure or earthwork.

                   3.      All proposed actions within 500 feet of the perimeter of the property boundary of the
                           historic, architectural, cultural, or archaeological resource and all actions within an
                           historic district that would be incompatible with the objective of preserving the quality
                           and integrity of the resource. Primary considerations to be used in making judgement
                           about compatibility should focus on the visual and locational relationship between the
                           proposed action and the special character of the historic, cultural, or archaeological
                           resource. Compatibility between the proposed action and the resource means that the
                           general appearance of the resource should be reflected in the architectural style, design
                           material, scale, proportion, composition, mass, line, color, texture, detail, setback,
                           landscaping and related items of the proposed actions. With historic districts this would
                           include infrastructure improvements or changes, such as street and sidewalk paving,
                           street furniture and lighting.

                   This policy shall not be construed to prevent the construction, reconstruction, alteration, or
                   demolition of any buildings, structure, earthwork, or component thereof of a recognized historic,


                                                                   M-33









                   cultural or archaeological resource which has been officially certified as being imminently
                   dangerous to life or public health. Nor shall the policy be construed to prevent the ordinary
                   maintenance, repair, or proper restoration according to the U.S. Department of Interior's
                   "Standards for Rehabilitation and Guidelines for Rehabilitating Historic Buildings" of any
                   building, structure, site or earthwork, or component thereof of a recognized historic, cultural
                   or archaeological resource which does not involve a significant adverse change to the resource,
                   as defined above.


                   Nine individual structures and one row of seven structures are recognized as being highly
                   significant to the local community. Such historic resources will warrant the maximum protection
                   which can be practically afforded in implementing these policies. The numerous remaining
                   historic structures described in Section II have less significance individually. Collectively,
                   however, these other historic resources warrant attention. Such resources embody much of the
                   local cultural heritage and contribute importantly to present day community character. All
                   government agencies should avoid, to the maximum extent practicable, undertaking direct actions
                   which would jeopardize these locally significant historic resources. In addition, public education
                   and local recognition should encourage private owners to restore, rehabilitate and preserve these
                   structures and/or sites, preferably along the guidelines set forth above for highly significant
                   historic resources.


                   Given the existence of zones of archeological sensitivity and the possibility of additional
                   historically significant structures within the waterfront area (ref. Plate 19), developers and
                   development review agencies must contact the New York State Historic Preservation Office to
                   determine appropriate protective measures to be incorporated in the development process at these
                   sites.

                   ExRlanation of PgHM (Ref- and Plate 12)

                   When considering a proposed action, which would not affect a scenic resource of statewide
                   significance, agencies shall undertake to ensure that the action would be undertaken so as to
                   protect and enhance the overall scenic quality of the coastal area. Activities which could impair
                   or further degrade scenic quality are the same as those cited under the previous policy, i.e.,
                   modification of natural landforms, removal of vegetation, etc. However, the effects of these
                   activities would not be considered as serious for the general coastal area as for significant scenic
                   areas.


                   The following siting and facility-related guidelines to be used to achieve this policy, recognizing
                   that each development situation is unique and that the guidelines must be applied accordingly,
                   include:



                   1.      Siting structures and other development such as highways, power lines, and signs, back
                           from shorelines or in other inconspicuous locations to maintain the attractive quality of
                           the shoreline and to retain views to and from the shore;


                                                                  IH-35









                   2.      Clustering or orienting structures to retain views, save open space and provide visual
                           organization to a development;

                   3.      Incorporating sound, existing structures (especially historic buildings) into the overall
                           development scheme;

                   4.      Removing deteriorated and/or degrading elements;

                   5.      Maintaining or restoring the original landform, except when changes screen unattractive
                           elements and/or add appropriate interest;

                   6.      Maintaining or adding vegetation to provide interest, encourage the presence of wildlife,
                           blend structures into the site, and obscure unattractive elements, except when selective
                           clearing removes unsightly, diseased or hazardous vegetation and when selective clearing
                           enhances views of coastal waters;

                   7.      Using appropriate materials, in addition to vegetation, to screen unattractive elements;

                   8.      Using appropriate scales, forms and materials to ensure that building        s and other
                           structures are compatible with and add interest to the landscape.

                   Given the LWRP's application to a narrow strip of land, implementing a policy to promote the
                   agricultural use of land must, to be practical, concentrate on controlling the replacement of
                   agricultural land uses with non-agricultural land use as the result of some public action. Other
                   factors, such as markets, price supports, and regulations, which influence the viability in a given
                   area, can only be addressed on a statewide or national basis.

                   Within the local waterfront area, the most extensive areas of agricultural land are found within
                   an existing agricultural district. Some agricultural activity occurs on land leased from the New
                   York Power Authority (NYPA). With the sale of surplus NYPA lands for development,
                   agricultural lands wiU face new pressure from competing land uses.

                   The Program policy requires a concern for the loss of any important agricultural land.
                   However, the primary concern must be with the loss of agricultural land when that loss would
                   have a significant effect on an agricultural area's ability to continue to exist, to prosper, and
                   even to expand. A series of determinations are necessary to establish whether a public action
                   is consistent with the conservation and protection of agricultural lands or whether it is likely to
                   be harmful to the health of an agricultural area. In brief these determinations are as follows:
                   If it would not result, either directly or indirectly, in the loss of important agricultural lands,
                   then the action is consistent with the policy on agriculture. If it is determined that the action
                   would result in a loss of important agricultural lands but that loss would not have an adverse
                   effect on the viability of agriculture in the surrounding area, then the action may also be
                   consistent with the agriculture policy. However, in that case the action must be undertaken in
                   a manner that would minimize the loss of important farmland. If the action is determined to
                   result in a significant loss of important agricultural land, that is the loss is to degree sufficient
                   to adversely affect surrounding agriculture's viability, - its ability to continue to exist, to
                   prosper, and even to expand - then the action is not consistent with this agriculture policy.

                   The following guidelines define more fully what must be considered in making the above
                   determinations.


                   A.      A public action would be likely to significantly impair the viability of an agricultural
                           area if it would:


                   1.      consume more than 10 percent of an active farm, consume a total of 100 acres or more
                           of important agricultural land, or divide an active farm into two or more parts, thus
                           impeding efficient farm operation.

                   2.      result in environmental changes which may reduce the productivity or adversely effect
                           the quality of the product of important agricultural lands.

                   3.      create real estate markef conditions favorable to the conversion of large areas of
                           important agricultural land to non-agricultural uses. Such conditions may be created by:

                           a.      public water or sewer facilities to serve non-farm structures


                                                                   M-37









                           b.      transportation improvements, except for maintenance of, and safety improvements
                                   to, existing facilities, that serve non-
                                          farm or non-farm related development

                           C.      major non-agribusiness commercial development adjacent to identified agricultural
                                   lands


                           d.      major public institutions

                           e.      residential uses other than farm dwellings

                           L       any change in land use regulations applying to agricultural land which would
                                   encourage or allow uses incompatible with the agricultural use of the land.

                   B.      The following types of facilities and activities should not be construed as having
                           adverse effects on the preservation of agricultural land;

                   1       Farm dwellings, bams, silos, and other accessory uses and structures incidental to
                           agricultural production or necessary for farm family supplemental income,

                   2.      Agribusiness development which includes the entire structure of local support services
                           and commercial enterprises necessary to maintain an agricultural operation, e.g., milk
                           hauler, grain dealer, farm machinery dealer, veterinarian, food processing plants,

                   C.      In determining whether an action that would result in the loss of farm-
                           land is of overriding regional or statewide benefit, the following factors should be
                           considered:


                   I .     For an action to be considered overriding, it must be shown to provide significantly
                           greater benefits to the region or state than are provided by the affected agricultural area
                           (not merely the land directly affected by the action). In determining the benefits of the
                           affected agricultural to the region, or state, consideration must be given to its social and
                           cultural value, its economic availability, its environmental benefits, its existing and
                           potential contribution to food or fiber production in the state and any state food policy,
                           as well as its direct economic benefits.


                           a.      An agricultural area is an area predominantly in farming and in which the farms
                                   produce similar products and/or rely on the same agribusiness support services
                                   and are to a significant degree economically inter-dependent. At a minimum, this
                                   area should consist of at least 500 acres of important agriculture land. For the
                                   purpose of analyzing impacts of any action on agriculture, the boundary of such
                                   area need not be restricted to land within the coastal boundary.
                                   If the affected agricultural district then, at a minimum, the agricultural area
                                   should include the entire agricultural district.


                                                                  111-38









                                  b.         In determining the benefits of an agricultural area, its relationship to agricultural
                                             lands outside the area should also be considered.


                                  C.         The estimate of the economic viability of the affected agricultural area should be
                                             based on an assessment of.


                                             (i)       soil resources, topography, conditions of climate and water resources;

                                             (vi)      patterns of farm ownership for their effect on farm efficiency and the
                                                       likelihood that farms will remain in use.


                                  d.         The estimate of the social and cultural value of farming in the area should be
                                             based on an analysis of:

                                             (i)       the history of farming in the area;

                                             (ii)      the length of time farms have remained in one family;

                                             (iii)     the degree to which farmers in the area share a cultural or ethnic heritage;

                                             (iv)      the extent to which products are sold and consumed locally;
                                             (v)       the degree to which a specific crop(s) has become identified with a
                                                       community.

                                  e.         An estimate of the environmental benefits of the affected agriculture should be
                                             based on analysis of.

                                             (i)       the extent to which the affected agriculture as currently practiced provides
                                                       a habitat or food for wildlife;

                                             (ii)      the extent to which a farm landscape adds to the visual
                                                       quality of an area;


                                                                                      IJI-39









                                  (iii)  any regional or local open space plans, and degree to
                                         which the open space contributes to air quality;

                                  (iv)   the degree to which the affected agriculture does, or could, contribute to
                                         the establishment of a clear edge between rural and urban development.

                  D.       Whenever a proposed action is determined to have an insignificant adverse effect on
                           important agricultural land or whenever it is permitted to substantially hinder the
                           achievement of the policy according to DOS regulations, Part 600, or as a result of
                           the findings of an EIS, then the required innininnization should he undertaken in the
                           following manner:

                   I .     The proposed action shall, to the extent practicable, be sited on any land not identified
                           as important agricultural, or, it must be sited on important agricultural land, sited to
                           avoid classes of agricultural land according to the following priority:

                           a.     prime farmland in active farming

                           b.     farmland of statewide importance in active farming

                           C.     active farmland identified as having high economic viability

                           d.     prime farmland not being farmed

                           e.     farmland of statewide importance not being farmed

                   2.      To the extent practicable, agricultural use of important agricultural land not directly
                           necessary for the operation of the proposed non-agricultural action should be provided
                           for through such means as lease arrangements with farmers, direct undertaldng of
                           agriculture, or sale of surplus land to farmers. Agricultural use of such land shall have
                           priority over any other proposed multiple use of the land.

                           To the extent practicable, development shall be guided away from areas of prime
                           farmland within the agricultural district and outside the district where such soils are
                           currently in active agricultural use. Where development does occur along NY Route 37
                           within such areas, shallow lot frontage development will be allowed in order to minimize
                           the loss of prime farmland.

                                         NEED FOR A SHOREFRONT LOCATION.


                   "x lanation of Poligy, (Ref- and Plate 16)

                   Beside the waters of the Lake St. Lawrence "power pool," there are no other major energy
                   resources in the local waterfront area. The recent proposal of the New York Power Authority
                   (NYPA) to sell off surplus shorelands, for private development will make the siting and
                   construction of new facilities for energy production unlikely, if not impossible.

                   On the other hand, facilities for transmitting hydroelectric power are possible by virtue of the
                   local waterfront -area's close proximity to the power project in Massena, and facilities for natural
                   gas transmission are currently proposed.

                   Articles VII and VM of the NYS Public Service Law require forecasts of energy needs and
                   establish the basis for determining the compatibility of transmission lines and steam generating
                   facilities with the environment and the necessity of a shorefront location. The policies derived
                   from the siting regulations under these articles are entirely consistent with the general coastal
                   zone policies derived from other laws, particularly the regulations promulgated pursuant to the
                   Waterfront Revitalization and Coastal Resources Act. That act is used for the purposes of
                   ensuring consistency with the Coastal Management Program.


                   POLICY 28              ICE MANAGEMENT PRACTICES SHALL NOT DAMAGE
                                          SIGNIFICANT FISH AND WILDLIFE AND THEIR HABITATS,

                                          INTERFERE WITII THE PRODUCTION OF HYDROELECTRIC
                                          POVVER.


                   Ealanation of Policy,

                   Prior to undertaking actions required for ice management, an assessment must be made of the
                   potential effects of such actions upon the production of hydroelectric power, fish and wildlife
                   and their habitats as identified in this program, flood levels and damage, rates of shoreline
                   erosion damage, and upon natural protective features.

                   Following such an examination, adequate methods of avoidance or mitigation of such potential
                   effects must be utilized if the proposed action is to be implemented.

                   Winter navigation along the St. Lawrence Seaway--as had been proposed in the past-- would
                   necessarily require ice management practices on Lake St. Lawrence. Such practices could
                   involve detrimental impacts on coastal resources in the local waterfront area which would make
                   this policy particularly applicable.


                                                                  IH-41

                   Not Applicable, As noted under Policy 27, the water resources of Lake St. Lawrence have
                   already been "developed" for hydro-electric power, and no other energy resources are known
                   to exist in or near the local waterfront area.

                                          WILL CONFORM TO STATE AND NATIONAL WATER QUALITY
                                          STANDARDS.


                   Explanation of Policy. (Ref. Plate 4)

                   Municipal, industrial and commercial discharges include not only "end-of-the-pipe" discharges
                   into surface and groundwater but also plant site runoff, leaching, spillages, sludge and other
                   waste disposal, and drainage from raw material storage sites. Also, the regulated industrial
                   discharges are both those which directly empty into receiving coastal waters and those which
                   pass through municipal treatment systems before reaching the State's waterways.

                   While current sewage treatment in the Village is adequate to protect its coastal waters, continued
                   maintenance and occasional upgrading of the system will be necessary to ensure that discharges
                   into Lake St. Lawrence do not threaten water quality. Repair, or replacement of sewer pipes
                   as they deteriorate with age will minimize future inflow and infiltration problems which can
                   exhaust or exceed capacity of the sewage treatment plant. Future concentration of development
                   in the Village--on Clark Point and as residential in-fill development--may necessitate future
                   expansion of treatment capacity.

                   The potential for resort and commercial recreation development on surplus shorelands of the
                   New York Power Authority makes this policy applicable to the Town's waterfront as well.

                  Expianation of Poligy. (Ref. Plate 4)

                  The State has classified its coastal and other waters in accordance with considerations of best
                  usage in the interest of the public and has adopted water quality standards for each class of
                  waters. These classifications and standards are reviewable at least every three years for possible
                  revision or amendment. Lmal Waterfront Revitalization programs and coastal management
                  policies shall be factored into the review process for coastal waters.           However, such
                  considerations shall not affect any water pollution control requirement established by the State
                  pursuant to the Federal Clean Water Act.

                  The State has identified certain stream segments as being either "water quality limiting' or
                  tieffluent limiting." Waters not meeting State standards and which would not be expected to
                  meet these standards even after applying "best practicable treatment" to effluent discharges are
                  classified as "water quality limiting." Those segments meeting standards or those expected to
                  meet them after application of "best practicable treatment" are classified as "effluent limiting,"
                  waste treatment beyond "best practicable treatment" would be required, and costs of applying
                  such additional treatment may be prohibitive for new development. The Village and Town have
                  reviewed the classification of waters within the local waterfront area and find them to be
                  generally consistent with the existing and proposed land and water uses put forth in this
                  program-


                  POLICY 32              ENCOURAGE THE USE OF ALTERNATIVE OR INNOVATIVE
                                         SANITARY WASTE SYSTIMS IN SMALL COMMUNITIES
                                         WEOERE THE COSTS OF CONVENTIONAL FACILITIES ARE
                                         UNREASONABLY HIGH, GIVEN THE SIZFE OF THE EXISTING
                                         TAX BASE OF THESE COMMUNITIES.


                  EUlanation of PoljU, (Ref: Plate 4)

                  Alternative systems include individual septic tanks and other subsurface disposal systems, dual
                  systems, small systems serving clusters of households or commercial users, and pressure or
                  vacuum sewers. These types of systems are often more cost effective in smaller less densely
                  populated areas and for which conventional facilities are too expensive.

                  Development in the Town's waterfront faces the absence of public sewers and soils with severe
                  limitations on the use of conventional septic systems. In many areas, alternative and innovative
                  on-site disposal systems may be necessary to adhere to NYS Department of Health standards in

                   Explanation of Policy, (Ref: Plate 4)

                   Best management practices include both structural and nonstructural methods of preventing or
                   mitigating pollution caused by the discharge of stormwater runoff and combined sewer
                   overflows. At present, structural approaches to controlling stormwater runoff (e.g., construction
                   of retention basins) and combined sewer overflows (e.g., replacement of combined system with
                   separate sanitary and stormwater collection systems) are not economically feasible. Proposed
                   amendments to the Clean Water Act, however, will authorize funding to address combined sewer
                   overflows in areas where they create severe water quality impacts. Until funding for such
                   projects becomes available, nonstructural approaches (e.g., improved street cleaning, reduced
                   use of road salt) will be encouraged.

                   This policy is applicable primarily for stormwater runoff since the Village does not have a
                   combined sewer system. While water quality problems related to stormwater runoff are not
                   evident at present, concentration of development in the Village and outlying development in the
                   Town on surplus NYPA lands could increase both the amount of runoff and the amount of
                   pollutants carried by runoff.

                   Explanation of Policy, (Ref- Plates 4, 11, 15 and 18)

                   The discharge of sewage, garbage rubbish, and other solid and liquid materials from watercraft
                   and marinas into the State's waters is regulated. Priority will be given to the enforcement of
                   this law in areas such as significant fish and wildlife habitats, beaches, and public water supply
                   intakes, which need protection from contamination by vessel wastes. Also, specific effluent
                   standards for marine toilets have been promulgated by the NYS Department of Environmental
                   Conservation (6 NYCRR, Part 657).

                   Due to the absence of private marinas and the limited number of municipal or private docks,
                   problems involving the discharge of vessel wastes have not been identified in the coastal waters
                   of the Village and Town. However, should the shoreline areas of the lands held by the New
                   York Power Authority (NYPA) or the Ogdensburg Bridge and Port Authority (OBPA) be sold
                   or leased for marina development, then pumpout facilities would become essential in order to
                   handle discharges from marine holding tanks.

                  Dredging often proves to be essential for waterfront revitalization and development, maintaining
                  navigation channels at sufficient depths, pollutant removal and meeting other coastal management
                  needs. Such dredging. projects, however, may adversely affect water quality, fish and wildlife
                  habitats, wetlands, and other important coastal resources. Often these adverse effects can be
                  minimized- through careful design and timing of the dredging operation and proper siting of the
                  dredge spoil disposal site. Dredging permits will be granted by DEC if it has been satisfactorily
                  demonstrated that these anticipated adverse effects have been reduced to levels which satisfy
                  State dredging permit standards set forth in regulations developed pursuant to Environmental
                  Conservation Law (Articles 15, 24, 25, and 34), and are consistent with policies pertaining to
                  the protection of coastal resources (State Coastal Management Policies 7, 15, 24, 26 and 44).

                  Dredging and dredge spoil disposal issues and problems do not presently exist in the coastal
                  waters of the Town and Village. However, the availability of NYPA or OBPA lands for
                  development could induce proposals to dredge in either shallow bay areas or around the mouths
                  of streams flowing into Lake St. Lawrence. The review of applications for dredging should
                  consider achieving a balance between protective measures for the water quality of Sucker Brook
                  and Coles Creek and for the important fish and wildlife habitats at Brandy Brook, Coles Creek,
                  Sucker Brook and Whitehouse Bay and development measures providing for revitalization and
                  the siting at water-dependent uses.

                  NYS Environmental Conservation Law (Section 37-0101(2) defines substances hazardous to the
                  environment as, "substances which, because of their toxicity, magnification or concentration
                  within biological chains, present a demonstrated threat to biologic life cycles when discharged
                  into the environment."

                   through the Seaway system carries with them the continual risk of spills. A major spill in the
                   river upstream from Lake St. Lawrence could jeopardize water quality to fish and wildlife
                   habitats and recreational activities in the local waterfront area.


                   Safety and spillage containment considerations must be incorporated into the design of storage
                   facilitated for petroleum or other hazardous materials, when such facilities are allowed by the
                   Town Development Code or the Village Zoning Ordinance. For example, above-ground tanks
                   shall be mounted on a concrete pad with a lip. or curb to contain spillage. Applicants or
                   contractors shall consult the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and NYS Department of
                   Environmental Conservation (DEC) to determine acceptable safety standards for proposed fuel
                   facilities. All agencies and applicants must follow new DEC regulations regarding petroleum
                   bulk storage regulations (6 NYCRR Parts 610, 612, 613, and 614.

                   ExRlanation of Pglicy

                   Best management practices used to reduce these sources of pollution include but are not limited
                   to, encouraging organic farming and pest management principles, soil erosion control practices,
                   and surface drainage control techniques. Construction projects in the coastal area must have
                   erosion control devices (e.g., retaining walls or temporary coverage of bare soil with straw
                   mulch) in place when the ground is being disturbed.

                   Guidelines regulating development or construction to be used in implementing this policy include
                   the following:

                    I .    Runoff or other non-point pollutant sources from any specific development must not be
                           greater than would be the case under natural conditions. Appropriate techniques to
                           minimize such efforts shall include, but not be limited to, the use of stormwater detention
                           basins, rooftop runoff disposal, rooftop detention, parking lot storage and cistern storage.

                    2.     The construction site, or facilities, should fit the land, particularly with respect to its
                           limitations.

                    3.     Natural ground contours should be followed as closely as possible and grading
                           minimized.


                    4.     Areas of steep slopes, where high cuts and fills may be required, should be avoided.

                    5.     Extreme care should be exercised to locate artificial drainageways so that their final
                           gradient and resultant discharge velocity will not create additional erosion problems.


                                                                  IH-46









                   6.     Natural protective vegetation should remain undisturbed if at all possible; otherwise
                          plantings should compensate for the disturbance.

                   7.     The amount of time that disturbed ground surfaces are exposed to the energy of rainfall
                          and runoff water should be limited.

                   8.     The velocity of the runoff water on all areas subject to erosion should be reduced below
                          that necessary to erode the materials.

                   9.     A ground cover should be applied sufficient to restrain erosion on that portion of the
                          disturbed area undergoing no further active disturbance.

                   10.    Runoff from a site should be collected and detained in sediment basins to trap pollutants
                          which would otherwise be transported from the site.

                   11.    Provision should be made for permanent protection of downstream banks and channels
                          from the erosive effects of increased velocity and volume of runoff resulting from
                          facilities constructed.


                   12.    The angle for graded slopes and fills should be limited to an angle no greater than that
                          which can be retained by vegetative cover or other erosion control devices or structures.

                   13.    The length as well as the angle of graded slopes should be minimized to reduce the
                          erosive velocity of runoff water.

                   14.    Rather than merely minimize damage, take the opportunity to improve site conditions
                          wherever practicable.

                   Explanation of Policy

                   Solid wastes include sludge from air or water pollution control facilities, demolition and
                   construction debris, and industrial and commercial waste. Examples of solid waste management
                   facilities include resource recovery facilities, sanitary landfills and solid waste reduction
                   facilities. Although a fundamental problem associated with the disposal and treatment of solid
                   wastes is the contamination of water resources, other related problems may include: filling of
                   wetlands and littoral areas, atmospheric loading, and degradation of scenic resources.

                   Solid wastes and, in particular, hazardous materials do not pose a threat to water quality in the
                   local waterfront area. There are presently no landfills within the Town or Village. Refuse from
                   both communities is collected by private contractor and hauled to a private landfill in
                   Ogdensburg. With the construction of the St. Lawrence County's proposed solid waste disposal
                   facility in Ogdensburg, solid wastes are likely to be transported on NY Route 37 en route to that
                   facility.

                   Explanation of Policy

                   There are no major steam electric generating or industrial facilities located within the
                   Waddington waterfront area and no such facilities are anticipated. In the event that such
                   facilities are proposed within the waterfront area, review of such projects shall ensure that the
                   facility will "not discharge any effluent that will be unduly injurious to the propagation and
                   protection of fish and wildlife, the industrial development of the state, the public health, and
                   public enjoyment of the receiving waters." The effects of thermal discharges on water quality
                   and aquatic organisms will be considered when evaluating an applicant's request to construct a
                   new steam electric generating facility.

                   This Local Waterfront Revitalization Program incorporates the air quality policies and programs
                   developed for the State by the Department of Environmental Conservation pursuant to the Clean
                   Air Act and State Laws on air quality. The requirements of the Clean Air Act are the minimum
                   air quality control requirements applicable within the waterfront area.

                   To the extent possible, the State Implementation Plan will be consistent with the lands and water
                   use policies of this local program. Conversely, program decisions with regard to specific land
                   and water use proposals and any recommendations with regard to specific sites for major new
                   or expanded energy, transportation, or commercial facilities will reflect an assessment of their
                   compliance with the air quality requirements of the State Implementation Plan.

                   The Town's Local Water front Revitalization Program incorporates the State's policies on acid
                   rain. As such, the local program will assist in the State's efforts to control acid rain. These
                   efforts to control acid ram will enhance the continued viability of coastal fisheries, wildlife,
                   agricultural, scenic and water resources.

                  Extensive freshwater wetlands lie in the forest/wetlands complex east of the Norwood and St.
                  Lawrence Railroad. These wetlands, which contribute to the locally significant habitat there,
                  are not subject to threats from development pressure. Lesser wetlands are found around the
                  mouth of Sucker Brook and Brandy Brook and on state park lands east of Brandy Brook. A few
                  isolated pockets of wetlands are located between Whitehouse Bay and the Village's western
                  limits.   All of these wetlands embody recreational, aesthetic and/or ecological benefits.
                  Specifically, the benefits derived from the preservation of freshwater wetlands include, but are
                  not limited to:


                                 habitat for wildlife and fish, and contribution to associated aquatic food chains,
                                 and indirectly, to the local economy;

                               PROPOSED USES AND PROJECTS








                This section sets forth plans for the future of the Village and Town waterfront areas. Local
                planning and resource management efforts are drawn together herein with the aim of promoting
                beneficial use of coastal resources.      Officials of the two communities intend to foster
                revitalization and economic development within an environmentally sound land use framework---
                one which will protect and enhance the resource base rather than deplete or degrade it.

                1.     PROPOSED LAND USES


                Proposed land uses for the waterfront are addressed under five categories for the Village
                (Public/Semi-Public, Village Core Commercial, Tourism/Recreation Commercial, One- and
                Two-Family Residential, and Multiple-Family Residential), and four categories for the Town
                (Public/Semi-Public, Rural Development, Limited Development, and Natural Resources). The
                distribution and general characteristics of proposed land uses are described below under separate
                headings for the Village and Town:

                A.     VILLAGE (See Plate 22)


                1.     Public/Semi-Public. The proposed future distribution of uses in this category is
                       essentially the same as shown on Plate 20 - Existing Land and Water Uses (in Section
                       IV) - with two exceptions.

                       First, a vacant parcel located between Hamilton and Pine Streets is proposed as
                       Public/Semi-Public. Secondly, the holdings of the Ogdensburg Bridge and Port
                       Authority on Clark Point have been removed from this category assuming their eventual
                       sale to, and development by, private sector interests.

                       The principal types of uses in this category would be unchanged from those described
                       in Section 11: flood control, public access and recreation, sewage treatment, water
                       supply, post office, churches, etc. Intended expansion of public access and recreation
                       is treated under PROPOSED PROJECTS later in this section.

                2.     Village Core Commercial. A limited expansion of uses in this category is proposed for
                       Main Street, primarily as infill or conversions. The types of uses envisioned are small
                       ships and stores providing goods and services to the permanent residents of the area.

                3.     Tourism/Recreation Commercial. Two areas are proposed in this category: the OBPA
                       holdings on Clark Point and the existing golf course between Sucker Brook and Little
                       Sucker Brook. Motels, restaurants, taverns, marine supplies and services, and other
                       tourism-related and recreational resort uses are intended.


                4.     One- and Two-Family Residential. The remainder of the waterfront area, excluding
                       a small area along the north side of St. Lawrence Avenue, is proposed to be one- and
                       two-family residential.



                                                              IV-3








                         Multiple-Family Residential. The excluded area mentioned above is proposed for
                         multiple-family use.

                  B.     TOWN (See Plate 22)

                  1.     Public/Semi-Public. As in the case of the Village, proposed public and semi-public uses
                         in the Town correspond with those on Plate 20, with the exception that portions of the
                         New York Power Authority's holdings have been removed from this category. This
                         reflects the anticipated sale of various parcels for private development.

                         Flood control, State park land and Town public access and recreation are the' intended
                         public/semi-public uses.

                  2.     Moderate Density Residential/Moderate Intensity Non-Residential. This category of
                         land uses is proposed to occur in the central area between Whitehouse Bay and the
                         Iroquois Dam, on small portions of Ogden Island, in several small pockets along NY
                         Route 37 to the west of the Village, and in a small area near the Town's eastern
                         boundary in the southeast part of the Town. A mix of residential and non-residential
                         uses is anticipated with greater density and intensity favored because of more suitable soil
                         conditions and minimal impact on valuable or sensitive resources.

                  3.     Limited Density Residential/Limited Intensity Non-Residential. West of the Village,
                         the distribution of uses in this category would occupy two large areas between
                         Whitehouse Bay and the Iroquois Dam, a large area east of Whitehouse Bay, portions of
                         Ogden Island, and most of the frontage along NY Route 37, River Road (the westerly
                         extension of St. Lawrence Avenue out from the Village), Brown Church Road, Route
                         131, Buck Road, and NY Route 37A. East of the Village, this category of uses would
                         occupy small -pockets in the vicinity of Brandy Brook and near Coles Creek in the
                         southeast part of the Town.

                         The uses proposed in these areas are primarily residential mixed with occasional non-
                         residential types depending on the suitability of specific sites. In both cases, the density
                         or intensity of use would be limited in recognition of development limitations imposed
                         by soil types.

                  4.     Agricultural/Low Density Residential/Low Intensity Non-Residential. Uses in this
                         category would occupy various pockets of land along NY Route 37 to the west of the
                         Village, a small area in the southeastermost part of the Town, and a vast area south of
                         NY Route 37 east of Brandy Brook. Proposed uses in these areas would be agricultural,
                         residential uses on large lots, and occasional non-residential uses where determined to
                         be compatible with the valuable and sensitive resources present.

                                              PROPOSED WATER USES


                Proposed water uses are basically the same as existing water uses shown on Plate 20. Two
                notable changes are envisioned for the Town's waterfront area: a private marina between
                Leishman Point and the mainland, and docking facilities on the southern side and eastern tip of
                Ogden Island. In the Village's waterfront, private marina facilities are proposed for the mouth
                of Sucker Brook. (See Plate 22).

                                               PROPOSED PROJECTS

                The objectives of the proposed projects described in the-remainder of this section are to stimulate
                tourism development in the waterfront area and to improve the quality of life for local residents.
                Only public access and recreation projects are addressed since the development of private water-
                dependent and water-enhanced facilities for tourism will depend entirely on the extent of future
                land sales (or leases) by the New York Power Authority.

                A.      VIILLAGE


                1.      Whittaker Park Improvements.            (See Figure 5)      This project entails overall
                        rehabilitation and improvement of the Village's 30-year old Whittaker Park as follows:

                        a.     Existing Boat Launch-repave the launch ramp, add a turn-around so vehicles can
                               back down the ramp to off-load boats, a gravel parking area for vehicles and
                               trailers adjacent to the sewer plant. Presently parking along the access road cuts
                               off access to the ramp and the facility cannot be used or it is "filled up" after a
                               limited number of launches.


                        b.     Ballfields-add new clay infields and replace the backstop fencing. The existing
                               fencing is almost 30 years old and needs replacement. Add dugouts and lighting
                               for baseball field.


                        C.     Swingsets (3)-replace these 30 year old units with new swingsets with at least one
                               handicapped access swing unit.

                        d.     Courts (2 Tennis, 2 Basketball)-replace existing fencing, backstop facings, add
                               a new court paint system, and upgrade lighting.

                        e.     Play equipment at tots area-replace existing equipment with new and with
                               handicapped access units.

                        f.     Rest Rooms-refurbish the existing single male, single female bathrooms (total of
                               1 urinal, 1 water closets, 2 sinks) with new stalls and equipment. - Place an
                               outside ramp into each door, make doors larger, make rest rooms accessible to
                               the handicapped.


                                                               IV-7








                        9-     Parking along Pine Street-repave and provide handicapped signage.

                        h.     Walks and picnic area-pave walk system for handicapped access. Provide paved
                               area for handicapped access to fishing at rail along River (two locations). Add
                               ten picnic tables along River with two sites paved and with wheelchair accessible
                               picnic table.

                2.      River Front Park Improvements. (See Figure 6) As in the case of Whittaker Park to
                        the east, the 30-year old River Front Park is proposed to be rehabilitated and improved
                        as follows:


                        a.     Walkways-pave all existing walkway (Clinton to Pine Street), add a paved
                               walkway connecting to Main Street walks, extend walkway to Platele Street walks
                               (Clinton to Platele Street).

                        b.     Fish access-pave fishing access spots (3) along walkway at rail on River edge
                               making them accessible to handicapped.

                        C.     Boat launch ramp-construct a new boat launch ramp at the end of Main Street,
                               pave a drive to this ramp.

                        d.     Village Public Dock at end of Main Street-add driven piling sheets (25' long)
                               200' of shoreline to permit docking of transient boats for access to park, shopping
                               and restaurants. Redo planking on existing dock. - Existing dock is fixed
                               elevation dock and does not easily allow docking under fluctuating water levels.

                        e.     Sewer pumpout facility-provide a pump and new gravity sewer line into the
                               adjacent existing sewer pump station at the Main Street Public Dock so that River
                               boat traffic can empty their sewage.

                        f.     Parking lot at end of Clinton Street-repave and relocate hydrant out of lot or
                               provide barrier for protection of hydrant.

                        9.     Existing small pavilion-add paved floor to make accessible for handicapped and
                               add paved walk to park walk system.

                3.      Multipurpose Pavilion. (See Figure 5)

                        Erect a multiuse covered pavilion 225' x 125' on two acre vacant parcel (253' x 355)
                        of donated land. Parcel is directly adjacent to Whittaker Park bounded by Pine Street
                        on the east and Hamilton Street on the south and west. Pavilion to have a paved floor,
                        no exterior walls, is to be roofed and lit on the interior. It is to be used for a covered




                                                               IV-8

                 TECHNIQUES FOR LOCAL IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PROGRAM







                Implementation of the policies in Section III and the proposed uses and projects in Section IV
                will depend upon various regulatory, administrative, and financial techniques.              These
                implementation techniques are described in this section under five subheadings:

                       A.      Local Laws and Regulations
                       B.      Other Public and Private Actions
                       C.      Management Structure
                       D.      Financial Resources

                1.     Existing Local laws and Regrulatio

                ViHage. The principal means of regulating land uses and development
                impacts within the Village are its zoning ordinance and its sewer ordinance.

                a.     Zoning Ordinance of the Village of Waddington, New York (adopted October 24, 1968).
                       The Village's zoning ordinance consists of 23 sections as follows:

                       SECTIONS 1, 2, and 3 cover the title, purposes, and definitions, respectively.

                       SECTION 4 establishes four zoning districts (R-1, One and Two Family Residential; R-
                       2, Multiple Family Residential; B-1, General Business; and I-1, Industrial).

                       SECTIONS 5 and 6 establish the zoning map (see Plate 23) and provide rules for its
                       interpretation, respectively.

                       SECTION 7 provides for the applicability of the regulations.

                       SECTION 8 through 11, inclusive, set forth the permitted        uses, required lot sizes,
                       maximum percentage of lot coverage, yard requirements, and requirements for accessory
                       buildings in each of the zoning districts.

                       SECTION 12 provides supplementary regulations covering dwellings on small lots,
                       comer lots in residential districts, garages on adjoining lots, roadside stands, averaging
                       front yard depth, reduction of lot area, off-street parldrig, and mobile homes.

                       SECTION 13 covers non-conforming uses.

                       SECTIONS 14 through 17, inclusive, provide for enforcement by a Building Inspector,
                       building permit issuance only in conformity with provisions of the zoning ordinance, a
                       certificate of occupancy prior to use or occupancy of land or buildings, and fees for such
                       permit and certificate, respectively.



                                                              v-3








                        SECTION 18 provides for actions or proceedings to prevent or correct violations and sets
                        a fine for such violations.


                        SECTIONS 19, 20, and 21 establish a Board of Appeals, describe its appeal procedures,
                        and specify its powers and duties, respectively.

                        SECTIONS 22 and 23 cover validity of the zoning ordinance and amendment thereto,
                        respectively.

                b.      Sewer Ordinance (adopted June 7, 1966). Under 10 Articles, the Village sewer
                        ordinance provides definitions, controls unsanitary waste disposal, prevents 'untreated
                        discharges, requires private hook-ups to the public sewers when available, controls
                        private sewage disposal systems in unsewered areas, sets forth requirements and
                        specifications for proper installation of building sewers and connections to public sewers,
                        provides for control of stormwater and run-off from entry into the sanitary sewer system,
                        and controls the nature of effluent that may be discharged into the system. The
                        ordinance also sets forth miscellaneous provisions covering prevention of damage to the
                        system, powers and duties of the Superintendent, violations and penalties, conflicts with
                        other ordinances, validity, effective date, and adoption.

                Town


                a.      Town of Waddington Development Code (adopted December 9, 1985). This local law
                        used the zoning powers authorized in Town Law and the broad authority of Municipal
                        Home Rule Law to establish a performance-based method of regulating land use.
                        Although the Development Code has many provisions commonly found in traditional
                        zoning ordinances, it differs significantly by employing Development Suitability Areas
                        (rather than rigid zoning districts) and a system of permits, standards, and board
                        approvals which allows considerable flexibility in the types of land uses possible on any
                        given property. Based on Directions for Tomorro-K, an unofficial Town master plan, the
                        Development Code emphasizes protection of natural resources, restriction of land uses
                        in areas with limitations to development and encouragement for land uses in areas with
                        better development suitability.

                        The Development Code's six sections are summarized as follows:

                        SECTION 1, GENERAL PROVISIONS. The first section consists of Introductory
                        Provisions (Authority, Short Title, Effective Date, and Purpose);              Development
                        Suitability Provisions (Establishment of Development Suitability Areas, Development
                        Suitability Plate as shown on Plate 24, and Regulation of Development Suitability Areas);
                        and Other Provisions (Applicability, Interpretation, Conflicts, Separability, Violations and
                        Penalties, and Nonconforming Uses, Lots, and Structures).

                        SECTION 2, DEVELOPMENT SUITABILITY REGULATIONS. Section 2 sets forth
                        the area requirements, compatible uses, and exceptional developments for each
                        Development Suitability Area classification: Natural Resource Areas (NR), Limited
                        Development Areas (LD), and Rural Development Areas (RD). This section also adds
                        special requirements for exceptional developments in all Development Suitability Areas.
                        The requirements of this section are summarized in a Development Suitability Schedule.

                        SECTION 3, SUPPLEMENTAL REGULATIONS. This section establishes Overlay
                        Regulations for the waterfront area, freshwater wetlands, and floodplain. It provides for
                        the regulation of Mobile Home Courts and Signs. Special setback requirements are
                        included for waterfront lots, multiple frontage lots, averaging for in-fill development, and
                        visibility at intersections. The section also regulates off-street parking, unlicensed motor
                        vehicles, filling and excavating. Finally, the section concludes with Site Plan Review
                        Regulations.

                        SECTION 4, PERFORMANCE STANDARDS AND CONDITIONS. This section sets
                        down standards for all compatible uses, special uses, and exceptional developments. In
                        addition, it provides conditions that apply to the approvals of special uses and exceptional
                        developments.

                        SECTION 5, ADMINISTRATION AND ENFORCEMENT. Section 5 covers
                        requirements and procedures for Development Permits; the suthority, powers, and duties
                        of the Development Permit Administrator; and procedures for Planning Board and Town
                        Board approvals. This section also provides for appeals and standardized application
                        requirements.

                        SECTION 6, DEFINITIONS. The final section lists both general meanings and specific
                        definitions.


                b.      Town of Waddington Sanitary Regulations (adopted September 12, 1977). These
                        regulations govern the disposal of sewage and the location, design, and construction of
                        new individual sewage disposal systems in the Town. New York State Department of
                        Health standards are incorporated by reference. The repair, alteration, or enlargement
                        of existing systems must comply with these regulations. Provisions are included for
                        approval of altemative and innovative systems, site inspections, permits, and
                        enforcement.



                                                                V-9









                 Assessment


                 Village regulatory techniques for implementing the policies and purposes of this program were
                 presently inadequate. Although the zoning and sewer ordinances addressed many of the
                 applicable development and water quality policies in Section III, an array of other policies were
                 addressed only peripherally or not at all. Also, the proposed land uses of Section IV could not
                 be implemented by the Zoning Ordinanace.

                 Those policy areas which lacked regulatory means of implementation are as follows:

                 (1)    promotion of water-dependent and water-enhanced uses;

                 (2)    protection, restoration, and recreational use of fish and wildlife habitats;

                 (3)    protection of public access and recreation sites from the negative impacts of adjacent
                        private development and emphasis on public access as a multiple use;

                 (4)    protection of historic, archeological, and scenic resources; and

                 (5)    control of non-point water pollution and surface water quality.

                 The balance of applicable policies relies on either. state or federal regulations or local non-
                 regulatory measures.

                 The Town's Development Code, on the other hand, would fully implement those policies and
                 purposes of this program applicable to its waterfront area. While the code was structured to
                 guide future land use and development based on suitability and protection of natural resources,
                 it was also designed with specific regulatory means for implementing coastal policies. The
                 Waterfront Area Overlay was included with the provision that uses therein, if subject to site plan
                 review requirements of the code, would be reviewed using the policies of this program as
                 standards.


                 One and two-family residential uses, agricultural uses and structures and structural additions
                 under 500 sq. ft. in area were exempted from site plan review. Although such development
                 would not be subject to the coastal policies directly, their future distribution and impacts would
                 be adequately handled by the basic arrangement of Development Suitability Areas and the
                 performance standards within the code. The Town's Sanitary Code is one such performance
                 standard.


                 Land subdivision is the only activity for which the Development Code would not provide
                 adequate regulatory means of implementing the program's policies and purposes. The potential
                 sale and development of New York Power Authority surplus lands draws attention to this
                 shortcoming.





                                                               V-10







                2.     Additional 1.4wal Laws and Regulations Adopted to bnplement LWRP

                To resolve shortcomings in their existing regulatory means for implementing this program, the
                Village and Town enacted the following:

                ViUage

                       a.      Amendments to the Zoning Ordinance.

                               (1)    Section 2. Purposes: This section was amended. to include imple-
                                      mentation of the policies and purposes of the Local W aterfront
                                      Revitalization Program as one of the purposes of the zoning ordinance.

                               (2)    Section 4. Districts: The amendment of this section created a Waterfront
                                      Overlay District wherein all uses, except one- or two-family residential
                                      uses, will be subject to site plan review as described under item d. below.

                               (3)    Section 5. Plate: This amendment entailed the adoption of a new zoning
                                      map (See Plate 25) to clarify existing district boundaries and to delineate
                                      the aforementioned Waterfront Overlay District.

                               (4)    SECTION 15. Building Permit: Site Plan Review was added as an
                                      amendment tothis section. Prior to the issuance of a building permit, a
                                      site plan will be required for review and approval by the Village Planning
                                      Board. State and local coastal. policies are included as standards for the
                                      site plan review.

                       b.      LWRP    Consistency Law. As is expected of all communities with LWRP's
                               approval by the NYS Secretary of State, an LWRP Consistency Law was enacted
                               by the Village of Waddington. This local law would obligates each board, office,
                               officer, or agency of the Village to undertake proposed actions in the waterfront
                               area in a manner consistent with the policies and purposes of the LWRP. Local
                               consistency review procedures would be provided     in such Law.

                Town


                       a.      Development Code Amendments.

                               (1)    Section 1, Paragraph 1.22, Dev"o ment Suitabili1y Plate: Prior to
                                      adoption in 1985, the proposed Development Suitability Plate was adjusted
                                      to remove any and all public lands from the Development Suitability
                                      Areas. Proposed land sales by the New York Power Authority have
                                      pointed the need to review the map. All land in the Town--public or
                                      private--was classified into Development Suitability Areas. (See Plate 26)



                                                              V-11







                               (2)     Section 3, Paragraph 3. 11, Waterfront Area was amended to include the
                                       actual State and local policies of the LVVTRP in an appendix to the
                                       Development Code rather than simply referring to those set forth in the
                                       Joint 1=0 Waterfront Revitalization Program.

                               (3)     Site Plan Review Regulations. Although the Development Code gives
                                       Waddington Planning Board authority to review, and approve, approve
                                       with. modifications, or disapprove site. development plans, no specific
                                       regulations are included for specifying site plan content, review
                                       procedures, or approval standards. Separate regulations were adopted by
                                       the Planning Board (subject to Town Board approval) for this purpose.

                               (4)     Subdivision Regulations.      Given the potential for substantial land
                                       subdivision associated with the anticipated sale of NYPA lands,
                                       subdivision regulations will be necessary. Although the Town Board
                                       originally gave its Planning Board subdivision review authority in the
                                       resolution which created it, no subdivision regulations were actually
                                       prepared. The Planning Board has prepared and adopted such regulations
                                       which has been approved by the Town Board. The Town Board adopted
                                       a separate local law for enforcement of subdivision regulations.

                               (5)     LWRP Consistency Law. The Town has adopted an LWRP Consistency
                                       Law comparable to that described above for the Vil4ge.
                B.      OTHER PUBLIC AND PRIVATE ACTIONS                                                              0

                I .     Sale of NYPA Lands. This section is the most significant for revitalization and economic
                        development activity in the Village and Town waterfront areas. Land held idle since the
                        c.onstruction of the St. Lawrence Power Project will be reintroduced to the private
                        market. With aggressive and widespread marketing measure, it is reasonable to expect
                        new second home development and, possibly, the attraction of resort and private
                        recreation interests. No other areas along the N.Y. side of the St. Lawrence River have
                        such potential; and none were afforded such an opportunity for overall planned and
                        coordinated development. The NYPA lands hold much promise for avoiding the
                        piecemeal and often overdeveloped character evident in many portions of the Thousand
                        Islands. Careful land use guidance, control for good design, and sensitive treatment
                        regarding scenic views, public access, impacts on fish and wildlife habitats and physical
                        limitations to development will be needed.

                        The New York Power Authority should work closely with the Village and Town --- as well
                        as with other county, state, and federal agencies --- to optimize economic benefits within
                        a sound resource management framework.

               2.      Negotiations with NYPA re: Private Water-     Dependent Uses. Private marinas, whether
                       in conjunction with resort development,or not, will still be excluded from the shoreline
                       unless NYPA's land sales also are accompanied by the ability to negotiate for lease of
                       immediate shoreline use. It is difficult to conceive of successful tourism expansion in
                       the waterfront area if NYPA's retention of the immediate shoreline precludes all water-
                       dependent uses other than flood control.

                       Village and Town officials will encourage and, hopefully, participate with NYPA,
                       regarding such negotiations. Such marketing of NYPA's surplus lands may depend on
                       its ability to offer resort development interests means of including water-dependent uses
                       in their plans.

               3.      Habitat Study.  Limited documentation is currently available regarding the Brandy Brook,
                       Coles Creek, and Whitehouse Bay fish and wildlife habitats. In cooperation with the
                       NYS Department of Environmental Conservation, the St. Lawrence-Eastern Ontario
                       Commission, the local chapter of the Audubon Society, and others, the Town proposes
                       a study of local habitat areas in relation to intended sales of surplus NYPA lands. In
                       addition, the vast area of upland and forested wetland habitat between Brandy Brook and
                       Coles Creek would be investigated to determine its value as habitat area and its relative
                       importance to the two stream habitats.

               Town Only

               1.      Iroquois Dam Interpretative Park Feasibility Study. Separately, the Town proposes that
                       a feasibility study be undertaken in conjunction with NYPA to determine if a multi-
                       purpose interpretative park could be developed along the shoreline at the Iroquois Dam.
                       The park might feature displays highlighting the history of the St. Lawrence River Power
                       Project (with photos of before, during, and after its construction), a large map or series
                       of air photos of the "power pool", and general information on the importance of
                       hydroelectric power production, the power grid, and NYPA itself.

                       In addition to interpreatative facilities, the park might include a small observation tower
                       for viewing the dam and distant locks, a passive shoreline area for viewing passing ships,
                       and picnic area(s). These (and possibly other) facilities would serve a dual purpose as
                       adjoining surplus lands are sold and developed by private interests. Seasonal residents
                       and visitors to any resort establishments would have a public access and recreation area.

                       STATE AND FEDERAL ACTIONS AND PROGRAMS
                           LH(ELY TO AFFECT IMPLEMENTATION







                State and Federal actions will affect and be affected by implementation of the LWRP. Under
                State law and the U.S. Coastal Zone Management Act, certain State and Federal actions within
                or affecting the local waterfront area must be "consistent" or "consistent to the maximum extent
                practicable" with the enforceable policies and purposes of the LWRP. This consistency
                requirement makes the LY*rRP a unique, intergovernmental mechanism for setting policy and
                making decisions and helps to prevent detrimental actions from occurring and future options
                from being needlessly foreclosed. At the same time, the active participation of State and Federal
                agencies is also likely to be necessary to implement specific provisions of the LYTRP.

                The first part of this section identifies the actions and programs of State and Federal agencies
                which should be undertaken in a manner consistent with the LVrRP. This is a generic list of
                actions and programs, as identified by the NYS Department of State; therefore, some of the
                actions and programs listed may not be relevant to this Village/Town of Waddington Waterfront
                Revitalization Area.


                Pursuant to the State Waterfront Revitalization and Coastal Resources Act (Executive Law,
                Article 42), the Secretary of State individually and separately notifies affected State agencies of
                those agency actions and programs which are to be undertaken in a. manner consistent with
                approved LWRPs. Similarly, Federal agency actions and programs subject to consistency
                requirements are identified in the manner prescribed by the U.S. Coastal Zone Management Act
                and its implementing regulation. The lists of State and Federal actions and programs included
                herein are informational only and do not represent or substitute for the required identification
                and notification procedures.

                The second part of this section is a more focused and descriptive list of State and Federal agency
                actions which are necessary to further implementation of the LWRP. Reference should be made
                to Section IV and Section V, which also discuss State and Federal assistance needed to
                implement the LWRP.

                 A.     STATE ACTIONS AND PROGRAMS


                 The following is a generic list of State agency programs and act ivities, as identified by the NYS
                 Department of State, which should be undertaken in a manner consistent with approved
                 LWRP's. It should be noted that some of these programs and activities may not be relevant to
                 the Town of Esopus Waterfront Revitalization Area.

                 Pursuant to Article 42 of the Executive Law, the Secretary of State individually and separately
                 notifies affected State agencies of those agency programs and activities which are to be
                 undertaken in a manner consistent with approved LWRP's. The following list is informational
                 only and does not represent or substitute for the notification required by Article 42.

                Developing a solid community commitment to the Local Waterfront Revitalization Program is
                essential to assure implementation of the State and local policies, proposed land and water uses,
                and proposed projects therein. To this end, the village and town have established the following
                mechanisms to foster public participation in and support for development of the LWRP and its
                ultimate implementation:

                1.      Waterfront Advisory Committee Meetings - In the Spring of 1983, the existing
                        Economic Development Committee, which jointly represented the village and town, was
                        designated as the Waterfront Advisory Committee for the two communities. As work
                        on the program progressed, members of the Village Board, Town Board, and Town
                        Planning Board were added to the Committee. The work was delayed during 1985 due
                        to extensive involvement in enacting the town's Development Code and delayed again
                        during 1986 due to the attention given to the proposed sale of surplus lands of the New
                        York Power Authority. Finally, a rigorous schedule of monthly Waterfront Advisory
                        Committee meetings during 1987 moved the draft LWRP to completion.

                2.      Town Planning Board. The Planning Board of the Town of Waddington has contributed
                        both direct and indirect input to the LWRP.          Its members reviewed plans and
                        recommendations for the surplus NYPA lands, developed subdivision regulations and will
                        soon prepare site plan review regulations. They will soon complete a draft of proposed
                        amendments to the Development Code which adresses formerly excluded public lands
                        including those of NYPA.

                3.      A public information meeting. Shortly after completing the first five
                        sections of the program, the Waterfront Advisory Committee held a public information
                        meeting to solicit additional comments on the program.

                4.      Public hearing. During the comment period on the program's draft environmental
                        impact statement, the Village Board of Trustees and the Town Board held a joint public
                        hearing. The hearing addressed both the draft program and the draft EIS.

                              CONSISTENCY REVIEW OF FEDERAL AGENCY ACTIONS



                 DIRECT ACTIONS


                 1.     After acknowledging the receipt of a consistency determination and supporting
                        documentation from a federal agency, DOS will forward copies of the determination and
                        other descriptive information on the proposed direct action to the program coordinator
                        (of an approved LWRP) and other interested parties.

                 2.     This notification will indicate the date by which all comments and recommenda-tions
                        must be submitted to DOS and will identify the Department's principal reviewer for the
                        proposed action.

                 3.     The review period will be about twenty-five (25) days.                If comments and
                        recommendations are not received by the date indicated in the notification, DOS will
                        presume that the municipality has "no opinion" on the consistency of the proposed direct
                        federal agency action with local coastal policies.

                 4.     If DOS does not fully concur with and/or has any questions on the comments and
                        recommendations submitted by the municipality, DOS will contact the municipality to
                        discuss any differences of opinion or questions pjLor to agreeing or disagreeing with the
                        federal agency's consistency determination on the proposed direct action.

                 5.     A copy of DOS' "agreement" or "disagreement" letter to the federal agency will be
                        forwarded to the local program coordinator.

                 PERMIT AND LICENSE ACTIONS


                 1.     DOS will acknowledge the receipt of an applicant's consistency certification           and
                        application materials.   At that time, DOS will forward a copy of the submitted
                        documentation to the program coordinator an will identify the Department's principal
                        reviewer for the proposed action.

                 2.     Within thirty (30) days of receiving such information, the program coordinator will
                        contact the principal reviewer for DOS to. discuss: (a) the need to request additional
                        information for review purposes; and (b) any possible problems pertaining to the
                        consistency of a proposed action with local coastal policies.

                 3.     When DOS and the program coordinator agree that additional information is necessary,
                        DOS will request the applicant to provide the information. A copy of this information
                        will be provided to the program coordinator upon receipt.


                                                               c-3








                 4.     Within thirty (30) days of receiving the requested additional information or discussing
                        possible problems of a proposed action with the principal reviewer for DOS, whichever
                        is later, the program coordinator will notify DOS of the reasons why a proposed action
                        may be inconsistent or consistent with local coastal policies.

                 5.     After the notification, the program coordinator will submit the municipality's written
                        comments and recommendations on a proposed permit action to DOS before or at the
                        conclusion of the official public comment period.             If such comments and
                        recommendations are not forwarded to DOS by the end of the public comment period,
                        DOS will presum that the municipality has "no opinion" on the consistency of the
                        proposed action with local coastal policies.

                 6.     If DOS does not fully concur with and/or has any questions on the comments and

                        PURPOSES OF GUIDELINES

                        A.      The Waterfront Revitalization of Coastal Areas and Inland Waterways Act
                                (Article 42 of the Executive Law) and the Department of State's regulations (19
                                NYCRR Part 600) require certain state agency actions identified by the Secretary
                                of State to be consistent to the maximum extent practicable with the policies and
                                purposes of approved Local Waterfront Revitaliza-tion Programs (LWRPs).
                                These guidelines are intended to assist state agencies in meeting that statutory
                                consistency obligation.

                        B.      The Act also requires that state agencies provide timely notice to the situs local
                                government whenever an identified action will occur within an area covered by
                                an approved LWRP. These guidelines describe a process for complying with this
                                notification requirement.     They also provide procedures to assist local
                                governments in carrying out their review responsibilities in a timely manner.

                        C.      The Secretary of State is required by the Act to confer with state agencies and
                                local governments when notified by a local government that a proposed state
                                agency action may conflict with the policies and purposes of its approved LWRP.
                                These guidelines"establish a procedure for resolving such conflicts.



                        DEFE'qMONS


                        A.      AcjLon means:

                                1.     A "Type V or "Unlisted" action as defined by the State Environmental
                                       Quality Review Act (SEQRA);

                                2.     Occurring within the boundaries of an approved LVVRP; and

                                3.     Being taken pursuant to a state agency program or activity which has been
                                       identified by the Secretary of State as likely to affect the policies and
                                       purposes of the LWRP.

                        B.      Consistent to ft maximuLn extent practicable means that an action will not

                                                               C-6








                                approved LWRP and, whenever practicable, will advance one or more of such
                                policies. If an action will substantially hinder any of the policies or purposes of
                                an approved LWRP, then the action must be one:

                                1.      For which no reasonable alternatives exist that would avoid or overcome
                                        any substantial hindrance;

                                2.      That will minimize all adverse effects on the policies or purposes of the
                                        LWRP to the maximum extent practicable; and

                                3.      That will result in an overriding regional or statewide public benefit.

                        C.      Local Waterfront Revitalization Program or LWRP means a program prepared
                                and adopted by a local government and approved by the Secretary of State
                                pursuant to Executive Law, Article 42; which program contains policies on the
                                management of land, water and man-made resources, proposed land uses and
                                specific projects that are essential to program implementation.


                        NOTMCATION PROCEDURE

                        A.      When a state agency is considering an action as described in H above, the state
                                agency shall notify the affected local government.

                        B.      Notification of a proposed action by a state agency:

                                1.      Shall fully describe the nature and location of the action;

                                2.      Shall be accomplished by use of either the State Clearinghouse, other
                                        existing state agency notification procedures, or through an alternative
                                        procedure agreed upon by the state agency and local government;

                                3.      Should be provided to the local official identified in the LVVRP of the situs
                                        local government as early in the planning stages of the action as possible,
                                        but in any event at least 30 days prior to the agency's decision on the
                                        action. (The timely filing of a copy of a completed Coastal Assessment
                                        Form with the local LWRP official should be considered adequate
                                        notification of a proposed action.)

                        C.      If the proposed action will require the preparation of a draft environ-mental
                                impact statement, the filing of this draft document with the chief executive officer.
                                can serve as the state agency's notification to the situs local government.




                                                                 C-7










                 IV. LOCAL GOVERNMENT REVILEW PROCEDURE


                         A.     Upon receipt of notification from a state agency, the situs local govern-ment will
                                be responsible for evaluating a proposed action against the policies and purposes
                                of its approved LWRP. Upon request of the local official identified in the
                                LWRP, the state agency should promptly provide the situs local government with
                                whatever additional information is available which will assist the situs local
                                government to evaluate the proposed action.

                         B.     If the situs local government cannot identify any conflicts between the proposed
                                action and the applicable policies and purposes of its approved LWRP, it should
                                inform the state agency in writing of its finding. Upon receipt of the local
                                government's finding, the state agency may proceed with its consideration of the
                                proposed action in accordance with 19 NYCRR Part 600.

                         C.     If the situs local government does not notify the state agency in writing of its
                                finding within the established review period, the state agency may then presume
                                that the proposed action does not conflict with the policies and purposes of the
                                municipality's approved LWRP.

                         D.     If the situs local government notifies the state agency in writing that the proposed
                                action does conflict with the policies and/or purposes of its approved LVVRP, the
                                state agency shall not proceed with its consi-deration of, or decision on, the
                                proposed action as long as the Resolution of Conflicts procedure established in
                                V below shall apply. The local government shall forward a copy of the identified
                                conflicts to the Secretary of State at the time when the state agency is notified.
                                In notifying the state agency, the local government shall identify the specific
                                policies and purposa-of the LV;RP with which the proposed action conflicts.



                 V. RESOLUTION OF CONFLICTS

                         A.     The following procedure applies whenever a local government has notified the
                                Secretary of State and state agency that a proposed action conflicts with the
                                policies and purposes of its approved LWRP:

                                1.      Upon receipt of notification from a local government that a proposed
                                        action conflicts with its approved LWRP, the state agency should contact
                                        the local LWRP official to discuss the content of the identified conflicts
                                        and the means for resolving them. A meeting of state agency and local
                                        government repre-sentatives may be necessary to discuss and resolve the
                                        identified conflicts. This discussion should take place within 30 days of
                                        the receipt of a conflict notification from the local government.



                                                                C-8








                                 2.      If the discussion between the situs local government and the state agency
                                         results in the resolution of the identified conflicts, then, within seven days
                                         of the discussion, the situs local government shall notify the state agency
                                         in writing, with a copy forwarded to,the Secretary of State, that all of the
                                         identified conflicts have been resolved. The state agency can then proceed
                                         with its consideration of the proposed. @action in accordance with 19
                                         NYCRR Part 600.


                                 3.      If the consultation between the situs local government and the state agency
                                         does not lead to the resolution of the j4entified conflicts, either party may
                                         request, in writing, the assistance of the Secretary of State to resolve any
                                         or all of the identified conflicts;. T-his,, request must be received by the
                                         Secretary within 15 days following the.discussion between the situs local
                                         government and the state agency.., Thp party requesting the assistance of
                                         the Secretary of State shall forward a copy of their request to the other
                                         party-

                                 4.      Within 30 days following.the      receipt  of a request for assistance, the
                                         Secretary or a Department of State official or employee designated by the
                                         Secretary, will discuss the identified conflicts and circumstances
                                         preventing their resolution withappropriate representatives from the state
                                         agency and situs local government.

                                 5.      If agreement among all parties canno    t be reached during this discussion,
                                         the Secretary shall, within 15 days, notify both parties of his/her fmdings
                                         and recommendations.

                                 6.      The state agency shall not proceedywith its consideration of, or decision
                                         on, the proposed action as long as the foregoing Resolution of Conflicts
                                         procedures shall apply.
