The
purpose of this DEIS is to analyze
significant issues and information
relevant to environmental concerns
regarding the proposed ecosystem
restoration at Liberty State Park, Hudson
County, NJ. The restoration of the 234
acre interior section, currently fenced
off and inaccessible, will provide
substantial benefit to all 1,121 acres of
Liberty State Park by linking previously
developed and restored, but isolated,
components of the park into one
cohesive whole. The study was
conducted under the authority of a
resolution adopted by the Committee on
Transportation and Infrastructure of the
U.S. House of Representatives on April
15, 1999, Docket 2596:
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Resolved by the Committee on
Transportation and Infrastructure of the
United States House of Representatives, That,
the Secretary of the Army is requested to
review the reports of the Chief of Engineers
on the New York and New Jersey Channels,
published as House Document 133, 74th
Congress, 1st Session; the New York and
New Jersey Harbor Entrance Channels and
Anchorage Areas, published as Senate
Document 45, 84th Congress, 1st Session;
and the New York Harbor, NY Anchorage
Channel, published as House Document 18,
71st Congress, 2nd Session, as well as other
related reports with a view to determining
the feasibility of environmental restoration
and protection relating to water resources
and sediment quality within the New York
and New Jersey Port District, including but
not limited to creation, enhancement, and
restoration of aquatic, wetland, and adjacent
upland habitats.
The purpose of this DEIS is to analyze
significant issues and information
relevant to environmental concerns
bearing on the proposed action or its
anticipated impacts. The analysis
indicates that short-term adverse
environmental impacts, such as
construction effects, would be balanced
by long-term beneficial impacts.
Monitoring for Cultural and Biological
resources will be coordinated with the
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the
National Marine Fisheries Service, and
the New Jersey Historic Preservation
Office. All activity associated with the
PO 00000

project would be undertaken in a way
to minimize adverse impacts to
sensitive habitats and threatened and
endangered species, and adjacent
shorelines, as well as to minimize
cumulative impacts.
The Notice of Intent (NOI) was filed
in June of 2004. A Public Scoping
Meeting was held in October 2002 and
the results were collected in a Public
Scoping Document. Results from public
and agency scoping coordination are
addressed in the DEIS. Copies of the
DEIS are also available at the Jersey City
Free Public Library, Main Library and
Pavonia Branch Library.

The
purpose of this DEIS is to analyze
significant issues and information
relevant to environmental concerns
regarding the proposed reinforcement of
an existing stone revetment wall at
Montauk Point, NY. The U.S. Coast
Guard and the Montauk Historical
Society constructed the current
revetment wall between 1990 and 1992.
The project study was conducted under
the authority of resolution adopted by
the Committee on Environment and
Public Works of the U.S. Senate on May
15, 1991.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Resolved by the Committee on Environment
and Public Works of the United States
Senate, that the Secretary of the Army is
hereby requested to review the report of the
Chief of Engineers on Fire Island to Montauk
Point, New York, published as House
Document Number 86–425, 86th Congress,
2nd session, and other pertinent reports, to
determine whether modifications of the
recommendations contained therein are
advisable at the present time, with a view to
preserving, restoring, and protecting
Montauk Point and vicinity, including the
historic Montauk Lighthouse and associated
facilities, from erosion, environmental
degradation, and coastal storm damage.
The purpose of this DEIS is to analyze
significant issues and information
relevant to environmental concerns
bearing on the proposed action or its
anticipated impacts. The analysis
indicates that short-term adverse
environmental impacts, such as removal
of benthic invertebrates in the revetment
wall area, would be balanced by longterm beneficial impacts. Monitoring for
Cultural and Biological resources will
be coordinated with the U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service, the National Marine
Fisheries Service, and the New York
State Office of Parks, Recreation and
Historic Preservation. All activity
associated with the project would be
undertaken in a way to minimize
adverse impacts to sensitive habitats
and threatened and endangered species,
and adjacent shorelines, as well as to
minimize cumulative impacts.
A 404(b)(1) evaluation has been
prepared for the project and is included
in the DEIS. The proposed action and
alternatives do not represent a
significant threat of degradation to the
aquatic environment, and are in
compliance with the 404(b)(1)
Guidelines.
The Notice of Intent (NOI) was filed
in May of 2002. A Public Scoping
Meeting was held in November 2001
