Improvements. This alternative would
also achieve the flood protection
objectives of the Proposed Action, but
would provide additional park
amenities and neighborhood
connections including a meandering
bikeway and walkway, redesign of
several pedestrian bridges, and more
extensive landscaped features in East
River Park. It would also include the
reconstruction of Stuyvesant Cove Park.
Key elements of this alternative include
enhancing the pedestrian bridges at
Delancey, East 6th, and East 10th
Streets.
Alternatives will continue to be
developed and refined during the EIS
scoping process with input and
consultation from local, state, and
federal agencies that are either involved,
interested, or cooperating in this
environmental review process. These
agencies include, but are not limited to,
the New York City Departments of
Transportation and Environmental
Protection, the New York State
Departments of Transportation and
Environmental Conservation, and the
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers along
with input provided by non-agency
stakeholders and the general public. It is
expected that each of the alternatives
selected for analysis in the Draft EIS
will include the essential flood
protection measures described above, in
differing configurations, and with
alternative approaches to upland
drainage, providing park enhancements
and neighborhood connectivity. Each
alternative will also incorporate
approaches for managing upland
drainage, including infrastructure
improvements that would address
combined sanitary and stormwater
drainage and maintain sewer system
operations during a storm event.

Elements Common to Proposed Action
Alternatives
Each of the Proposed Action
alternatives would also require water
main, sewer, and utility relocations and
drainage improvements, an operations
and maintenance plan, utility and
lighting plans, connections to other
flood protection structures (e.g., the
protection systems at the Con Edison
East River Generating Facility and the
United States Department of Veterans
Affairs Medical Center on East 23rd
Street), and the repair and replacement
of parkland and streets affected by
construction. Construction activities
may also require improvements to
waterfront structures, temporary
mooring facilities, and limited dredging
along the East River to provide barge
access during construction.

Need for the EIS
The Proposed Action described above
has the potential to significantly affect
the quality of the environment and an
EIS will therefore be prepared in
accordance with the requirements of
NEPA, SEQRA, and CEQR. Responses to
this notice will be used to (1) determine
significant environmental issues; (2)
assist in developing a range of
alternatives to be considered; (3)
identify issues that the EIS should
address; and (4) identify agencies and
other parties that will participate in the
EIS process and the basis for their
involvement.
Scoping
A joint NEPA/SEQRA/CEQR public
scoping meeting on the Draft Scope of
Work to prepare the Draft EIS will be
held on December 3, 2015 at 7:00 p.m.
at Bard High School Early College, 525
East Houston Street, New York, NY
10002. As noted above, the Draft Scope
of Work is available online at: https://
www.nyc.gov/html/cdbg/html/home/
home.shtml. The public scoping
meeting location will be accessible to
the mobility-impaired. Interpreter
services will be available for the hearing
or visually impaired upon advance
request. The EIS public scoping meeting
will provide an opportunity for the
public to learn more about the Proposed
Action and provide input to the
environmental review process. At the
meeting, an overview of the Proposed
Action and its alternatives will be
presented and members of the public
will be invited to comment on the Draft
Scope of Work, including the
methodologies to be used in developing
the environmental analyses in the EIS.
Written comments and testimony
concerning the Draft Scope of Work will
be accepted at this meeting. In
accordance with 40 CFR 1501.7, affected
Federal, State, and local agencies, any
affected Indian tribes, and other
interested parties will be sent a scoping
notice. In accordance with 24 CFR
58.59, the scoping meeting will be
preceded by a notice of public meeting
published in the local news media at
least 15 days before the hearing date.
Probable Environmental Effects
The EIS will evaluate potential effects
from the Proposed Action on: Land Use,
Zoning, and Public Policy;
Socioeconomic Conditions;
Environmental Justice; Open Space;
Historic and Cultural Resources; Urban
Design and Visual Resources; Natural
Resources; Hazardous Materials; Water
and Sewer Infrastructure;
Transportation; Greenhouse Gases and

Form Number: N/A.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use:

may receive mortgage insurance benefits
upon assignment of mortgages to HUD.
In connection with the assignment, legal
documents (e.g., mortgage, mortgage
note, security agreement, title insurance
policiy) must be submitted to the
Department. The instructions contained
in the Legal Instructions Concerning
Applications for Full Insurance
Benefits—Assigment of Multifamily

HUD proposes to make the following
revisions to this document:
Under Part B, Submissions of Legal
Documents after Recordation of
Assignment, HUD proposes to add a
new paragraphs 12 and 13 to read as
follows:
12. Flood Insurance. If all or part of the
building(s) included within the project are in
a Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA),
acceptable proof of flood insurance coverage.
This can be either the original flood
insurance policy covering the building(s), a
copy of the Flood Insurance Application and
premium payment, a copy of the declarations
page, or evidence of flood insurance,
comprising flood insurance coverage equal to
the lesser of the insurable value of the
building(s) or the maximum amount of
coverage available for that type of property
under the National Flood Insurance Program
(‘‘NFIP’’) (see www.fema.gov/business/nfip/
manual.shtm). The flood insurance should
name the mortgagee and the Secretary of
Housing and Urban Development of
Washington, DC, his/her successors and
assigns as mortgagee and loss payee
respectively. The flood insurance must be in
effect at least through 11:59 p.m. on the date
on which the assignment of mortgage is
recorded. In addition, if the mortgagee
submits evidence of flood insurance, the
mortgagee must submit an affidavit that
contains the following language and is
otherwise acceptable to HUD:
[Insert name of the mortgagee] affirms
under penalty of law that the [describe flood
insurance policy by name of insurance
company or producer and policy number]
described in the [Evidence of Insurance or

of Housing and Urban Development, of
Washington, DC, his/her successors and
assigns, 451 Seventh Street SW., Room 9230,
Washington, DC 20410–0500 as loss payee as
of [insert the date of assignment].
The effective date of this endorsement and
mortgagee’s affidavit, if applicable, should be
the date the assignment of mortgage to the
Secretary is filed for record. The evidence of
flood insurance is acceptable if it contains
language to the effect that it is for
informational purposes only and does not
confer rights upon the holder of the policy
only if accompanied by the mortgagee’s
affidavit. A Certificate of Insurance is not
acceptable.
13. An assignment of the mortgagee’s
interest in the flood insurance policy should
state the following:
The interest of llll, as the Mortgagee
under Policy No. lllli issued by lll
li is hereby assigned to the Secretary of
Housing and Urban Development of
Washington, DC, his/her successors and
assigns. Date: lll
