ENB Region 8 Completed Applications 03/29/2006

The Department has received an application to extend the water supply and distribution system of Livingston County Water District #1 and to take for use therein a supply of water up to 500,000 gallons per day from the Authority's City of Rochester upland supply.  This project includes the installation of 9,500 linear feet of 12 inch transmission main to serve the Village and Town of Geneseo.  The proposed route of the water main has been revised and will now proceed south along the Conesus Lake Outlet, cross the Conesus Lake Outlet and proceed back lots to the intersection with NYS Route 256.  The Conesus Lake Outlet crossing will be completed by directional drilling.  The Department has made a tentative determination to approve this application.  As a tentative determination, the Department is seeking public comments prior to making a final decision about permit issuance.

The applicant proposes to modify an existing permit for a 5' x 40' open pile dock. The new dock would be a 6' x 50' floating dock secured to galvanized pipe. The dock is located within Freshwater Wetland RE-1 and the wetland adjacent area.

This notice serves as a correction to a notice previously published on March 16, 2006. The Town of Seneca Falls proposes to extend the water supply and distribution system of the district into its Seneca Falls Water Improvement Areas 1 & 2 and to take for use therein a supply of water estimated to average 26,600 gallons per day from the Village of Seneca Falls Cayuga Lake Source.  The project includes the installation of 86,600 linear feet of 8" water main and appurtenances to serve 124 single family residences and a milk refrigeration business.  The Town will not be acquiring the permissive service areas of the Village of Seneca Falls.  The file is available for review and comment at the NYSDEC Region 8 office.
