Forest Preserve TRP Activity Log
The Department of Environmental Conservation exercises jurisdiction over approximately 3 million acres of Forest Preserve Land in New York State. Temporary Revokable Permits, typically referred to as TRPs, are issued by the Department to grant permission for the temporary use of these lands to individuals or organizations to carry out projects and activities which are appropriate to such land.
This log was created in an effort to inform the public of current TRP applications under review, as well as, list those activities (TRPs) previously approved by the Department. To view a description of a TRP activity simply click on the TRP reference number. Approved TRPs will remain listed until the permit expires.
TRP applications currently under review are noted in bold. The Department will accept public comments on these applications. Comments can be e-mailed to Preserve Log or mailed to TRP Comment, Forest Preserve Bureau, NYSDEC, 625 Broadway, Albany, NY 12233-4254. Please reference the TRP number in your correspondence.
