BILL NUMBER:S4334 TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the executive law, in relation to allowing soil and water conservation districts, acting in cooperation with a local government, to be eligible applicants for the local waterfront revitalization grant program PURPOSE: To allow soil and water conservation districts to be eligible applicants for the local waterfront revitalization grant program. SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS: Section 1 of the bill amends Subdivisions 1, 2, 3, the opening paragraph and paragraph g of subdivision 4, the opening paragraph and paragraph h of subdivision 5 and subdivisions 7, 9, and 10 of section 915 of the Executive Law, subdivision 1 as amended by Chapter 454 of the Laws of 2001 and subdivision 2 and the opening paragraph of subdivision 5 as amended by Chapter 842 of the Laws of 1981, subdivision 3, the opening paragraph and paragraph g of subdivision 4, paragraph h of subdivision 5 and subdivisions 7, and 10, as added by Chapter 840 of the Laws of 1981 to include soil and water conservation districts. Section 2 of the bill amends the opening paragraph of section 916 of
the Executive Law, as amended by Chapter 366 of the Laws of 1986, to include Soil and water conservation districts. Section 3 of the bill amends section 917 of the Executive Law, as added by Chapter 840 of the Laws of 1981, to include soil and water conservation districts. Section 4 of the bill amends paragraphs a and b of subdivision 1 and subdivision 2 of section 918 of the Executive, as added by Chapter 840 of the Laws of 1981, to include soil and water conservation districts. Section 5 of the bill amends subdivision 3 of section 920 of the Executive Law, as added by Chapter 840 of the Laws of 1981, to include soil and water conservation districts. Section 6 of the bill provides for an immediate effective date. JUSTIFICATION: Currently, only municipalities are eligible applicants while the Local Waterfront Revitalization Program (LWRP) has many categories which fall within the scope of Soil and Water Conservation Districts (SWCDs). While SWCDs are working with Department of state (DOS) on this grant program, they must go through the municipalities, which slows down implementation of projects and increases costs.Also, having SWCDs as eligible applicants would allow DOS to work with one entity instead of multiple municipalities. LEGISLATIVE HISTORY: 2011/2012: S.2838 PASSED SENATE FISCAL IMPLICATIONS: None. EFFECTIVE DATE: Immediately.
