Whiteface Conditions

What I got from that article is that they’re been thinking about a reservoir since 1996 and now they have to wait for another UMP before they do anything else.
When will the next UMP process start?

ORDA might need to fork over some cash to a 3rd party to do their leg work.
ORDA might have to approve another resolution for the bucks to fund the plan of a new Unit Management Plan. ORDA have used the LA Group for some of their environmental stuff.

New York State Olympic Regional Development Authority (ORDA) - The LA Group Landscape Architecture and Engineering PC

For over four decades, The LA Group has worked with ORDA providing landscape architectural, civil engineering, and environmental permitting services for numerous projects at their Olympic venues and ski resorts.

Is there a fast track amendment process?

Huh?

It’d be easier, faster and much more environmentally friendly to let some local beavers build one.

This is good news. Obviously a long way to go and, yes, this could have, should have happened a long time ago, but it's good news.

But - will the Beavers be able to properly present their plan to the APA?

Ya must know the beavers don’t need any approval to build their dams without a UMP & SEQR review either, for that matter.
They’re good busy workers and cute little furry rascals too.
There are some huge beaver dams in the Adirondacks and elsewhere.
The fur trade has been around for awhile...
