Black Diamond Trail

Final Master Plan!

July 16, 2008

Dear BDTEN:

Good news released today! Notice of Completion of a Final Master Plan Environmental Impact Statement for the BDT!

This means that NYS Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation took the following action: Adoption and Implementation of a Master Plan for the Black Diamond Trail.

For the whole story, go to http://nysparks.com — look under “News and Publications.

Of course we don’t know yet what exactly this means for the construction timeline, which has been predicted repeatedly to be Spring 2009 (predicted by our Finger Lakes Parks Office) — but it’s a great step forward.

All of you who gave written or oral testimony during the SEQR hearing process are listed in the master plan document.

One step closer!

Jan
