snippet: To satisfy requirements of Article 42 Executive Law and implementing regulations found at 19 NYCRR 602 which describe the identification, assessment and designations of Significant Coastal Fish and Wildlife Habitats under the State's Coastal Management Program. Original data were hand-drawn over DOT topographic quadrangle sections and filed with local governments. Each identified habitat has an accompanying text narrative describing the living resources values leading to designation as a Significant Coastal Fish and Wildlife; web links to these narratives are included in the attribute table of this dataset. For information on the SCFWH documentation contact Stephanie Wojtowicz at the Department of State at the address noted below. Digital data set (version 1.1) was previewed by NYS DEC Habitat Inventory Unit and subsequently corrected as per their recommendations. The original digital version of the SCFWHs, Version 1.2, has been replaced with this current version 2.0. Version 2.0 includes changes/updates to the Peconic estuary (2002), north shore of Long Island (2005), the south shore of Long Island (2008), and the Hudson River (2012). Scale: 1:24000
