Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System (PRAMS)

The Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System (PRAMS) is an ongoing, population-based risk factor surveillance system designed to identify and monitor selected maternal experiences and behaviors that occur before, during, and shortly after pregnancy, among a stratified sample of mothers delivering a live birth. PRAMS is a partnership with the CDC and presently exists in 50 jurisdictions, including 47 states, New York City, Washington, D.C., and Puerto Rico. In NYC, PRAMS participants are randomly selected from the City’s birth certificate records (approximately 2,100 participants per year).
Pregnancy-Associated Mortality

Maternal mortality is widely considered an indicator of overall population health and the status of women in the population. DOHMH uses multiple methods including death certificates, vital records linkage, medical examiner records, and hospital discharge data to identify all pregnancy-associated deaths (deaths that occur during pregnancy or within a year of the end of pregnancy) of New York state residents in NYC each year. DOHMH convenes the Maternal Mortality and Morbidity Review Committee (M3RC), a multidisciplinary and diverse group of 40 members that conducts an in-depth, expert review of each pregnancy-associated death of New York state residents occurring in NYC from both clinical and social determinants of health perspectives. The data in this table come from vital records and the M3RC review process. Data are not cross-classified on all variables: cause of death data are available by the relation to pregnancy (pregnancy-related, pregnancy-associated but not related, unable to determine), race/ethnicity and borough of residence data are each separately available for the total number of pregnancy-associated deaths and pregnancy-related deaths only.
Work Progress Program (WPP) for NYCHA Residents - Local Law 163

This datasets contains information about NYCHA residents who were employed by the Work Progress Program (WPP). WPP is a subsidized wage program designed to complement existing youth services by providing participating low-income young adults with work experience. Through WPP, HRA reimburses providers for wages paid to low-income young adults (aged 16-24) who have been placed in short-term jobs that typically last 12 weeks, with a special emphasis on serving opportunity or at-risk youth. WPP is not a stand-alone program. WPP provides wage reimbursements for nonprofits to provide subsidized jobs to their existing program participants. WPP supports providers that prioritize recruitment of NYCHA youth. NYCHA residency is self-reported in each providers intake and enrollment processes. Providers then report to Human Resources Administration (HRA) if someone is a NYC MAP resident or non-NYCHA MAP resident. The NYCHA MAP initiative includes 15 developments that were identified under the Mayoral Action Plan for Neighborhood Safety. For datasets related to other services provided to NYCHA residents, view the data collection “Services available to NYCHA Residents - Local Law 163”.

Wastewater Co-digestion and Biogas-to-grid Performance Indicators

This dataset contains monthly performance indicators for Wastewater Resource Recovery Facilities (WRRFs) that operate co-digestion and biogas-to-grid programs. The New York City Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) treats the solid component of the City’s wastewater using anaerobic digestion. This biological process produces biosolids, which can be used as fertilizer, and biogas, a renewable energy source. Co-digestion is the process of digesting food scraps alongside sewage sludge. The biogas generated is used on-site in boilers to heat the digesters and provide space heating. Excess biogas undergoes biogas-to-grid treatment, where it is purified and upgraded to renewable natural gas (RNG). Following purification, the RNG is exported to the natural gas pipeline as a direct replacement to fossil fuels. Excess biogas is flared during temporary system outages of the biogas cleaning system due to maintenance, operational constraints, or emergency events. The co-digestion and biogas-to-grid program provides a local recycling outlet for food scraps, transforming waste into renewable energy. Together, they reduce greenhouse gas emissions by replacing a portion of fossil natural gas with RNG and avoiding the methane emissions that would occur if the food scraps were disposed of in a landfill.

Walk to a Park Service Area for CEQR Open Space Assessment

This dataset builds on the Walk to A Park Service Area (https://data.cityofnewyork.us/Recreation/Walk-to-a-Park-Service-area/5vb5-y6cv) to provide a dataset that can be viewed as an on-line map or downloaded to support the preparation of an Open Space assessment pursuant to City Environment Quality Review Technical Manual. The data has been modified to ensure that if 50% or more of a tax lot is within a Walk to a Park Service area, then the entire lot is shown as served. New York City, as part of the OneNYC 2050 Building a Strong and Fair City plan, has put forth a goal of 85 percent of New York City residents living within a walking distance of a park by 2030. The Walk to a Park initiative focuses on increasing access to parks and open spaces, concentrating on areas of the city that are under-resourced and where residents are living further than a walk to a park. NYC Parks calculates the number of New Yorkers within walking distance of a park and reports on this as part of the Mayor’s Management Report. “Walking distance” is defined as a 1/4-mile or less for sites such as small playgrounds and sitting areas; or a 1/2-mile or less for larger parks that serve a wider region, typically over 6 acres or with access to recreation center. Certain properties in NYC Parks' portfolio, such as cemeteries, community gardens, or sites with no recreational equipment were not included in this analysis. Similarly, some publicly accessible parks and open-space amenities not under the jurisdiction of NYC Parks were included in this analysis, as they provide recreational value. This information is periodically updated and is only current as of the last publication date. The analysis is performed in part using secondary data. Data accuracy is limited by the scale and accuracy of the original sources. For more information about this analysis and the Walk to a Park Initiative, visit: https://www.nycgovparks.org/planning-and-building/planning/walk-to-a-park Data Dictionary: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/16VtACcFyKR_hYJNwrYYtFcvMVV9ybmALIWdvce7uJww/edit?usp=sharing
Walk to a Park Service Area

The Walk to a Park initiative focuses on increasing access to parks and open spaces, concentrating on areas of the city that are under-resourced and where residents are living further than a walk to a park. NYC Parks calculates the number of New Yorkers within walking distance of a park and reports on this as part of the Mayor’s Management Report. “Walking distance” is defined as a 1/4-mile or less for sites such as small playgrounds and sitting areas; or a 1/2-mile or less for larger parks that serve a wider region, typically over 8 acres or situated on the waterfront. Certain properties in NYC Parks' portfolio, such as cemeteries, community gardens, or sites with no recreational equipment were not included in this analysis. Similarly, some parks and open-space amenities not under the jurisdiction of NYC Parks were included in this analysis, as they provide recreational value. This dataset includes two ESRI shapefiles of access points, one for sites that get a 1/4-mile buffer and one for sites that get a 1/2-mile buffer. It also includes an ESRI shapefile of the combined polygon that is the output of this analysis. This polygon represents the total area within walking distance of a park. To generate the number of New Yorkers within that distance, the polygon is compared with data from the U.S. Census. This information is only current as of the publication date.

Waiting List Applications for Midtown Core Zone Vending License

A General Vendor license is required to sell, lease, or offer to sell or lease goods or services in a public place that is not a store. There is no limit on the number of licenses issued to veterans or their surviving spouses or domestic partners. The number of licenses issued to non-veterans is limited to 853. General Vendors who hold the Citywide Specialized vending license (Yellow) or Midtown Core Zone vending license (Blue) can vend in certain restricted areas and have priority to locations over other vendors. These licenses are for veterans with a service-related disability. The number of Blue licenses is limited to 105. To be placed on the Blue License waiting list, General Vendor must hold a Yellow License. DCWP collects this data to maintain a priority waiting list of applicants for Midtown Core Zone vending license (Blue). When the number of Blue licenses is below 105, the highest priority number on the waiting list is contacted to be offered the opportunity to apply for a Blue license. If the applicant does not receive a Blue license, the next person on the waiting list is offered the opportunity to apply for a Blue license.

VZV Speed Limits

On November 7, 2014, New York City’s default speed limit was changed from 30 mph to 25 mph. Unless otherwise signed, all streets in New York City are governed by this 25 mph speed limit. Driving at or below 25 MPH decreases stopping distance, gives drivers and pedestrians more time to see each other and react, and improves drivers’ ability to avoid crashes. Pedestrians struck by vehicles traveling at 25 MPH are half as likely to die as those struck at 30 MPH. If crashes do occur, the severity of injuries is reduced a lower speeds. The information shown here was compiled by the New York City Department of Transportation for governmental purposes. The information is updated as soon as reasonably practicable. The public is advised that speed limits are subject to temporary or permanent change and that posted signage must be observed for compliance with laws and regulations.
