* §  824.  Enforcement.  1. Where it appears that a contractor cannot, after a good faith effort, meet the workforce  participation  goals  set forth  in  a  particular state contract, a contractor may file a written application with the contracting state agency requesting  a  partial  or total  waiver  of  such  requirements.  Such request shall set forth the reasons  for  such  contractor's  inability  to   meet   the   workforce participation goal, specifically describe the reasons for any deviations from  the  anticipated  workforce  participation  goal  set forth in the contractor's bid or proposal leading to the award of the state contract, and describe the efforts by the contractor  and  any  subcontractors  to achieve the maximum feasible participation of minority group members and women  in  the  performance of the work of the state contract. Where the contractor's inability to achieve the workforce participation goal on  a state   contract   is  attributable  to  the  failure  of  one  or  more subcontractors to  make  good  faith  efforts  to  achieve  the  maximum feasible  participation  of  minority  group  members  and  women in the performance of the work of the  state  contract,  the  contractor  shall identify  such  subcontractor or subcontractors to the contracting state agency.   2. A state agency shall grant a request  for  a  waiver  of  workforce participation goals on a state contract where:  (a)   The   contractor   demonstrates  that  the  contractor  and  its subcontractors  made  good  faith  efforts  to  achieve  the   workforce participation goal on the state contract, and that insufficient minority group  members  or  women  were  available  in  the construction trades, professions, and occupations required to perform the work of  the  state contract; or  (b)  The  contractor contractually required each of its subcontractors to  make  a  good  faith  effort  to  achieve   the   maximum   feasible participation  of minority group members and women in the performance of the subcontracted  work,  periodically  monitored  such  subcontractors' deployment of minority group members and women in the performance of the subcontracted  work,  provided  notice  to  such  subcontractors  of any deficiencies in their deployment of minority group members and women  in the  performance  of  such subcontracted work, and could not achieve the workforce participation  goal  for  one  or  more  construction  trades, professions,  or  occupations  without  the  good  faith efforts of such subcontractors.   * NB Repealed December 31, 2024

2021 New York Laws EXC - Executive Article 42 - Waterfront Revitalization of Coastal Areas and Inland Waterways 910 - Legislative Findings.

§ 910. Legislative  findings.  The  legislature  hereby finds that New   York state's coastal area and inland waterways are unique with a variety   of natural, recreational, industrial, commercial, ecological,  cultural,   aesthetic and energy resources of statewide and national significance.The  resources  of  the state's coastal areas and inland waterways are   increasingly subject to the pressures of population growth and  economic   development,   which   include   requirements  for  industry,  commerce,   residential development, recreation and for the  production  of  energy.   These  competing  demands  result in the loss of living marine resources   and wildlife, the diminution of open  space  areas,  shoreline  erosion,   permanent,  adverse changes to ecological systems and a loss of economic   opportunities.The social and economic well-being and  the  general  welfare  of  the   people  of  the  state  are  critically dependent upon the preservation,   enhancement, protection, development and use of the natural and man-made   resources of the state's coastal area and inland waterways.The legislature further finds that it is in the interest of the people   of the state that coordinated and comprehensive policy and planning  for   preservation,  enhancement,  protection,  development  and  use  of  the   state's coastal and inland waterway resources take place to  insure  the   proper balance between natural resources and the need to accommodate the   needs of population growth and economic development.
