§  1334. Cooperation and assistance of other agencies. In the interest
  of economy and to promote coordination of authority projects with state,
  local, county and regional plans and also to carry out the objective  of
  full   participation   of   all   agencies   in  the  development  of  a
  transportation system and facilities to meet the objectives of this act,
  the authority shall request and  use  existing  studies,  master  plans,
  surveys,  data  and other materials completed by or under development by
  any state agency or any municipality or  political  subdivision  of  the
  state.   The  authority  shall  consult  with  and  cooperate  with  the
  commissioner  and  with  planning  authorities  in  the  areas  of   its
  operations  and shall utilize local or state planning. When a project is
  contemplated by the authority, the authority shall submit a  preliminary
  prospectus  thereof to the commissioner for review and comment and shall
  consider the report of the commissioner in  formulating  detailed  plans
  for such project. When a project is contemplated by the authority within
  the  jurisdiction  of  any county planning board or the central New York
  regional planning and development board, the authority shall prepare and
  submit to  such  planning  board  or  boards  a  preliminary  prospectus
  thereof,  describing  the  purpose,  general location, and nature of the
  project contemplated, with such further data relative thereto  that  the
  authority shall consider pertinent. Within sixty days of receipt of such
  prospectus such planning board or boards shall prepare a report thereon,
  commenting  on  its  conformity  or  lack of conformity with any related
  official plan of the state or region or  any  official  planning  agency
  within  the  region. Such report shall be considered by the authority in
  formulating detailed plans for such a project. At  the  request  of  the
  authority,  each  such  agency,  municipality  or  subdivision  which is
  engaged in highway or other transportation activities or in land use  or
  development  planning, or which is charged with the duty of providing or
  regulating any transportation facility or any other public facility,  is
  further  authorized  to provide the authority with information regarding
  its plans and programs affecting the transportation district so that the
  authority may have available to  it  current  information  with  respect
  thereto.  The officers and personnel of such agencies, municipalities or
  subdivisions, and of any other government or agency whatever, may  serve
  at  the  request  of  the authority upon such advisory committees as the
  authority shall determine to create and such officers and personnel  may
  serve  upon  such  committees without forfeiture of office or employment
  and with no loss or diminution in the compensation, status,  rights  and
  privileges which they otherwise enjoy.
