New York Codes, Rules and Regulations › Title 6 - DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION › Chapter X - DIVISION OF WATER RESOURCES › Subchapter B - CLASSES AND STANDARDS OF QUALITY AND PURITY ASSIGNED TO FRESH SURFACE AND TIDAL SALT WATERS › Article 2 - BLACK RIVER DRAINAGE BASIN › Part 805 - BLACK RIVER DRAINAGE BASIN › Section 805.2 - Definitions and conditions

Current through Register Vol. 46, No. 28, July 10, 2024
The several terms, words or phrases herein after
						mentioned shall be construed as follows:
(a)
Item No.
In table I, an item number is assigned to each
						specifically designated waters or portions thereof.
(b) Waters Index Number as appearing in table
					 I shall mean that number or abbreviation which has been assigned to any
					 specifically designated waters or portions thereof for the purpose of
					 identification.
(1) The numbering or index
					 system used to identify specific waters of New York State was adapted from that
					 used by the New York State Conservation Department in its biological survey
					 series of reports on watersheds of the State. The primary waters of a drainage
					 basin, such as rivers or large lakes are usually referred to by name or an
					 abbreviation. Tributaries of primary waters are consecutively numbered
					 progressing upstream from the mouth. Ponds and lakes are numbered consecutively
					 as they are encountered, such numbers being preceded by the letter P.
					 Tributaries of such lakes and ponds are numbered consecutively as they enter,
					 progressing clockwise around the lake or pond from its outlet or mouth. When
					 isolated lakes and ponds are referenced by a waters index number, it is merely
					 for convenience of their identification and location within a subdrainage
					 basin, and it is not necessarily indicative of their being tributary to any
					 waters to which no surface connection is shown on the reference maps.
(2) This system was applied to the basin
					 under consideration by the Conservation Department in its biological survey of
					 the Black River watershed and has been closely followed in connection with the
					 identification of the waters with the following exceptions: Some of the stream
					 numbers do not run consecutively due to the omission of streams originally
					 shown on older maps employed by the Conservation Department at the time of its
					 survey, but not shown on newer maps reproduced herein. Conversely, a few
					 streams not shown on the older maps but appearing on the newer maps are
					 designated by the letters a, b, c, etc.
(3) The system as applied to the
					 identification of waters in the Black River Drainage Basin may be illustrated
					 as follows:
Waters index
								  number
Name

0
Lake Ontario

0-19
Black River
The 19th tributary entering Lake Ontario numbering
								  clockwise from the mouth at Tibbetts Point.

0-19-31-32
Edick or Parker Creek
The 32nd tributary entering Deer River upstream
								  from its mouth.
0-19-31-32-2 and tribs.

The 2nd tributary entering Edick or Parker Creek
								  upstream from its mouth.
0-19-31-32-P 403
Parker Pond
The 403rd pond, lake or reservoir encountered in
								  the biological survey area of the Black River watershed and specifically
								  located in the drainage basin of Edick or Parker Creek.
