Reporting Dead Wildlife - NYSDEC
If professional assistance is unavailable or delayed, the following general guidance is offered:Be sure the animal is dead before touching or getting too close.Avoid direct contact with the carcass or carcass fluids.Be careful of teeth, claws, bone splinters, or porcupine quills.Prevent exposure to pets or farm animals.If packaging is necessary, enclose in multiple plastic bags and close bags securely.Small animals (squirrel or crow-sized and smaller) can be packaged simply by inserting one or both hands in a bag, grasping the carcass, and enfolding the bag around it.For larger animals, or for carcasses that have been compromised by extensive trauma, decay, or maggot infestation, insert the bag into a can/pail/bucket, then use a shovel to deposit the animal into the bag-lined container.If examination by the WHU is likely, place the bagged carcass in a cool location or on ice.Disinfect implements used in moving carcasses with a 10% bleach solution (see procedures below).Contact DEC's WHU directly at [email protected] if substantial delays are expected, or if you have additional questions.Carcass DisposalIf there is no reason for submission and you would like to dispose of a carcass for sanitary or esthetic reasons, four options exist:Burial in a location that will protect both surface water and ground water from contamination.Keep at least 200 feet away from wells used to supply drinking water.Be sure the carcass is covered with at least 2 feet of soil.Triple bag carcass and dispose of in a landfill.In rural or suburban areas move carcass to an un-mowed, brushy or wooded area at edge of your property for natural decomposition (may be unsuitable if close to neighbors). Area should be inaccessible to children or domestic animals.You can have a NWCO (Nuisance Wildlife Control Operator) Licensed Company come out for a fee and remove the wildlife for you.Disinfection ProceduresIn case of exposure or contamination:Skin: Wash skin thoroughly with hot water and soap.

Common conditions: War-related exposure, open burn pit exposure, airborne hazards exposure, Gulf War-related exposure, Gulf War Illness, Agent Orange exposure, radiation exposure, Camp Lejeune contaminated water exposure
We provide a quick screening to identify toxins you may have come in contact with during your military service. The screening takes 5 to 10 minutes. During the screening, we’ll ask you questions and document your responses in your medical record. Your answers will inform your VA health care team of any possible exposures. We’ll also connect you to more resources if you have any concerns.
Every Veteran enrolled in VA health care will receive an initial screening and a follow-up screening at least once every 5 years. Veterans who are not enrolled and who meet eligibility requirements will have an opportunity to enroll and receive the screening.
The screening will ask you if you think you were exposed to any of these hazards while serving:

Open burn pits and other airborne hazards
Gulf War-related exposures
Agent Orange
Radiation
Camp Lejeune contaminated water exposure
Other exposures

We’ll then give you information about any benefits, registry exams, and clinical resources you may need.
Ask about the screening at your next VA health care appointment.

Frequently Asked Questions | California Air Resources Board
Costs for the return/disposal of a tested abrasive sample will be included in the invoice for testing.What happens if the abrasive sample fails the test?permalinkThe certification test consists of two separate tests. The before-blasting sieve test and the after-blasting hydrometer test.The producer or vendor of an abrasive which fails the before-blasting sieve test has three options on how to proceed:They may choose to abandon further testing. In this case, they will only be charged for the sieve test and the return/disposal of the tested abrasive sample.They may choose to resubmit the abrasive sample for retesting. In this case, they will be charged for the original sieve test, all testing done on the resubmitted abrasive sample and the return/disposal of the both tested abrasive samples.They may choose to demonstrate that the abrasive meets twenty percent opacity when blasted in accordance with the Visible Emissions Evaluation (VEE) test method. They are responsible for arranging for the test to be conducted at a site in California. CARB will provide a representative to do the opacity reading. In this case they will be charged for the sieving and blasting test of the abrasive sample, and the return/disposal of the tested abrasive sample, as well as for the costs to do the opacity reading. Any additional costs to perform the VEE test are separate for CARB invoicing. It should also be noted that normal certification testing uses the entire abrasive sample provided to CARB. Additional abrasive must be shipped to the VEE test site.If the abrasive fails the after-blasting hydrometer test, it cannot be certified.   What is the cost to test an abrasive for certification?permalinkThe cost varies since the total cost for testing in a given period is divided by the number of abrasives submitted for certification during that period. Therefore, the cost may be lower if more abrasives are submitted or higher if less are submitted.
FEMA: Inundaciones
Si usted está mojado o parado sobre agua, no toque los equipos eléctricos.
Llene la bañera con agua en caso de que el agua se contamine o los servicios se interrumpan. Antes de llenar la tina, esterilícela con una solución diluida de blanqueador.

 No camine sobre agua en movimiento. Seis pulgadas de agua en movimiento pueden tumbarlo. Si tiene que caminar sobre el área inundada, camine donde el agua no se esté moviendo. Use un palo para verificar la firmeza del suelo frente a usted.

 No conduzca por áreas inundadas. Seis pulgadas de agua llegarán a la parte inferior de la mayoría de los automóviles de pasajeros, lo cual puede causar la pérdida de control y posiblemente que el motor se pare. Un pie de agua hará que muchos vehículos floten. Dos pies de agua arrastrarán casi todos los vehículos. Si las aguas suben alrededor de su automóvil, abandónelo y vaya a un terreno más alto, si puede hacerlo de una manera segura. Usted y su vehículo podrían ser arrastrados por la corriente cuando las aguas suban.

 Véase el capítulo titulado “Evacuación” para obtener información importante.
 

Si hay alguna posibilidad de que ocurra una inundación repentina, trasládese inmediatamente a un terreno más alto. No espere a que le den instrucciones.

 Qué hacer después de una inundación

 Evite el contacto con las aguas de la inundación.
Simple Solutions to Help Reduce Air Pollution | California Air Resources Board
If less gasoline, natural gas and electricity (power plants burn fossil fuels to generate electricity) are used, not only do your bills decrease but less pollutants are emitted.There are also many products in the home, garden and garage that emit smog-forming chemicals that pollute the air when used. Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and particulate matter (PM) contained in these products penetrate deep into the lungs and can trigger asthma attacks or worsen respiratory illnesses. The suggestions below will help reduce exposure in your home:Turn the lights off when you leave a room.Replace energy-hungry incandescent lights with compact fluorescent light bulbs.Ask your energy supplier for a home audit and inquire about alternative energy solutions like solar or wind.Opt for a fan instead of air conditioning.Use a programmable thermostat and set it to 78°F in the summer and 68°F in the winter.Install low- ow shower heads.Recycle paper, plastic, metals and organic materials.Use an EPA-approved wood burning stove or replace insert.Don’t use your wood stove or replace on days with unhealthy air.Don’t heat your home with a gas stove.Use a surge protector for multiple appliances and turn it off when products are not in use.Add insulation to your home.Wash laundry in cold water and line dry.When ready to replace, look for energy star appliances.Use a propane or natural gas barbecue rather than a charcoal one.Microwave or use a toaster oven for small meals.Have your gas appliances and heater regularly inspected and maintained.Use washable dishes, utensils and fabric napkins rather than disposable dinnerware.Choose products that use recycled materials.Eat locally, shop at farmers markets and buy organic products.Buy products from sustainable sources such as bamboo and hemp.Use durable reusable grocery bags and keep them in your car so you’re never caught off guard.Paint with a brush instead of a sprayer.Store all solvents in airtight containers.Use an electric or push lawn mower.Use a rake or broom instead of a leaf blower.Use water-based cleaning products that are labeled ‘zero VOC’.Insulate your water heater and any accessible hot water pipes.Eliminate use of toxic chemicals at home; opt for natural substitutes.Plant a tree!

2001 Budget Analysis:State Water Resources 
This legislation should require SWRCB to establish, in regulation, a time schedule for completing all TMDLs from the 1998 list of impaired water
bodies.
We discuss opportunities for improvements and the need for a long-term work plan in the sections that follow.
Efficiencies and Other Improvements Possible 
We find that a number of improvements can be implemented to make the Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) program more effective and timely, and
reduce costs. We recommend the enactment of legislation to (1) require greater policy direction from the State Water Resources Control Board to the
regional water quality control boards and (2) streamline the TMDL approval process. We also recommend the adoption of budget bill language earmarking
funds to streamline the boards' contracting process. Finally, we recommend the adoption of supplemental report language to require (1) an evaluation of
the effectiveness of certain interagency agreements and (2) a status report on the board's implementation of organizational improvements. 
Our review finds that a number of operational improvements can be made to make the program more effective and efficient. Some of these improvements
should increase the pace of TMDL development and reduce costs. As discussed later, the state's average costs to develop a TMDL are substantially higher than
other states' costs.
Provide Expanded Policy Direction. We find that the TMDL process would be significantly improved if the criteria to be used by the regional boards in
making various TMDL-related decisions were more clearly articulated by SWRCB. Based on discussions with the regulated community, there is a general
perception that regional board decisions are being made arbitrarily. If this perception is not addressed, further delays and costs in TMDL development are likely
because TMDL decisions are more likely to be challenged in court.
While some policy guidance from SWRCB currently exists, including broad criteria regarding the listing of impaired water bodies, we think that SWRCB
should expand its policy guidance. Specifically, we think that SWRCB policy should address:

Data Standards. There is a need for direction regarding how much and what type and quality of data are required for various decisions, such as the (1) listing
Regulatory Agenda - NYSDEC
E-mail:  [email protected]6 NYCRR Parts 609, and 700 – 706 Water Quality Standards (Triennial Review Rulemakings). Revisions would add/revise ambient water quality standards, standard-setting procedures, implementation procedures, and other regulatory provisions.  This rulemaking may require a Regulatory Flexibility Analysis for Small Businesses and Local Governments and a Rural Area Flexibility Analysis. Contact: Stephanie June, New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, 625 Broadway, Albany, NY 12233-3502. Telephone 518-402-9255.  E-mail: [email protected]. 6 NYCRR Part 750 - State Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (SPDES) Permits.  Annual revisions are necessary to incorporate new federal criteria and standards.  This rulemaking may require a Regulatory Flexibility Analysis for Small Businesses and Local Governments and a Rural Area Flexibility Analysis.  Contact: Karen Stainbrook, New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, 625 Broadway, Albany, NY 12233-3508. Telephone: 518-402-8086. E-mail: [email protected].6NYCRR 750-1.26 – Revisions are necessary to add a new section to 6 NYCRR 750 to detail procedural requirements for adjudicatory proceedings applicable to SPDES permits where there are no other permits subject to an adjudicatory proceeding under subdivision 624.2.  This regulatory change is being made in conjunction with revisions to 6 NYCRR 624, Permit Hearing Procedures.  6 NYCRR 750-1.26 will stay contested and inseverable conditions of a new SPDES permit that will enhance administrative efficiency and ensure consistency in permit proceedings. These changes are necessary to: 1) assure that the department maintains an approved SPDES program at least as stringent as the federal program and 2) effectuate water quality protection by staying the effect only of certain conditions in new SPDES permits that will be adjudicated pursuant to 6 NYCRR 624. This rulemaking may require a Regulatory Flexibility Analysis for Small Businesses and Local Governments and a Rural Area Flexibility Analysis.  Contact: Edward Hampston, 625 Broadway, Albany, NY 12233-3506.  Telephone: 518-402-8177.
The 2023-24 California Spending Plan: Resources and Environmental Protection
The budget also authorizes $1.2 million in new
ongoing spending from HWCA to support an analysis of the current
shortfalls and to increase various administrative activities to better
ensure that entities are paying the amounts owed.
Supports Additional Cleanup Activities at Exide
Parkways. The budget includes $40.4 million in 2023‑24 and
$26.9 million in 2024‑25 from the Lead-Acid Battery Cleanup Fund to
clean up 6,425 parkways surrounding the former Exide Technologies
facility. (Parkways are narrow strips of land that are found between
sidewalks and curbs.) The parkways identified for cleanup have been
found to have lead-contaminated soil. These cleanup activities are part
of a larger multiyear remediation project related to the Exide
facility.
