Draft Anticipated Land Usages Figure

FMC Corporation is implementing a Corrective Measures Study Work Plan for Suspected Air Deposition and Culvert 105 Study Areas, which has been approved by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC) and the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA), in consultation with the New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH).

In the CMS, corrective measures alternatives will be developed and evaluated. One of the criteria to be considered when developing these corrective measures alternatives is site-specific information on current and reasonably anticipated future land uses. Reasonably anticipated future land use assumptions will allow the CMS and associated risk assessments to be focused on developing practicable and cost effective corrective measures alternatives.

The CMS Work Plan states that reasonably anticipated future land uses will be identified in consultation with the community and that a Draft Reasonably Anticipated Future Land Usages Map would be developed for review and comment by the community and Agencies. Accordingly, the Figure 1, Draft Reasonably Anticipated Future Land Usages Map, has been prepared to identify proposed reasonably anticipated future land uses for the Middleport area. This map includes properties in the Middleport area south of Pearson and Stone Roads, as well as those in the current CMS Suspected Air Deposition and Culvert 105 study areas, and has been submitted to the Agencies as a draft for their review and comment.

Residents were encouraged to review Draft Figure 1 here showing the proposed reasonably anticipated future land uses and to provide comments on a survey. The results of the responses collected online can be seen here.
