NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
Hudson River Park Trust
REVISED Notice of Public Hearing and Public Review and Comment Period Regarding Both a Proposed Lease Between Hudson River Park Trust and Pier55, Inc. and a Proposed Amendment to Hudson River Park’s General Project Plan
Pursuant to the Hudson River Park Act, the Hudson River Park Trust (“Trust”) hereby gives notice of a public hearing to address (i) a proposed 20-year Lease, with an option to renew for a maximum 30-year Lease, between the Trust and Pier55, Inc., a not-for-profit corporation, for the redevelopment of Pier 54 and subsequent operation of a public open park space with cultural programming; and (ii) an amendment to the Hudson River Park General Project Plan originally adopted on July 16, 1998 reflecting the proposed Pier 54 redevelopment. This Notice amends the prior notice posted on November 17, 2014. Specifically, this Notice amends only (i) the hearing date, which has been moved to January 12, 2015 to allow more time for public review; and (ii) the deadline for public comments, which has been extended to January 23, 2015.
Date and Time: January 12, 2015, 5:30 P.M. - 8:00 P.M. (Note: This is a new date. There will not be a hearing on December 17, 2014)
Place: Eisner and Lubin Auditorium, New York University Kimmel Center, 60 Washington Square South, 4th Floor, PHOTO IDENTIFICATION IS REQURED TO ENTER THE FACILITY
Purpose: To allow the public to review and comment on proposed significant plans and proposed actions within the Park pursuant to the Hudson River Park Act and Environmental Assessment Statement regarding the potential environmental impacts of the proposed action.
The Trust is providing the public an opportunity to review and comment on a proposed lease between the Trust and Pier55, Inc., a not-for-profit corporation. The proposed Lease term is 20 years, with an option to extend for ten more years, and obligates Pier55, Inc. to commit substantial funding for the reconstruction of Pier 54 (to be located between the existing Pier 54 footprint and the Pier 56 pile field) and for the on-going operation and maintenance of the completed pier. The Lease contemplates that Pier55, Inc. would redevelop the new pier as public open park space that would also serve as a cultural events space within the Park. Pier55, Inc. would fund the operations of cultural events on the new pier, with a majority of events each year to be available to the public on a free or low cost basis. The permitted events that Pier55, Inc. would fund and produce include: public performances of vocal, instrumental and other music; dramatic works, opera, theater and public readings of prose or poetry; public talks by academics, writers and public figures; performance art; dance performances; art displays, installations and exhibitions; films; and other similar events. Pier55, Inc. would also be allowed to conduct fundraising events and operate limited concessions on the pier. The Trust will also use the new pier for its programming and events. The new pier will be open and accessible to the public consistent with overall Park’s operating hours, with closures limited to the extent reasonably necessary for safety or to accommodate permitted events. The proposed Lease also includes other information on security, maintenance and other operational requirements and obligations of both Pier55, Inc. and the Trust.
The proposed Lease would require a minimum design and construction financial commitment by Pier55 Inc. of over one hundred million dollars ($100,000,000). In addition, Pier55, Inc. will be responsible for all costs associated with cultural programming, and for the cost of maintaining the landscape and other pier amenities. The Lease provides that, after ten years, Pier55, Inc. may either continue to operate and maintain the pier for the remainder of the Lease term, or make a contribution to support its future maintenance. The Trust has committed to expend seventeen million dollars ($17,000,000) in City capital funds, and five hundred thousand dollars ($500,000) in other public monies, towards Pier 54’s redevelopment, and to be responsible for maintaining the support piles and other structural components of the pier.
Additionally, the 1998 Hudson River Park General Project Plan will be amended to reflect the current plans for the redevelopment of Pier 54.
A copy of the proposed Lease and Amendment to the General Project Plan Amendment can be found on the Trust’s website at www.hudsonriverpark.org. A copy of a draft of the Environmental Assessment Statement for the proposed project can also be found on the Trust’s website.
In addition to the public hearing, the public will have an opportunity to provide written comments to the Trust. The public comment period extends from November 17, 2014 to January 23, 2015. Comments may be sent by regular mail to William Heinzen, Esq., Hudson River Park Trust, Pier 40, 2nd Fl., 353 West St., New York, NY 10014 or by email to Pier54comments@hrpt.ny.gov. The public hearing is being held in compliance with the requirements of the Hudson River Park Act regarding significant actions.

PUBLIC NOTICE
Department of State Notice of Review for the New York City Draft Local Waterfront Revitalization Program Amendment
In accordance with the New York State Waterfront Revitalization of Coastal Areas and Inland Waterways Act and the New York State Coastal Management Program, New York City is proposing an amendment to its Local Waterfront Revitalization Program (LWRP) approved by the New York State Secretary of State on May 28, 2002, and incorporated into the State Coastal Management Program on August 28, 2002. The New York City LWRP, also known as the New Waterfront Revitalization Program (WRP), has a format distinct from other local waterfront revitalization programs, reflecting the unique character of the City’s approximately 520 miles of natural, public, working, and redeveloping waterfront, and the waterways between the five boroughs, including New York Harbor, the Hudson, Bronx, Harlem and East Rivers, the Arthur Kill and Kill Van Kull and all their many tributaries, as well as the Atlantic Ocean.
The City recently completed extensive planning and regulatory efforts to encourage the development of maritime industry while ensuring the protection of the environment, promote recreation both at the shoreline and in the water, provide design principles that consider the effects of climate change and sea level rise, and foster the preservation and restoration of ecologically significant sites, which produced an updated Comprehensive Waterfront Plan, Vision 2020: New York City Comprehensive Waterfront Plan (CWP). The New York City LWRP is being amended to advance the goals and priorities of Vision 2020.
The New York City LWRP amendment, while preserving the general format of the approved program, includes a new introduction and a thoroughly revised Part I that contains: a comprehensive program description explaining the regulatory and planning context of the program; a description of the proposed Coastal Zone boundary including modifications based on the interim floodplain and flood hazard areas estimated by FEMA after Superstorm Sandy; a thorough description of the applicable standards and processes for the review of local, State, and federal activities for consistency with the program; and, a discussion of local regulations that are related to the implementation of the program. Part II of the proposed amendment presents modifications to the policies of the approved program. Part III of the proposed amendment includes revised sectional maps delineating the boundaries of New York City's Coastal Zone, as well as maps of the special areas described in the program. The appendices included in the amended WRP contain: a list of State actions and programs which should be undertaken in a manner consistent with the program; a list of federal activities affecting land and water uses and natural resources in the coastal zone of New York State; a descriptive list of State and federal agency actions that are necessary for further implementation of this program; local and State regulations related to the implementation of the WRP; and, guidelines for notification and review of State and federal agency actions.
To approve the draft amendment to the New York City LWRP, pursuant to Article 42 of the NYS Executive Law, it is required that potentially affected federal, State, and local agencies be consulted to assure that the proposed modifications to the approved program do not conflict with existing policies and programs. The draft of the proposed amendment to the New York City LWRP was accepted by the New York State Department of State as complete and is now available online, at http://www.dos.ny.gov/opd/programs/WFRevitalization/LWRP_draft.html.
Comments on the draft amendment are due by February 20, 2015. At the close of the required review period, the Department of State will coordinate responses to comments received with New York City, and modifications to the LWRP amendment will be made, as needed. Following approval by the Secretary of State, pursuant to 15 CFR 923.84(b), the New York State Department of State will request incorporation of the LWRP amendment into the State’s Coastal Management Program by the federal Office for Coastal Management (OCM), as a Routine Program Change.
Comments on the draft New York City LWRP amendment should be submitted by February 20, 2015, to Renee Parsons, Department of State, Office of Planning and Development, 99 Washington Ave., Suite 1010, Albany, NY 12231-0001, (518) 473-2461.
