- Scope and content:
-
This series contains reports and other official publications about issues affecting New York State. Federal, state, county and city governments and their agencies, including the Environmental Protection Agency or the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, published the majority of these reports. Universities and non-profit organizations issued a smaller number. For reports specifically written by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, please see Series 2, Subseries 3.
The publications discuss many environmental topics, such as hazardous waste or marine and coastal life. There are publications which analyze specific geographic areas, including the Long Island Sound, Lake George-Upper Hudson and the St. Lawrence River. As the Atlantic States Legal Foundation is based in Syracuse, there are a number of general reports and comprehensive planning documents about that city. Files also may contain supplemental materials related to the respective report such as an accompanying cover letter or news release.
