2017 Management Plan Update
_34.jpg)
The 1988 Legislation (NYS Environmental Conservation Law, Article 46) which established the Albany Pine Bush Preserve and the Albany Pine Bush Preserve Commission, requires that the Preserve Management Plan be reviewed and, if necessary, updated every five years. The 2010 Management Plan/FEIS consolidates and updates all earlier Preserve management plans. This document incorporates new data and experience gained by the Commission and further refines information in the former plans with the best currently available information; appendices to the Plan include a: Pine Barrens Viability Assessment, Fire Management Plan, Karner Blue Butterfly Recovery Plan, Invasive Species Management Plan, Education and Outreach Plan, and Recreation Plan.
