AMERICORPS WORKERS TEAM UP WITH DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AND SOIL AND WATER CONSERVATION DISTRICTS The New York City Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) has been employing four AmeriCorps members in its upstate watershed this year in a unique partnership with the Greene, Ulster and Delaware County Soil and Water Conservation Districts (SWCD) and a locally based youth employment agency - the Youth Resource Development Corporation. "This partnership benefits DEP and the Soil^^Water Conservation Districts, by providing additional staffing and developing local expertise in recognizing and evaluating stream problems,” said DEP Commissioner Joel A. Miele Sr., P.E. “Plus, it provides invaluable work experience to recent college graduates in the field of water resources.” The ten-month-long term of the AmeriCorps members’ assignment allows them time to work on all aspects of these stewardship projects, from data collection and analysis, to public meetings and fieldwork. The AmeriCorps members have been working since January in the offices of the three SWCD, as well as the DEP office in Kingston. They received hands-on technical training in stream surveying. Geographical Information System (GIS) mapping and biological monitoring. They are currently assisting the Districts and DEP Stream Management Program staff with surveying eroding stream banks and beds; prioritizing these areas for future restoration work; planting appropriate riparian vegetation after stream restoration work is complete (also known as bioengineering); and evaluating the condition of streams to improve and protect fish habitat, as well aS water quality.
