Summary
This bill amends New York's executive law to add six lakes (Little Whaley, Nuclear, Sunset, Sylvan, Whaley, and Willow lakes) to the state's official list of major inland lakes that are eligible for waterfront revitalization programs and funding. By designating these lakes as inland waterways, the surrounding communities will gain access to state resources and programs aimed at waterfront development, environmental protection, and economic revitalization. The addition of these lakes to the existing list of major inland waterways expands the geographic scope of New York's waterfront revitalization efforts to include these previously undesignated water bodies.
