Re: 313 Jefferson Street
Parcel ID #: 178.52-2-19.113
City of Saratoga Springs, Saratoga County
Dear Ms. Yasenchak,
The Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) has determined that your
proposal to develop the above-described parcel in the City of Saratoga Springs is not likely
to result in the take of threatened or endangered species. This determination is based on
the information submitted by Engineering America and reviewed by staff from the Division of
Fish and Wildlife. Though Karner blue butterflies (Plebejus melissa samuelis) and frosted
elfins (Callophrys irus) were known to occur near your project location, the subject parcel
does not contain suitable habitat for either species and the DEC does not anticipate your
proposed action to result in a take. Therefore, no permit is required at this time pursuant to
the implementing regulations (6NYCRR Part 182) of the New York State Endangered
Species Act (Article 11-0535).
Be advised that any changes in location, expansion of the footprint of the project,
modifications of the scope, or changes in the timing of proposed actions that are not
identified in the submission referenced above may trigger DEC authorization. Please
reinitiate contact with this office if such activities are contemplated.
Please note that this letter does not relieve you of the responsibility of obtaining any
necessary permits or approvals from other agencies or local municipalities.
Sincerely,
a C� .
Beth Magee
Regional Deputy Permit Administrator
