Dear Luigi Palleschi:
Thank you for requesting the comments of the Division for Historic Preservation of the Office of
Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation (OPRHP). We have reviewed the submitted
materials in accordance with the New York State Historic Preservation Act of 1980 (section
14.09 of the New York Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation Law). These comments are
those of the Division for Historic Preservation and relate only to Historic/Cultural resources.
They do not include potential environmental impacts to New York State Parkland that may be
involved in or near your project. Such impacts must be considered as part of the environmental
review of the project pursuant to the State Environmental Quality Review Act (New York
Environmental Conservation Law Article 8) and its implementing regulations (6NYCRR Part
617).
OPRHP has reviewed the Phase IA/IB Archaeological Survey Report entitled "Phase IA/IB
Cultural Resources Survey, Driscoll Road Mixed Use Development, City of Saratoga Springs,
Saratoga County New York" prepared by Birchwood Archaeological Services (November 2020;
21SR00131). No archaeological sites were identified by the survey. Therefore, it is the opinion
of the OPRHP that no properties, including archaeological and/or historic resources, listed in or
eligible for the New York State and National Registers of Historic Places will be impacted by this
project.
If you have any questions, I can be reached at Jessica.Schreyer@parks.ny.gov.
Sincerely,
Jessica Schreyer
