Dear Tom:
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 report submitted by your firm, dated July 20th, 2022, and reviewed by staff from the
Division of Fish and Wildlife. Though Karner blue butterflies (Lycaeides melissa samuelis)
and Frosted elfins (Callophrys irus) occur in the vicinity, there is no suitable habitat on or
near these parcels for either species. 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,
,
