N.Y.; July 29, 2020. On Thursday, August 20, 2020, New York Sea Grant will offer a
free, 12-1 PM ET, webinar with Scott Steinschneider, Ph.D., of the
Cornell University Department of Biological and Environmental
Engineering, detailing a parcel-level flood forecast risk management
tool he has developed for use by communities along Lake Ontario and its
embayments. The webinar will be presented via Zoom: <span style="color: blue;">www.nyseagrant.org</span> and Facebook Live: <span style="color: blue;"><a href="https://www.facebook.com/nyseagrant" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;">www.facebook.com/nyseagrant</span>.</a></span><br /><br /><span style="background-color: blue;"><span style="color: blue;"></span><span style="color: blue;"></span></span>Lake
Ontario has experienced two record-setting floods over the course of
three years: 2017-2019. With funding from New York Sea Grant,
Steinschneider has developed an inundation prediction model for rapid
flood forecasting at weekly to monthly timescales.<br /><br />The model was
developed with input from stakeholders that included reports and photos
of the 2017 Lake Ontario flood damage to manmade structures and natural
features; shoreline, bluff and dune erosion; septic and well impact; and
power outages.<br /><br />"The goal of this prediction tool is to provide
community planners and property owners with a parcel-level assessment of
future flood risk to enhance local short-term preparedness planning and
to help inform short-term emergency response," Steinschneider said.<br /><br />"Dr.
Steinschneider's flodd risk prediction model is part of New York Sea
Grant's ongoing resiliency-building effort to create science-based
resources to help Great Lakes shoreline stakeholders better prepare and
respond to extreme weather, high water, and intense wave action from
storm events," said New York Sea Grant Associate Director Katherine
Bunting-Howarth, Ph.D., J.D., assistant director of Cornell Cooperative
Extension.<br /><br />Other New York Sea Grant flood risk management and

<span style="font-family: arial; font-size: small;">Newark, Buffalo, Oswego, N.Y.; April 23, 2020. In mid-April, with boating
opportunities opening up with some restrictions related to marina
operations, social distancing, and sanitization, the Empire State Marine
Trades Association, Boating Industries Association of Upstate New York,
and New York Sea Grant are providing resources to encourage people to
boat in a socially responsible way. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: arial; font-size: small;">Be watchful for
additional restrictions or new closures and follow CDC and New
York State guidelines or restrictions for community safety. Call ahead
to see if your boating destination is open. Do not use closed or crowded
areas. If you are not feeling well or show any sign of illness or
symptoms, safe home.<br /><br />New York Sea Grant is reminding people of
10 tips to follow healthy, clean, safe and environmentally-friendly
practices while socially distancing on boats at this time:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: arial; font-size: small;"><br />1.
Observe social distancing and disinfecting standards aboard your boat.
Maintain social distancing from other boats and boaters in parking lots,
at dock, fueling stations, and on the water. Do not share paddles or
any hand-held safety, recreational or other equipment.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: arial; font-size: small;"><br />2. File a
float plan so someone onshore knows when and where you are going and
when you are expected back. Call ahead to be sure your boat launch or
marina destination is open.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: arial; font-size: small;"><br />3. Know the rules of navigation.
Brianna's Law will require all motorboat operators to complete a boating
safety course; new age requirements began January 1, 2020. Online
classes are available.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: arial; font-size: small;"><br />4. Properly equip your vessel, be it a
motorized boat, paddleboard, canoe, kayak. . . Check that all gear is
working or up-to-date, e.g., lights, horn, fire extinguishers, flares,
batteries, signal flags, first-aid kit, etc.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: arial; font-size: small;"><br />5. Have and wear an approved life vest, preferably with a bright color that would be easily seen by emergency personnel.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: arial; font-size: small;"><br />6.
Check and assure weather and water conditions are safe before leaving,
and check while on the water for any approaching weather system. Sites
for information include <a href="https://www.weather.gov/marine/" target="_blank"> </a><a href="https://www.weather.gov/marine/"><span style="color: blue;">https://www.weather.gov/marine/</span></a><a href="https://www.weather.gov/marine/" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;"> </span></a></span><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: small;">and <a href="https://glbuoys.glos.us/" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;">https://glbuoys.glos.us/</span>.</a></span><br />
<span style="font-family: arial; font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><span> </span></span>7. Have a properly-working means of communication, including a whistle, in case of emergency.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: arial; font-size: small;"><br />8. Practice environmentally-responsible boating. Use a new bilge sock and fuel nozzle bib to prevent spills.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: arial; font-size: small;"><br />9. Practice Clean, Drain, Dry before and after entering the water to limit the spread of aquatic invasive species.</span><br />

Limit the people aboard to only those in your immediate household; no guests<br />. No rafting up with other boats; no beaching your boat right next to someone else<br />. Maintain distance at dock, when fueling, and on the water<br />. Wash hands or use hand sanitizer after handling marina gates or fuel pump<br />. Go right from your house to the boat and back, no unnecessary contact<br />. Boat responsibly.<br /> </span><br />
