WHEREAS, upon due notice, the Council held a public hearing on the Site Plan on March 12, 2018;
WHEREAS, the Council has considered the relevant environmental issues, including the Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) for which a Notice of Completion was issued on September 12, 2008 (CEQR No. 08DME006Q), which identified significant adverse impacts with respect to hazardous materials, air quality and noise; and Technical Memoranda #1- November 2008, #2 - January 2010, #3 - October 2012, #4 - January 2013, and #5 - November 2017, (the “Technical Memoranda”);

Having considered the FEIS and the Technical Memoranda with respect to the Decision and Application, the Council finds that:
(1) The FEIS meets the requirements of 6 N.Y.C.R.R. Part 617;

(3) The action is consistent with the applicable rules and regulations set forth in 19 NYCRR 600.5, and since the Secretary of State has approved a local government waterfront revitalization program, the action is consistent with the local waterfront revitalization program to the maximum extent possible; and
(4) The Decision, together with the FEIS and the Technical Memoranda, constitute the written statement of facts, and of social, economic and other factors and standards that form the basis of this determination, pursuant to 6 N.Y.C.R.R. §617.11.
