Long Island Nitrogen Action Plan (LINAP) - Special Announcement

Public Information Session Announced for the Bay Park Conveyance Project

NYSDEC and the Nassau County Department of Public Works are hosting a virtual public information session for the Bay Park Conveyance Project on Thursday, October 7, 2021, from 6:00 PM to 7:30 PM via Zoom Webinar. Western Bays Constructors, the Design-Build contractor, will provide information on upcoming construction activities and be available to answer questions.

The Project aims to reduce nitrogen in the Western Bays of Long Island by conveying treated effluent from the South Shore Water Reclamation Facility (previously known as the Bay Park Sewage Treatment Plant) to the Cedar Creek Water Pollution Control Plant’s ocean outfall pipe. With treated effluent no longer discharged into the Western Bays, nearby communities will experience the benefits of improved water quality in the Western Bays, enhanced quality of life, revitalized shellfish habitat and restored vital marshlands that protect communities from wave action and coastal surge.
