Luke,

 

I have forwarded your posts to U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service for comment
regarded protection of the swallow colony under the Migratory Bird
Treaty Act (MBTA) since they administer the MBTA as a federal law.

 

Thanks.

The issue of the Swallows was brought up to the property owner/developer
this morning and he said that he wil refrain from construction
activities in those areas until nesting has been completed.  I presume
that under the Migratory Bird Act these nests would be covered - anyone
with more information (DEC folks?) please feel free to share on here or
through e-mail.  There is also potential for keeping part of the natural
slope (instead of grading it) for future use as a nesting site but that
is to be determined.

Part of the bank shows significant use by ATV's.  Stringent  
enforcement of the code banning them would seem appropriate here.
