| (E)designations Text Amendment |
| The City Council has approved a Citywide text amendment to Section 11-15 and related sections of the Zoning Resolution, proposed
by the Department of City planning, to update the regulations governing Environmental “(E)” designations. This text amendment
is being closely coordinated with the New York City Office of Environmental Remediation (OER) and will result in a more streamlined
and transparent (E) Program – the City’s process for establishing environmental requirements related to hazardous materials,
air quality, and noise on potential development sites identified during City Environmental Quality Review (CEQR) for proposed
rezonings. (Adopted March 28, 2012)

| Vision 2020: New York City Comprehensive Waterfront Plan |
| Released on March 14, 2011, Vision 2020 is the culmination of a year-long, participatory planning process involving multiple
agencies and organizations and input from New Yorkers in every borough. Building on the City's success in opening up to the
public miles of shoreline that had been inaccessible for decades, and supporting expansion of the maritime industry, Vision
2020 sets the stage for expanded use of our waterfront for parks, housing and economic development, and our waterways for
transportation, recreation and natural habitats. The 10-year plan lays out a vision for the future with new citywide policies
and site-specific recommendations.

| Waterfront Revitalization Program |
| The Department of City Planning is proposing a series of revisions to the Waterfront Revitalization Program (WRP) in order
to proactively advance the long-term goals laid out in Vision 2020: The New York City Comprehensive Waterfront Plan, released
in 2011. The WRP is the City’s primary coastal zone management tool, and the proposed revisions, currently undergoing public
review, emphasize sustainability and climate resilience planning, promote a range of ecological objectives and strategies,
facilitate interagency review of permitting to preserve and enhance maritime infrastructure, and support a thriving, sustainable
working waterfront.
