The CWC Stream Corridor Protection Program, which provided funding for projects to mitigate or correct stream conditions posing flood danger to persons or property, ended in 2010. Thirteen projects were funded through this program.

In December, 2011, the program was modified as Article 12-A and re-funded to provide grants for the removal of flood debris in stream channels and/or floodplains in the Watershed. Only towns, villages, or owners of property in need of flood debris removal, or Soil and Water Conservation Districts (SWCD) acting on their behalf, may apply. Preference will be given to projects in West-of-Hudson Watershed areas flooded by Tropical Storms Irene and/or Lee on or after August 28, 2011. Eligible costs may include project labor, fuel, equipment, and materials necessary for flood-debris removal.Flood debris in an Ashland stream

Applications may be submitted at any time. They will be reviewed by CWC, NYC DEP and SWCD. Applicants are responsible for all required permits.
