Description

The Long Island South Shore Estuary Reserve (Reserve) features vast stretches of sandy beaches, numerous marinas, and abundant parks and nature preserves that provide opportunities to swim, boat, fish, hike, observe wildlife, and relax. Home to 1.5 million people, the Reserve is an anchor for Long Island's tourism, seafood, and recreation industries. The New York Department of State (DOS) Office of Planning, Development, and Community Infrastructure (OPDCI) administers and provides funding for the implementation of the Long Island South Shore Estuary Reserve Comprehensive Management Plan (CMP) in cooperation with the 23-member Long Island South Shore Estuary Reserve Council, which is comprised of State and local governments, non-profit and academic organizations, and other stakeholders.
