Introduction:
The New York Field Office of Ecological Services (NYFO) is located in Cortland,
New York, and includes the Long Island Field Office located in Brookhaven, New
York. The Ecological Services function of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
is responsible for the conservation and restoration of fish and wildlife habitat,
especially wetland habitat. Field office biologists investigate the effects
of contaminants and the measures and costs of contaminant clean-up, help recover
threatened and endangered species, review proposals for wetland alterations
from construction, and recommend measures to enhance fish and wildlife resources
in conjunction with the licensing of power facilities and other Federal projects
such as shoreline protection, storm flooding, etc. Our work with private individuals,
organizations, and other State and Federal agencies protects and enhances fish
and wildlife habitat on private, State, and Federal lands. The Offices also
provide public information about the value and benefits derived from the conservation
and restoration of fish, wildlife, plants, and their habitats.
