As you know a devastating tornado
has ripped through the state of Oklahoma and has left a
path of death and destruction to our fellow Americans
around the suburbs of Oklahoma City.
Many of us know first hand what it is like to suffer
after such a natural disaster and understand that the
National Guard, FEMA, Red Cross and other agencies meant
to help unfortunately take their time in providing
assistance.
Many of us know that local volunteer groups,churches,
and other wonderful organizations can at times provide
faster and more assistance to people when it is needed
the most.
We just got off the phone with Grand Knight Charles
Blackburn from Council #9901 St. Andrew Parish Moore,
Oklahama. I mentioned to him that our thought and
prayers are with the people of Oklahoma and we will do
what ever we can to assist them in providing aid to the
people affected by the tornado.
As a council we would like to take a collection and make
a donation to Council #9901 to assist the people of
Oklahoma.
All donations can be made using our Councils
"Donate Now"
link on the home page of our website.
http://www.knightsofrockaway.com/
Please make whatever
donation you can to assist those in need. No matter the
amount you donate every little bit will help assist the
people of Oklahoma

Breezy Point Bill Passes Assembly
- Goldfedder
This week in Albany we took a giant
step forward for Breezy Point residents and
families trying to rebuild. Together with
the Co-op board and staff, I drafted a bill
(A. 4835) that would eliminate lengthy BSA
approval for Breezy Point reconstruction. I
am proud to announce that the bill
unanimously passed the Assembly and is now
headed to the Senate for a vote before it
can go to the Governor for final approval.

Shoreline Protection Measures
In order to better protect the
Rockaway community and shoreline from flooding and storm
surge, the Parks Department will soon be installing areas of
shoreline protective measures next to the existing boardwalk
piers. The first phase of this work will be the placement of
TrapBags and Hesco Barriers from Beach 108th Street to Beach
126th Street,
an area where there has been significant beach loss. We
expect to start installing these TrapBags and Hesco Barriers
later this month.
TrapBags are large, sand-filled geotextile
bags that resist flood and storm surge. Hesco Barriers
function similarly, but are encased in a metal frame. These
protective measures are being put in place while
comprehensive, long-term shoreline protection and coastal
flood management plans are developed by the US Army Corps of
Engineers.
We are also planning for a second phase of
work with the installation
of the following protective measures:
- Beach 149th to Beach 126th Street -
TrapBag Installation
- Beach 108th to Beach 73rd Street -
TrapBag Installation
- Beach 73rd to Beach 26th Street - Dune
Installation
Baffle Walls Update
Pile driving for the replacement baffle
walls will start this Monday, May 6, and run through late
June. Work will begin at Beach 149th Street and move east to
Beach 126th Street. Piles will only be driven on weekdays,
from 7:00 a.m. until 3:00 p.m. In total, 865 piles will be
driven into the ground. Installation of the baffle walls –
1,600 concrete segments that will be attached to the piles –
is also expected to start in early May, shortly after these
first piles are driven.

Beach Walls
The construction of the beach walls from 149th
Street to 126th Street will commence this Monday
on Beach 149th street. It is anticipated that a
block or more will be completed each day.
Currently the Department of Environmental protection is
working on the water lines on the beach in preparation for
the wall. To date they are doing one block a day. At this
time they have completed from 149th street to 141st
Street moving east. Based on what we currently know the wall
should be finished by the third week in June. |

Six Months After Sandy: City
Attempts To Ready Rockaway Beach For Memorial Day Opening
|
Weekend Wood Debris Removal & Compost Giveaway
Improving the neighborhoods of Rockaway and
Broad Channel after the devastation of
Hurricane Sandy includes the removal of dead
shrubs and trees and subsequent
re-landscaping. This weekend, the
New York City Department of Parks and
Recreation will assist in this effort with a
debris collection and compost distribution
initiative.
We are
conducting a wood debris collection effort,
during which trees, shrubs and branches
could be brought to two locations for
chipping. At these sites, compost (which
provides beneficial organic matter when
incorporated into soil) can be obtained at
no cost. Please bring bags and shovels for
the compost.
The
plant drop off and compost pick up locations
are:
Saturday, May 4th 9 am - 2 pm Neponsit
Health Care Center parking lot, Rockaway

Beach Replenishment
We have been informed of the
following information:
First phase is on target for sand
placement early June from the first
contract using 1M cubic yards of sand from the East
Rockaway Inlet, starting
from vicinity of beach 89th to 149th. The first
contract is an "emergency"
action to provide storm protection until the full
project is complete,
placing sand in the areas
where the most sand was lost. It should take about 2
months. There will
need to be rolling beach closures of about 1000'
every week as the sand is
placed, we will coordinate closely with Parks. On
target for the second and
bigger sand contract for 2.5M cubic yards of sand
from the offshore borrow
area starting in August (possibly sooner), it will
be placed everywhere from
Beach 19th to Beach 149th, and will take about 6-9
months to complete.
We will keep you updated as
information changes

Rockaway Construction Update
The Parks Department’s
contractors will be replacing the damaged baffle walls that
ran from 126th to 149th Streets. The replacement walls will
rise an average of four feet above the level of the asphalt
at the adjacent street ends and extend an average of four
feet into the ground. The exact height and placement of the
walls will be determined using the Army Corps of Engineers'
baseline beach surveys. The Army Corps is using these
surveys to guide this year’s project so the beach
nourishment will not interfere with the effectiveness of the
new baffle walls.
