Description:: A $22 million project by the New York City Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) is underway to construct 2 of a planned 19 Bluebelt wetlands in the Mid-Island section of Staten Island. The constructed wetlands help detain stormwater after it empties from the surrounding watershed and sewer system, and naturally filters it before it drains into waterways. Officers of the DEP Police underwent an airboat training excercise simulating a search and rescue operation on Pepacton Reservoir. Construction has started on a $20 million sewer upgrade project in a section of St. Albans, Queens, that has lacked adequate stormwater infrastructure.
