Adds Moodna Creek in Orange County to the definition of inland waterways
This bill adds Moodna Creek in Orange County to the official list of state major creeks. By including the creek in the definition of inland waterways, the legislation makes it eligible for waterfront revitalization programs. The change updates the Executive Law to recognize Moodna Creek alongside other existing creeks that qualify for these initiatives. This adjustment is administrative in nature and does not create new funding or alter existing regulations beyond expanding the scope of eligible waterways.
