New York (State). St. Lawrence - Eastern Ontario Commission.

Hide Profile

The St. Lawrence-Eastern Ontario Commission (SLEOC) was created by Chapter 394 of the Laws of 1969 as an executive agency. Chapter 74 of the Laws of 1971 reconstituted the commission as an independent unit within the Office of Planning Services, and transferred its staff and activities to that office.

The SLEOC had responsibilities for the preservation, protection, development, and use of the unique natural resources of the St. Lawrence River Valley and the lands adjacent to Lake Ontario's eastern shores, an area bordering St. Lawrence, Jefferson, Oswego, and Cayuga counties. It reviewed development projects as part of its function to preserve, enhance, and develop that region, particularly to meet statewide standards and develop long-range regulatory policy on conservation and development of coastal resources.
