    40  so  required  to  be  withheld  from the salary or wages of the employees
    41  concerned.

    27    § 13. Notwithstanding any provision of law to the contrary, the  appro-
    28  priations  contained  in this act shall be available to the state for the

    33  established pursuant to article 14 of the civil service law.
    34    §  14.  Notwithstanding any provision of law, rule or regulation to the
    35  contrary, and where and to the extent an agreement negotiated between the
    36  state and the employee organization representing employees in the  agency
    37  police services collective negotiating unit established pursuant to arti-
    38  cle  14 of the civil service law so provides, the salaries of newly hired

    42    § 15. Date of  entitlement  to  salary  increase.  Notwithstanding  the

    46  pursuant  to article 14 of the civil service law who are full-time annual
    47  salaried employees and are police officers pursuant to subdivision 34  of
    48  section  1.20  of the criminal procedure law shall be added to the salary

    50  which  is  nearest  to the effective date of such increase as provided in
    51  this act, or at the beginning of the earlier of two payroll periods,  the
    52  first days of which are nearest but equally near to the effective date of
    53  such  increase  as provided in this act; provided, however, that, for the
    54  purposes of determining the salary of such unit  members  upon  reclassi-
    55  fication, reallocation, appointment, promotion, transfer, demotion, rein-
    56  statement,  or  other  change  of  status,  such salary increase shall be

        S. 2505--C                         30                         A. 3005--C

     1  deemed to be effective on the date thereof as  prescribed  by  this  act,
     2  with  payment  thereof  pursuant to this section on a date prior thereto,
     3  instead of on such effective date, and shall not operate  to  confer  any
     4  additional  salary  rights  or  benefits on such unit members. Payment of
     5  such salary increase may be deferred pursuant to section sixteen of  this
     6  act.
     7    §  16.  Deferred  payment  of  salary  increases.  Notwithstanding  the
     8  provisions of any other section of this act or of any other provision  of
     9  law  to  the  contrary, pending payment pursuant to this act of the basic
    10  annual salaries of incumbents of positions  subject  to  this  act,  such
    11  incumbents  shall receive, as partial compensation for services rendered,
    12  the rate of salary and other  compensation  otherwise  payable  in  their
    13  respective positions. An incumbent holding a position subject to this act
    14  at  any  time  during  the period from April 1, 2015, until the time when
    15  basic annual salaries and other compensation due are first paid  pursuant
    16  to  this  act for such services in excess of the salary and other compen-
    17  sation actually received therefor,  shall  be  entitled  to  a  lump  sum
    18  payment  for  the difference between the salary and other compensation to
    19  which such incumbent is entitled for such services  and  the  salary  and
    20  other  compensation  actually received. Notwithstanding the provisions of
    21  this section or of any other section of this act, the lump  sum  payments
    22  resulting from the increases in salary and other compensation pursuant to
    23  this  act  shall be aggregated in the form of a lump sum payment and made
    24  to employees in two equal payments. However,  effective  the  pay  period
    25  closest  to  March  31, 2019, the denominator for purposes of calculating
    26  overtime shall be adjusted  consistent  with  such  interest  arbitration
    27  award  and  recalculation  of the overtime earned subsequent to March 31,
    28  2019 will be reconciled, adjusted and applied in  the  first  retroactive
    29  payment  referenced  herein.  The  first payment shall be paid as soon as
    30  practicable after the passage of legislation implementing a  Final  Deci-
    31  sion  and  Award  covering the period April 1, 2015 to March 31, 2019 and
    32  the second payment shall be paid on the first day of the  payroll  period
    33  commencing after April 1, 2021. For the purpose of calculating retirement
    34  benefits,  the  amounts  paid  under this act shall count as compensation
    35  earned during the year or years for which it is  calculated  and  not  as
    36  compensation  earned  wholly  in  the year in which it is paid.  Notwith-
    37  standing any law, rule or regulation to the contrary, no  member  of  the
    38  agency  police  services  unit  to  whom the provisions of this act apply
    39  shall be entitled to, or owed, any interest  or  other  penalty  for  any
    40  reason on any monies due to such member pursuant to the terms of this act
    41  and  the  terms  of  the agreement or interest arbitration award covering
    42  employees in the agency police services unit.
    43    § 17. Use of appropriations. Notwithstanding any provision of the state
    44  finance law or any other provision of law  to  the  contrary,  the  state
    45  comptroller  is  authorized to pay any amounts required during the fiscal
    46  year commencing April 1, 2020, and/or April 1, 2021 by the provisions  of
    47  this  act  for  any  state department or agency from any appropriation or
    48  other funds available to such state department  or  agency  for  personal
    49  service  or  for other related employee benefits during such fiscal year.
    50  To the extent that such appropriations are insufficient in  any  fund  to
    51  accomplish  the  purposes herein set forth, the director of the budget is
    52  authorized to allocate to the various departments and agencies, from  any
    53  appropriations  available  in any fund, the amounts necessary to pay such
    54  amounts. The aforementioned appropriations shall be available for payment
    55  of any liabilities or obligations incurred prior to April 1, 2020, and/or
    56  April 1, 2021 in addition to current liabilities.

        S. 2505--C                         31                         A. 3005--C

     1    § 18. Notwithstanding any provision of the state  finance  law  or  any
     2  other  provision  of law to the contrary, the sum of sixty-seven million,
     3  five hundred thousand dollars ($67,500,000) is hereby appropriated in the
     4  general fund/state purposes account (10050)  in  miscellaneous-all  state
     5  departments  and agencies solely for apportionment/transfer by the direc-
     6  tor of the budget for use by any state department or agency in  any  fund
     7  for  the period April 1, 2015 through March 31, 2022 to supplement appro-
     8  priations for personal service, other than personal  service  and  fringe
     9  benefits,  and to carry out the provisions of this act. No money shall be
    10  available for expenditure from this appropriation until a certificate  of
    11  approval has been issued by the director of the budget and a copy of such
    12  certificate  or any amendment thereto has been filed with the state comp-
    13  troller, the chair of the senate finance committee and the chair  of  the
    14  assembly  ways  and  means  committee. The monies hereby appropriated are
    15  available for payment of any liabilities or obligations incurred prior to
    16  or during the period April 1, 2015  through  March  31,  2022.  For  this
    17  purpose,  the  monies  appropriated shall remain in full force and effect
    18  for the payment of liabilities incurred on or before March 31, 2022.
    19    § 19. Notwithstanding any provision of the state  finance  law  or  any
    20  other provision of law to the contrary, the several amounts as hereinaft-
    21  er  set  forth, or so much thereof as may be necessary, are hereby appro-
    22  priated from the fund so designated for use by any  state  department  or
    23  agency  for the period April 1, 2015 through March 31, 2022 to supplement
    24  appropriations  from  each  respective  fund  available  for  other  than
    25  personal  service and fringe benefits, and to carry out the provisions of
    26  this act. The monies hereby appropriated are available for the payment of
    27  any liabilities or obligations incurred prior to  or  during  the  period
    28  commencing  April  1,  2015  through  March 31, 2022.   No money shall be
    29  available for expenditure from the monies appropriated  until  a  certif-
    30  icate  of  approval  has  been issued by the director of the budget and a
    31  copy of such certificate or any amendment thereto has been filed with the
    32  state comptroller, the chair of the  senate  finance  committee  and  the
    33  chair  of  the  assembly  ways  and  means committee. Notwithstanding the
    34  provisions of any other section of this act, the  salary  increases,  and
    35  lump sum payments provided for in this act shall not be implemented until
    36  the  director  of employee relations has delivered notice to the director
    37  of the budget and the comptroller that a Final  Decision  and  Award  has
    38  been  issued  and  signed  by the interest arbitration panel so that such
    39  amounts may be paid.

     3                                   PART WW

     4    Section  1.  The section heading of section 421-f of the real property
     5  tax law, as amended by chapter 590 of the laws of 1994,  is  amended  to
     6  read as follows:
     7    Exemption of capital improvements to residential buildings and certain
     8  new construction.
     9    § 2. Section 421-f of the real property tax law is amended by adding a
    10  new subdivision 1-a to read as follows:
    11    1-a.  Buildings  classified  as class one property in section eighteen
    12  hundred two of this chapter reconstructed, altered, improved,  or  newly
    13  constructed  in  a  special  assessing  unit that is not a city shall be
    14  exempt from taxation  and  special  ad  valorem  levies  to  the  extent
    15  provided  hereinafter in the same manner and to the same extent to coun-
    16  ty, town, special district and  school  district  taxes  levied  on  the
    17  assessment  roll  prepared  by  such  special assessing unit. Additional
    18  buildings and yard improvements shall be excluded  from  receiving  this
    19  exemption.    An  application  shall  not  be  required  to  receive the
    20  exemption.
    21    § 3. Subdivisions 2 and 3 of section 421-f of the  real  property  tax
    22  law, as amended by chapter 590 of the laws of 1994, subparagraph (ii) of
    23  paragraph  (a)  of subdivision 2 and subdivision 3 as further amended by
    24  subdivision (b) of section 1 of part W of chapter  56  of  the  laws  of
    25  2010, are amended to read as follows:
    26    2.  (a) Such buildings shall be exempt for a period of one year to the
    27  extent of one hundred per centum of the increase in assessed value ther-
    28  eof attributable to such reconstruction, alteration or improvement,  and
    29  new  construction pursuant to subdivision one-a of this section, and for
    30  an additional period of seven years subject to the following:
    31    (i) The extent of such exemption shall  be  decreased  by  twelve  and
    32  one-half  per centum of the "exemption base" each year during such addi-
    33  tional period. The "exemption base" shall be the  increase  in  assessed
    34  value  as  determined  in the initial year of the term of the exemption,
    35  except as provided in subparagraph (ii) of this paragraph.
    36    (ii) In any year in which a change in level of assessment  of  fifteen
    37  percent or more is certified for a final assessment roll pursuant to the
    38  rules  of  the commissioner, the exemption base shall be multiplied by a
    39  fraction, the numerator of which shall be the total  assessed  value  of
    40  the parcel on such final assessment roll (after accounting for any phys-
    41  ical  or  quantity changes to the parcel since the immediately preceding
    42  assessment roll), and the  denominator  of  which  shall  be  the  total
    43  assessed  value of the parcel on the immediately preceding final assess-
    44  ment roll. The result shall be the new  exemption  base.  The  exemption
    45  shall  thereupon  be  recomputed  to take into account the new exemption
    46  base, notwithstanding the fact that the assessor receives  certification
    47  of  the change in level of assessment after the completion, verification
    48  and filing of the final assessment roll. In the event the assessor  does
    49  not  have  custody  of the roll when such certification is received, the
    50  assessor shall certify the recomputed exemption to  the  local  officers
    51  having  custody  and  control  of  the roll, and such local officers are
    52  hereby directed and authorized to enter the recomputed exemption  certi-
    53  fied by the assessor on the roll. The assessor shall give written notice
    54  of  such  recomputed  exemption to the property owner, who may, if he or

        S. 2505--C                         33                         A. 3005--C

     1  she believes that the exemption was recomputed incorrectly, apply for  a
     2  correction in the manner provided by title three of article five of this
     3  chapter for the correction of clerical errors.
     4    (iii)  [Such]  Except  in a special assessing unit that is not a city,
     5  such exemption shall be limited to eighty thousand dollars in  increased
     6  market  value,  or such other sum less than eighty thousand dollars, but
     7  not less than five thousand dollars as may be provided by the local  law
     8  or  resolution,  of  the  property  attributable to such reconstruction,
     9  alteration or improvement and any increase in market value greater  than
    10  such  amount  shall  not  be eligible for the exemption pursuant to this
    11  section. In a special assessing unit that is not a city,  the  exemption
    12  shall  be  limited  to seven hundred fifty thousand dollars in increased
    13  market value. For the purposes of this section, the market value of  the
    14  reconstruction,  alteration  or  improvement,  or  new  construction  as
    15  authorized by subdivision one-a of this section, shall be equal  to  the
    16  increased assessed value attributable to such reconstruction, alteration
    17  [or], improvement or new construction divided by the class [I] one ratio
    18  in  a  special  assessing  unit  or  the most recently established state
    19  equalization rate or special equalization rate in the remainder  of  the
    20  state,  except where the state equalization rate or special equalization
    21  rate equals or exceeds ninety-five percent, in which case  the  increase
    22  in  assessed value attributable to such reconstruction, alteration [or],
    23  improvement or new construction shall be  deemed  to  equal  the  market
    24  value of such reconstruction, alteration or improvement.
    25    (b)  [No]  Except  in  a special assessing unit that is not a city, no
    26  such exemption shall  be  granted  for  reconstruction,  alterations  or
    27  improvements unless:
    28    (i)  such  reconstruction,  alteration  or  improvement  was commenced
    29  subsequent to the effective date of the local law or resolution  adopted
    30  pursuant to subdivision one of this section; and
    31    (ii)  the  value  of  such  reconstruction,  alteration or improvement
    32  exceeds three thousand dollars; and
    33    (iii) the greater portion, as so determined by square footage, of  the
    34  building reconstructed, altered or improved is at least five years old.
    35    (c)  For purposes of this section the terms reconstruction, alteration
    36  and improvement shall not include ordinary maintenance and repairs.
    37    3. [Such] Except in a special assessing unit that is not a city,  such
    38  exemption  shall  be  granted only upon application by the owner of such
    39  building on a form prescribed by the commissioner. The application shall
    40  be filed with the assessor of the city, town, village or  county  having
    41  the  power  to assess property for taxation on or before the appropriate
    42  taxable status date of such city, town, village or county.  In a special
    43  assessing unit that is not a city, the exemption shall be applied  based
    44  upon  that  completion of reconstruction, alteration, improvement or new
    45  construction on or before the applicable  taxable  status  date  of  the
    46  special  assessing  unit;  provided, however that the exemption for such
    47  reconstruction,  alteration,  improvement  or  new   construction   that
    48  occurred  after  the  taxable status date of such special assessing unit
    49  for the two thousand nineteen -- two  thousand  twenty  assessment  roll
    50  and  on or before the taxable status date of such special assessing unit
    51  for the two thousand twenty -- two thousand twenty-one  assessment  roll
    52  shall be applied beginning with the two thousand twenty-one -- two thou-
    53  sand twenty-two assessment roll.
    54    § 4. Subdivisions 5, 6 and 7 of section 421-f of the real property tax
    55  law,  as amended by chapter 590 of the laws of 1994, are amended to read
    56  as follows:

        S. 2505--C                         34                         A. 3005--C

     1    5. For the purposes of this section, except  in  a  special  assessing
     2  unit  that is not a city, a residential building shall mean any building
     3  or structure designed and occupied exclusively for residential  purposes
     4  by not more than two families.
     5    6.  In the event that a building granted an exemption pursuant to this
     6  section ceases to be used primarily for residential purposes [or], is no
     7  longer classified as class one property in a special assessing unit that
     8  is not a city, or title thereto is transferred to other than  the  heirs
     9  or distributees of the owner in other than a special assessing unit that
    10  is  not  a  city,  the  exemption granted pursuant to this section shall
    11  cease.
    12    7. (a) [A] Except for a special assessing unit that is not a  city,  a
    13  county, city, town or village may, by its local law, or school district,
    14  by its resolution:
    15    (i)  reduce  the per centum of exemption otherwise allowed pursuant to
    16  this section;
    17    (ii) limit eligibility for the exemption  to  those  forms  of  recon-
    18  struction,  alterations  or improvements as are prescribed in such local
    19  law or resolution;
    20    (iii) provide that the exemption shall be  applicable  only  to  those
    21  improvements which would otherwise result in an increase in the assessed
    22  valuation  of the real property but which consist of an addition, remod-
    23  eling or modernization to an existing residential structure  to  prevent
    24  physical  deterioration  of  the  structure or to comply with applicable

    34    § 6. Severability. If any clause, sentence, paragraph, section or part
    35  of this act shall be adjudged by any court of competent jurisdiction  to
    36  be  invalid  and  after  exhaustion  of all further judicial review, the
    37  judgment shall not affect, impair or invalidate the  remainder  thereof,
    38  but  shall  be  confined in its operation to the clause, sentence, para-

    49    Section  1. Section 1 of subpart H of part C of chapter 20 of the laws
    50  of 2015, appropriating money  for  certain  municipal  corporations  and
    51  school  districts,  as amended by section 1 of part AAA of chapter 59 of
    52  the laws of 2018, is amended to read as follows:
    53    Section 1. Contingent  upon  available  funding,  and  not  to  exceed
    54  [$69,000,000] $140,000,000 moneys from the urban development corporation

        S. 2505--C                         35                         A. 3005--C

     1  shall be available for a local government entity, which for the purposes
     2  of  this  section  shall  mean  a  county,  city,  town, village, school
     3  district or special district, where (i) on or after June  25,  2015,  an
     4  electric generating facility located within such local government entity
     5  has  ceased operations, and (ii) the closing of such facility has caused
     6  a reduction in the real property tax collections or payments in lieu  of
     7  taxes of at least twenty percent owed by such electric generating facil-
     8  ity.  Such  moneys attributable to the cessation of operations, shall be
     9  paid annually on a first come, first served basis by the urban  develop-
    10  ment  corporation  to  such  local government entity within a reasonable
    11  time upon confirmation from  the  state  office  of  real  property  tax
    12  services  or  the  local  industrial  development  authority established
    13  pursuant to titles eleven and fifteen of article  eight  of  the  public
    14  authorities  law, or the local industrial development agency established
    15  pursuant to article eighteen-A of the general municipal  law  that  such
    16  cessation  has  resulted  in  a  reduction  in  the  real  property  tax
    17  collections or payments in lieu of taxes, provided,  however,  that  the
    18  urban development corporation shall not provide assistance to such local
    19  government  entity  for  more than seven years, and shall award payments
    20  reflecting the loss of revenues due to the cessation  of  operations  as
    21  follows:

    22          Award Year                Maximum Potential Award
    23              1           no more than eighty percent of loss of revenues
    24              2           no more than seventy percent of loss of revenues
    25              3           no more than sixty percent of loss of revenues
    26              4           no more than fifty percent of loss of revenues
    27              5           no more than forty percent of loss of revenues
    28              6           no more than thirty percent of loss of revenues
    29              7           no more than twenty percent of loss of revenues

    30    A  local  government  entity shall be eligible for only one payment of
    31  funds hereunder per year.  A local government entity may seek assistance
    32  under the electric generation facility cessation mitigation fund once  a
    33  generator  has submitted its notice to the federally designated electric
    34  bulk system operator (BSO) serving the state of New York of  its  intent
    35  to retire the facility or of its intent to voluntarily remove the facil-
    36  ity  from  service  subject  to  any return-to-service provisions of any
    37  tariff, and that the facility also is ineligible to participate  in  the
    38  markets  operated  by the BSO. The date of submission of a local govern-
    39  ment entity's application for assistance shall establish  the  order  in
    40  which  assistance is paid to program applicants, except that in no event
    41  shall assistance be paid to a local government entity  until  such  time
    42  that an electric generating facility has retired or become ineligible to
    43  participate  in  the  markets  operated by the BSO. For purposes of this
    44  section, any local government entity seeking assistance under the  elec-
    45  tric generation facility cessation mitigation fund must submit an attes-
    46  tation  to the department of public service that a facility is no longer
    47  producing electricity and is no longer participating in markets operated
    48  by the BSO. After receipt of such attestation, the department of  public
    49  service  shall  confirm  such information with the BSO. In the case that
    50  the BSO confirms to the department of public service that  the  facility
    51  is no longer producing electricity and participating in markets operated
    52  by  such  BSO,  it shall be deemed that the electric generating facility
    53  located within the local government entity  has  ceased  operation.  The
    54  department  of  public  service  shall  provide such confirmation to the

        S. 2505--C                         36                         A. 3005--C

     1  urban development corporation upon receipt.  The  determination  of  the
     2  amount  of  such  annual payment shall be determined by the president of
     3  the urban development corporation based on the amount of  the  differen-
     4  tial  between  the  annual  real  property taxes and payments in lieu of
     5  taxes imposed upon the facility, exclusive of  interest  and  penalties,
     6  during  the  last year of operations and the current real property taxes
     7  and payments in lieu of taxes imposed upon the  facility,  exclusive  of
     8  interest and penalties. The total amount awarded from this program shall
     9  not exceed [$69,000,000] $140,000,000.
    10    §  2.  Section  4  of subpart H of part C of chapter 20 of the laws of
    11  2015, appropriating money for certain municipal corporations and  school
    12  districts, is amended to read as follows:
    13    §  4.  This  act shall take effect immediately and shall expire and be
    14  deemed repealed by July 1, 2025; provided, however, a local   government
    15  which has not completed its seven years of assistance prior to such date
    16  shall  continue  to  receive  funding until such seven year timeframe is
    17  complete.
    18    § 3. This act shall take effect immediately; provided,  however,  that
    19  the  amendments to section 1 of subpart H of part C of chapter 20 of the
    20  laws of 2015 made by section one of this act shall not affect the repeal
    21  of such subpart and shall be deemed repealed therewith.

    25    Section 1. Notwithstanding the contrary provisions of  section  9-0501
    26  of the environmental conservation law and the contrary provisions of the
    27  public  lands  law,  the  department  of  environmental  conservation is
    28  authorized to grant easements for buried electric cables on real proper-
    29  ty within the Farmersville State Forest, Lost Nation State  Forest,  and
    30  Swift Hill State Forest, which meet the following conditions:
    31    (a)  The  easements are for buried electric cables which are part of a
    32  wind powered electric generation project located in the towns  of  Rush-
    33  ford, Farmersville, Arcade, Centerville, Freedom, and Machias.
    34    (b) The easements are for a portion of properties located within Farm-
    35  ersville  State  Forest,  Lost Nation State Forest, and Swift Hill State
    36  Forest owned by the state and managed by the department of environmental
    37  conservation.  To avoid impacts to these three state forests  associated
    38  with  the placement of buried electric cables serving the aforementioned
    39  wind-powered electric generation project and consistent with the certif-
    40  ication and approval of the project pursuant to article 10 of the public
    41  service law, the electric cables in these three state forests  shall  be
    42  installed  underground, directional boring shall be used to install such
    43  underground cables, and, for the duration of and in connection with  the
    44  easements  granted,  no  trees  shall  be removed from these three state
    45  forests before, during or after installation of such buried cables.  The
    46  buried cables shall be:
    47    (1)  located  underground  for approximately 500 feet between turbines
    48  101 and 102 (which are sited on  private  land),  and  passing  below  a
    49  section of Farmersville State Forest in Cattaraugus County;
    50    (2) located underground for approximately 1,600 feet on the south side
    51  of Hess Road along the Farmersville State Forest boundary in Cattaraugus
    52  County,  turning southwest to follow an existing track for approximately
    53  420 feet, and continuing west along the  northern  parcel  boundary  for

        S. 2505--C                         38                         A. 3005--C

     1  approximately  1,300  feet to the property line, to connect turbines 100
     2  and 104 (both sited on private land);
     3    (3)  located  underground  for approximately 2,950 feet along the west
     4  side of North Hill Road in Lost Nation State Forest in  Allegany  County
     5  to  connect  turbines  73, 75, 76, and 77 (all sited on private land) to
     6  the rest of the project; and
     7    (4) located underground for approximately 1,150 feet on the east  side
     8  of  Rushford  Road, along the western edge of Swift Hill State Forest in
     9  Allegany County to connect turbines 124 and 125 (both sited  on  private
    10  land) to the rest of the project.
    11    (c)  The easements will be conveyed by the department of environmental
    12  conservation and take effect only in the event  the  underground  cables
    13  proposed to be on such easement lands are certified and approved as part
    14  of a wind powered electric generation facility pursuant to article 10 of
    15  the public service law.
    16    (d)  The  easements  shall  terminate when the associated wind powered
    17  electric generation project ceases to operate for 18 months as set forth
    18  in the easements and the easements shall then revert to the state to  be
    19  managed  by the department of environmental conservation as state forest
    20  land.
    21    (e) The use of chemicals/herbicides for  clearing  said  easements  is
    22  prohibited  unless prior approval for the same is granted by the depart-
    23  ment of environmental conservation, division of lands and forests.
    24    § 2. (a) In entering into the easements described in  section  one  of
    25  this  act, the department of environmental conservation is authorized to
    26  grant such easements for fair market value plus twenty  percent  of  the
    27  value  of  the easements plus one hundred thousand dollars upon applica-
    28  tion by Alle-Catt Wind Energy LLC.
    29    (b) An amount, not less than fair market value plus twenty percent  of
    30  the  value  of  the easements plus one hundred thousand dollars shall be
    31  used to obtain for the state an interest in real property for open space
    32  purposes in region 9 of the  department  of  environmental  conservation
    33  from  the  regional  priority  conservation projects list in region 9 as
    34  part of this state's open space conservation plan. The total payment for
    35  such acquisition or acquisitions shall not be less than the value of the
    36  easements to be conveyed by the state plus twenty percent of  the  value
    37  of such easements plus one hundred thousand dollars.
    38    (c)  Any  monies received by the department of environmental conserva-
    39  tion from Alle-Catt Wind Energy LLC in consideration of these  easements
    40  shall  be  deposited  into  the  state environmental protection fund, as
    41  established in section 92-s of the state finance law, until such time as
    42  they can be used towards the purchase of the real  property  as  contem-
    43  plated in subdivision (b) of this section.
    44    (d) The description of the easements to be conveyed by this act is not
    45  intended  to  be  a  legal  description, but is intended to identify the
    46  easements to be conveyed. As a condition of  conveyance  Alle-Catt  Wind
    47  Energy  LLC  shall submit to the commissioner of environmental conserva-
    48  tion for his or her approval an accurate survey and description of lands
    49  generally described in this section which may be used in the  conveyance
    50  thereof.
    51    (e)  The  grant  of  the  easements  is conditioned on the issuance of
    52  certificates of environmental compatibility and public need pursuant  to
    53  the provisions of article 10 of the public service law.
    54    §  3.  The  commissioner  of  environmental conservation may prescribe
    55  additional terms for such exchange of real property. Such contract shall
    56  not become binding upon the state until  approved  by  the  state  comp-

        S. 2505--C                         39                         A. 3005--C

     1  troller. Title to the land to the people of the state of New York pursu-
     2  ant to the provisions of such contract shall be approved by the attorney
     3  general, and the deed to the state shall be approved by him or her as to
     4  form and manner of execution and recordability before such deed shall be
     5  accepted on behalf of the state. Notwithstanding the contrary provisions
     6  of  the  public  lands  law, the conveyance of the state-owned easements
     7  pursuant to such contract shall be  without  reservation  or  exception,
     8  except  as  provided  for  in  such  contract. Upon certification by the
     9  commissioner of environmental conservation to the commissioner of gener-
    10  al services of a copy of the contract, and certification that  Alle-Catt
    11  Wind  Energy  LLC  has  complied  with  all  terms and conditions of the
    12  contract upon their part to be  kept  and  performed,  together  with  a
    13  description  of  any  of  the easements to be exchanged, conveyed and/or
    14  payments to be made, the commissioner of general services  shall  convey
    15  the  easements  described  in section one of this act in accordance with
    16  the provisions of the contract.
    17    § 4. This act shall take effect immediately, and shall expire  and  be
    18  deemed  repealed  five  years after such date; provided, however, should
    19  the easements be granted within the five years, the term  of  the  ease-
    20  ments  will  establish  the  end date of the easements. At such time the
    21  land will revert back  to  the  state  of  New  York  for  state  forest
    22  purposes.
