Subject: NYSDEC question
I collect items relating to the New York State
Conservation Department, e.g., pins, patches, posters, signs, etc. I believe
that the departments name sequence went like this:
New York State
Conservation Commission
New York State Conservation Department
New York
State Department of Environmental Conservation
I believe that the NYS
Conservation Department became the NYSDEC around 1970. Does anyone know the
exact year?
Do any of you know when the NYS Conservation Commission
became the NYS Conservation Department?
Was there another name prior to
the NYS Conservation Commission?
Thanks for your help. Les Buell
