What does your number mean?

Body Mass Index (BMI) is a simple index of weight-for-height that is commonly used to classify underweight, overweight and obesity in adults.

BMI values are age-independent and the same for both sexes.
The health risks associated with increasing BMI are continuous and the interpretation of BMI gradings in relation to risk may differ for different populations.

As of today if your BMI is at least 35 to 39.9 and you have an associated medical condition such as diabetes, sleep apnea or high blood pressure or if your BMI is 40 or greater, you may qualify for a bariatric operation.

If you have any questions, contact Dr. Claros.

And the high levels of the Ashokan Reservoir worsen flooding from the Lower Esopus during rains, residents say, damaging homes and crops. NYC regularly discharges turbid In 1915 damming of a portion of the creek formed the Ashokan Reservoir splitting the creek into upper (upstream of the reservoir) and lower (downstream of the reservoir) segments. The objectives of this project will be accomplished by collecting discrete SSC and turbidity samples throughout a range in stream discharge conditions and monitoring in situ turbidity at a 15 minute time step during a 5 year period at 8 primary monitoring stations within the upper Esopus Creek watershed.

Between 2012 and 2014, 4 reach scale stream restoration projects were completed within the Stony Clove watershed to reduce stream turbidity 1) Stony Clove at Chichester Sites 1-3, 2) Stony Clove at Stony Clove Lane, 3) Stony Clove-Warner Creek Confluence, and 4) Warner Creek Site 5. Implementation of the turbidity control measures analyzed in this DEIS would allow NYCDEP to continue to provide reliable, clean, and safe drinking water while reducing reliance on chemical treatment of the water supply, specifically the use of alum, during episodic turbidity events. This project addresses several of the priorities identified in the Upper Esopus Creek Management Plan including: 1) comprehensive monitoring and surveillance of the Upper Esopus for suspended sediment, 2) information that can be used to protect, restore, enhance, or reduce impairments to aquatic habitat by helping prioritize tributaries for their contributions to suspended sediment loadings and 3) data to aid general non-point source program implementation. The DEIS and draft permit incorporate turbidity control measures, including operation of the Ashokan Reservoir in accordance with the Revised Ashokan Release Protocol, that will help improve water quality, protect critical fish and wildlife habitat in the Ashokan and downstream communities, and continue to provide reliable and clean drinking water. The upper Esopus Creek watershed is approximately 192 mi2 from the source, Winnisook Lake, and the Ashokan Reservoir near Boiceville, NY, (Smith et al. 2008). Despite this additional challenge, th e Citys investment in stream bank restoration and flood resilience upstream of the Ashokan have resulted in decreased turbidity in the If we cant manage heavy silt during rainy seasons, an additional 200 acre reservoir and dam emptying into the same reservoir will not make this management easier.

Develop sediment and/or turbidity (dependent on the variables measured at each station) discharge rating curves for each monitoring location. The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) today announced the release of two draft documents related to water releases from New York City's Ashokan Reservoir for public review and comment. The rest of the tributaries fell into two groups: those that produced moderate SSCs and turbidity, and those that produced low SSCs and turbidity. The 5 year monitoring period will allow the USGS to investigate how variations in discharge, season, and antecedent moisture conditions affectSSC and turbidity levels. Please see the List of Studies, Reports, EISs Obtained and Considered in Preparing the modification of the CATALUM SPDES Permit DEIS (PDF). Terrigenous inorganic particles delivered during runoff events cause problems of high turbidity in many lakes and reservoirs. Found inside Page 2732 of " Sursary of Turbidity and Sedisentation Studies " The gajority of the material carried through the tunnel is carried down Esopus Creek and into Ashokan Reservoir due to the small particle size and the relatively high velocities in Terrestrial sources of sediment and turbidity are created when areas of erodible sediments coincide with areas of transport to the stream (Church 2002).

Bottom panel is the result when Because in situ turbidity is collected at a 15 minute time interval a well-defined relation between the 2 variables should allow more accurate calculations of suspended sediment loads and yields. 3.

High magnitude storm flows in the Esopus Creek watershed carry high Excessive turbidity will trigger more frequent service interruptions in the Catskill Aqueduct, fed by the Ashokan Reservoir. Ashokan Reservoir, such as its serving as a drinking water source for nine million people. Nolan said the project as proposed has the potential to stir up turbidity basically suspended solids in the water that are a problem for drinking water resources. She said the Ashokan This project will help to evaluate the effectiveness of stream restoration projects in the Stony Clove watershed and put those results into context within the larger upper Esopus Creek watershed. Water diverted from Schoharie Creek through Shandaken Tunnel (station 01362230) since Feb. 3, 1924, enters Esopus Creek about 12.2 mi upstream from Ashokan Reservoir. Terrigenous inorganic particles delivered during runoff events cause problems of high turbidity in many lakes and reservoirs. The Ashokan Reservoir (/ o k n /; Iroquois for "place of fish") is a reservoir in Ulster County, New York.It is at the eastern end of the Catskill Park, and is one of several in the region created to provide the City of New York with water.It is the city's deepest reservoir at 190 feet (58 m) near the dam at the former site of Bishop Falls. Estimate suspended sediment loads and yields at 8 locations within the upper Esopus Creek watershed. 026 4652).

The project will also address the two major water quality impairments identified in the upper Esopus Creek watershed, turbidity and sedimentation within the Ashokan Reservoir watershed (CCE 2007). The water flows down the Shandaken Tunnel prior to depositing into the western and eastern catch basins of the Ashokan Reservoir. Geographic Names Information System (GNIS), Mapping, Remote Sensing, and Geospatial Data. It is carried southeast under the Hudson River via the 92-mile Catskill Aqueduct, which has a maximum depth of 1,114 feet.

Turbidity from suspended sediment entrained during stream-channel The New York City Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) and the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) today announced that a new stream gauge was installed this month along the lower Esopus Creek at Lomontville, roughly 6 miles below Ashokan Reservoir. Ashokan Reservoir There was a big push to determine where this turbidity was coming from, Carey says. No data point selected. The draft documents that are available for review and public comment include: The book recommends that New York City place its highest priority on pathogenic microorganisms in the watershed and direct its resources toward improving methods for detecting pathogens, understanding pathogen transport and fate, and The longer data collection period will also allow us to better define the relation between suspended sediment and in situ turbidity. In November 2015, New York City Department of Environmental Protection (NYCDEP) submitted a proposal to the New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH) and the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) (FAD regulatory agencies) outlining a set of studies covering a 10 year time period that will satisfy the FAD requirements (NYCDEP, 2015). Within those two groups the tributary that produced the highest SSCs and turbidity varied from year to year depending on the hydrologic conditions within each tributary watershed.

For Release: Wednesday, December 16, 2020. clay deposits prevalent in the Ashokan Reservoir, as reported in your 2018 Watershed Water Quality Annual Report, puts Ulster County in a unique and compromised position. This project will address requirements in the NYCDEP proposal to fulfill the water quality study objectives in Section 4.6 of the 2007 Filtration Avoidance Determination; specifically, to monitor suspended sediment and turbidity levels within the upper Esopus Creek watershed and its tributaries, characterize SSC and turbidity through a range in discharge at each monitoring station, and provide data to inform stream management strategies.
