New York–Pennsylvania Border
The New York–Pennsylvania border is the state line between the U.S. states of New York and Pennsylvania. It has three sections: * Along the center line of the Delaware River from the Tri-States Monument tripoint with New Jersey at the confluence of the Delaware with the Neversink River in Port Jervis, New York to the 42nd parallel north between Hancock, New York and Deposit, New York about 2.8 km downstream from Hale Eddy; above Hancock this is the West branch of the Delaware; * Across the 42nd parallel north to the corner of the Erie Triangle; * North along the east boundary of the Erie Triangle to Lake Erie. The survey of the 42nd parallel north was carried out in 1785–86 and accepted by the two states in 1787. The surveying technique that was used at the time was not especially accurate, and as such, this boundary wanders a bit on both sides of the true parallel. The 82nd mile stone was used as the starting point of the Preemption Line defined in the Treaty of Hart ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

State Of New York Department Of Public Works
The office of Superintendent of Public Works was created by an 1876 amendment to the New York State Constitution. It abolished the canal commissioners and established that the Department of Public Works execute all laws relating to canal maintenance and navigation except for those functions performed by the New York State Engineer and Surveyor who continued to prepare maps, plans and estimates for canal construction and improvement.
