Actions and locations subject to Integrated Reviews
  • Please review the 239IR Reference map to verify whether the action and location are subject to referral requirements.
  • You may also review the complete text (specifically, sections -l, -m, -n, and -nn) to determine if an action is subject to referral under NYS law. 
  • Feel free to contact your assigned county planner directly for specific questions and additional guidance
Please select the option that describes this submission's PRIMARY purpose (i.e., if it includes a site plan, but also a Lead Agency Request, please use SEQRA. If it is a Lead Agency Request because a site plan application is an Unlisted or Type I action, please use SEQRA. If it is only a site plan application as submitted to the municipality, please select GML 239 referral)
Review the referral map to ensure the action must be referred to Erie County through GML §239

- Project/Proposal description

This may include any one of the following: Lead Agency Request, a Coordinated Review, an Uncoordinated Review, Environmental Impact Statements, Impact Declarations, etc.
If there is no road/mailing address, you may use "Vacant Lot" (V/L) or similar term. If the action applies to the entire municipality (such as zoning code amendments or comprehensive plans), you may use "Entire Municipality" or similar term
