Unreferenced date December 2009 The NewYorkStateCanal Corporation is a subsidiary of the NewYorkState Thruway NewYorkState Thruway Authority . It is responsible for the oversight, administration and maintenance of the NewYorkStateCanalSystem , which consists of the Erie Canal , Cayuga Seneca Canal , Oswego Canal and Champlain Canal . It is also involved with the development and maintenance of the NewYorkState Canalway Trail and with the general development and promotion of the Erie Canal Corridor as both a tourist attraction and a working waterway. In 2004, it was discovered that officials of the Canal Corporation had attempted to sell private development rights to large stretches of the Old Erie Canal to a single developer for a mere 30,000, far less than the land was worth on the open market. After an investigation by the Syracuse Post Standard newspaper and much public criticism, governor George Pataki later canceled the deal. The current director of the NewYorkStateCanal Corporation is Brian Stratton , who was appointed to the position by Governor Andrew Cuomo in the Spring of 2011. In May 2006, Governor Pataki proposed recreating the Canal Corporation by 2010 as an independent agency no longer under the oversight of the Thruway Authority. http www.canals.ny.gov NewYorkStateCanalSystem Homepage Category Public benefit corporations in NewYork Category Transportation in NewYork ... more details

About a historical event waterways Canal ring The Canal Ring referred to the group of corrupt contractors and their political supporters who conspired shortly after the American Civil War to defraud the State of NewYork by overcharging for repairs and improvement of the state s canalsystem. It defied an investigation in 1868 and for years was powerful enough to prevent interference and to defeat unfriendly candidates for office. The group was finally broken up by Governor Samuel J. Tilden in 1874 . Tilden employed a skilled engineer to examine their work and then surprised the NewYorkState Legislature legislature by a wholly unexpected special message setting forth in detail the fraudulent methods of the ring. This served as a direct appeal to the people, and so aroused public opinion that the legislature was forced to authorize the governor to appoint a canal commission. The reports of this commission resulted in a marked diminution in the appropriation for canals and the indictment of several officials for defrauding the State.
