Long Island Game Farm
Long Island Game Farm

The Long Island Game Farm, situated at 489 Chapman Boulevard in Manorville, New York, was established in 1970 by Stanley and Diane Novak. Buffalo, camels, chimpanzees, deer, goats, lambs, and exotic birds were the earliest residents of the zoo, which also included various education areas and entertainment. Stanley Novak, his wife Diane and daughters Melinda and Susan built the zoo on 29 acres (12 ha). After Stanley’s passing in 1999, his daughter, Melinda, soon took the helm and shifted the focus of the park exclusively toward animals, nature, and education. Nearing 55 years as Long Island’s premier education and attraction center for wildlife, the zoo is evolving further to include a new nonprofit arm, The Foundation for Wildlife Sustainability, Inc., in late summer 2023. Today the Game Farm is home to more than 200 animals. For many people, visiting the game farm is a yearly tradition. The Long Island Game Farm is one of the oldest and most well-known establishments in Manorville, and has been one of the town's major landmarks since its opening. 2021 marked its 52nd season as the largest combined children's zoo and wildlife park on Long Island. 2021: New Rescued Tortoise Exhibit Sponsored by Symbiotic Landscaping and Property Management of Center Moriches. 2021: Welcome Mason our toddler Albino Wallaby who will join our brother and sister wallabies this spring. 2021 - Mid May Arrival: Welcome our new year old Giraffe! 2021: Gift Shop Sponsored by East Bay Builders Inc. of Center Moriches. 2021: Comfort Station Shed Sponsored by NY Shed Inc. of Mattituck.

Long Island Solar Farm
Long Island Solar Farm

The 32 megawatt AC Long Island Solar Farm (LISF), located in Upton, New York, was the largest photovoltaic array in the eastern U.S. in November 2011. The LISF is made up of 164,312 solar panels from BP Solar which provide enough electricity for roughly 4,500 households. The project will cause the abatement of more than 30,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions per year. LISF is co-owned by BP Solar and MetLife through Long Island Solar Farm LLC. Municipal utility Long Island Power Authority (LIPA) buys the 37-megawatt (49,600 hp) power plant's output, which is estimated at 44 GWh annually, under a 20-year power purchase agreement (PPA). Payments over that time are expected to total $298 million (34¢/kWh, 60¢/LIPA customer/month). The project was engineered by Blue Oak Energy and construction subcontracted to Hawkeye LLC from Hauppauge, New York. The plant earned the Best Photovoltaic Project of Year Award from the New York Solar Energy Industries Association. The panels are mounted at a fixed tilt angle of 35°, with the rows spaced approximately 18 ft 4 in (5.59 m) apart.: p.12 The solar farm uses 25 of the 1.25 MVA inverters and a 34.5 kV collector system. Since the connection to the grid is at 69 kV, and acquiring a spare step-up transformer of that capacity has a long lead time, a spare transformer is maintained onsite. Each inverter has an associated meteorological station to help researchers correlate plant output with observed and predicted weather, to help learn how to integrate photovoltaics into the power grid. A formal case study of the development of the Long Island Solar Farm was published by the U.S. Department of Energy in May 2013.
