        AN ACT to amend the executive law, in relation to directing the division

     1    Section  1. The executive law is amended by adding a new section 368-b
     2  to read as follows:
     3    § 368-b. Veterans memorial registry. 1. The division  is  directed  to
     4  develop  a  veterans memorial registry in consultation with the director
     5  of the New York state military museum and veterans resource center,  the
     6  commissioner  of  the office of parks, recreation and historic preserva-
     7  tion, the commissioner of the office of general services and  the  state
     8  historian.  The  registry  shall  be  made  available  on the division's
     9  website.
    10    2. The registry shall consist of a  searchable  database  of  veterans
    11  memorials located within the state.  The registry shall include, but not
    12  be  limited to, information regarding the location of a memorial and who
    13  or what veteran or battle the memorial is honoring.  Additional informa-
    14  tion may include historical  information  such  as  who  authorized  the
    15  erection of such memorial and the year of the dedication.  Such registry
    16  shall be searchable by location, veteran or battle.
    17    3.  In  developing such registry, the division may solicit information
    18  from local historians pursuant to section 57.09 of the arts and cultural
    19  affairs law. Individuals and organizations, including  but  not  limited
    20  to,  local veterans' service agencies staff, and members of congression-
    21  ally chartered veterans' service organizations  may  submit  information
    22  for inclusion in the registry, on a form developed by the division.
    23    §  2. This act shall take effect one year after it shall have become a
    24  law. Effective immediately, the addition, amendment and/or repeal of any
    25  rule or regulation necessary for the implementation of this act  on  its
    26  effective date are authorized to be made and completed on or before such
    27  effective date.
