- Founded in 1836, The New York State Geological Survey (NYSGS) was, until 1999, the oldest, continuously operating survey in North America. In the year 2000, then State Geologist Robert Fakundiny was removed as Chief of the NYSGS, and the Survey's staff reassigned as State Museum scientists. The NYSGS served as an early model for many other state surveys, as well as the United States Geological Survey. In 2006, Dr. William Kelly was appointed State Geologist. He is presently attemptinig to reorganize the NYSGS under his leadership.
