Judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (Michael Stallman, J.), entered May 22, 2001, insofar as appealed from as limited by the briefs, dismissing, as time barred, so much of petitioners’ application as sought to annul the negative declaration concerning the subject project made by respondent Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR), unanimously affirmed, without costs.
DPR’s final environmental assessment containing the challenged negative declaration that the proposed project at Ferry Point in the Bronx would have no adverse environmental impact was issued on September 30, 1999. As required by New York City’s Uniform Land Use Review Procedure ([ULURP] NY City Charter §§ 197-c, 197-d), the project was reviewed by the City Planning Commission (CPC), which, on December 22, 1999, following public hearings, voted to approve the project based in part on the negative declaration.

Pine Barrens Socy. v Planning Bd., 78 NY2d 608, 613-614; Matter of McNeill v Town Bd., 260 AD2d 829, 830, lv denied 93 NY2d 812). It was CPC’s approval of the project that represented the final determination of environmental issues and permitted DPR to commit itself to “ ‘a definite course of future [environ
