With the comptroller race behind us, last month's nominations of Assemblymember Alexander "Pete" Grannis for DEC commissioner and Judith Enck for deputy cabinet secretary for the environment are (suddenly) making waves. Here's a sample of the buzz: A Cry for Help on Tappan Zee ProjectSubmitted by Stacy Feldman on Wed, 2007-02-21 09:31.
The Journal News is reporting that Westchester County Exec Spano and Rockland County Exec Vanderhoef are urging Spitzer to intervene in the Tappan Zee Bridge rebuilding/replacing project. Anti-Broadwater Op-EdSubmitted by Stacy Feldman on Tue, 2007-02-20 16:17.

We got a call from the office of a Westchester elected this morning wanting our response. He asked for our press statement on the matter, in which we praised DiNapoli on his appointment based on his long and proven environmental record. If anyone else is interested, you can read it here. Hudson River Cleanup StalledSubmitted by Stacy Feldman on Mon, 2007-02-12 15:36.
Yet again. That's two times times in eight months that the U.S. EPA has delayed the cleanup. General Electric contaminated the river, and the U.S. EPA joined forces with GE in a 2002 agremment to clear the PCBs. The project was supposed to commence in 2005. Spitzer Nominates Two Environmental StewardsSubmitted by Stacy Feldman on Fri, 2007-01-26 16:57.
Spitzer nominated Assemblymember Grannis to serve as DEC Commissioner and Judith Enck as Deputy Secretary for the Environment. We're thrilled, as you can see by our response. |
