Keeping Nuclear Waste out of the Hudson River

Protecting the Hudson River has been one of the top issues about which my office has received constituent calls and emails this year. I am very glad that our Westchester delegation, under the sponsorship of Assemblywoman Dana Levenberg and Senator Pete Harckham, were able to push for the passage of legislation to restrict the discharge of radiological substances into the river (A.7208/S.6893).
