Catskill Citizens for Safe Energy–SGEIS Comment suggestions
January 7, 2012
Catskill Citizens for Safe Energy.
Be sure to send your comments to the DEC before the public comment period ends on January 11th. To make things easier, we’ve provided you with letters you can send under your own name. Send one, or better yet, send all of them. You can change the text to any of these letters, and if you personalize them, they will be more effective.
We’ll make sure that anything you send to us by Monday January 9th will be delivered to the DEC on time. After Monday the 9th, use the DEC’s web-based comment form.[http://www.dec.ny.gov/energy/76838.html]
There are many other defects with the Draft that need to be addressed. For ideas on other letters you can write see What’s wrong with the revised Draft SGEIS.
