For Immediate Release
This afternoon, 90 activists representing Food & Water Watch, Hudson River Sloop Clearwater, Two Row and other members of the Stop Danskammer Coalition took to the water to protest the Danskammer fracked gas plant expansion proposal currently under review by the New York State Siting Board. Activists deployed the historic sloops
Woody Guthrie and
Clearwater in a multiple hour on-water protest against the proposal.
The proposal currently under review is from Wall Street-backed private equity firm, Tiger Infrastructure LLC, who has filed an application to replace the current Danskammer peaker plant, with a brand new, fully operational fracked gas plant. Speakers at a press conference held in tandem with the protest highlighted additional concerns with the proposal’s threats to public health and water and air quality. If approved, the plant will go from running just 5% of the year to over 70%, increasing exposure to dangerous pollutants including carbon dio
TOWN OF NEWBURGH - It has been just over a year since Danskammer Energy filed an application with state regulators to revamp the River Road natural gas plant, but it is still unknown how much longer it will take before project leaders know if they can move forward.
On Wednesday, Michelle Hook, Danskammer s vice president of public affairs, said that the state s Public Service Commission asked for more time - up to four weeks - to consider supplemental information filed with the Article 10 application.
The PSC has asked Danskammer twice thus far to submit more information since it filed plans in December 2019. Danskammer has filed supplemental information with the state Department of Environmental Conservation four times.
