Water & Natural Resources Associate Liz Moran Comments
“New Yorkers asked
Governor Cuomo to follow the science, and he did. Hundreds of thousands
of people took time out of their personal lives, educated themselves on
the danger of fracking,
and engaged with their government in a way we’ve haven’t seen in years.
This is a really proud moment for every one of them because protecting
public health triumphed over industry pressure.
There are thousands of pages of fine detail to sort through, and we know much work remains, like banning other states' fracking waste
from being dumped inside our borders. This is an enormous victory for
Upstate and all New Yorkers, and it gives hope to citizens across the
country fighting
back against a deep-pocketed industry!”
