PARTICIPATE IN THE ONLINE PETITION

*Require Con Edison to uphold NYS Public Service Commission’s directives found in Case 10-E-0155 (2010). Stop Con Edison from clear-cutting the Rights of Way along their Bulk Electrical Transmission Corridors. Further, require Con Edison to allow the vegetative buffers that they clear-cut to regrow along open roadways and through suburban neighborhoods in order to re-establish those pre-existing buffers.

* Require Con Edison to mitigate the impacts on homeowners of the clear-cuttings that began in 2007, which include significant increase in noise, wind, and pollution, as well as decrease in aesthetics and property value.

* Require the Department of Transportation to establish new vegetative or otherwise sound absorptive buffers to insulate residents from the negative impacts of Con Edison’s clear-cutting along the Sprain Brook Parkway.
