Impact on the River

Impact on the River

The proposed plant would be sited in Haverstraw Bay, the most highly-rated “Significant Coastal Fish & Wildlife Habitat” in the Hudson River Estuary. The plant would: 1) Imperil the irreplaceable fisheries of Haverstraw Bay and coastal fisheries; 2) Lock us into an energy-intensive technology when we should be decreasing energy use, both because of climate change and the need to close down Indian Point; 3) Significantly increase air pollutants, including greenhouse gas emissions.
