The short explanation of this alert was:
THE CEMENT PLANT IS STOPPED!
Healthy, economically vibrant waterfronts are supported!

SLC has decided not to appeal the tremendously strong ruling against its Greenport proposal by the NYS Department of State. The company has halted plans for a massive coal-fired cement plant.

Reaction to the DOS decision:

"A deeply affirmative vision of the valley's future."
--The New York Times, Editorial, April 24, 2005

"A true watershed moment."
--Albany Times Union, Editorial, April 24, 2005

"A sound vision for Hudson River communities."
--Poughkeepsie Journal, Editorial, April 24, 2005

Three cheers for the Department of State!

Now we should thank the decision makers who defended our health and environment -- Gov. George E. Pataki and NYS Sec. of State Randy Daniels.
