§ 130. Powers of municipalities and state agencies. Notwithstanding
any other provision of law, no state agency, municipality or any agency
thereof may require any approval, consent, permit, certificate or other
condition for the construction or operation of a major facility with
respect to which an application for a certificate hereunder has been
issued, other than those provided by otherwise applicable state law for
the protection of employees engaged in the construction and operation of
such facility, and provided that in the case of a municipality or an
agency thereof, such municipality has received notice of the filing of
the application therefor.

Neither the Tug Hill commission nor the Adirondack park agency shall
hold public hearings for a major utility transmission facility with
respect to which an application hereunder has been filed, provided that
such commission or agency has received notice of the filing of such
application.
