Sen. Krueger's Comments Opposing the NESE Pipeline
July 24, 2025
Today, Sen. Krueger submitted comments to the state Department of Environmental Conservation, urging them to once again deny Water Quality Certification to the proposed Northeast Supply Enhancement Project in New York Harbor that President Trump is attempting to fast-track. The pipeline, which New Yorkers fought and stopped 5 years ago, would pollute New York City’s waterways. The seabed that would be dug up has been proven to contain unsafe levels of toxic substances like arsenic, PCB’s, and dioxin, which threaten harm to marine life and pollute local beaches.
