This Fine Piece of Water - An Environmental History of Long Island Sound
This is a blog about environmental issues in the New York area in general and Long Island Sound in particular. I'm the author of "This Fine Piece of Water: An Environmental History of Long Island Sound," which came out in 2002. I wrote about the environment and other issues during almost two decades as a newspaper reporter.

Unless you tell me otherwise, I'll assume it's OK to publish what you send me.
We write and publish Sphere on our own time and in a personal capacity, and the views and opinions do not represent the views and opinions of any other organizations we work or write for. We are solely responsible for the content and are not paid for our work (although we might like to be). In short, blame us, no one else.

Tom,
I hadn't heard about it either. Thanks for the heads-up. I checked the bill ratings provided by Environmental Advocates and didn't see it, nor was it referenced by Citizens Campaign. Maybe everyone expected it to pass with no opposition (as it did) so it didn't need a push?
You can read the text of the NYS Senate bill here. I'm trying to see what it will actually do for LIS. The objectives seems to match those of the coastal consistency program administered by NYSDOS.
Pardon my cynicism but...whooppee, another government council (at least they're unpaid).
