Please pay attention to the bill coming your direction. Under the legislation, introduced by sponsors State Assemblyman Fred W. Thiele Jr. and Senator Kenneth P. LaValle on Thursday, May 9, mining would be prohibited on contaminated sites within the state’s special groundwater protection areas. Make sure this is NOT discussed behind closed doors and that the public is able to see and hear any and all arguments to keep the whole mine space open any longer and who is advocating such disregard for laws in place for decades- much less the health of our local environment.

This is an urgent disaster. We cannot allow our drinking water to be continuously contaminated given all the information on tests done on this site.

I would like a public hearing on the DEC's granting of a permit to the Sand Land Mine to continue mining and polluting our ground water in the Hamptons.

Is this how Governor Cuomo demonstrates his commitment to water quality? By letting the NYS DEC turn a blind eye, year after year, to Sand Land's ongoing polluting of our groundwater? The East End and Flint, MI have more in common than you would think.

The Sag Harbor/Noyac community was shocked at the proposed 8 year Mining permit for Sand Land. We had worked so diligently in collecting scientific data - offering presentations to the community of contaminants on our groundwater

Endangering human lives for monetary gains and development is an abuse of power by elected officials who were voted to protect the well being of inhabitants.
