Closed due to flooding, this Rome elementary school could be rebuilt. What's stalling it

ICYMI: A MAJOR bill passed in NY yesterday - amending our broken flood disclosure law that allowed sellers to pay $500 to opt-out of providing property-specific information on flood history and risk!

We now have a flood risk right-to-know for buyers and renters! #Rise2Resilience

Efforts to tackle PFAS contamination of America’s drinking water have begun. This will be a long road. The polluters must pay, and this is a start. #pfas #cleanwaterforall via ⁦@nytimes⁩ https://t.co/yNwK9ZdpDc

[Rob Hayes @RJamesHayes]

It’s official: the Lead Pipe Right to Know Act has passed both the Senate and Assembly!

A huge thanks to @AmyPaulin @NYSenatorRivera @CarlHeastie @AndreaSCousins for their commitment to getting the lead out of drinking water.

On to @GovKathyHochul! @greenwatchdogNY

DYK: The average dam in NYSis 86 years old, compared to the national average of 57 years.
Adirondack dams have been around even longer—nearly 90 years on average. Indian Lake Stone Dam, an unsound high hazard dam, was constructed 125 years ago.

Huge news! We have the support of the Majority Leader for bringing new federal funds to the Hudson River! The Long Island Sound and Great Lakes benefit from these funds - now it’s time for the nation’s most populated waterway to get in on the action! TY @SenSchumer @gillibrandny.

[Dan Shapley @danshapley]

Proposed EPA #PFAS standards will help protect many more people from risky exposures. And chemical companies should foot the bill.

A bill being considered by the Massachusetts Legislature would compensate communities in western Massachusetts that steward the drinking water for millions of people in greater Boston.

Though you may not live on a stream, creek, or river, you’re always in a watershed. If you have a lawn, your lawn care and garden practices can help or harm local waters. Thanks to @ccecornell , @NYSDEC , & Canandaigua Lake Watershed Association for the info!
