Excerpts from a 2014 letter from the New York State Department of Public Service CEO to the PSEG President: "To enable the affected municipalities to consider alternatives that they consider more acceptable, it is necessary for PSEG-LI to promptly provide the affected municipalities a description of possible alternatives and mitigation measures." "To enable public officials on Long Island to be fully informed of future infrastructure projects it intends to implement in the future, we have asked PSEG-LI to provide to DPS and the affected municipalities its plans for both near and long term projects on Long Island. Staff will work with PSEG-LI to ensure that these plans demonstrate a thoughtful approach to aesthetics, consideration of alternate solutions, and provide adequate advance notice of proposed projects. DPS will make recommendations to ensure that the outreach process is sufficient for affected communities to fully understand the magnitude of the project, be aware of alternatives, and have a meaningful opportunity to provide input." Did PSEG listen?
