Kirsten Gillibrand said "This $14 million federal investment from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law is a major boost for cleaning up contaminated sites across New York that pose serious health and infrastructure risks. The Brownfields program is funding more than a dozen projects, including nearly $1 million for the Shinnecock Nation on Long Island to restore a 65-acre former dump site and an 80-acre tidal wetland. This funding will benefit millions of residents and revive hundreds of acres for public use. By investing in our state’s future, we are creating good jobs and ensuring a healthier, safer environment for generations to come." @ PoliticalQuotes.com
