County Takes ‘The Bull By The Horns’ Over Indian Point, Astorino Says

County, school and local governments are going to have to "take the bull by the horns" if Westchester is to survive the financial fallout of Indian Point's closure, says County Executive Rob Asterino. Gov. Andrew Cuomo startled everyone from local officials to environmental groups this month when he announced that the Buchanan facility would be shuttered in stages, from 2020 to 2021, 13 and 14 years earlier, respectively, than required under the anticipated federal re-licensing terms.
