Citing ‘Bombshell’ Report, Senator Refutes Coast Guard Barge Proposal

Citing a "bombshell" report released by Pace University, New York State Sen. Sue Serino has joined the cacophony of elected officials in the Hudson Valley that are protesting a proposal from the Coast Guard that would create anchorage sites for barges along the Hudson River. In September, the Westchester County Board of Legislators unanimously passed a resolution opposing the Coast Guard's plan, which would include the installation of 16 anchor berths across 715 acres on the water between Yonkers and the Dobbs Ferry Train Station.
