EPA provided an update on remediation at the Loeffel Superfund Site. Real progress at the site has come at an environmental cost in others. We have no choice but to call out EPA on their oversight of the polluter’s ongoing illegal discharge of 1,4-dioxane into the Valatie Kill.
It was a packed house in Nassau as the EPA updated residents and officials on remediation efforts at the Dewey Loeffel Superfund Site.
Our thoughts are with the brave men and women on the heights of the Taconic Range again this morning fighting a forest fire. In particular, I’m thinking of our Nassau emergency services partners deployed today. Be safe and thank you.

Honored to address NYSAC’s 98th Annual Fall Conference in Hershey, PA this week.
Connecting with New York’s leading nonprofit executives is a powerful reminder of the incredible service they provide to our communities during their most difficult times.
What an amazing morning with a true American hero. Thank you to Lieutenant Colonel Robert J. Darling USMC (Ret) for your service and reminding us how fortunate we are to be defended by the brave men and women that serve every day.
My friend, Mike Melkonian, was an excellent jurist, loving father and husband, and great confidant. He was a kind friend and counsel to me for years. Remembering my talented friend on the anniversary of his passing.
It was a weekend of indescribable fall beauty in Nassau’s hundreds of acres of public conservation areas. The woods are aglow this week as fall moves at an amazing pace. Come explore the gateway to the Rensselaer Plateau this week. You will be glad you did.
We should all note that moose are no longer unusual sightings here on the Rensselaer Plateau, just a short moose trek away to Troy. We have them around my farm consistently. We need a new approach to their sightings and their habitat corridors.
It’s the start of bow hunting season here on the Rensselaer Plateau. Please be careful in the woods today. Best of luck to all of our hunters.
Nassau is proud of our rich history and amazing natural beauty. As a gateway to the Rensselaer Plateau, we are pleased to welcome visitors to one of the largest and most ecologically intact native habitats in New York State. Immerse yourself outdoors this weekend.
As fall is about to officially begin, it is the perfect time to make sure your house and/or mailbox is adequately marked with your 911 address. At least 3” reflective numbers would be great to help our emergency services partners find you when you need them the most! Thank you!
Did you know the nation’s leading school of hands-on historic preservation is located in Nassau? The Historic Eastfield Foundation holds an open house just one day a year. Come explore this beautiful setting this weekend while you step back in time.
I choose to remain focused on the heroes of that day and those that followed. They ran in as others ran out. When others would sit back, they said “let’s roll.”
In our darkest hour, America, the shining beacon of hope, was a phoenix.
Happy first day of school! Best wishes to all the students, teachers, staff, and parents, as you start the school year. Nassau’s four school districts have a huge impact in so many ways.
Please remember buses are on the road and time your travel accordingly. Have a great year!
A wonderful gift of bounty from a neighbor’s trees. Also, the moment you realize you are adding peaches to your orchard…
An absolutely beautiful day for the Rensselaer County Fair. It was great to see so many people enjoying this amazing weather and to see so many friends.
