POUGHKEEPSIE, NY -- New York State Senator Terry Gipson (D-Dutchess, Putnam) issued the following statement on the Public Service Commission (PSC) extending the public comment period for the suggested transmission line project that would potentially impact the towns of Clinton, Hyde Park, Milan and Pleasant Valley by 60 days, making the new deadline February 21:
"I commend the PSC for listening to the concerns of residents, local organizations and myself by extending the public comment period.
