SUPPORT BI-PARTISAN LEGISLATURE RESOLUTION TO BAN PENTACHLOROPHENOL

To Friends Who Support The New York State Bi-Partisan Legislature Resolution To Ban Pentachlorophenol: We need to support New York State Assemblyman Fred Thiele and New York State Senator Ken LaValle for the legislation they've introduced into the NYS Legislature to ban pentachlorophenol. Their resolutions have been sent on to the Environmental Conservation Committee for Review. Until two days ago, there were zero public comments under the bills. There needs to be an outpouring of support for this legislation to protect our health and environment. Please go to: http://open.nysenate.gov/legislation/bill/S1879-2015 At the bottom of the page is the comments section. You will have to sign in with facebook, twitter, google or disqus to comment. I registered with disqus. It asked for minimal information and was seconds to do. Then you can type in your comments. Once I finished, I copied and pasted what I wrote and went back to the top of the form and clicked on Assembly Bill 2013. Then I pasted the same information into the assembly bill comment section at the bottom of that page. Disqus will send a confirmation email to you at the email you used to register. You must confirm that it is yours before they will make your comments public. Assemby Bill: A02013  Prohibits the use of pentachlorophenol with regard to new or existing transmission utility poles or facilities. Senate Bill: S01879 Prohibits the use of pentachlorophenol with regard to new or existing transmission utility poles or facilities. These bills will protect our children, ourselves, our pets, our wildlife, our soil and our sole source aquifer water source. In addition, contact your friends and relatives in other parts of New York who have different State Senators and State Assemblymen. Encourage  them to go into the website and write the names of their Legislators on the comments section telling them to support it too. Let’s make New York State the Leader in the Country on this issue.
