The Common Council authorized the mayor to execute an Order of Consent/Stipulation with the NYS Department of Conservation. The city had been cited for alleged violations of the Federal Clean Water Act. The city will pay $10,000 and has agreed to other stipulations including submitting a revised operation and maintenance schedule of the West Side Wastewater Treatment Plant.
At its meeting Monday night, the Common Council agreed to the Stipulation and Order set forth by the NYS Department of Health Bureau of Emergency Medical Services regarding violations by the city’s fire department. The state mandated the city pay a $10,000 fine for those violations – $8,000 will be suspended if the department doesn’t violate any other laws.
