I am here to help on both fronts.”\r\n Schumer said he is urging the federal EPA to work with the State DEC to ensure ROUTINE air testing that would help alleviate community concerns, but that it should be monitored until a new owner(s) can take the helm of the former plant. Schumer also said the plant could –and should be—a great asset to the county and pledged his full support to making that happen."}}
