On February 8, 2010, Schumer joined Patchogue Village Mayor Paul V. Pontieri, Jr. at the groundbreaking ceremony for the Wastewater Treatment Facility Upgrade and Expansion. The project, which involves the upgrade and expansion of the Village's Wastewater Treatment Plant will create local jobs, make necessary infrastructure upgrades and boost economic development in the community. Schumer fought hard to see funding for this project included in the Recovery Act. For further information on Chuck Schumer please visit www.schumer.senate.gov
