A consistent top scorer in our annual Voters’ Guide, this year Lifton distinguished herself from her colleagues thanks to her commitment to ensuring New York’s irreplaceable waters and the health of our families are safeguarded from the dangers of gas drilling by means of hydraulic fracturing, or “fracking.” In 2011, she sponsored several pieces of legislation designed to protect New York’s air, waters, lands, and communities from fracking, and was the prime sponsor of a bill that would clarify local government authority in relation to fracking.

Assembly member Lifton has rallied her colleagues, been outspoken in the press, participated in countless citizen forums, and worked the halls of the Capitol to persuade her peers to put protecting our natural resources ahead of oil and gas company profits. Overall, she has provided a much-needed voice of reason in the State Legislature with regard to the dangers of fracking. For this and many other reasons, she is our 2011 Legislator of the Year. Photo: Flickr/350.org HONORABLE mentions Robert K. Sweeney (D – Lindenhurst) Assembly member Robert Sweeney, Chair of the Assembly’s Environmental Conservation Committee, has been a longtime supporter of environmental protection measures. Under his steadfast leadership, the Assembly passed four of the five 2011 Super Bills (see page 6). Assembly member Sweeney worked especially hard to secure passage of the Water Resources Protection Act. This new law establishes a permitting program for large water withdrawals, providing protection for New York’s most valuable resource—our water. He continues to be the go- to legislator for environmental bills, and for that we are most grateful.

Mark Grisanti (R – Buffalo) Freshman Senator Mark Grisanti showed initiative as Chair of the Senate’s Environmental Conservation Committee this year. He worked hard to steer the Water Resources Protection Act through the Senate. Although the legislation had strong bipartisan backing, it was stalled until the very end of the Legislative Session. Thanks to his unwavering support and effective arm-twisting, the bill made it to the floor for a vote and is now state law. Senator Grisanti also championed a bill to use unclaimed bottle deposits to support the Environmental Protection Fund.

Charles J. Fuschillo (R – Massapequa) Senator Charles Fuschillo was the driving force behind Complete Streets legislation this year, a Super Bill and top priority for the environmental community and our transportation colleagues. This new law requires transportation projects eligible for state and federal funding to consider incorporating features that encourage walking, biking, and alternative modes of transportation. When implemented, Complete Streets features get cars off the road, reduce pollution, and make our streets safer for all of us. 4 OIL SLICK award

Lee Zeldin (R – Hauppauge) Freshman Senator Lee Zeldin earns this dubious honor for his efforts to harm New York’s air, land, and water. Despite being one of the newest players in the upper house, he distinguished himself by pushing a few really bad bills. Senator Zeldin sponsored the only bill worthy of three smokestacks in 2011—a bill that would defund the MTA and result in service cuts and fare increases, and discourage the use of public transit. That would increase climate pollution and traffic congestion—bad news for our air quality and for people with asthma.

But what put this bill over the top was the provision to send money from the state’s clean energy programs to plug holes in the MTA’s finances. Talk about robbing Peter to pay Paul. Long Islanders are especially sensitive to raiding funds to fill budget gaps based on recent experiences with the state’s Environmental Protection Fund, from which hundreds of millions of dollars have been raided. Thankfully, this dirty bill didn’t pass both houses.

Senator Zeldin also worked tirelessly to repeal the state’s saltwater fishing license, which was intended to make saltwater fishermen pay for the cost of the Department of Environmental Conservation’s (DEC) oversight. The loss of revenue from this repealed license would have cost the DEC $2 million, but now thanks to Zeldin, freshwater fishermen across the state and John Q. Taxpayer are subsiding Long Island fishermen.

The Senator also sponsored a bill to allow the Village of Patchogue to divert funds meant for sewage infrastructure improvements to other projects. This is especially appalling given that in 2009, the State Comptroller cited the village as a community with aging sewer and wastewater infrastructure in desperate need of repair.

Senator Zeldin is a man with a mission—and that mission is attacking public transit. For his lack of commitment to protecting our air, land, wildlife, and waters, EPL/ Environmental Advocates gave Lee Zeldin our 2011 Oil Slick Award. We hope next year we can help the Senator start off on better footing.

what YOU can do now that you know the score

Hold legislators accountable. If they voted to weaken New York’s environmental safeguards, send lawmakers a note expressing your disapproval. If your legislators are working to protect New York’s environment, write to thank them.

Vote at the local, state, and federal level. Your vote is critical when it comes to whether or not New York State protects the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the health of our families.

Contact your lawmakers. The New York State Legislature is in regular session every year from January to June. While they are scheduled to meet for six months, in recent years budget negotiations have led to lengthier sessions and “special sessions.” Write your legislators: New York State Assembly, Albany, NY 12248 or New York State Senate, Albany, NY 12247.

Find out who represents you. Visit www.assembly.state.ny.us or www.senate.state.ny.us or call the New York State Senate at (518) 455-2800 or the State Assembly at (518) 455-4100.

Support our work. Visit www.eplvotersguide.org to support New York’s first environmental advocacy group working in the state capital.
