    1 Terminal Drive, Plainview, New York 11803 • Phone (516) 677-0200 • Fax (516) 719-1200 • www.veeco.com Honorable Jaclyn A. Brilling Secretary New York State Public Service Commission 3 Empire State Plaza Albany, New York 12223-1350 July 25, 2011 Honorable Jaclyn A. Brilling: Veeco Instruments is a global leader in developing process equipment technology headquartered in Plainview, New York. The reason for writing you now is to express our appreciation for your support in the U.S. PhotoVoltaic Consortium (PVMC) which is led by the College of Nanoscale Science and Engineering (CNSE) in partnership with SEMATECH. This initiative, supported by funding from the U.S. Department of Energy, as well as the state of New York in the area of clean energy, specifically PV solar technology is critical for the survival of the remaining U.S. based PV industry. As a developer and manufacturer of process equipment in New York the decision to support and partner with PVMC was simple, if PVMC is successful, New York and in turn the nation will be successful. In the PV solar industry, like many others, the U.S. leads in innovation, but falls behind in manufacturing. PVMC is dedicated to revitalizing the manufacturing part of the PV value chain. Current investments in PVMC will allow for New York based companies to obtain a larger market share while improving U.S. competitiveness in this growing area. The partnership of NYSERDA in PVMC is very much welcomed, however, further funding under the Systems Benefit Charge IV would provide allow for the development of more projects thereby shortening the time for the development and deployment of PV products resulting in achieving the DOE’s goal of $1/watt installed price.

  • Then & Now: Albany, the South Mall and a Neighborhood Lost
    Then & Now: Albany, the South Mall and a Neighborhood Lost City Engineer, Public Works Negatives, 1930-1949. From the Archival Collection of the Albany County Hall of Records. The Princess and “The Gut” 89-01830. Private Donor. Netherlands Royal Family Visit to Albany Photo Collection. Princess Beatrix of the Netherlands, Governor Nelson Rockefeller and Mayor Erastus Corning, September, 1959. “The South Mall will be the greatest single governmental office complex history has ever known.” – Mayor Erastus Corning 2nd In September of 1959, Princess Beatrix of the Netherlands came to Albany, New York to commemorate the 350th anniversary of Henry Hudson’s exploratory voyage on the Hudson River at the Hudson-Champlain Celebration. While giving the young royal a tour of downtown Albany, Governor Nelson A. Rockefeller felt embarrassed by the deteriorating South End neighborhood referred to by some as “The Gut,” an area of many dilapidated buildings and vacant structures. Albany Mayor Erastus Corning 2nd told the Knickerbocker News in 1979 that: “Rockefeller thought [the] buildings the Princess and those with her saw were not as good-looking or appropriate for a capital city as he thought they should be.” In an attempt to revitalize Albany and transform it into a city outsiders would deem worthy of being New York’s capital, Rockefeller proposed the construction of a large, modern governmental complex. In order to create this lavish site he envisioned, Rockefeller seized 98.5 acres of land in Albany’s South End through eminent domain in 1962 and demolition soon began. As a result, thousands of families and business owners lost their properties and were forced to relocate.
