This renewable energy purchase agreement is estimated to produce $125M in lower energy costs and savings, increase grid and neighborhood resiliency, create 3,300 new local jobs, infuse over $250M in new economic impact into the region, instill greater budget predictability and stability, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions by over 82,298 metric tons annually.1 ____________________________ 1 100MW of Capacity = 326,988kWh x 365 days per year as per the NREL pvwatts calculator. Removing 119,350,736kWh from grid use eliminates 82,298 metric tons of carbon dioxide from the subscriber’s grid power at 100% use per the EPA—see: https://www.epa.gov/energy/greenhouse-gas- equivalencies-calculator.

The projects are located on the Mohawk River in Saratoga, Albany, and Schenectady Counties, New York. Pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969, as amended, Commission staff intends to prepare an environmental assessment (EA), which will be used by the Commission to determine whether, and under what conditions, to issue new licenses for the projects. To support and assist our environmental review, we are beginning the public scoping process to ensure that all pertinent issues are identified and analyzed, and that the EA is thorough and balanced. Our preliminary review of the scope of environmental issues associated with the proposed relicensing of the projects was described in Scoping Document 1 (SD1), issued June 10, 2019. We requested comments on SD1, conducted an environmental site review, and held scoping meetings on July 10 and 11, 2019, to hear the views of all interested agencies and entities on the scope of issues that should be addressed in the EA.

Canal Corporation Announces Opening of Three Empire State
For Immediate Release: 12/31/20 Contact: Shane Mahar | 518-603-0791 | [email protected] CANAL CORPORATION ANNOUNCES OPENING OF THREE EMPIRE STATE TRAIL SEGMENTS IN THE MOHAWK VALLEY Projects Close Gaps in Trail between Utica and Little Falls The New York State Canal Corporation today announced the opening of three new trail segments along the Empire State Trail in the Mohawk Valley. These new sections fill gaps in the trail allowing users to travel between the City of Utica in Oneida County and Town of Little Falls in Herkimer County. “The opening of the Empire State Trail further demonstrates Governor Cuomo’s commitment to invest in canalside communities and compliments the Reimagine the Canals initiative,” said New York Power Authority President and CEO Gil C. Quiniones. “Together, these investments safeguard the Canal’s role as a driver of economic growth. The Empire State Trail also will improve the quality of life of New Yorkers, while simultaneously showcasing the historic beauty that already exists in the landscape surrounding the canals.” “Governor Cuomo’s vision for the newly-completed Empire State Trail merges economic development with the beautiful views along the Canal system to create exceptional outdoor recreation opportunities, both for residents of canalside communities and for visitors from across New York and beyond,” said New York State Canal Corporation Director Brian U. Stratton. “These new segments of the Empire State Trail reintroduce New Yorkers to the historic towpaths of our state’s storied waterways and connect a new generation to the rich heritage of the New York Canal system.” The three new segments of trail include a 3.8-mile trail from Harbor Lock Road in Utica to Dyke Road in Schuyler, a 1.25-mile trail from Acme Road in Frankfort to the Ilion Marina in Ilion, and a 2-mile trail from the Ilion Marina to East Main Street in Mohawk.
