Investing in an inclusive & sustainable future
New York provides unparalleled economic, cultural and social opportunities. But is it doing all it can to provide sustainability and liveability? This is a growing concern for all of us, as the environment in our cities and communities undergo rapid change. In 2018, Vienna, Austria was named the Most Liveable City in the world by The Economist’s Intelligence Unit. Why? The Global Liveability Index looks at factors such as inequality, healthcare, culture and the environment, as well as infrastructure like affordable housing and transit. These issues are among the most important factors influencing one’s ability to participate in society and feel confident that they can achieve their personal and professional goals. These factors determine how well we can live today and in the future. These are some of the issues that TD is addressing through The Ready Commitment and its four drivers of change – Financial Security, Vibrant Planet, Connected Communities and Better Health. We believe that when those four basic needs are met, people are more confident about the future. We know that cities are the heart of commerce, culture and innovation. Increasingly, these are the places where we live, work and play and home to most of the world’s population. According to the United Nations, today North America is the most urbanized region in the world with 82 percent of the population living in urban areas – but only a handful of U.S. cities ranked within the top 20 on the Global Liveability Index. As our cities rapidly grow, they are faced with challenges like
affordability, climate change and community dynamics. But like you, I believe that cities hold some of the greatest opportunities to create and advance inclusive, sustainable and equitable growth. That’s why through The Ready Commitment, TD supports initiatives that we believe can help people today and also provide the tools they will need to meet the demands and challenges of the future. With our Vibrant Planet driver, we focus on supporting the transition to a low-carbon economy and enhancing green spaces to help address the impacts of climate change.
individuals, communities and small businesses. We provided $2.1M to support small business coaching through a partnership with the NFCC and SBO. Through our inaugural Ready Challenge grant competition, we awarded close to $4M to nonprofit organizations who are offering scalable solutions to the digital upskilling needed for tomorrow’s workforce. The TD Charitable Foundation disbursed 550 grants providing $13M of funding to help community nonprofits advance financial security and we served as a sponsor of 113 community initiatives focused on financial security, contributing $532K. Our Connected Communities driver driver helps to amplify diverse voices in the arts and increase access to cultural events that bring more people together in their community. We have invested $5.7M through 375 grants to bring this initiative to life throughout our footprint. Additionally, TD sponsored 443 cultural events and programs with $1.8M.
Here in New York, TD has advanced this initiative by investing over $250K to support the greening of the High Line and to fund the High Line Honey Harvest, enhancing awareness of the vital role played by one of the world’s protected species, pollinating bees. Through our partnership with the City Parks Foundation, we enabled over 900 parks improvement projects in 2018 across all five boroughs and provided significant monetary support to the Seeds to Trees Program. In our collaboration with the Citizens Committee for New York City, we empowered 24 groups to activate and execute public space and park enhancements in Staten Island and Brooklyn.
As part of our Better Health driver, we are investing in innovative solutions to help improve access to, and quality of, health care. Through 75 grants to healthcare organizations, the Foundation invested $907K and TD participated as a community sponsor of 69 initiatives enhancing wellness with a $267K investment. I invite you to join us and learn how we can work together to insure a more sustainable, liveable and inclusive tomorrow for all New Yorkers. www.td.com/thereadycommitment

THE
EDITOR’S NOTE
REP. ALEXANDRIA OCASIO-CORTEZ has popularized the idea of a “Green New Deal,” proposing an array of initiatives to slash greenhouse gas emissions, create millions of new clean energy jobs, upgrade the country’s infrastructure and ensure environmental equality for all. By her estimate, it would take just 10 years. However, given the opposition by the White House and the Republican-controlled U.S. Senate, it may take a decade just to build enough political support for such a proposal, let alone find the funding for it. It was President Donald Trump, after all, who pulled the country out of the Paris climate agreement. In the meantime, Ocasio-Cortez’s fellow New Yorkers are doing what they can. The New York City Council just passed its own ambitious environmental legislation, including a measure to curb greenhouse gas emissions from buildings. Council members also targeted power plants, paper bags and a natural gas pipeline – and promise more environmental legislation to come. The state Legislature may follow suit with its own climate protection legislation, which could put New York at the forefront of the nation. And both the city and the state are advancing resiliency measures – though experts say much more still needs to be done. To mark Earth Day, our 2019 sustainability issue covers all of these stories this week – and more.

Latest NADLER’S NEXT STEPS Rep. Jerrold Nadler, the Manhattan congressman who chairs the House Judiciary Committee, issued a subpoena on Friday seeking the entire unredacted Mueller report. Nadler, who has tangled with Trump before, demanded the document and all related evidence be turned over by May 1. Nadler has also attacked Barr, accusing him of “waging a media campaign on behalf of President Trump.”
FLEEING NYC?
For the first time in years, New York City’s population dropped, according to the Census Bureau. The latest estimates show the city lost 40,000 people last year, although New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio’s administration questioned the count. If there is in fact a downturn, the city would be following the lead of New York state, which saw its population decline continue. And if the trend continues, New York could soon lose congressional seats.
SPECIAL REPORT U.S. Attorney General William Barr released the redacted special counsel report on Russian meddling in the 2016 election. Barr defended President Donald Trump in a prerelease press conference, but the report’s findings were damaging for the White House. While the report didn’t make the case for bringing obstruction of justice charges, it found Trump sought repeatedly to shut down Robert Mueller’s inquiry – and he may have been saved by aides’ refusal to do so.

Kicker
Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney was a formidable fundraiser in the state attorney general campaign, with support from the financial sector. Do you expect Wall Street to support him, or will they be on your side? I think that I will have the financial industry on my side. Some people support him as well. That’s fine. But I’m really just focused on my campaign and making sure that I can get the message out. He started out as a sort of moderate representative. And he’s moved further and further to the left. He’s now a cosponsor of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s “Green New Deal.” This is what, expected to cost $93 trillion, a number that nobody can wrap their arms around. But what they do understand is it’s $600,000 per family. That’s just too much. You lived in Manhattan before. What are you connections to the Hudson Valley? I have a house in Tuxedo Park, and I live in Tuxedo. I’ve got a 12-year-old son who loves having a
backyard. And the city has really just been so difficult because of New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Chasing Amazon away is not the answer. And again, on the Green New Deal and all of this, we’ve got to be pragmatic and think about what’s really going to work for hardworking families. Again, that’s lowering taxes, reducing our energy costs and improving our infrastructure. Did you already have the place in Tuxedo Park or did you buy it recently? Recently. The Hudson Valley has a history of socalled carpetbagger candidates. How are you going to prove to the district you’re their best representative? Absolutely, and I think the answer is to meet as many people and hear their concerns and talk to them and prove that I will be a better representative than Sean Patrick Maloney.

THE ICONIC FASHION CHOICES OF NEW YORK POLITICIANS

POLITICIANS LIKE TO stand out from the crowd. Some do it naturally, like the world’s tallest politician, New York City Councilman Robert Cornegy Jr. Others do it with style. Back in the 1970s, the trailblazing Rep. Bella Abzug of Manhattan wore outlandish hats to differentiate herself from the predominantly female secretaries. Now Abzug has a number of sartorial descendants in modern politics, extending beyond millinery to scarves, shirts, jackets and shades.

N MARCH, NEW YORK CITY Mayor Bill de Blasio rolled out an enormous and headline-grabbing proposal to prepare lower Manhattan for the effects of climate change. In a press conference and an article for New York magazine, the mayor described a plan to extend the island into the East River by two city blocks. The Lower Manhattan Coastal Resiliency Project is ambitious, expensive and, as the magazine pointed out in a subsequent article, “pretty vague.” It prompted a slew of questions and prominent among them was how the estimated $10 billion price tag would be covered. Others wondered about the fairness of fortifying lower Manhattan while leaving other, less wealthy neighborhoods to fend for themselves. “If we’re going to implore Washington for billions of dollars, we should come up with a comprehensive plan that protects the entire city,” New York City Councilman Costa Constantinides and Nilda Mesa, the former director of the Mayor’s Office of Sustainability, wrote in an op-ed. De Blasio’s proposed landfill project would be used for parkland to soak up storm surges, rather than for housing or offices. But New Yorkers are increasingly drawn to living or working on the waterfront and developers are eager to give them what they want. Last year, the real estate data website Localize.city found that 1 in 8 new apartments under construction or planned in the city were in high-risk flood zones, the majority in the hip Brooklyn and Queens neighborhoods of Williamsburg, Greenpoint and Long Island City, strung along the East River and Newtown Creek. The massive Hudson Yards project rising on Manhattan’s West Side is in a location that could be underwater by the end of the century if sea levels rise 8 feet. The Rockaways and the banks of the Gowanus Canal are getting new housing; even Brooklyn’s Coney Island and Sheepshead Bay and the South Bronx’s Mott Haven are getting new luxury high-rises near the waterfront. New York City’s first outlet mall is coming to Staten Island’s North Shore. Many of these new developments, and others such as office and retail projects in Brooklyn’s Sunset Park, are taking over industrial blocks that have sat vacant or underused for years. Amazon planned its now-scuttled headquarters in Queens’ low-lying Anable Basin. While the city’s recently updated building codes and forward-thinking design probably would’ve protected Amazon’s headquarters, neighborhood residents wondered if the project would’ve simply redirected rising waters elsewhere, into less prepared, less affluent areas. In New York City and the region, preparing for a changing climate has been uneven. Some communities have plans in place for sea levels that may be 2 1/2 feet higher by mid-century; others are merely bracing for the next major storm. Across New York, 269,165 homes are in the 100-year flood plain – the fourth most of any state in the nation – according to a 2017 analysis by the NYU Furman Center. That means those homes have a 1 percent chance of flooding in a given year, a chance that is increasing with climate change. “There are a lot of different neighborhoods, and they’re

taking different approaches,” Robert Freudenberg, the vice president of energy and environment for the Regional Plan Association, told City & State. “The mayor’s recent proposal for lower Manhattan – you can argue the merits of it, you can argue the funding streams of it – but it does take seriously the long-term threat to lower Manhattan. In suburban communities, it’s been a little harder. I think that the focus in suburbs, on Long Island in particular, has been still recovery from (Superstorm) Sandy or response to Sandy: How do we deal with the storm that comes along periodically?” Whether or not New York and its environs are ready, the waters are coming. That fact was underlined the day after the mayor’s big proposal when, to considerably less fanfare, the New York City Panel on Climate Change – a body made up of top climate scientists, urban planners and risk management experts – released its third report. Unlike previous reports by the panel, this one spent a good deal of time examining a scenario that scientists have been warning of in recent years: the possibility that humans won’t heed urgent warnings in time, or that climate change will reach the worst extreme of its possible outcomes, and large parts of Antarctica will just melt. If that happened, bringing upward of 9 feet of sea level rise in the second half of this century, the result would be catastrophic for New York City and the area around it. To prepare for the sea level rise and floods to come, then-Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s 2007 PlaNYC laid out a slate of proposals based on sea level rise projections of 2 feet by 2050 and projected sea level rise out to more than 2 1/2 feet in the 2080s. In 2013, months before he left office, Bloomberg released a comprehensive, $19.5 billion plan for “A Stronger, More Resilient New York.” It included proposals strengthening building codes, requiring that critical building equipment be elevated above anticipated flood levels, updating zoning, rebuilding damaged housing stock and updating public housing. He also called for the construction of flood walls, storm surge barriers and dune systems to decrease the impacts of floods throughout the city. The plan came along with updated Federal Emergency Management Agency flood maps, which previously had relied on data from 1983, and updated projections of sea level rise from the New York City Panel on Climate Change, now showing 2 1/2 feet by 2050. At a press conference, Bloomberg leaned into the looming battle: “As New Yorkers, we cannot and will not abandon our waterfront. It’s one of our greatest assets. We must protect it, not retreat from it.” After Superstorm Sandy, regulatory changes to brace for more frequent floods have continued. New York City changed the zoning for neighborhoods that already

see periodic flooding during full moon high tides and that were hit hard by Sandy, including Queens’ Broad Channel and Hamilton Beach. These new zoning codes will prevent these neighborhoods from growing denser. City building codes now also require higher elevation for new construction or substantial improvements to existing buildings in flood hazard areas. The latest revisions of the codes, in March, encourage builders to take into account that seas could rise 18 to 39 inches by the 2080s. Projections suggest possible outcomes worse than that: Seas could rise by more than 58 inches by 2080, and more than 75 inches by 2100, according to the New York City Panel on Climate Change. Would such dramatic sea level rise catch New York off guard? “The science says that one, whatever happens, these high-end outcomes are very sensitive to emissions, and two, they’re also quite sensitive to us being unlucky with physics,” said Robert Kopp, a climate scientist at Rutgers University and co-author of the New York City Panel on Climate
Change’s recent report. “And we just don’t know enough to say whether we’re lucky or unlucky. So the approach you want to take if possible is a flexible approach.” This kind of catastrophe is not a given. The panel’s report called it “a new, physically plausible upper-end, low probability” scenario, “one with significantly less than 10% likelihood of occurrence by 2100.” However, as the years pass and global greenhouse gas emissions keep rising, the likelihood that high-end scenarios for sea level rise come to fruition keep growing, and the question of whether New York City and state are ready for the possibility becomes more urgent.

dent Donald Trump announced his intention to withdraw the United States from the Paris agreement and his administration is unwinding Obama-era carbon emission regulations. Some countries, particularly in Asia, are increasing their number of coal-fired power plants. Carbon dioxide levels reached an all-time high in 2018. If the world continues on this path, the Atlantic coast may be facing several more feet of sea level rise by the end of the century than previously projected. With 8 feet of sea level rise, parts of southeastern Queens and southern Brooklyn, including nearly all of the Rockaways, Howard Beach, Coney Island and Canarsie, would be underwater. The East and Hudson rivers would take several bites out of Manhattan, including much of the East Village. Red Hook in Brooklyn and Long Island City in Queens would also be largely below sea level. The southern shores of Staten Island and Long Island would be reshaped; on Long Island, the barrier islands where New Yorkers go to soak up the sun – Jones
Beach, Fire Island, the dunes off the coast of the Hamptons – would be virtually eliminated. Few ocean-facing communities on the island wouldn’t see neighborhoods disappear. More frequent and severe storm surges would drive waters still higher. By 2050, a 100-year flood could reach more than 13 feet above sea level. By 2100, the New York City Panel on Climate Change’s high-end estimate for a 100-year flood is 17.6 feet, increasing to 20.7 feet if Antarctica’s ice melts rapidly. The chance that homeowners with a 30-year mortgage will see a 100-year flood during the term of their mortgage is onethird. (Superstorm Sandy was somewhere between a 100-year flood and a 500-year flood, according to the New York City Department of City Planning.) By 2100, today’s 100-year flood – something slightly less dramatic than what Superstorm Sandy brought – could come every 10 years. That’s bad news for new projects in places that were flooded during Sandy, such as Coney Island, the Rockaways and Long Island’s barrier islands. New York City, and many Long Island communities, are not ignoring these risks. The city Department of City Planning is preparing to make permanent emergency zoning rules that were put in place on a temporary basis after Superstorm Sandy, and expand the area they cover. These rules were meant to remove any regulatory hurdles that might prevent homeowners from making improvements, such as elevating their living space and key infrastructure, to prepare their homes for the next flood. In addition to making these codes permanent, the planning department told City & State it intends to expand the area these codes cover to neighborhoods with a 0.2% chance of a flood – a swath that includes nearly 800,000 New Yorkers. The building codes and zoning changes would require new and renovated buildings to be prepared to withstand storms.

They’re not mandatory, however, for existing structures, potentially leaving many older buildings in New York City’s flood plains vulnerable. Meanwhile, even buildings that are prepared for rising waters could find themselves in neighborhoods that are not. “Those buildings themselves may be OK because they are actually constructed in such a way that they can flood,” Klaus Jacob, a research scientist at Columbia University, told NPR. “But people may not be able to get in and out of those buildings because the streets are flooded.” Many New Yorkers could find themselves spending time in Venice-like neighborhoods, living and working in communities surrounded by water. “In areas where people are going to see sunny day flooding in their backyards in 2050 – or already, as is the case in some neighborhoods – we don’t have a clear plan for whether we need to provide more resources for relocation or rebuilding in place than we’ve already got,” said Kate Boicourt, director of resilience for the Waterfront Alliance, a nonprofit group that advocates for policy related to New York City’s waterfronts. Some of New York’s new jobs are also in low-lying waterfront areas, such as tech and manufacturing campuses in Brooklyn’s Dumbo and Sunset Park. “What we have known for quite a while continues to get worse,” said Edgar Westerhof, the national director for flood risk and resiliency for Arcadis North America, a design, engineering and consulting company that has worked on many of New York City’s coastal resiliency projects. “That is indeed reason for our city leadership to rethink what we are doing, because there’s still quite a bit of development happening in low-lying places where you may wonder if that’s a good place, in a flood plain.” While particularly acute in the city, where demand for living space is high, the issue also extends to Long Island where residents, who struggled to recover from Superstorm Sandy, have raised concerns about the wisdom of building new homes in flood-prone areas. Those projects include developments on Long Island’s South Shore meant as affordable housing, such as one such controversial project in Babylon that mixes NIMBYism with concerns about future floods. “It’s 2 to 3 feet every time it rains,” one resident told Newsday of a Sandy-damaged lot slotted for an affordable housing development. “You cannot put a house there.” In some of the most vulnerable areas affected by Superstorm Sandy, homeowners were given incentives not to return. In Oakwood Beach, a community on Staten Island’s eastern shore, where the majority of residents took state-offered buyouts, the community today is returning to nature, and will be a buffer zone when the next

storm slams into the island. Hundreds of residents in Long Island’s Suffolk County also participated in the state buyout program, though Nassau County chose not to opt in, fearing the loss of property tax revenue from leaving such areas uninhabited. These sorts of programs will have to become more common. New York City should begin to weigh “paradigm-shifting concepts such as strategic relocation programs on flood plains and densification on high ground,” according to the New York City Panel on Climate Change report. In order to prepare for the future that could be in store, the city’s population – and the state’s – would have to shift out of the ocean’s way. While previous buyout programs have largely been reactive – following a storm, such as Superstorm Sandy – experts recommend that New York City and state need to begin considering buyouts before disaster
strikes. “In general, I think it is better to do this sort of planning in a flexible approach, thought out over the course of several decades, as opposed to what the alternative is – which is basically post-disaster relocation, and which is when most relocations and buyouts tend to happen,” Kopp said. That is a tricky and loaded conversation that few policymakers have been eager to have. “When we start talking about relocation, it sort of takes away the agency of decision-making from an individual that might have ended up (in a flood-prone area) because they don’t have a lot of options,” Boicourt said. “I think the bigger challenge is that if we don’t have that conversation now, which is going to be a super hairy one, the people that are going to lose out the most are those that don’t have resources.” The debate between planned retreat and fortification is a lively one, with some ex-
perts urging New York City to entirely prevent development in neighborhoods that look likely to be submerged in the future. The National Flood Insurance Program has a designation called “repetitive loss” for buildings that are damaged multiple times in a 10-year period. Some experts, including those behind the Regional Plan Association’s Fourth Regional Plan, suggest those could be a place to consider an end to development. “Any areas that are repetitive loss, that’s probably where you should start with a moratorium; maybe after the storm, don’t build it back,” said Freudenberg, of the Regional Plan Association. “Start adding these designations into master plans and things like that. This is where policy needs to change as well, both at the state and local levels. If we know where the risk is and we know where the damage occurred, it’s time now to put an end to developing in these places.” Yet such a moratorium would constrain an already tight market. In New York City and the surrounding area, rents are rising along with the seas. New York City’s astronomical costs for housing and office space create plenty of demand for waterfront properties that take advantage of the few remaining convenient locations that aren’t already fully built out.

N TOTAL, the cost of climate change preparation will dwarf the $10 billion for de Blasio’s Lower Manhattan Coastal Resiliency Project – assuming the money can be found. In addition to buying out homeowners, there’s also the cost of the new infrastructure to fortify communities that stay put.

These can take the form of parks to absorb storm surges, such as a new one recently opened off Hunter’s Point South in Queens; resiliency projects to shore up streambanks and improve drainage funded by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development along the banks of the Mill River on Long Island; or massive infrastructure projects of the type we expect to find protecting New Orleans and the Gulf Coast – sea walls, levees and floodgates, often maintained by the Army Corps of Engineers. Some initial attempts provide cautionary tales about the need for community input. For example, the $1.45 billion project that includes a massive sea wall along Manhattan’s Lower East Side – residents have objected to recent changes in the plan, particularly a proposal that would bury East River Park beneath up to 10 feet of landfill, on top of which a new park would be built. Residents felt the city abandoned a plan on which they had given substantial input for one on which they had little. “The way this planning is being done is disempowering,” Vaylateena Jones, a 50-year Lower East Side resident, was quoted saying during a January community board meeting by the Times. “City officials collaborated with us over four years and came up with a detailed

design – only to now return with this entirely new design. Do our voices even matter?” A larger project to protect New York City’s harbor – a 5-mile storm surge protection wall running from Breezy Point on the southern tip of the Rockaways to Sandy Hook, New Jersey – is the most sweeping of a slate of proposals by the Army Corps of Engineers which have proven controversial, drawing denunciations from environmental groups, which say these extreme measures would destroy aquatic life. “If we take the Lower Manhattan Coastal Resiliency Project, or the East Side Coastal Resiliency Project, or Amazon, there’s a common thread there which is discontinuous public engagement or a lack of public engagement,” Boicourt said. “I think that is very concerning for setting the stage for decisions that we are making that are going to last generations.” This, along with the uneven approach to planning across the city and region and the need to mobilize massive amounts of funding, have all led to calls for a citywide or regional government entity to manage climate adaptation, overseeing the work of various government agencies and collecting input from citizens. Nilda Mesa, the former de Blasio official who now heads Columbia University’s Cen-
11
ter for Sustainable Urban Development, described a “comprehensive approach and strategy managed by one entity that is answerable to city residents, that conducts its processes in a transparent way and that relies on the best science and engineering.” “We’re all in this together,” she added. “We need to be talking to our neighbors as well, New Jersey and Long Island.” In February, New York City Councilman Costa Constantinides introduced legislation that would create such an entity. Preparing the region for the worst-case scenario New York might face between 2050 and 2100 presents a political challenge: Are elected officials, dealing with urgent, immediate needs and facing reelection every four years, going to spend money today to prepare for a future they may not even live to see? As emissions continue to rise globally – despite the city’s successful efforts to cut its own – the reality that the coastlines in the region will change, as will the way people live along them, is becoming increasingly unavoidable.

HE DAMAGE THAT Superstorm Sandy inflicted on New York City in 2012 is a stark reminder of what can happen to an unprepared city. Despite efforts to better equip low-lying land with flood protection and resiliency measures, major developments in these areas remain vulnerable to rising sea levels. While many of the city’s biggest developments are in Manhattan, each borough has at least a few projects that fall into future flood zones.

Using FEMA’s 100-year flood plain map, City & State identified a few atrisk developments in progress or recently completed, and what their builders are doing to mitigate that risk.
DEVELOPER: Silverstein Properties STATUS: Partially complete Planning for the redevelopment of the World Trade Center began in 2002, and since then One World Trade Center and 3 World Trade Center have been completed. But flooding of the National September 11 Memorial & Museum and other parts of the site during Superstorm Sandy exposed the area’s vulnerability. In 2015, the Port Authority approved more than $100 million to install mitigation and resiliency measures, including flood barriers and a series of vehicle and pedestrian flood doors, gates, grates and backflow preventers at the site.
HUDSON YARDS DEVELOPER: Related Cos. STATUS: Partially complete Hudson Yards had its official opening earlier this year, and although 50 Hudson
Yards is still under construction, much of the site is open for renters, shoppers and the public. To mitigate the flood risk, most buildings are raised about 40 feet above sea level, and mechanical systems within the buildings have been sealed with waterproof doors.
ONE MANHATTAN SQUARE DEVELOPER: Extell Development Co. STATUS: Complete Within a radius of a few blocks in the Two Bridges neighborhood, a series of skyscrapers are going up, and the condo development at One Manhattan Square is the latest to open its doors to residents. Situated close to the East River, most of those planned or completed skyscrapers are well within the city’s 100-year flood plain. The develop-
er did not respond to requests for comment about any mitigation measures at the site.
45 BROAD STREET DEVELOPERS: Madison Equities, Pizzarotti LLC and Gemdale Corp. STATUS: In progress A towering residential development in the Financial District is set to become the tallest residential structure in lower Manhattan. Excavation on the site began last year, and construction is still in its early phases. But with its neighbor 75 Broad Street having experienced extensive flooding during Superstorm Sandy, mitigation measures would not be out of the question for 45 Broad Street. The developer did not respond to requests for comment about any mitigation measures at the site.

vulnerability to rising sea levels. To compensate, all current buildings are elevated several feet above the city’s 500-year flood plain – the areas with a 0.2% chance of flooding each year.
BRONX POINT
ANABLE BASIN DEVELOPER: Plaxall Inc. STATUS: Proposed The expansive industrial landscape around Anable Basin in Long Island City, Queens, briefly had a big-name tenant lined up with Amazon’s plans to build a second headquarters on parts of the site. Before that deal fell through, Plaxall had proposed a rezoning for a mix of residential, commercial and manufacturing structures. Amazon hadn’t released any plans for flood resilience measures, but Plaxall has acknowledged a need for mitigation.
HUNTER’S POINT SOUTH DEVELOPERS: Gotham Organization, RiseBoro Community Partnership, Related Cos., Phipps Houses, Monadnock Construction, TF Cornerstone STATUS: Partially complete Much of the Hunter’s Point South mixed-use waterfront development in Long Island City, Queens, is complete, with 11 acres of waterfront green space open to the public and more affordable housing development underway. Despite sitting in a precarious location, the park along the waterfront was designed to act as a marsh when tides rise. The measures proved effective during the first phase of construction, holding back flooding from Superstorm Sandy.
seems to be constantly growing, with developers announcing in March that two new residential towers would be added to the already sizeable complex. In 2017, the Waterfront Alliance awarded phase one of the development an honor for excellence in waterfront design for promoting resiliency with measures including terraced promenades and mechanical equipment rooms located above flood elevation.
CORNELL TECH DEVELOPER: Hudson Cos., Related Cos., Forest City Realty Trust STATUS: Partially complete Officially opened in 2017, the Cornell Tech campus on Roosevelt Island is one of the drivers of New York’s growing tech ecosystem. But with plans to expand the campus, developers will need to keep the Earth’s ecosystem in mind with the area’s
GREENPOINT LANDING DEVELOPERS: Brookfield Properties, Park Tower Group, L+M Development Partners, Greenpoint Landing Developers STATUS: Partially complete The megadevelopment in Brooklyn
Hudson Yards, the gleaming new city within a city on Manhattan’s West Side, was designed with resiliency to flooding in mind.
DEVELOPERS: L+M Development Partners and Type A Projects STATUS: Breaking ground A mixed-use development that will include the Universal Hip Hop Museum and affordable housing broke ground this winter, with its first phase including some affordable housing as well as public performance and art spaces. The developer did not respond to requests for comment about any mitigation measures at the site.
ST. GEORGE WATERFRONT/EMPIRE OUTLETS/LIGHTHOUSE POINT DEVELOPERS: BFC Partners, Triangle Equities STATUS: Partially complete Another waterfront development project – this one in Staten Island – aims to transform the industrial waterfront into a public, commercial and residential hub. All that’s missing is the now-scuttled New York Wheel. Though the city’s flood plain doesn’t extend as far into Staten Island’s North Shore as it does into lower Manhattan, the developments along the St. George waterfront fall within future flood zones. In 2017, the area was granted $20 million from Empire State Development for flood protection measures, including barriers and surge walls.

ROCKAWAY BOARDWALK STATUS: Complete Much of the boardwalk along Rockaway Beach was damaged or destroyed during Superstorm Sandy. While New York City could have simply rebuilt the structure, officials opted to construct a concrete promenade that acts as a flood barrier using resilient materials like sunken steel pilings coated in epoxy.
The newly reconstructed Rockaway Boardwalk also acts as a concrete defense against future storms.
STATEN ISLAND SEA WALL STATUS: Planned Using federal, state and city dollars, a 5.3-mile sea wall will be built on Staten Island from Fort Wadsworth to Oakwood Beach – an area hit hard by Superstorm Sandy. Like the Rockaway Boardwalk, the Staten Island sea wall will act as both a flood barrier and a public space that will include a boardwalk and bike paths.
BATTERY PARK CITY STATUS: In progress A $134 million project to develop coastal protections at Battery Park City is set to begin construction as soon as this year, with plans including a continuous flood barrier along South Battery Park City and the construction of garden and park walls along the western perimeter to act as flood protection.
THE BATTERY STATUS: In progress Moving south, the city plans to invest $165 million into fortifying the Battery
by elevating the waterfront esplanade and constructing a grassy berm at the back of the park that can protect against storm surges. Construction on the Battery project is set to begin in 2021.
EAST SIDE COASTAL RESILIENCY PROJECT STATUS: In progress The long-planned East Side Coastal Resiliency Project has settled on a new design that focuses mainly on raising East River Park to reduce the risk of flooding. After delays, the project is set to begin construction in 2020 and wrap up by the summer of 2023.
INTERIM FLOOD PROTECTION MEASURES STATUS: In progress New York City is planning interim protection measures in time for the upcoming hurricane season, starting in June. Among those planned for lower Manhattan include water-filled dams and sand-filled barriers that can be deployed on short notice in the event of a storm.

ORTIFYING NEW YORK CITY against storm surge and flooding is not just about preparing for the next Superstorm Sandy, but preparing for a storm that could cause even more damage. A study released in 2017 found that New York City could be at risk of major floods every five years after 2030. After Superstorm Sandy hit, a number of emergency and short-term measures were taken to strengthen vulnerable points in each of the city’s five boroughs, including tons of extra sand being packed along the shores of hard-hit areas, including the Rockaways and Staten Island. But a bevy of infrastructure projects are coming together now that could offer longer-term protection. City & State checked in on the progress of a few of those more sizeable undertakings.

LET’S MAKE A DEAL
Green New Deal champion Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez represents New York City. Her plan doesn’t emphasize urbanism – yet.
I
T ISN’T OFTEN THAT a freshman member of the House sets a major portion of the national political debate, but – by adding her star power to the movement for a “Green New Deal” – Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has done just that. Support for the Democrat’s Green New Deal resolution has become a litmus test issue for progressives, a favorite punching bag of conservatives and a likely component of the eventual Democratic presidential nominee’s platform in 2020. So why doesn’t the Green New Deal have a program for promoting energy-efficient urban living? Ocasio-Cortez represents one of the most diverse, densest – and, therefore, one could say most urban – districts in the country. And yet, as the pro-urbanism grassroots advocacy network Strong Towns wrote about the Green New Deal on its blog, “The proposal is sweeping. It’s idealistic. And, we can’t help but notice, it doesn’t really talk about one of the biggest factors in carbon emissions: urban land use.” But it still could adopt a robust platform to reverse 70 years of federal policy that has favored suburbs over cities and incentivized environment-destroying sprawl. By doing so, it would help Ocasio-Cortez’s district, the rest of New York City and other cities in New York state. Thus far, the Green New Deal is just broad outlines of a policy to mitigate cli-
mate change, laying out goals like the swift decarbonization of the energy sector. It was pushed onto the congressional radar by the youth-driven Sunrise Movement, which aims to stop climate change. Ocasio-Cortez, in drafting the resolution, largely followed the group’s framework, which talks a lot about switching to clean energy, creating “green jobs” like building windmills and solar panels and helping fossil fuel industry employees find a new line of work. The latter two points are as much about politics as policy. As Vox’s David Roberts wrote when the congressional resolution was introduced in February: “Proponents are spooked about being seen as anti-rural, which is why these kinds of plans from the left always include education, training, and transition assistance for rural communities hurt by decarbonization. And that’s great. But they should also remember that their core demographics live in cities and are engaged in urban issues. Cities are central to any vision of 21st-century sustainability.” This is because America’s development pattern since World War II has led to higher levels of energy consumption and higher greenhouse gas emissions than in most other developed countries. The United States has one of the highest rates of emissions per capita: more than twice as high as the United Kingdom’s and over three times the rate of France. This is, in part, because
COMMENTARY Americans have been pouring out of inner cities and into low-density suburbs, where they drive everywhere and live in larger, detached houses that consume more energy. Every new mile of road and every new subdivision or strip mall replaces natural carbon sinks like forests, fields and wetlands. While a few cities, including New York City, have recovered the population they lost, other older cities – even thriving ones such as Washington, D.C., and Boston – but especially post-industrial cities, including Buffalo, Syracuse and Rochester, remain far below their peak populations. In 2015, scientists at Boston University studied the relationship between urban density and the carbon emissions that cause global warming. They noted, “The United States, with 5% of the world’s population and 30% of the world’s automobiles, emits 45% of global transportation CO2 emissions.” They determined that this is largely the result of two phenomena: American communities are often too spread out to get around without driving, or they are designed in a way that forces driving in dense environments – for example, due to a lack of public transit, lack of sidewalks or because housing and shopping are far apart. New York City, as the country’s densest and most transit-rich city, is far more eco-friendly than its suburbs. A 2014 study from the University of California, Berkeley,

City & State New York
found the average Manhattan household’s carbon footprint was half of the average household’s footprint in Great Neck on Long Island. There were similar disparities in environmental impact between San Francisco or Chicago and their respective suburbs. While the Green New Deal talks about retrofitting buildings to make them more energy-efficient, which is certainly a worthy endeavor, a 2017 study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences found that densifying cities has even more of a climate-protection benefit. But, so far, the Green New Deal’s only mention of these issues is a call for “investment in zero-emission vehicle infrastructure and manufacturing, clean, affordable, and accessible public transit, and high-speed rail.” That has likely benefits for cities in New York, as they could get federal funding for expanding or upgrading their transit systems. High-speed trains connecting the cities of Central and Western New York to the coasts would also have economic benefits for those regions.
MARK CHAMBERS DIRECTOR, NEW YORK CITY MAYOR’S OFFICE OF SUSTAINABILITY
FLURRY OF NEW ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS DO YOU CONSIDER CONGESTION PRICING TO BE AN ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY OR JUST A TRANSPORTATION POLICY? SHOULD IT BE PRICED IN A WAY TO MAXIMIZE THE POSITIVE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS? We’re at a time when you can’t disaggregate the two. Ultimately, we want less cars on the road, and we want those cars, as much as possible, to be electrified and shared. Looking at it as simply an environmental policy that can ultimately move people away
But public transit is mostly used only when riders can get from their home to a transit stop and from there to their final destination without driving. Europeans, like New York City residents, don’t solely substitute mass transit for driving: They also walk or bike to shopping, dining and to visit friends. All of that requires dense, walkable communities. So, the Green New Deal could propose to reverse federal policies that have encouraged metro areas to sprawl outward instead of build upward. In 2013, the advocacy organization Smart Growth America released a report measuring subsidies for sprawl, mostly through the tax code, finding they reached a total of $450 billion per year. The largest, by far, was the mortgage interest deduction. By making what one pays for buying a home largely tax-deductible, this favors new construction in suburbia, since city dwellers are more likely to rent or to spend less on an older house but put the difference into renovating it. “Support for multifamily rental opportunities makes up only 15 percent of total housing support, despite the fact that 32 percent of U.S. households are renters,” Smart Growth America reported. This also amounts to a subsidy for the affluent at the expense of the urban poor. Given the crippling cost of housing and the lack of funding for the maintenance or construction of public housing, Ocasio-Cortez could advocate for fairness to her constituents in New York City by inserting a provision in the Green New Deal that phases out the mort-
gage interest deduction and other subsidies for buying houses and directs the savings toward building new affordable, dense public housing near mass transit and upgrading existing affordable developments, including NYCHA’s beleaguered housing stock. Relieving the pressure of housing costs in New York City and increasing density doesn’t only have to happen within the city itself. The Green New Deal could create incentives for suburbs to upzone around transit hubs, such as commuter rail train stations on the Metro-North Railroad and Long Island Rail Road, to allow the development of reasonably priced rental buildings. And then there’s the flip side of mass transit investment: Currently, the federal government heavily subsidizes highway construction by handing out money to state departments of transportation to spend in whatever inefficient way they choose. Changing federal transportation funding formulas to favor projects that spend money more efficiently – not just favoring transit over roads but favoring roads that serve dense population hubs and are built to accommodate bicyclists, pedestrians and bus or rail lines – would benefit older cities such as those in New York, reduce emissions and remove a perverse subsidy for sprawl. Ocasio-Cortez has become as much a tribune of the national progressive movement as her district or hometown. But if she adjusts her proposal, there shouldn’t be conflict between those two roles.

from vehicles into mass transit and less carbon-intensive transportation is true, and it’s great. But we want there to actually be better management of the existing streets and roadways that impact how we move around the city. ALBANY BANNED PLASTIC BAGS, THE CITY JUST OFFICIALLY IMPLEMENTED “MEATLESS MONDAYS” AT ALL SCHOOLS – IT’S A LOT OF CONSUMER-FOCUSED ENVIRONMENTAL POLICIES. IS THIS THE RIGHT WAY TO FOCUS ON GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS, OR SHOULD THE FOCUS BE ON MAJOR PRODUCERS, LIKE CORPORATIONS? Both and then some.

So yes, we have to focus

on the large-scale energy sourcing and transmission of that energy into the city, absolutely. But we also have to change the way we live. Fundamentally, we have to change the way we consume.

We are extremely focused on looking for and advocating for being able to use all the levers we have at our disposal for large-scale renewable power to be transmitted directly into the city.

ITH THE RISE of Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the “Green New Deal” has become part of nearly everyone’s vernacular. Although the Green Party first formulated a Green New Deal in 2006, the term did not go mainstream until Ocasio-Cortez championed climate change legislation and introduced her own legislative proposal. Capitalizing on the now ubiquitous name, Gov. Andrew Cuomo introduced his own Green New Deal as part of his executive budget. The governor had previously set ambitious energy and climate goals, but his new plan goes further. Here’s how the two plans compare.
Some version of Cuomo’s goals may become reality, as many Democrats in the state would readily support ambitious climate goals. The state Legislature is reviewing the Climate and Community Protection Act, which would, among other things, codify versions of Cuomo’s previously established climate goals. The state Legislature also has a bill to create a Green New Deal task force to develop a plan to address climate change and achieve carbon neutrality by 2030.

RENEWABLE ENERGY TRANSITION WIND AND SOLAR POWER CURRENTLY MEET JUST A FEW PERCENTAGE POINTS OF OUR ENERGY NEEDS. IS THERE ANY HOPE THEY CAN BE DEVELOPED FAST ENOUGH TO MEET THESE CLIMATE GOALS? Look at the track record of what’s happening in those markets now. They are small, but they are growing so fast. We have been able to award really cost-competitive contracts to 46 new renewable energy facilities across the state over just the last two years. Those 46 proj-

ects collectively represent 3,000 megawatts of new clean generation. That in and of itself could meet about 10% of the state’s electricity needs. We are also continuing to run solicitations and there’s just a really robust pipeline that is growing very fast, particularly if you look at our opportunity to bring offshore wind into the mix. We have under review right now an RFP for approximately 800 megawatts of offshore wind. So that would be on top of those 3,000 megawatts of new contracts that I mentioned. THERE HAS BEEN A LOT OF TALK ABOUT MAKING THE ELECTRICITY SECTOR CARBON-FREE. WHAT’S NYSERDA UP TO IN OTHER SECTORS?

New York State’s Department of Environmental Conservation (“NYSDEC”) and the Cuomo Administration are facing a crucial decision that will have an immense and lasting impact on the growth and prosperity of New York City and Long Island: the approval of the Northeast Supply Enhancement Project (“NESE”). As of March 15th, Con Edison has placed a moratorium on natural gas hook ups in Westchester County, spurring an outcry from residents, local leaders, businesses and developers. The moratorium was caused by a lack of supply and an increasing demand from residential and commercial customers. In recent weeks, National Grid has been sounding their own alarm - warning that as early as next month, a moratorium will be issued in Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island and Long Island. Now, Con Edison has said that in the absence of the NESE project, it will be forced to expand the Westchester moratorium across their New York City territory. Meaning there could soon be a natural gas shortage so significant the entire City of New York and all of Long Island will be under moratorium. This is a grave threat to the prosperity of downstate N and, the energy and economic future of Long Island and NYC, not to mention our air. There is only one solution to prevent this catastrophe: the Northeast Supply Enhancement Project. A natural gas moratorium would impact

ing sector, transportation and then there really is a fourth one that doesn’t get discussed as much: industrial. For the building sector, there is a long-standing effort by the state to focus on energy efficiency. On transportation, we have really been focused on trying to stimulate investment and adoption of electric vehicles, and we’re seeing some very good results. I think the fourth one, industrial processes, is going
hundreds of billions of dollars in planned growth across the impacted areas in New York City and Long Island, causing major planned development projects vital to our economic growth to be placed in jeopardy, along with the significant tax revenue and thousands of local construction jobs associated with those projects. In addition to big name projects, local businesses – mom and pop restaurants and other main street staples – will also be turned away. A moratorium would also halt the planned conversion of thousands of small businesses and residential customers hoping to switch to cheap natural gas from expensive, dirty heating oil. New York City is enjoying the cleanest air in decades thanks in part to these oil to gas conversions and this progress must be allowed to continue. Additionally, as we all know – New York is far too expensive already, and access to affordable natural gas for home heating is one way to bring costs down. The Partnership for NYC and the 1.5 million employees and hundreds of businesses that we represent understand the value of a renewable energy future, and we support the Governor’s commitment to a carbon free New York. However, like the Governor, we are also pragmatists. It is a fact that there is simply not enough renewable energy available right
WHAT HAS NYSERDA BEEN DOING TO PROMOTE ENTREPRENEURSHIP? We have the Ignition Grant program, which gives small grants to startups. If a startup has a prototype and they visit their potential customers and say: “This technology can save you money and it’s cleaner than what you’re using now. Would you like to be a customer of ours?” The customers often will say: “Well, the sounds great, but has it been validated?” Some of the grants help the startups – and they can be small grants of $20,000 to $30,000 – to go to a lab and get validation testing. Then, they can take those independent validation results to their customers and actually convert that into sales.
now to meet the growing energy demands of NYC and Long Island. In the interim, we need to ensure that the necessary natural gas infrastructure projects are approved, allowing for the critical natural gas capacity to continue the prosperity we’ve enjoyed in recent years while scaling renewables. The NESE project will also enable cleaner air for New York. It will allow New York to advance its aggressive emissions reduction goals by providing the needed supply to convert thousands of customers off of heating oil. NESE will displace the equivalent of 900,000 barrels of heating oil through planned oil to gas conversions. The project will significantly reduce our CO2 emissions by 200,000 tons in the first year alone - that’s equivalent to taking 500,000 vehicles off the road annually. It is clear that the NESE project is absolutely vital to the growth and prosperity of downstate New York. Denying this project will have significant long-term implications to our economy, future growth and, importantly, our air. For all the reasons outlined above, a natural gas moratorium simply cannot be allowed to go into effect; New York must approve the NESE project today. - Kathryn S.

BREATHE EASY It’s not just about fast cash and commutes. Congestion pricing should improve the air too. by R E B E C C A C . L E W I S
N
EW YORK CITY residents may soon be able to breathe a little bit easier thanks to the passage of congestion pricing as part of the state budget. Although most of the details will be determined by a commission, fewer cars in Manhattan and more efficient public transit would logically lead lower emissions and better air quality. But for the city, and the state, congestion pricing could be just one step toward a greener New York. While much of the discussion around congestion pricing in New York so far has been focused on the projected revenue and discontent among people who would potentially pay the fee, available data shows that the implementation of congestion pricing would have measurable positive impacts on the environment and public health. A form of the tolling scheme exists in three cities: London, Stockholm and Singapore. In each, air quality has improved considerably thanks to decreased traffic congestion. While climate change gets the most attention these days, cities still struggle with conventional pollution, and reducing the number of cars – or the amount of time they spend idling – will lessen that pollution and the carbon dioxide emissions that cause global warming. One year after congestion pricing was put in place in London, nitrogen oxide levels in the air decreased more than 13%, carbon dioxide by 15% and particulates by 7%, downward trends supported by more recent analyses. Stockholm also saw reductions in these pollutants after the start of congestion pricing, as well as reductions in asthma-related hospital visits. Those numbers spell good news for New York City, especially considering the high rates of asthma in both the Bronx and Manhattan. Transportation emissions are the

greatest contributor of carbon pollution in the state. According to the Environmental Defense Fund, stop-and-go traffic – which plagues New York City – contributes three times more pollution than when cars are steadily moving. One complicating factor could be that, unlike in other cities that instituted congestion pricing, New York state has a target revenue goal as opposed to a target traffic or emissions reduction goal. New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio even said at a recent press conference that the point of congestion pricing is to fix transit, not reduce congestion. While the panel that will determine toll prices and other aspects of the program was directed to consider the environmental impacts of congestion pricing, decisions must still optimize monetization in order to raise $1 billion a year. A toll optimized for the greatest reduction in congestion, unconcerned with how much money it would raise, would perhaps be higher and reduce driving so much that it would raise less revenue. However, environmental advocates are pleased with the plan that passed, believing the revenue goals and environmental goals go hand in hand. They argue any toll will lead to fewer cars on the road, meaning freer streets and less pollution. Since the congestion pricing commission has been instructed to consider environmental impact, environmentalists believe the commissioners will take that into account when

THE ENVIRONMENT AND ECONOMIC GROWTH WHAT ARE THE BIGGEST ENVIRONMENTAL THREATS IN NEW YORK? In terms of the biggest threat, I think many would agree on the issue of emerging contaminants. That would probably be one of the largest and most challenging issues we’re dealing with. Relatedly, we’re focused on safe drinking water. I think those are probably two of the largest threats that we’re seeing. The challenge is how do we reconcile and address knowledge of the contam-
deciding on the optimal structure. Perhaps more importantly, they say new investment in public transportation is inherently green. “A reliable transportation system, reliable subways, reliable buses that can actually move at a steady pace on the roads in the city would also serve that purpose of getting cars off the road,” said Conor Bambrick, air and energy program director at Environmental Advocates of New York. Redesigning the city’s bus system and electrifying the bus fleet is a key component of the MTA’s Fast Forward plan, which will be funded, in part, by congestion pricing. And the subways are already electric, so it already provides a fairly environmental travel option. “There’s no way we can achieve the climate targets that are aligned with the Paris Agreement if we don’t invest in transit,” said Andy Darrell, New York regional director at the Environmental Defense Fund. However, the MTA has a poor track record when it comes to efficient money and time management, so a steady influx of new cash from congestion pricing doesn’t constitute an automatic solution to the problems plaguing the system and its unhappy commuters. Darrell and Bambrick both said that they feel confident in the leadership of Andy Byford, the New York City Transit president who crafted the Fast Forward plan, but that the public must hold the agency accountable. Even without the details, New York City
has already become a national leader by passing congestion pricing, and the other cities around the country that may follow suit are closely watching. Congestion pricing is potentially just the first step toward lowering carbon emissions and getting polluting cars off the roads. In addition to a central business district congestion pricing fee, London has also implemented low-emission and ultra-low emission zones, which impose additional fees on the most polluting vehicles, providing a model that New York could follow. “We need a plan writ large on how the state, and preferably the region, addresses transportation emissions,” said Julie Tighe, president of the New York League of Conservation Voters. “Congestion pricing is, in fact, the cornerstone that leads us to those broader policy discussions.” Perhaps that starts in part with exemptions or discounts for drivers of electric cars during the early stages of congestion pricing, which Darrell said could serve as an incentive for people to make the switch while putting New York City on the path toward measures like those put in place by London. Or next steps might be the implementation of a low-carbon fuel standard, something Tighe expected to see discussions about soon. Either way, it would seem that the success of congestion pricing may have far-reaching environmental benefits to go beyond the immediate effects of fewer cars on the road.

inant – detecting it, for one – and then assessing what levels of contamination constitute a threat. Then, how do we clean up where we see issues of contamination, and how do we prevent it moving forward? THE CLIMATE CHANGE DISCUSSION IS EXTREMELY POLITICIZED. REGARDLESS OF POLITICS, COMMUNITIES HAVE TO BE PREPARED FOR FUTURE CLIMATE-RELATED EMERGENCIES. IS IT POSSIBLE TO DO THAT AT THE REGULATORY LEVEL WITHOUT ACCEPTING THE BASIC PREMISE THAT HUMANS HAVE A ROLE IN CLIMATE CHANGE? You lured me in! (Laughs.) I would tell you that from the standpoint of my agency, it’s my belief that the administrator has acknowledged that humans do have an impact on the environment. I think it’s safe to say that. If humans

are acknowledged as a cause of impact in the environment, that simply validates everything that we’re trying to do. The other piece of it, where I’m going to go off script a little bit, is that the U.S. is not alone and cannot stand alone in this engagement. When we look at climate change, it’s not a U.S. phenomenon, it’s not a New York phenomenon, it’s not a Region 2 phenomenon. It’s a global phenomenon. As we try to be good stewards – and this
HOW DO YOU RECONCILE ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION WITH ECONOMIC GROWTH? WHAT’S YOUR BROAD REGULATORY PHILOSOPHY? In my background and upbringing, I focus on our role as stewards – that’s an old phrase. And in this case I always refer back to more of a traditional phrase, where we have an obligation to care for our communities. We need to feed and clothe and maintain the health and well-being of our people. But we also have to make sure that the resources that we use are properly managed and are available to future generations.

CLIMACTIC ACTION
The Climate and Community Protection Act would set ambitious emissions goals.
A
NUN, A PROFESSOR and an aspiring politician walked into state Sen. Alessandra Biaggi’s Albany office, but it wasn’t the setup for a joke. The trio arrived on April 9, alongside a dozen other activists from Buffalo, Albany, the Bronx and elsewhere to deliver a message. The freshman lawmaker was not in the office, so the activists – Sister Honora Kinney, Barnard College adjunct professor Claire Ullman and Albany County Legislature candidate Steve Wickham and the rest – left her some parting words. “We’re here to protect the people and places we care about from climate change and environmental racism,” said Geovaira Hernández, an energy organizer with Push Buffalo, one of more than 170 groups in the New York Renews coalition promoting the Climate and Community Protection Act, often shortened to CCPA. On cue, the rest of the activists joined in: “It’s time to vote ‘yes’ on the CCPA.” Then they moved on to the next legislator’s office and the one after that – until they visited some 200 members of the state Senate and Assembly. While their focus was on state legislators that day, the federal government’s approach to climate change was very much on the activists’ minds. President Donald Trump has derided climate change as a “Chinese hoax” and reversed his predecessor’s efforts to mitigate its effects. “One of the best ways to work against the devastation in Washington, D.C., is to work to shore up the protections in New York state,” Ullman said. “Starting local is the way to have a national impact.” Activists have pledged to come back for more rallies until the state Legislature passes the bill, which would make New York the first state to write into law a plan to effectively eliminate greenhouse gas emissions. It aims to do this by 2050 while earmarking funds from a potential carbon tax for historically disadvantaged communities and those most threatened by climate change. It would also expand the prevailing wage to workers

The CCPA is not the only bill before the into taking the sense of urgency and dumbLegislature that aims to codify the state’s ing it down.” By this, he meant that business commitment to combating climate change, and industry lobbyists are looking to make but it appears to be the one with the best sure that any action on climate does not hurt chance of passing. But first, supporters of the their bottom line. By writing into New York state law even bill have to overcome concerns from business groups, manufacturing interests and – most more aggressive policies toward climate change, the thinking goes that other states importantly – Gov.

Heastie and state Senate Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins resisted the governor’s efforts to reach a broad deal on climate its greenhouse gas emissions despite hostilchange policy in the budget, according to ity from the Trump administration. “It will the bill’s sponsor Assemblyman Steve Eng- fall to the states to help define collectively lebright. “Both the Senate and the Assem- the direction that our nation will take on the bly leadership were strongly of the opinion issue,” Englebright said. “What New York that … it was so important to get it right that does will be noticed.” As things currently stand, New York it should not be shoehorned into the complexities of trying to sort out everything has climate goals that are hardly set in else,” he said. “(Now that the budget is done) stone.

80% from 1990 levels by 2050 in order to avoid the most catastrophic effects of climate change. One of the biggest innovations of the CCPA is that the state would not only set its goal as a total elimination of net greenhouse emissions but it would be written into state law. Other states like California have made similar goals though executive action, as Cuomo did last year in pushing the state toward a 40% reduction in greenhouse gases by 2030. “New York state is behind when it comes to setting its climate and clean energy goals into law,” said Peter Iwanowicz, executive director of Environmental Advocates of New York. “It has been behind for more than 10 years.” A 2018 report by the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change recommended that worldwide emissions reach “net zero” by mid-century in order to prevent the most catastrophic effects of global warming. The CCPA lays out state climate goals in five-year increments, mandating net greenhouse emissions be equal to 85% of 1990 levels by 2020 and be eliminated by 2050, with some exceptions. According to the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority, reducing emissions from four sources is key to meeting those benchmarks: transportation (44% of current emissions), buildings (31%), electricity generation (19%) and industry (6%).
April 22, 2019
With more than half of the state’s electricity coming from nuclear and hydropower, state efforts have focused on replacing natural gas largely through wind and solar. While the state generates just a tiny sliver of its electricity from wind and solar, the rates of technological advances are accelerating, according to NYSERDA President and CEO Alicia Barton. “The rates of growth can be really high once you get the ball rolling,” she said. In the past two years, 46 projects across the state are aiming to bring 3,000 megawatts of renewable power online, enough to meet 10% of the state’s energy needs. Eliminating emissions in industry is trickier, especially in chemical processes like those used to make cement, which create greenhouse gases without using fossil fuels at all. “That is going to be the hardest nut to crack,” Barton said. Under the CCPA, two advisory committees and the state Department of Environmental Conservation would be key to figuring out the state’s climate strategy. The heads of more than two dozen state agencies would serve on a “climate action council” that would issue recommendations to the department on how to implement the law, which would take full effect within three years. While the department, and by extension the governor, would ultimately have
authority over the climate plan, many of its details would be based in statute. Just how much influence it would have on exempting small businesses from some emission limits – a topic the legislation states it should consider – remains to be seen. A “climate justice working group” made up of agency heads, local officials, activists and residents meanwhile would focus on advising the department on what areas and groups qualify as historically disadvantaged or most affected by climate change. Potential metrics could include race, income, education level, elevation and proximity to areas damaged by fossil fuels. The stakes are high because communities that ultimately receive recognition would receive at least 40% of the eventual proceeds from the sale of future carbon credits from the state. “We know that climate change has a disproportionate impact on low-income communities, on communities of color,” state Sen. Julia Salazar said at an April rally in the state Capitol in support of the CCPA. “It’s beyond time to finally implement a just transition.” The focus on social justice does not end with the working group. Another provision in the bill would expand the use of the prevailing wage in any project receiving more than $100,000 in state financial assistance, or with a total value of more than
Climate Smart on the State Agenda The New York State Legislature has an historic opportunity before it to pass bold climate legislation. The Climate and Community Protection Act (CCPA, A.3876/S.2992), passed in two previous years by the Assembly, is one possible vehicle for accomplishing this goal. The CCPA would create a 50% renewable electricity mandate by 2030, and very aggressive economy-wide greenhouse gas emission reduction targets that reach zero emissions by 2050. The Governor’s Climate Leadership Act (CLA), included in this year’s Executive Budget proposal, is another possible vehicle. The CLA has a 70% renewable electricity reduction mandate by 2030 and requires that a Roadmap be developed to achieve a 40% reduction economy-wide by 2030 as well as economy-wide carbon neutrality (without a date).
definition of renewables as New York is currently using; requiring utilities to sign long-term contracts for renewable power; including aggressive goals for energy efficiency and distributed solar; and including annual milestones toward achieving the 70% by 2030 mandate. Establishing renewable electricity mandates in law – as many other states already do – would be a very important achievement.
Yes, there are differences in the proposals. But with the state budget passed and about eight weeks to go in this legislative session, there is plenty of time for both houses and the Governor to come to agreement before state lawmakers leave Albany for the summer.
Modern and clean renewable electricity technologies – like wind and solar power – are the foundation of comprehensive and effective climate change policy. They reduce air pollution, create jobs, keep energy dollars in-state, and modernize the grid. Here’s to a new climate law in New York State this year!
There are some changes that could make the electricity portions of this bill stronger, such as using the same

“Both the Senate and the Assembly leadership (thought) it was so important to get it right that it should not be shoehorned into the complexities of trying to sort out everything else.” – A SSEM BLY M A N ST EV E E NGL EBR IGH T, ON T H E BI L L NO T BEI NG I N T H E BU D GET $10 million – a key provision aiming to win union support for the bill. The GOP can do little to stop Democrats from passing the bill, but representatives from the business and manufacturing sectors are pushing lawmakers to limit how the legislation would affect them – if they cannot block it altogether. It is “simply not practical” to eliminate industrial emissions by 2050, Darren Suarez, senior director of government affairs at the Business Council of New York State, said during a February hearing on the CCPA. If rising costs or “uncertainty” drive up the costs of manu-
facturing to places with weaker standards, “it will serve to increase global greenhouse gas emissions in the long term.” Opponents of the legislation also said at the hearing that the CCPA would hurt the upstate economy and lead to hundreds of dollars per year in increased energy costs for households. Yet, when asked by state Sen. Pete Harckham at the hearing to substantiate that claim, Michael Kracker, executive director of Unshackle Upstate, a pro-business advocacy group, demurred from specific examples. “I don’t mean to sound glib,” Harckham said. “But when-

ever an environmental law is proposed, certain business groups push back.” With strong support from the state Senate and Assembly, it appears that the CCPA could very likely pass the state Legislature before it adjourns in June. However, many of its provisions mirror the “Green New Deal” that Cuomo proposed at the beginning of the year. Upcoming negotiations among Cuomo, Heastie and Stewart-Cousins will ultimately determine to what extent the CCPA will have to evolve in order for it to gain Cuomo’s signature. But activists say they want action this year – and lawmakers including Englebright and state Sen. Todd Kaminsky, who is sponsoring the CCPA in the Senate – said they are aiming to get something done in the upcoming weeks given the stakes. “This is arguably the most important issue on Earth,” Englebright said. “Literally.” After a day of rallying outside the legislative chambers and knocking on doors in the Legislative Office Building in April, dozens of activists from the New York Renews coalition went to the second floor of the state Capitol. As they marched in circles outside Cuomo’s office, they repeated a surprisingly optimistic chant for a movement facing a steadily worsening ecological catastrophe: “We believe that we will win.”

DIGITAL Digital Director Derek Evers devers@cityandstateny.com, Digital Content Coordinator Michael Filippi, Social Media Editor/Content Producer Amanda Luz Henning Santiago
BILL DE BLASIO Hizzoner may not be on every Winners & Losers list, but he was back with a vengeance last week, thanks to a probe by the Department of Investigation that exposed his solicitation of donations from people with business before the city, despite warnings not to do so. He also took heat for his atypical response to President Donald Trump’s plan to send immigrants to sanctuary cities and for the city’s heavily subsidized and increasingly scrutinized ferry system.

NEW YORK CITY COUNCIL; A KATZ/SHUTTERSTOCK
COSTA CONSTANTINIDES It’s a good time to be in the HVAC business, thanks to the Queens city councilman’s ambitious bill forcing big buildings across the city to cut greenhouse gas emissions – part of a “NYC Green New Deal” that passed the New York City Council ahead of Earth Day. Also in the package: Constantinides’ bill to study whether the city can close the power plants that ring Astoria and – on occasion – make New Yorkers fear alien attacks.

WINNERS
A win for McDonald’s and a strike against Dunkin’ last week, after the state agreed to streamline security getting into the state Capitol. Long waits used to deter visitors from eating at the Golden Arches outside the cordon, leaving them no choice but the Capitol Dunkin’. But Politico’s squeaky wheel reporting got results – and more lunch options – for civically engaged New Yorkers. Read on for more, less gastronomical news.
