Tight shoe pinches Mirant

The folks at Mirant, the energy company that has bedeviled north Rockland taxpayers with their tax challenges, is upset that Stony Point isn’t content to depend on New York State to set the standards for an environmental cleanup at the company’s Lovett generating station.
Tisk, Tisk.
Seems like the tight shoe taxpayers have been forced to wear isn’t feeling comfortable to Mirant. They think it’s inconvenient and illegal for Stony Point to add another level of scrutiny.
Considering that the company has forgotten at times to track its emissions, why should anyone believe they’ll have more concern for the environment than they’ve had for local homeowners, some of whom have been pushed to the brink of financial ruin by the fallout from Mirant’s property tax challenges.
The towns of Haverstraw and Stony Point, the villages of Haverstraw and West Haverstraw, the North Rockland School District and Rockland County have paid plenty having to fight Mirant’s greed. Let Mirant spend some time and money fighting what they see as another level of interference in the way they do business.
