|
We may finally be seeing some movement towards reforming business practices at the New York Power Authority. Paul Dyster has been championing the efforts since the start of his term as Mayor. You can see a June 2008 interview by the Buffalo New's Jim Heaney where Paul discusses the importance of reform in the allocation of power and how Niagara Falls would benefit by the reform. Then check out the latest "Progress on the Power Front" that was discussed at a press conference that Paul attended. |

Designation legislation jointly sponsored by Senator Charles Schumer and Congresswoman Louise Slaughter is currently before both houses of Congress.
