WATER..WE NEED AS MUCH AS WE CAN GET!!
United Water was ordered by the PSC to find new sources for water and built the desal test plant and very successfully accessed water from the Hudson River, filtered it by reverse osmosis. The plant works. Now comes along this SIERRA Club and other enviro Marxist like groups who want to stop the building of the plant, our only source of additional water. The cost has escalated every day since this group started their nonsense and now we will get a rate increase without the benefit of any income to cover the cost. This has cost us about $10 -15 Million so far because of their antics and we still do not have the water MANDATED by the PSC. They think we should all get rain barrels and plant wildflowers on our lawns instead. They are against a private company making a "profit" even though United Water provides thousands of good paying jobs, pays a lit of taxes and does great charitable work. UW is by far the cheapest utility we have delivering clean water to my family for over 35 years. I can live without cable which costs $160 a month but not without water at about $50 a month. Why would anyone want to limit your water supply?
