The Millennium Pipeline Project raises significant environmental concerns, including turbidity, contaminant risks, and potential damage to bluffs in Ripley, along with impacts on vineyards and agriculture in Cattaraugus County. Alternative routing options for the Hudson River crossing and land use considerations in Broome and Orange Counties are discussed, focusing on community safety, traffic impacts, and the preservation of natural areas. The proposal also addresses issues related to endangered species, such as the shortnose sturgeon, and explores the implications of blasting and possible community disruptions.
