Assemblyman Dan Stec, questions DEC Commissioner, Joseph Martens, at Monday’s budget hearing in Albany.
Assemblyman Dan Stec, the Ranking Member of the Assembly Environmental Conservation Committee took part in a hearing on Monday with Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) Commissioner Joseph Martens. Stec, a strong supporter of promoting and protecting our lakes, relished the opportunity to discuss the issues affecting vital resources such as Lake George.
“Lake George is crucial to my district, not only as a tourist attraction and source of revenue, but as a treasured part of our community’s history,” said Stec. “Ensuring that we protect this body of water and others like it is essential to the continued promotion of outdoor recreation and economic development in our region.
“I would like to thank Commissioner Martens for taking the time to discuss topics like invasive species and waterway protection. With his input, we can better figure out strategies to ensure our lakes and bodies of water remain the jewels of our community they are today.”
