New York State Energy Plan and Final Environmental Impact Statement

The New York State Energy Planning Board released the State Energy Plan (SEP) recognizing the effect energy use has on the State's economy and environment, and that energy markets in New York and throughout the nation are changing dramatically. The SEP is intended to provide strategic direction and policy guidance, and to coordinate State governments activities and responses to the fundamental changes that will occur over the next several years. The SEP is organized into four sections. Section 1.0 presents the Board's policies and long-range planning objectives and strategies. Section 2.0 presents the six issues the Board identified in 1997, after public notice and comment, for the draft SEP to address. Section 3.0 provides energy supply assessments required by statute for electricity, natural gas, petroleum, and coal, and assessments of the potential for energy efficiency and renewable energy resources to meet a portion of New York's future energy requirements. Section 4.0 identifies the parts of this plan that comprise the final generic environmental impact statement under the State Environmental Quality Review Act (SEQRA). Section 5 summarizes the comments received regarding policies, strategies, recommendations, and analyses contained in the draft SEP and lists the individuals or organizations which provided comments.
