New York seeks 1.6 million from Con Ed over fish kill
State Attorney General Lefkowitz moved in state Supreme Court to collect more than 1.6 million in a penalty suit against Consolidated Edison for a fish kill at the No 2 Hudson River Indian Point plant. About 163000 tiny fish were killed between January 11 and February 26 on the plant water intake screens during testing, violating conservation law, the state says, with a $10 fine per fish. Con Edison denies violation, noting the incident occurred during testing.
