Ecology clash over MTA Stewart Airport expansion
A coalition of environmental groups and national lawyers may seek an injunction against the MTA and FAA to stop land acquisition and a master plan for Stewart Airport. They oppose expansion of the former Air Force Base, citing air and water pollution concerns and home rule issues. The MTA plans to acquire 11,000 acres near the airport while a master plan study is funded with federal and state money.

Her decision follows a long streak of nonconformity from schooldays in England to Mohonk Mountain House employment.
