REC is supported by donations and small grants
We use our money to help protect the environmental rights of those in Rensselaer and nearby communities by encouraging public involvement.
We helped stop BioHiTech’s solid waste facility and Harbor Rock’s river sludge incinerator from contaminating our soil and air.
In our fight to stop the Dunn Landfill, we helped to reduce permits from a 10-year renewal to 3 years with modifications.
With our pro bono lawyers, we are currently challenging the DEC in court over their mistakes and omissions in their permit decision, but we must pay for all supporting documents and filing fees.
We continue our efforts in the court of public opinion and your donation will be used to help support and continue our fight to close Waste Connections’ Dunn Dump.
Thank you.
