New York Regional Interconnect (NYRI) is a privately held company with an office in Albany, NY. They are a division of American Consumer Industries (Wilmington, DE), founded in 1984. Their parent company is in Canada.

NYRI plans to run 190 miles of high-voltage power lines from Marcy, NY to New Windsor, NY. These towers will stand 130 feet tall (13 stories) and carry 1,200-megawatt lines. The estimated cost of the project is $1.6 billion. The lines will deliver power to New York City and counties south of Orange. There will be no savings for the towns and counties that these lines cross. In fact, these areas should see a 5% increase in utility costs.

These lines are unnecessary and we don't want them, so we urge you to Say No 2 NYRI.
