The Sierra Club’s Atlantic Chapter joined the Staten Island Coalition for Wetlands and Forests, in appealing to the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation and the New York City government to reverse their decisions to permit the project to develop the Graniteville Wetlands. and to save this species-rich wetland until it can be protected as a New York City park.

It is dangerously naïve to think New York will not have more destructive storms. New York City needs to preserve and enhance all its wetlands areas.
