Gov. Andrew Cuomo and Attorney General Eric Schneiderman filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Thursday challenging its decision to allow dredging sediments to be dumped into the Long Island Sound.
In the lawsuit filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York in Brooklyn, Schneiderman asked the court to block the newly designated dumping site because the EPA’s actions were “arbitrary, capricious, an abuse of discretion or otherwise not in accordance with law.”
