Governor Hochul Wants a New Power Plant
Sources say that Governor Kathy Hochul is spearheading a mission to build the first primary new US power plant in New York for the first time in many years.
If the state builds a nuclear plant in Upstate New York, which is expected, sources say it would be the first in New York since 1975 construction started on Nine Mile Point Unit 2 in Oswego County.

A tragic tornado struck Clark Mills on Sunday, resulting in the deaths of three individuals, which has left two families in mourning. Shelly Johnson, a 50-year-old resident of Millstream Court, died when a tree fell on her home; her partner was prevented from reaching her due to the tree's size. The tornado also claimed the lives of six-year-old twins, Emily and Kenni Bisson, who were killed when a large tree crashed through their house on Hoyland Avenue, separating them from their mother at the time of the disaster. Both girls were pronounced dead at the scene, and in response to the tragedy, Clinton Central School will offer counseling services to students and staff following the school’s closure on Monday. In an effort to support the bereaved families, a Go Fund Me account has been established, with a fundraising goal of $9,000 for Johnson’s funeral costs, and another campaign aimed at raising $380,000 for the Bisson family, which has already garnered over $216,000 from more than 3,500 donors. As recovery efforts begin, community members are coming together to help those affected by this devastating incident.
