Establishes an indirect source review for certain warehouse operations

Summary

The bill adds a new section to the Environmental Conservation Law that creates an indirect‑source review for heavy distribution warehouses of 50,000 square feet or more. It obliges the Department of Environmental Conservation to develop a program within 18 months that sets pollution‑reduction plans, a points‑based incentive system, and permitting rules for new or modified facilities. The aim is to limit traffic‑related emissions, especially near schools, hospitals and disadvantaged neighborhoods.
