Hi, I just called the number for PA Media Relations Office. The woman who answered asked me if I was a member of the media. When I said no, she gave me the info # for the PA, (212-435-7000), but none of the options seem to pertain to our kind of concern. The rep I spoke to at Gov. Cuomo's office told me she has been getting lots of calls and took my zip code along with my complaint.

I think it is horrendous that such a time sensitive and destructive issue can only be addressed by snail mail in this day and age. I am doing as you suggest, but still urge all to flood Cuomo's office with phone calls.

The call was routed to Albany where is was kindly and carefully explained to me that this issue needs to be addressed by the public in writing, hard copy, snail mail if it is ever going to reach the agency (DEC) that will most likely address it. The woman said that one should also request a reply with contact info. so that you can follow up if you want to. > >I asked about e-mailing and the woman said the way the system worked in Albany it should only be hard copy. They scan them into their system and then send all letters regarding a particular issue on the the agency that will most likely address it. She explained if it is not done by hard copy your complaints will enter a big black hole.
