On June 30, 2015, Senator Schumer visited Mine Dock Park in Fort Montgomery to voice his support for increased, expanded, and improved pedestrian, fishing and boater access to the waterfront communities of the Hudson Valley. The federal government has historically partnered with local stakeholders to increase water and recreational opportunities, and Schumer said the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) should put their full weight and resources behind new water access improvement projects in Orange County. Schumer was joined by Andy Bicking of Scenic Hudson, Andy Peck of the Nature Conservancy, and area residents.
