Bill > S06018

This bill authorizes and directs the New York State Power Authority (NYSPA) to rename the Robert Moses Niagara Power Plant, which is located in the town of Lewiston in Niagara County, to the Shirley J. Hamilton Niagara Power Plant. The legislation specifically overrides any existing laws, rules, or regulations that might otherwise prevent such a renaming. By mandating this change, the bill appears to be honoring Shirley J. Hamilton, though the specific reasons for the namesake change are not detailed in the text. The bill includes a standard provision stating that it will take effect immediately upon enactment, which means the power plant could be renamed as soon as the bill becomes law.
