S 7410 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Directs the department of environmental conservation to conduct a study on retrofitting certain schools

This bill directs New York's Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) to study retrofitting air filtration, ventilation, and building sealing in public and charter schools located within 500 feet of major highways. The study will assess existing systems, identify gaps, evaluate feasibility, and estimate costs for improving indoor air quality near traffic pollution. It specifically requires the DEC and Education Department to examine building envelopes (like windows and walls), air systems, and prioritize schools based on pollution exposure and student vulnerability. The study is a preliminary step - no funding or immediate action is provided - and must be completed within one year for review by state leaders.
