Dolgeville, N.Y. -

The state Department of Environmental Conservation, working 
cooperatively with the state Department of Health, has determined that 
the former CITGO gas station site at 99 N. Main St., Dolgeville, is free 
from contaminants and is acceptable for residential and commercial use.
As part of the process of returning the former brownfield site to the 
tax rolls, the state department is accepting public comment on its

of the Region 6 Division of Environmental Remediation Office.
