WHAT
Scoping Comments on the proposed Alcazar (Terra-Gen) Battery Storage project proposal in
Town of Ulster
WHEN
Due March 10, 2026 by 5:00pm.
The Town of Ulster Town Board, acting as lead agency, has requested an additional 30-day extension. We are currently waiting to learn the outcome of that request. Until then, please plan to submit comments by the March 10 deadline.
HOW
Submit your comments on the draft scoping document in writing via e-mail to ul**************@*************ny.go or delivered to the Supervisor’s Office at Town Hall, 1 Town Hall Drive, Lake Katrine, N.Y.
WHY
This would be one of the largest battery storage facilities in Ulster County and could set a precedent for future projects. Your comments matter.
###
Tomorrow marks the deadline for comments on the Alcazar (Terra-Gen) Battery Storage Project proposal in the Town of Ulster with potential impacts to the Town of Hurley and City of Kingston. Although a request has been submitted to the developer to extend the scoping process by an additional 30 days, we do not yet know the outcome. Therefore, for now, the scoping process deadline should be treated as tomorrow, March 10 by 5:00pm.
A big thank you to the Town of Ulster Town Board, which holds the critical role of lead agency, guiding the environmental review and requesting more time for the public to carefully review these dense materials. Thanks as well to Regis Obijiski at TownofUlsterCitizens.org for his leadership and commitment to keeping the community informed and engaged.
We also extend our appreciation to Jillian Fried in the Town of Hurley, who has courageously led the town—and regional partners—to respond to the scoping process with both grace and intelligence.
This is what community-driven effort looks like. You’ve all done a great job in your advocacy. It’s a proud moment for all of us.
If you have any questions, please reach out to us at re*****@**************ns.org , where we’ll do our best to put you in touch with those who are organizing.
