Morningside Heights Housing Corp. v. New York City Transit Authority

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Jun 17, 1991
174 A.D.2d 673 (N.Y. App. Div. 1991)

Opinion

June 17, 1991

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Kings County (Bernstein, J.).


Ordered that the order and judgment is affirmed, with costs.

The Supreme Court correctly held that the action of the New York City Transit Authority in eliminating certain speed restrictions, which had been applicable to IRT "Number 1" trains operating between 122nd Street and 135th Street, was not one which required the preparation of an environmental impact statement (see, 6 NYCRR 617.13 [d] [15]; Presidents' Council of Trade Waste Assns. v City of New York, 142 Misc.2d 135, affd 159 A.D.2d 428; Matter of McNerney v Bainbridge-Guilford Cent. School Bd. of Educ., 155 A.D.2d 842, 843).

We have examined the petitioner's remaining contentions and find them to be without merit. Mangano, P.J., Bracken, Kunzeman and Miller, JJ., concur.
