“Reliable electric service is essential to the safety, economy, and quality of life of the Town of Boston,”
said Jason Keding, Town of Boston supervisor. “NYSEG’s investment in the Cobble Hill Substation
represents a significant upgrade to critical infrastructure that serves many residents and businesses in
our community and neighboring towns.”

“This is fantastic for our residents in this part of the Town of Concord,” said Phil Drozd, Town of
Concord town supervisor. “Knowing that NYSEG recognized a problem area and invested dollars to
remedy shows me they care about their customers. Myself and the other Supervisors from the towns
this substation services were treated to a tour of the facility and had the upgrades explained to us. The
NYSEG staff was very professional and answered all of our questions.”

With growing demand, more extreme weather, and increased electrification, the Companies are
focused on making smart investments in the energy system. These upgrades replace older equipment
with newer, more reliable technology to improve service, reduce outages, and keep communities
better prepared for severe weather.
