Like Water Off A DUCK’S Back
Group Trying to Stop Duck Boats in NYC
Will these tree hugging morons ban rain next? It washes all of the "dirt, oil and other contaminants," into the river too, or at least the part that the wind and these proposed DUKS doesn't. The rain does a much better job of it too.
Ducks travel streets like buses, then descend by ramp into water and travel like boats. Some were initially built as military troop carriers known as DUKWs and have been retrofitted for tourism, while others were built new. They each carry about 50 passengers.
The Port Imperial company has received the needed permits from the state Department of Environmental Conservation and is awaiting a final one from the Army Corps of Engineers, court papers say.
But Transportation Alternatives, which promotes bicycling, skating and walking instead of using cars, says the ducks will pick up "dirt, oil and other contaminants," and then deposit them in the river when the ducks enter the water. The group also points out that the ducks will cross the Greenway, a path used by 10,000 people a day along the Hudson River, every 4.5 to 6 minutes (10 to 14 crossings an hour).
