The results of the environmental study of the Islanders’ Belmont arena project will be released Thursday, according to a notice on Empire State Development’s website.
ESD, the state’s primary business aid agency, has scheduled a special meeting for its board of directors in Manhattan Thursday to authorize the release of the draft environmental impact statement and schedule a public hearing to discuss its findings.
ESD has said the environmental study will address the project’s impact on traffic and detail plans for Belmont’s LIRR station, which currently only operates part-time on race days.
An ESD spokesman did not immediately return a message seeking comment.
