Chambers of Commerce

LIPA is an active partner in the effort to keep our communities safe. As an owner and operator of critical energy infrastructure in New York, we work closely with local, state and federal authorities to protect our facilities.  However, the entire community can be partners in this effort to keep us safe. You can provide another set of eyes and ears to assist the New York State Office of Homeland Security and Law Enforcement across the State.
