The New York Supreme Court allows Greenidge to continue operating its mining business

according to Cointelegraph, a ruling by the New York State Supreme Court allows Greenidge Generation to continue generating power and conducting Bitcoin mining at its facility in Dresden, New York, and to reapply for the Chapter V air permit under the Clean Air Act that was denied by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) in June 2022.

Nevertheless, the court also affirmed DEC's authority to deny permits under the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act (CLCPA). The court found that DEC's decision was arbitrary and capricious, but there was no evidence of improper policymaking by DEC, which means that Greenidge's permit will be reconsidered.
