The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) amends existing regulations to reflect a new statutory authority to extend eligibility for burial in a national cemetery to include parents of certain veterans, as authorized by the Veterans' Benefits Act of 2010 (the Act), enacted on October 13, 2010. The Act authorizes the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to inter the biological or legally adoptive parents of a deceased veteran if the deceased veteran is a hostile casualty or dies from a training-related injury, is interred in a VA national cemetery in a gravesite with available space, and has no spouse or child who is buried, or surviving spouse or child who, upon death, may be eligible for burial, in a national cemetery.

Mangano said he submitted the five-year contract with a five- year extension for Veolia earlier in the day to the county Legislature, which must still approve it. The Nassau Interim Finance Authority also must sign off on the deal.

Earlier this year, the Buffalo Common Council adopted a resolution calling on federal, state and Canadian officials to review operations of the Niagara Falls Bridge Commission and the Buffalo and Fort Erie Public Bridge Authority and to identify the process to merge these entities so that our border crossings can be managed more efficiently and cost-effectively.
