 PEER REVIEW: 
1. Is everything in the article relevant to the article topic? Is there anything that distracted you?

Everything in the article is relevant. There is a simple format that is clear to follow. TypiclTori (talk) 03:36, 5 May 2017 (UTC)Typicltori[reply]

2.  Is the article neutral? Are there any claims, or frames, that appear heavily biased toward a particular position?

Yes, the article is all facts. TypiclTori (talk) 03:36, 5 May 2017 (UTC)Typicltori[reply]

3. Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented?

Answer: WHO, WHAT, WHERE, WHEN, WHY, HOW. I think you cover the who- and what- well. but why did it start? What was the problem that caused the need for the act? Why is there no agency? TypiclTori (talk) 03:36, 5 May 2017 (UTC)Typicltori[reply]

4.  Check the citations. Do the links work? Does the source support the claims in the article?

There are no links in the article yet. TypiclTori (talk) 03:36, 5 May 2017 (UTC)Typicltori[reply]

There are links now Aasmusko (talk) 09:49, 30 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

5. Is each fact supported by an appropriate, reliable reference? Where does the information come from? Are these neutral sources? If biased, is that bias noted?

There are no references listed to it. TypiclTori (talk) 03:36, 5 May 2017 (UTC)Typicltori[reply]

There are references now, but all citations except one refer to www.dec.ny.gov, which is a primary source. This is appropriate in this case, because the article is about legislation, and no secondary source will have adequate information. However, citation 3 and 4 refer to missing pages. Aasmusko (talk) 09:49, 30 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

6. Is any information out of date? Is anything missing that should be added?

Who approved it? Why was it needed? Why is there no one agency that has power? list the other agencies, why isnt it just one? Who did this effect? Is the act still an act? -if not why is it no longer an act? Why was there alterations? steps to approve an act? (keep it super simple EX: It had to be passed by a review board.) Add references and links to other topics and you should be solid! TypiclTori (talk) 03:36, 5 May 2017 (UTC)Typicltori[reply]

EIS is never defined. Aasmusko (talk) 09:49, 30 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
