Tolub, J.), entered September 24, 2008, annulling respondent agency’s denial of petitioners’ application for admission into the Brownfield Cleanup Program, and directing acceptance of petitioners’ property into the program, unanimously affirmed, without costs.

Recent precedent of this Court compels the conclusion that respondent improperly departed from statutory criteria in finding that the subject property is not a brownfield site (Matter of East Riv.
