Victims and first responders of the 9-11 terror attacks will be honored at 30 locations around the state, including SUNY Potsdam and the Dulles State Office Building on Washington Street in Watertown.

“Every community across New York felt the impact of the senseless acts of terrorism that claimed thousands of lives just one decade ago,” Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo said in a news release.

The state is partnering with the National September 11 Memorial and Museum to put on the exhibits, which will be on display beginning the week of Aug. 29 through September.

This year marks the 10th anniversary of the terrorist attacks.

Artifacts at the exhibits will include debris from the scene, including damaged emergency personnel vehicles.

Several Northern New Yorkers were involved in the emergency efforts after the 9-11 attacks.

At least 14 people with connections to the north country were among the nearly 3,000 who were killed in the attacks.
