  • Darien, Connecticut 2006 Town Plan of Conservation & Development
    DARIEN, CONNECTICUT 2006 TOWN PLAN OF CONSERVATION & DEVELOPMENT Effective June 25, 2006 Darien Town Plan of Conservation & Development Adopted: May 23, 2006 Effective: June 25, 2006 Planning & Zoning Commission Members: Patrick J. Damanti, Chairman Frederick B. Conze, Vice-Chairman Joseph H. Spain, Secretary Peter Bigelow Ursula W. Forman David J. Kenny Traffic and Transportation Consultant: URS Corporation Environmental Resources Consultant: Fitzgerald & Halliday, Inc. Graphics work in Chapter 9: Wesley Stout Associates PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION’S STATEMENT OF PURPOSE Section 8-23 of the Connecticut General Statutes requires that local planning commissions prepare a Plan of Conservation and Development (“Plan” or “Town Plan”) at least once every ten years. The Town of Darien has been creating and implementing such plans for over 40 years. The Town Plan is just that - a plan/a vision/a roadmap. The Town Plan offers various projects and directions, many of which can be implemented on a variety of levels and scopes. The Plan has specifically been developed without a cost/benefit analysis and without a priority list of projects. The development of the costs, affordability, priorities, and other issues are left to the involved private sector parties and the appropriate town boards at the time that the projects are recommended for implementation. The fundamental goal has been, and continues to be, the preservation and enhancement of an attractive suburban living environment, but within those broad parameters are numerous factors which must be addressed to best assure achieving that goal. This Plan is the Town's most recent attempt to guide private and public participants toward this goal.

Regulated Point Source Discharges This Tetra Tech technical study was commissioned by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to synthesize and analyze water quality data to assess nitrogen-related water quality conditions in Long Island Sound and its embayments, based on the best scientific information reasonably available. This study is neither a proposed TMDL, nor proposed water quality criteria, nor recommended criteria. The study is not a regulation, and is not guidance, and cannot impose legally binding requirements on EPA, States, Tribes, or the regulated community, and might not apply to a particular situation or circumstance. Rather, it is intended as a source of relevant information to be used by water quality managers, at their discretion, in developing nitrogen reduction strategies.

    Thames River Basin Partnership Partners in Action Quarterly Report Spring 2017 Volume 42 The Thames River watershed includes the Five Mile, French, Moosup, Natchaug, Pachaug, Quinebaug, Shetucket, Willimantic, and Yantic Rivers and all their tributaries. We’re not just the "Thames main stem." Greetings from the Thames River Basin Partnership. Once again this quarter our partners have proven their ability to work cooperatively on projects compatible with the TRBP Workplan and in support of our common mission statement to share organizational resources and to develop a regional approach to natural resource protection. I hope you enjoy reading about these activities as much as I enjoy sharing information about them with you. For more information on any of these updates, just click on the blue website hyperlinks in this e-publication, but be sure to come back to finish reading the rest of the report. Jean Pillo, Watershed Conservation Project Manager Eastern Connecticut Conservation District And TRBP Coordinator Special Presentation If you missed the April 18, 2017 Thames River Basin Partnership meeting, then you missed a presentation by Adam Whelchel, Science Director for The Nature Conservancy. TNC recently completed a project with 10 southeastern Connecticut municipalities focused on regional community resilience. Southeastern Connecticut is a collection of communities each with its own individual identity and history. However, everyone involved with the project was reminded during this project that the fate of each community is closely tied to the social, environmental, and economic health of the whole region. Therefore, it is quite clear that the challenges facing this region are best tackled collectively with multiple towns, organizations, associations, foundations, and businesses working together.
