This report will be generated each year and will be made available in electronic and hard copy form. It will provide definitive information and detailed summaries of all yearly projects, events, activities, forums, and accomplishments conducted/achieved by the Center and its personnel. The CCMS Annual Report will be completed and submitted to the Werth Family Foundation during February of each year. Contents of the CCMS 2011-2012 Annual Report are described below. I.

It has also shown an inverse correlation to sediment grain size. Using sediment copper concentrations, grain size data, and loss-on-ignition (organics content) data, a multivariate linear model was created that allowed prediction of copper concentration at sample stations from grain size and loss-on-ignition data alone.

  • Report on Manresa Island Findings and Recommendations Now Complete
    Media Contact Josh Morgan Communications Manager & Grants Coordinator [email protected] norwalkct.org P: 203-854-7894 C: 203-957-2945 For Immediate Release Thursday, January 31, 2019 Report on Manresa Island findings and recommendations now complete (Norwalk, Conn.) – After more than two years of work, a report studying the redevelopment possibilities of Manresa Island is now complete. The four concepts outlined in the report are: a marina and boatyard; a renewable solar energy generation and storage facility, an educational campus, and a residential single-family home development. All four concepts include preserving open space and public access on the island. The full report can be viewed at norwalkct.org/manresareport. Manresa Island is comprised of two parcels that occupy approximately 144 acres of Norwalk’s shoreline. In 1960, a power plant was commissioned on the southern parcel by Connecticut Light & Power. The plant began operations as a coal-fired plant but was converted to oil in 1972. In 1999, the property was acquired by NRG Energy. In 2012, the site was inundated with storm surge during Hurricane Sandy and was subsequently closed in 2013. In 2017 the 501(c)(3) nonprofit Manresa Association and the City of Norwalk partnered to conduct a study with the aim of identifying potential future uses of the property and assessing the potential economic impact of those uses. Each contributed $75,000 to fund these efforts. “Getting to this point is the result of a great public and private partnership between the city and Manresa Association. We are committed to working with NRG, Manresa, and state and federal agencies to optimize the reuse of this property,” said Norwalk Mayor Harry Rilling.
