  • Pheasant Hunting in Connecticut Changes in 2017
    Pheasant Hunting in Connecticut Changes in 2017: This year, the DEEP will purchase a total of 15,000 adult pheasants. This year 7-8 areas will be stocked on Saturday morning and afternoon and will only be open to hunters with a Saturday a.m. (9 am -12 noon) or Saturday p.m. (1:30 pm - 4:30 pm) permit. These select areas will be stocked prior to the morning permit and during the afternoon break to assure hunters that birds will be available at these areas on the weekend. These areas will include: Cromwell Meadows WMA, Durham Meadows WMA, Housatonic WMA, Nathan Hale State Forest, Naugatuck State Forest (Hunter's Mountain Block only), Simsbury WMA and Skiff Mountain Coop WMA. All hunters wishing to use these areas on Saturdays must have a Saturday permit and will only be able to be present during the specified time on the daily permit. Saturday permits for these areas will only be available on the Online Sportsmen Licensing System the Monday preceding the Saturday hunts starting at 12:01 am. As in past years, the third week of November (13th - 18th) will be an abbreviated week. During that week birds will only be released in the beginning of the week at all areas except: Cromwell Meadows, Durham Meadows WMA, East Windsor/Enfield PR Area, Higganum Meadows WMA, Housatonic WMA, Mansfield Hollow, MDC New Hartford, Simsbury WMA, Suffield WMA and Thomaston Dam. CONNECTICUT RESIDENT GAME BIRD CONSERVATION STAMP: All pheasant hunters must purchase a Resident Game Bird Conservation Stamp, along with a hunting license.

  • Factsheet: City of Middletown Water Quality and Stormwater Summary
    79 Elm Street • Hartford, CT 06106-5127 www.ct.gov/deep Affirmative Action/Equal Opportunity Employer Factsheet: City of Middletown Water Quality and Stormwater Summary This document was created for each town that has submitted monitoring data under the current Small Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) General Permit. What follows is information on how stormwater can affect water quality in streams and rivers and a summary of data submitted by your town. This factsheet is intended to help you interpret your monitoring results and assist you in compliance with the MS4 program. Water Quality in Connecticut Surface waters are important resources that support numerous uses, including water supply, recreation, fishing, shellfishing and sustaining aquatic life. Water quality conditions needed to support these uses are identified within the Connecticut Water Quality Standards (WQS). In order to protect and restore these uses, we need acceptable environmental conditions (physical, chemical and biological) to be present within surface waters. To assess and track water quality conditions, CT DEEP conducts monitoring across the State. The data is synthesized into a biennial state water quality report called the Integrated Water Quality Report. Currently, specific water quality monitoring in the state encompasses about 50% of rivers, 47% of lakes, and 100% of estuary/coastline. In addition, CT DEEP may have information about certain land uses or discharges which could indicate a potential for water quality to be impacted, even if the waterbody has not been fully monitored and assessed. To find more detailed information on water quality in your town, please see the Integrated Water Quality Report (IWQR) on the CT DEEP website at www.ct.gov/deep/iwqr.

Mission: To work with landowners to protect ecosystems, watersheds, wildlife corridors, scenic views and other conservation values, to provide opportunities for public recreation and to foster public support for the preservation of open space. The Norfolk Land Trust was organized in 1982 to encourage the keeping of open space in Norfolk and neighboring towns for the public benefit. The Norfolk Land Trust is committed to preserving land that meets any of the following goals: A. Conservation 1. Wetlands 2. Lands important to the protection of water supplies and aquifers 3. Areas sustaining unusual plant or animal communities 4. Farmland B. Recreation, education and preservation of significant historical sites 1. Trails for hiking and cross-country skiing 2.
