Love's Travel Center on RT84.
Trout Unlimited
Thames Valley Chapter 282
"Bulletin"
Conserve, Protect and Restore Eastern CT Trout and Salmon and their Watersheds.
Special Bulletin
As many of our members know, the Love's Travel Center (truck stop) has become an issue of importance to the the environmental community including Trout Unlimited chapters in Connecticut.
The Willington Inland and Wetlands Watercourses Commission (IWWC) will be addressing this issue during their Monday,February 25th meeting at 7:30 at the Willington Town Offices.
Love's is coming back to IWWC to request a modification to their original permit. The modification is required due to the changes they made to the location and size of their wastewater treatment system, which placed them closer to wetlands. The DEEP hearing process last year was mostly focused on how well the system would renovate effluent and protect ground water. Now that it's back in IWWC's court, we can focus on how the construction and maintenance of the system could affect surface waters in wetlands and Roaring Brook.
It is important to get as many people possible to the Feb 25th meeting to show IWWC that there is enough public interest to schedule the application for a public hearing at another date.
The public hearing would allow us to raise concerns and submit new information that IWWC never had previous access to, such as Brian Murphy's newest fishery report, showing that one of the wetland drainages functions as a spawning ground.
The Willington Town Offices are located at 40 Old Farms Road - enter building through the lower level in back of building ).
Issues such as this are at the heart of what Trout Unlimited is about.
If you have any questions regarding this issue, contact Mike Carl email or Charlie McCaughtry email for more info.
Hope to see you there!is the primary target of this press release - reporters, investors, partners or customers? Make sure that your words are pertinent to your audience.
Stress the benefits. Avoid subjective language like "the greatest" or "the best".
