CEPA Determination:  On April 19, 2016 the Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT) published a Notice of Scoping to solicit public comments for this project in the Environmental Monitor.  During the scoping period, CTDOT received comments from the Office of Policy and Management (OPM), the Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection (CTDEEP), and the Department of Public Health (DPH) Drinking Water Section.  CTDOT has taken all comments into consideration and has concluded that the project does not require the preparation of Environmental Impact Evaluation under CEPA.
