CEPA Determination:  On February 5, 2013 the Department of Public Health (DPH) published a Notice of Scoping to solicit public comments for this project in the Environmental Monitor.

The Department of Energy and Environmental Protection provided comments dated March 7, 2013. Based upon the DPH's environmental assessment of this project including all comments received, it has been determined that the project does not require the preparation of Environmental Impact Evaluation (EIE) under the Connecticut Environmental Policy Act (CEPA). The DPH will coordinate with the United States Environmental Protection Agency and the Town of Prospect to ensure that the recommendations by the DEEP and DPH will be implemented.

The agency's conclusion is documented in a Memorandum of Findings and Determination and an Environmental Assessment Checklist.
