Jodi Rell came to one of the nation's largest Superfund sites Monday to sign into law a bill that could derail the federal Environmental Protection Agency's plans to dig up hazardous waste around town and create dumpsites in residential neighborhoods. The bill, co-sponsored by state Sen. Dan Debicella, R-Shelton, and Rep. John Harkins, R-Stratford, was prompted by a groundswell of protest last year from hundreds of local residents in a grassroots group that became known as "SaveStratford." |

Thursday, May 28, 2009
Those who want all Raymark waste removed from Stratford say last week’s illegal excavation proves their point.
Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal won a court order May 21 to stop excavation of contaminated soil at 340 East Main St. Blumenthal said the work had continued all week despite a cease and desist order from the state Department of Environmental Protection.
Save Stratford, which has lobbied for removal from Stratford of soil contaminated by the former manufacturer of brakes and clutches, said the excavation was done with “blatant disregard of the health risks to area residents, businesses and schoolchildren.”
Making it worse, Save Stratford said, a first grade class from Wilcoxson Elementary School walked past the site during a field trip May 19, two days before the public was made aware of the situation. |
