Groton — Does the community think tiny liquor bottles are creating a litter problem?
That’s one of the questions the Groton Conservation Commission is posing in a new poll of residents and business owners to find out if they would support a potential statewide ban on small liquor bottles, or nips, Chairman Larry Dunn said.
“The Town of Groton is interested in getting your input on a potential bill proposal to ban tiny liquor bottles, also known as Nips, in the State of Connecticut,” the survey introduction states. The nonprofit organization Environment and Human Health Inc. is working on a draft bill that it hopes to have sponsored and introduced in the upcoming legislative session, it says. "In the event the bill is introduced, your input will be helpful in considering whether the Town of Groton should support the bill.”
