NORWALK, Conn. Norwalk officials say they caught the State “DOT” red handed last week, violating at least two out of the three permit conditions in Walk Bridge-connected work.
The Connecticut Department of Transportation was working Dec. 9 on an underwater cable, dredging near the Walk Bridge, Shellfish Commissioner Steven Bartush and Norwalk Police Officer Mike Silva said at Wednesday’s Harbor Management Commission meeting. Although the permit said the work could only be done with “appropriate containment” and only on an incoming, or slack tide, the curtains designed to contain the silt released by dredging were “inadequate,” Bartush said. The tide was heading out, meaning that silt was heading toward the shellfish in the harbor.
