A new state audit has criticized the Connecticut Port Authority for permitting the construction management company that is overseeing the redevelopment of the Connecticut State Pier in New London to recommend itself for several multimillion-dollar subcontracts for the public infrastructure project.
A former board member of the Connecticut Port Authority will pay $18,500 in fines related to allegations that he used his position to benefit a maritime company which he co-founded, the Office of State Ethics announced Friday.
