Public hearing on an environmental cleanup to be held Tuesday in Montville

Montville — The town will hold a public hearing at 6 p.m. Tuesday on an environmental cleanup effort planned for the property at 14 Bridge Street.

The town has received an Environmental Protection Agency grant and a state Brownfields Cleanup grant to clean up the area. The site is owned by the town and partially occupied by Impulse Design. Questions and comments will be addressed at the public hearing, which will be held in the Town Council chambers.

Environmental remediation is scheduled to start on April 30 and will run through June 30. The site has several environmental concerns because it was previously used for chemical storage, which included the use of underground tanks.

A 30-day public comment period commenced on Jan. 9 and will go through Feb. 9. Written comments may be mailed to the town at 310 Norwich-New London Turnpike, Uncasville, CT 06382 or emailed to Finance Director Terry Hart at finance@montville-ct.org.
