Bill > SB00126

This bill authorizes the State Bond Commission to issue state bonds to provide funding for environmental cleanup in the town of Fairfield. Specifically, the bill allows the Department of Energy and Environmental Protection to receive bond proceeds to issue a grant to Fairfield for remediating waste contamination at a specific location known as the "Fairfield fill pile". The bill follows standard state bonding procedures outlined in section 3-20 of the general statutes, which governs how the state can issue bonds for specific public purposes. While the exact total amount of bonding is not specified in the bill (indicated by blank lines), the funds are earmarked exclusively for addressing environmental contamination at this site, with the goal of cleaning up potentially hazardous waste and protecting the local environment. The bill represents a targeted approach to addressing a specific environmental remediation need in the town of Fairfield.
