Esty Hears It from Testy Residents on Haddam Land Swap

Folks in central Connecticut are really pissed still about a deal the Connecticut DEEP made to trade 16 acres near the Connecticut River in Haddam for five times more land next to a state park. DEEP Commissioner Dan Esty took a boat tour yesterday to view the aftermath of Hurricane Irene and then met with residents, and apparently there was a bit of an edge to the meeting.

The Day covered it, here, and also provided a quick summary of other issues -- particularly concerning catch limits on fish in Long Island Sound.
