| Project Description |
The Connecticut Department of Environmental Protection (CT DEP) has compiled information on enforcement/inspections at junkyards throughout the state and information from Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) on the licensed junkyards in the state (includes principal names). The information is currently being entered into one database. At the same time the Agency is including the coordinates for mapping as a data layer in ECO (the GIS mapping site for the CT DEP). This will enable the overlay of valuable information, including groundwater classification, proximity to water bodies, and environmental justice communities, with the location of the junkyards. The next step is to go out to the sites that are missing complete addresses to obtain the coordinates for and map those using GIS. |
