This chapter shall be known as the "Inland Wetlands and Watercourses
Conservation Commission Regulations of the Town of Griswold, Connecticut"
and is hereby referred to as "this chapter."
This chapter has been prepared by the Griswold Inland Wetlands
and Watercourses Conservation Commission. This Commission's authority
is granted by Sections 22a-36 through 22a-45 of the Connecticut General
Statutes, collectively known as the "Connecticut Inland Wetlands and
Watercourses Act"; and as authorized by an ordinance of the Griswold
Town Meeting on November 19, 1973.
All wetlands, as defined in this chapter, are shown, for general
reference purposes only, on a map entitled "Inland Wetlands Map of
Griswold, Connecticut" as filed in the office of the Town Clerk. In
all instances, the actual characteristics of the soils of a given
site, as determined by a soil scientist, shall determine whether the
land in question constitutes a wetland, as defined in this chapter.
