On May 14, 2021, the Connecticut State Senate unanimously approved the Long Island Sound Blue Plan (Blue Plan). The Connecticut House of Representatives approved the plan in late April; the effect of the Senate’s action makes the Blue Plan effective immediately. The adoption of the Blue Plan is the end result of a process that was started in 2015 with the enactment of Public Act 15-66, “An Act Concerning a Long Island Sound Blue Plan and Resource and Use Inventory.”
