Former State Pier tenant files appeal of decision to issue permit for wind hub work

DRVN Enterprises filed an appeal in Superior Court this week in another attempt to block a portion of the construction work at State Pier in New London. The appeal, filed in New Britain Superior Court on Monday, asks the court to reverse a decision by the state Department of Energy and Environmental Protection to issue a permit needed by the Connecticut Port Authority for some aspects of the project. DRVN is appealing the Aug. 3 decision by DEEP Commissioner Katherine Dykes, who recommended a permit be issued for work that includes dredging and filling in more than 7 acres between the two existing piers. Dykes later rejected an objection from DRVN. DRVN is asking a court to order DEEP to stay and overturn the Aug. 3 decision or for an order remanding DEEP to remedy the alleged errors. DRVN also is seeking unspecified award of damages and attorney fees.
