Watersheds -
Naugatuck River Watershed
The watershed encompasses 312 square miles of land, 39 miles of the
Naugatuck River and many miles of tributaries. The work on the river and
its tributaries includes: the significant improvement of water quality (
up-grading of municipal and industry discharges into the watershed),
establishment of habitat and food sources for fish and wildlife, the
construction of walking paths, watercraft launching sites and angler
access locations, and archaeological assessment surveys of dam sites
where construction and/or demolition work will be done. The construction
of an in-stream by-pass channel for watercraft and fish at the Tingue
Dam in Seymour may be one of a few of its kind in the country.
