• Killingly wetlands commission advocates for repair of Old Killingly Pond Dam, objects to permanent drawdown (theday.com) — Killingly officials are pushing the state to repair and maintain the Old Killingly Pond Dam rather than allow a permanent 15‑foot drawdown that would drastically shrink the pond. The wetlands commission backed a strong letter to DEEP urging state ownership, citing threats to local habitats, downstream reservoirs, and a cherished recreational resource, while residents and a local state representative rally behind saving the pond.
