Section 305(b) of the Clean Water Act requires each state to monitor, assess and report on the quality of its waters relative to attainment of designated uses established by the State's water quality standards. Section 303(d) requires each State to compile a subset of that list identifying only those waters not meeting water quality standards and assign a Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) priority ranking to each impaired waterbody.</font></p><p style='margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:1.5rem; font-family:&quot;Avenir Next W01&quot;, &quot;Avenir Next W00&quot;, &quot;Avenir Next&quot;, Avenir, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif; font-size:16px;'><font size='2' style='font-family:inherit;'>This assessment is based on information collected and compiled prior to 2016. It represents conditions at a particular point in time and does not represent current conditions. Depending on the type of waterbody - river, lake, or estuary - this information geographically displays attainment and non-attainment (e.g. full supporting, not supporting, not assessed) for each designated use - aquatic life, marine aquatic life, recreation use, fish consumption, shellfish harvesting, and drinking water supply.</font></p>
Prescription Monitoring Program: Proportion of Opioid Agonists per Morphine Milligram Equivalent (MME) Category

This dataset shows the proportion of opioid agonists per Morphine Milligram Equivalent (MME) of opioid prescription dispensed. The morphine milligram equivalent is an opioid dosage equivalent to morphine. This measurement is used to determine the abuse and overdose potential, and to set thresholds for prescribing and dispensing opioids. The lowest effective dosage is set at less than 50 MME and the highest is greater than 90 MME.
Public Libraries

The Public Libraries data set aggregates individual library services and finance data to the town level.

Public libraries provide free borrowing privileges and services to their patrons and receive financial support from local tax funds. Public libraries may be municipal, which are established by and administrative units of local government, or association, which are not units of town government but receive some public funding. Some towns are served by more than one public library. 

Library visits include all persons entering a library for any purpose, including persons attending meetings or activities and persons requiring no staff assistance. Circulation counts all library materials of all formats lent out for use outside the library, including renewals. Registered borrowers are all town residents to whom a library has issued membership. Reference questions counts all interactions in which library staff provide information, knowledge, or recommendations to patrons. Town tax appropriation indicates the funds allotted to the library's operation budget from the town. The Adjusted Equalized Net Grand List per Capita (AENGLC) measures town wealth based on property tax and income per capita.
State of CT: Open Expenditures - Ledger ---Deprecated

This data allows citizens to view who received payments from the state for goods or services and how much they received. The data can be explored by searching for specific payee names or by browsing by Government Function. <a href="http://opencheckbook.ct.gov">The Open Checkbook app</a> allows the user to drill down from aggregated spending accounts all the way down to each individual payment to a payee. 

The  data is updated nightly and therefore reflects current spending activities more accurately than any other publicly available source. In general the data reflects all payments made up to 24 to 48 hours prior to view.

Certain payee names have been removed in order to protect the privacy of individuals, in accordance with Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) regulations or where the information is otherwise protected by law. 

Redacted information includes:
•Payees who are statutorily protected
•Information that would lead to violating HIPAA laws
•Information of Minors
Cannabis Retail Products Sold by Product Type

This data set contains preliminary retail sales data for cannabis and cannabis products by product type in the adult-use cannabis and medical marijuana markets based on total sales data. The data reported is compiled at specific points in time and only captures data current at the time the report is generated. The monthly data set captures retail cannabis sales from the first through the last day of the month. Data values may be updated and change over time as updates occur. Accordingly, monthly reported data may not exactly match annually reported data.
Prescription Monitoring Program: Top 5 Benzodiazepine Prescriptions Dispensed

This dataset includes the Top 5 benzodiazepine prescriptions dispensed on a quarterly basis, showing the last day of the preceding quarter. Drug names presented are the generic classification. Prescription benzodiazepines are controlled substances, which slow down the central nervous system, and often used to relieve anxiety and muscle spasms, as well as reduce seizures.
Wildlife Action Plan Manage Conservation Opportunity 2025

<p>The 2025 Connecticut State Wildlife Action Plan conservation opportunity areas (COAs) represent locations partners can conduct actions to benefit wildlife populations and habitats and achieve State Wildlife Action Plan Goals. There are 7 total COAs that represent broad actions: protect, connect, restore, manage, partner, inform, and research and monitor. This effort combined ecological and social data in a spatial prioritization software called Zonation to identify priority areas that reflect the 7 actions. Each COA has different ecological and/or social data included to reflect its unique goal.&nbsp;</p>

Energy Storage Solutions (ESS) Aggregate Loadshape

The Energy Storage Solutions (ESS) program is an incentive program designed to help Eversource and United Illuminating (UI) customers install battery energy storage systems for their home or business. The program helps lower the cost of buying a battery by providing upfront and performance incentives. This incentive program is overseen by the Public Utilities Regulatory Authority (PURA), is paid for by electric ratepayers, and is administered by the Connecticut Green Bank, Eversource, and UI.

This time series dataset shows the aggregate "load shape", or average system power, of all batteries enrolled in Connecticut's Virtual Power Plant (VPP) as operated through the ESS program, broken down by residential or commercial host sites, at 15-minute intervals. Positive values indicate charging activity, while negative values indicate discharge to local load or the grid. Telemetry data, including historical data, is subject to ongoing quality control and quality assurance and may be updated, revised, or corrected periodically.

More information and an interactive dashboard of this and other program data can be found at https://energystoragect.com/ess-performance-report/
Underground Storage Tanks (USTs) - Compliance Details

This list provides Underground Storage Tank (UST) site, tank, contact and Enforcement information for the approximately 45,000 commercial underground storage tanks (USTs) previously or currently registered in Connecticut, of which about 8,000 are still in use.
Compliance Details are the individual inspected compliance points that are referenced in a Field Notice of Violation (FNOV), Warning Letter, or Red Tag which can be issued by the Agency and contain information about how and when the compliance point has been resolved. The UST Site ID, Field NOV and Warning Letter numbers are included to cross-reference to the Enforcement Summary.

(There are 3 other related data sets: 1-Facility and Tank Details, 2-Contacts, and 
3-Enforcement Summary.)

Annually, or when a UST is installed, removed, or altered, a notification form must be completed via EZFile and submitted to CT DEEP. Notification is required for non-residential underground storage tanks, including those for oil, petroleum and chemical liquids, as well as residential home heating oil tanks serving five or more units. See online at: https://www.ct.gov/deep/cwp/view.asp?q=322600

The underground storage tank regulations and the Connecticut underground storage tank enforcement program have been in effect since November 1985. This list is based on notification information submitted by the public since 1985, and is updated weekly. This list contains information on both active and on non-active USTs, as well as federally regulated and state regulated USTs.

Factors to Consider When Using this data:

-Not every required notification form is submitted to the DEEP. We can only enter the information we receive.

-We know there are errors in the data although we strive to minimize them. Error examples may include: notification forms completed incorrectly by the owner/operator, data entry errors, duplicate site information, misspelled names and addresses and/or missing data.

Roberta Willis Scholarship Program Analysis

The Roberta B. Willis Scholarship Program (RWSP) is the state's primary financial aid program for Connecticut residents enrolled as undergraduates at Connecticut public and independent higher education institutions. The RWSP is comprised of both a need-based grant and a need-merit scholarship, both designed to provide aid to low-income students in Connecticut. This dashboard displays various indicators on the Roberta Willis Scholarship Program in Connecticut, including both the need-based grant and the need-merit scholarship.
Adoptions by SFY, DCF Office, Race/Ethnicity and Length of Stay

This dataset contains aggregate data concerning the number of children that exited DCF care to an Adoption.  These figures are broken out by the DCF Region and Office responsible for the child's care, by their Race/Ethnicity, and by whether their exit from care occurred within 24 months of their entry to care or not.  It would be appropriate to roll up the data from all variables across multiple time periods, as they represent specific events in the lives of these children.  Please note that these figures do not represent unique children, and so should not be used as the basis for creating a rate based on the child population of the state.  These data form the basis of measurement for the Juan F. Consent Decree Exit Plan Outcome #8: Adoption Within 24 Months, although those figures are reported to the DCF Court Monitor on a quarterly rather than annual schedule.
School Attendance by School, 2020-2021

This dataset includes the attendance rate for public school students PK-12 by school during the 2020-2021 school year.

When no attendance data is displayed in a cell, data have been suppressed to safeguard student confidentiality, or to ensure that statistics based on a very small sample size are not interpreted as equally representative as those based on a sufficiently larger sample size.

Connected Sewer Service Areas

This data was created through the modification of an existing sewer service dataset from the CT Office of Policy and Management (OPM), in addition to sewer data from the Southeastern Connecticut Council Of Government (SCCOG) and the Town of Stonington. It also includes data from the Sewer Service Area 2018 file in areas where the OPM dataset was not as current. <div><br /></div><div>The OPM data was modified by reducing the extensive categories which represent all areas containing sewers to a &quot;Connected&quot; classification.</div><div><br /></div><div>SCCOG Data:
Data was clipped to individual municipal boundaries for all 21 municipalities with sewer information within the SCCOG. The &quot;Existing&quot; category from attribute table was extracted via selection to create the &quot;Connected&quot; areas for 19/21 municipalities. The Town of Stonington data was merged with the SCCOG data as both had areas which were not included in the other. The North Stonington data was combined with SSA 2018 data to get the most accurate representation for that town. </div><div><br /></div><div>OPM Data:
Data was modified to isolate the undefined and fragmented categories, (QA- using municipal websites, PDF maps and local contacts for verification where available) then Clipped to municipal boundaries. All the areas that are connected to sewers were Dissolved, only maintaining the key fields listed and described below. </div><div><br /></div><div>The datasets were combined using the Merge tool to get all the connected sewer service areas in the state.</div><div><br /></div><div>Description of Fields:</div><div><br /></div><div>TOWN- Represents all the municipalities with the state of CTs boundaries. </div><div><br /></div><div>CNTY_NAME- Represents the eight (8) county names to which each municipality belongs to.

For municipalities without sewers, “Not Applicable” is the designated value. </div><div><br /></div><div>PASSTHROUGH- This field identifies if the wastewater passes through other municipalities on the way to the treatment facility (endpoint) as denoted by a &quot;Yes&quot; or &quot;No&quot; value. </div><div><br /></div><div>Feature class is symbolized on the Sewer Status field to show the “Connected” (green). </div><div><br /></div><div>DEEP welcomes the opportunity to receive any feedback that can help improve the quality of the information presented in this map by contacting Carlos Esguerra (carlos.esguerra@ct.gov).</div>
COVID-19 Updated (Bivalent) Vaccine Coverage By Age Group - ARCHIVED

<strong>These tables will stop being updated after June 1, 2023.  COVID-19 vaccination reporting is expected to resume when a new COVID-19 vaccination formulation is authorized.</strong></p>

Updated (Bivalent) COVID- 19 Vaccination by Age Group

As 4/22/2023, CDC recommends bivalent vaccine for everyone regardless of age and whether or not the person has had prior monovalent vaccine. 

This table shows the cumulative number and percentage of people who have received an updated (bivalent) COVID-19 vaccine by age group . 

•	Data are reported weekly on Thursday and include doses administered to Saturday of the previous week. 

•	All data in this report are preliminary. Data for previous weeks may be changed because of delays in reporting, deduplication, or correction of errors. 

•	The table groups people based on their current age and excludes people known to be deceased. 

•	The analyses here are based on data reported to CT WiZ which is the immunization information system for CT. Connecticut COVID-19 Vaccine Program providers are required to report to CT WiZ all COVID-19 doses administered in CT including to CT residents and to residents of other jurisdictions. CT Wiz also receives records on CT residents vaccinated in other jurisdictions and by federal entities which share data with CT WiZ electronically (currently:  RI, NJ, New York City, DE, Philadelphia, NV, Indian Health Service, Department of Veterans Affairs (doses administered since 11/2022)).   Electronic data exchange is being added jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction.  Once a jurisdiction is added to CT WiZ, the records for residents of that jurisdiction vaccinated in CT are removed. For example, when CT residents vaccinated in NYC were added, NYC residents vaccinated in CT were removed.

•	Population size estimates used to calculate cumulative percentages are based on 2020 DPH provisional census estimates**.

•	Cumulative percentage estimates have been capped at 100%. Observed percentages may be higher than 100% for multiple reasons, inaccuracies in the census denominators or reporting errors.
