 It is hereby found and declared that a Connecticut Equestrian Center located in Keney Park in the capital city of this state will attract a significant share of equestrian events, thereby promoting the economic development of the state, increasing tourism by creating a nationally competitive center which will attract regional, national and international equestrian events and promoting business activity and employment in hotels, restaurants and recreational and support facilities. It is further found and declared that preliminary economic feasibility analyses respecting the planning for a new equestrian center in Hartford have shown that new spending by visitors to anticipated horse shows should generate an increase in revenues to the state from taxes on dollars spent by visitors and exhibitors of equine activities, and that this project will recapture Connecticut-based equestrian show activities currently being diverted to other states for the lack of a modern equine center, thereby improving the state's economy and increasing the state's tax revenues, promote equestrian activities for the enjoyment and health of Connecticut's citizens and provide a center which can assist in the advancement of Connecticut's husbandry industries through research and educational programs.(P.A. 95-231, S. 2, 5.)History: P.A. 95-231 effective July 1, 1995.

2020 Connecticut General Statutes|Title 22a - Environmental Protection|Chapter 439 - Department of Energy and Environmental Protection. State Policy|Section 22a-1 - Policy of the state.

 The General Assembly finds that the growing population and expanding economy of the state have had a profound impact on the life-sustaining natural environment. The air, water, land and other natural resources, taken for granted since the settlement of the state, are now recognized as finite and precious. It is now understood that human activity must be guided by and in harmony with the system of relationships among the elements of nature. Therefore the General Assembly hereby declares that the policy of the state of Connecticut is to conserve, improve and protect its natural resources and environment and to control air, land and water pollution in order to enhance the health, safety and welfare of the people of the state. It shall further be the policy of the state to improve and coordinate the environmental plans, functions, powers and programs of the state, in cooperation with the federal government, regions, local governments, other public and private organizations and concerned individuals, and to manage the basic resources of air, land and water to the end that the state may fulfill its responsibility as trustee of the environment for the present and future generations.(1971, P.A. 872, S. 1.)Cited. 184 C. 51; 204 C. 38; Id., 212; 212 C. 727; 227 C. 71; Id., 175; 235 C. 448.Cited. 12 CA 47; 41 CA 120.State's alleged failure to conduct an environmental impact evaluation prior to transfer is not a per se violation of statute that would grant plaintiffs standing under Sec. 22a-16. 51 CS 590.

2020 Connecticut General Statutes|Title 22a - Environmental Protection|Chapter 439 - Department of Energy and Environmental Protection. State Policy|Section 22a-1a - Declaration of policy: Coordination of state plans and programs.

 (a) In furtherance of and pursuant to sections 22a-1 and 22a-15, the General Assembly, recognizing the profound impact of man's activity on the interrelations of all components of the natural environment, particularly the profound influence of population growth, high-density urbanization, industrial expansion, resource exploitation, and new and expanding technological advances, and recognizing further the critical importance of restoring and maintaining environmental quality to the overall welfare and development of man, declares that it is the continuing policy of the state government, in cooperation with federal and local governments, and other concerned public and private organizations, to use all practicable means and measures, including financial and technical assistance, in a manner calculated to foster and promote the general welfare, to create and maintain conditions under which man and nature can exist in productive harmony, and fulfill the social, economic, and other requirements of present and future generations of Connecticut residents.(b) In order to carry out the policy set forth in sections 22a-1a to 22a-1f, inclusive, it is the continuing responsibility of the state government to use all practicable means, consistent with other essential considerations of state policy, to improve and coordinate state plans, functions, programs, and resources to the end that the state may: (1) Fulfill the responsibility of each generation as trustee of the environment for succeeding generations; (2) assure for all residents of the state safe, healthful, productive, and esthetically and culturally pleasing surroundings; (3) attain the widest range of beneficial uses of the environment without degradation, risk to health or safety, or other undesirable and unintended consequences; (4) preserve important historic, cultural, and natural aspects of our Connecticut heritage, and maintain, wherever possible, an environment which supports diversity and variety of individual choice; (5) achieve an ecological balance between population and resource use which will permit high standards of living and a wide sharing of life's amenities; (6) enhance the quality of renewable resources and approach the maximum attainable recycling of depletable resources; and (7) practice conservation in the use of energy, maximize the use of energy efficient systems and minimize the environmental impact of energy production and use.(P.A. 73-562, S. 1, 8; P.A. 77-514, S. 1.)History: P.A. 77-514 added Subsec.
