Connecticuta s smaller harbors seek a spot in port authority

The nearly two dozen small harbors in Connecticut that promote economic development in towns from Norwalk to Groton are fighting to be included in the state's new Port Authority that focuses on the three deep water ports in Bridgeport, New Haven and New London. A state report to Gov. Dannel P. Malloy and the legislature says Connecticut's ports are a "critical, but underutilized" part of the state's economy and calls for continuing programs that support the maritime economy, "particularly in smaller and mid-size harbors."
