Protecting Burlington Watercourses and Wetlands since 2010

The Town of Burlington Inland Wetlands and Watercourses Commission (IWWC) shall enforce the Inland Wetlands and Watercourses Act and shall issue permits with terms, conditions, limitations or modifications OR deny permits for all regulated activities in Burlington pursuant to State Statutes sections 22a-36 to 22a-45, inclusive.

The IWWC consists of seven appointed members plus three appointed alternates. Our Commission holds Regular Meetings on the 2nd Wednesday of the month, typically at 7:15pm unless noted otherwise.

We work closely with Burlington's Wetlands Agent to be sure that all planned activities and/or uses are in compliance with our regulations and our Health District regulations.

Our application can be found online in PermitLink. Please read the options on each application to choose which one you are submitting. For example: For an Agent Determination, you should submit a Wetlands permit application online and, on page 2, choose the Application Type of 'Agent Determination'.

If you cannot find an application online for your needs or have questions, please call the Land Use Department at 860-673-6789, ext. 6.
