State Rep. Laura Hoydick, who represents Stratford's 120th House district, said the grant from the state Department of Energy and Environmental Protection would go a long way toward cleaning up the spilled lubricants, hydraulic fluids, paints, metal shavings, fuels, thinners and other toxic waste at the once industrial site, added the Connecticut Post. 

Official approval of the grant will be held on Jan. 29, when the Bond Commission meets to consider its passage, said the Connecticut Post.
