Located on an abandoned factory site, CVEC’s development included restoring wetlands damaged during prior uses of the property, and purchasing and remediating an adjacent property, locally known as the Rasco site. Throughout our remediation efforts, the CVEC team has conserved 79 of the project’s 193 acres and has not displaced any critical, threatened, or endangered species or habitats.
The CVEC facility does not operate or work within the Great Swamp Critical Environmental Area, and there is no hydraulic fracturing, or “fracking,” at this project. The project was honored with the Ducks Unlimited Wetlands Remediation Award in 2017 for revitalizing the site’s wetlands and for its commitment to protecting the wetlands for future generations.
