The Supreme Judicial Court has ruled in Boston's favor over Quincy's in the years-long battle to rebuild the Long Island Bridge in Boston Harbor.
Boston's effort to build a new bridge to Long Island got a lift Monday with a favorable high court ruling.that a state Department of Environmental Protection order supersedes the Quincy Conservation Commission's application denial related to the bridge construction because the commission did not apply"more stringent" rules in its review than the state did.
Because the project would have an impact on wetlands in Quincy, Boston petitioned the Quincy commission for permission to build the bridge. After the commission denied Boston's application, Boston applied to MassDEP for a superseding order of conditions and DEP allowed the project to proceed. The court said the State Wetlands Protection Act addresses the commission's concerns around how work on the piers would affect fisheries, wildlife habitat, pollution, land under the ocean and land containing shellfish.
