CT River Conservancy

@GovPhilScott @GovNedLamont @GovKathyHochul The Connecticut River runs through a watershed primarily including 4 states - NH, VT, MA, and CT. And is named as such not for one of the states, but from the Mohegan word quinetucket and Nipmuc word kwinitekw, which mean "beside the long, tidal river." #riverfacts
