Wynn-1, Somerville-0.

Somerville Mayor Joseph A. Curtatone’s appeal against Wynn’s proposed $2 billion casino in Everett—the Wynn Boston Harbor—has been dealt a major blow last week after a state environmental officer recommended the casino operator’s needed environmental license be granted, state news outlets reported.

Jane Rothchild, a hearing officer for Massachusetts’ Department of Environmental Protection, came out with a 50-page decision that backed Wynn’s plans for the casino resort, albeit with some revisions that include adding ferry services, a fishing pier, and a kayak and canoe launch near the complex.

Rothchild pointed out that the casino project will bring back “to useful life” the 33 acres of land that has been contaminated for decades with lead, arsenic and other pollutants.
