  Brian A. Goldman , legal counsel to the state's Coastal Resources Management Council , said that development on the property would be devastating to the environment.
  
  Westerly , in the southwestern section of the state , is on the Connecticut border , separated only by the Pawcatuck River.The state's eastern and southern borders are on the water , and the sea has always been an integral part of Rhode Island's heritage.
  
  Coastal marshlands provide a filtering mechanism that prevents pollution in ponds and the ocean , and also are breeding grounds for fish and shellfish , Goldman said.
  
  ''To destroy 18 acres of salt marsh would have an effect not only on the pollution levels ... but also on commercial fishing , '' Goldman said.
