  • Geologic Map of the Portland [15-Minute] Quadrangle, Maine
    / Maine Geological Survey To Accompany Map GM-1. GEOLOGIC 11AP OF THE PORTLAND QUADRANGLE, !1aine by Arthur M. Hussey, II STRATIGRAPHY MERRIMACK GROUP. In Southwestern Maine the Merrimack Group consists of, in ascending stratigraphic order, the Kittery, Eliot, and Berwick Formations. The Formations are dominantly an assemblage of interbedded quartzo- f eldspathic schists or phyllites and calcareous metaquartzite and granu­ lite with minor metapelite and calcareous metapelite. In the Portland quadrangle the Group is represented by the Berwick and Windham Formations, the latter being a new stratigraphic name proposed here for the first time, and tentatively correlated with the Eliot Formation. These two formations crop out over much of the northwestern half of the quadrangle. Ben1ick Formation(DSb). The Berwick Formation has been mapped from the type locality in the Salmon Falls River in Berwick, Maine, northeast into the Portland Quadrangle. Katz (1917) proposed the name Berwick Gneiss for this formation, and because he felt these rocks were more metamorphosed than surrounding rocks, he regarded them to be of Precambrian age. Freedman (1950) renamed the unit the Berwick Formation because of variability of texture and structure of the rock and alternation of lithic types. He clearly pointed out the probable Paleozoic age of the unit. The principal part of the Formation (DSb) consists of thin-to medium­ bedded, occasionally massive, biotite quartzite and quartz-biotite schist containing variable amounts of plagioclase. Locally interbedded with these rock types is quartz-biotite-muscovite schist with very rare garnet and staurolite. Thin calc-silicate beds and pods up to 6" thick, containing hornblende, and occasionally diopside and grossularite, occur sporadically throughout the section, but only locally constitute more than 15% of the sequence.

  • Scarborough Beach Scarborough Higgins Beach Scarborough
    Higgins Beach Scarborough Beach Scarborough Scarborough The variations in the profiles along Higgins Beach may relate to the three different beach types found at each of the profile locations. HI1 is located at the base of a large rip-rap seawall; this wall is “active” at high stages of the tide – that is, tidal water and wave activity is in contact with the seawall. This is reflected in the less berm development and general low variability of the mean profiles, especially as compared with HI2. HI2, though it starts at a seawall, is located at a portion of the beach that has more sediment, and undergoes more seasonal changes, and is not active during high tide phases. HI3 is heavily influenced by the spit end of Higgins Beach, which terminates at the Spurwink River ebb-tidal delta; this area undergoes large changes At SC2 annual variability is greater than at SC1. From Seasonal variability at SC2 shows the expected due to sediment movement and availability 1999 to 2000 and 2005 to 2006 about 1 meter of influence of the summer berm on the upper profile with at the spit and ebb-tidal delta. sediment was lost and the dune appears to have greater variability than in winter. The outer profile has receded. From 2006 to 2007 the mean profile lowered greater winter variability consistent with seasonal about a meter - some of which may be due to the 2007 sandbar migration. Patriots’ Day Storm. Data at Scarborough Beach indicate that the beach undergoes typical seasonal changes and that the beach is generally stable.

MBI conducted the majority of this work as a grantee or contractor to U.S. EPA and the project was covered by 5-year ITPs issued under Section 7 of the ESA since 2010, the most recent of which expired in 2019. The respective Biological Opinions included annual take limits for Atlantic Sturgeon, Shortnose Sturgeon, and Atlantic Salmon and Terms and Conditions based on Reasonable and Prudent Measures for minimizing harm to individual fish and for reporting any incidental takes to NOAA. The history of incidental takes are included with the descriptions of each of the three ESA listed fish species that are known to occur in the Lower Kennebec River system. IV. Species descriptions: Three ESA listed fish species occur in an approximate 17.5 mile reach of the Lower Kennebec River between the Lockwood Dam and Hydropower Project (operated by Brookfield Inc.) in Waterville, ME to the former Edwards Dam site in Augusta, ME and a 3.5 mile reach of the Lower Sebasticook River downstream from the Benton Falls Dam and Hydropower Project (owned by Benton Falls Associates) to its confluence with the Kennebec River in Winslow, ME.

    irds find Maine attractive for many of the same reasons we do—the state offers a unique blend of landscapes spanning from mountains to the sea, with forests, grasslands, rivers, marshes, and long coastlines in between. B Where we find beautiful places to hike and kayak, camp and relax, birds find the habitat they need for their survival. But while Maine’s diverse habitats serve an important role for over IBAs 400 bird species—some threatened, endangered, or of regional conservation in concern—the state’s not immune to a growing list of threats that puts these birds at further risk. Habitat loss, degradation, and fragmentation due to development, toxins such as mercury and lead, oil spills on the coast and Maine inland waters, and climate change are top among them. BY ANDREW COLVIN In the face of these threats, a crucial step in conserving Maine’s birds is to identify the areas of the state that are most important for breeding, wintering, and migration. After several years of working toward that goal, Maine Audubon Lists Maine Audubon has recently completed the first phase of its Important 22 of the Most Important Bird Areas (IBA) program, identifying 22 areas across Maine that are vital Places in Maine for Vulnerable Birds to state—and even global—bird populations. HANS TOOM ERIC HYNES Eight of the rare birds used to identify IBAs in Maine (clockwise from left): Short-eared owl, black-throated blue warbler, least tern, common moorhen, scarlet tanager, harlequin duck, saltmarsh sharp-tailed sparrow, and razorbill.

  • POLICY of MAINE, 1620-1820 by MARGARET FOWLES WILDE a THESIS Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree
    HISTORY OF THE PUBLIC LAND POLICY OF MAINE, 1620-1820 By MARGARET FOWLES WILDE % A., University of Maine, 1932 A THESIS Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts (in History and Government) Division of Graduate Study University of Maine Orono May, 1940 ABSTRACT HISTORY OF THE PUBLIC LAND POLICY OF MAINE, 1620-1820 There have been many accounts of individual settlements in Maine and a few histories of the State, but no one has ever attempted a history of its land policy or analyzed the effect that such a policy or lack of policy might have had on the development of the State of Maine. Maine was one of the earliest sections of the Atlantic Coast 'to be explored but one of the slowest in development. The latter may have been due to a number of factors but undoubtedly the lack of a definite, well developed land policy had much to do with the slow progress of settlement and development of this area. The years 1602 to 1620 marked the beginnings of explorations along the Maine Coast principally by the English and French. In 1603, Henry IV of France granted all the American territory between the fortieth and forty-six degrees north latitude to Pierre de Gast Sieure de Monts. This territory was called Acadia. Soon after, in 1606 King James I of England granted all the lands between the thirty-fourth and forty-fifth degrees north latitude to an association of noblemen of London and Plymouth. Later, King James I of England granted all the lands from the fortieth to the forty-eighth degrees of north latitude to a company called ’’Council established at Plymouth in the County of Devon; for planting, ruling, and governing New England in America.” This company functioned from 1620-1635.
