    THE INAUGURATION OF CLAYTON S. ROSE Fifteenth President of Bowdoin College Saturday, October 17, 2015 10:30 a.m. Farley Field House Bowdoin College Brunswick, Maine Bricks The pattern of brick used in these materials is derived from the brick of the terrace of the Walker Art Building, which houses the Bowdoin College Museum of Art. The Walker Art Building is an anchor of Bowdoin’s historic Quad, and it is a true architectural beauty. It is also a place full of life—on warm days, the terrace is the first place you will see students and others enjoying the sunshine—and it is standing on this brick that students both begin and end their time at Bowdoin. At the end of their orientation to the College, the incoming class gathers on the terrace for their first photo as a class, and at Commencement they walk across the terrace to shake the hand of Bowdoin’s president and receive their diplomas.

Transitioning MSSF to a virtual fair has been possible only with the perseverance of hundreds of people: students, teachers, judges, and the dedicated staff of Maine Mathematics & Science Alliance and The Jackson Laboratory. We thank everyone who’s come together to make it possible.

The Maine State Science Fair is affiliated with the Regeneron International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF). Society for Science & the Public has canceled the event this year due to concerns about COVID-19. Awards for the 2020 Maine State Science Fair include: 3 Grand Prize Awards • In lieu of a trip to present at Regeneron ISEF, the top three projects at MSSF will be awarded with $500 prizes.

  • Verona Island, Maine Comprehensive Plan 2006
    VERONA ISLAND, MAINE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN 2006 Prepared by the Verona Island Comprehensive Plan Committee VERONA ISLAND - MAINE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN 2006 Verona Island shall encourage both orderly residential and business growth and development while protecting the town’s rural character, preventing sprawl, protecting the quantity and quality of the town’s water resources and encouraging the preservation of large tracts of land for other locally appropriate and sustainable uses. Prepared by the Verona Island Comprehensive Plan Committee: Lionel Harvey Marlene Smith Linwood Bridges Paul Hansen Gary Haslam Wendy Carpenter Marilyn Baggett David Harrison Ed Petravicz Cleo Cottrell Lisa Bridges Dotty Seekins Jose Donnel Ann Ramsdell With assistance from the Hancock County Planning Commission 395 State Street Ellsworth, ME 04605 207-667-7131 207-667-2099 (fax) www.hcpcme.org INTRODUCTION The Verona Island comprehensive plan is an advisory document that reflects desired growth patterns among town residents. Overall, it identifies current issues that the town is currently facing, or expects to face in the next 5-10 years. This plan is an update of the 1978 plan and replaces that document. The plan will only become valid upon adoption by town residents at a town meeting; contents will be the legal basis for any changes to land use ordinances, which must similarly be voted on at a town meeting. It is important to remember that a public hearing is required to take place before a town vote. Also, since conditions in the town are expected to change over time, the plan should be reviewed on a periodic basis and updated accordingly.

  • Katahdin Iron Works and Its Effect on the Water Quality of the West Branch of the Pleasant River
    Katahdin Iron Works and its Effect On the Water Quality of the West Branch of the Pleasant River Katahdin Iron Works Township (T6 R9 NWP) Piscataquis County, Maine, USA By Mark Whiting Maine Department of Environmental Protection Bangor Regional Office 106 Hogan Road, Suite 6 Bangor, Maine 04401 Ore Excavation Pit, Ore Mountain, Photo by Mark Whiting June 14, 2010 DEPLW-1172 I. Introduction and Background Information: The Pleasant River is a tributary to the Maine’s largest river, the Penobscot. The Penobscot River watershed has the vast majority of the federally-listed endangered Atlantic salmon in Maine, accounting for 95% of the adult returns. Furthermore, this watershed is likely to play an increasingly important role in the conservation of Maine Atlantic salmon. In 2004, an agreement was signed to restore 11 sea-run fish species on the Penobscot River, while at the same time preserving hydroelectric power capacity. The non-profit Penobscot River Restoration Trust was created to raise money and coordinate the activities of the restoration partners. These include the Penobscot Indian Nation, six environmental groups, the hydropower dam owner, and State and Federal agencies. The project involves the removal of the two lower dams on the river, Veazie and Great Works. The Milford dam will have improved fish passage and the Howland dam will be decommissioned and by-passed by a natural-looking river channel. To find out more about the restoration program visit the Penobscot River Restoration Trust website (http://www.penobscotriver.org/). The Piscataquis River is one of the major western tributaries to the Penobscot.

WALKER ON BEHALF OF MAINE INDEPENDENT COLLEGES ASSOCIATION BEFORE THE COMMITTEE ON TAXATION In opposition to LD 659, An Act To Ease The Property Tax Burden By Authorizing Municipalities To Require Payments In Lieu Of Taxes From Certain Exempt Organizations Joint Standing Committee on Taxation April 14, 2021 Senator Chipman, Representative Terry, and members of the Taxation Committee, my name is Daniel Walker, and I am an attorney with Preti Flaherty and I am here today on behalf of the Maine Independent Colleges Association (MICA) to testify in opposition to LD 659. MICA represents 11 private, nonprofit colleges and universities1 throughout Maine that serve over 25,000 students, over 7,000 of whom are from Maine. These institutions are located in municipalities of all sizes across the State, from Maine’s largest city to small tourist towns and farming communities. Collectively, the 11 institutions are an economic force and an integral part of Maine’s Higher Educational eco-system. While they share the attributes of being private and nonprofit, these institutions are highly diverse and serve very different aspects of the educational needs of Maine people. Together they: Employ over 6,000 Maine workers. Have a total payroll in excess of $340 million. Have direct expenditures of over $615 million. Have an estimated economic impact on Maine’s economy of over a billion dollars each year. Directly contribute close to $2M to municipalities. Value of community service is over $24 million.
