    PENOBSCOTBAY Maine National Estuary Program Nomination STATE OF MAINE OFFICEOF THE GOVERNOR AUGUSTA. MAINE 04333 ANGUS S. KING, JR. GOVERNOR March 6, 1995 Administrator Carol Browner US. Environmental Protection Agency 401 M. Street, S.W. Washington, D.C. 20460 Dear Ms. Browner: 1 am pleased to submit a State of Maine Conference Agreement that nominates Penobscot Bay for designation in the National Estuary Program. The Agreement describes the Bay's key issues and actions to respond to them, how we will continue to involve the public in developing and implementing solutions to these most pressing issues, and how we propose to finance this estuary project. Our nomination for Penobscot Bay is consistent with EPA's December; 1994 guidance that calls for considerable initiative by a state before requesting designation. Public and private entities have worked cooperatively since 1992 and made remarkable progress. Two major conferences have brought together all levels of government, the nonprofit community, Bay businesses and the public to talk openly about key issues and possible solutions. These and other activities described in the attached document have laid a solid foundation for a successful national estuaq project. I believe our estuary project will be successfully implemented because of the active participation of five state agencies over the past three years. These agencies (the Departments of Environmental Protection, Marine Resources, Inland Fisheries and Wildlife. Economic and Community Developmenf and the State Planning Office) are committed to this project and I am confident that in concert with our nonprofit, municipal and business partners we will m&e important strides to protect and restore Penobscot Bay.

Die faszinierende Pracht der freien Natur in Maine ist inspirierend und treibt uns an, das Leben jeden Tag in vollen Zügen zu genießen. Wachen Sie an der Küste auf, erklimmen Sie am Nachmittag einen Berg, und lassen Sie den Tag in einer Hütte tief versteckt im Wald ausklingen. Bei einer Landschaft, die so vielfältig wie hier ist, kommt keine Langeweile auf, und grenzenlose Möglichkeiten sind die Norm. FAKTEN AUF EINEN BLICK Maine ist der erste US-Bundesstaat, der jeden Morgen den Sonnenaufgang erlebt. Kein Wunder, dass sich bei uns alles um die freie Natur dreht. Maine hat ca. 5600 km Küstenlinie. Das entspricht der gesamten Strecke quer durch die USA und die Hälfte des Weges zurück. Der Elch ist das Tier des Bundesstaates Maine. Tatsächlich haben wir mehr Elche pro Quadratkilometer als jeder andere Staat. Sie fi schen und angeln gern? Sie fahren gern Kanu? Maine verfügt über ca. 51.500 km Flüsse und Ströme sowie mehr als 6000 Seen. Der Acadia National Park vermeldet die zweithöchsten Besucherzahlen aller Nationalparks in den USA. Ihre Chancen, einen Campingplatz zu fi nden, stehen ziemlich gut: State- und Nationalparks erstrecken sich hier über eine Fläche von 2196 Quadratkilometern.
