Otherwise, first call Central Maine Power 1-800-696-1000 or go to CMP’s outage webpage on your smart phone. If the outage is general in the region, CMP will describe it in their outgoing phone message. Stay on CMP’s line to report your individual outage using the cottage phone number. If you are staying on Frye Island, call the town office 655-4551 first, to ascertain if the outage is general or not. Cordless phones and cable phones at the cottage will not work when the power is out, but a phone that is connected directly to a line jack should work in most situations. Do not run tap water or flush the toilets during a power outage, especially if household water comes from the lake – that could make the pump lose its prime, requiring a service call. If the outage is long, remember you can flush toilets by filling the tank with lake water or pouring water into the toilet bowl from a height. A bucket should be available at your cottage. If an outage is predicted, it’s advisable to fill the bathtub or buckets as a precaution. Vol. 40 - 7.20.16 Copyright © 2016 by Margaret Krainin and Krainin Real Estate, Inc.

Altercations with skunks, porcupines, neighbors’ dogs or their owners will not make fond memories of your Maine vacation! Please do not let your dog run loose. Animal Control Officers Rabies is still an issue in Maine. Please be very careful. If you see a domestic animal acting strangely, please report it to the Animal Control Officer listed below. For wild animals, call the Game Warden (1-800-482-0730). Do not attempt to capture these animals by yourself. Town !! Officer!! ! !Phone Bridgton!! Kathleen Quinan!!! 647-8814 Casco!!

Read the Arrival information we gave you. The Arrival page contains trash instructions and other important cottage information. Is the cottage clean? If the cottage has not been adequately cleaned, call us immediately, so we can send cleaners who are still available on Saturday. Please don’t clean it yourself – you’re on vacation! Are there any obvious damage or maintenance issues? If so, please report them to us asap. Even if it is not a big problem for you at this time, tell us anyway – because some situations get worse if not addressed immediately, and the next guests may be more inconvenienced than yourselves. If a problem develops during your stay, please let us know immediately. If you call when you first become aware of it, we will be better able to address it for you. Problems are harder to solve after 5 pm, and especially between 10 am and 3 pm on Saturday! Review the property and waterfront boundaries with children and pets. Check the propane tanks for the grill. If they are empty or feel light (splash hot water on them and look for frost line), call us right away, so we can help you find the extra tanks or get replacements. If you arrive with a large quantity of groceries, leave non-perishables out of the fridge at first, to give it time to recover. If the fridge seems to be struggling to hold temperature, turn the dial lower, not higher. Soon after you arrive, be sure to familiarize yourself with the Emergency Information on the inside front cover of this book. Local towns have mostly volunteer Fire and Rescue squads. They respond quickly and effectively to fires and medical emergencies. Please look after the property as much as possible during your stay. Don’t park on the lawn – it makes ruts, and could damage the septic system. Close the windows, doors and deck umbrella if you are going away for the day. Turn off the heat when you are not using it. Turn off the outside floodlights, etc., during the day. Put boats away if the lake gets rough. And if the cottage phone rings, please answer it – the call may be for you! If there is anything we can do to make your stay more enjoyable, please let us know! Lew and Maggie Krainin 5 How to Report a Problem Non-Emergencies: Call Krainin Raymond office. Hours: Mon - Sat 9-5; Sun 10-4. From Raymond, Naples, Casco, Poland, Bridgton, Sebago, Gray or Windham, phone is local – dial 655-3811. If you’re in another town, dial 1-800-639-2321. EMERGENCIES: (1) For life-threatening emergencies, call 911 first, then call the Krainin office as soon as possible. (2) For maintenance or personal emergencies, call Krainin first: During office hours: Dial 655-3811 or 1-800-639-2321, same numbers as for non-emergencies, above.

  • Geologic Site of the Month: Why Is Sebago Lake So Deep?
    Why is Sebago Lake so deep? Maine Geological Survey Maine Geologic Facts and Localities February, 1999 Why is Sebago Lake so deep? 43° 51‘ 13.36“ N, 70° 33‘ 43.98“ W Text by Robert A. Johnston Maine Geological Survey, Department of Agriculture, Conservation & Forestry 1 Why is Sebago Lake so deep? Maine Geological Survey Introduction Modern geophysical equipment allows geologists to investigate previously unmapped environments, including ocean and lake floors. Recent geophysical research studied the types, composition, areal extent, and thickness of sediments on the bottom of Sebago Lake in southwestern Maine. Geologists used side- scan sonar and seismic reflection profiling to map the bottom of the lake. Approximately 58 percent of the lake bottom was imaged with side-scan sonar and over 60 miles of seismic reflection profiles were collected. This web site will discuss the findings of the seismic reflection profiling. Maine Geological Survey, Department of Agriculture, Conservation & Forestry 2 Why is Sebago Lake so deep? Maine Geological Survey Physiographic setting Sebago Lake, although second in surface area to Moosehead Lake, is Maine's deepest lake. With a water depth of 316 feet, its deepest part is 49 feet below sea level! Sebago Lake is located in southwestern Maine 20 miles northwest of Portland and 50 miles southeast of the White Mountains. It lies along the transition between the Central Highlands and the Coastal Lowlands physiographic regions of New England (Figure 1). The abrupt change in landscape can be seen in panoramic views from several vantage points near Sebago Lake. Denny, 1982 Denny, Maine Geological Survey From From Figure 1.

  • Maine Lakes Report 2012
    Maine Lakes Report 2012 Dear Friends of Maine Lakes, This report on the health of Maine lakes reflects the effort of more than 1,000 volunteer citizen scientists who monitored several hundred lake basins throughout the State in 2012. Many of them have been doing so continuously for decades, and a few have been involved for most of the 42 years since the Maine Legislature officially authorized volunteer lake monitoring. Their work is a strong testimony to the level of public commitment in Maine to our clear, clean lakes, and it is probably not coincidental that our lakes have remained as healthy as they have under the watch of these individuals. The Maine Volunteer Lake Monitoring Program (VLMP) is believed to be the longest-standing statewide citizen lake monitoring program in America, having been formed at about the time of the passage of the historic Federal Clean Water Act. The Mission of the Maine Volunteer Lake Monitoring Program is to help protect Maine lakes through widespread citizen participation in the gathering and dissemination of credible scientific information pertaining to lake health. The VLMP trains, certifies and provides technical support to hundreds of volunteers who monitor a wide range of indicators of water quality, assess watershed health and function, and screen lakes for invasive aquatic plants and animals. In addition to being the primary source of lake data in the State of Maine, VLMP volunteers benefit their local lakes by playing key stewardship and leadership roles in their communities. Our primary partners are the Maine Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) and the US Environmental Protection Agency, which provide a wide range of financial, technical and management support to the program.

All inland waters of the state are closed to ice fishing except those which have been opened to fishing through the ice by rule and regulation of the commissioner. A person legally licensed may fish through the ice in the daytime with not more than 5 lines, set or otherwise, which shall be under the immediate supervision of such person, in any waters which have been opened to ice fishing by the commissioner. It shall be lawful to fish in the nighttime by using not more than 5 lines set or otherwise for cusk in the waters which have been opened to ice fishing by the commissioner for salmon, trout and togue. The commissioner may open other waters for fishing for cusk in the night­ time. FISHING LICENSES No resident of the State over 18 years of age and no non-resident over the age of 10 years can lawfully fish through the ice in any inland waters of the State, or transport any fish taken therefrom without a fishing license.

Page 10 Winter 2016 Free LEA Lake News Success on the Songo River and Brandy Pond! By Christian Oren After eleven summers of hard work, LEA is declaring victory in the battle against milfoil in the Songo River and Brandy Pond. When the project was first begun, huge patches of milfoil as big as football fields choked the entire length of the Songo. Now, boaters can pass through the river without ever seeing a single stalck of the plant. Never before has such a large and extensive invasive aquatic plant infestation been brought under control in the history of the State of Maine. The dozen or so infestations in Brandy Pond were also persistent, but seem to have been quelled by years of repeated harvesting. We declared victory on the Songo for two main reasons. First, the density of milfoil on the entire length of the river was much lower than we had seen in previous years. Even at the height of the growing season, there was only one plant for every 100 feet of shoreline, or less.

  • Gloeotrichia Echinulata Monitoring Report
    2014 Gloeotrichia echinulata Monitoring Report January 13, 2015 Lakes Environmental Association 230 Main Street Bridgton, ME 04009 207-647-8580 [email protected] Project Summary A total of 24 lakes and ponds were monitored in the summer of 2014 for the blue-green algae known as Gloeotrichia echinulata, or “Gloeo”. Eighteen were sampled once during peak growing season in late July or early August. The remaining six lakes were those with the high- est 2013 levels of the algae and were sampled every 2 weeks throughout the summer. These lakes were Long Lake, Keoka Lake, McWain Pond, Moose Pond, Peabody Pond, and Crystal Lake. The first three of these lakes had Gloeo levels increase by 3 – 12 times between 2013 and 2014. The highest level was 72.4 colonies per liter in Keoka Lake, contrasting with a high of 16.6 colonies per liter in Moose Pond in 2013. The other three lakes had similar Gloeo lev- els in 2013 and 2014. The peak in Gloeo population in most lakes came in early August, just after water temperatures had peaked for the season. Factors that Affect Gloeo Abundance Light Like many other species, Gloeo probably take biological cues from the intensity and duration of sunlight. Gloeo can only grow on sediments that are exposed to light. Lake bathymetry (bottom topography) will control the area of the lake that is shallow enough for light to reach (known as the “littoral zone”). Lake clarity and color also impact how deep light can penetrate. Low clarity and/or high color mean that less of the lake bottom is exposed to light.

  • Gloeotrichia Echinulata Monitoring Report
    2015 Gloeotrichia echinulata Monitoring Report February 1, 2016 Lakes Environmental Association 230 Main Street Bridgton, ME 04009 207-647-8580 [email protected] Project Summary A total of 30 sites on 24 lakes and ponds were monitored in the summer of 2015 for the blue-green algae known as Gloeotrichia echinulata, or “Gloeo”. Twenty sites were sampled once in late July or early August. The remaining ten sites were sampled 4 times, or roughly once per week, between July 15th and August 19th, with the exception of Moose Pond (main basin), which was sampled 5 times. The sites sam- pled more than once were on Long Lake (4 sites), Keoka Lake, McWain Pond, Moose Pond, Peabody Pond, Crystal Lake, and Middle Pond. The highest level of Gloeo recorded in 2015 was 192.4 colonies per liter in Moose Pond. The highest level in 2014 was 72.4 colonies per liter in Keoka Lake, and in 2013 it was 16.6 colonies per liter in Moose Pond. Moose Pond and the Harrison sample site on Long Lake’s north shore both saw large increases in Gloeo abundance in 2015 over previous years. However, the con- centrations at other sampling sites were similar or even less than in previous years. A late spring and slow warm-up in water temperatures may have affected Gloeo growth in 2015. Factors that Affect Gloeo Abundance Light Like many other species, Gloeo take biological cues from the intensity and duration of sun- light. Gloeo can only grow on sediments that are exposed to light. Lake bathymetry (the shape and contours of the lake bed) will control the area of the lake that is shallow enough for light to reach (known as the “littoral zone”).
