    FALL 2012/ Winter 2013 THE NEWSLETTER OF MAINE RIVERS ST. CROIX RIVER UPDATE Joint Tribal Council of the Passamaquoddy Tribe passes St. Croix River Alewife Resolution Citing the vital linkages that sea-run alewives create in the food chain of the St. Croix River, Passamaquoddy Bay and the Bay of Fundy, members of the Joint Tribal Council of the Passamaquoddy Tribe voted unanimously to pass a resolution that calls for reopening the St. Croix Rivers for alewives. !e resolution states that sea-run alewife are a vital link in the food chain of the St. Croix River that sustained the Passamaquoddy for thousands of years, “without which we may not have survived.” !e Joint Tribal Council resolution supports the June 14, 2012 Passamaquoddy Chief’s Declaration of a State of Emergency within the St. Croix River, and calls for overturning Maine’s 1995 law that blocks alewives from the St. Croix. In early June 2012 members of the Schoodic Riverkeepers advanced the Passamaquoddy river restoration e"ort with a 100-mile sacred run up the St. Croix River, a run that mirrored the annual trek of native alewives. !e route extended from Pleasant Point, near Eastport, to Mud Lake Stream, a 4,000-year-old ancestral #shing site for the Passamaquoddy at the head of Spednic Lake. Maine Rivers has been working for nearly a decade on advocacy e"orts to reopen the St. Croix River and applauds this recent decision of the Joint Tribal Council.

Kennebunk, Maine HISTORY by Joyce Butler, Town Historian 1996 The name Kennebunk means "long cut bank," probably in reference to Great Hill at the mouth of the Mousam River, which would have been an important landmark to native Americans coming along the coast in their ocean-going canoes.1 The first Europeans to visit the shores of southern Maine probably were sixteenth-century fishermen. Although it is well known that these fishing parties put ashore along the coast of Maine, whether any landed on Kennebunk's beaches is not part of the present historical record. At that time the native population followed a pattern of seasonal migration, living near the coast during the warmer months of the year, moving inland during the colder months. The presence of native Americans in Kennebunk was even then an ancient tradition. Because of recent archaeological excavations it is known that 11,000 years ago PaleoIndian hunters traveled seasonally to the Kennebunk Plains from throughout the Northeast to trap and kill bison and caribou.

  • Morphodynamics of Tidal Inlet Systems in Maine
    Maine Geological Survey Studies in Maine Geology: Volume 5 1989 Morphodynamics of Tidal Inlet Systems in Maine 1 2 Duncan M. FitzGeraui, Jonathan M. Lincoln • 3 1 L. Kenneth Fink, Jr. , and Dabney W. Caldwel/ 1Departm ent of Geology Boston University Boston, Massachusetts 02215 2Department of Geological Sciencies Northwestern University Evanston, Illinois 60201 3Department of Geology University of Maine Orono, Maine 04469 ABSTRACT The occurrence of tidal inlets along the coast of Maine is tied closely to the structural geology and glacial history of this region. Most of the inlets are found along the southern arcuate-embayment shoreline where sand sources, consisting of glaciomarine sediments and other glacial deposits, were sufficient to build swash-aligned barriers between pronounced bedrock headlands. Along the peninsula coast of Maine, tidal inlets also occur at the mouths of the Kennebec and Sheepscot Rivers where large quantities of glaciofluvial sands were deposited during deglacia­ tion. The remainder of the southeastward facing coast was stripped of its preglacial sediment cover by the southerly moving glaciers. The thin tills that were left behind yield little sand and, thus, barriers and inlets are generally absent. Small to large-sized inlets (width= 50-200 m) in Maine are anchored next to bedrock outcrops and are bordered on their opposite sides by sandy spits. Despite the ubiquitous name "river inlet," they normally have little fresh water discharge compared to their salt water tidal prisms. The backbarriers of these inlets are expansive and would produce relatively large tidal prisms if high Spartina marshes had not filled most of the region, leaving little open water area.
