  • The Dirty History of Portland Harbor
    Reprinted from a 1994 publication The Dirty History of Portland Harbor hen scientists began looking closely at the sediments and at W the bottom of Casco Bay beginning in the early 1980s, they confronted a pollution puzzle. Sediments taken from various locations throughout the Bay, and especially in Portland Harbor, held a wide variety of potentially toxic chemicals. Until we know more about how these heavy metals, pesticides and other compounds affect marine life, it’s hard to know what lasting impact the pollution in Casco Bay may have. But it was decided that the more we know about where those pollutants came from, the better chances we will have in preventing future problems. The Casco Bay Estuary Project (now Casco Bay Early industry was limited by natural energy sources, like this tidal mill at Estuary Partnership) commissioned environmental Stroudwater. (courtesy: Sullivan Train & Photo) historian Edward Hawes to do some detective work, hoping that he could turn up some puzzle pieces from the Casco Bay. Lead, cadmium and mercury concentrations were watersheds that feed the Bay. The industrial legacy he found comparatively high in Back Cove, as were lead and mercury was a surprise to almost anyone who thinks they know the in the inner Fore River. Lead was also relatively high in the Portland area. Presumpscot River estuary. Additional metals — nickel, silver, arsenic, chromium A Pollution Problem and zinc — were evident in lesser concentrations. This widespread contamination was a little mystifying. In this age hen investigators began sampling Casco Bay’s of environmental regulation, how could so much pollution sediments in the 1980s, levels of pollution have landed in the Bay?

  • Forest Avenue and Stevens Avenue Portland, Maine Historic Context
    Forest Avenue and Stevens Avenue Portland, Maine Historic Context Scott T. Hanson Sutherland Conservation & Consulting August 2015 General context Development of Colonial Falmouth European settlement of the area that became the city of Portland, Maine, began with English settlers establishing homes on the islands of Casco Bay and on the peninsula known as Casco Neck in the early seventeenth century. As in much of Maine, early settlers were attracted by abundant natural resources, specifically fish and trees. Also like other early settlement efforts, those at Casco Bay and Casco Neck were tenuous and fitful, as British and French conflicts in Europe extended across the Atlantic to New England and both the French and their Native American allies frequently sought to limit British territorial claims in the lands between Massachusetts and Canada. Permanent settlement did not come to the area until the early eighteenth century and complete security against attacks from French and Native forces did not come until the fall of Quebec to the British in 1759. Until this historic event opened the interior to settlement in a significant way, the town on Casco Neck, named Falmouth, was primarily focused on the sea with minimal contact with the interior. Falmouth developed as a compact village in the vicinity of present day India Street. As it expanded, it grew primar- ily to the west along what would become Fore, Middle, and Congress streets. A second village developed at Stroudwater, several miles up the Fore River. Roads to the interior were limited and used primarily to move logs to the coast for sawing or use as ship’s masts.
