  • Geologic Map of the Portland [15-Minute] Quadrangle, Maine
    / Maine Geological Survey To Accompany Map GM-1. GEOLOGIC 11AP OF THE PORTLAND QUADRANGLE, !1aine by Arthur M. Hussey, II STRATIGRAPHY MERRIMACK GROUP. In Southwestern Maine the Merrimack Group consists of, in ascending stratigraphic order, the Kittery, Eliot, and Berwick Formations. The Formations are dominantly an assemblage of interbedded quartzo- f eldspathic schists or phyllites and calcareous metaquartzite and granu­ lite with minor metapelite and calcareous metapelite. In the Portland quadrangle the Group is represented by the Berwick and Windham Formations, the latter being a new stratigraphic name proposed here for the first time, and tentatively correlated with the Eliot Formation. These two formations crop out over much of the northwestern half of the quadrangle. Ben1ick Formation(DSb). The Berwick Formation has been mapped from the type locality in the Salmon Falls River in Berwick, Maine, northeast into the Portland Quadrangle. Katz (1917) proposed the name Berwick Gneiss for this formation, and because he felt these rocks were more metamorphosed than surrounding rocks, he regarded them to be of Precambrian age. Freedman (1950) renamed the unit the Berwick Formation because of variability of texture and structure of the rock and alternation of lithic types. He clearly pointed out the probable Paleozoic age of the unit. The principal part of the Formation (DSb) consists of thin-to medium­ bedded, occasionally massive, biotite quartzite and quartz-biotite schist containing variable amounts of plagioclase. Locally interbedded with these rock types is quartz-biotite-muscovite schist with very rare garnet and staurolite. Thin calc-silicate beds and pods up to 6" thick, containing hornblende, and occasionally diopside and grossularite, occur sporadically throughout the section, but only locally constitute more than 15% of the sequence.

Telehealth is ok for routine monitoring of conditions and can cut down on number of mainland visits but isn’t a replacement for emergency medicine. Technology can be cumbersome and less efficient especially for private practice or if end users don’t have comfort with technology. Biggest challenge for smallest islands, telemedicine is not always useful because mainland providers aren't always on board and generally, going to the mainland just feels more productive if a person is able to get on the boat. Generally, people need and want a face to face with a medical provider.

Because of its unique coastal bays and estuaries, the area has high ecological value making it one of the State’s Focus Areas of Statewide Ecological Significance.1 The Bay is known for some of the region’s most productive intertidal mud flats and large expanses of eelgrass meadows and saltmarsh (Maps 2 and 3).
