INTRODUCTION Black flies have been long-time residents of Maine and cause exten­ sive nuisance problems for people, domestic animals, and wildlife. The black fly problem has no simple solution because of the multitude of species present, the diverse and ecologically sensitive habitats in which they are found, and the problems inherent in measuring the extent of the damage they cause.

  • Historical Trend in Ice Thickness on the Piscataquis River in Central Maine
    59th EASTERN SNOW CONFERENCE Stowe, Vermont USA 2002 Historical Trend in Ice Thickness on the Piscataquis River in Central Maine T.G. HUNTINGTON1, G.A. HODGKINS1, AND R.W. DUDLEY,1 ABSTRACT We analyzed a long-term record of ice thickness on the Piscataquis River in central Maine to determine whether there were temporal trends that were associated with climate warming. Trends in ice thickness were compared and correlated with regional time series of winter air temperature, heating degree days (HDD) , date of river ice-out, seasonal center-of-volume date (SCVD) (date on which half of the stream runoff volume during the period 1 Jan and 31 May has occurred), water temperature, and lake ice-out date. All of these variables except lake ice-out date showed significant temporal trends during the 20th century. Average ice thickness around 28 Feb. decreased by about 23 cm from 1912 to 2001. Over the period 1900 to 1999, winter air temperature increased by 1.7 ˚C and HDD decreased by about 7.5%. Final ice-out date on the Piscataquis River occurred earlier (advanced), by 0.23 days yr–1 over the period 1931 to 2002. The SCVD advanced by 0.11 days yr–1 over the period 1903 to 2001. Ice thickness was significantly correlated with winter air temperature, HDD, river ice-out, and SCVD (P-value < 0.01). These systematic temporal trends in multiple hydrologic indicator variables indicate a coherent response to climate forcing. Keywords: climate change, hydrologic indicators, river ice thickness INTRODUCTION Hydrologic variables that are sensitive to incremental changes in temperature regime can serve as indicators of systematic changes in climate, providing evidence for physical responses to these changes in spite of large interannual variability.

  • Stillwater Recertification Attachments 2015
    Stillwater Hydroelectric Project (FERC No. 2712) Project Description Black Bear Hydro Partners, LLC’s Stillwater Hydroelectric Project is a run-of-river hydroelectric generating facility located on the Stillwater Branch of the Penobscot River in Old Town, Maine with a gross nameplate generating capacity of 4.18 MW. The Stillwater Project Powerhouse A commenced initial commercial operations in 1913. The Licensee applied for an amendment to increase capacity at the Stillwater Project via the construction of an additional powerhouse (Powerhouse B). The Project consists of an existing 1,720-foot-long dam consisting of 13 sections of various height, creating an impoundment with a normal full pond elevation of 94.65 feet National Geodetic Vertical Datum. The Project has two powerhouses. Powerhouse A consists of four generating units a total installed capacity of 1,950 kW and a maximum hydraulic capacity of 1,700 cfs. Powerhouse B consists of three generating units with a total installed capacity of 2,229 kW and a maximum hydraulic capacity of 1,758 cfs. Powerhouse A has 50 ft long aerial transmission lines installed from the powerhouse’s GSU to the existing substation. Powerhouse B has 300 ft long aerial transmission lines installed from the powerhouse’s generating step-up unit (GSU) to the existing, adjacent 12.5 kV distribution system located adjacent to the existing project boundary and along the south side of Stillwater Avenue. The Stillwater Powerhouse B commenced initial commercial operation September, 2013. The Stillwater Project generates clean, renewable electricity while providing recreational opportunities (portage trail, parking areas for river access and hand-carried boat launch), fish passage measures, consistent water levels that enhance habitats for waterfowl, etc., and substantial support of the local community through stable property tax payments, reliable voltage support of the electrical distribution system, etc.

  • Water Quality Summary for Kenduskeag Stream and Upper Watershed Tributaries
    Water Quality Summary for Kenduskeag Stream and Upper Watershed Tributaries By Mark Whiting, Maine Department of Environmental Protection In Collaboration with Ed Lindsey Old Town High School (formerly of Central High School) March 24, 2006 DEPLW0762 Water quality summary for Kenduskeag Stream and upper watershed tributaries By Mark Whiting, Maine DEP, March 2006 Introduction: General Watershed Characteristics: Kenduskeag Stream is the largest tributary to the Penobscot River located below the first dam at Veazie. For this reason, Kenduskeag Stream has been of interest in Maine’s salmon recovery program. The Penobscot River is the largest salmon river in Maine and it has most of the remaining Atlantic salmon (ASC 2004). However a string of dams restricts fish access to the upper river. Salmon have been maintained by fish ladders, natural reproduction in the mainstem and lower tributaries, and fish stocking by Penobscot-specific strains of salmon. Fortunately, an agreement with the dam owners, federal and state agencies, the Penobscot Indian Nation, and other private organizations will provide for the removal of the two lower dams (Veazie and Great Works), a natural looking bypass channel at another dam (Howland), and improved fish passage at four additional dams. This will improve access to over 500 river miles of fish habitat. For details on the Penobscot River recovery plan see the Penobscot River Restoration Trust website (http://penobscotriver.org/index.html). Kenduskeag Stream is 36 miles long and has a watershed of 215 square miles. The mainstem has 12 named tributaries with subwatersheds that range in size from 3-26 square miles. French Stream, Black Stream and Crooked Brook are the largest tributaries with 26.3, 26.0 and 19.2 square miles respectively (Penobscot County Soil and Water Conservation District watershed plan, 1988).
