SAGA COMMUNICATIONS, INC. (Exact Name of Registrant As Specified in Its Charter)
2017 Annual Report 2017 Annual Letter To our fellow shareholders: Every now and then I am introduced to someone who knows, kind of, who I am and what I do and they instinctively ask, ‘‘How are things at Saga?’’ (they pronounce it ‘‘say-gah’’). I am polite and correct their pronunciation (‘‘sah-gah’’) as I am proud of the word and its history. This is usually followed by, ‘‘What is a ‘‘sah-gah?’’ My response is that there are several definitions — a common one from 1857 deems a ‘‘Saga’’ as ‘‘a long, convoluted story.’’ The second one that we prefer is ‘‘an ongoing adventure.’’ That’s what we are. Next they ask, ‘‘What do you do there?’’ (pause, pause). I, too, pause, as by saying my title doesn’t really tell what I do or what Saga does. In essence, I tell them that I am in charge of the wellness of the Company and overseer and polisher of the multiple brands of radio stations that we have. Then comes the question, ‘‘Radio stations are brands?’’ ‘‘Yes,’’ I respond. ‘‘A consistent allusion can become a brand. Each and every one of our radio stations has a created personality that requires ongoing care. That is one of the things that differentiates us from other radio companies.’’ We really care about the identity, ambiance, and mission of each and every station that belongs to Saga. We have radio stations that have been on the air for close to 100 years and we have radio stations that have been created just months ago. -
Comprehensive Plan Vol. 1, Part 4
Vol. I, 2009 Edgecomb Comprehensive Plan 24 PART 4 NATURAL RESOURCES CRITICAL NATURAL RESOURCES MAINE’S GROWTH MANAGEMENT GOAL To protect the state's other critical natural resources, including without limitation, wetlands, wildlife and fisheries habitat, sand dunes, shorelands, scenic vistas, and unique natural areas. TOWN VISION To protect Edgecomb’s critical natural resources within and surrounding Edgecomb’s privately- owned undeveloped and unfragmented lands; Edgecomb’s only great pond, Lily Pond; the town- owned Charles and Constance Schmid Land Preserve as well as Edgecomb’s tidal frontage and its scenic vistas. CITIZENS’ VIEW (SURVEY RESPONSE) ● 58%, or 205 respondents, choose to live in Edgecomb because of its proximity to water, clear skies and starry nights. ● 54%, or 177 respondents, enjoy the respect for privacy in Edgecomb. Unfragmented Parcels ● 71%, or 253 respondents, defined rural as (Source: Beginning with Habitat) “the bulk of our land remaining undeveloped, with large tracts of backland, fields and forests.” ● 28%, or 94 respondents, objected to forestry operations “in their back yard.” ● 54%, or 191 respondents, felt that nature preserves are an acceptable trade-off for lost tax revenue. CONDITIONS AND TRENDS The topography of the upper part of the peninsula comprising the Town of Edgecomb is typical of Maine coastline peninsulas. A gently rolling landscape of rocky, clay soil, remaining from land which was heavily wooded before clearing and settlement of the 18th century, is laid over a granite skeleton. A mixture of second and third growth woodland is broken by the pattern of open fields surviving from 18th and 19th century farms when agriculture and fishing were the major sources of livelihood for inhabitants. -

Eugene Shephard, P.E. Principal Project Manager Associate Engineer US District Court – District of Maine Alternatives Evaluation Report Penobscot River Phase III Engineering Study EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In January 2016, the United States District Court for the District of Maine (the Court) selected Amec Foster Wheeler Environment & Infrastructure, Inc. (Amec Foster Wheeler) to conduct the Penobscot River Phase III Engineering Study (Phase III Engineering Study), to identify and evaluate feasible, effective and cost-effective measures to remediate mercury in the Penobscot River Estuary (the Estuary). The geographic area to be addressed within the Phase III Engineering Study is described by the Court as “the region from the site of the former Veazie Dam south to Upper Penobscot Bay, including Mendall Marsh and the Orland River." Beginning in 1967, a chlor-alkali facility located in Orrington, Maine released mercury into the Estuary. Releases of mercury at overall declining concentrations continued throughout facility operation and ceased with facility closure in 2000. In 2002, the Court ordered an independent scientific study, the Penobscot River Mercury Study, to assess the spatial distribution and impact of mercury discharge in the Penobscot River. -
