  • Cumulative Impacts to Environmental Conditions on the Presumpscot River and Its Shorelands
    Cumulative Impacts to Environmental Conditions on the Presumpscot River and its Shorelands (DRAFT -- As distributed at the June 2002 Public Meetings) Title Page pictures Deleted due to large memory size. See separate file Prepared by the Presumpscot River Plan Steering Committee With Technical Assistance Provided by Land and Water Associates Hallowell, Maine And Funding and Assistance Provided by Casco Bay Estuary Project June 11, 2002 ADDENDUM April 18, 2003 Note on the Scope of Analysis for this Cumulative Impacts Report: The geographic scope of this analysis of cumulative impacts is the Presumpscot River from its outlet at Sebago Lake, including its tributaries and adjacent corridor lands, to and including the Casco Bay Estuary. This report addresses the impacts of the regulation of flows out of Sebago Lake at the Eel Weir Dam on the river and Casco Bay Estuary, since the flow regime on the river is almost entirely controlled by management of the Eel Weir Dam, and the Presumpscot River is the largest source of freshwater to Casco Bay. However, it does not include or address issues related to Sebago Lake levels. Comments received at the June 2002 public information meetings raised concerns about the impacts of flow regulation at the Eel Weir Dam on Sebago lake shorelands and wetlands. While it is acknowledged that the regulation of flows at the Eel Weir Dam has impacts not only on the river and estuary but also on Sebago Lake, these impacts are not addressed in this report, and there are no recommendations included in the report to change operations at the Eel Weir Dam.

  • Du Pont Company Expansion Beyond the Bankso F the Brandywine 1859 - 1934
    A CHART OF Du Pont Company Expansion Beyond the Banks Of THe BRAnDYWIne 1859 - 1934 Sally Giaartler Harris August 31* I960 Raglay Htiseuia This chart of Du Pont Company expansion beyond the banks of the Brandywine has bean coiapiled in preparation for the Hagley Museum* a second floor exhibit which will introduce the trend toward "bigness" throughout American industry. The second floor exhibit is designed to continue the story of American industrial progress told through the first floor exhibits, but the frame of reference on the second floor shifts from the Brandywine Valley to the nation. As a growing population moved westward to create new states in the wilderness, the old patterns of industry which prevailed along the eastern sdll streams during the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries gave way to a dynamic envelopment, lew sources of power, new products, technological improvements, larger industrial units, new forms of organisation, and a revolution in transportation and eosBsuni- cation were the characteristics of a new America. This paper attempts to trace tha major acquisitions of the Du Pont Company in this era of expansion and progress, and thus show how it grew to meet new demands and to supply new markets.

    The WiZard’s Great Book of Absoundite and Forbidden Pyrotechnic Knowledge. I Black Power Potassium Nitrate Charcoal Black Powder Blasting FORCE OF GUNPOWDER. Although theory is not capable of estimating the force, or what is the same thing, the quantity of powder necessary to produce a certain effect, long experience has established the relative quantities of powder which are necessary under different circumstances, with sufficient accuracy for all practical purposes. These different circumstances are always of the same kind with reference to the artillery, where the range is the only thing that varies; whilst in blasting they are very various, loose earth has frequently to be blown up and at other times, solid rock; sometimes, the object is to destroy and hurl the fragments to a distance, and at others to get rid of them in a manner as little dangerous as possible, as for instance, in cases of civil engineering. For the latter purposes, the use of powder has very much increased since the introduction of railroads has given. occasion to so many excavations, and since the use of the galvanic battery in igniting the charge, has rendered the operation so free from all danger and removed all chance of failure from the modes, of blasting under water. A few examples will serve to illustrate the magnitude of such operations, and bear witness to the successful result of* the undertakings. The line of railroad coming from Folkestone, after passing several viaducts, tunnels, and cuttings, traverses the Abbot's Rock Tunnel. To reach from thence Shakespeare's Cliff (near Dover) in a direct line, the projecting rock at Round Down, an immense mass of chalk, which exactly intercepted the line, had to be removed.

(NE ARC) completed an Archaeological Phase 0 Study and Architectural Assessment of the Keddy Mill Superfund Site located in Windham, Cumberland County, Maine on behalf of Nobis Engineering, Inc. Nobis is under contract with the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Contract EP-S1-06-03, to perform a remedial investigation at the Keddy Mill Superfund Site. The Keddy Mill Superfund Site is located in the Town of Windham, Maine adjacent to the east bank of the Presumpscot River, and includes an area measuring a 6.93-acre in size. The Keddy Mill site has a long history, starting with a saw mill in the 18th century followed by a series of industries related to the wood and paper industry throughout the nineteenth and into the twentieth century. Its designation as a Superfund Site is a result of the last use of the facility as a metal manufacturing operation which had ceased by the mid-20th century.

LocKwooo, HANNIBAL HAMLYN: Gentlemen :-The material represented in the Compendfium of Statistics hereinafter following, has been collected by means of a series of circulars and by letters addressed to the municipal offi­ cers of cities, towns and plantations, to the proprietors of water­ power and the agents of water-power companies. Returns have been secured from 371 municipalities out of 425 to which commu­ nications were addressed. Nine townships also have volunteered information respecting their water-power, a fact worthy of notice since no circulars were issued to unincorporated places. The number of water-powers embodied is 1,955. A,s to the amount of working energy which these possess, it is of course impossible at this stage of our undertaking to form any other than a very rude estimate. It can hardly be questioned, however, that in the present undeveloped state of their reservoirs, natural and artificial, they will sum 300,000 net horse-powers.

  • Thesis Reference
    Thesis When Du Pont went global: how the Du Pont family built a multinational empire (1910-1967) LOMBARDI GAUTHIER, Liza Abstract La thèse se concentre sur les mécanismes de multinationalisation de l'entreprise américaine Du Pont de Nemours, entre 1910 et 1967. Fondé en 1802 par la famille éponyme, ce producteur de poudres explosives s'est développé et a diversifié ses activités aux Etats-Unis au cours du XIXème siècle, et ce jusqu'à devenir l'un des principaux groupes chimiques américains. Durant le XXème siècle, la Du Pont s'érige comme un compétiteur international en développant ses affaires en Europe, en Asie, et rapidement d'une manière globale sur tous les continents. Partant de cette histoire, la thèse cherche à comprendre quelles ont été les motivations de la famille à agrandir de telles manières ses activités, et comment l'entreprise familiale a survécu à cette internationalisation. Ces questions sont développées au regard des relations politiques et économiques américaines, aussi bien qu'internationales, et en comparaison avec le développement multinational d'entreprises contemporaines à la Du Pont.
