PORTLAND WATER DISTRICT

Notice of Categorical Exclusion

The State of Maine, Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), has issued a categorical exclusion in compliance with Section 6 of “Rules Relating to Drinking Water State Revolving Loan Fund Chaper 2370,” on behalf of the Portland Water District in Portland, Maine. Issuance of the Categorical Exclusion is to exempt a proposed action from the formal environmental review requirements.

The proposed action is to purchase a parcel of land, known as Tiger Hill Forest, comprised of 1,417-acres located on Peaked Mountain Road in Sebago, Maine. The property contains 3 miles of frontage on the Northwest River – a major tributary to Sebago Lake, the drinking water source of the Portland Water District. The Loon Echo Land Trust will ultimately own and manage the land; the organization’s mission is consistent with the District’s goal of long-term water quality protection. Conservation easements will be acquired that prohibit development of the parcel in perpetuity.

A review of the proposed action by the DHHS has indicated that it meets the criteria for Categorical Exclusion. Specifically, the proposed action is the purchase of land integral to the implementation of a source water protection plan. Furthermore, none of the criteria, which would result in the denial of a Categorical Exclusion, have been met. This exclusion may be revoked at any time if the criteria used for this issuance are violated.

Further records of this project are on file and are available for review at the Portland Water District Office, 225 Douglass Street, Portland, Maine, and at the Department of Health and Human Services, Drinking Water Program, 286 Water Street, Augusta, Maine.

Bridgton Water District – Notice of Public Hearing

The Bridgton Water District will be filing a revised rate schedule with the Maine Public Utilities Commission to be effective October 1, 2019.

A public hearing will be held on Thursday, May 30, 2019, at 7 p.m., in the Bridgton Water District Office at 235 Portland Road, in Bridgton, Maine. The purpose of this hearing is to present the proposed water rates, which are intended to increase the District’s annual revenues by $112,247. This represents an increase of 20% in total revenues. The last rate increase was April 1, 2015, almost five years ago. The increase is necessitated by increases in debt service and operating costs due to the water line replacements in conjunction with the sewer upgrades. A typical 1000 cubic foot water (7480 gallons) user should see an approximate $11.42/quarter increase or about $0.13 per day.

Estimated increases by customer class follows. Increases within each group will vary according to usage. Public Fire Protection has been increased to equal 30% of the total revenue in accordance with PUC regulations, Chapter 690.

Customer Category Annual Increase Percentage Increase

Residential $ 50,585 15%

Commercial $ 21,554 15%

Industrial $ 1,398 15%

Municipal $ 1,545 15%

Private Fire Protection $ 3,802 31%

Public Fire Protection $ 31,940 15%

TOTAL $112,247 20%

If, within 30 days of the public hearing, 15% of the customers of the District file petitions with the Bridgton Water District trustees and the Maine Public Utilities Comm-ission demanding a review of the rates changes by the Commission, the rate change may be suspended, investigated, reviewed and changed in accordance with Section 310. Signatures on the petition are invalid unless accompanied by the printed names and addresses of the signers. Upon request, the district will provide customers with the appropriate petition forms.

The revision in rates will be filed in accordance with 35-A-M.R.S.A., Section6104. Data relating to the increase may be inspected at the Bridgton Water District office. The Public Utilities Commission may be contacted at 207-287-3831, State House Station 18, Augusta, ME 04333-0018, or at their physical address at 101 Second Street, Hallowell, ME 04347.
