This evening we have told
you about several of the challenges Threemile Pond faces and some of the
applicable remediation techniques
|
|
We are aware that while some remediation techniques
are easy and relatively inexpensive to implement as individuals, other
remediation techniques will be expensive and may require outside
funding. Our report includes a
number of resources available for funding watershed remediation
projects. They include:
|
|
1)Maine DEP Website
|
|
Non-point source Water
Pollution Control Grants-to replace malfunctioning
septic systems
|
|
Non -governmental funding
sources
|
|
Watershed Management assistance
|
|
Nutrient Management Loans
|
|
Watershed Protection grant
|
|
funding junior high/high
school action projects
|
|
A second resource for
Funding is
|
|
2)Maine Natural Resource
Protection Act

Contact information is
available in the executive summary. So, there is money available and
economic reasons do not have to be the limiting factor in remediation
