 UNION RIVER v. HOWARD BUDMAN
Union River contends that Budman's reliance on Maheux is misplaced because the civil rights violation alleged by Budman had nothing to do with the violation of the lease that led to the termination of his tenancy.
Union River's argument fails to account, however, for the defense of retaliatory eviction established in Maine's Forcible Entry and Detainer statute, 14 M.R.S.A. §§ 6001-6017 (2003 and Supp.

 City of Ellsworth Comprehensive Plan Volume 2: Section G - Marine Resources   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
The Union River drains 500 square miles in Hancock and Penobscot Counties, with a watershed 60 miles long and 45 miles wide.
The East and West Branches of the Union River merge 15 miles north of the tidewater in Ellsworth.
Principal sources of sediment contributing to filling of the channel since the last maintenance dredging in 1909 are sawdust from 19 sawmills, raw sewage and industrial wastes dumped into the river prior to the construction of the sewage treatment plant in 1978, debris from the 1923 flood, and normal river sediment from upstream erosion.

 Historical Sketch of Penobscot River & Bay, Maine
The loftiest portion of the basin is at the head waters of the main river (west branch), which has an altitude of from 1,600 to 2,000 feet.
The volume of the river in the vicinity of Bangor assumed to be 146,250 cubic feet per minute for the 24 hours at the period of extreme low run, the power in the 92 feet of fall from Milford to Bangor would be 55,600 horse-power gross, or 2,224,000 spindles for eleven hours a day.
Further west, the valley becomes merged with that of the Kennebec on the south, and the All aguash on the north, and terminates on the north-west at the highland boundaries of the State, and in the swamps and lagoons which form the common reservoir of the St. John and Penobscot.

 Wild Atlantic Salmon in Kennebec River, Maine   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
The documented existence of naturally reproducing Atlantic salmon in the Kennebec River drainage predates by more than a decade the first documentation of hatchery-reared "stray" salmon in the river system; and that wild adult salmon and wild juveniles have continued to be documented since the appearance of "stray" hatchery reared salmon in the river.
This exclusion occured although the river drainage is included in the geographic bounds of the DPS and USFandWS field staff have documented and collected genetic samples from nearly 200 wild Atlantic salmon in the Kennebec River drainage in 1994, 1995 and 1996.
Based on stocking records for Maine rivers prior to 1970, it is very unlikely, or at least extremely speculative, that the remnant salmon stock documented in the lower Kennebec River prior to 1960-1970 was wholly founded by "hatchery" strays.

 Environmental History of the Androscoggin River, Maine and New Hampshire
Along the Androscoggin, the gifts of the river — what now would be called the natural capital of the river — were often of special significance in determining where people settled, and what economic activities dominated the communities.
While the river still has high concentrations of mercury and dioxins in some of its sediments — problems that will take decades or centuries to clear up — it is now a significant recreational resource to the local communities along its banks.

 Union River Valley Teachers v. Lamoine School Comm.
CLIFFORD, J. [¶1] The Lamoine School Committee appeals from a judgment entered in the Superior Court (Hancock County, Marsano, J.) confirming an arbitration award pursuant to 14 M.R.S.A. The Committee contends that the arbitrator erred because his award disregards the underlying contract and violates state law and public policy.
It contends that the use of that standard is contrary to Maine's teacher dismissal law, 20-A M.R.S.A. § 13202 (1993), eviscerates the Committee's duty to provide a safe learning environment, places the Committee at risk of civil liability, and ignores precedent that provides for lower evidentiary standards in civil cases of this nature.
