The report points to a pulp mill in Woodland, Maine, as one of the two main causes of ongoing water pollution in the estuary.
“During the 1960s, black liquor and other wastes from the Georgia- Pacific Pulp Mill in Woodland, Maine were dumped directly into the St. Croix River. The health of the Estuary declined dramatically and the commercial fishery of the Lower Estuary all but disappeared,” the report states. #nspoli #environment
