One of these was LD1911, a bill that would have transferred ownership of the dump in Old Town into private hands. It is still unclear exactly who was behind that legislation, but it raised serious concerns among members of the Landfill Advisory Committee, and was one of many issues that were raised at a meeting last night with DEP Commissioner Patricia Aho. WERU’s John Greenman attended the meeting, and today we have some excerpts that highlight some of the concerns raised by committee members and the public Key Discussion Points: Juniper Ridge Landfill Committee learned about LD1911 on a Friday night, late in session. The committee is meant to advise state officials Several areas of concern currently, including LD1911 (privatizing the landfill), out-of-state waste, pollution, state officials acting without consulting committee Guests n/a (recorded speakers from public meeting on 4/11/12) Call In Program: No archives@weru.org no no http://archives.weru.org/weru-news-report/weru-news-report-4412 http://archives.weru.org/weru-news-report/weru-news-report-4412#comments Wed, 04 Apr 2012 20:00:38 +0000 Community Radio WERU FM http://archives.weru.org/?p=8860 http://archives.weru.org/weru-news-report/weru-news-report-4412/feed 0 0:29:12 Issue: Alternative, Independent Local News Producer/Host: Amy Browne Program Topic: Maine Mining Legislation (LD1853) Key Discussion Points: *Today’s work session of the Joint Standing Committee on Environment and Natural Resources on proposed legis[...] Issue: Alternative, Independent Local News Producer/Host: Amy Browne Program Topic: Maine Mining Legislation (LD1853) Key Discussion Points: *Today’s work session of the Joint Standing Committee on Environment and Natural Resources on proposed legislation, written by and for companies that want to rewrite Maine’s laws to allow them to engage in open-pit metallic mineral mining. *Maine’s Chief Deputy Attorney General Linda Pistner attempts to address the issue of what a change to Maine’s mining laws might mean in light of international trade agreements like NAFTA and CAFTA *Robert Marvinney, Director of the Maine Geological Survey talks about what he says are 4 of the “most well characterized mineral deposits” in the state Call In Program: no archives@weru.org no no http://archives.weru.org/weru-news-report/weru-news-report-32812 http://archives.weru.org/weru-news-report/weru-news-report-32812#comments Wed, 28 Mar 2012 20:00:14 +0000 Community Radio WERU FM http://archives.weru.org/?p=8869 http://archives.weru.org/weru-news-report/weru-news-report-32812/feed 0 0:27:54 Producer/Host: Amy Browne An interview with Naomi Schalit and John Christie of the Maine Center for Public Interest Reporting (www.pinetreewatchdog.org) participants in a national study of the integrity of state government– in which Maine rece[...] Producer/Host: Amy Browne An interview with Naomi Schalit and John Christie of the Maine Center for Public Interest Reporting (www.pinetreewatchdog.org) participants in a national study of the integrity of state government– in which Maine received a failing grade.
