Notice of Public Hearing: Chapter 60-Kennebec River Management Plan

During the comment period for the Kennebec River Management plan, DMR received requests to hold a public hearing. Therefore, DMR has scheduled a remote public hearing on the proposed management plan for February 16, 2021 at 3pm. If you wish to participate in the proceeding, please complete the registration form no later than 12pm on February 16, 2021. DMR will contact you, via email, after that deadline with instructions on how to access the meeting.

The purpose of the public hearing is to take additional comment on the proposal. Please note that this is not a general meeting to discuss the proposed management plan. During the hearing, DMR staff will provide a brief overview of the proposal and members of the public will have an opportunity to ask clarifying questions. DMR will then take comment from those persons wishing to provide feedback. If you have already submitted written comments those are part of the record and will be considered by DMR in evaluating the proposal. Comments received in writing and at a public hearing are given equal deference. The deadline for written comment has been extended to February 26, 2021.
