Responsible Department: any Manager
Over the last several years, the Cry has been engaged in a variety of efforts to identify the source
and extent of the coal tar deposits on the Penobscot River bed in the area of Bangor Landing. As
results became available, we have kept the Maine Department of Envmonmemial Protection
Informed. We are at the Point where additional investigations are required to determine the most
appropriate remediation strategy. The Maine DEP has agreed to share in the cost of this phase of
the project, matching City funding up to $250,000.
The attached resolve will appropriate the GN"s share of this phase of the project. Oxer the past
year as we have discussed potential projects W be funded from our Undesignated Fund Balance, we
have canned an item for this remediation project. We are now ready to premed, and I would
recommend your approval.
