A New Attack on the Allagash
Maine Sunday Telegram, PortlandState Senator John Martin is at it again. Martin, D-Eagle Lake, reignited a simmering conflict over management of the Allagash Wilderness Waterway with a stunt destined to become a prominent part of the conflict's sorry lore.
Martin, along with Representative Troy Jackson, D-Fort Kent, saw the July Fourth holiday as an opportune time to reopen the closed Old Michaud Farm Road with a bulldozer and a chain saw. The road was closed by the 2003 settlement of management issues known as the River Driver's Agreement.
