ANDROSCOGGIN VALLEY â A bill before the Maine Legislature to upgrade the classification of a 12-mile section of the Androscoggin River in that state is strongly opposed by the new owners of the Gorham mill as well as the communities of Berlin and Gorham.
Submitted to the Maine Legislature in December, LD 676 calls for upgrading the section of the river from Gulf Island Dam near Lewiston-Auburn, Maine, to Merrymeeting Bay where it flows into the Atlantic Ocean.
Currently classified as a Class C, the bill seeks to upgrade that section to Class B.
Supporters of the bill said data shows the section already meets Class B standards 99 percent of the time. Upgrading the section would allow the entire river to be classified as Class B and would recognize the remarkable transformation of the river since it was considered one of the countryâs most polluted rivers.
Investment trust Middlefield Canadian Income represents an unusual but attractive proposition for investors looking for a mix of income and capital return.
Although the £108million stock market-listed fund invests ten per cent of its assets in US equities, it is unique among North American funds in having a majority of its stakes in Canadian businesses.
It s an investment strategy that means the trust has missed out on the big gains to be made from holding some of the US s big technology shares. But it s kept many shareholders sweet by continuing to pay a robust dividend throughout the pandemic, equivalent to just below five per cent a year.
