Environmentalists criticize Bowdoin's plan for solar array

December 15, 2020 GMT
BRUNSWICK, Maine (AP) Maine environmentalists have criticized Bowdoin College’s planned solar panel expansion at Brunswick Landing that could harm a coastal grassland.
The expansion will add an 18,000-panel solar array across 20 acres to the 2,150-panel array built in 2014 and be built on the Little Bluestem-Blueberry Sandplain Grassland, Bangor Daily News reported.
The site is one of four that were identified by the Maine Natural Areas Program to be “critically imperiled” due to its rarity.

BRUNSWICK Bowdoin College’s plans for a 20-acre solar array at Brunswick Landing are another step toward long-term sustainability for the college, but some local environmentalists are concerned that the array will put the health of a rare “critically imperiled” sandplain grassland further at risk.
Planning board officials approved the project last week in a 5-2 vote. Members Jane Arbuckle and Robert Burgess voted against, citing concerns that the impact on plant habitat made the project incompatible with the town ordinance. ....
