Bangor Daily News Reports on Approval of Landfill Gas Line, Funding for New Media Building
The Bangor Daily News reports that the UMaine System Board of Trustees approved Monday funding for a plan that would use gas from an Old Town landfill to power UMaine’s steam plant, potentially saving up to $17 million. The board also gave approval for $3.7 million in additional funds for the renovation of Stewart Commons for studio art programs and a New Media complex. Last year the board authorized nearly $5.6 million for the project.
