Hype for the Future 63Q: Town of Blue Hill, Maine
Overview The Town of Blue Hill is located in Hancock County, Maine, on the mainland with relatively close proximity to Mount Desert Island to the east. Blue Hill is perhaps most notable within the State of Maine for containing the Blue Hill Fairgrounds, where the fair is always hosted around Labor Day weekend. Apart from the Blue Hill Fair, however, the Town is also notably located along Routes 15, 172, 175, 176, and 177, with the Farmhouse Inn located along Route 15 in the outlying area and […]https://novatopflex.wordpress.com/2026/01/02/hype-for-the-future-63q-town-of-blue-hill-maine/

#EmeraldAshBorer Confirmed on #MountDesertIsland
Maine Department of Agriculture, Conservation and Forestry sent this bulletin at 04/01/2025 03:42 PM EDT
AUGUSTA, #Maine — "Maine State Forester Patty Cormier today announced that the #MaineForestService (#MFS) Forest Health and Monitoring Division has confirmed the presence of emerald ash borer (#EAB) on Mount Desert Island (#MDI) outside of the previously regulated area.
"A licensed professional arborist in Bar Harbor made the detection. The infested area shows signs of a well-established EAB population, with visible damage to ash trees from public roads.
"'This is an unfortunate but not entirely unexpected discovery,' said Cormier. 'We’ve known that EAB continues to spread throughout Maine, and we appreciate the vigilance of local arborists and community members. Public awareness is important to detecting and responding to this destructive forest pest.'
"As a result of this detection, the Maine Department of Agriculture Conservation and Forestry will expand the current EAB quarantine to include all towns on MDI. This non-contiguous quarantine may help slow the spread.
"Key guidance for landowners, municipalities, and the public includes:
- #AshTree material should remain on MDI. Logs, branches, or wood waste from removed trees should be disposed of on-site or at an island-based disposal facility.
- Ash chips are not regulated and may be legally transported off the island.
- High-value ash trees that are not heavily infested can be evaluated and may be preserved through systemic insecticide treatment by licensed pesticide applicators. These treatments require periodic reapplication.
- Infested ash trees will decline quickly and become structurally unstable. Property owners and managers are urged to evaluate ash trees near infrastructure for potential treatment or removal."The MFS and collaborators, including the Ash Protection Collaboration Across #Wabanakik's (#APCAW), Sustaining Ash Partners Network (#SAPNe), and #USDA Animal and Plant Inspection Service, continue to support ongoing mitigation efforts, including:
- Release of biological control organisms from federal partners by MFS through community partnerships.
- Seed collection and protection for future restoration led by APCAW.
- Education and technical support by varied partners.
- Public tree management and replanting through state and federal funding opportunities."'Emerald ash borer is one of the most damaging forest pests we face,' added Cormier. 'By working together—with awareness, early detection, and coordinated response—we can slow its spread and protect Maine’s forest resources.'"

I updated the "tube" map of Island Explorer routes on Mt Desert Island / Acadia National Park for 2023. Makes it easy to see the stops on different lines and how they are connected together. There's also a page with information about all the stops that includes nearby trail heads and points of interest along with the "amenities" at each stop.
This year also got a much needed face list for the layout of the map and more cohesive, nicer looking fonts.
