Legislative act urged before Bay sanctuary take over
About 75 Sagadahoc sportsmen met in Richmond to discuss the National Resources committee recommendation for a $100,000 federal appropriation to make Merrymeeting Bay a waterfowl sanctuary. Maine Inland Fisheries Commissioner George J. Stobie said an Act of Legislature is needed before the U S Bureau of Biological Survey can set the bay aside. The group urged forming a regional district to oppose federal action and plan a campaign to abolish the existing sanctuary if possible. A Brunswick meeting is planned for March 28.
