Sheltra Eco-Industrial Bill Defeated in Maine House
In Augusta the Maine House rejected Rep. Carl Sheltra's Eco-Industrial bill 76 to 63. The measure would have required the state Department of Environmental Protection to weigh socio economic factors under the 1970 Site Selection Law before approving applications. The bill goes to the Senate for action, Sheltra argued it would balance jobs and environment. Opponents warned it could undermine the existing law governing commercial development and environmental safeguards.
