Passamaquoddy tribe plans water bottling plant to spur jobs
In Indian Township Maine the Passamaquoddy tribal leadership champions a 123000 square foot water bottling plant to create about 70 strong wage jobs and fund schools safety and health care, backed by an investor and tax credit gains. The plan leverages rainwater and surface wells, with initial output of 20 million cases per year, while preserving the land’s natural beauty and avoiding strains on the aquifer. Some members remain skeptical despite projected economic benefits and broader market demand for bottled water.
