AUGUSTA - A bill sponsored by Rep. Jessica Fay, D-Raymond, to increase penalties on boaters who dump septic waste into Maine waters, won unanimous approval in both chambers of the Legislature this week.
“I’m really
pleased that this bill was supported by both parties throughout the process. It
was an opportunity to work across the aisle, to help protect a resource that we
all care about,” Fay said.
The bill now goes
to the governor’s desk for his signature.
Fay
is serving her first term in the Maine Legislature and represents part of
Casco, part of Poland and part of Raymond. She serves on the Legislature’s
Environment and Natural Resources Committee.
