Matthew,
Thank you for your article in the BDN today. The article is perfect and the timing strategic. Bangor Water District has been in the news quite a bit lately focused on our rate increase needed to help rebuild our piping infrastructure.

I don’t have Peter Goodwin’s contact info. Please forward my thanks to him and NEWEA.
Best Regards,
Kathy
