The road that parallels the meandering Mattagodus Stream in a small northern Penobscot County town has become a literal dump.
Not just pieces of occasional trash exposed from the melting snow of spring.
But a slew of plastic garbage bags filled to capacity with household trash, some ripped open and spilling out, on the side of the road.
The Maine Forest Rangers are seeking information on the illegal dumping along Route 169 in Prentiss Township.
Ranger Wesley Hatch asks in a Facebook post that anyone with information to please call 207-973-3700.
