Hello,

As a result of the camp road report to the legislature last year (developed with stakeholder input, including that of Betsy Conner Bowen of MARA), the DEP has been working on implementing some of the report recommendations.  We are in the process of developing some outreach messages, and we need your help! 

If you are willing to, please complete the questions below - they should only take about 5 minutes to complete.

Please then either email your responses to me (I will not be recording who the surveys come from), or mail back a printed version to the address below.

We would greatly appreciate your taking the time to complete the survey - and your responses would be helping make the outreach as effective as possible.

Please feel free to have other residents on camp roads with road associations complete the surveys as well - we are looking for a wide variety of opinions from residents on camp roads with road associations.

Please submit answers to the questions by February 28:

     via email: kristin.b.feindel@maine.gov, or
