Southwest Harbor employees and volunteers complete Manset Pier project

After almost 16 months of negotiations with the Federal Emergency Management Agency to remedy damages to Southwest Harbor’s Manset Pier, the structure has been repaired using volunteer labor. Moving forward the pier will once again support a 40,000-pound weight limit, allowing unrestricted access to commercial vehicles and recreational users. The repairs came together with community support, including 23 hours of donated time from approximately 16 volunteers, town employees and business owners who use the pier daily. Town Manager Karen Reddersen and Harbormaster Rob Leavitt expressed gratitude and appreciation to everyone that gave a hand. Photos, more, >>CLICK TO READ<< 11:34
