Kids & Accidents: A Kenduskeag child is in critical condition after a lawn tractor accident. State Health & Environment: Maine DEP is seeking permits to use an aquatic herbicide to control invasive milfoil in Messalonskee, Androscoggin, and Little Sebago lakes, with public meetings scheduled in June.
