Video from the March 7 hearing in Fryeburg, Maine

Here's some video testimony from folks in Fryeburg, Maine, on Nestlé's proposed 25-year contract and 5-year extensions, totaling a 45-year contract with the Fryeburg Water Company, a public utility. This long-term contract, if approved could be a precedent-setting standard for corporate water extraction from a public water supply. Not unexpectedly, residents urged caution in committing the town to such a long-term deal. You can read about the hearing here.
