To the editor:

Letters in your last two issues of Working Waterfront raised some questions regarding the laws governing coastal access in Maine.

Your readers might be interested in a recently revised publication supported by Maine Sea Grant entitled “Public Shoreline Access in Maine — A Citizen’s Guide to Ocean and Coastal Law,” which can be found at: www.seagrant.umaine.edu/documents/pdf/pubacc04.pdf.
