To the editor:
Isn’t it time that we explore the possibility of processing our Maine lobsters at the site of the Brunswick Landing instead of shipping them to Canada for processing?
This would be an excellent location to build a state-ofthe art facility that would create hundreds of needed jobs in the area and open more markets throughout the world. Lobsters could be processed, frozen, and shipped anywhere in the world by air. All shells and waste products can be made into fertilizer and compost which would also create more employment.
With natural gas on the site, the energy cost would be minimal.
