A U.S. COAST GUARD helicopter from Cape Cod lands at Brunswick Executive Airport on Wednesday to drop off an old fog sensor from Seguin Island and pick up the 1,100- pound replacement to fly back to the island. According to the Friends of Seguin Island Light Station website, the group was “granted a lifetime lease from the federal government in 1986. Prior to that date, the U.S. Coast Guard ran the site for 70 years. The U.S.C.G. routinely shows up to make checks on the light and fog horn’s operation and maintain these aids to navigation.” Seguin Island Light Station is located 2.5 miles off the mouth of the Kennebec River, south of Georgetown Island.
