In Brooksville, the feds have spent tens of millions of dollars cleaning up the Callahan Mine, and the work is coming to an end (but don't eat the shellfish—maybe ever—warns an official). Meanwhile, in Blue Hill, PFAS are found in 30 percent of tested wells in Blue Hill. On a happier note, The Packet announces a new content-sharing agreement that brings more news to readers, and the Brooklin Food Corps plans a community party.
