Geocache Description:

me and mskacel11 decided to place a series of caches for Veazie as there is not that many in Veazie. This is the fifth one in the series. The container is a small pill bottle. NOTES: There are some plants that I don't believe are poisonous but don't trust me on that. You can find all the statuses of the caches in this series here.

Let me start with a little history and some facts about the sewage plant. In the mid 80's, the Veazie Sewer District realized that they would have to look into alternatives of sewage disposal, instead of dumping it into the Penobscot River. They hired engineers to develop a method to treat the sewage. It fully started in August of 1989. FACTS: According to the Veazie Sewer District Website, "The Veazie (Maine) Sewer District operates a three-cell aerated Lagoon system to treat up to 350,000 gallons of sanitary sewerage per day." AND "The Veazie Sewer District (Maine) uses a three-lagoon system to provide service for it's population of approximately 2000 residents along the Penobscot River. A recent upgrade included cleaning out the plant’s 2-ft sludge blanket for the first time after 12 years of operation, and relining some of the lagoons with high-density polypropylene." These caches are dedicated to the Veazie Community School as the series is called: Veazie Vikings.
