FRYEBURG – A Fryeburg man who is upset over Poland Spring’s withdrawal of millions of gallons of water from a local aquifer is holding his own version of the Boston Tea Party this weekend.

Howard Dearborn is going to be dumping Poland Spring water back into Lovewell Pond, and he’s offering $10 apiece to the first 50 people who join him on Saturday.

Dearborn, a local business owner, lives on Lovewell Pond. He says natural springs that feed the pond have gone dry since Poland Spring began withdrawing water.

Poland Spring geologist Mark Dubois says he hasn’t seen any evidence supporting the claims.
