Orrington trash plant owes contractor $26K, company says

BANGOR DAILY NEWS • April 29, 2025

The owner of the Orrington trash incinerator owes a contractor $26,000, according to documents filed last week with Penobscot County. Eagle Point Energy Center owes $26,000 to Copia Specialty Contractors Inc., a Bangor-based company, for work done in December and January, according to a lien filed April 22. EPEC Asset Manager Evan Coleman denied Monday that the facility owes $26,000, and said it has already paid Copia $20,000. The shuttered trash incinerator was scheduled to reopen early this year but will likely be inactive for at least another year after a 10-day fire tore through the facility in October.
