The Orrington trash incinerator owes the town nearly $186,000 in unpaid taxes. Eagle Point Energy Center LLC has a tax bill of $176,243 for its trash incinerator at 29 Industrial Way. The bill was due before July 18, 2024, but the company did not pay it, and $9,708 of interest and mailing costs have since accumulated, according to the lien filed by the town. Evan Coleman has a 75 percent stake through Northern Farms, LLC, and the town of Orrington which owns the other 25 percent. The facility, which has been shuttered since foreclosure auctions in 2023, will start accepting trash as a transfer station this week. Currently, trash from 42 municipalities is collected and taken directly to Juniper Ridge Landfill.
