There’s an air quality alert today in the greater Bangor area, so I went down a rabbit hole this morning to understand why the former waste-to-energy plant in Orrington, Maine is on fire yet again, after a “once in a career” fire to the facility in 2024 and trash pile fires in 2021, 2022, and 2023.
