Winter Harbor, Maine
Naval Security Group Activity Winter Harbor
Located 140 miles NE of Portland, Naval Security Group Activity, Winter Harbor (NSGAWH) occupies three locations totaling 584.6 acres. This land includes mission support facilities on the Schoodic Peninsula, military housing in the village of Winter Harbor, and an operations center near Corea. The Schoodic facility on Big Moose Island is entirely within Acadia National Park, providing a large complex of undisturbed wildlife habitat.
The prime objective of the NSGAWH environmental program is compliance with federal, state and local environmental laws. Although compliance with Maine Department of Environmental Protection and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulations is the top priority, the command takes every opportunity to go beyond compliance and demonstrate stewardship of natural resources. To date, the Public Works Department and Environmental Office have managed and implemented numerous environmental stewardship projects including the completion of detailed Flora/Fauna inventories, designation of 187 acres of wetland as a Navy Ecological Reserve Area, and assisting with broader Navy studies assessing the decline of neotropical birds. In conjunction with several partners, and educational natural resource video has been produced and distributed to area schools. The Sundew Watchable Wildlife Trail was established and opened to the public in 1997. For more information concerning the command's Natural Resource protection program, contact the Environmental Office at 207-963-5534, x458.
