Abstract

An article on the Kennebec Highlands, a 6,100-acre tract of protected land in the Belgrade Lakes region, just outside of Augusta. The Belgrade Regional Conservation Alliance (BRCA) is an inspirational grass-roots effort that was started in 1988 as the Watson Pond Conservation Trust. Denny Phillips has made the BRCA his life's work since he retired 8 years ago from the Department of Environmental Protection. The Kennebec Highlands project came together slowly, through a series of negotiations with dozens of landowners. The land is open for mixed use.
