With regard to the recent hearings on ferry fares to and from the islands in Penobscot Bay (“State ferry hike passes unanimously,” Working Waterfront, June 2009), it would seem a fair thing if the islands’ residents were given a fare reduction all year. I hope this is something Maine DOT will consider in the future.
