CHUNKS OF ICE CAN BE SEEN FLOATING along the Kennebec River on Tuesday in Bath. The Coast Guard recently announced that it will be monitoring flood conditions on the river in preparation for ice breaking operations. While operation Kennebec River Spring Breakout is typically conducted in March or early April, the mild winter has contributed to a possible earlier timeline. Fishermen are advised to remove their ice fishing shacks as soon and safely as possible, and should refrain from being on the river during ice breaking operations, which will be visible from shorelines and bridges that span the river.
