Morrill Worcester sits for a portrait at his wreath-making company in Columbia, Maine, Dec. 1, 2006. The family that wanted to build the world's tallest flagpole in Down East Maine has agreed to pay a $250,000 penalty under a consent agreement following construction of more than 50 cabins without obtaining environmental permits from the state. The Board of Environmental Protection on Wednesday, Feb. 28, 2024, signed off on the consent agreement signed late last month by Worcester, patriarch of the family whose company owns the land.
