January 12, 2011

AUGUSTA, Maine ? State government offices will close at 3 p.m. due to the snow storm.

?I?ve said business is a priority, but safety is also,? said Maine Governor Paul LePage. I?m shutting down government early so state employees have the time and daylight they need to get home safely. I appreciate the effort thousands of state workers made to get to their posts today and urge everyone to take their time getting home.?

State government offices located in Aroostook County will remain open.
