A Penobscot County judge has delayed the sale of the shuttered Hampden trash plant to the group of towns signed up to use it, derailing plans to finalize the transaction by the end of June. Superior Court Justice William Anderson on Friday ordered that the sale of the Coastal Resources of Maine trash plant, which has been closed for more than two years, not proceed until a hearing on the sale terms takes place. The ruling came after two creditors, CP Manufacturing and SNC-Lavalin, who put up funds to pay for construction formally objected to the sale terms because they wouldn’t see any proceeds from it.
