Durham’s Sinisi to be chairman of Androscoggin Soil and Water Conservation District supervisors

LEWISTON — Steve Sinisi, of Durham, was elected recently as chairman of the board of supervisors of the Androscoggin Valley Soil and Water Conservation District at its recently election. Sinisi is new to the board, and was also elected supervisor for a three-year term.

Sinisi owns a pasture-based livestock operation in Durham and has conserved his 70 acres as a Forever Farm, according to a news release from the AVSWC.

He has been working with the district for about a year and serves as a key role and an important voice for the Board of Supervisors, the release said. Current long-time Chairman Paul Roseberry’s departure saddened the board, according to the release, but they are also excited about the enthusiasm that Sinisi will bring to the district.

Sinisi has been involved in and working with agriculture since he was 15 and he ​continues to ​work tirelessly on bring​ing​ a focus to agriculture in our community, the release said.
