Dear Department of Marine Resources Notification Recipient,
Because we've recently been notified by the Maine Office of Information Technology (OIT) of extraordinarily high fees for sending notices by text message, starting January 1, 2025 DMR will be sending notices primarily by email. We will continue to investigate opportunities for improved communications and will look to OIT for support in that effort.
We will only send information via text message for communications of an emergency nature.
Please note, fishing area closures, including shellfish closures, will be sent by email.
FOR SUBSCRIBERS OF DMR NOTIFICATIONS -
To make sure you continue to receive our notifications, we want to give you the opportunity to update the email associated with your subscription to DMR notices.

FOR DMR LICENSE HOLDERS -
We will continue to use emails we have access to, including those in our license holder database, to send important notices throughout the year.
Therefore, if you are a DMR license holder, we strongly encourage you to ensure that the email address associated with your license is the one DMR should use to send notifications. For instructions on updating your contact information in DMR’s license database, including your email address, visit https://www.maine.gov/dmr/sites/maine.gov.dmr/files/docs/ContactUpdateInLEEDS.pdf
If you need help updating your email in DMR’s license database, call the DMR licensing division at (207) 624-6550, Option 2.
FOR AQUACULTURE LEASE AND LPA HOLDERS -
If you hold a lease or LPA site(s), requests for updating contact information for those sites must be sent to DMRaquaculture@maine.gov. You cannot update contact information for LPA and lease sites in DMR’s license database.
To make sure you continue to receive notices please make any necessary updates to the email address associated with DMR license, lease, or LPA by January 6, 2025.
