The Maine Marine Patrol on Monday announced Dan White has been promoted to Lieutenant of Division I, which covers Kittery to the St. George River.

White has served as a Sergeant since 2011.

He replaces Rene Cloutier, who was promoted to Major in March.

“I have had the pleasure of working with Lieutenant White for years,” said Marine Patrol Colonel Jon Cornish. “His dedication to resource work and commitment to both the Bureau and fishing industry are second to none. I am excited that he is taking on this new challenge.”
