Searsmont EMT chief Sarah Tompkins will return home from the hospital six months after the deadly explosion at the Robbins Lumber mill.
The town says a homecoming will be held for Tompkins at the Searsmont fire station on Wednesday, Nov. 18.
The fire and explosion at the mill in May left two firefighters and the mill’s co-owner dead.
The news comes a day after the state said it cited emergency departments for their response to the disaster, but agreed to suspend nearly all penalties so the towns can use the money for equipment and training.
