LEWISTON, Maine (AP) Two bodies found at separate Casella Waste Systems facilities in Maine and New Hampshire have caught the attention of investigators.

A body was discovered at Casella Waste Systems in Lewiston on Tuesday, less than two weeks after a body was found at a Casella waste transfer station in Belmont, New Hampshire, the Sun Journal reported.

In Maine, the body hasn’t been identified. In New Hampshire, the deceased was identified as Jessica Lurvey, 28, of Gilford, New Hampshire, officials said.

At the time, the death in New Hampshire was not considered to be suspicious, though the cause of death is still pending further tests.

Casella operates in northern New England and New York. It rents dumpsters and provides garbage pickup.
