WISCASSET NEWSPAPER • JULY 13, 2021
Central Maine Power will get back to Alna’s planning board on fire control and other questions the board asked over Zoom July 6. CMP plans about 5.3 miles of new line and 48 poles in Alna as part of an about 26 1/2-mile, 345-kilovolt line from the Cooper’s Mills substation to the Maine Yankee substation in Wiscasset, said Gary Emond of POWER Engineers in Freeport. The new line will run between the two already in CMP’s rights of way in town, Emond told the board. Three poles are in either a shoreland zone or a floodplain, he said.
