Presumpscot Hydro LLC and Dichotomy Power Maine LLC have filed an application with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) for a non-capacity amendment of their hydroelectric license. They propose relocating the main transmission line, forming a new connection with a neighboring electric utility, and installing a new transformer, which involves minimal construction. The public is invited to comment, intervene, or protest this proposal by January 2, 2025. The application and related documents can be accessed on FERC's website, and public participation is encouraged through FERC's Office of Public Participation.
Simple Explanation
Presumpscot Hydro and Dichotomy Power Maine (now called Relevate Power Maine) want to make some small changes to their energy setup, like moving a big wire and adding a new gadget, without making the plant more powerful. People can say what they think about this plan until January 2, 2025.
