The proposed MPRP construction in the Town of Bowdoinham includes rebuilding approximately 2.2 miles of existing transmission lines. No new transmission lines are proposed. An existing set of "double circuit towers” supporting two 345 kV lines will be modified so that each 345 kV line will be constructed on a separate set of transmission line structures. One 345 kV line will remain on the existing set of transmission line structures, and the other line will be constructed on a new set of structures. An existing 115 kV line will also be relocated to the new 345 kV transmission line structures. All of these proposed improvements will occur within the existing CMP transmission corridor.
