I was not too excited about the power line Hydro-Quebec and Central Maine Power want to build, through western Maine to Mass, until they said a substation would be built in Lewiston. I knew what that meant as I worked for Bangor Hydro for 41 years, retiring as line superintendent. It meant that we would be buying power from Hydro Quebec. Hydro units are very quiet. Maybe we could shut down some of our oil and coal burning plants to help our climate problems. If we don’t do something to help our climate we will be very sorry. ~ Dwight Whitney, Sr., Jonesboro
