Central Maine Power wants to build a new power line corridor from Quebec to Massachusetts. It will cross the AT where the AT crosses the Kennebec river at Caratunk. The Somerset County Commission is working with CMP to see how the project can contribute to 'nature-based' tourism. Maybe the ATC should get involved to see how it affects the trail. Maybe they can get the CMP to put in a pedestrian bridge over the Kennebec and save hikers fifty bucks or whatever the ferry costs now. CMP workers could use it to inspect the power lines.
