Sk0WHECAN DAM AND OTHER I
TELLING STEPS FOR GOOD Of STATE
BY CENTRAL MAINE POWER co,

ago. preparations were begun for
meeting the situation that exists to-
day.
The power increases that are It'd
| ing Central Maine industries over the
drought danger are steps in a long
series. They began in recent years
with the Rice Rips development and
the Skowhegan development. Then
followed the new boilers and the oil
burning installation in the Farming
dale Steam plant.
Last spring it was obvious to the
Central Maine Power management.
that still more power might be need

dered for Skowhegan. The first of
October it. was ready and sent its
mighty output of power into the wa
vering line of power surplus, to hold
it until other rcnforcements came
The next step was to build the North
Channel dam at Skowhegan and thus
to pile up six feet more of water. to
generate more power and to throw
more reinforcements into far flung
power lines. The full six feet of wa.
ter will not be available for a few
weeks. but by clever manoeuvering of
the construction job it has been posi-

stations, many of them in different
watersheds, any little shower which
fell this summer to wet perhaps only
few square miles of territory, usu-
ally found its way through one or more
central Maine wheels. Without inter-
connection much of the fast rushing
water must needs have been wasted.
for no small community could have
utilized SO brief and so nightly a
surge of power. With interconn

found its use at some points on the
hundreds of miles of line.
