#Maine's high court rules that #VoterReferendum blocking power corridor was unconstitutional
August 30, 2022
by Kevin Miller, Maine Public"Last fall, CMP and its partners were forced to halt construction of the New England Clean Energy Connect transmission line in Maine after voters approved the referendum essentially blocking the $1 billion project. But in a decision released late Tuesday morning, Maine's Supreme Judicial Court ruled that a key portion of that ballot question would violate the developers’ 'constitutionally protected vested rights' by retroactively imposing new requirements after a key permit had been issued."
