Island Power (& Light): Caldwell Marine International Completes Submarine Power Cable Project Offshore Maine

摘要

Caldwell Marine International was the successful bidder and recently completed the submarine power cable supply & installation contract for the Fox Island Electric Cooperative (FIEC) of Vinalhaven, Maine. FIEC is the local electrical utility for the Fox Islands located off the coast of Maine. The Fox Islands are located approximately 10 miles (16Km) off the mid-coast region of Maine in the North Atlantic Ocean. The City of Rockland Maine is the closest mainland town to the islands. The Maine State Ferries ply the waters between Rockland & the Islands on a regular year- round schedule, except when they are cancelled due to high winds in the February/March period of the year. Sitting at the mouth of Penobscot Bay, the two largest Islands of Vinalhaven & North Haven are a rugged, windswept home to the largest and most productive lobster fishing fleet in the state of Maine.
