BANGOR, Maine, March 2, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The Utility Division of Homeland Power & Utility, LLC, based in Bangor, Maine, has completed the 138kV Transmission Line 1176 Rebuild project in Presque Isle for Versant Power.  The project entailed construction of over 5 miles of off-road transmission line upgrade and modernization.  Homeland Power & Utility's project operations included clearing and corridor work, installing extensive environmental matting to create safe conditions for construction, as well as protecting sensitive wetlands from damage, widening a new ROW, setting 49 new double and triple-pole structures, and pulling over 27,000 feet of conductor, static, and OPGW (fiber cable).

Homeland Power & Utility was also responsible for overseeing all environmental controls in the turnkey project.
