Jury rules in favor of CMP, allows resumption of $1B power line project.
A jury has unanimously decided that Central Maine Power (CMP) acted in good faith by continuing the construction of a controversial power line corridor in Maine. The decision comes after a legal case was brought against CMP by opponents of the project, who argued that the company had violated state law by beginning construction before receiving necessary permits. Despite the ruling, the project still faces opposition from environmental groups and local residents.
