The Maine Army National Guard built the north sea wall, the historic shed and worked on electrical and plumbing systems. They believe the value of the labor they donated to the Wood Island project was worth $623,000 - great training for the Guard, exceptional value for Kittery.
And they are ready to do it all again in 2019! Can we restore the south wall and install the pier / marine railway? With sufficient funding for the materials for the Guard to use, we can. Permits are in place, engineering is done, and the many details are now well known. If successful that will mean the project is nearing completion.

York Region Chamber of Commerce supports
Maine's Energy Future
Guiding Principles to Move Us Forward
The market for clean energy is expanding rapidly, as technologies advance and prices become cost-competitive and attractive in comparison to traditional energy choices. Many states and countries have started to make a major energy transition, recognizing the opportunity to reduce energy costs, promote economic competitiveness and innovation, and promote responsible resource use. Maine currently exports $5 billion per year from the state economy to import fossil fuels, while abundant local energy resources remain untapped and our buildings remain inefficient. We have a chance to keep our energy dollars in state by investing in an energy future that will fuel a 21st-century economy: one that is dynamic, competitive, and clean. ENERGY PATHWAY TO MAINE
