Kingfish Maine Awarded $4M Grant for Powerline Upgrade for Jonesport Fish Farm
By Nancy Beal
The Dutch company that intends to establish a $100 million land-based fish farm in Jonesport on Chandler Bay recently received a huge cash infusion to upgrade the electric infrastructure from Route 1 in Jonesboro to its Mason Bay location. Kingfish Maine, which presented its plans to the Moosabec area nearly three and a half years ago, will receive $4 million in federal money to bring a 34.5-kilovolt line to the nearly 100-acre site north of Greenwood Cemetery.
