Sep 8, 2023
Maine’s advocate for utility customers wants state regulators to withhold more than $50 million that it says Central Maine Power Co. overspent in violation of staffing guidelines when restoring power to customers during a dozen storms in 2022.
The Office of the Public Advocate filed testimony Wednesday with the Public Utilities Commission that accuses CMP of overspending on staffing in 12 of 23 storms that the utility responded to last year.
