Estimated investment waiting
Not estimated: Investment-waiting is only estimated for projects with capacity measured in MW (generation/storage). This project's capacity is measured differently (e.g. MTPA, or pipeline length/diameter).

Sources
Data quality note: Sourced from the Maine Department of Environmental Protection (DEP)'s public Land Bureau permit records — not the Public Utilities Commission (PUC). Maine deregulated electric generation in 2000, so generation and storage projects need no PUC certificate at any size, and PUC's own Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity under 35-A M.R.S. §3132 covers only standalone (non-interconnection) transmission lines ≥100kV. DEP's Site Location of Development Act ("Site Law") is the real broad construction gate for generation, storage, and (since a 2023 amendment) high-impact transmission projects in Maine. See the ingestion module header for the full comparison. This source's permit table mixes Site Law applications together with every other kind of DEP Land Bureau permit (subdivisions, docks, driveways, shoreline stabilization, and more); candidates here are filtered to rows whose own project description mentions a generation/storage/transmission technology, with a lightweight "Permit By Rule" (an exemption process) and ancillary decommissioning/stormwater-general-permit filing excluded as not themselves a siting application. See the ingestion module header for details. Fuel/technology and capacity are parsed from this record's own free-text project description (the only project-detail text this source publishes in structured form), not a structured field — not independently verified against the underlying application materials. Located in the Town of Moscow, Maine, per DEP's own record — this is a municipality, not a county (DEP's own data does not publish county); no structured coordinates are published, so this project will not appear on the map until geocoded another way. This source's own permit table is a rolling window reflecting only the previous ~3 years of DEP Land Bureau activity, not a durable archive — a project that stayed pending for longer than that could in principle age out of what this source returns. See the ingestion module header VANISHED-CANDIDATE FIX for how this is guarded against.
