Augusta - As power crews continue to bring residents and businesses back online, MaineDOT continues to clear debris from state roads and railroads. Where these two efforts intersect is when there are trees and brush entangled in power lines. MaineDOT crews cannot clear the brush or power lines from a roadway until CMP has determined the line and area are safe. Even if a line is disconnected from a pole it may be fed from residential generators or other sources.
