Work on a $950 million project to bring clean energy to New England began three months ago and crews have already set a handful of the nearly 1,000 structures involved. The New England Clean Energy Connect (NECEC) project runs 145 mi. from Maine to Canada and is expected to reduce carbon emissions in Maine and New England by 3.6 million metric tons annually as hydropower replaces fossil fuels to provide power to homes across the region. Thorn Dickinson, president and CEO of NECEC Transmission, has been envisioning the day for at least a decade. “The project started with three engineers sitting around a table in Maine trying to find a way and the options to bring clean energy from Quebec into New England,” said Dickinson. “I think it is a fascinating story. In particular, what I find very interesting is that the majority of people in the country agree on the way forward, particularly on projects like this, where there are so clearly massive benefits of reduced carbon, but also economic benefits. This project is critical for Maine and for the region because it has such substantial environmental benefits in the reduction of greenhouse gases and such a big economic boost at a time when Maine really needs it.” see ENERGY page 14

Massport Preparing Port of Boston to Handle Much Larger Ships by Fall 2021 The Port of Boston is aiming to better serve New England’s economy by modernizing the facility to handle larger commercial ships — an $850 million effort that should be operational this fall. The port’s Conley Container Terminal will feature new deep-water berths and tall low-profile cranes to load/offload big container ships moving in and out of Boston Harbor. Hopes are high that the upgraded port will facilitate better trade between New England and other worldwide markets. The Massachusetts Port Authority (Massport) has worked see PORT page 12

Construction to Soon Ramp Up On Mass. South Coast Rail Construction work for the long-awaited South Coast Rail Project linking southeastern Massachusetts to Boston is ramping up this spring. Under Phase 1 of the South Coast Rail Project, six new commuter rail stations will be built along the MiddleboroughLakeville line, including at Middleborough, East Taunton, Freetown, Fall River Depot, Church Street in New Bedford and New Bedford. The Fall River and Freetown Stations are part of the first construction package. Approximately 220 parking spaces will fill the Fall River Depot Station near Davol Street and Massachusetts Route 79, not far from the original station that closed in 1958. Construction also is under way for a future layover facility at Weaver’s Cove, where trains will be stored on six tracks overnight before and after daily service. “We see this as right around the corner...it’s going to be here before we know it,” said state Rep. Carole Fiola of Fall River. “The young professionals will benefit, those who are currently living in Fall River and working in Boston who have

a regular schedule will be able to count on it, and it’s another quality-of-life piece. People who are looking to relocate and take advantage of a vibrant community expect to see public transportation.” Up until now, most of the work at both Fall River sites involved preparation work and demolition. “You’ll see crews out there doing erosion control. You’ll see others installing piles, putting in drainage. We’re doing a water main work at Weaver’s Cove,” explained Jennifer Tabakin, South Coast Rail program manager of the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA). “We are going to have a very busy spring.” The South Coast Rail Project has been 30 years in the making. The MBTA plans to finish Phase 1 of the enterprise by the end of 2023. It’s fully funded through the state’s Capital Investment Plan. The coronavirus pandemic has not caused construction delays, according to the Authority. When completed, the train ride from Fall River to Boston will be approximately 90 minutes. 

Conley Container Terminal Will Facilitate Better Trade PORT from page 1

to improve and expand Conley Terminal, a years-long effort that will celebrate a major milestone this summer when a trio of new low profile Neo-Panamax cranes arrive in Boston on a ship from Shanghai, China, the American Journal of Transportation (AJOT) reported on April 14. Massport, with funding support from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, bought the ship-to-shore cranes. They are now on a journey from China to Boston that will take approximately two months. Along with a new berth and a deepened Boston Harbor, the huge cranes will enable the port to become a more productive avenue for regional importers and exporters to connect with the global marketplace, as well as spur future growth at Conley Terminal, the only full-service facility of its kind in New England, according to AJOT. Larger cranes have become essential tools for seaports if they are to stay competitive with other facilities worldwide. Their need is due to the shipping industry’s shift toward using larger vessels that hold more containers as well as the 2016 expansion of the Panama Canal to accommodate them.

Two of the cranes now on the open seas are 205 ft. tall with a lifting height of 160 ft. and can reach 22 container rows wide. They also are the tallest low-profile cranes in the world, reported AJOT. Another crane being shipped to Massachusetts is 145 ft. tall with a lifting height of 100 ft. These new cranes will efficiently service larger container ships holding 12,000 to 14,000 TEUs (or 20-ft. equivalent units). “This significant milestone would not have been possible without the support of our local, state, and federal partners,” noted Massport CEO Lisa Wieland in a statement. “The Port being big ship ready comes at a critical time as the region’s economy recovers from the impacts of the pandemic. Massport’s investment in the future of Conley Terminal shows our commitment to support the New England importers and exporters that rely on the Port, as well as the thousands of workers across the Port.” AJOT reported that the Conley Terminal’s new Berth 10 is 1,250 ft. long and dredged to 50 ft. so the new cranes will be able to better service larger container ships. Currently, Conley is designed for 5,000 TEU ships and, under certain conditions, can load/offload vessels up to 10,000

TEUs. Other modernizations to Conley Terminal have recently been finished or are in progress, including the creation of new rubber-tire gantries, expanded container storage and other landside improvements. Among the latter was the $75 million Butler Freight Corridor, a dedicated truck roadway that provides a more efficient route for trucks to get to and from Interstates 90/93 and takes trucks off residential streets. The deepening of Boston Harbor itself also is under way and is scheduled to be completed in 2022. The $350 million enterprise is a collaboration between the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), the Commonwealth and Massport. To accommodate larger ships, the Outer Harbor Channel was dredged from 40 to 51 ft.; the Main Shipping Channel, from 40 to 47 ft.; and the Reserve Channel, where the Conley Container Terminal is found, from 40 to 47 ft., AJOT reported. Additionally, the USACE expanded the Harbor’s Turning Basin to 1,725 ft., a depth that will allow Conley to handle more efficiently 12,000 to 14,000 TEU vessels. Massport noted that despite the pandem-

ic and its effect on the economy, the Port of Boston has been able to remain a reliable supply chain partner and Conley Terminal remains virtually congestion-free while still offering personalized customer service, according to AJOT. Conley currently has an average truck turnaround time of only 30 minutes. A diverse mix of commodities are shipped through the port, including furniture, recycled fibers, seafood, wine and spirits, apparel, footwear and auto parts. Two weekly services currently use the facility. The Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC) provides direct service from Northern Europe to Boston, with connections to Latin America, the Mediterranean and Southeast Asia. A second service, the OCEAN Alliance, made up of COSCO Shipping, Hong Kong-based OOCL, Evergreen, and CMA-CGM in Dubai, provides direct service from North Asia. The expensive investment made in the Port of Boston’s improvement received significant support from the Massachusetts Congressional Delegation, the Baker-Polito Administration and the Massachusetts Legislature. 

New Maine Transmission Line Brings Energy From Quebec ENERGY from page 1
