The Quoddy project aims to build dams across inlets, creating storage basins and a power plant to attract industry and people to northern Maine.

Tidal power plan eyed for Eastport dam storage scheme
A proposed tidal energy project would store water in a reservoir near Haycock Harbor 15 miles away at 125 feet above sea level. Surge generation at the Eastport dam would cover periods when the dam cannot operate, switching power lines to the new plant. Initial work costs about ten million dollars with thousands of jobs expected by summer, and total expenditure projected beyond 36 million.
