The Milltown Dam is a hydroelectric dam built on the St. Croix River between St. Stephen, New Brunswick, Canada and Calais, Maine, USA, and operated by NB Power. Its power house has a capacity of 4 megawatts with its 7 turbines.[1] Built in 1881 and modernised in the early-1900s, it is the oldest hydroelectric dam in Canada, as well as the first hydroelectric facility built by NB Power.[2] Electricity generated by the Milltown Dam is also exported to the United States, connected to a 69,000 volt transmission circuit owned by the Eastern Maine Electric Cooperative, an electric utility serving Calais.[3] References1. ^[https://www.nbpower.com/html/en/safety_learning/learning/systemmap/system_map.html NB Power System Map] 2. ^[https://www.nbpower.com/html/en/safety_learning/learning/electricity_generated/hydro/hydro_tour.html NB Power: Hydro Tour] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141012095254/https://www.nbpower.com/html/en/safety_learning/learning/electricity_generated/hydro/hydro_tour.html |date=2014-10-12 }} 3. ^US Department of Energy: "PP-32 Eastern Maine Electric Cooperative Inc", February 5, 1959.
