Phase one will bring critically needed electrical power to the lighthouse which will provide lighting, heat and dehumidifier for the interior of the lighthouse. Moisture control is critical to stop further deterioration of the interior of the lighthouse. This phase will bring power from the Bullard’s State Park Horse Camp to the lighthouse a distance of approximately 2 miles.
