State officials have asked the federal government to reduce the size of the area open for wind power developments south of the Vineyard by almost 60 per cent, out of concern for the fishing industry.
The Martha’s Vineyard Commission also has weighed in with objections to the federal plan to open up some 3,000 square miles of ocean south of the Vineyard, criticizing the haste with which the U.S. Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Regulation and Enforcement (BOEMRE) was proceeding, and calling for more study of the potential impacts of development.
