Martha's Vineyard -Massachusetts USA
In July of 2019, the Edgartown conservation commission denied the current ocean wind turbine projects two submarine electric cables after hearing concerns from local fishermen.
The state Department of Environmental Protection which is part of the executive branch of Massachusetts has since issued a superseding order of conditions in favor of the ocean wind turbine company despite safety and health issues and destruction of the Marine Environment. Governor Charlie Baker runs the agency under the executive branch. The MassDEP is stuck in regulatory capture.
MassDEP gave the OK for two 200,000 volt electric cables to go through Musket Channel between Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket. The two 220-kV electromagnetic undersea cables would run north from the wind farm through Muskeget Channel and onto the Cape at Covell Beach in Centerville. This despite the electric cables still exposed at the Rhode Island wind turbine farm.
MassDEP is working for the ocean wind turbine company, not you or the safety of your families and/or the fishing industry.
The Block Island, Rhode Island wind farm is a demonstration project that has the wind turbines separated by 2600 feet each in which case during January 1, 2019, two fishermen died. Coast Guard helicopters could not reach the fishing boat in or around the ocean turbines. The fishermen want 6000 feet of separation in any new projects.
How corrupt is Massachusetts? Massachusetts is in a class of its own. The last three Speakers of the House of Representatives in Massachusetts all Democrats, Salvatore DiMasi, Thomas Finneran, and Charles Flaherty, have all been convicted of felonies. Democratic House Speaker Sal DiMasi got sent to prison for eight years on federal corruption charges.
Finally, the State of Massachusetts has released press statements that the ocean wind turbine project will lower your electric bill. Block Island, Rhode Island residents were told their rates would drop 40 percent if the Block Island wind farm was built they lied to them.
There has never been an ocean wind farm anywhere in the world that lowered electric rates.
