| It’s not been advertised by it is happening. There is a warning out to fishermen to stay out of the area of Great Gull and Little Gull shoals July 9 through July 22. Google fishing OC area warnings. | ||||||

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: Dave Walter wrote: Has [anyone] seen where they are now testing right off our shore for an area to bring the power lines from the proposed turbines onto Assateague Island near the airport??? Tom Hemmick wrote: Are there any news reports about this activity ??? I've seen NONE yet. Apparently the news outlets are unaware of what's happening. Yet we do know that Delaware has been fighting against bringing that wind power ashore in the Dagsboro, Indian River area. Headline: Major Offshore Wind Project Hits Roadblock in Delaware Vote Click Here The Delaware Sussex County Council, with a 4-1 vote has denied the wind project's plan to build a substation for bringing the power ashore there, in the Dagsboro, Indian River area. So it seems quite likely that the Wind company may be looking at the Assateague Island alternative. Bad news for the local OC area's concerns about that wind turbine project. More heavy commercialization may be coming. |
