July 21, 2022 — The health of the ocean is at stake, according to fishing industry advocates who oppose offshore wind development.
A report on the threats posed to commercial fishing was released after an offshore wind conference held in Boston in May.
The Partnership’s Vice President and Executive Director Angela Sanfilippo said her organization is concerned about the health of the ocean, the health of the fish stock, and the health of the industry. She calls plans for fast-tracking wind developments a threat to all three.
