Federal regulators finalized their strategy to protect a critically endangered whale species as they expedite development of coastal waters for wind energy generation.

A new report finds that the impact of offshore wind development on an endangered whale species in a key ecosystem will be hard to distinguish from the ongoing impacts of climate change.

One of the federal lawsuits challenging approval of the Vineyard Wind 1 offshore wind project off the south coast of Massachusetts has been dismissed.

BOEM concluded that Ocean Wind 1 combined with other projects will have a “major” impact on scenic and visual factors and on scientific research.

Nantucket residents want to halt development of offshore wind within a “nexus of activity” for the critically endangered North Atlantic Right Whale.
