Vineyard Wind, America’s First Large-Scale Offshore Wind Farm –The 800-magawatt Vineyard Wind 1 Offshore Wind Energy Project will be located approximately 12 nautical miles offshore Martha’s Vineyard and 12 nautical miles offshore Nantucket in the northern portion of Vineyard Wind’s lease area (OCS-A 0501).
********************************************************************
Atlantic Shores is requesting approval from the NJDEP to divert Green Acres Program protected land. This diversion is intended to facilitate the onshore routing of high-voltage cables onto the Atlantic City beach, through Atlantic City streets, Pete Pallitto Park, past the Atlantic City Boathouse, and through Bader Field. These areas are valuable and highly utilized beach and parkland. If approved, this project could jeopardize the health and safety of Atlantic City residents and significantly impact the local and county economy, which relies heavily on tourism. The people most affected, particularly Atlantic City residents, have not been adequately informed about the project or its potential ramifications, including health, safety, and environmental justice concerns. Atlantic Shores 1 project is being fast-tracked in violation of various laws and basic human rights.
Regarding the Green Acres Diversion Request, you can still submit your comments by July 9, 2024. Instructions for submitting your comments can be found at the links at the top of this message.  It is very important that you do this to get your objections on record.
