    Jackie you certainly have put your time in plus… Sorry you missed out… I hope this collaboration of people are here to protect OUR OCEANS AND FISHERIES…. If this is a Wind-Turbine promotion group than we have a major pollution problem “POLITICAL POLLUTION to the max!!!
    Catch Shares destroyed our Fisheries, just to divide and conquer!!!
    The Obama Ocean Policy stole our Common Property!!!
    Lets not let Wind-Turbines alter and destroy OUR OCEAN ECOSYSTEM!!! Congratulations Micheal Pierdinock I think we agree!

    Once again congratulations on your appointment… I read all the comments that you made on Block Island and it’s Wind-Turbines. I was especially interested on your view of the High Voltage Power-Line and it’s lack of Fish or other Life forms… That Powerline is less then 40k Volts a tenth or less then that of a normal size Wind-Farm!!! The Power-Line designs I’ve seen are by nom means sufficient to shield the Ocean Bottom from EMF… Sand Lance live in the Gravel and Sand between EMF and Stray Electricity!!!! I can’t see them calling this home!!! Sand Lance is the quintessential forage fish for over a 100 species from Shore Birds, to Humpbacks you should see their Scars!!!
