Salazar To Decide On Cape Wind Approval By April

摘要

Interior Secretary Ken Salazar said Wednesday he will decide in April whether to approve the long-delayed 468-megawatt offshore wind farm proposed for Cape Cod in Massachusetts, urging key project stakeholders to come to an agreement or step aside.rnSalazar set the deadline following a series of meetings in Washington with both proponents and opponents of the Cape Wind project, including members of Indian tribes who say the project would interfere with their cultural practices.rnSalazar said he indicated to stakeholders that he intended for them to conclude their consultations by March 1, as he stated publicly on January 4. After the consultation, he said there would be two paths for resolving the controversy over the project.
