Long Beach NJ, Long Beach Township Mayor Joseph Mancini said he is disappointed that Gov. Phil Murphy failed to mention the state’s energy needs – or the controversy over offshore wind generation – in his State of the State message this week.
Long Beach Township NJ, Long Beach Township Mayor Joseph Mancini, who is heading coalition of eights shore towns opposed to the Atlantic Shores Offshore Wind (ASOW) project on environmental and economic grounds said Atlantic Shores’ effort to renegotiate the electricity agreement with the state BPU is another sign that the wind turbine project is not economically feasible and will serve only to dramatically hurt ratepayers with little environmental gain.
