Rep. Chris Smith, R-N.J., introduced a bill Friday that would require the federal government to investigate whether wind energy development has caused recent whale deaths.
Mayor of Point Pleasant Beach, N.J., Paul Kanitra, says corporations stand to make billions of dollars from investments into offshore wind, a possible cause for the 18 whale deaths in 2 months.
"As part of a full-court press for answers, my legislation will investigate the level of transparency from federal agencies that greenlighted this aggressive offshore wind development and determine how much scrutiny was implemented in reviewing the environmental and maritime safety of this project, especially given its unprecedented size and scale," he continued.
