Several plaintiffs led by officials in Cape May County, New Jersey, filed a lawsuit against the Biden administration over development of a large offshore wind farm near the county’s coastline.
“As we’ve said many times, we spent the better part of two years trying to negotiate with Orsted to redesign this project in a way that would cause less damage to the environment and less damage to our tourism and fisheries interests,” Cape May County Board of Commissioners Director Len Desiderio said in a statement in announcing the lawsuit against several federal agencies.
