Pamela Laleyan3/26/2024 8:30:35 PMI am Disgusted 60 years living here !! Do not say that the deaths of the whales have always been and this is normal they are getting hit by ships yada yada !! OUR COAST LINE WAS SOLD BY MURPHY !! This is a disgrace its for what ? MONEY !! DO NOT CONTINUE TO KILL OUR OCEAN AND SEA BIRDS THAT MIGRATE HERE !! MURPHY SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF HIMSELF ARROGANT AN IDIOTIC TO THINK PEOPLE THAT LIVE HERE WILL BELIEVE THIS IS NORMAL !!! 
Sharon Tatum3/19/2023 11:42:06 AMI am alarmed at the immediate increase of dead whales, dolphins and other wildlife being washed up on the Jersey shore and East coast since the wind farm construction has begun. One does not need to be a rocket scientist to see the direct proportional relationship of this destructive outcome. I grew up on the Jersey shore and NEVER in my whole life 53 years has this ever been an occurrence. Clearly there is complete disregard for the wildlife and this extends to humans WORLDWIDE. The wind farms should never have been placed in the ocean. If they are to be used at all then perhaps on land. In the ocean they are too close to the people on the shore, too close to the whales and dolphins and fish that gravitate to the coast. If the farmers can not properly cast their nets and fish they will be forced to go out even further and this will be dangerous. The price of seafood will skyrocket and the fishing industry will greatly suffer. The livelihoods of the fisherman will suffer. We wont have fisherman and the supply chain will decrease further. This will effect the entire world. People will not want yo have homes looking at this hideous horizon that will be forever changed. Less people will rent or buy homes. The prices of homes will decrease and this will hurt the East Coast. Since construction has already begun and is killing life, then at the least a complete investigation should be done by an independent group of engineers and marine biologists to prove these wind-farms are the cause of deaths of animals and further harm that will ve done to fisherman professions and ultimately all people in the world. The food supply chain has been negatively effected. Please stop further production and construction of the wind farms. This is not approved by the people of this land and all warnings from engineers has been completely disregarded.  
Lee Evans3/19/2023 8:24:17 AMYour job is to protest the citizens and rate payers of NJ. You have sold our best interests to big wind. Our rates will at least double, and our real estate values will tumble. These turbines will affect tourism, the fishing industry, and most importantly our beautiful marine life. All these projects need to be stopped immediately! Small nuclear reactors are the answer to our carbon free energy needs, coupled with clean natural gas! Take your wind farm pins off and wake up before it is too late! Do your job! 
Jennifer Tjoumakaris 3/18/2023 11:13:04 PMThis kind of take over with no regard to sea life and the safety of our Coast Guard and borders is not only irresponsible but also putting at risk endangered species and so much more. Please start showing up to meetings and start explaining why this is necessary and what the short and long term impacts would be and whether testing has been done to make sure our ships can safely navigate these turbines whose size has not even been tested in waters that are subject to hurricanes.  
Jo Ann Laughlin3/18/2023 10:53:20 PMI oppose offshore wind projects. Offshore wind is the least efficient and most expensive energy source. The wind companies’ own documents and reports admit that the presence of wind turbines will adversely impact the multi-billion dollar NJ tourism industry. Wind company admits it expects at least a 15% reduction in shore visitors. The turbines will destroy the NJ fishing economy and crash real estate values. The wind industry docs admit the turbines will be visible not only from the beach but from inland, day and night. The installation of the massive monopoles will permanently damage the ocean floor and it’s ecosystem, destroy clamming beds, release PCBs and other cancer causing materials. The sonar mapping and high impact drilling during construction will kill whales, dolphins and other marine animals whose hearing will be damaged or destroyed and whose feeding and travel will be adversely impacted and disrupted, including endangered species. The turbine blades are deadly to birds and bats. They are not recyclable. They use thousands of gallons of fossil fuels to operate. They use metals which are mined abroad with horrible conditions for the poor people doing the mining. The turbines’ life expectancy is at best 20-25 years. Cost and methods of dismantling TBD. Costs of project passed on to NJ rate payers. Foreign companies will own and control our energy source. Project will adversely impact horseshoe crabs on which the endangered red knot depends for food (eats their eggs). Horseshoe crabs are necessary to medical field to benefit human health. Other forms of energy have substantially less negative impacts and cost such as solar and nuclear. Danger of EMF from massive cables and wires under beach sand and in communities. There are so many things wrong with this project. If the Board approves this, the Board is not looking out for the interest of NJ residents but for the interests of the wind companies, their investors and the politicians’ political ambitions. 
JM Here3/18/2023 9:59:40 PMI herby declare your unauthorized take a violation of the civil nature of the ocean and call upon you to cease all operations in the name of the people of the United States. No government shall make or inflict rule that has not been decided upon by it's people to be warranted. Your continued consumption of the Earth's natural resources are in no way green or contribute to any inflation reduction. Everything being done in the name of green energy with respect to offshore wind is a falisy of grave proportion. This government has politicized operational control without merit or science evidence this wind mills are effective and not dangerous. There is 0 information available that hasn't been paid for by big wind companies. The US has completed 0 studies to Thier effectiveness.  
Kathy Goffredi3/16/2023 5:23:20 PMPlease rethink this project!! I have written to our governor asking questions with no response. I am concerned about sea animals and their habitat. I’m worried about where the turbines go at the end of their lives? Is the material recyclable? Do they just stay in the ocean forever and pollute the waters? I have read that they break down a lot too. Do what is right for the people of NJ and stop this mess please.  
Maria Gulyas3/16/2023 9:04:29 AMWe the people feel this is being rushed and thrust upon us, the research and mapping being done off the coast is what is killing our marine ecology, the whales, dolphins, even seals washing up on our shores is intolerable! The increase in the mortality of the whale off of the East Coast does coincide with when the research and mapping that begin a little further north years ago. These animals function off ofEcholocation and sonar, and even where these wind farms are proposed is interfering with where these animals eat and migrate. Why is this being rushed? Is it because further research will prove that this is all truthful? What happens when these things fail? What is the ecological impact on a potential oil spill from one of these, I understand they require oil to function as well! I believe we need to see who in the United States is being paid for this endeavor, who in New Jersey has a personal interest and having them built, or even taking part of the build? The people of NJ say No! Please listen to us!! How does this benefit NJ or the US? All I hear is that PSEG pulled out because it wasn’t financially profitable so there is a foreign Corp about to make billions off of raising our energy costs and they will ruin our beautiful marine ecosystem in the process. Say No! 
Julie Mandes3/13/2023 8:04:14 PMI have grave concerns regarding the wind turbine projects for multiple reasons. I disagree with the allowance for harassment of marine mammals, and know that such a project will forever negatively affect our delicate ecosystem. It has a big potential to create a national security risk along with destroying the local economies of tourism and fishing and the property values will plummet! Last but not least the way that this project was pushed forward through executive action with administration that has financial ties to it should be unconstitutional and borderlines criminal! There is also research that suggests that infrasound produced by the wind turbines will have negative health affects by weakening the heart! I don’t agree with the harassment of marine mammals for any reason. This is a violation of the marine mammal protection act and NO exceptions should be made for the environmental disaster of building a turbine generation plant in the ocean. Why would you willfully allow them to violate the marine mammal protection act of which you are the stewards? Allowing for the harming of whales in this way will negatively affect the ecosystem and our planet’s well being! Denying this is related is useless because if there is no relationship then the companies themselves would not have submitted the application for take permits of many marine life as a result of surveying. While these applications for takes may not seem like a big loss; these indirect deaths are only the beginning as surely many more deaths will occur each step of the way during other stages of these projects. The damage that will occur with pile driving into the shelf to our under sea ecosystem will never be able to be recovered ! Relocate the project to lands in the US which are not being used. Don’t harass the marine mammals! Those who harm God’s creatures will ultimately answer to their creator! National security risk: Moving to wind turbine energy and shutting down existing power plants too soon puts our whole country at risk and vulnerable to attack by other countries. Other countries will be able to easily take out our energy grid with this as it leaves our country vulnerable without remaining backup from traditiinal more reliable energy sources. Industrialization of our oceans What happened to our democracy! I live in America and thought I had freedom and a say in what happens in my own town! Many have bought property in an area of beauty and nature and did not vote or sign up for our area to be industrialized and specifically not our oceans. We pay higher property taxes to live in this area and now without our approval through an executive order during a time of turmoil and trauma for everyone during which many Americans understandably shut down and kept to themselves in their homes as even directed by our government a dirty trick was being played! This executive order for the wind turbine project was pushed through! Due to these circumstances it truly should be considered unconstitutional. You passed through executive order a project that we didn’t have a say in being placed in our area. The people never got a vote for this to happen. We don’t want it here. We also don’t appreciate you lying about this project making us look to be superficial human beings worrying about a few “specks on the horizon”. What a liar! You know the actual documentation from the companies specifically states the affect this will have on our environment and the magnantutude of each of these turbines in the horizon stating “it is all you will see”. We don’t want these here. We don’t want you to destroy our property values and the tourism and fishing industries which are so vital to our area’s economy!  
Steven Brosky3/12/2023 8:31:08 PMPlease dont allow anymore wind development along the new jersey shore, there are to many negative things happening in this already fragile under water environment, Please stop Governor Murphy's latest scam on the people of New Jersey 
Regina Littwin 3/11/2023 3:15:46 PMI am against offshore wind turbines in our ocean. This is not green energy, this is I industrializing the ocean. I urge you to think carefully before the damage is done and there will be no turning back. 
Tracey Brink3/11/2023 2:28:19 PM Let it be known, I am NOT in favor of wind turbines destroying our oceans, our marine mammals, our coast, our tourism, our property values and our health. Murphy already has blood on his hands, yet he’s willing to have more. He’s a hypocrite who stopped oil/gas drilling because of the ocean floor damage but doesn’t care to damage it for this as long as his pockets are getting lined. As a tax payor for 44 years, all my life in this state, I should have a say on this not big government. Ashamed of my state for even considering this. All whales, dolphins, porpoises, and seals are protected by the Marine Mammal Protection Act, which makes touching, feeding, or otherwise harming these animals illegal. 
Rose Willis3/10/2023 2:25:42 PMTo destroy an entire coastline without knowing the true effects on its ecosystem so swiftly is disgusting and irresponsible. Our lawmakers vowed in 2018 to protect our coast , its waters, and inhabitants. This isn’t the new frontier as your treating. You have taken away the voice of the people.  
Linda petrulio 3/9/2023 1:36:53 PMPlease do not put the turbines in our ocean. They are not clean, will have a negative impact on housing prices and tourism, the kill marine life 
Lee Evans 3/8/2023 8:25:35 PMI can't believe you are doing this to our beautiful Jersey Shore. You will destroy our marine life, our coastline, our tourism, and our fishing industry. You are selling our oceans to a Foreign country! Why not put money in nuclear power? Alot more reliable and efficient. You really show your stipes by wearing your wind turbine pin, obviously a gift from Orsted. It makes me wonder what other gifts have been made and accepted.

Denise Steere3/8/2023 11:25:01 AMTell John Kelley to stop repeatedly posting his stupid letter that is authored by the lease holders of the NY Bright. Their view doesn't count since they are part of the problem! 
Denise Steere3/8/2023 11:19:47 AMThis is the largest installation in the world with no research to indicate there will not be devasting impacts to our property values, economies or the ocean ecosystem. We do not want to be part of your experiement. Stop using bully politics to shove this down our throats. 
Diane Snelson3/8/2023 11:00:52 AMI'm a taxpayer who owns a home on Brant Beach NJ for 23 years. I'm totally against the wind turbine project planned for LBI, and the entire NJ shore. We must find a better solution for climate change. The wind turbines will destroy our oceans ecosystem by KILLING vital species. I want whales, fish and shellfish of all types to live the lives they were put in the sea to live. As you may have seen, 22 whales and 4 dolphins have beached and died due to the detonations and sonar soundings which destroy the whales sensitive inner ear leaving them senseless. Because they get disoriented, they may hit a ship trying to find their way. OR hit it after they have died while washing toward shore. The erection of 1000 + windmills,1000 ft tall will be plainly visible as they will be between 5 to 15 or more miles off our coast. Does Gov. Murphy have any financial incentive to continue the wind turbine project even though whales are dying up and down the Jersey shore? Is this the reason he refuses to stop the project? A 3rd party investigation needs to done. WE THE PEOPLE DO NOT APPROVE OF THESE WIND TURBINES! Murphy signed off on this project without local input.  
ANN LARSEN3/8/2023 8:52:48 AMEND THIS SENSELESS DEBACLE NOW. TODAY. ENDANGERED WHALES KILLED, DOLPHINS AND OTHER MARINE LIFE KILLED IN THIS GREED INFESTED EFFORT TO DESTROY THE PLANET UNDER THE GUISE AND INAUTHENTIC CLOAK OF "GREEN ENERGY". THERE IS NOTHING GREEN ABOUT IT, BUT THERE IS PLENTY OF RED BLOOD ASSOCIATED WITH THE DEATHS OF THE MAGNIFICENT CREATURES ALL IN THE QUEST FOR A FEW DOLLARS-AND PRETEND GREEN ENERGY POINTS. 
Jennifer Guarino 3/8/2023 7:51:09 AMI am adamantly opposed to offshore wind projects. Wind turbines are expensive to run and provide nothing but expensive fees and costs to taxpayers and utility pairs. They are inefficient producers of energy, major polluters, non-recyclable, and destructive to the environment and marine life. This simple installation has already shown destruction in that animals are dying all along our Jersey Shore coast. Although the government claims animals are dying from boat strikes, we know that the sonar testing being done in the ocean is preventing the animals from properly navigating their way through the waters. Thus, they get disoriented and their disorient to state leads to boat strikes. Stop any further action and stop installing wind turbines along our coast. Our fishing industry and our tourism industries will suffer. As well all the animals that live in the ocean. 
Regina Littwin3/8/2023 7:24:04 AMI am against the offshore wind turbines. You will destroy our coast and marine life as we know it. Stop this insanity! 
Tanya Wyant3/8/2023 7:18:14 AMThere are over 300,000 people that have signed the petition against off shore wind. We are fighting to prevent offshore wind and our oceans from failed wind farm development. The negative impact on our ecosystems, noise pollution, fishing industry and marine life is evident based on the research and the marine life that has washed up on our beautiful shores. There has been little to no transparency to the public regarding the process and its impact. We love the jersey shore, its a place with clean beaches, abundance of wild life and where memories are made for families and generations to come. There are other ways to produce energy than polluting and industrializing our natural resource - and endangering wild life. We will continue to be against OSW, we have a voice and are speaking loud and clear. No OSW 
Donna Balara3/8/2023 7:12:14 AMYou wear an Orsted pin on your jacket? Fiodolis No bias there as you destroy our coast. How do you sleep at night? Sell outs. You keep claiming “no evidence” whales are dying from multi beam, side scan, bathymetry while you will not pause for any amount of death. Survey boats 24/7 using the whale killing technology and you deny. Noaa allowed the permits to harm yet you deny. We watch the boats movements and then a whale washes up. I’ve lived here a long time. This is unprecedented and deserves a pause. Sonar damages whales according to a navy study. You won’t pause. This is despicable. Wind is not green. You know it if you look at the data. This is a money grab for federal subsidies by foreign oil companies. Drilling is drilling. You stop one type of drilling to allow another. You are selling out your state. My state. Our ocean.  
Renee Henrich3/8/2023 6:56:31 AMWhat gives anyone the right to sell or lease our oceans one of God’s greatest creations, or just a natural wonder of the world. Wind Turbines are not green and destroy the natural habitat in the ocean and in the air, A well balanced eco system. You are destroying our ocean and coast line. How this got this far without the NJ residents being aware is beyond belief. Greed can be the only answer.  
Mike Feldmus3/7/2023 10:04:22 PMStop the wind turbines! You’re destroying our coast and killing our marine wildlife. 
Trevor Doyle3/7/2023 9:58:58 PMThis is blatantly wrong taking away our rights as local communities to have any opposition to this.. you will all go down in history as betraying your citizens, and mockingly doing it while wearing an Orsted pin on jacket.. disgraceful selling us all out. I imagine many lawsuits and corruption involved for doing this.. please stop destroying our shores.. and why does section 106 in draft EIS say the historic properties will be effected by this project but the people pushing this act like it won’t effect the individual property owners? Of course this is going to harm our shore towns and the fact that you all took away our rights is alarming. Please stop this madness before it goes too far. We understand you have vast amounts of money and pressure to push this scam but you all need to do the right thing and stop. 
SUSAN KINSELLA3/7/2023 9:55:34 PMI strongly oppose this solicitation for additional offshore wind. Our concerns about the present plans have not been addressed at all. Over 300,000 people have signed petitions calling for a moratorium in light of the whales which have been washing up on our shores. This is tragic and the appropriate environmental studies have not been undertaken. I STRONGLY OPPOSE THIS!!!

The governor, the energy companies and the BPU have all circumvented the democratic process of review, public input/resolution and legislation by means of "executive order". The ocean we love has been sold out from underneath us and we intend to get it back. WE DO NOT CONSENT.

Donna Daidone-Yahara1/23/2023 11:08:21 AMStop killing marine life (whales etc) and birds to make ugly offshore wind farms that will make the best part of NJ, our beaches, ugly and need to be moved out further than the shoreline can see. This should require a vote from all NJ residents who are unaware of these sneaky windfarm projects being approved behind their backs. The sonar from the windmill vessels are killing whales and will do the same to the dolphins when they are back from their migration places. There should be further studies done on the effect to marine and avian life from windmills. Also, if windmills are forced down our throats than energy offsets should be given only to those on the shoreline of NJ with their views impaired from windmills as their gas and energy prices in south NJ are ridiculously high. Seniors in south NJ cannot afford to heat their homes. This windfarm energy has not proven it can reduce energy costs so needs to be justified with the damage it will cause to marine and avian life and the economic damage to businesses along the shoreline when folks go to other beaches to vacation due to the impaired view on NJ beaches and dead animals washing up on our beaches. 
Carolyn Sabatina 1/21/2023 2:11:15 PMNo do not spoil our ocean!,,, 
Tasha Haight1/19/2023 12:01:42 AMThis is clearly affecting the whales that live in the ocean and needs to stop  
Susan Hiller1/17/2023 6:30:56 PMPlease revisit plans for the off-shore wind farms planned for the New Jersey coast without further unbiased research into the negative environmental impact they will have on the ocean eco-system. Moving forward without the proper due diligence is negligent and must be reversed. The unprecedented number of dead whales washing up on the New Jersey shore should be a red flag to halt all further activity immediately until proper steps are taken to understand the cause. It’s time to stop the industrialization if our ocean without the environmental impacts objectively laid out. Please do your job. 
Amy Cicalese1/16/2023 4:04:31 PM “I am opposed to the massive wind turbine project 9 miles off LBI because there has been no impact study done on the affected coastal communities, tourism, home values, precious marine wildlife, and the fishing industries. The endangered right whale’s migration path goes through the selected location. The wind farm construction and ongoing sounds will impact the endangered whale’s ability to safely migrate. There are only 350 left and 70 reproductive females. In addition, there are thousands of other sea creatures and birds that will be negatively impacted. The wind farm will industrialize our island, as it will be located only 9 miles away from the coast, in full constant view. These massive units will be over 1,000 feet tall and lighted at night. This close-in, extreme location will ruin the pristine ocean view and affect tourism. Tourism fuels our local businesses and people’s livelihoods. The extremely close location does not make sense when other locations much further out are available. Why was this location selected and not others further out? Coastal states other than New Jersey have taken a much more practical and safer path locating these projects further out to sea. I am opposed to this project and its current location.”

In light of the many whales that have dies just recently died it is clear evidence that full studies need to be be completed and this project must stop.  
Andrea Lucciola1/16/2023 9:43:48 AMI strongly oppose this solicitation to increase NJ offshore wind development. There should be a hard stop until we know the full implications to our environment. Something is clearly wrong. If it takes a whale to land on your doorstep to see that - well now you have it. I beg you to put our environment first and take money out of the equation to find the right answer. Please don’t destroy what we love about New Jersey in the first place. 
Linda Milano1/16/2023 9:42:32 AMSTOP Wind renewable energy expansion until the whales STOP dying. This is unacceptable and needs to be looked into before approving new windmills. 
Kathy King1/15/2023 11:47:25 AMThis reminds me of about 1986 when dolphins died due to effects if ocean dumping. Then there were wash upstairs of medical waste. The point of marine mammals are obviously the victims of Ocean pollution.. noise or garbage. They are the warning life forms.  
Violaine rice1/15/2023 10:54:44 AMNo more off shore renewable energy! They are killing too many whales  
Beth Tinnon1/15/2023 10:16:21 AMI oppose the wind project. This will kill, marine life, not to mention the sonic carpet bombing the ocean floor that is now killing our whales. Electrified salt water turns to chlorine when introduced to electricity. By passing a current of electricity through a sodium chloride solution the salt is decomposed into chlorine at the anode and sodium at the cathode. But the latter at once decomposes a molecule of water of the solution, forming caustic soda and setting free hydrogen. Hence the products of electrolysis are chlorine, caustic soda, 
Brittany Wright1/14/2023 8:04:42 PMI strongly oppose the destruction of our shore environment and communities by building thousands of Chrysler sized windmills 8.7 miles off our coast. I also think the millions paid off to our politicians, officials, NGOs, and universities to support this is very corrupt. Also, passing Bill A5894 AcaAa (2R) in the middle of the night by shady characters to take away local rights of opposition is extremely worrying.

Heather DeVore1/13/2023 9:36:32 PMI’m against the wind turbine farms. They kill whales as we are seeing as unprecedented amount of dead whales washing up on the NJ shores. In the macroeconomic environment, the construction and maintenance costs will be exorbitant, causing taxes and energy costs to climb. It would ruin our beaches and damage our tourism industry. It’s bad for the NJ.

Robert Burness1/13/2023 7:35:54 PMI am totally opposed to the proposed placement of this windmill project. As a Home owner and Tax payer of Surf City anew Jersey, I am extremely concerned of the damages and negative effects this will have on this small beach community. I a, not opposed to renewables if done in a sensible manner. It is common sense to see that this project will effect the migratory pattern of the mammals, birds and sea life. There will be tons of concrete adhered to the ocean floor. These mega turbines are far from green. The town itself will suffer climate change lack of surf increased humidity along with constant blinking red lights like an air strip. The state will lose tourism dollars. I myself will be leaving the island and selling my home. I do not want to bear witness to the devastation that is looming for the Jersey residents. I find it appalling that New York was able to move these 27 miles out and Hamptons pushed these into our lap. I am quite frankly disappointed in anyone that would profit from the destruction of our oceans. Sincerely a tax payer getting ready to leave New Jersey  
Gregory Fuller 1/13/2023 7:24:16 PMWe call for the immediate halting of all offshore wind activity currently being progressed (undertaken) along the New Jersey shore. We call on both the Federal Government and the State of New Jersey to ensure a thorough independent, transparent investigation of these 7 (as of this writing) whale deaths. We ask these investigations be carried out by federal agencies with independent, third party scientific oversight. These massive, unprecedented experimental projects have been fast-tracked without meaningful public input, and with all the impacted cities and towns denied the right to home rule by executive action of the Governor of New Jersey. The proposed offshore wind farms could result in irreversible ecological damage to the marine environment, including the injury or death of thousands of marine species, and as a result, greatly diminish the quality of life in our coastal communities. These projects are projected to reduce shore residents' property values, curtail tourism, severely affect the fishing, boating, and hospitality industries, greatly increase energy costs to New Jersey ratepayers, and provide no tangible benefits to the people of the State of New Jersey. In addition, this activity is proceeding before the required Environmental Impact Statements have even been finalized. This goes directly against both Federal and State Government's responsibilities to protect the precious, unique, and delicate ocean environment that is beloved and appreciated by so many millions of people from around the world and contradicts the primary goal of Executive Order 14008 which is to conserve our lands, waters, and biodiversity through clean energy technologies and infrastructure. We state here that there are many other strategies that can generate energy in a safer and more environmentally favorable way, so that New Jersey's greatest natural resource is not put at risk. Moreover, the people of the state deserve to know the quantified benefits and corresponding cumulative negative impacts of all such projects, and to participate in ANY such decisions of this magnitude going forward.   BA84DB6A-4CE8-4A32-A516-D890A79DA2EA

Tina1/13/2023 7:20:30 PMI’m extremely upset by the Murphy administration agreeing to force coastal communities into this environmental nightmare for all creatures. The billionaires who will eventually profit for this disaster will not care how it destroys lives. Maintenance of infrastructure in salt air is a constant concern for any equipment. Consumers in south Jersey shouldn’t be burdened with it! Stop this ridiculous idea! 
Eric R1/13/2023 7:06:39 PMConcerned with the permanent visual impact to the natural viewshed, a natural resource that is unique to our county's history and culture, an asset that in other countries/ states (Hawaii for example) would be determined as a cultural resource. Viewsheds are cultural resources eligible for protection under historic preservation laws. The horizon of the Atlantic Ocean is one of the few remaining, unaltered natural landscapes we have, and is a reason many residents have settled here, or continue to reside here. I agree we need more renewable resources, but there are other options inland, where landscapes and viewsheds have already been altered. Vast amounts of abandoned/ underutilized land has already been cleared. Think of all the abandoned shopping malls; more localized approaches means shorter transmission distances and more equal distribution of clean energy jobs throughout the state. 
Amy Hoffman1/13/2023 6:30:21 PMPLEASE NO OFFSHORE WINDMILLS FROM LBI TO CAPE MAY- specifically Brigantine. You will change forever the visual landscape of our beautiful beaches and ocean. You will furthermore alter our fishing community and their livelihood. And lastly you are destroying our fishing and wildlife and their natural habitat for your own personal gain or agenda in other cities and states. This proposal isn’t no way saves or promotes or benefits our coastal communities. In fact it only directly hurts us. PLEASE STOP! 9EA76404-8DD9-4E7E-91A5-1A1C39395705

Bonnie Brady1/13/2023 6:21:23 PMGovernor Murphy and the NJBPU must delay any future solicitations for offshore wind until a thorough, transparent investigation of the seven whale deaths from December 2022-January 2023 on NJ beaches is performed by federal and state agencies (NOAA/NMFS,) with independent, third-party scientific oversight. Upon completion of said investigation, there must be a determination that offshore wind survey vessels are not guilty of causing either directly or indirectly any of the recent (7) whale deaths off the coast of NJ. Until such time that the investigation is complete and adjudicated, and ALL documents have been released to the public in real-time, a hard stop must be made to all current in-water activity, and no further solicitation for offshore wind must be allowed by the New Jersey BPU. As someone who grew up in New Jersey and still visits the New Jersey shore annually, I hereby request that the NJBPU not move forward with any solicitation until offshore wind survey boats are PROVEN not to be responsible for any of the seven endangered whale deaths that took place on NJ shores, either directly or incidentally. Allowing this to move forward without reviewing the facts and protecting our endangered marine species is both cowardly and irresponsible, to our children and the future of New Jersey. Sincerely, Bonnie Brady  
Virginia T Harriett1/13/2023 6:06:38 PMAnd we are also homeowners in Brigantine, NJ - location of the latest dead whale!! Stop the coastal wind farm exploration and the wind farm!...It's killing our whales and Lord knows what else!! 
Dr Matthew Finnegan1/13/2023 5:28:40 PMOffshore wind development is not good for the Jersey shore. It’s in the preliminary planning stages and is already killing our state’s whales. It is costly to run and maintain. It will only result in higher priced electricity for every county in NJ. 
Jennifer Ostiguy1/13/2023 5:13:13 PMThere needs to be someone held accountable for the recent whale deaths. We cannot let energy production kill our whale population. This is very disappointing that more research was not done prior to these whales dying or stopped after the first two deaths.  
Michael V. Ziccardi 1/13/2023 5:10:04 PMI am opposed to offshore wind mills, not only because they are a blight on the horizon but there is insufficient evidence to determine whether the drilling and the construction of offshore wind turbines will impact marine life.  
Kari Martin1/13/2023 5:06:14 PMPlease see Clean Ocean Action's comments on the New Jersey Offshore Wind Solicitation #3 Solicitation Guidance Document Application Submission for Proposed Offshore Wind Facilities, Docket No. QO22080481.

Kari Martin1/13/2023 5:02:26 PMClean Ocean Action strongly urges NJBPU not to move forward with the “Third Solicitation” for offshore wind (“OSW”) energy development. Clean Ocean Action emailed the Acting Secretary comments since the online Public Document portal was not accepting lengthy comments or attachments. Please see the emailed comments from Clean Ocean Action.  
Alissa Kanowitz1/13/2023 4:57:36 PMI am strongly opposed to the planned placement of the Atlantic Shores wind farm, just 9 miles off of the coast of Long Beach Island. I have been coming to the island since I was 4 years old and treasure the natural beauty and wildlife of this unique place, which is so critical to the mental health and well-being of hundreds of thousands of residents and visitors each year. The island has been very careful to preserve our character and does not allow buildings over 3 stories tall. Please do not obliterate our beaches and our economy by unnecessarily placing hundreds of these behemoth ONE THOUSAND foot tall structures so close to our shores. The pictures submitted by the developers are deceptive. These structures will dominate our entire ocean views. Studies have shown that placement so close to beaches will have a major impact on tourism and will lead to a tremendous loss in home values. This is unnecessary since there is an alternate site available 30+ miles offshore. The lyrics "They paved paradise to put up a parking lot" keep going through my mind. Once these turbines are installed so close to shore, our paradise will be gone forever.

Amanda Wheeler1/13/2023 4:49:40 PMMany of us older Jersey folks grew up respecting the coast and the Atlantic Ocean for its beauty and abundance of wildlife. Over the years humans began treating the ocean as its dumping ground and exploited the coastal zone for profit. As science and experience have shown over the last 30 years since human abuse has been deemed illegal, the Ocean has healed itself, and its creatures are back. A whole new generation of humans have been raised to respect the environment in and around the Ocean until now. Warnings are loud and clear that this Ocean industrialization is harmful to all creatures great and small as these unprecedented whale deaths have shown. It is only a matter of time until human health and well being is impacted as it was in the past. Past mistakes should inform future practices. Otherwise, we are doomed. This round of environmental abuse must be stopped before it’s too late for us all.  
Christina Sciarretta1/13/2023 4:48:12 PMWe demand a stop to the offshore wind farm in defense of our marine life! 7 whales in 40 days is HORRIFYING and we New Jersey taxpayers will NOT STAND FOR IT!  
Dan forshaw 1/13/2023 4:45:43 PMFor the love of our ocean and beaches, say no to offshore windmills an any type of wind farm. It’s 100% a waste of time money and resources. The whales birds an sea life are being fatally effected just by the surveying for the projects, No body wants to admit these negative effects but they are happening. An these wind projects will only drastically increase it. Tax payers do not want them, and all it will do is drive the cost of electricity up. An the direction this economy is going the cost of everything is skyrocketing and people of New Jersey can’t afford a life like this. Please we want real help that brings prices down not up.

Molly Washburn1/13/2023 4:22:33 PMI’m here to say no to the solicitation to increase New Jersey’s offshore wind development. This proposal is dangerous to our environment and all sea life. It is completely disrupting the ecosystem and doing harm we can’t even fathom. As a community, we are please asking you to reject this action! 
George Harry1/13/2023 4:15:06 PMPlease halt these windmills until more complete analyses are done. Do we totally understand all the pros and cons of these or are we just moving forward due to the political influence.

John Anderson1/13/2023 4:06:29 PMPlease pause here until the cause of death for all these whales can be determined. renewable energy is very important but we need to do it in a manner that doesn't harm our marine mammals  
Carolyn1/13/2023 4:06:14 PMYou must immediately suspend anything related to the offshore wind mills. Seven whales have died in the past 30 days. something is happening and it must be investigated immediately. These whales are endangered species, and what we are doing to their home is not right. I got sick to my stomach. Every time I see the news that another whale has washed up. This is absolutely tragic and horrifying. 
Cindi Sutera1/13/2023 3:53:13 PMThe issue of dying whales is a tragedy that was waiting to happen since these wind turbines were rammed around the proper government process by Murphy. The small amount of energy that will generated by the wind turbines over their life expectancy does not outweigh the impact on our environment and beautiful ocean scape. It is a crime and the project should be halted with the same veracity as it was thrust upon us. 
Maddie Anderson1/13/2023 3:51:17 PMPlease stop this and review and revise whether or not this project should go ahead. This has led to extreme consequences and the complete disregard for marine life speaks volumes about the carelessness of the regulators involved in this project. 
Mary Smith1/13/2023 3:47:41 PMPlease halt the offshore windmill project! It will destroy marine life - note another beached whale this very day. You cannot justify the industrialization of our beautiful ocean. Marine life cannot be sacrificed. The turbines require further study and there should be environmental protections that need to be upheld. These turbines will severely impact the livelihood of the commercial fisherman. By the time there is any return on this huge, huge investment, these monster turbines will be obsolete. STOP THE MADNESS!  
Sheva Rosenberg 1/13/2023 3:45:47 PMPlease review, revise, and revisit this plan in the wake of these extreme and sudden whale deaths. Thank you. 
Suzann Smith1/13/2023 3:43:44 PMThis was posted on Facebook to wake people up. Many do not know that there are plans to build a turbine windmill farm 9 miles out off the Jersey coast from LBI to Ocean City. Their plan is to install thousands of these dangerous turbines. Offshore drilling is a threat to marine life and coastal economies that rely on a vibrant ocean. Not only will this destroy our beautiful ocean but it will also hinder the whales and dolphins and marine life from coming back and forth. It’s a beautiful sight and now they want to destroy it for money and profit and that is so disgusting to me. As future residents of Brigantine we are very concerned over the sudden death of 7 whales along the Jersey shore. Please join Bill and I and the long time residents of the Jersey shore to fight this plan. To think that these beautiful creatures are being destroyed needlessly for profit and money sickens us. Please write or call the Politicians of New Jersey. If you have children or grandchildren do it for them if not for yourself.

Brennan Thompson1/13/2023 3:42:02 PMThese wind farms will have an absolutely devastating effect on our marine ecosystems. This should not even be being considered. 7 whales have washed up dead in the last month. The 7th washing up just today. There needs to be a thorough and transparent investigation into the cause of this. It seems the surveying is to blame.. 
Suzanne Power1/13/2023 3:40:44 PMThe scale and magnitude of the proposed offshore wind projects is unreasonable. There is no current plan for decommissioning them in the future, and will likely wind up costing tax-payers millions. The offshore and onshore destruction will be irreversible. We would be better off subsidizing and implementing conservation efforts and utilizing solar. Stop selling our ocean!  
Danielle1/13/2023 3:39:08 PMI say NO to offshore wind farms!  
Timothy Feeney1/13/2023 3:34:37 PMI'm asking that this solicitation be suspended. Given the current rate of inflation and interest costs the development of offshore wind would be catastrophic to the ratepayers and economy of New Jersey. Having a thousand 1000ft.+ turbines as close to 9 miles off shore would blight our beautiful seascape. What these massive projects would do to the fragile ecosystem and valuable fishery is anyone's guess. 
Peggy Clark 1/13/2023 3:28:04 PMAfter the deaths of 7 whales along the Jersey coast, while surveying is going on, I am compelled to ask you to please stop this!  
Patricia Sener1/13/2023 3:25:41 PMNo! I do not want to see this go forward until proper environmental studies are done—in particular, how this affects marine mammals. Please think of the whales!

Leah Thompson1/13/2023 3:19:51 PMI am strongly opposed. Please fully investigate the short and long term impacts on the local ecosystems, wildlife, and tourism. 
Brian Duff1/13/2023 3:17:06 PMThis project conflicts with multiple laws, including the National Environmental Policy Act, Endangered Species Act, and the Marine Mammal Protection Act. There has been no comprehensive assessment or study done on the impact of this project on the local tourist economy, environment and marine life, commercial and recreational fishing, and boating safety, What is being built is an irreversible industrialization of the pristine NJ shoreline by international energy conglomerates and investors who have yet to submit any of the legally required environmental impact assessments and reviews. The pristine NJ shoreline must be considered as a long term asset that is unique to our state. Governors of other states, who recognize their shorelines are long-term assets worthy of being protected, have mandated for exclusion zones to limit visual impact of offshore energy projects. It is my belief that the Atlantic Shores project which is planned off LBI in lease area OCS-A-0549, will destroy property value and damage the economy of LBI. The potential for this should be studied, but I would offer up as evidence my intent to sell my house on LBI if the project moves forward as currently planned. It doesn't have to be this way. The project can be situated further offshore as has been done in Europe and elsewhere, and as other states across the US eastern seaboard are planning for. This legally impermissible omission is especially shocking given the current fragile state of the endangered North American Right Whale. As I am sure you are aware, 7 dead whales have washed up across the Jersey Shore in the past several weeks, and there is suspicion that the offshore activity related to wind projects could be the cause of this tragedy. Industrial Energy Development corporations must submit to the same environmental reviews and impact assessments as required by law. This project conflicts with multiple laws: National Environmental Policy Act Endangered Species Act Marine Mammal Protection Act New Jersey Coastal Zone Management It is also located in the Department of Defense Exclusion Area, potentially interfering with radar and sonarVIA-South-Attachment-E-Photosimulations-Part-7-BC02
Caroline Ginolfi1/13/2023 3:06:06 PMI am strongly concerned about the environmental consequences of offshore wind development your administration is spearheading off the coast of New Jersey. NOAA researchers and leading academic research institutions in the State of New Jersey have raised serious concerns about the long-term and potentially irreversible impacts of offshore wind development along our coastline. In less than 40 days, 7 whales have washed ashore in New Jersey, which coincides with the immediate presence of acoustic survey vessels offshore of our communities. While I am not opposed to clean energy, I am entirely opposed to the needless killing of wildlife. Offshore wind may also result in permanent ecological changes to marine environments, impacting marine mammals, seafloor habitats, the cold pool, and migratory birds. For these reasons, I strongly oppose offshore wind development off the coast of New Jersey. 
Monica Pasquinelli 1/13/2023 3:01:51 PMPlease investigate recent whale deaths and how off shore wind project’s impact ocean animals health. 
Carole Balmer1/13/2023 3:00:29 PMPlease be advised I wholeheartedly support Clean Ocean Action's 1/9/23 communication forwarded to President Joe Biden re: the comment period for OPENING OF NEW JERSEY'S THIRD SOLICITATION FOR OFFSHORE WIND RENEWABLE ENERGY CERTIFICATES (OREC). Additionally in light of irrevocable decisions before approving authorities and government agencies, it is hereby requested the comment period for these turbine projects must be once again extended for at least another 30 days. (included below) The irrefutable carcasses of endangered dead humpback whales are canaries in the coal mine indicators of something terribly gone wrong with testing & surveying by potential & pending wind turbines private for profit interests. All actions associated with the pending & proposed wind turbine off the Jersey & NY coasts must be halted immediately to allow for an extended comment period of at least 30 days and afford the public fair and equitable treatment to comment on the proposals with available scientific data afforded to the PUBLIC prior to authorizations to take actions associated with their for private profit generating activities. The undeniable increase in whales' deaths if nothing else is strangely coincidental to federal & state approvals for studies & tests associated with foreign for profit industries looking to pad their deep pockets simply creating another utility the taxpayers will be left paying for The county's potable water supply is already controlled by foreign entities The same energy concerns could be immediately addressed & accomplished with far less cumulative impacts by taking subsidies now used for fossil fuels to install solar on every Federal, State, County & Municipal structure ... it is not perfect but far better than unknown private for profit deep pockets threats & un-researched risks to our last water ecosystems / oceanic resources Carole Balmer Former Holmdel Committee Person, Deputy Mayor Environmental Commission Chair Planning Board Member Zoning Board Vice-Chair/member Bayshore Regional Sewage Authority Commissioner Save Sandy Hook Corresponding Secretary From: Ken Lagana To: Secretary, BPUBoard [BPU] Subject: [EXTERNAL] Windmills will destroy our island! Date: Thursday, December 29, 2022 8:00:48 PM Dear government officials, I am writing to express my concern about the proposed installation of windmills 8.7 miles off the coast of Long Beach island. As someone who is deeply invested in the local fishing and tourism industries, I believe that this project will have a negative impact on these important sectors of our community. Fishing is a critical part of the economy and culture of Long Beach island, and the placement of windmills in such close proximity to our waters could potentially disrupt the migration patterns of fish and other marine life. This could lead to a decline in the number and variety of fish available for commercial and recreational fishing, which would have a negative impact on local businesses and the livelihoods of those who depend on the industry. Tourism is another vital part of our community, and the presence of windmills off the coast could potentially deter visitors from coming to the island. The view of the ocean is one of the main attractions for tourists, and the windmills could mar this natural beauty and disrupt the aesthetic appeal of the area. I understand the importance of renewable energy and the need to address climate change, but I believe that there are other locations where windmills could be installed that would have a less significant impact on our local industries and way of life. I urge you to consider the potential consequences of this project on the fishing and tourism industries of Long Beach island and to consider alternative locations for the windmills. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Best, Ken Lagana  
Caroline Ginolfi1/13/2023 2:59:16 PMNo! Dangerous, fatal impacts for animals and our ocean ecosystem have already been witnessed.  
Caroline Ginolfi1/13/2023 2:57:28 PMNo! Dangerous, fatal impacts for animals and our ocean ecosystem have already been witnessed.  
Nadia Fay1/13/2023 2:52:52 PMAs a tax paying resident of New Jersey, I am opposed to the offshore wind development projects in Brigantine, New Jersey and all along the east coast. Stop killing our marine life. We deserve to have our views heard and our shores protected. Stop ignoring us for corporate profit. STOP the offshore windmills in Brigantine, New Jersey.  
Fern Aaron1/13/2023 2:51:47 PMI respectfully request to move the wind turbine complex to the Hudson South Call Area which was already approved by the federal government for wind turbines. It has the potential to provide much more wind energy than Long Beach Island. It will have much less impact on the environment, marine life, fishing and economy. The project conflicts with laws such as the National Environmental Policy Act, Endangered Species Act, Marine Mammal Protection Act, New Jersey Coastal Zone Management and it’s also located in the Department of Defense Exclusion Area. Projects off other states are no closer than 15 miles and are now being pushed much further out. Underwater noise from the turbines will exceed NOAA’s criteria. It will disturb the critically endangered North Atlantic Right Whale of which less than 400 exist today and potentially block its adjacent migration corridor. Several studies, including one sponsored by the Federal government, indicate this project will also devastate our economy, property values and businesses. Thank you for your serious consideration of this matter. 
Janet Bogorowski 1/13/2023 2:50:02 PMGovernor Murphy, Mayor Pagliughi, and all other elected officials and supposed environmentalists need to stop further development of offshore windmill farms. These hypocrites are complicit in the deaths of whales, birds, countless other forms of wildlife as well as the crippling effects it will have in the fishing industry. This is NOT an environmental boon, but a money grab and every citizen in this once great state should oppose their continuation,  
Susan Thoren1/13/2023 2:37:28 PMThe offshore wind farms have not been deemed safe for sea life. The seven dead, endangered, whales that have washed up on our coast in ONE MONTH should make that clear. We are stewards of this planet and must act responsibly. 
Nick DiCosmo1/13/2023 2:36:45 PMPlease put a stop to all offshore wind energy activity immediately! Three whale deaths in the same area in three weeks is unprecedented and horrible. We cannot pursue this technology if it means the continued deaths of these animals. These are wasteful and wrong deaths. Alternative energy is supposed to help the environment, not kill animals. We must investigate an alternate solution. The ocean ocean is the only home these whales have and it is unjust for people to be messing with it like this. STOP THE OFFSHORE WIND MILLS! 
Maximilian Kelly1/13/2023 2:31:11 PMSTOP THE OFFSHORE WIND PROJECT!!! This project is deteriorating & polluting our oceans, hurting our wildlife, and will result in nothing but an unnecessary eye sore for people to look at, who have been fortunate enough to enjoy for 100+ years. All for what? So the rich can get richer? We seriously are going to look passed all the damage it is doing ALL SO SOME GUY CAN LINE HIS POCKETS?! Disgraceful. Shame on the ‘Great’ State of New Jersey for permitting these terrible acts. 
Anne M. Zaneski1/13/2023 2:21:47 PMAs a Brigantine, New Jersey home owner and someone who has enjoyed the beaches of Brigantine for 25 years and former environmental attorney at NYSDEC, I am very worried about the proposed wind turbine projects off the shore of Brigantine and compliance with all federal, state and local laws. The wind turbines have not been adequately studied or permitted and need to be moved out at least 35 miles in accordance with similar projects- if not halted entirely- for the following reasons. Migration of right whale: to date there are more than nine whale deaths in the area and the impact of wind turbines directly 8 miles from shore and directly in the path of and cumulative effect upon migrating whales has not been adequately studied in the Brigantine area for this wind turbine project and on its face is frankly absurd. Second, the island maintains its own aquifer and impact of the economic activity of theirs wind turbine project has also not been adequately studied. Third it is only economic expedience and convenience of the project developer and a starting point in the conversation that the wind turbines are situated so close to Brigantine’s shoreline. From the town meetings that I have attended, Brigantine’s full time and part time residents are wholly opposed and/or want the turbines moved back at least 35 miles, for fear of further and already real impact to whale migration, local fishing operations, potential for oil spills, unknown health and safety impacts on swimmers, recreational boating and watercraft operational safety/health concerns, environmental blight to the sight lines off the beaches, impact to the local aquifer, local property values and tourism activity - among many important reasons to halt this project at once. Just today another whale has washed up in this area- right at the North Brigantine sea wall. Please call for an immediate injunction to stop this dangerous wind turbine project in Brigantine on behalf of its human, marine, economic and health impact it is already having on the island. Respectfully submitted.  
Nicole Pavlin1/13/2023 2:19:17 PMI'm very concerned about the whale deaths, and I would like to see a full transparent investigation performed by federal agencies with independent 3rd party scientist oversight. Please stop all current in-water activity by the offshore wind industry, until the investigation is complete. Also, please stop all new, pending, or planned offshore wind projects for the region.  
Kathryn Finnegan1/13/2023 2:13:44 PMPlease halt the process of planning for offshore wind farms. Have many of our whales need to die? And this is only the pre-construction stage.  
Anthony Pitucci1/13/2023 2:06:23 PMI, and many of us New Jersey residents and tax payers are AGAINST, the offshore wind farm. It is totally bad for the marine life and environment, and it is not worth the money and the profits. Please stop this project ! 
L long1/13/2023 1:56:54 PMThe needless slaughter of marine mammals is inexcusable and must stop. No wind turbines in the Atlantic ! Too much to lose with our endangered species and healthy ocean. Please stop this madness now.  
Terri Sullivan1/13/2023 1:52:17 PMNO TO OFFSHORE WIND DEVELOPMENT. It's very concerning to me why a number of whales (I count 7 now) that have died on the Jersey shores. My Son is a commercial diver and told me years ago that while he was doing work in the ocean along the Jersey shore that there was a constant hum/vibration going non-stop. This was a huge annoyance to him. I can't imagine what the marine life is experiencing. It's as if the whales are beaching themselves due to this hum/vibration. I think there needs to be more investigation into why this is happening before more of these wind turbines are placed in the ocean. 
Andrew Boulden1/13/2023 1:25:24 PM“NO” to the solicitation to increase New Jersey offshore wind development. The now death of seven whales should stop this process immediately. Much is not known to how much destruction this process is doing to our environment and wildlife.  
Stephanie Richardson1/13/2023 1:24:28 PM7+ ENDANGERED whales have already washed up dead along our shorelines from this irresponsible project. This project must be halted now before more damage is done. I admire the end goal of this project - renewable energy - but this is not the way to do it. The projects have been implemented too quickly and without regard for the environment - which is what this project should be about. Please abide by Clean Ocean Actions, 3 point action plan to stop this irreversible damage! 
Johanna Schwachter 1/13/2023 1:14:32 PMPlease halt these processes until the NOAA has time to run tests on the dead whales and publicize their findings. There are always other options to pursue that don't involve ecological harm. Clean energy can't be clean when stained with blood! Please do everything in your power to keep any more whales from dying. 
Sally Barbato1/13/2023 1:14:05 PMPlease do not grant NJ’s Third solicitation for offshore wind renewable energy certificates. They should not be approved as the environmental impacts are detrimental and the real cost is unknown both financially and ecologically.  
Johanna Schwachter 1/13/2023 1:13:18 PMPlease halt these processes until the NOAA has time to run tests on the dead whales and publicize their findings. There are always other options to pursue that don't involve ecological harm. Clean energy can't be clean when stained with blood! Please do everything in your power to keep any more whales from dying. 
Kristin Hodge1/13/2023 1:07:39 PMThe research alone on this project has already severely impacted our precious wildlife. Please halt all progress until a proper environmental impact assessment can be performed with full transparency.  
Victoria Schwachter1/13/2023 12:56:29 PMMore whales have washed up in the past two months on our beautiful coastline than in some previous entire YEARS. Please halt offshore wind work until NOAA investigates, prepares its testing and results and make the record public. We simply can no longer prioritize progress over our planet. These animals are precious. There are other eco friendly options to pursue while threats to ocean life are further and better understood.  
Nicole Flynn1/13/2023 12:49:34 PMThis is an eyesore but most importantly endangering the sea life that has just begun to return. Not acceptable.  
Ashley Donahue 1/13/2023 12:42:31 PMPlease halt this project! The damage to our oceanic ecosystem is going to be catastrophic and I am vehemently opposed to this project  
Stacy O'Connor1/13/2023 12:36:42 PMTo whom it may concern, We have been home owners on LBI for 14 years and visiting the island for almost 20 years. My husband and I are deeply concerned about the impact the wind farms will have on the ocean, ocean life and coastal environment of LBI. We are worried about the fishing industry, the tourist industry and the overall economy for LBI. If the turbines make it unpleasant, it will unfairly disadvantage our island compared to other coastal towns. Further, we believe the impacts whether environmental or economical have not been sufficiently studied. We have voted for Governor Murphy two times, but cannot support him on this initiative. There are better situated areas for this project to take place. We also own a home in Summit. Other more industrialized areas of NJ would be appropriate or coastal areas not utilized by residents. NJ will destroy its reputation of having beautiful, pristine beaches. We have watched beach erosion become a constant problem and we have no idea how these turbines will worsen that problem. We implore you to consider alternatives and research this project much further. 
Dave Minnick1/13/2023 12:11:01 PMThe destruction of our ocean’s ecosystem that the proposed wind farm will create is egregious and unforgiving. Alternative solutions must be weighed in place of the wind farm. The end does not justify the means. It should be the mission of our legislators and business leaders to protect our ocean, not to exploit it.

Michele Parisi1/13/2023 11:29:44 AMWhales are dying! The impact must be investigated! There has been no comprehensive assessment of the impact of this project on our environment, as well as commercial and recreational fishing and boating safety. The current lease area is in the migration path of the endangerd North Atlantic Right Whaleand the path of the Piping Plover, a threatened species of bird that nests in the Holgate Wildlife Refuge. I am all for responsible and sensible wind energy, a better location should be found. respectfully, Michele Parisi  
Robert Furrevig 1/13/2023 10:36:22 AMStop all further destruction of our precious coast by the insane wind turbine scam. We know the only reason it’s being done is greed and corruption. An evil thirst for control and power

Doris Burness1/12/2023 11:12:20 PMI am Strongly opposed to the unprecedented wind turbine project set to take place 9 miles off of Long Beach Island. As a resident and tax payer, no one has confronted the citizens of Long Beach Island who pay the taxes to maintain this area, their opinion. This project has been green lighted under the guise of clean energy and we are all aware there is nothing green about these monstrous turbines. This project was moved down the shore line from the Hamptons so they could maintain their pristine ocean and now we are paying the price. One would assume there was an environmental impact study done to evaluate the habitats, precious marine life, coastal communities, tourism, home values, recreation and fishing industries? The endangered North Atlantic Right Whale with only 350 whales remaining migrates directly through the proposed site. There are only 70 reproductive females left. This project will assuredly complete their extinction. There have been 6 infant and juvenile whales wash up on the Jersey shore line in the last 30 days! How many more will have to die? These massive turbines will be over 1,000 feet high nine miles from the shore line, they will be visible 24 hours a day with blinking lights at night. The sound that they emit have been proven to affect the marine life. In California they slaughtered 150 bald eagles. I don’t think anyone is opposed to cleaner energy, but is this really clean? Concrete structures monstrosities adhered to the ocean floor emitting constant sound waves.. {lease don’t let me forget the impact on the surf and coastal temperatures. Just move them out further.. out of the migratory pathways of sea life and birds. Who is benefitting here.. Foreign companies at our town and oceans expense. This is horrific in every which way you look at it. A concerned tax payer Doris Burness  
Cheryl Nolet1/12/2023 10:09:59 PMI am opposed to the massive wind turbine project 9 miles off LBI because there has been no impact study done on the affected coastal communities, tourism, home values, precious marine wildlife, and the fishing industries. The endangered right whale’s migration path goes through the selected location. The wind farm construction and ongoing sounds will impact the endangered whale’s ability to safely migrate. There are only 350 left and 70 reproductive females. In addition, there are thousands of other sea creatures and birds that will be negatively impacted. The wind farm will industrialize our island, as it will be located only 9 miles away from the coast, in full constant view. These massive units will be over 1,000 feet tall and lighted at night. This close-in, extreme location will ruin the pristine ocean view and affect tourism. Tourism fuels our local businesses and people’s livelihoods. The extremely close location does not make sense when other locations much further out are available. Why was this location selected and not others further out? Coastal states other than New Jersey have taken a much more practical and safer path locating these projects further out to sea. I am opposed to this project and its current location. 
Katherine Connolly1/12/2023 9:03:41 PMI have been a property owner in Long Beach Island (LBI) since 2005 and am providing comments to express my OPPOSITION to the massive wind turbine project planned for 9 miles off the coast in the ocean of LBI. This will negatively impact numerous habitats, marine wildlife, our coastal communities, tourism, home values, recreation, and the fishing industry. The endangered North Atlantic Right Whale’s migration path goes directly through the selected construction site. The wind farm construction and ongoing sonic testing will continue to impact the endangered whale’s ability to safely migrate. Whales continue to die and wash up along our shores in record numbers since the sonic testing began. The wind farm will industrialize our island, as it will be located only 9 miles away from the coastline in full and constant view. The massive turbines will be over 1,000 feet tall and lighted at night, again impacting birds and other wildlife. This close distance to shore will also ruin the pristine ocean view and affect tourism which fuels our local small businesses and people’s livelihoods. The extreme close location does not make any sense when other locations are available - either much further out to sea, or on abandoned oil rig platforms, or on land on remediated properties or brownfields where the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) process or basic Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) guidance have been followed. Coastal states other than New Jersey have taken a much more practical and safer path locating these projects further out to sea, if a terrestrial location is not an option. My family and I are OPPOSED to this project, the obvious lack of environmental due diligence and compliance with Federal/State environmental guidance, and its current location. There are other green energy options like solar panels on existing roofs, or create solar structures/canopies in parking lots for covered parking, etc. instead of RUINING our ocean.  
Michelle (Mazza) Caruso1/12/2023 8:48:54 PMI am opposed to the massive wind turbine project planned for 9 miles off the coast of Long Beach Island (LBI) in New Jersey because it is my understanding that there has been no Environmental Impact study done on the affected habitats, precious marine wildlife, coastal communities, tourism, home values, recreation, and/or fishing industry. The endangered North Atlantic Right Whale’s migration path goes directly through the selected construction site. The wind farm construction and ongoing sonic testing will continue to impact the endangered whale’s ability to safely migrate. There are currently only 350 whales remaining with only 70 reproductive females. Additionally, thousands of other sea creatures and birds and their habitats will be negatively impacted. The wind farm will industrialize our island, as it will be located only 9 miles away from the coastline in full and constant view. The massive turbines will be over 1,000 feet tall and lighted at night, again impacting birds and other wildlife. This close distance to shore will also ruin the pristine ocean view and affect tourism which fuels our local small businesses and people’s livelihoods. The extreme close location does not make any sense when other locations are available - either much further out to sea, or on abandoned oil rig platforms, or on land on remediated properties or brownfields where the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) process or basic Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) guidance have been followed. Coastal states other than New Jersey have taken a much more practical and safer path locating these projects further out to sea, if a terrestrial location is not an option. I am vehemently opposed to this project, the obvious lack of environmental due diligence and compliance with Federal/State environmental guidance, and its current location. 
Eduardo C1/12/2023 8:01:17 PMThis project will cause great damage to the Brigantine community and to the entire South Jersey area. There needs to be more visibility regarding the impact of this project. These wind turbines will be just 9 miles away from our shore. They are not your average 300 feet turbines. These turbines are larger than the Ocean Hotel in Atlantic City which can be seen from distances much greater than that. Imagine the impact that hundreds of these turbines will cause. This will greatly impact the tourism in the area. A project of this scale has not yet been erected anywhere in the United States so using any current existing windfarms as reference is pointless for our case here in NJ. This is a total disrespect to the people who lived here for entire generations and for the newcomers who decided to make this beautiful island home. More information needs to be provided to the community to show the true visual impact of these 1000+ feet monsters. The sketches and videos provided so far are of very low quality and do not depict the reality that we are about to face. 
Duane Watlington1/12/2023 5:37:59 PMWe provide these comments in the hope that the State of New Jersey, Board of Public Utilities, will change course regarding these ill-conceived projects and the inadequate economic and environmental review accompanying them. We therefore strongly oppose any new energy certificates until more research on their impact to tourism, home values, fishing, and our precious marine wildlife can be studied. VRJS is a local, NJ based company that advertises and markets over 2300 vacation rentals along the Jersey Shore from Long Beach Island to Wildwood. Over the last 4 years we have helped arrange over 100,000 “stays” for the owners who advertise with us. The Wind Projects, as currently proposed, with the wind turbines visible from shore, WILL have a negative impact on tourism. Not only is it common sense, but there are a number of studies and surveys of persons shown images of turbines, including several sponsored by the BOEM, that have concluded significant reductions in rental and tourism revenues, and property values will occur from visible turbines. I bring you attention to the following studies: New Jersey Global Insight Report, 2008 North Carolina State University Study, 2017 BOEM/University of Delaware Study, 2018 BOEM Viewshed Analysis. 2015 New York State Turbine Exclusion Distance, 2018 Of these studies mentioned above, the North Carolina study found that 55 percent of those surveyed would not re-rent that property if turbines were visible regardless of the degree of visibility or any rental discount offered. It also found that the negative reaction to wind turbines was primarily due to the offshore distance as opposed to the number of turbines. So even just a few visible turbines WILL have a negative effect on tourism. What does this equate to? New Jersey visitor spending in 2019 was 46.4 Billion, which contributed over 5 Billion in taxes to the State of NJ and 540,500 jobs making it the 6th largest employer in the state (Source: NJ Economic impact of Tourism in NJ 2019) with lodging being the #1 revenue sector. Breaking out the 4 shore counties from the above figures, the Jersey Shore contributes 22.3 Billion to the overall tourism economy or about half. If the North Carolina study is correct, that 55% of shore vacationers would not return, that would equal a 12.3 Billion dollar ANNUAL loss in tourism revenue and a 1.4 Billion dollar loss of annual tax revenue for the state of New Jersey! We cannot afford or accept this! It has come to our attention that there IS a BOEM screened and approved lease area, 30 - 57 miles off shore that is bigger, and has more wind capacity. I am referencing the “Hudson South” call area. Locating the wind farms in this area, a minimum of 30 miles off shore, and even with the bigger 12MW turbines, will solve the visual pollution that the current lease area emits, thus saving our Tourism economy which is so important to the state. We strongly urge you to slow these projects down and consider relocation of both the Ocean Wind AND the Atlantic Shores projects to the Hudson South area. It’s just common sense NOT to have those turbines visible from the shore! The Jersey Shore is our Grand Canyon! If you have never seen a sunrise on our shore, I encourage you to get up early one morning and watch one. Our pristine ocean landscape will become industrialized completely ruining the natural, unobscured view to the horizon. If our horizon becomes picketed with rows and rows of wind turbines, this pristine sight will forever be ruined. Before you issue any additional OREC’s please conduct the proper impact studies to determine their impact on coastal communities, tourism, home values, precious marine wildlife, and the fishing industries. And please consider a 35-mile exclusion zone, along our coast, like other states have done. Investigate moving them further out, so they can’t be seen from shore, to the Hudson South Call area. Thank you in advance for considering our comments in your decisions.

POLLUTION IS POLLUTION. Sound waves, debris, etc. Start a push to conserve and cutback….then everyone wins. Our sea life is in PERIL  
Lee Evans 1/12/2023 3:39:22 PMI am extremely upset about the damage thst is already being done to our ocean life by these windfarm developers. It is not green to kill endangered whales. All work must stop until a complete investigation can be done by a body that has not been paid off by the Government or the Windfarm developers. 
Daniel Furrey 1/12/2023 3:31:41 PMI did NOT buy a $500K home at the shore for you to ruin it with windmills 
Trevor Doyle1/12/2023 3:21:58 PMThis very destructive scam needs to stop before it goes to far. The local populous knows how bad this is for our environment and community. Greed should not be involved in something so precious as our shore environment and communities. The fact that Atlantic Marine Conservation Society of NY is compromised with funding and have people on board tied to these projects should forbid them from doing the Necropsies on all these whales. Their reports don’t even mention the vessels Regulus, Hos Browning, and Fugro Enterprise off our coast with “take” permits. This is all very sketchy and corrupt.

Kevin F. Dougherty1/12/2023 2:26:48 PMThe failure by BPU and associated parties to ascertain what damage these turbines will inflict on our marine life, aquaculture, the ocean floor, birds in flight, etc. is reprehensible. What I hear is the need to destroy one aspect of life for another - albeit supposedly cleaner and better. This must be stopped now and further evaluation conducted to determine the extent of harm to our pristine oceans.

Mary Coughlin1/12/2023 12:07:00 PMI am VEHEMENTLY OPPOSED TO RISKY AND UNPROVEN OFFSHORE TURBINES IN NJ, ESPECIALLY IN THE CURRENT PLAN WHERE THEY WILL BE CLOSEST, TALLEST, WIDEST IN THE WORLD!!! THIS IS A DESTRUCTION OF NJ MARINE LIFE, VITAL OCEAN, ECONOMY AND NATURAL BEAUTY. This project conflicts with multiple laws, including the National Environmental Policy Act, Endangered Species Act, and the Marine Mammal Protection Act There has been no comprehensive assessment or study done on the impact of this project on the local environment and marine life, commercial and recreational fishing, and boating safety, The irreversible industrialization of the pristine NJ shoreline by foreign companies have yet to submit any of the legally required environmental impact assessments and reviews. This legally impermissible omission is especially shocking given the current fragile state of the endangered North American Right Whale. Industrial Energy Development corporations must submit to the same environmental reviews and impact assessments as required by law. This project conflicts with multiple laws: • National Environmental Policy Act • Endangered Species Act • Marine Mammal Protection Act • New Jersey Coastal Zone Management • It is also located in the Department of Defense Exclusion Area, potentially interfering with radar and sonar  
John J Deputato1/12/2023 10:33:24 AMI am opposed to the massive wind turbine project 9 miles off LBI because there has been no impact study done on the affected coastal communities, tourism, home values, precious marine wildlife, and the fishing industries. SEE ATTACHEDLBI Windfarm Opposition
Lisa Ward-Elverson1/12/2023 10:17:52 AMI live on Harbour Beach Blvd, and fell in love with Brigantine Beach 7 years ago.The natural beauty of this beach is like no other in New Jersey. PLEASE keep it that way and protect our wildlife and ocean. I am all for green energy, but wind turbines are not "green". Greed and profits have taken over our culture and soon we will be entering a 6th mass extinction because of it.  
Suellen Librizzi1/12/2023 8:32:49 AMThe off shore wind turbine project should be stopped immediately! The effects it will have, and already has had, on our whales, dolphins, seals, fish, sea turtles and birds are well known consequences of wind turbines. Each windmill will contain 1600 gallons of transformer oil, 150 gallons of lubrication oil, diesel fuel and SF6. Turbine reliability is still not known, especially under harsh conditions and leaks would obviously wind up in our oceans and on our beaches. New Jersey has less and less beautiful open spaces and our beaches are now being in jeopardy to line the pockets of politicians!  
Ellen Petraglia1/11/2023 10:57:38 PMMy name is Ellen Petraglia and I was born and raised in Bergen County NJ and spent all of the summers of my youth at the Jersey Shore. As a 59 year who now resides in Sullivan County NY, Every week during the summer months, I continue with my husband to travel over 200 miles to the Jersey Shore and enjoy this paradise for the one day we can get away. When hearing about the wind turbines that will be introduced to these shorelines, I was devastated. There are lives and livelihoods that are at stake here. These GOD given waters have been a gift to us and all the fish, mammals and plant life that live in these waters. There will be havoc and unrest for these waters along with the people who live, visit and make a living in these locations. WE have no doubt that future generations will never get to experience the beauty of these waters with this clandestine act that is taking place right under our noses. The diabolical actions of people in power will not go unnoticed and there are many who will stand up for the justice for these fish, mammals and plant life. The 6 whales that have washed up are only the beginning of what is to come from this horrible proposal. I will get involved as much as I can to investigate and learn more about the many people who's lives have been truly effected by these wind turbines and bring to the table all I can to prove that this is a bad idea. Thank you in advance for viewing my comments.  
Mark R. Smith1/11/2023 10:10:38 PMPlease consider the long term impact of your decision. Wind turbines should only be placed where they are not visible under any conditions from the shoreline. Failure to meet that standard is a complete abandonment of your duties to the state of NJ and it’s citizens. 
Morgan Smith 1/11/2023 9:59:31 PMI, among with many other LBI residents, am in strong opposition of the wind turbines being built so close to the shore. I have been vacationing in LBI for 20+ years and can attest firsthand as to how the turbines being so close to the shore (thus obstructing the view LBI is known for) would ruin tourism, the main business the island depends on. Several potential homeowners considering buying properties on the island have told me this project is the main reason they’re changing their plans and will no longer move to LBI. There is a clear alternative solution — moving the wind turbines out a bit further — that I would implore gov officials to consider more seriously. Thank you.  
Michael Culp1/11/2023 9:57:35 PMWales are washing up on shore from testing. They can’t navigate or find food because of the noise. Please don’t destroy the shore… 
John Erdmann1/11/2023 9:30:41 PMBased upon overwhelming evidence across many similar projects, costs to NJ residents will increase significantly at a time when families are already struggling with high prices and high taxes. Most of these projects in other states have been postponed or canceled because it was not economically feasible. Please do not approve any additional work to be done and shut down the existing ones now before NJ residents are stuck with even higher costs than they are paying today. 
Laura Molineux1/11/2023 8:09:30 PMPlease end this, you are destroying our beaches. New Jersey has the best beaches in the nation. Last summer I went to Atlantic City for the first time in a very long time and was very dismayed to see the wind turbines, in my opinion they are harmful to the aesthetics of our beaches but more importantly they may harm marine life. We have had five whales wash up on our beaches in the past month. This is a huge increase. Does it have to do with the sonar exploration going on currently in preparations for the turbines? Seems likely since whales use sonar to travel through the water. Please consider at least halting this project until it can be investigated. Please don’t destroy our beautiful beaches, the best part of our state. Thank you 
nancy pino1/11/2023 6:14:46 PMI implore you to stop this corrupt plan to build thousands of Chrysler building sized windmills off our precious NJ coast. It is blatantly obvious that Orsted(DONG energy) and the other OSWs have paid off our politicians, Universities, NGOs, and state officials. Passing bill A5894 AcaAa (2R) in the middle of the night so no local communities could oppose this is extremely alarming. Not only has this been rushed through so no one can oppose this but this will destroy our shore communities and environment. The fact that our BPU is bought off and even wears an Orsted windmill pin to rigged meetings and votes unanimously in favor of the company giving them money is very corrupt. Stop this scam before it goes too far and causes HEALTH PROBLEMS for residents!!! Infrasound harms humans and these projects at 9-15 miles out WILL be exposed to chronic health harming infrasound!  
Steve Nolet1/11/2023 4:26:38 PMI am opposed to the massive wind turbine project 9 miles off LBI because there has been no impact study done on the affected coastal communities, tourism, home values, precious marine wildlife, and the fishing industries. The endangered right whale’s migration path goes through the selected location. The wind farm construction and ongoing sounds will impact the endangered whale’s ability to safely migrate. There are only 350 left and 70 reproductive females. In addition, there are thousands of other sea creatures and birds that will be negatively impacted. The wind farm will industrialize our island, as it will be located only 9 miles away from the coast, in full constant view. These massive units will be over 1,000 feet tall and lighted at night. This close-in, extreme location will ruin the pristine ocean view and affect tourism. Tourism fuels our local businesses and people’s livelihoods. The extremely close location does not make sense when other locations much further out are available. Why was this location selected and not others further out? Coastal states other than New Jersey have taken a much more practical and safer path locating these projects further out to sea. I am opposed to this project and its current location.

Louis Petraglia1/11/2023 12:04:05 PMMy name is Louis Petraglia and my wife and I travel every summer to frequent the beautiful Jersey Shore and get away from the day to day stresses of life. This proposal to introduce these wind turbines to this area will completely ruin so many lives and livelihoods of millions that have enjoyed these beaches for years and years. We know there are countless tales of what damage these turbines are doing and because the media has very sinister ways of hiding facts, they will do the same in this situation. WE have to be diligent and dive deep into what really is the driving force into why this is being proposed. It will do the opposite of being eco friendly. There is no stopping the power of the pen and the power of the voices of people that will be against this proposal. WE need to protect the future generations who long for these beaches to stay safe and stay beautiful. Creatures big and small are in the hands of this corrupt bill and it is sick making. My wife and I will do EVERYTHING we can to participate in this proposal to be turned down.  
Ellen Petraglia1/11/2023 11:53:00 AMI am a resident of Sullivan County NY but was born and raised in Bergen County NJ. I spent all of my summers growing up going to the Jersey Shore and continue to frequent there every summer since living in NY. My two hundred plus traveling miles is worth every minute as I arrive to this private paradise in my head. The thought of these wind turbines being introduced to what I call "Sacred Space" is devastating to me and thousands of others that feel the same way I do. I have never been one to ignore the injustices that come into my surroundings and this one is EPIC to me on so many levels. Quite honestly it wreaks havoc on my brain. To install something that will terrorize the ocean and everything in it is too much to bear. We can't let this happen and the powers that be have a completely different view because their view of our GOD GIVEN OCEAN has been obstructed with a wall of GREED AND POWER. Our voices will be heard and I will continue to participate in any way I can to make sure this beautiful place in our lives does not get destroyed by this diabolical act of selfishness and harm. Thank you. 
Jill VanPraagh1/11/2023 8:13:31 AMI am a homeowner on Long Beach Island, and have been coming the island my entire life (52 years).

I am also a very large owner of Municipal Bonds in the state as I believe in our states future and for the future of my children and future family. I also own two electric cars, have owned environmentally friendly businesses and believe in renewable energy, however this rushed process, along with a lack of proper testing is abominable and an embarrassment to the citizens of this state. The lack of consideration for the Right Whales, and hundreds of species of fish, birds, wildlife and negative impact on human life is something we will never get back if this project continues on its current path. Please take a serious pause, reevaluate and change the future in a truly positive way. Our future generations lives will depend on it.

Art kurtz 1/10/2023 7:18:55 PMWhile I agree with the idea of clean energy I do not feel this is an appropriate project. It seems a bit in the early phases with not enough research done on it’s negative impact on our clean ocean and all it’s marine life. These resources are also not renewable and this project could have a significant negative impact on our ocean wildlife and livelihoods of all that depend on it. 
Rose Tenuto 1/10/2023 4:44:04 PMI am against building wind turbines off the coast of my city. You have not even been able to wait for a whale migration that is happening now, that happens every year @ same time, in your rush to push this through. I have no faith that you are acting in publics best interest. Careless at the very least. 
Nancy novellino 1/10/2023 4:10:46 PMI believe that NJ should only allow completion of 1 wind farm. TEST the feasibility of the project, before committing to hundreds of wind turbines along the Jersey coast. If the projects are not successful, the Nj coastline will become a wasteland of decommissioned wind turbines in less than 2 decades. JUST ONE wind farm, the state should decide which one has the best conditions. Let the other companies wait.  
Renee Richardson1/10/2023 1:25:20 PMThere has been no comprehensive assessment or study done on the impact of this project on the local environment and marine life, commercial and recreational fishing, and boating safety. 
Mark Travers1/9/2023 5:12:19 PMHaving grown up on LBI and loving the place more than anywhere in the world, I hope we take our time to make sure this wind project really is the right solution for the shore.

"I strongly oppose the destruction of our shore environment and communities by building thousands of Chrysler sized windmills 8.7 miles off our coast. I also think the millions paid off to our politicians, officials, NGOs, and universities to support this is very corrupt. Also, passing Bill A5894 AcaAa (2R) in the middle of the night by shady characters to take away local rights of opposition is extremely worrying."

Declan Coster1/9/2023 1:49:47 PMThe people complaining about offshore wind are full of crap. This is will help the world and have minimal (if any) negative impact on the patrons of the jersey shore. The people that spew calculations of revenue loss from renting are completely lying. 
Sarah Reiley1/9/2023 12:01:44 PMI am writing to express concern and opposition to the NJ offshore wind projects, from Atlantic City to Long Beach Island. I am a NJ resident and own a home about 5 minutes from the LBI Causeway bridge. This project will negatively impact my home through the impact on our fishing, boating and tourism. It will ruin the beautiful ocean views and sunrises of our shorelines. Our tourism based economy with suffer—both our property values and businesses. I am also shocked at the disregard for the damage to marine life. The underwater noise hurts fish and I am especially concerned for whales. Only recently have we celebrated the return of many marine mammals to our shores, specifically seeing an increase in Harbor Seals and Right Whales. This project will damage the migratory route of the Right Whales. In the past month, 6 whales have washed up between New York and New Jersey. 4 of them were in New Jersey just in December. One was an infant Sperm Whale, also an endangered species. This project needs to be halted immediately and re-evaluated for overall safety and risk versus reward.  
Colleen Courtney Noto1/9/2023 12:50:39 AMI am opposed to this wind farm destroying our beautiful shore line. I am disgusted to know anyone in their right mind is approving this to happen. No one will want to vacation in NJ anymore because of this eye sore that will permanently damage our beautiful shores, while killing marine life and birds, amongst many other negative things to come if this. Who’s becoming rich from this project? I will no longer want to live south if I have to see this sight every day. Stop this please!

Craig Hyldahl1/8/2023 8:53:08 PMI am opposed to the massive wind turbine project 9 miles off LBI because there has been no impact study done on the affected coastal communities, tourism, home values, precious marine wildlife, and the fishing industries. The endangered right whale’s migration path goes through the selected location. The wind farm construction and ongoing sounds will impact the endangered whale’s ability to safely migrate. There are only 350 left and 70 reproductive females. In addition, there are thousands of other sea creatures and birds that will be negatively impacted. The wind farm will industrialize our island, as it will be located only 9 miles away from the coast, in full constant view. These massive units will be over 1,000 feet tall and lighted at night. This close-in, extreme location will ruin the pristine ocean view and affect tourism. Tourism fuels our local businesses and people’s livelihoods. The extremely close location does not make sense when other locations much further out are available. Why was this location selected and not others further out? Coastal states other than New Jersey have taken a much more practical and safer path locating these projects further out to sea. I am opposed to this project and its current location.

DONNA MAYNE1/8/2023 7:06:47 PMI heard a great suggestion- build the windmills along the existing Infrastructure along the e Xpressway or one of the pikes! The idea makes sense to me not just for building g but for maintenance.  
Julie Malpas1/8/2023 6:57:15 PMI implore you to stop this corrupt plan to build thousands of Chrysler building sized windmills off our precious NJ coast. It is blatantly obvious that Orsted(DONG energy) and the other OSWs have paid off our politicians, Universities, NGOs, and state officials. Passing bill A5894 AcaAa (2R) in the middle of the night so no local communities could oppose this is extremely alarming. Not only has this been rushed through so no one can oppose this but this will destroy our shore communities and environment. The fact that our BPU is bought off and even wears an Orsted windmill pin to rigged meetings and votes unanimously in favor of the company giving them money is very corrupt. Stop this scam before it goes too far. The installation of these windmills will destroy our precious sea life, pristine coast and property values. Please do not allow this to happen.  
Marcia Noto1/8/2023 2:47:42 PMI oppose the building and installation of wind turbines off the site of Brigantine beaches and all of the New Jersey coastal areas where people have homes. This will have a negative impact and should not be allowed to continue especially against the will of the residents and taxpayers. Thank you 
L. Caldwell1/8/2023 1:04:11 PMTo the BPU Board: I strongly object to the windmill projects or any illegal windmill project along or in the Atlantic Ocean. You are violating multiple laws without regard for them or the 10-12 whales and dolphins who thanks to your preliminary rulings have already beached and died, or the residents of New Jersey and other coastal states who are fighting to keep the ocean and shoreline the way God made it. WHO gave you the fundamental right to change, rearrange and damage our ocean and what goes on below? I submit, NO ONE! The graft, bribery and fraud that has run rampant throughout this debacle is endless, school books in Ocean City, electric bikes for police in Atlantic City, money to restore boardwalks in Ventnor and Atlantic City, plus many more under the proverbial table. Just as in the electric car, it will not run unless there is fossil fuel, ie: electricity to connect the charger to electrically charge the battery. Without electricity and oil, windmills don’t move. There are many more efficient ways to sustain our need for power. A This is another Enron scheme where billions will be wasted because someone had this hair brained idea to put these monstrosities into the ocean damaging it, the whales, shellfish, fish, fishermen’s lives, coastal tourism and the population’s peace of mind versus their physical and neurological outcomes due to the whirling, whirring noises emanating from the windmills. In the end, is it worth all of this? You will kill the ocean and coastlines along the Atlantic coast. Respectfully submitted L. Caldwell 
Gabriel Noto1/8/2023 12:57:31 PMPlease stop the development of wind turbines off the coast of New Jersey! I am extremely concerned with the adverse environmental impact as we already see mammals washing up on the beach from the survey activity! Please stop the insanity! Keep Jersey Shoreline as it is and explore alternative energy sources!  
Chad fires1/8/2023 12:27:42 PMI am strongly against this project. Please end immediately. 
Bruce Coleman1/8/2023 12:22:53 PMi am against the proposed Offshore Wind project for a couple of reasons. First, why should we be the experiment for the biggest and closest Offshore project anywhere in the world. Second, there really needs to be more study as to the environmental impact on sea life, not a rush to be first with such a project. Third, has there been much thought of the economic impact of this project on the shore towns? What happens after the life expectancy of these windmills, abandoned eyesores like abandoned oil wells in the Gulf of Mexico? This project needs to be slowed down until all issues are properly addressed.  
Carmela Marucci 1/8/2023 8:18:16 AMStop the off shore turbines. 9 Miles is way too close. They will forever damage our shoreline, the noise of the turbines over water will definitely be heard. They will hum in a torturous way. If they are efficient, effective and inexpensive, put them further out. If not, do not allow them at all. LBI should not be sacrificed for cost savings.  
Cathy Biondo1/8/2023 3:37:34 AMI vehemently oppose the construction of the turbines off the coast of Nj ..The politics behind this is an absolute disgrace..I do not believe the benefits out way the environmental impact will be to the marine life/whales as well as the amount of natural resources it takes to build these turbines and maintain them .. They will not be saving our environment by the time all is said and done. 
Carole Bentley1/7/2023 4:34:41 PMThe worst thing that can happen off our beautiful coastline. The ones in A. C. look ridiculous and are working a lot of the times. How much energy are they supplying? How is this helping controlling the weather and saving our icebergs. Just money in the pockets of N.J. Politicians. 
Wilma Rittinger1/7/2023 3:02:12 PMPlease stop funding wind mills off the coast of New Jersey. They are and will continue killing our wildlife!  
Juliane Saiia1/7/2023 2:53:59 PMPlease MOVE these far enough out so that they are not visible from our shoreline. I cannot believe this even had to be said. Anyone who EVER went to the beach can appreciate this point of view. DO YOU want to sit in the beach and lookout at ugly windmills? 
Lee Anne Gross 1/7/2023 11:22:58 AMPlease, I implore you, do not build wind farms off of the Jersey coast. This morning, 1/7/23, another dead whale washed ashore, the 3rd in a month! Our precious sea creatures are dying! 
bill duffy1/7/2023 11:11:02 AMI am opposed to the wind mill farm being proposed off of long beach island UNTIL a comprehensive impact study can be completed. As much as I am for clean energy, there are just too many questions in regards to the environmental impacts, harm to endangered species, like the right whales, harm to migrating birds and harm to the beauty and economy of LBI.  
Rose Goldsmid1/7/2023 10:37:20 AMI wholeheartedly oppose the windmills to be on the New Jersey . I believe wholeheartedly that the windmill will hurt our environment as well as kill off marine mammals and all animals in the ocean not to mention the unsightly view that we will have to look at on our beautiful Jersey shore which should be a national park and have protection from harm. We purchased a home in Brigantine New Jersey next to the state park on the ocean I say we purchased a home but we actually purchase a view and now that view that we spent over $1 million on will be ruined forever. My husband and I will wake up every morning to take photos of the sun rising over the ocean my heart breaks for that serenity that we are going to lose when the windmills are done. I have a condition with migraines that present like a stroke and flashing lights and anything spinning triggers me I am very concerned that once these windmills are completed that I will be in a constant migraine state and will be unable to do anything about it.  
Apostolos Gerasoulis1/7/2023 9:56:18 AMThe impact of the wind power will be catastrophic for the shore Communities and economy. First of all the cost of electricity will be too expensive and not competitive and as you can see companies started pulling out from these projects. If the electricity price increases people will start using wood-stoves instead defeating the entire purpose of green energy. It is already happening in countries that moved green too fast without considering the economic impact on people. Greece is one such example. Secondly the shore economy provides a very high percentage of the tax basis for NJ. It took years to turn around the negative impression of the NJ shore resulting in a booming tourism. It is estimated that that the wind turbines will have a negative impact on tourism. Third the fishing industry will be impacted. And fourth the whales will severely impacted from the construction of the turbines and the noise created by the wind turbine. We already had 3 whales dead in the shore of NJ after seismic ship went out for testing. What is puzzling to all of us is the fact that by moving the construction out to 35 miles many of these issues are solved. As a matter of fact New York moved theirs from the Hampton's to Hudson south which 35 miles from NJ. Why does the Murphy administration allow New York to use New Jersey shoreline while it builds their own wind farm 9 miles from the shore in long beach island? Instead of working with the community to find the best solution you are trying to make decisions that will impact the life's of so many people and also will destroy the construction industry the fishing and tourist industries and kill the 350 whales left in that area. Furthermore the impact on global climate is zero. If you want to make an impact support countries that have become the worst polluters in the world or invest on technologies that filter pollution before release. By killing the whales with these projects you will release more co2 in the atmosphere that you gain by having the whales absorbing CO2 as recently was proven. Other than politicaly motivate these projects make no sense from a scientific or an economic perspective. 
Rachel Pascarella1/7/2023 9:12:11 AMThere is insufficient research on the effectiveness of wind turbine. As a homeowner I do not support the building or proximity of the wind turbines to our coast: Harm to endangered Right Whale Conflict with laws including the National Environmental Policy Act, Endangered Species Act, and Marine Mammal Protection Act Harm to the LBI economy Lack of research and assessment about the environmental and commercial impact  
AJ Sonnick1/7/2023 7:46:55 AMHi there I am opposed to the chosen location for offshore wind energy off the coast of Long Beach Island. It’s given proximity is unsightly and will ruin the economy and property values. Additionally, there are better chosen locations for this project. These need to be highly considered and they are not. The current chosen location will ruin marine life and the fishing industry, and significantly impact tourism. I urge you to reconsider this project and not do harm that cannot be undone.  
Agron Shabani1/7/2023 2:48:40 AMWe need more renewable energy resources, The establishment of more solar and wind farms is long overdue 
Michele Wagner 1/7/2023 12:00:42 AMHi I have a few questions. 1.How much of my taxes are going towards this for initial set up and ongoing? 2. Which Companies are being paid and how much? 3. Who approved this without putting it on the ballot? 4. Can you please show us the long term studies that prove the value and ROI of this SPECIFIC approach being implemented off LBI, where has it been done before and what has been the PROS & CONS? 5. How many jobs will it bring to the LBI Community? 6. HOW WILL IT AFFECT OUR OCEANS? 7. HOW WILL IT AFFECT THE MARINE LIFE esp the WHALES, SEALS, DOLPHINS, SKATE FISH, BIRDS? We cannot afford to kill off anymore wildlife, it’s affecting our climate, it’s affecting our Earth. We need to PROTECT OUR OCEANS.  
Martin Buckley1/6/2023 9:16:07 PMI cannot believe this is being proposed. There is an astonishing amount of data and resources that show the detriments far outweigh the benefits of this energy source. There are other places that a project like this could go, that would be less detrimental. Nine miles is not far enough into the ocean. This would be THE most visible wind turbine project in the world. Think about that. There are better locations. Every other state/country has proven that. The most visible wind turbine project is not a title that this state wants to earn. This project is aesthetically unpleasant. That will lead to lost tourism revenue and lower property values. Some estimated facts and figures include: $300+ million lost tourism revenues annually, 18% fewer visits to Long Beach Island, 55% loss of previous renters of ocean front/view properties, $200k to $1 million loss in value for every ocean view and ocean front property, with similar losses in value expected for other properties. These economic damages could lead to business bankruptcies and property foreclosures. This industrial wall only 9 miles out will certainly lead to issues for recreational boaters and fisherman. These activities are enjoyed by millions of people per year in this area. Both residents and tourists alike. Even with moving them further out (30+ miles), they would still be detrimental to wildlife. Marine life in our area already has enough issues to contend with in order to survive. A project like this would surely impact marine life of all shapes and sizes. For example, the North Atlantic Right whale (“the right whale”), one of the most endangered whale species, is a critical part of the marine ecosystem, but is heavily threatened by this project. The right whale helps make the ocean a key “carbon sink,” meaning it holds large amounts of carbon that would otherwise contribute to climate change. The right whale is more than just ANOTHER tragic story of a species rapidly declining towards extinction. Losing the right whale would mean losing a CRUCIAL ecosystem service that helps stabilize our ever changing climate. Both offshore wind turbine installation AND operation threatens the right whale, as these processes disrupt not only the whale, but also its prey, making it more difficult for this endangered species to survive. The underwater noise associated with turbine operation is expected to divert the right whale from its normal migration path. This will similarly impact other marine life such as tuna, dolphins, other whales and fish. Similarly, wind turbines are a threat to birds, birds of prey (osprey), and waterfowl (ducks/geese). The American Bird Conservatory, projects that approximately 681,000 birds are currently killed by wind turbines in the U.S. each year. This number is only going to increase with more turbines. (https://abcbirds.org/blog21/wind-turbine-mortality/). Green energy isn’t green if it threatens to wipe out a critical species and limit ecosystem services! It goes against basic logic.  
Brooke Reichert 1/6/2023 8:35:31 PMTHE OCEAN IS NOT A FARM!!! We do not even know the effects this will have on erosion this is not natural or safe. So let me get this straight let’s save the planet by using wind farms but kill marine life in your way? How does this make sense. How is this legal. The Endangered Species Act of 1973 provides a framework to conserve and protect endangered and threatened species and their habitats both domestically and abroad. An abroad company is coming to our land, with no regard for an endangered species. The wind farms where they stand in the world are a danger to all animals! there are much more efficient at home strategies than putting helpless endangered animals at risk and violating the endangered species act as if it’s not protected. The shear fact we have entertained the idea of having a total lack of regard for our planet and it’s inhabitants for the greater good of a green earth you propose ? A mortal sin. Praying for the species of this planet.  
Robert Roth1/6/2023 8:28:22 PMI don’t want the wind Turbines here at all! 
Heather Dee1/6/2023 8:10:48 PMPlease reconsider the location of this project. Installing turbines off the coast of LBI will cause irreparable damage to LBI’s tourism industry, to the property value of beachfront homes, and to the lives of the endangered North Atlantic right whale. A far superior location for this project exists in the Hudson South Call Area. Hudson South offers the potential for significantly more wind energy than the current lease area. Hudson South has already been screened by the BOEM for conflicts with fishing, marine mammals and navigation, for development cost, and it was already approved for wind projects. The turbines will not be visible from the shoreline so no economic consequences exist for the adjacent shore towns. 
Jennifer Roth1/6/2023 8:06:43 PMWe want the turbines moved farther away from our view. It will ruin tourism and kill our local businesses. 
Anne Coiley1/6/2023 7:45:15 PMI am opposed to the massive wind turbine project planned for 9 miles off the coast of Long Beach Island (LBI) in New Jersey because it is my understanding that there has been no Environmental Impact study done on the affected habitats, precious marine wildlife, coastal communities, tourism, home values, recreation, and/or fishing industry. The endangered North Atlantic Right Whale’s migration path goes directly through the selected construction site. The wind farm construction and ongoing sonic testing will continue to impact the endangered whale’s ability to safely migrate. There are currently only 350 whales remaining with only 70 reproductive females. Additionally, thousands of other sea creatures and birds and their habitats will be negatively impacted. The wind farm will industrialize our island, as it will be located only 9 miles away from the coastline in full and constant view. The massive turbines will be over 1,000 feet tall and lighted at night, again impacting birds and other wildlife. This close distance to shore will also ruin the pristine ocean view and affect tourism which fuels our local small businesses and people’s livelihoods. The extreme close location does not make any sense when other locations are available - either much further out to sea, or on abandoned oil rig platforms, or on land on remediated properties or brownfields where the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) process or basic Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) guidance have been followed. Coastal states other than New Jersey have taken a much more practical and safer path locating these projects further out to sea, if a terrestrial location is not an option. I am vehemently opposed to this project, the obvious lack of environmental due diligence and compliance with Federal/State environmental guidance, and its current location. 
Antor Miha1/6/2023 7:24:34 PMThis is to oppose the Don Quixote wind turbine on our shores. Unleash American Energy.  
Kerianne Augusty1/6/2023 7:05:27 PMI am in complete opposition to the offshore wind project off of LBI. These turbines will have a negative impact on tourism which will in turn negatively impact all of the small businesses on the island and the unique way of living we all enjoy on LBI. Additionally, these turbines will greatly and negatively impact our marine life, including the migration of the endangered North Atlantic right whale, as well as fishing and boating safety. Lastly, I enjoy watching the Sunrise over the horizon from my families oceanfront home. These turbines will completely ruin the view that so many, including myself, enjoy year round.  
Kelsey Peretti1/6/2023 6:49:01 PMWhile I understand the benefit I wind farms bring I am OPPOSED to them being placed 9miles off the coast of LBI. Please consider putting them somewhere else NOT visible to the beach go-ers and residents who live on the island for its beauty as is and this wind farm will ruin that.  
Kelsey Peretti1/6/2023 6:44:56 PMWhile I understand the good in windfarms but please consider putting them somewhere else or at LEAST on the coast of LBI NOT visible to the beach goers and residents who live there for its beauty as is. 
Kelly Miller1/6/2023 6:31:49 PMPlease move them out further or not at all. The LBI coast has become a home to numerous marine animals, especially the whales. Do not jeopardize all the hard work that has been done and achieved over the years. Why take 1 step forward and 2 steps back. Look at CNN’s special on how u successful the wind turbines have been and what a mess they have caused in the ocean. LBI supplies a large majority of seafood to the east coast. Now you want to jeopardize that too! L 
Dom Pascarella1/6/2023 5:12:04 PMWe are very concerned about endangering the whale species. Also the birds that will be chopped up by the turbines. There is a bird preserve at the southern tip of long Beach Island. Having the birds get slaughtered by turbines seems like some kind of cruel joke. Also, people go to the shore to gaze out on the Horizon and not be reminded of commercialism. NJ has enough industrial eye sores. Leave the shore alone. 
nancy pino1/6/2023 4:16:15 PMPLEASE STOP this crazy industrialization of our OCEAN (esp so close to shore)!! These projects have NOT been studied to understand the full impacts of and have the potential to forever change our fragile ocean ecosystem marine life and several endangered whales! The projects that are esp close to shore WILL cause health problems to residents from infrasound and will violate NJ nighttime residential noise limits as the sound carries over water! Not to mention destroy our visual canvas. Our homes will lose property value and we will lose a big chunk of our tourism and our fishing industry! Not to mention our utility bills will go up making basic needs like heat and power less affordable!

Christine Gain1/6/2023 2:31:52 PMIt is imperative to say know to the wind turbines. There is headline after headline of the mechanical flaws with turbines. In addition, they will kill dolphins, whales, and other sea life along with shore and migratory birds. The sound they generate is horrific. There has been scientists stating people shouldn’t live within 12 miles of them. They have not proven to be efficient and we certainly should not assume that this is a green choice that makes sense. Keep the peace and tranquility of the shore being organic. Please, I beg you.

bria rebe1/6/2023 1:52:59 PMHello. I am greatly opposed to the Atlantic Shores proposed project of offshore wind turbines off the coast of Long Beach Island. It is a shame this unethical plan can even be considered when it disregards concern of the negative impact it will have on environmental factors, economical factors and more to coastal communities. These wind turbines, (which are not only an eyesore) - will harm endangered species, such as the Right Whale, along with other aquatic wildlife and bird and bat species, - conflict with laws including the National Environmental Policy Act, Endangered Species Act, and Marine Mammal Protection Act, - harm the fishing industry, - harm the Long Beach Island economy (tourism, home values, recreation, etc.).

Thomas Rogers1/6/2023 9:16:29 AM I am a life time NJ resident. I do not believe that wind power generation will solve any energy issues… particularly climate change and economic replace fossil fuels. It is truly a fictional attempt to funnel tax dollars to political campaign coffers and it will ruin NJ beach’s and commercial fishing. It will leave NJ with an oceanic environmental disaster after the politicians and their cronies have fattened their bank accounts and left the state! WE DO NOT WANT NOR NEED INEFFICIENT UNTESTED WIND FARMS OFF OUR COASTS … Stop this corrupt madness ! 
Lisa Daidone 1/6/2023 9:10:56 AMAs a concerned citizen of NJ, I would like to have the answer to why the rush to put theses windmills up in our Ocean? Why did the people who vote in NJ have no input on these in our ocean! If this is such a great source of green energy, why didGovernor Murphy change the laws in NJ to allow the easy path ways for theses to be built? The environmental impact statements are finished so how can these wind farms be rushed thru without them being done? The migration of the right whale is being tracked in the proposed site of the wind farms off Brigantine, doesn’t we the people of NJ need to be the their voice? Do we have to make this majestic animals Extinct ? NJ has 114 superfund chemical vlean up sites, do we the people of NJ Need to make the Ocean 115? The current land infrastructure is not built to handle the energy from the windmills, so again why the rush? If the government of NJ J and the BPU believe this a good source of green energy why put 5 and see how they react with the ocean and the truth of how much energy these truly produce .  
Karen sorbara 1/6/2023 8:55:51 AMI am completely agaihst the wind turbines due to the fact that it will hurt the endangered sea life.  
Christine Murray1/6/2023 8:21:52 AMThis project conflicts with multiple laws, including the National Environmental Policy Act, Endangered Species Act, and the Marine Mammal Protection Act There has been no comprehensive assessment or study done on the impact of this project on the local environment and marine life, commercial and recreational fishing, and boating safety, What is being built is an irreversible industrialization of the pristine NJ shoreline by international energy conglomerates and investors who have yet to submit any of the legally required environmental impact assessments and reviews. This legally impermissible omission is especially shocking given the current fragile state of the endangered North American Right Whale. Industrial Energy Development corporations must submit to the same environmental reviews and impact assessments as required by law.  
Robert reinert1/6/2023 7:57:58 AMPlease stop the industrialization of our oceans. Our shore and the Atlantic Ocean are NJ most valuable resource. The height and close proximity to the shore in LBI makes them the highest and closest in the world!!! Let’s not sell our ocean to the highest bidder and let a foreign company desecrate our ocean waters, marine life, and the stunning beauty of the Jersey shore.  
Michael Hurley1/6/2023 7:35:55 AMI oppose the construction of windmills right off our beautiful New Jersey shore especially in Long Beach Island. 
Trevor Doyle1/5/2023 11:14:17 PMI am begging you all to please stop this corrupt buyout of our beautiful pristine shore. This is blatantly benefiting a few people to line their pockets with money from oil/gas companies masquerading as clean energy. It couldn’t be more obvious how detrimental to our environment and communities this plan to build an industrial city of Chrysler building sized structures on our shores. This is literally making me sick to think this can actually happen. There are other ways for these politicians, officials, NGOs, and companies to make money. We do not need to harm our environment and shore communities to make money. NJ already gets a bad rap for the industrial north so we should be very careful turning the rest of our shores into an industrial park. I strongly request we consider the environment and other people before we sellout our last vestiges of nature.612A7761-1B0A-47E6-8416-312CF46099F9
Mary Smith 1/5/2023 10:52:23 PMI am against off shore wind turbines polluting our beautiful coast. The expense involved to install and maintain and repair, the destruction of shell beds and the natural habitat of the marine mammals, including the endangered North American Right Whale cannot take place. Environmental studies have not been done, these turbines are already obsolete compared to the advances that have been made with nuclear energy. Stop wasting money and putting this country into further debt. Until ALL countries use alternative energy, the results you think you’ll achieve will fall short. Leave our beaches as a source of tranquility with beautifully, endless views. Let migrating sea life and birds live. Stop the insanity.  
Noël Baumann1/5/2023 8:40:29 PMI strongly oppose the wind turbines. It is too close to shore and the effects of them for our marine wildlife have not been adequately studied. It will discourage tourism. Who wants to look out at a horizon with HUGE turbines??????!!! This is a mistake that the people of NJ will pay for. Let’s be honest this is proposed to make people money, not help our environment.  
John Sloat1/5/2023 8:39:08 PMThere is clearly a problem with the rushing to place wind turbines off the coast of New Jersey. I think everyone would agree the long term dependence on fossil fuels needs to change however, trying to fix one problem by creating another that will negatively impact marine life, marine ecosystems and scenic beauty is obviously not the answer either. This clearly is about MONEY as demonstrated by the behind the scenes way Orsted, the BPU and others have gone out of their way to keep the public in the dark until it’s too late. Also interesting is Goldman Sachs interest in it given the players involved. Why have New England states, and many islands and townships along the coast have said no to this, because it is not a sound plan for long term energy production. This needs to stop now and the people in New Jersey and the country need to be told why this makes sense, shown the science and let us VOTE - we are a democracy. 
Jacqueline sloat1/5/2023 8:12:00 PMI am opposed to these wind turbines. It’s funny how you are pushing for a better environment and these are doing the exact opposite. Please no!  
Darlene Molinari1/5/2023 7:34:04 PMI am opposed to the massive wind turbine project 9 miles off LBI because there has been no impact study done on the affected coastal communities, tourism, home values, precious marine wildlife, and the fishing industries. The endangered right whale’s migration path goes thru the selected location. The windfarm construction and ongoing sounds will impact the endangered whale’s ability to safely migrate. There are only 350 left and 70 reproductive females. In addition, there are thousands of other sea creatures and birds that will be negatively impacted. The windfarm will industrialize our island located only 9 miles away in full constant view. These massive units will be over 1,000 feet tall and lighted at night. This close in, extreme location will ruin the pristine ocean view and affect tourism. Tourism fuels our local businesses and people’s livelihood’s. The extreme close in location does not make sense when other locations much further out are available. Why was this location selected and not others further out? Coastal states other than New Jersey have taken a much more practical and safer path locating these projects further out to sea. I am opposed to this project and its current location. Continue this project in Atlantic City NOT Long Beach Island. Atlantic City is already ruined, it cannot be fixed- continue the project on land there! Do you not care for the wildlife?

How can you all sleep at night is beyond me. Do the right think and drop this. Oh and next time why don’t you advertise this or send taxpayers/property owners actual letters informing them of any meetings. It’s so funny how people are only finding out about your scam meetings via social media.  
Linda Malik1/5/2023 2:34:09 PMI implore you to stop this corrupt plan to build thousands of Chrysler building sized windmills off our precious NJ coast.

Passing bill A5894 AcaAa (2R) in the middle of the night so no local communities could oppose this is extremely alarming. Not only has this been rushed through so no one can oppose this but this will destroy our shore communities and environment. The fact that our BPU is bought off and even wears an Orsted windmill pin to rigged meetings and votes unanimously in favor of the company giving them money is very corrupt. Stop this scam before it goes too far. 
Pete Costanzo1/5/2023 2:14:38 PMPlease don’t sell out our oceans, animals, community and God’s beautiful horizon for money!!

James McCann1/5/2023 10:02:19 AMThe off shore wind program must cease immediately as it conflicts with laws including the National Environmental Policy Act, Endangered Species Act, and Marine Mammal Protection Act. In addition, placing wind turbines 9 miles off the coast at 1047' high is an industrialization of her pristine ocean. This industrialization brings many negative impacts that far outweigh the positives. The negatives are: 1. Negative impact to the visual aesthetics of the shore by placing permanent turbines 9 miles off the coast. The shore line is a natural habitat enjoyed by many for decades. Altering its peaceful beauty enjoyed by so many will alter our golden gem of a coast. 2. Negative impacts to the coast line due to wind turbines stealing wind from reaching the shore line and impacting temperatures and humidity. There will be other impacts that will not be known or are not studied. 3. Lost revenue for tourism due to tourists no longer coming to our beaches because they don't want to view fixed spinning monstrous turbines. The lost revenue will hurt towns and small businesses throughout the shore communities that rely on the warm weather surge and put many out of business. New Jersey's economy will suffer with the lost revenue and ultimately be passed on to property owners and residents of the state in other forms. Tourists come to the coast to enjoy the natural beauty not stare at fixed rotating machines. 4. Pollution from the fluids of the turbines spilling in to the water, numerous maintenance boats and their fluids plus carbon emissions from these boats will pollute our system. We will end up undoing decades of cleaning up our waters in the pursuit of an energy source that pollutes our waters. 5. Marine life will be permanently altered such as the North American Right Whale, on the endangered species list, facing extinction due to these wind turbine projects violation of the laws that are meant to protect them. The federal agencies looking the other way and pretending that the killing of these endangered species is ok is a blatant disregard for the laws put in place to protect these species. Many other sea life will also suffer the consequences of these misguided wind projects. 6. Wind turbine energy is not cost effective and will result in higher electric costs due to the massive expenses involved in building these turbines and their infrastructure. These higher costs will be passed directly to the rate payers. The conversion of many types of equipment will also be passed on to the rate payers creating an additional hardship for many. There are more cost effective sources that are currently in use that will provide New Jersey residents with affordable energy. The BPU needs to protect the citizens of New Jersey and insure that our energy sources are affordable and not creating financial burdens for residents and business. 7. The negative impacts to the local fishing industry will hurt those who earn their living harvesting and selling seafood. The seafood industry will see negative impacts from these wind turbines that will be irreversible from the ocean to the dinner table. We need to protect this industry, the jobs and its important food sources. 8. The lack of the proper environmental studies and research before siting and leasing these areas shows a blatant disregard for the negative impacts in a rush to push this energy source. It seems many laws are being brushed aside in a march to an aggressive push for off shore wind energy that will negatively impact our lives for decades. 9. Coastal navigation for boats will certainly be impacted by this massive industrialization of our ocean. Turbines placed in our ocean close to shore impedes our shipping, fishing and recreational boats. These turbines will create unsafe navigation for many, which may result in tragic accidents with turbines and accidents in avoiding them or altering routes. The BPU needs to protect the citizens of New Jersey and insure that our energy sources are affordable and not creating financial burdens for residents and businesses. In addition, the BPU needs to protect our environment from the negative impacts of off shore wind. BPU must avoid political pressure and stand up for New Jersey residents and businesses by stopping off shore wind and the industrialization of our ocean.

Lukas ansari1/4/2023 6:39:31 PMIt is a terrible idea. These turbines will ruin the island completely. The starry sky which I can only see there will be lost forever for what? Wind turbines are extremely inefficient and are practically useless. They can threaten existing power grids and are usually abandoned after a couple of years, leaving a giant heap of metal to pollute the ocean and continue to disrupt wildlife, the turbines thousands of birds a year and will absolutely obliterate the natural ecosystem held so dear to the island. I believe that putting the turbines off Long beach island is a terrible idea and a waste of a beautiful place. 
Michele Haas1/4/2023 6:15:25 PMPlease move the wind farms at least 35 miles off shore or do not put them in at all.

Whitney Niles1/4/2023 5:49:37 PMAlthough there is currently a need for a renewable source of energy and wind turbines fit that bill, the tremendous ecological impact of placing them along the NJ coastline, specifically along Long Beach Island, should give people pause in making such a decision without sufficient time and evidence. Neither, in my opinion, have been given to such an important task. The ecological impact on our coastline would be so severe, certain species of wildlife wouldn’t recover. Our beautiful coastline would never be the same. We are told to leave the world a better place for future generations, but adding wind turbines would do the exact opposite. Please look into at the very least, moving the turbines farther out, or finding another location for them entirely.  
William Scarcella 1/4/2023 5:40:53 PMI am opposed to the massive wind turbine project 9 miles off LBI because there has been no impact study done on the affected coastal communities, tourism, home values, precious marine wildlife, and the fishing industries. The endangered right whale’s migration path goes through the selected location. The wind farm construction and ongoing sounds will impact the endangered whale’s ability to safely migrate. There are only 350 left and 70 reproductive females. In addition, there are thousands of other sea creatures and birds that will be negatively impacted. The wind farm will industrialize our island, as it will be located only 9 miles away from the coast, in full constant view. These massive units will be over 1,000 feet tall and lighted at night. This close in, extreme location will ruin the pristine ocean view and affect tourism. Tourism fuels our local businesses and people’s livelihood’s. The extremely close location does not make sense when other locations much further out are available. Why was this location selected and not others further out? Coastal states other than New Jersey have taken a much more practical and safer path locating these projects further out to sea. I am opposed to this project and its current location. 
Ann Dubow 1/4/2023 5:36:56 PMOff shore windmills are not eco friendly nor are they a good source for energy just look at Germany, do you people not learn from mistakes from other countries? The best source for energy is fossil fuel and coal I’m all for technology however this technology does not for Europe therefore it will not work here.

Carl Menk1/4/2023 5:13:19 PMTurbines must be moved 45-50 miles of shore to prevent affecting the Right Whale. 350 whales are all that are remaining. Avian death will be tragic. Also affecting endangered migratory birds. The turbines will be a visual blight, damaging our most precious resource, the New Jersey shore line .

Patricia Bombolevicz 1/4/2023 4:38:59 PMPlease consider the following BEFORE you approve the Atlantic Shores off shore wind project. 1. Close proximity to the LBI coast. 2. Harm to the endangered right whale 3. Conflict with laws including the National Environmental Policy Act , Endangered Species Act, and Marine Mammal Protection Act 4. Harm to the LBI economy 5. There has been a huge lack of research about the environmental and commercial impact. I am opposed to the MASSIVE wind turbine project which is ONLY 9 miles off the coast of LBI because there has been NO impact study done on the affected coastal communities, tourism, home values, precious marine wildlife and the fishing industry. Please do not approve this project! 
Claire B Laird1/4/2023 4:19:52 PMWe are an island where many of our settlers were fishermen. We are very proud of our fishing fleets and the men and women who are engaged in this business. Windmills in the near ocean waters will disrupt and endanger the ecosystem. The fishing business will be impacted and not in a good way. The whole world enjoys eating fish. Stop this nonsense. No windmills off our shores ! 
Deirdre Holic1/4/2023 4:12:28 PMI am opposed to the offshore wind turbine plan for the ocean off of LBI. The economy of this lovely, happy island will be negatively effected as well as the beauty, people, environment and wildlife. If there was a proper environmental study done, they would find that the impact will be extremely harmful. Please stop this project. 
Roseann Ambrosio1/4/2023 4:10:48 PMOff shore wind turbine will hurt the environment. It will take away from the fishing industry, the noise will beach whales and dolphins, set them off course, Hurt and kill our birds off the NJ shore. With our storms, it can destroy these windmills, and they would fall into the sea cause catastrophic damage. That’s not all, it will destroy the tourism. The Tourist who come to Long Beach Island, NJ Don’t want to view turbines. How much of these wind turbines are actually going save the community, the people, of the island any money??? With the cost of installing Wind turbines and keeping them maintained is far more expensive than anybody’s electric bill. How are you going to recycle these Turbines once they break down, did anyone think about that? 
Grant Chotkowski 1/4/2023 4:03:39 PMThis wind farm is criminal, it’s going to completely destroy LBI with is ugly scenery, and reduce all property values along with tourism. It may be more money to move the further back in the ocean but that’s no cost to the amount of money LBI will lose once this farm is installed  
Bryce ansari 1/4/2023 3:35:31 PMThe proposed wind farm is absolutely devastating news. I have lived in Long Beach island during the summer since I was a kid, and the abomination that is this proposed industrial nightmare presents threatens everything I treasure about LBI: the beautiful, natural setting and view, the fishing, the natural wildlife such as the whales and birds. It is an absolutely ridiculous proposal, and is an example of the government bending to the will of corporations instead of listening to the people it claims to represent. The wind farms need to either be moved much farther out or cancelled entirely. nobody expect the greedy companies want this.

Wendie Walsh1/4/2023 3:19:05 PMThe end of our existence. Too many and too close. No studies but just want to kill the oceans animals and everyone. Don't let us be fooled as if New York wants the energy let them build on their coastline.  
Terri Bowers1/4/2023 2:56:32 PMMy family has own a home on LBI since 1972. This place is our heart and soul with a plethora of memories which continue to be made to date. Our serenity is the beach.

Further, observing the sea and land wildlife is also extremely exciting and in itself creates enthusiasm, learning opportunities, and meaningful memories.

Theresa Kuiken1/4/2023 1:16:09 PMPLEASE move them 30 miles out to not disrupt the wildlife or the picturesque area. It’s possible to have wind energy and not be so disruptive. Do the right thing and get great PR for future opportunities. Everybody wins. Thank you.  
Jason Zebrowski1/4/2023 12:43:25 PMPlease do not approve the construction of the offshore wind farm in the state of NJ. I enjoy all of the beaches from Sandy Hook to Cape May and honesty the beaches and pine barrens are the only think keeping me and my family in the state of NJ. Constructing 9th century technology which requires the same amount of energy to build and operate as they will produce for their usable life off shore is not only a waste, but a desecration to the natural beauty of the coastline. This effort will harm the endangered Right Whale and destroy the tourism economy for our coastal communities. There is no reason to approve this energy generation project for a zero sum game.

Tanya Wyant1/4/2023 12:07:22 PM There are over 8,000 subscribers of social media sites fighting to prevent offshore wind and our oceans from failed wind farm development. The negative impact on our ecosystems, noise pollution, fishing industry and marine life is evident based on the research. There has been little to no transparency to the public regarding the process and its impact. We love the jersey shore, its a place with clean beaches, abundance of wild life and where memories are made for families and generations to come. There are other ways to produce energy than polluting our natural resource - the ocean and endangering wild life. In addition wind energy isnt sustainable financially nor environmentally and save LBI has provided the research showing the outcomes and lingering concerns. We will continue to be against this initiative and hope that the administration recognizes the damage this will cause. The communities should have a voice and we are speaking loud and clear. Save our oceans TW 
Trevor 1/4/2023 11:44:15 AMI implore you to stop this corrupt plan to build thousands of Chrysler building sized windmills off our precious NJ coast. It is blatantly obvious that Orsted(DONG energy) and the other OSWs have paid off our politicians, Universities, NGOs, and state officials. Passing bill A5894 AcaAa (2R) in the middle of the night so no local communities could oppose this is extremely alarming. Not only has this been rushed through so no one can oppose this but this will destroy our shore communities and environment. The fact that our BPU is bought off and even wears an Orsted windmill pin to rigged meetings and votes unanimously in favor of the company giving them money is very corrupt. Stop this scam before it goes too far.

Greg Cudnik1/4/2023 11:23:24 AMPlease slow down and allow the offshore wind energy industry mature at a responsible way. The speed and massive scale taking place is out pacing science. These action are not reversible and the environment, wildlife and ratepayers are in grave danger. First an updated feasibility study must be completed and only then an NJ test pilot project of 10-50 turbines 30 miles offshore (Hudson South Call Area) should be done. I strongly disagree and find major issues with the way the state, fed and developers are moving forward at break neck speed. I do not support the idea of NJ's 3rd solicitation.

Joseph Schmidt1/4/2023 10:49:14 AMI do not want large wind turbine machines on our shores which take away from the natural habitat. Are there better units that don't have the environmental problems that the large wind turbines have? Years ago, the company Honeywell made a small wind turbine generator that was designed to fit on top of a residential house. 
Andrew W Maron1/4/2023 10:28:52 AMThis project conflicts with multiple laws, including the National Environmental Policy Act, Endangered Species Act, and the Marine Mammal Protection Act There has been no comprehensive assessment or study done on the impact of this project on the local environment and marine life, commercial and recreational fishing, and boating safety, What is being built is an irreversible industrialization of the pristine NJ shoreline by international energy conglomerates and investors who have yet to submit any of the legally required environmental impact assessments and reviews. This legally impermissible omission is especially shocking given the current fragile state of the endangered North American Right Whale. Industrial Energy Development corporations must submit to the same environmental reviews and impact assessments as required by law.

Susan Carril1/4/2023 10:16:50 AMDo not allow the building of offshore wind farm! Threat to wildlife, threat to fishing industry, no proven success, threat to tourism industry. Very low risk reward/reward ratio. Put a stop to it now. 
John Creel1/4/2023 9:37:53 AMAs a homeowner in both Union and Ocean counties, I object to the wind projects off the NJ coast as currently proposed.

Kathryn Nguyen1/4/2023 7:32:47 AMPlease do not fast track wind power at the cost of our environment. We need to stop and fully analyze the true ramifications before we add more irreversible problems to our world and local community. We are rushing this for the sake of creating trendy renewable power, however, we as a society have failed to look wholistically at the problem of why we have such increases in energy demand. These windmills are NOT A PANACEA, but a very mistaken, very temporary, “feel good" that will decimate what is already a fragile and injured ecosystem in our coastal waterways. The issue is renewable energy is NOT the answer. Reducing demand is. Every time any citizen does a dumb Environmental move, it costs us. For example: Single-use water bottles should be banned from all public places and all public schools. (This also goes for disposable silverware/place settings.). The environmental pull* (a term clarified in The Essential Guide to Understanding Sustainability) is ENORMOUS and requires we keep using wayyyy more energy and resources than we need to, by magnitude! Potable tap is a TRUE GODSEND! And we undermine this tremendously with bottled water. There are many other simple societal habit changes that would reduce our society’s harm to the environment by magnitude and thus lower our society’s overall demand for MORE and MORE machine-generated power. There is a desperate need for people to understand the larger scope of environmental issues. This desperate situation has driven me and two high-school seniors to devoting last year to writing a book, "The Essential Guide to Understanding Sustainability", it defines terms that make sustainability a quantifiable science, so that true and correct environmental reforms can address the terrible harm we are continually inflicting on our environment. Please understand, we environmentalists know what we are talking about with this concern. Let us look at these problems of energy overconsumption, material production overconsumption, the disposable mindset, and the crisis of landfill multiplication, with a more realistic solution- one that address the problem, not unintentionally exacerbates it.

Bonnie Parks1/4/2023 6:22:50 AMInstead of wrecking the coastline, how about REDUCING the need for energy? Start by banning all non-medical, single-use plastics and all styrofoam, such as single-use school lunch trays and to-go containers. And don't even get me started on public transportation... there is almost none.

Lou Ann Caldwell 1/3/2023 10:41:19 PMTo whom it may concern: You have no authority to make decisions regarding tOcean Wind 1. You were not elected by the citizens of New Jersey. You do not represent us. Gov. Murphy’s scheme is unconstitutional. We have a right to choose whether we want this folly or not. Gov. Murphy took our rights away by getting rid of the Home Rule Charter. Gov. Murphy is compromised by being a part owner in this fraud on our ocean, our fishermen, our coastline, all the shellfish, plankton, whales and fish who will cease to reproduce and or die from the warmer sea, the noise vibration which will disorient the fish and whales to die and or beach themselves, as seen in the last month, 8 whales to be exact, Our Jersey shore line provides 48.6% of the state’s budget. Where will NJ get that kind of income when the tourists stop coming because they don’t like looking or listening to whirling windmills or swimming among dead fish? When those who have rental properties that can’t pay their mortgages, towns die. Gov. Murphy is and you are and will be responsible for this. This entire charade is corrupt, full of graft and collusion. The end result would have New Jerseyans paying three times their regular electric bills while all of you fill your pockets.  
Annie Arcid1/3/2023 10:08:43 PMI am opposed to the massive wind turbine project 9 miles off LBI because there has been no impact study done on the affected coastal communities, tourism, home values, precious marine wildlife, and the fishing industries. The endangered right whale’s migration path goes through the selected location. The wind farm construction and ongoing sounds will impact the endangered whale’s ability to safely migrate. There are only 350 left and 70 reproductive females. In addition, there are thousands of other sea creatures and birds that will be negatively impacted. The wind farm will industrialize our island, as it will be located only 9 miles away from the coast, in full constant view. These massive units will be over 1,000 feet tall and lighted at night. This close-in, extreme location will ruin the pristine ocean view and affect tourism. Tourism fuels our local businesses and people’s livelihoods. The extremely close location does not make sense when other locations much further out are available. Why was this location selected and not others further out? Coastal states other than New Jersey have taken a much more practical and safer path locating these projects further out to sea. I am opposed to this project and its current location.

There are only 350 left and 70 reproductive females. In addition, there are thousands of other sea creatures and birds that will be negatively impacted. Boats will be restricted to under 10 knots off the coast in order to save the endangered whale. The new vessel strike reduction rule, from the NOAA, would include smaller 35- to 65-foot vessels and stretch from the coast out to 100 miles in some areas. Construction of this massive wind farm would most certainly be counter to what the NOAA is trying to achieve. The wind farm will industrialize our island, as it will be located only 9 miles away from the coast, in full constant view. These massive units will be over 1,000 feet tall and lighted at night.

Christopher G Mendla1/3/2023 6:12:51 PMI strongly object to the proposed wind farms nine miles out. Something smells badly with this. If you are trying to kill the shore communities, this would be a great start. Also, who will clean up after a Cat 4 or 5 hurricane rips through or a nor'easter deposits a couple of tons of ice on each turbine? Are people standing in the wings ready to scarf up properties when the values drop like a rock? I would not doubt that.

Deborah Burns1/3/2023 3:59:25 PMI strongly oppose the placement of 357 wind turbines 9 miles off the Long Beach Island Coast! I have been visiting the island for over 59 years and the last thing I want to look at while sitting on the beach are wind turbines. This is definitely going to drive the people who love the beach further south to vacation. And what are these turbines going to do to the Right Whales and all the birds off shore? Couldn’t they be placed 30 miles off shore? On a clear day I can see Atlantic City from Pearl Street beach so I know these turbines are certainly going to destroy the beautiful view of the ocean. This is certainly not going to benefit the rental of homes on the island. Especially when I pay thousands of dollars to rent every summer. Delaware beaches and the Outer Banks might attract a lot more people who normally would rent on LBI. Keep the wind turbines off the NEW JERSEY coast!

Robert Van Norman1/3/2023 11:48:01 AMI would like my comments recorded that I am against all of the wind / turbine projects off the NJ coast. It is concerning how much damaged the installation and ongoing operating will do to our environment, sea life, tourism, and views to our citizens. This wind farm is being installed in an endangered whale migration path and the drilling for installation will harm the sea bed and all existing creatures. There have been minimal studies to what the emf for the transmission lines will do to the sea life. At the same time many studies have concluded that the sight of the turbines will impact tourism and visits to an area. The jersey shore survives on tourism and many jobs / incomes rely on this. I also want to point out that the turbines are anything but green. They need oil in order to spin and can often time leak into the ocean below. The trips needed by helicopters and ships to install and maintain these turbines will offset any benefit that this "green" energy provides. Not to mention that no energy is generated when there is no wind, or too much wind. This project needs to be stopped and a more sensible approach to green energy should be taken.  
Claire Annechini1/3/2023 11:21:37 AMI greatly oppose the windmill project. They are much too close to the island and will do much damage to our environment  
Sharon McGovern1/3/2023 11:15:44 AMNo one can deny that offshore wind may reduce greenhouse gas emissions. But the placement of the wind turbines needs to be examined in further detail, so that it is done sensibly - with less detrimental impact to the tourism and fishing industries of NJ and minimal disturbance to the marine mammals which live off of our coast. Real science and biology needs to be used in making these critical decisions that will have huge impacts on land and sea. In addition to sensibly placed turbines, BPU needs to ensure that the off shore wind companies are held accountable to their commitments, and that these commitments can actually be attained and measurable - to ensure contract performance. These off shore wind companies should also provide a guarantee for the amount of energy they will deliver and what happens when they cannot deliver as proposed. NJ tax payer should not be held responsible for their shortfall. This project conflicts with multiple laws- the National Environmental Policy Act, Endangered Species Act, and the Marine Mammal Protection Act - yet no comprehensive assessment has been done to determine the turbines effects on local environment and marine life, commercial and recreational fishing, and boating safety. The proposed placement of the turbines off of the NJ coast also conflicts with the migratory path of several whale species, including the Right Whale, which is on the endangered species list. It has been confirmed by experts that the placement of the turbines within 10 miles of the shore, would also result in reduced shore breeze, lesser waves, higher air temperature and humidity. Noise from construction pile driving and continual turbine operation will also be audible at the shore. These turbines need to be placed further away from the coastline to protect the beachgoers, protect the marine life and fishermen and in the process, being further out at sea, could actually realize a greater wind energy potential in terms of meeting Governor Murphy's wind energy goals. The people of NJ are all generally in favor of Green Energy solutions, it is essential to the survival of our planet. This project is neither green, efficient, or cost effective for the hard working residents of the state. 
Kara Fic1/3/2023 11:08:25 AMThe wind farm as proposed is an environmental disaster. Gov Murphy removed the rights of towns to participate in the decision making process and is misleading the public on the tragic consequences such a project would have on our community.Each of the proposed 1000 foot turbines which would be 9 feet off our coastline contain 1600 gallons of transformer oil. These turbines are manufactured overseas by a foreign company with a terrible track record and similar projects in elite coastal towns have been banned.

Lisa Hatch1/3/2023 10:47:57 AMBPU, I am writing in regards to the proposed wind turbine project off the coast of LBI. I am very concerned about so many issues that this project proposes. We can not allow anyone to industrialize New Jersey's most precious commodity, out oceans. The ecosystem is already facing so many challenges to survive and we should be looking for ways to improve the challenges we already face and not add to the problem. This will forever change our coastline. Is there a plan to upkeep these windmills that will be constantly battering saltwater. As they corrode will they be maintained. Will this effect the fishing industry off our shores? Will this effect the whale, dolphin and saline populations? This project conflicts with multiple laws, including the National Environmental Policy Act, Endangered Species Act, and the Marine Mammal Protection Act There has been no comprehensive assessment or study done on the impact of this project on the local environment and marine life, commercial and recreational fishing, and boating safety, What is being built is an irreversible industrialization of the pristine NJ shoreline by international energy conglomerates and investors who have yet to submit any of the legally required environmental impact assessments and reviews.

Trisha DeBevoise1/3/2023 10:37:46 AMI am vehemently opposed to this project, which conflicts with multiple laws, including the National Environmental Policy Act, Endangered Species Act, and the Marine Mammal Protection Act.

Kristina Tool 1/1/2023 8:38:51 AM I am strongly opposed to the close-in location of this project and I hope that the NJBPU will consider the clear evidence presented on the severe and negative impacts that this project will have on marine life, the fishing industry, the tourism industry, and the incredibly beautiful natural resource that the Jersey Shore offers to many. Growing up on LBI, I recall polluted waters, medical waste problems and far fewer wildlife sightings. Through much effort, the Atlantic Ocean and the Jersey Shore experience has been restored to allow humans and wildlife to enjoy the setting we are so fortunate to share. Now it seems that some people want to sell this setting to the highest bidder, glossing over the destruction it will cost. And it all seems so puzzling, since by moving the wind turbines out, many of these negative impacts will be reduced, allowing for both alternative energy sources while maintaining the habitats for whales, birds, and other sea life, and Hhelping the fishing and tourism industry to continue. The fact that a fund is being considered to offset the loss to the fishing industry already contradicts the original messaging that these wind farms would help all. I also have not seen any consideration given to what the light and noise pollution will do to the environment. Studies already indicate that local temperatures will INCREASE with this close-in presence. And while many energy company representatives and the governor try to dismiss the visual impact as negligible and only visible on clear days ( as if that makes it ok to ruin a sunny day), the official renderings from the developer themselves indicate otherwise. In addition, nothing has been shared on the impacts of maintenance, damage to turbines, hurricane strength storms, and eventual decommissioning plans. All appears highly suspicious and makes me wonder who are working so hard to hide the real story from #NJ citizens. The NJBPU has the opportunity to mitigate the damage that is becoming increasingly evident by moving this wind farm to at least 35 miles out, in an area already zoned for these farms. Like other countries and states that seek to protect their coast, it is extremely frustrating and suspicious as to why NJ leadership does not do the same.

Dennis Slutzky 12/31/2022 12:40:11 PMI strongly oppose the destruction of our shore environment and communities by building thousands of Chrysler sized windmills 8.7 miles off our coast.

The simple fact is that no windmills should be built at sea. While it’s an alternative form of energy it is not environmentally friendly. The construction of them and maintenance needed with diesel burning vessels and grease and oils to upkeep the windmills will directly affect our waters. In addition, marine life will be devastated. We are not ready to have consistent dead birds, whales, dolphins, and fish wash up on our beaches due to this project. Besides the leaking of pollutants, the frequencies generated will destroy marine mammal migration and deplete and devastate critically enraged species and put more in that category. This past fall we saw and abundance of marine life include large numbers of whales on a daily basis. This project risks eliminating our local habitat for manny many species. We are putting the beauty of our beloved home environment at risk of catastrophic damage that will be irreversible. This project is very irresponsible and should be stopped immediately. What is going to happen when another hurricane sandy hits. Or a huge nor Easter. With the recent developments of future energy solutions like nuclear fusion we should not be looking at a project that destroys the environment and our home. Nobody wants to view these hideous structures off our pristine beaches. Affecting boating, businesses, and property values. This is our beautiful home! PLEASE PLEASE STAY AWAY!!!!!

Taylor Stokes12/31/2022 1:43:21 AMWorst idea yet let's think this through  
Alexander Ostergren12/30/2022 11:47:15 PMConcerning Bill A5894 AcaAa (2R) It seems like the BPU now has the authority to seize land that does not belong to them on behalf of corporations, like Ørsted, with impunity from local governing bodies. I question the motivations of all public servants seeking to grant the BPU such authority. The idea that NJ citizens are best served by undermining the authority of their own local governments is completely absurd. Why would the BPU need the power to overrule the objections from local governments? There can only be one answer. Because objections are expected. It is plainly obvious that this legislation is meant to allow companies like Ørsted to use New Jersey's land and sea in a way its residents don't approve of. The public servants that wrote and passed this legislation actively sought to undermine the people they represent. There is no other way to interpret their actions. No one taking these sorts of actions in preparation for a project is remotely trustworthy. This alone is enough reason to oppose the wind farm's construction.

Susan Reed12/30/2022 9:25:10 PMAs a homeowner in Ocean City, I am against the turbines for many reasons. They will destroy the natural sealife as well as the scenic views.

More research is needed to study the long term effects of the turbines.

Suzanne Hornick12/30/2022 7:10:45 PMPlease stop the plans for any offshore wind projects until we have all the facts. This is an experimental project with no real life data to support the efficiency, durability or safety. As more scientific experts NOT being paid by the wind industry are voicing their concerns about the potentially devastating environmental effects we need to take notice! Let’s do the research first then if viable, start slowly to see how this works. New technologies are coming along daily that don’t bring with them the very significant risks that are part of offshore wind. We can always add more turbines but we can never bring back extinct animals once we’ve killed them. The Right Whale is an important part of our ecosystem. It helps clean the ocean as well as provides nutrition for many things that are part of our food chain! Our national symbol, the Bald Eagle, should not be put in jeopardy for this or any other reason and according to the DEIS thousands could be slaughtered! That’s unacceptable. Orsted is withholding critical information we as tax payers should have. Specifically the cost to go around the island of Ocean City rather than through it. It’s the BPU’s responsibility to ensure that the NJ Ratepayer is getting the best utility service for the very best price. That is not currently happening. It seems as though the BPU is more concerned with the special interests of foreign companies, foreign governments and their stock holders, including Gov. Murphy than they are with the people of NJ they are supposed to be representing the best interest of. The bias of the BPU was especially evident in the last zoom meeting where I was not only personally insulted by BPU personnel but my private email was read out to the public! The people who did that should have been made to personally apologize! They were not. I would like that part of the meeting placed in the public record. I noticed it was removed from the recording published. Below I am going to list many of my concerns to date with the plan for offshore wind in no particular order. I’m happy to provide the BPU with my sources upon request. This will cause the death or maiming of many species due to the construction process, excessive noise, deoxygenation of the ocean, seismic activity, emfs, benthic disruption , destruction of hunting/feeding grounds more. Endangered species including but not limited to ; Birds-Bald Eagle, Red Knot, Piping Plover, Roseate Tern, Reptiles-Bog, Hawksbill, Loggerhead, Leatherback and Ridley turtles. Mammals – Right Whale, Sei, Sperm, Humpback, Blue and Fin Whales, Bats. Fish – Atlantic and short nose sturgeon and all of our shellfish but especially those we know will be deformed or killed due to emf exposure. EMF exposure to larval lobsters study indicated they die. That is a huge industry for Cape May Co. We can’t afford to lose it. EMF exposure in humans – causes death, cancer, miscarriage, birth defects, dementia, headaches and more. Adding this to our coastal environment will destroy our coastal communities and the safety of our homes along with our quality of life. These turbines will severely damage our tourism, hospitality and fishing industries on which most of Cape May and Atlantic counties rely. This will negatively impact our quality of life by increasing our noise and light pollution. Studies have shown that the noise and light flicker can among other things induce seizures in humans. The significant increase in pollution to our ocean, beach, bay and wetlands may be insurmountable. Energy costs will increase exponentially. There is so much wrong with each of these windfarm plans I can’t imagine any sane thinking person supporting this. Since there are some in our government who do I have to ask myself WHY? What could motivate anyone to something so clearly destined to destroy our state? I have my thoughts on that and I’ll be happy to discuss it again at the next public hearing. Please stop this now!  
Max borchert12/30/2022 6:47:24 PMI strongly oppose the destruction of our shore environment and communities by building thousands of Chrysler sized windmills 8.7 miles off our coast.

Christopher Policelli12/30/2022 6:33:49 PMI strongly oppose this “project” that consists of unproven technology with no regard to what the consequences are to our environment. There is no urgency for this and spending tax payer money to line the pockets of corrupt politicians like Murphy, should be against the law. The fact this is even a discussion in uncertain times shows you there are no boundaries for corrupt politicians and their constituents. Thank you, Dr. Christopher Policelli.

N D’sandro12/30/2022 6:10:07 PMhttps://protectourcoastnj.com/ Please read this website as it explains in details many of the reasons I am adamantly opposed to the offshore wind projects proposed off the Jersey coast. I believe these projects will have a detrimental impact on whales dolphins marine life endangered and threatened species- fisheries - concerned about pollution EMFs infrasound on humans and mammals alike-tourism real estate our livelihoods recreation - this will destroy our communities and way of life. Stop this now - there’s nothing green about these projects. Wake up and do the right thing- stop this project from moving foward- I speak on behalf of all those opposed neighbors and friends and residents of NJ. thank you.

Leslie long 12/30/2022 5:37:03 PMThese wind turbines are not good for this area and should not be allowed to progress. Please have it know that I am 110% against this project and anything that harms the ocean in any way. This project screams greed and the disregard in respect to laws and protections in place for years ie Green Acres, Wetlands, Endangered Species, etc is completely criminal.

Kirk Larson 12/30/2022 4:19:24 PMI stand against the destruction of our great oceans. The habitat for all these marine animals is at stake. Our ocean is a lifeline for all species and should not be industrialized. Very few will profit from this. Why not put it on a ballot and see if people want the ocean and it habitats destroyed by foreign companies. This is a major violation of the Jones act.  
nancy pino12/30/2022 3:18:57 PMI am against having these massive industrialized wind projects so close to shore. There are NUMEROUS HEALTH HAZARDS associated w the infrasound emitted from turbines that can affect both humans and animals. The proper environmental studies have not been done and the North American Right Whale along w other whales migrate right through that area we just don't know the effects these huge turbines will have on the marine mammals. This lease area is right in the middle of clamming and scallop boats fishing areas and will be detrimental to the fishing industry. This will destroy property values and tourism. The entire project needs to be moved out past 33 miles. 
Heather Weiss-Dunne12/30/2022 2:20:33 PMIn the age of people doing everything they can to preserve the environment and nature around us, this project is doing the complete opposite. This is already effecting sea life, as evidenced by the sudden death of whales along the coast. What will happen to the entire ecosystem in the area? Why have this off the coast of NJ, one of the most populated places where people flock to the shores in droves over the summer? The lack of transparency with this project is the most concerning of all. If more residents were aware of all the risks, there would be a complete uproar. Please do not destroy the beautiful coast and all the wildlife who lives there. Once this is done, we will never be able to stop the destruction. Things will never be the same.

Conor Doyle12/30/2022 10:37:46 AMI'm opposed to offshore wind farm. The damage it will impose financially and environmentally is not worth the advertised benefits. The proposed wind farms will be ruining one of the few remaining spots in NJ where one can see the beauty and vastness of nature without human interference. The local economies will be negatively impacted, who rely heavily on tourism. This is a mistake.

Paul M. Kanitra12/29/2022 4:56:14 PMRE: Docket No. QO22080481, Opening of New Jersey’s Third Solicitation for Offshore Wind Renewable Energy Certificates (OREC) Dear Acting Secretary Diaz, On behalf of the residents of the Borough of Point Pleasant Beach, I would like to express my sincere concern regarding the opening of New Jersey’s Third Solicitation for Offshore Wind Renewable Energy Certificates. As the Board is aware, the first OREC solicitation took place in 2018, which was awarded to Orsted for Ocean Wind I. The project proposed to provide 1,100 MW of capacity off the coast of Ocean City, New Jersey. However, local voices were ignored when they opposed the location of this project citing negative impacts to tourism, fishing, and other concerns such as overriding municipal authority for the placement of offshore wind infrastructure and ratepayer increases. Since then, Atlantic Shores and Ocean Wind II were awarded in 2021 for nearly 2,700 MW combined capacity. While Orsted is currently mired in legal complications stemming from local Ocean City opposition to this project which comes at no small cost to the New Jersey taxpayer and ratepayer, the state is soliciting a third round of ORECs. New Jersey is moving too fast and without taking into consideration the local voices whose livelihoods will be most affected by the offshore wind farms. It would be extremely shortsighted for the Third Round to continue without some measurable results of the first two projects. For those reasons and others – such as the negative effect on tourism from the viewshed impacts, the immeasurable carbon footprints of each project, the high costs borne by ratepayers to offset the projects, the destruction of open space for building onshore infrastructure, etc. – I respectfully request that no further action be taken on with regard to the Third Solicitation. Thank you for your time and consideration of this request. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns. Sincerely, Paul M. Kanitra, Mayor Borough of Point Pleasant Beach  
Patrice Tullai12/28/2022 9:09:47 PMI am opposed to this turbine wind farm..These wind farms are funded and constructed with the premise they are “green” and sustainable. They are neither green or sustainable. These machines are highly fossil fuel dependent in both their construction and operation. Firstly the blades for the WindTurbines are manufactured by cutting down and using balsa wood from the Amazon, more specifically Ecuador and Peru. The balsa tree is habitat for Toucans, a threatened and in some cases endangered species. The operation of harvesting the balsa wood is destroys lives of indigenous peoples, it has poisoned the water when they have fished for their livelihood for many many many years. This industry brings pollution, crime, child trafficking, prostitution , conflict and misery. These blades are classified as toxic waste. So when the twenty years are up and they need to be taken down they must be dealt with accordingly. In 2020 Germany was seeking to deal with 1.35 million tons of old wind turbine blades. It cost too much in energy to chop them up. This is just for the blades of the wind turbines. Next we have the copper and the other rare earth minerals. They are highly dependent on fossil fuels for their extraction and also leave behind poison, death and misery. The wind turbines require hundreds of gallons of fossil fuel derived oils to operate and must be changed every nine months. I am sure are leaks, I’ve seen videos of blades flying off and exploding and causing major damage, We deserve better. The wildlife deserve better. They are doing what they are suppose to do, live in harmony with the planet. The Northern Right Whake is an incredibly important specie. To consider ANY of them “incidental take”, is hubris and foolish, or may I say, so rule and stupid. Whales' fecal plumes (a gassy form of underwater poop) give back to the environment in the form of ocean fertilizer . Whale feces also improve the health and ability of the ocean to remove carbon pollution. So the Northern Right Whale helps maintain balance and fights for the planet and its well being. Let us do the same and NOT destroy the planet with this turbine wind farm. I could go on writing many pages why this project is a bad idea., please contact me if you’d like to know more.  
Carl van Warmerdam12/28/2022 8:17:59 PMLimitations of 'Renewable' Energy While the wind itself may be “renewable,” the turbines, the raw materials that go into making them, and the lands and oceans they impact certainly are not. It is misleading to not realize they require enormous amounts of energy and natural resources through extraction, manufacture and installation. Outsourcing those externalities will only exacerbate climate change. They require tons of carbon emissions to produce so they are not carbon free and not green. They should be more appropriately termed energy capturing devices. To do not so is greenwashing. They are not alternatives to the energy and ecological crisis, but rather a part of it. They do not “replace” natural gas and fossil fuels, not only because the so called “renewable” energy are not as potent an energy source as fossil fuel, but also because they rely on fossil fuel for basic operation. They contribute to the abuse, exploitation and plunder of nature. There are mountains of resources to support this. More dangerously, they lead us to false solutions, putting our non existent energy emission budget into projects which only contribute to the problem. My opinion is we will have used precious, limited resources on a dead end mainly to continue the unsustainable. The energy we use on mining and manufacturing, installation and maintenance of “renewables” will only add on to our energy consumption we currently use and thus there will only be more fossil fuel emissions. The growing wind turbine industry will not provide Americans with cleaner energy. The harms of this undertaking is far worse than any benefits that could be realize. There is lots of work that must be done to prevent calamity from the collapse of functioning ecosystems. Building wind turbines on the Atlantic OCS will only accelerate the demise of the NARW and the ocean that is their home. 
Michelle Miller12/28/2022 3:04:42 PMI object to having wind farms so close to the coastline that they are visible. I am sending in my official rejection of any type of windfarm off the coast of Long Beach Island NJ. 
Linda Barbieri12/28/2022 2:38:27 PMPlease abandon offshore wind project. It is bad for the environment. It is bad for New Jersey.  
Terri McCullagh12/27/2022 9:44:56 PMPlease…no wind farm!! I am 100 percent against it and what it will do to our ecosystem.  
John Gfrorer12/27/2022 7:39:06 PMAs a NJ taxpayer and homeowner I oppose this project until a more thorough EIS is developed. The current draft EIS is in many cases is too vague. I would like to see a more thorough analysis of the cost to benefit of this program. I would like to know if utility rates in NJ will go up or down with this project and by how much . I would like to see a thorough risk analysis for the project. Until these issues are more deeply discussed I oppose the plan. 
Jean Ahart12/27/2022 7:12:28 PMMy family and I have been going to LBI on summer vacations for more than 40 years. We have always appreciated and valued the pristine beaches and unobstructed coastline. The wind turbines will not only detract from the beauty of the ocean view, thereby lowering the value of the properties, but will dredge up the sea floor and completely disrupt, harm and potentially cause a catastrophic imbalance to our sea life. The ripple effect may never be reversible. We urge that an alternative location be considered and a study presented to the public as to the safety of the environment from this new energy source.  
Susan Hiller12/27/2022 6:24:57 PMPlease reconsider the industrialization of the New Jersey Shore. Wind farms are not an efficient or environmentally friendly alternative to nuclear energy. The destruction of our shore is too high a price to pay for the ill-considered plan to force wind energy on the tax payers of NJ. Please do the necessary due-diligence to vet the pros and cons of this policy instead of fast-tracking these developments. It's short-sighted at best and negligent ate worst to move ahead without further research. 
Joshua Jaspan12/27/2022 4:27:37 PMPlease see attached table for the list of hazardous chemicals needed to operate these industrial wind turbines. There is nothing environmentally sound about desecrating our offshore waters with industrial turbines each containing 3,359 gallons of hazardous chemicals, lubricants and fuels that are liable to leak into the ocean without easy or immediate repair. The hazards and costs so clearly outweigh the benefits of this project except to those financially or politically profiting. Before this project move ahead, every NJ Public Official voting in favor as well as individual shareholders of every company or business responsible or profiting from this project moving forward should forego any and all legal protections and be held personally liable to NJ and USA Citizens for any damages, cost overruns and increases in our electric bills attributable to the project for the lifetime of the industrial wind turbines until decommissioning.

Carmela Marucci 12/27/2022 2:56:46 PMI am opposed to turbines 9 miles off our shores. Do not ruin our shoreline.  
Trina Garrett12/27/2022 11:05:41 AM I am a resident of New Jersey and have been all my life. We are 100% against the installation of turbines in our beautiful ocean. Besides being an eyesore to our beautiful ocean we are also concerned with the damages it will do to our marine life, our fishing industry, tourism and the environmental impact it will have as far as excessive flooding these monstrous machines will cause to our island of Long Beach island and the entire coastline. There is endless information that we have read on the negative impact these buildings of metal will cause. How do you look away from all of this? Our shoreline is one of the only things NJ has going for itself. If you take it away there’s not much else holding our community together. Keep the one thing we have to be proud of and that is our coastline! Do not crap it up with metal waiting to rust and fall apart in our beautiful ocean just so you can say you are for “green energy” There are other ways. Stop the lunacy!  
Chuck Musilli12/27/2022 10:27:33 AMCompletely against the proposed windmill project 9 miles off the coast of LBI. Too many negative economic, aesthetic and environmental negatives. Will drive up cost of electricity to customers and have a hugely negative impact on LBI quality of life as well as tourism desirability. Impacts to sea life and birds will be horrific. All for clean energy but this is not the answer. 
Peggy Clark 12/27/2022 10:16:35 AMPlease vote NO! These are proven to be harmful to oceanlife  
Gianna Sgroi12/27/2022 9:38:10 AMOffshore wind turbines are not necessary for many reasons. They will kill surrounding eco-system, take away from the beautiful views many New Jerseyans enjoy, and are unreliable in bad weather. To move from our current working energy platform, to wind turbines for the same of climate change does not prove to be helpful or sustainable. As we saw in Texas, and given that in New Jersey our climate leans toward colder weather that is damaging toward wind turbines, it is safe to say they will not work more often than not, and cause threat of power outages in freezing temperatures and even result death. This is not necessary, not the correct route to take to try to help our climate. Myself along with a lot of other concerned citizens do NOT approve of this. It is a temporary, unreliable, unsustainable and even fraudulent attempt to promote climate improvement. 
Tanya Wyant 12/27/2022 9:09:32 AM There are over 8,000 subscribers and more are joining save LBI and our oceans from failed wind farm development. The negative impact on our ecosystems, noise pollution, fishing industry and marine life is evident based on the research. There has been little to no transparency to the public regarding the process and its impact. We love the jersey shore, its a place with clean beaches, abundance of wild life, land where memories are made for families and generations to come. There are other ways to produce energy than polluting our natural resource - the ocean and endangering wild life. In addition wind energy isnt sustainable financially nor environmentally and save LBI has provided the research showing the outcomes and lingering concerns. We will continue to be against this initiative and hope that the administration recognizes the damage this will cause. The communities should have a voice.  
Alejandro Meseguer12/27/2022 9:02:30 AMWe need to get moving procuring the renewable energy sources that will facilitate subsistence of future generations. New Jersey should do our part and not wait for the day when the Earth can no longer be suitable for human life. Let's get started now!  
Maria Denti- Spinelli12/27/2022 8:45:00 AMThese wind farms will destroy sea life and creatures of the air! Please do not allow this to happen! They don't even provide efficient energy! Please do not allow this to happen to our beautiful shore line. Protect our seas creatures and aviary wildlife!! 
MaryAnne Reinert12/27/2022 8:32:08 AMPlease consider all the objections to these wind turbines close to shore. New Jersey’s greatest natural resource is the Atlantic Ocean and it’s beautiful beaches.  
Andrea Simone12/27/2022 1:16:03 AMI am vehemently opposed to wind turbines being installed off the Ocean City NJ coast. Not only is it hideous to look at but it is an unreliable and expensive form of energy. It’s a threat to our endangered marine life and birds. 
James McCann12/27/2022 12:57:00 AMI am writing to ask that you stop the placement of wind turbines. To date the public has made it clear they do not want wind turbines yet state and federal government continue by ignoring our feelings, comments and lack of support. The industrialization of our ocean will kill endangered species and go against federal laws enacted to protect these species. It is atrocious that the federal government is ignoring their own laws in order to press on with wind turbines. Turbines will leak their fluids and pollute our waters setting back the many years of good work to clean up our waters. The continued solicitations need to stop in order to protect our marine life and environment. BPU you have the power to stop these wind turbines in the best interests of New Jersey residents. Please stop these projects! 
Trevor12/26/2022 11:45:22 PMI am amazed that our state officials are even thinking of letting this corrupt windmill deal go forward. Anybody following this can see how corrupt it is that money and lobbying can allow thousands of thousand foot structures off our beautiful coast. NJ gets a bad rap because of how industrial the north of our state is and we are thinking of spreading that to our middle and southern shores.. this will destroy the charm of our shores.. and the closest point is only 8.7 miles off our coast which will be very very visible on a horizon that has nothing else.. sickening to think a few corrupt politicians can force this blunder on us. Please stop this insanity. Not only is there plenty of proof that the surveys have been killing many whales, but it is obvious the tourism m, fishing, and property values will suffer badly. I’ve talked to several people that have already said they will vacation somewhere else if there are windmills in front of their vacation spot. Please do the right thing. Also, everyone knows this isn’t green, and that us NJ taxpayers should not be subsidizing this.. especially for NY use. If you really care about NJ why not let the local communities vote on this. The obvious answer is because it is corrupt and making money for a few criminals. Be on the right side of history and stop this craziness. Attached is just one example of the survey ship that killed the whale off Atlantic City in the last week.. there are many more examples and anyone that say that’s normal has not lived on the shore because I have not seen a dead whale my whole life up until the tests started a couple years ago. And the other false propaganda is there were no whales before which is nonsense since I’ve seen them with my own eyes on the whale watching boat in Viking village in Barnegat Light when I was younger. The last attachment I added are just some of the payoffs the windmill companies have made to buy off our politicians..F056ACFA-AEA6-45BF-A042-D03557E120EC

Mary Ellen Smith12/26/2022 9:09:06 PMPlease stop the destruction of our ocean. The wind farms are a dated and inefficient way to provide power. The wind farms will not benefit this state or the citizens of this state.  
Jonah Smith 12/26/2022 6:58:02 PMThe Board should be ashamed and embarrassed for allowing this or any offshore wind project to proceed on the New Jersey coast. They have PROVEN to be dangerous, expensive, environmentally damaging, highly visible, and hazardous to New Jersey's economy. Wealthy shore communities all over the country are successfully halting these poorly thought out, valueless boondoggles. Why are you therefore foisting them on the good people of New Jersey??? 
Linda Ciccarelli 12/26/2022 5:40:05 PMCopy and paste Further research needs to go into this! Marine life (the fish, dolphins and whales) will be impacted. Tourism (do people really want to relax at the beach and view these loud ugly wind turbines) no they don’t. Fishing Industry: fishermen will not be able to fish in proximity of these monstrosities. Foreign Companies: why are we allowing these foreign companies to come to our shores to build these. They say they are creating jobs, we can’t even find enough workers to fill jobs, we don’t need their jobs. Who is really behind this? Research: countries that have built these are discovering they are not creating the amount of energy they promised, are expensive to build and run and many now want them gone. What happens when there are cost overruns? Who pays for them? Where is the budget and assumptions to support the budget? Why aren’t rate payers allowed to see this information? What about all the things these wind farm developers are promising? What happens when these promises aren’t kept? What is in place to make Wind Developers accountable? These wind farms are way too close to our coast lines! What are you thinking? Why don’t you see all the damage that will happen to our communities?

Beverly Frantz12/26/2022 4:45:12 PMI am vehemently opposed to the construction of these offshore windfarms at the present time. Further opportunities for public questions, provision of accurate and unbiased research to the public, needs to be provided. Sufficient benefit in terms of energy and ROI vs risks and impacts has not been demonstrated. At the present time, these windfarms: 1. send our business and dollars overseas, creating more OVERSEAS JOBS than they will U.S. jobs. 2. make us MORE DEPENDENT upon foreign governments and entities for equipment, components, and experts (READ: MORE DEPENDENT FOR OUR ENERGY), not less dependent. 3. Do not have the interest of the state's taxpayers in mind. We already pay the highest taxes and utilities that are higher than the national average. How is increasing our energy costs in our best interests? It is not. 4. use massive amounts of FOSSIL FUEL to transport from foreign countries to the US (since we are no longer a manufacturing nation), and further large amounts to transport across the US. I have personally witnessed the transport of this equipment, ONE BLADE at a time, on our nation's highways via huge rigs. This does not include the foundation, the tower, and hub of EACH SINGLE TURBINE that also need to be transported. Transport across the ocean is even more costly in terms of fossil fuel use. 5. are not recyclable by any current means when they break or become obsolete 6. have not been sufficiently studied in terms of impact of offshore turbines on sea life. 7. are in the migration path of already endangered large sea mammals, thereby creating an ecological impact that will be irreversible. 8.impact our locally important fishing industry, as well as a danger to mariners in this area of significant water recreation and travel, This project should be tabled until such time as their benefit vs risk can be sufficiently demonstrated.  
kevin kernan12/26/2022 3:32:41 PM? I ma opposed to all Wind Turbine Ocean Industrialization. ? With turbines that are 853 plus feet tall, this project will be the most visible modern wind project in the world. ? It will have a severe impact on our local economy including: ? Losses in tourism revenue (estimated at $300 million per year). ? Property value losses (ranging from $1 million for ocean fronts to $189k for ocean view homes), with corresponding implications for other property owners. ? Vacation rental losses (55% of previous renters of oceanfront & ocean view properties indicated they would not return if turbines were visible, even if offered an incentive). ? Job losses in multiple areas, including fishing commercial, recreational, hotels, restaurants and related services. Please note that Fish will not cross the underwater power lines. • The current location for this project also has several other important environmental drawbacks: ? There has been no comprehensive assessment of the impact of this project on our environment, as well as commercial and recreational fishing and boating safety. ? The current lease area is in the migration path of the North Atlantic Right Whale -- a highly endangered species with only 360 of these beautiful mammals in existence today. ? It is also in the path of the Piping Plover, a threatened species of bird that nests in the Holgate Wildlife Refuge.  
Kathleen A Dixon 12/26/2022 3:18:28 PMI am totally against this wind project! This will harm the environment versus adding energy. Your organization took away our rights to respond in an open forum and it did not allow us the opportunity to speak about it before starting the project. Not enough testing has been done to show the effects on our fishing, wildlife, etc. The fact that an underground 50 foot wide cable would be put in front of the water pumping station on 35th St. appears to be hampering the water supply because of the EMFC that will be transmitted via the water pumping station to the entire city of Ocean City! We Will be considered a second camp Lejeune, but now will be located in New Jersey! For this type of expensive project, more information needs to be revealed on the effects of these windmills offshore as well as the 50 foot cable being dug underground. 
Linda Ciccarelli 12/26/2022 2:59:36 PMI absolutely oppose the wind farm project due to the lack of endangered species such as the North Atlantic right whales. Additionally this project is destructive to ALL marine life not only the right whales but the humpback and sperm whales that have washed up on our shores, three dead in three weeks. This must be stopped !!! 
beverly marinelli12/26/2022 2:34:10 PMI am totally against this totally WRONG decision to install windmills on the coast of NJ....the reasons are obvious ,should be to you!. This is WRONG,WRONG,WRONG 
John Sloat12/26/2022 2:09:14 PMI really knew nothing about this, even though I own a home at the shore. I feel this needs further research because from what I have researched as a science and marine person, these wind farms will do more harm than good to not only marine life, economy and tourism and the height and short distance to shore will make them seen from the coast. Do you really think these monstrosities are worth the risk. This needs to stop.  
Jan Sloat12/26/2022 1:59:40 PMMore research needs to go into this. They are finding these wind turbines create more damage than they do good. This needs to go to a vote of the people not government cowboys following the money.  
Peggy Holmes12/26/2022 1:31:35 PMAlthough my legal address is in Pa, I reside in Cape May County 6 months of the year. Your ideas to install wind turbines in the Atlantic Ocean, is dreadful. You will disrupt the ocean life, risk danger to fishermen, birds and also the tourism industry that New Jersey needs to survive. You need to reconsider due to all the past failures windfarms have had in the past. There are other sources of renewable energy much safer and more reliable than wind. Please don’t put this blight in NewJersey. 
Michel Cuillerier12/23/2022 12:17:12 PMFor what it's worth, I question the strength of the material ( the plastic compound ) used in the making of the turbine blades? I am concerned about an occurrence of a strong wind gusts affecting that quality of the finished working blades. Will they be turned off during a storm? I'm sure you already covered this situation in your studies herein please indulge me this time with a reference in your notes. 
Kelly Hullihan12/22/2022 8:41:26 AMHalt offshore wind development and lease approvals. There are a multitude of negative environmental, wildlife conservation, real estate value, tourism and rate payor cost issues with all of these offshore wind projects. These coastal offshore wind projects will have a CUMULATIVE negative impact on the entire eastern seaboard and coastal communities. BPU is approving these leases piecemeal intentionally as if your board has no responsibility to evaluate the cumulative effects of all of these wind farms. This is ludicrous and unconscionable. Stop the unsubstantiated propaganda that gargantuan turbines are going to cure the world’s environmental problems. Offshore wind is a unreliable, expensive and problematic science experiment. At the very least, BPU, be honest and transparent with the state’s rate payers.. You have no idea what this will cost me a rate payor, today, tomorrow or 30 years from now. This will undoubtedly increase our energy costs exponentially. Rate Counsel has issued a statement against offshore wind due to projected significant rate increase. What will the decommissioning cost me? What will oil spills from these turbines cost me? There are a multitude of unanswered questions and incomplete analyses surrounding offshore but NJ plows full speed ahead approving leases to foreign companies. Halt these approvals before it is too late! I have listened to numerous BPU hearings and written numerous comments. I am aghast at the process. It is clear to the average citizen that there is a biased and predetermined conclusion in favor of offshore wind. How much have foreign companies contributed politically? This is our treasured ocean, our coastline, the right whales’ home. Stay out of it. History will judge this administration. You will be remembered as the BPU that ruined the Jersey shore for generations to come.  
ROSEANNE SEROWATKA12/17/2022 8:57:28 AMPublic Statement Ocean Wind December 17, 2022 Teddy Roosevelt: His success in preserving our National Parks for the greater good and for generations to come. "Defenders of the short-sighted men who in their greed and selfishness will, if permitted, rob our country of half its charm by the reckless extermination of all useful and beautiful wild things sometimes to champion them ……" Theodore Roosevelt Protector of National Parks Apply this to our beautiful NJ Coastline and seashore with pending turbine assault. Do you want to be responsible for the biggest assault to marine life ever on our Atlantic Coast? Nothing more pure that a child and the family on their annual trip to the beach. Why ruin this? As a Science Education Consultant in NJ and Pa I am concerned about the Science taught in schools that becomes a thread of their lives. Climate Alarmism is being taught in the curriculum that breeds a thinking that ALL GREEN is good. Everyone understands that climate changes. But it is not catastrophic I am going to die tomorrow change. Scientists are beginning to speak up on this fact. We should still continue to look for other sources that are renewable but WIND ENERGY is not efficient, unreliable, expensive and will destroy animals, wildlife and vegetation that will be caught in this mistake both above and below our ocean. Please at least trial this or learn from prior trials whether this is a smart plan or not. Ocean City is not an experimental arena or your lab mice with which to run trials. Living Near the Wind Farm: True Account While I am not really familiar with solar, I live in the middle of a wind farm, and I can tell you that they are not inexpensive. From buying up the land and giving million dollar payoffs to landowners, to laying giant, thick concrete pads to put them on, to manufacturing these behemoths and hauling their parts to the place they will be erected, to putting them up and maintaining them…untold millions of dollars will be spent on something that has a 10 year life span. This summer, our wind farm was out of commission for nearly 3 months due to a transformer that blew and couldn’t be replaced due to supply issues. And this has been a peculiarly windless summer for Kansas. About 90% of the time, there has been no wind or wind under 5 mph. So these wind turbines have not been generating any power for several months, and unless the wind picks up, their capacity is nowhere near being reached. And we who live in the area are paying through the nose for this infrastructure Please read on: Environmentalists Against Windturbines. FB

Mary Smith11/3/2022 12:57:28 PMI am totally against Off Shore Wind and this project looks like it will be one expensive disaster. How many years will it take to realize any return on the exorbitant costs involved? Turbines are being improved upon constantly and these structures will be obsolete before their short lifespan is reached. Don't forget about the 1400 page Environmental Impact Study. The concern that the North Atlantic Right Whale, which migrates off the coast, will become extinct. If each turbine structure requires 20 detonations for installation, and considering the distance that sound travels in water, this whole project is going to destroy our Ecosystem. We have migrating birds, fish, whales, seals, dolphins that will be severely impacted. Also, the shell fish beds will be destroyed, not to mention the livelihood of the many fishing businesses. These turbines are loaded with fuel and prone to lightning strikes, further risking harm to sea life, which appears to be totally disregarded in this project. I do not want to see turbines off the beautiful coast of the New Jersey shore. Please to not destroy it! 
Alejandro Meseguer10/28/2022 7:18:00 PMRegarding consideration of a mesh networking, I recommend it be part of the project as early as feasible. The topic should balanced with neighboring states as to allow for future interconnectivity regionally, and at the national level. Security should be of utmost importance should a network be implemented. Generally, I'm in favor of implementing a mesh network here in New Jersey that will facilitate communications with other states. Thank you of your efforts.
