These Members of Congress are among those advocating for @BOEM to engage actively with the commercial fishing industry in decision-making around West Coast offshore wind projects. Thank you to @RepSchrader, @HerreraBeutler, @RepDerekKilmer & @RepPeterDeFazio! @SeaHarvesters

Proud signatory to this important request!

We joined 60+ fisheries associations today to request $ for @NOAAFisheries to mitigate offshore wind's impacts to fisheries data collection and expand cooperative research on its environmental effects https://t.co/62kulvRblX

Even though there may be no tsunamis generated by last night's 8.2 quake in AK hitting Wa, Or, or Ca - expect mixed up current or surge in many ports/harbors up and down the coast.

If fishing gear does bcome entangled w offshore wind equipment “that is an extremely dangerous situation in terms of sinking a boat or loss of life”, said Daphne Munroe, a shellfish ecologist at Rutgers in NJ.

As Biden goes big on offshore wind, fishermen fear for their future

Fishermen say their concerns, from safety issues to how offshore wind will alter the ocean environment, aren’t being meaningfully considered by regulators @RODAfisheries @PCFFA2

[PCFFA @PCFFA2]

@MichaelOwensMD @tveitdal @RODAfisheries On the west coast, it is anticipated the turbines will be floating, thus the likelihood of any artificial reef-like benefits is quite low.
