US to Review Wind Project Off Ocean City

The US Dept. of the Interior will conduct an environmental review of an energy-producing wind project proposed by US Wind about 10 nautical miles offshore of Ocean City, MD, and Sussex County, DE. US Wind submitted the $8.7M winning bid to develop the Maryland lease area in a 2014 lease sale. A 30-day public comment period runs through July 8, 2022, as Interior determines the scope of its environmental review.
