An offshore wind development project off the coast of Morro Bay was halted by the U.S. Navy in 2018 because the designated area conflicted with naval operations, but the project is back on track after reducing its size. On May 25, U.S. Rep. Salud Carbajal (D-Santa Barbara) joined the White House in announcing an agreement on the size and scope of leasing to allow for offshore wind development. The agreement identifies an area of development approximately 17 to 40 miles off the coast of northern San Luis Obispo County. click to enlarge Image Courtesy Of Salud Carbajal OFF SHORE A wind farm project off the coast of Morro Bay is back on track after a two year halt by the U.S. Navy.
