A 12-year-old state law designed to encourage ocean energy development and reduce Maine’s dependence on fossil fuels set the stage for the current debate over offshore wind power sites.
Part of a 2009 law called the Ocean Energy Act established wind test areas in state waters, which extend 3 miles from the mainland. Those test areas were selected based on criteria that included optimum wind speeds and water depths, as well as attempts to minimize conflicts with existing marine uses such as fishing and seabird nesting. ....

The moratorium would focus commercial-scale wind power development in federal waters of the Gulf of Maine, where an offshore wind research project is planned.
As fishing interests geared up early Wednesday for a rally against offshore wind power development, the administration of Gov. Janet Mills introduced legislation to create a 10-year ban on new projects in state waters.
The proposed moratorium would set aside state waters, which extend up to three miles from shore, for fishing and recreation. It would focus commercial-scale wind project development in federal waters of the Gulf of Maine, where the Mills administration has proposed a first-in-the-nation research array to study floating offshore wind technology. ....

Biden's Call For Rapid Offshore Turbine Development Faces Stiff Headwind From Maine Fishermen

Lobstermen and their families attend a rally to protest Maine Gov. Janet Mills support for offshore wind projects, Wednesday, April 28, 2021, in Augusta, Maine.
Last week, President Joe Biden told federal regulators that to combat global warming, they should speed up the deployment of offshore wind-energy turbines, with the goal of supplying enough to power 10 million homes by the end of this decade.
Wind power advocates in Maine say that ratifies their argument that the state must get into the game now or get left behind. But the White House directive is also amplifying fears among fishermen that they re the ones who will be left behind. ....
