David Ciochetto, an engineer with the Rhode Island Coastal Resources Management Council, alleged that the developer of the SouthCoast Wind Farm has made “blaring, misleading statements, if not outright lies” about where the project stands with the CRMC, one of which was confirmed by Rhode Island Current. The allegations were shared in a June 29 email with Emma Rodvien, coordinator for the Rhode Island Energy Facility Siting Board, which is also reviewing the project. The emails were shared publicly on July 3.
