In a letter dated June 26, the entire Massachusetts delegation asked the U.S. Minerals Management Service to review an application by Blue H USA LLC for a lease to test floating platform technology and collect data at the site for the proposed wind farm.
The company announced the congressional support for its application at its U.S. headquarters in Boston yesterday.
'I think the entire delegation recognizes the seriousness of our state and nation's energy crisis,' Blue H spokesman Martin Reilly said in a telephone interview. 'We're confident with this letter that this moves us one step closer to make this demonstration project a reality.'
All 10 of the state's members of the House of Representatives and U.S. Sens. Edward Kennedy and John Kerry signed the letter asking that Minerals Management Service 'review and consider the application submitted by Blue H USA, which could prove beneficial for developing future renewable energy resources for Massachusetts and the nation.'
