Letter: Communication issues plague offshore wind project

MAINE SUNDAY TELEGRAM • October 20, 2024

As a member of the Offshore Wind Port Advisory Group (OSWPAG), MDOT told us we’d receive its alternatives analysis as soon as it was available. On Oct. 11, I learned indirectly that the alternatives analysis could be found at https://www.maine.gov/mdot/projects/searsport/windport/. Later that day, I learned that MDOT posted this extensive document, encompassing hundreds of pages with attachments, a week before. Thousands of people have expressed interest in this matter. Shame on MDOT if that public intere st isn’t overwhelmingly apparent to them. ~ Steve Miller, Islesboro
