In anticipation of the much favoured adoption of the offshore wind Bill in the Senate Finance Committee, minority business owners and civic leaders plan to hold a gathering Friday morning to voice the Bill’s importance and thus pave the way for its passing, the Associated Press reports.
It is said that the backers of the Bill will provide argumentation grounded on the advantages of pollution free energy development, which would be realized by utilization of the offshore wind potential off the coast of Ocean City.
The support voiced recently by numerous advocates of renewable energy and environment activists perpetuated passing of the measure in the House of Delegates in an 88-47 vote ration last week.
The General Assembly is planned to adjourn on Monday.
