The state’s largest commercial fishing organization is publicly challenging assertions by the developer of the Cape Wind project that their offshore wind energy project will actually improve fishing in Nantucket Sound.
The Massachusetts Fishermen’s Partnership (MFP), which is comprised of 18 commercial fishing organizations, decided to take its message to the airwaves in a TV commercial now appearing on several channels, said Executive Director David Bergeron, “because the public needs to know that sustainable commercial fishing would be impacted and displaced” by the Cape Wind development project on Horseshoe Shoal.
