"NJ Senate Candidate's Ties to Offshore Wind Industry Raise Concerns"
A New Jersey state Senate candidate, Steve Dnistrian, who has been critical of offshore wind energy, recently represented LS Power Grid, a company seeking to build power lines for offshore wind projects. Dnistrian's opponent and supporters accuse him of hypocrisy, while Dnistrian claims his work for the company provides him with valuable knowledge on the issue. The controversy over offshore wind has intensified in New Jersey, with concerns about whale deaths and the potential impact on tourism. Environmental advocacy groups in the state remain supportive of the offshore wind industry.
