At the Maine Fishermen's Forum in Rockport Maine on Saturday March 6, 2010. a group of wind industry reps and academics, agency officials and ENGOs rolled out a late-in-the-session new bill LD 1810 that would open up all of Maine's nearshore fishing grounds to 40 to 50 year windfarm leases, replete with exemptions from state conservation and pollution laws and a host of other greasings of the skids..

Listen below to the wind industry and government speakers at the Fishermen's Forumis event. A skeptical crowd of fishermen listens silently as the speakers make their pitches for leasing off Maine's state waters to the power industry. Note that NOBODY gets any applause. Unusual at the 'Forum.
