Description | WASHINGTON (AP) — Interior Secretary Ken Salazar voiced optimism Friday that the nation’s first offshore wind farm will soon break ground after more than a decade of delays and be followed by more off the Atlantic coast.
“I think there’s a good chance it will happen before the end of the year,” Salazar said of the Cape Wind project.
