DZ the owner of the black point fish trap sold to National grid with N/G assuming that was where they were going to bring the cable in , Narragansett told them [no thanks[ ,,,so the state is having it come in directly from League rock ......under the beach & under the road & will hook up in the 2nd parking lot / that will all be underground . They are running a 2nd above ground but incased in cement , But that isn,t suppose to stop the electrical field .
rumor has it that the DEM has already sold two fish trap licenses & one might or both maybe setup in the bay . there are 12 oe 13 sites in the bay approved for traps/ or gill nets ><><>

Also a rumor that they are looking at 50 more to be erected around Coxes Ledge ,if true I don,t understand the draggers & party boats not being up in arms ><><

I meant 50 wind turbines

Thanks Clammer - I'm sure this topic might be hot around the RISAA show. I have a few inquiries out there.

As Clammer pointed out, the Black Point Fish Trap Co. was compensated by National Grid as were 5 or 6 other commercial fishermen who proved to have a history affected by the windfarm. Located an article in The Independent that said the owner of the fish trap is Alan Glidden. Nevertheless, there's still cause for concern.
