About this listen
Anastasia E. Lennon of The New Bedford Light this week joins Eli Sherman and Kim Kalunian on “Behind the Story” to discuss the offshore wind industry, including the Trump administration order to stop work on the Revolution Wind project.
Lennon talked about what moves have been happening across the country leading up to stop-work order handed down last Friday to Revolution Wind, which project officials said was 80% completed.
She also discussed what's known so far about the security concerns cited as the reason for stop-work order, along with what other offshore wind projects are in the works and what this decision might mean for them.
Later in the show, Eli and Kim talk about the “Stories We Wish We Wrote.” They include (not all mentioned on air):
