Residents in Ocean Gate are able to get some peaceful sleep after the Borough has decided to shutdown the towns wind turbines overnight while it decides the future of the generators.
The situation in Ocean Gate is amplifying over citations given by the Ocean County Health Department (OCHD) to the Borough, claiming its wind turbines are in violation of state noise regulations.
Interior Secretary Ken Salazar says a recently completed review is a major step toward developing wind energy off the coasts of Maryland, Delaware, Virginia, and New Jersey.
