Save Greater Dowses Beach


Save Greater Dowses Beach
The Issue
A Connecticut-based utility company, Avangrid Renewables, has plans for a multi-year, heavy construction project at Barnstable’s beloved Dowses Beach. They propose a 3-year long construction project proposes to install three electrical export cables — for a total of 1200 Megawatts — from a future offshore wind farm. We believe this is a reckless endangerment of the environment, a wildlife habitat, and the health and safety of those who use this beautiful Nantucket Sound area on a year-round basis. Greater Dowses Beach is a fragile coastal zone estuary and barrier spit that simply cannot withstand this industrial assault. Please sign our petition here; we especially need residents of Barnstable, Cape Cod, and/or Massachusetts, USA. PLEASE NOTE: Change.org asks for a modest donation to keep their platform up and running — that donation does not come to us. If you wish to donate to help our group with legal representation and other expenses, please go to:
