Rhode Island Coastal Resources Management Council
The Rhode Island Coastal Resource Management Council are in charge of enforcing and regulating the Rhode Island marine and coastal resources. One example of these regulations is the conflicts that arose from the Vineyard Wind turbine development. After locals and fishermen were opposed to the development of 206 wind turbines due to its spatial occupancy, The Rhode Island Ocean Special Area Management Plan enforced a change of the distance between each turbine while also establishing direct communication between the Vineyard Wind turbine company and the locals. As a result, the conflict subsided significantly after the establishment of communication and enforcement took place.
