(Washington, D.C.) -- Two locations off the southern Oregon Coast have been identified for potential wind energy projects. The federal Bureau of Ocean Energy Management announced one area is 32 miles west of Coos Bay and the other is 18 miles west of Brookings. The areas avoid 98 percent of ocean that was recommended for exclusion, due to fishing. Governor Tina Kotek says wind will play an important role in meeting the state's renewable energy goals. They've been working with fishing groups and Tribes to develop the plan.
