A wind turbine is damaged off Nantucket Island. Searchers are combing beaches for debris

Wind developers off the touristy Massachusetts island of Nantucket have sent teams to search for debris after one of their wind turbine blades suffered damage. Vineyard Wind said Tuesday it is mobilizing teams to recover debris on south-facing beaches. The development says a “blade damage incident” took place Saturday. Vineyard Wind says it’s also working with the U.S. Coast Guard to maintain a safety zone of 500 meters around the affected turbine. It says that the debris consists of nontoxic fiberglass fragments and that any washing ashore will be pieces of one square foot or less.
