   " I am fifty-percent comfortable," said Jay Cashman of Patriot Renewables, LLC., a renewable energy subsidiary of his construction company, Jay Cashman Inc.Nearly a year ago, Mr. Cashman told Fairhaven residents that birds were the "one thing" he feared could jeopardize the South Coast Wind project, which would plant three clusters of turbines off the coasts of Fairhaven, Dartmouth and Naushon Island, one of the Elizabeth Islands.

   According to Jay Cashman, president of Patriot Renewables, LLC, an Environmental Notification Form (ENF) will be filed before the end of May 2006 with the Massachusetts Executive Office of Environmental Affairs at the Massachusetts Environmental Protection Agency.
   
   Mr. Cashman said his company's goal is to design a project that meets the region's energy needs by working cooperatively with local communities and organizations.The working name for the project is the South Coast Offshore Wind Project.
   
   While the exact location for the estimated 90 to 120 wind-turbine wind farm has yet to be determined, the Buzzards Bay area provides the optimum location for the siting of a wind farm as it meets the three most important criteria for a viable commercial wind energy project: average annual wind speed of 20 mph, sheltered location with a water depth of no more than 50 to 60 feet and proximity to existing transmission lines.
   
   Wind energy is important to the future power needs of the region, said Mr. Cashman.We intend to work closely with SouthCoast communities, the local, state and federal environmental and regulatory agencies and other stakeholders to determine the most feasible way to develop this project.
   
   As the plans for South Coast Wind are developed, some of the more immediate issues that Patriot Renewables will be addressing include working closely with the Massachusetts Audubon Society to protect the endangered roseate terns and other birds in the region, and working with the U.S. Coast Guard to ensure that wind turbines are sited well away from shipping channels and that proper and adequate navigational lighting and fog horns are used to protect commercial fishing and recreational vessels.
   
   Mr. Cashman stressed, This project and others like it are vital to making the United States less reliant on oil from the Middle East.We cannot be held hostage by countries that do not always have friendly relationships with us.With the jumps in gasoline prices and conclusive evidence mounting about dramatic global warming, it is vital that America shift its energy focus away from fossil fuels and toward renewable energy sooner rather than later.Wind power offers energy generation that is clean, reliable, free and proven to be compatible with humans and animals.
   
   ISO New England, Inc., the Holyoke-based manager of New England's power grid, has issued warnings about rolling blackouts and brownouts since January 2006.Our energy needs are growing, and wind power offers a clean, renewable source of energy that produces no waste products and no greenhouse gas emissions, Mr. Cashman concluded.
