CCT reports the first WAVE ENERGY project agreement signed by Rhode Island to stabilize energy costs. The Block Island Times offers a more indepth explanation of the technology:
$45 mill wave energy deal signed

Block Island finds itself at the center of initiatives in both wave and wind energy that are meeting with mixed reactions from the state. Governor Donald Carcieri is to announce the signing of an agreement between the state Office of Energy Resources, the Rhode Island Economic Development Corporation and wave energy company Oceanlinx Limited to create two wave energy plants in Rhode Island coastal waters, including a pilot plant off Block Island that could reduce island electric rates.

Middleboro is undergoing drastic problems created by poor historical fiscal decisions and current knee-jerk reactions to solve systemic problems. Selling assets to pay current expenses is poor policy. We need to ensure that all have a voice at the table and are allowed to participate and determine the direction of the future. 'Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committeed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it's the only thing that ever has.' Margaret Mead
