American Bird Conservancy Statement on Cape Wind Decision in Mass.

 "American Bird Conservancy is disappointed in the Department of the
Interior decision to approve the Cape Wind Project because the science
collected for the project on bird collision threats is inadequate, and the
site will reduce prime offshore sea-duck foraging habitat.  Further, there
are data to suggest that loons will likely abandon the area for years to
come, and there may be significant impacts to endangered Roseate Terns ,
which breed in nearby  Buzzard's Bay and feed in Nantucket Sound," said Dr.
Michael Fry Director of Conservation Advocacy for American Bird Conservancy.

Dr Fry is Chairman of the Federal Minerals Management Service Environmental
Studies Advisory Committee.

American Bird Conservancy (www.abcbirds.org<http://www.abcbirds.org>)
conserves native birds and their habitats throughout the Americas by
safeguarding the rarest species, conserving and restoring habitats, and
reducing threats while building capacity of the bird conservation movement.
ABC is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit membership organization that is
consistently awarded a top, four-star rating by the independent group,
Charity Navigator.
