BOSTON, MA -- "The SJC's decision brings to a close ten years of state and local permitting for this landmark clean energy project", said David Rosenzweig, Cape Wind's attorney in these proceedings.

"This important decision brings Cape Wind's benefits of hundreds of new jobs, greater energy independence and a healthier environment that much closer to the people of Massachusetts. The court was right to say no to the delay tactics of the oil- and coal-funded opposition group which brought this lawsuit", Mark Rodgers, Cape Wind Communications Director, added.
