Gov. Maura Healey isn’t backing down from her administration’s climate record as debris from the broken wind turbine blade off of Nantucket washes ashore on Martha’s Vineyard.

The Town of Edgartown Parks Commissioners has issued a swim advisory after the “confirmed sighting of small fragments and pieces washing ashore” at a pair of beaches “due to the recent Vineyard Wind incident.”

Officials described the advisory as a “precautionary measure to ensure public safety,” at Norton Point and South Beach. An assessment is ongoing to determine whether the beaches will be closed in full, a release stated.

“We urge members of the public and property owners who discover debris to immediately contact the Edgartown Parks Department,” the Parks Commissioners stated. “Your cooperation is essential in maintaining the safety and cleanliness of our beaches.”

The development broke Wednesday, around the same time as Healey made her monthly appearance on GBH’s ‘Ask the Governor’ segment. A listener inquired whether Healey has the “political will” to end the use of fossil fuels.

“We have leaned hard into all things renewables,” the governor said. “This administration appointed the country’s first ever climate chief, we’ve gone out with the biggest procurement on offshore wind in the country, and we are competing every day to make Massachusetts the hub of climate technology.”

Noticeably missing in Healey’s remarks was any mention of what Nantucket officials and residents are calling a “crisis,” with the remnants of the Vineyard Wind blade failure which sparked on July 13, continuing to be felt into the new month.

“Several sections” of the already broken 351-foot blade detached from the turbine on Monday, with some large pieces entering the water column and other smaller pieces floating on the surface.

Nantucket officials alerted residents Tuesday that the debris – primarily consisting of small, popcorn-sized pieces of foam – was expected to wash ashore on the island’s southern beaches on Wednesday and Thursday.

But the trajectory of the debris changed, with foam washing ashore on Norton’s Point and South Beach, Vineyard Wind said in a statement to the Herald. The company has deployed crews to Wasque Beach on Chappaquiddick and in Menemsha and found “very limited debris on the beaches which has been recovered.”

“As wind patterns have shifted through the day, models are now suggesting the foam and other debris are more likely to be visible on Martha’s Vineyard, rather than being concentrated on the South beaches of Nantucket,” Vineyard Wind said.

A major climate bill hung in the balance as the final formal legislative meetings of the Legislature’s two-year session stretched into the evening hours Wednesday.

Included in the bill is language centered on streamlining and expediting the lengthy siting and permitting process for clean energy projects by consolidating state, regional and local permits. That part of the legislation is what Healey said she was focusing on the most, during her segment with GBH.

“You have the wind, you build the turbines out there,” the governor said, “but that wind, that energy has got to come onshore, and you need substations, you need hookups, you need the grid infrastructure.”

“In order to do something like that,” she continued, “you need to make sure that you are permitting and siting these things in the quickest, most effective way possible.”

A Herald analysis found that employees who list Vineyard Wind’s parent company, Avangrid, as their employer have made 38 donations totaling $16,425 to Healey since March 2018, two months before the Baker administration selected a Vineyard Wind bid for contract negotiation.

Christopher Lauzon, a Republican Senate candidate for the Cape and Islands, is challenging Healey and his opponent, state Sen. Julian Cyr, to donate the campaign money they have received from Avangrid to Nantucket business owners to “help them survive the wind turbine disaster.”

“If this was an oil company that had leaked on our beaches, they would reject the money,” Lauzon said in a statement on Wednesday. “We now have a worse disaster and so far they are keeping the dirty funds. If they truly cared about the environment, they would not have their campaign accounts benefitting from Avangrid.”
