OCEAN CITY, N.J. — Police arrested six protesters Tuesday who tried to disrupt the start of land-based testing for New Jersey's first offshore wind farm. But the work progressed anyway.
Each of the protesters, none of whom lived in Ocean City, was charged with failure to disperse and obstruction of public pathways, city spokesman Doug Bergen said. The work involved cutting holes into roadways, checking on the location of existing utilities and doing soil and groundwater sampling for the project, called Ocean Wind I, the company said.
