The Trump administration has asked a federal judge to withdraw the Interior Department’s 2024 approval of a wind farm off the coast of Maryland, according to court documents filed on Friday.
The action is the latest in a series of moves the administration has made to stymie development ofoffshorewind and other cleanenergyfacilities.
Attorneys for the Interior Department filed the motion in U.S. District Court in Maryland in a lawsuit brought by the mayor and city council of Ocean City, Maryland, in October that challenged the agency’s approval of the US Wind project.
