Description:Members of coastal communities have voiced their worries about, among other things, the potential impacts of running transmission lines for these projects under local beaches and roads.4 In response to some of these concerns, offshore wind developers have entered into agreements with states and towns to provide various benefits and payments to communities that may be impacted by their projects.5 This report provides an overview of these agreements and examines issues related to whether individuals who are not a party to an agreement may nevertheless enforce it. Whether a given individual who is not a party to an agreement may enforce that agreement is a case-by-cae determination based on a number of factors; as such, individuals who are interested in a given agreement should seek legal counsel to help them evaluate their individual circumstances.
