State grants waivers for Norfolk Aggie EMSA solar project after complaints, county staff report
Summary
County staff told commissioners the Massachusetts Department of Energy Resources granted waivers related to the Norfolk County Agricultural High School EMSA solar grant after complaints were filed; counsel has a copy of the approval letter dated June 26, 2025.
County staff reported on July 9 that the Massachusetts Department of Energy Resources (DOER) issued waivers associated with the Norfolk County Agricultural High School EMSA solar grant following complaints filed against ISMSA.
"The waivers were granted, so, that's a very favorable letter from DOR dated 06/26/2025," the county director told commissioners and added that counsel also has a copy of the letter.
Staff described the letter as a favorable outcome for the school's solar project; the transcript records the director noting the existence of complaints and the DOER waivers but does not detail the nature of the complaints or the exact waiver language. County counsel has the DOER approval letter and staff did not request any formal commission action at the July 9 meeting.
The director said the matter is now resolved in the agency review, and county counsel will retain the DOER correspondence as part of the project file. There was no further action recorded in the transcript.
