Sentence Correction (SC) | Re: Many states, in search of industries that are clean, fast-growing, and

Sachinpri - No! In (D), "are clean" and "grow" cannot be parallel.

Putting (D) in the given sentence:
Many states, in search of industries thatare clean and grow fast,paying good wages to skilled workers, are trying to attract high-technology industries.

This implies,
thatare clean,
and
thatare grow fast (weird, isn't it? "growing fast" would be the correct noun form here)...this is enough to eliminate (D)

Hope thisclarifies.
