Notice of Availability of a Final Environmental Assessment for Commercial Wind Lease and Site Assessment Activities on the Atlantic Outer Continental Shelf of the Central Atlantic

Zusammenfassung

The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) announces the availability of a final environmental assessment (EA) and its finding that possible wind energy-related leasing, site assessment, and site characterization activities on the U.S. Atlantic Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) (the Proposed Action) will not significantly impact the human environment. The EA analyses the potential impacts of the Proposed Action and a No Action alternative. The EA will inform BOEM's decision whether to issue leases on the OCS offshore the U.S. Central Atlantic coast and its subsequent review of site assessment plans in the lease areas.
