New Project information was submitted by the project sponsor on October 4, 2022, October 14, 2022, and October 27, 2022 in response to stakeholder concerns which included an updated COP and permit applications showing a shift to the location of the BL England substation to an adjacent portion of the same property which formerly housed elements of the BL England Generating Station and adjustment of the row A wind turbine generators (WTGs) as outlined in a joint letter signed by Ocean Wind LLC and Atlantic Shores Offshore Wind to create a distance of at least 1,500 meter between Ocean Wind 1’s and Atlantic Shores Offshore Wind South’s WTGs, and supplemental filing of information pertaining to maintenance dredging of the Barnegat Inlet Federal Navigation Project and upland material disposal and restoration of impacted submerged aquatic vegetation at a ratio of 3:1. The project sponsor’s delayed submission of their New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) Land Resources Protection permit application will result in delayed issuance of NJDEP’s Coastal Zone Management Act (CZMA) federal consistency review decision. Delays to the Endangered Species Act (ESA) consultation with National Marine Fisheries Service of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) and the Essential Fish Habitat (EFH) consultation with NOAA will result in delayed issuance of reasonable and prudent measures (with implementing terms and conditions) and conservation recommendations, respectively. BOEM requests this extension of the interim and final milestone dates to provide adequate time for BOEM to incorporate CZMA federal consistency conditions, as well as measures issued as a result of the ESA and EFH consultations and developed through the Section 106 review, into the final EIS and ROD.
