BOEM undertook a comprehensive review of the permitting timetable for this project with the cooperating agencies and project sponsor. The review encompassed all NEPA and associated agency actions and milestone dates for the project, including this action. The review culminated in a request from BOEM for an Executive Director Determination to update interim and final completion dates for multiple actions, including this action. The Executive Director made a determination on March 30, 2023 to adjust the permitting timetable as requested, with the exception of this action. Because the Executive Director did not receive BOEM's request with enough time to make a decision more than 30 days in advance of the completion date of this action, as required under the FAST-Act (42 U.S.C. § 4370m-2(c)(2)(D)(ii)), this action was not modified through the Determination and will instead follow the non-conformance protocol to make the requested schedule modification. As background for BOEM's requested milestone changes, on June 29, 2022, FPISC published BOEM's requested date shift for the NEPA DEIS from August 2022 to December 2022. The associated NMFS consultation date change requests have been shifted accordingly. The previous consultation dates were associated with the previous NEPA schedule and therefore are out of sync with the current schedule and consultation timelines.
