NMFS has identified the need to extend MMPA, ESA, and EFH dashboard milestone dates to allow time to address inconsistencies and questions arising from US Wind’s 1/24/23 revised ITA submission. Due to the interconnected nature of the general EIS schedule with permit submissions, BOEM plans to extend EIS milestones by ~30 days in order to ensure that information from the consultations remains consistent with and is used to inform the EIS analysis. This means that the ROD will also be delayed. No final milestone dates are being extended beyond 30 days from the original target date and we are not currently in a 30 day lockout period for any milestone, so ED approval is not needed at this time. These changes will result in shifts for permit milestone dates as well. Per EPA email to BOEM on 2/23/23, "...EPA is not the permitting authority for this project, rather it is the Maryland Department of Environment (MDE).  EPA has not accepted responsibility for monitoring or updating the dashboard dates for US Wind with respect to the air permit since it is not the air permitting authority for this project, and BOEM would need to coordinate directly with MDE for any milestone updates or changes." BOEM NEPA coordinator discussed the milestones with Maryland Department of the Environment on 2/27/23 and received a request to modify OCS Air Permit dates. MDE cannot access Max.gov, so BOEM coordinator has changed dates at their request.
