Description:
Before a renewable energy facility can be constructed, a lessee or applicant must submit a construction and operations plan (COP) for BOEM’s review and approval. Once submitted, BOEM conducts environmental and technical reviews of the COP and decides whether to approve, approve with modification, or disapprove the COP. Guidance on information requirements for COPs can be found at: https://www.boem.gov/COP-Guidelines/. On March 19, 2019, Bay State Wind submitted a COP for Lease OCS-A 0500.
Milestones:
The milestone is dependent upon the applicant - BOEM does not have sufficient information to establish a target completion date.
The milestone is dependent upon the previous milestone - BOEM does not have sufficient information to establish a target completion date.
