  • Monthly Status Report for July 2024:
    BOEM distributed the MOA for signature on July 31 and is on track to meet the alternative completion date milestone of Aug 21, to conclude Section 106 consultation.
  • Monthly Status Report for June 2024:
    The Historic Property Treatment Plans (HPTPs) were received from the sponsor on March 27, 2024, which delayed consultations with Tribal nations and the Delaware SHPO about terrestrial archaeology mitigations and HPTPs. Those consultations are underway with a clear path forward but were unlikely to be completed in compliance with the FAST-41 schedule. Finalization of the MOA is required prior to ROD issuance. The alternative milestone shifts the milestone by 60-days to allow for completion of consultations within a timeline that is still well prior to ROD issuance, as required.
  • Non-conformance Explanation:
    The Historic Property Treatment Plans (HPTPs) were received from the sponsor on March 27, 2024, instead of March 1 as anticipated, which delayed consultations with Tribal nations and the Delaware SHPO about terrestrial archaeology mitigations and HPTPs. Those consultations are underway with a clear path forward but were unlikely to be completed in compliance with the FAST-41 schedule. Finalization of the MOA is required prior to ROD issuance. The alternative milestone shifts the milestone by 60-days to allow for completion of consultations within a timeline that is still well prior to ROD issuance, as required.
