The requested date accounts for a one-year statutory deadline that the Clean Air Act gives EPA
to reach an OCS air permitting decision following EPA’s determination that a project sponsor has
submitted a complete application. EPA deemed the Project Sponsor’s OCS air permit application
complete on April 7, 2023.
Milestone updated as per BOEM's revised ROD date. BOEM ROD date shifted from October 23 2023 to November 21 2023 and the USACE final milestone has been adjusted accordingly.
Because the COP final completion date is contingent on issuance of the ROD, BOEM requests that the COP final completion date be extended by 30 days, to February 21, 2024 due to the ROD moving to November 21, 2023.
