Description

Description

The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management has been pursuing offshore wind projects on federal waters across various U.S. coastal regions, including the Gulf of America, Gulf of Maine, New York Bight, California, Oregon, and the Central Atlantic. These projects involve designating over 3.5 million acres of unleased federal waters for offshore wind development, which has raised concerns about disruption to local fish stocks, ecosystems, and the livelihoods of fishermen. The bureau has recently issued a directive to halt pending lease sales and scale back offshore wind projects to protect fishing zones and marine life.
