Cancelled

The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) rescinded all designated Wind Energy Areas (WEAs) on the U.S. Outer Continental Shelf, ending the federal practice of designating large areas for offshore wind development. This action de-designates more than 3.5 million acres of unleased federal waters previously targeted for offshore wind development across multiple U.S. coastal regions.
