Mitigation
The BLM added an anti-perching/
nesting mitigation measure to the
Proposed Action to reduce the potential
for raven predation on Bi-State sagegrouse and the Mohave desert tortoise
through installation of tubular (nolattice) transmission structures (e.g.,
tubular H-frame, three-pole dead end, or
monopole structures). Perch and nest
deterrent devices would also be
installed on all transmission and
distribution structures within Mojave
desert tortoise recovery units and within
two miles of Bi-State sage-grouse
Priority Areas for Conservation.
Anticipated Permits and Authorizations
If approved, the BLM, NPS, and BIA
would issue a ROWs for their
jurisdiction. The term of the ROWs
would be for 30-years.

Consultation Efforts
The BLM is utilizing the NEPA
substitution process to comply with the
requirements of Section 106 of the
National Historic Preservation Act
(NHPA), 54 U.S.C. 306108, consistent
with 36 CFR 800.8(c). The BLM, as lead
federal agency, has incorporated
information and the steps of the Section
106 process into the Draft EIS, and
publication of the Draft EIS will allow
the consulting parties and the public an
opportunity to review and comment on
the process as provided in 36 CFR
800.8(c)(2).
The BLM will continue to consult
with Indian Tribal Nations on a
government-to-government basis in
accordance with Executive Order 13175,
BLM MS 1780, and other Departmental
policies. Tribal concerns, including
impacts on Indian trust assets and
potential impacts to cultural resources,
will be given due consideration.
Additional government-to-government
meetings are planned, and coordination
will continue through project
implementation.
Schedule for the Decision-Making
Process
Consistent with the NEPA and BLM’s
land use planning regulations, the BLM
will include a 30-day public protest
period and a concurrent 60-day
Governor’s consistency review when the
BLM publishes the Final EIS/Proposed
RMPA. The Final EIS/Proposed RMPA
is anticipated to be available in winter
2024 with an approved RMPA and
Record of Decision in spring 2024.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In
accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, BOEM provides
the general public and other Federal
agencies with an opportunity to
comment on new, proposed, revised,
and continuing collections of
information. This helps BOEM assess
the impact of its information collection
requirements and minimize the public’s
reporting burden. It also helps the
public understand BOEM’s information
collection requirements and provide the
requested data in the desired format.
BOEM is soliciting comments on the
proposed ICR described below. BOEM is
especially interested in public
comments addressing the following
issues: (1) is the collection necessary to
the proper functions of BOEM; (2) what
can BOEM do to ensure that this
information is processed and used in a
timely manner; (3) is the burden
estimate accurate; (4) how might BOEM
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity
of the information to be collected; and
(5) how might BOEM minimize the
burden of this collection on the
respondents, including minimizing the
burden through the use of information
technology?
Comments submitted in response to
this notice are a matter of public record.
BOEM will include or summarize each
comment in its ICR to OMB for approval
of this information collection. You
should be aware that your entire
comment—including your address,
phone number, email address, or other
personally identifiable information
included in your comment—may be
made publicly available at any time.
For BOEM to consider withholding
from disclosure your personally
identifiable information, you must
identify, in a cover letter, any
information contained in your comment
that, if released, would constitute a
clearly unwarranted invasion of your
privacy. You must also briefly describe
any possible harmful consequences of
the disclosure of information, such as
embarrassment, injury, or other harm.
Even if BOEM withholds your
personally identifiable information in
the context of this ICR, your comment
is subject to the Freedom of Information
Act (FOIA) (5 U.S.C. 552). If your
comment is requested under FOIA, your
information will only be withheld if a
determination is made that one of the
FOIA exemptions to disclosure applies.
Such a determination will be made in
accordance with the Department of the
Interior’s (DOI) FOIA implementing
regulations (43 CFR part 2) and
applicable law.

restoration projects by Federal, State, or
local government agencies, or for use in
construction projects authorized by or

funded in whole or in part by the
Federal Government.
The OCS Lands Act, 43 U.S.C. 1331

regulations to administer leasing of
mineral resources on the OCS. Section
1337(k)(2) of title 43 authorizes the
Secretary to ‘‘. . . negotiate with any

restoration, or coastal wetlands
restoration undertaken by a Federal,

Notice of Availability of a Final
Environmental Impact Statement for
Ocean Wind LLC’s Proposed Wind
Energy Facility Offshore New Jersey
Bureau of Ocean Energy
Management (BOEM), Interior.
ACTION: Notice of availability; final
environmental impact statement.
AGENCY:

BOEM announces the
availability of the final environmental
impact statement (FEIS) for the
construction and operations plan (COP)
submitted by Ocean Wind LLC (Ocean
Wind) for its proposed Ocean Wind 1
Offshore Wind Farm Project (Project)
offshore New Jersey. The FEIS analyzes
the potential environmental impacts of
the Project as described in the COP (the
proposed action) and the alternatives to
the proposed action. The FEIS will
inform BOEM’s decision whether to
approve, approve with modifications, or
disapprove the COP.
ADDRESSES: The FEIS and detailed
information about the Project, including
the COP, can be found on BOEM’s
website at: https://www.boem.gov/
renewable-energy/state-activities/oceanwind-1.

facility and its associated export cables
on the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS)
offshore New Jersey. The Project would
be developed within the range of design
parameters outlined in the Ocean Wind
1 COP, subject to applicable mitigation
measures. The Project as proposed in
the COP would include up to 98 wind
turbine generators (WTGs), up to 3
offshore high voltage alternating current
substations, inter-array cables linking
the individual turbines to the offshore
substations, substation interconnector
cables linking the substations to each
other, offshore export cables, an onshore
export cable system, 2 onshore
substations, and connections to the
existing electrical grid in New Jersey.
The WTGs, offshore substations, interarray cables, and substation
interconnector cables would be located
on the OCS approximately 13 nautical
miles (15 statute miles) southeast of
Atlantic City, New Jersey, within the
area defined by Renewable Energy Lease
OCS–A 0498 (Lease Area). The offshore
export cables would be buried below the
seabed surface in the OCS and State of
New Jersey-owned submerged lands.
The onshore export cables, substations,
and grid connections would be located
in Ocean County and Cape May County,
New Jersey.
Alternatives: BOEM considered 26
alternatives when preparing the draft
environmental impact statement (DEIS)
and carried forward 6 alternatives for
further analysis in the DEIS and FEIS.
These six alternatives include five
action alternatives and the no action
alternative. Twenty alternatives were
rejected because they did not meet the
purpose and need for the proposed
action or did not meet screening criteria,
which are presented appendix C of the
FEIS. The screening criteria included
consistency with law and regulations,
technical and economic feasibility,
environmental impact, and geographic
considerations.
Availability of the FEIS: The FEIS,
Ocean Wind 1 COP, and associated
information are available on BOEM’s
website at: https://www.boem.gov/
renewable-energy/state-activities/oceanwind-1. BOEM has distributed digital
copies of the FEIS to all parties listed in
appendix K of the FEIS. If you require
a digital copy of the FEIS on a flash
drive or paper copy, BOEM will provide
one upon request, as long as copies are
