Abstract:
The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management is working on a project to identify and synthesize current North Atlantic right whale (NARW) research and management activities conducted by State and Federal government researchers, academic institutions, and non-governmental organizations. This project includes identification of mitigation efforts to avoid or limit impacts from offshore wind development activities on NARWs. This information will provide essential data and stakeholder feedback so that BOEM managers and scientists are better able to predict, mitigate, and monitor any potential conflicts between NARWs and offshore wind development.
