SUMMARY: The MMS has received a
request from Cape Wind Associates,
LLC (CWA) for a lease, easement or
right-of-way to construct and operate a
wind park located in Federal waters 4.7
miles offshore Cape Cod, Massachusetts.
The purpose of this project is to provide
a utility-scale wind energy facility
providing power to the New England
power grid. By this document, the MMS
announces: (1) Its intention to prepare
an EIS; (2) commencement of a 45-day
written scoping period under the
National Environmental Policy Act
(NEPA); and (3) invitation for
participation by interested cooperating

office regarding questions on the NOI.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
1. Background
In November 2001, CWA filed a
permit application with the U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers (USACE), New
England District, under section 10 of the
Rivers and Harbors Act of 1899, in
anticipation of constructing a wind park
located on Horseshoe Shoal in
Nantucket Sound, Massachusetts. The
proposed wind park would consist of
130 offshore wind turbine generators
arranged to maximize the park’s
maximum potential electric output of
approximately 454 megawatts. The
wind-generated electricity from each of
the turbines would be transmitted via a
33 kilovolt submarine transmission
cable system to a centrally located
electric service platform. This platform
would transform and transmit electric
power to the Cape Cod mainland (12+
miles) via two 115 kilovolt lines, where
it would ultimately connect with the
existing power grid.
The Energy Policy Act of 2005 was
enacted on August 8, 2005, giving the
Department of the Interior authority for
issuing leases, easements, or rights-ofway for alternative energy projects on
the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS).
Since its establishment in 1982, the
DOI’s Minerals Management Service
(MMS) has been responsible for
management of oil, natural gas, and
other mineral resource activities on
offshore Federal lands. With the new
authority in the Energy Policy Act of
2005, the MMS will now also manage
the alternative energy-related uses on
Federal OCS lands, act as a lead agency
for coordinating the permitting process
with other Federal agencies, and
monitor and regulate those facilities
used for alternative energy production
and energy support services. As such,
the MMS must comply with NEPA
when considering the CWA application.
In addition to the MMS’ analysis
under NEPA, the Massachusetts
Environmental Policy Act (MEPA) will
apply to the project’s upland and
submarine cable system components in
Nantucket Sound out to the 3-mile
State/Federal boundary. In order to
address all the environmental analyses
in the most efficient manner, the State
