This is the Proposed Sale
Notice (PSN) for the sale of one
commercial wind energy lease on the
Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) offshore
Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, pursuant to
30 CFR 585.216. BOEM proposes to
offer Lease OCS–A 0508 for sale using
an ascending-bid auction. In this PSN,
you will find information pertaining to
the area available for leasing, proposed
lease provisions and conditions, auction
details, the lease form, criteria for
evaluating competing bids, award
procedures, appeal procedures, and
lease execution. BOEM invites public
comment during a 60-day comment
period following publication of this
notice. The issuance of the proposed
lease resulting from this sale would not
constitute an approval of projectspecific plans to develop offshore wind
energy. Such plans, expected to be
submitted by the auction winner, would
be subject to subsequent environmental
and technical reviews prior to a
decision to proceed with development.
This document is also a Request for
Interest (RFI), pursuant to 30 CFR
585.212, to assess if there has been a
change in competitive interest in the
area encompassing proposed lease OCS–
A 0508 since the publication of the
North Carolina Call for Information and
Nominations (Call) (77 FR 74204) on
December 13, 2012. If BOEM determines
that competitive interest in the
proposed lease area (OCS–A 0508) still
exists, BOEM will proceed with the
competitive process set forth in 30 CFR
585.211 through 585.225. If BOEM
determines competitive interest in the
proposed lease area (OCS–A 0508) no
longer exists because only one potential
lessee is interested in the area, BOEM
may proceed with the non-competitive
process set forth in 30 CFR 585.231(d)(i) following the receipt of the
acquisition fee specified in 30 CFR
585.502(a).
