SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Technical Corrections

    In the Federal Register dated August 31, 2021, on page 48764 in the 
first column, line 64, under the heading ``Purpose and Need for the 
Proposed Action,'' BOEM originally included the following sentences: 
``This Project will help the State of New York achieve the aggressive 
clean energy goals set forth in the Clean Energy Standards Order and 
the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act through a power 
purchase agreement (PPA) contract with the New York State Energy 
Research and Development Authority to deliver 880 MW of offshore wind 
energy. Sunrise Wind may modify its PPA contract with NYSERDA to 
deliver up to 924 MW of offshore wind energy.''
    BOEM is replacing that language with these corrected sentences: 
``This Project will help the State of New York achieve the aggressive 
clean energy goals set forth in the Clean Energy Standards Order and 
the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act through an Offshore 
Wind Renewable Energy Certificate Purchase and Sale Agreement (OREC) 
with the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority to 
deliver 880 MW of offshore wind energy. Sunrise Wind has the ability 
under the OREC to deliver a maximum project capacity of 924 MW of 
offshore wind energy.''
    In the same edition of the Federal Register, on page 48765, first 
column, line 2, under the heading ``Preliminary Proposed Action and 
Alternatives,'' (which begins on previous page), BOEM included the 
sentence: ``The wind turbine generator foundations may be monopiles or 
gravity base structures with associated support and access structures, 
in some combination or entirely of one kind.''
    BOEM is replacing that language with this corrected sentence: ``The 
wind turbine generators will use monopile foundations and the OCS-DC 
will be on a piled jacket foundation.''

Chief Environmental Officer, Bureau of Ocean Energy Management.
