Pacific Wind Lease Sale 2 for
Commercial Leasing for Wind Power
Development on the Oregon Outer
Continental Shelf—Proposed Sale
Notice
Bureau of Ocean Energy
Management, Interior.
ACTION: Proposed sale notice; request for
comments.
AGENCY:
The Bureau of Ocean Energy
Management (BOEM) proposes to hold
Pacific Lease Sale 2 and offer one or
more lease areas (Lease Areas) for
commercial wind power development
on the U.S. Outer Continental Shelf
(OCS). The Lease Areas are located in
the Brookings and Coos Bay wind
energy areas (WEAs) offshore the State
of Oregon. This proposed sale notice
(PSN) contains information pertaining
to the areas available for leasing, certain
lease provisions and conditions, auction
details, criteria for evaluating competing
bids, and procedures for lease award,
appeals, and lease execution. BOEM
proposes a multiple factor bidding
format using a simultaneous clock
auction and will use new auction
software for the lease sale, resulting in
changes to its previous auction rules.
Any lease resulting from this sale does
not constitute approval for any offshore
wind energy facilities. Lessees must first
submit project-specific plans to BOEM
and obtain BOEM’s approval before they
may start any construction of an OCS
wind energy facility. BOEM will make
such plans available for environmental,
technical, and public reviews before
deciding whether the proposed
development should be authorized.
DATES: BOEM must receive your
comments no later than July 1, 2024.
For prospective bidders who want to
participate in this lease sale, unless you
have already received confirmation from
BOEM that you are qualified to
participate in the Oregon auction,
BOEM must receive your qualification
materials no later than July 1, 2024.
Prior to the auction, BOEM must
confirm your qualification to bid in the
auction.

www.regulations.gov. In the box titled
‘‘Search for dockets and documents on

I. Background
(1) Call for Information and
Nominations: On April 29, 2022, BOEM
published the ‘‘Call for Information and
Nominations-Commercial Leasing for
Wind Power Development on the Outer
Continental Shelf offshore Oregon’’
(Call). The Call consisted of two areas
identified as the Brookings and Coos
Bay Call Areas. BOEM received 278
comments from Tribal nations; the
general public; Federal, State, and local
agencies; the fishing industry; industry
groups; developers; non-governmental
organizations; universities; and other
stakeholders. Comments can be viewed
at https://www.regulations.gov/
document/BOEM-2022-0009-0001/
comment. Four developers nominated
areas for a commercial wind energy
lease within the Call Areas.
(2) Area Identification: After the close
of the Call comment period on June 28,
2022, BOEM initiated the process for
identifying possible leasing areas (Area
ID) by reviewing the input received on
the Call. BOEM used the modified Area
ID process described in a note to
stakeholders, available at: https://
www.boem.gov/newsroom/notesstakeholders/boem-enhances-itsprocesses-identify-future-offshore-windenergy-areas. BOEM and the National
Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration’s (NOAA) National
