Environmental Assessment for Potential Lease Issuance and Marine Hydrokinetic Technology Testing Offshore Florida

Type: Notice
Date: 2013-08-13
Agency: Department of the Interior, Bureau of Ocean Energy Management
BOEM has prepared a revised environmental assessment (EA) considering the environmental impacts and socioeconomic effects of issuing a lease in Official Protraction Diagram NG 17-06, Blocks 7003, 7053, and 7054, offshore Florida. The proposed lease would authorize technology testing activities, including the installation, operation, relocation, and decommissioning of technology testing facilities within the lease area, such as deployment of technology demonstration devices, single anchor moorings, and mooring telemetry buoys. As a result of the analysis in the revised EA, BOEM issued a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI). The FONSI concluded that the environmental impacts associated with the preferred alternative would not significantly impact the environment; therefore, the preparation of an environmental impact statement (EIS) is not required. The purpose of this notice is to inform the public of the availability of the EA and FONSI, which can be accessed online at: https://www.boem.gov/Renewable-Energy-Program/State-Activities / Florida.aspx.
