The US Bureau of Ocean Energy Management plans to reschedule several postponed public meetings “very soon” covering the development of the 800MW Vineyard Wind offshore project off the coast of Massachusetts.
Acting Department of the Interior Secretary David Bernhardt said BOEM will use “carryover funds, previously appropriated by Congress” to run the events.
Five meetings on 8, 9, 15, 16 and 17 January had been postponed because of the ongoing US government shutdown.
They concern the project's draft environmental impact statement.
Vineyard Wind is a 50:50 joint venture between Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners and Avangrid Renewables.
