[Docket No. BOEM–2012–0068] 

Notice of Determination of No 

Competitive Interest 

AGENCY: Bureau of Ocean Energy 

Management (BOEM), Interior. 

ACTION: Notice of Determination of No 

Competitive Interest for Proposed Rightof-Way Grant Area 

SUMMARY: This notice provides BOEM’s 

determination of no competitive interest 

(DNCI) for the area requested by the 

Deepwater Wind Block Island 

Transmission System, LLC, application 

for a Right-of-Way (ROW) grant for 

renewable energy purposes on the Outer 

Continental Shelf (OCS) off the coast of 

Rhode Island as described in the May 

23, 2012, Notice of Proposed Grant Area 

and Request for Competitive Interest 

(RFCI) in the Area of the Deepwater 

Wind Block Island Transmission System 

(BITS) Proposal (77 FR 30551). 

DATES: Effective August 7, 2012. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. 

Jessica Bradley, Project Coordinator, 

BOEM, Office of Renewable Energy 

Programs, 381 Elden Street, HM 1328, 

Herndon, Virginia 20170. (703) 787– 

1320. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Authority 

This DNCI is published pursuant to 

subsection 8(p)(3) of the OCS Lands Act, 

which was added by section 388 of the 

Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPAct) (43 

U.S.C. 1337(p)(3)), and the 

implementing regulations at 30 CFR Part 

585. Subsection 8(p)(3) of the OCS 

Lands Act requires that OCS renewable 

energy leases, easements, and ROWs be 

issued ‘‘on a competitive basis unless 

the Secretary determines after public 

notice of a proposed lease, easement, or 

ROW that there is no competitive 

interest.’’ The authority to make such 

determinations has been delegated to 

BOEM. 

Determination and Next Steps 

This DNCI provides notice to the 

public that BOEM has determined there 

is no competitive interest in the 

proposed ROW grant area, as no 

indications of competitive interest were 

submitted in response to the RFCI. 

In the RFCI, BOEM also solicited 

public comment on site conditions and 

multiple uses within the ROW grant 

area that would be relevant to the 

proposed project or its impacts. BOEM 

received public comment submissions 

from two (2) parties in response. The 

comments received in response to the 

RFCI will be used to inform BOEM in 

subsequent agency decisions. After the 

publication of this DNCI, BOEM will 

proceed with the noncompetitive ROW 

grant process outlined at 30 CFR 

585.306(b). 

Environmental Review Process 

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers 

(USACE) New England District and 

BOEM both have jurisdiction by law for 

portions of the BITS. The BITS would 

support Deepwater Wind’s proposed 

Block Island Wind Farm (BIWF), a 

proposed 30-megawatt offshore wind 

energy project located in Rhode Island 

State waters approximately 2.5 nautical 

miles southeast of Block Island. Since 

the majority of the activities and 

permanent structures related to the 

BIWF and the BITS will be sited in state 

waters and on state lands, the USACE 

will be the lead agency for the National 

Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) 

environmental analysis of both projects. 

The portion of the BITS that would be 

located on the OCS requires a ROW 

grant from BOEM, and BOEM will be a 

cooperating agency in the NEPA process 

led by the USACE. BOEM will consider 

all relevant information produced from 

the NEPA process and, if appropriate, 

adopt the USACE’s NEPA document 

prior to the issuance of any ROW grant. 

BOEM and the USACE intend to 

conduct consultations required by 

Federal law or executive order jointly 

during the NEPA process. These 

consultations include, but are not 

limited to, those required by the 

Endangered Species Act, the MagnusonStevens Fishery Conservation and 

Management Act, the National Historic 

Preservation Act, and Executive Order 

13175—‘‘Consultation and Coordination 

with Tribal Governments.’’
