1This includes workers engaged in hand packing 

of produce into containers, whether done on the 

ground, on a moving machine, or in a temporary 

packing shed, except that the Utah State Plan 

retains authority with respect to agricultural 

temporary labor camps engaged in egg, poultry, or 

red meat production or the post-harvest processing 

of agricultural or horticultural commodities. The 

Department of Labor Wage and Hour Division 

enforces the field sanitation standard and 

temporary labor camp standard with respect to the 

operations not covered by the Utah State Plan. 

development in the northern portion of 

the Lease Area and associated 

interconnection, and Project 2 refers to 

the development in the southern portion 

of the Lease Area and associated 

interconnection. The Project would 

consist of up to 149 positions in the 

Lease Area to be occupied by up to 147 

wind turbine generators and up to five 

offshore substation platforms (OSPs). 

The 149 positions will conform to a 1 

nm x 1 nm grid layout with an east-west 

and north-south orientation, which 

lessees agreed would apply across all 

the Massachusetts and Rhode Island 

wind energy areas. The Project would 

include one preferred export cable 

corridor making landfall and 

interconnecting to the ISO New England 

Inc. (ISO–NE) grid at Brayton Point, in 

Somerset, Massachusetts. This preferred 

export cable corridor to Brayton Point 

would be used for both Project 1 and 

Project 2. The Project would also 

include one variant export cable 

corridor, which, if used, would make 

landfall and interconnect to the ISO–NE 

grid in the town of Falmouth, 

Massachusetts. In the event that 

technical, logistical, grid 

interconnection, or other unforeseen 

challenges arise during the design and 

engineering phase that prevent Project 2 

from making interconnection at Brayton 

Point, Project 2 would use the Falmouth 

variant export cable corridor. 

Alternatives: BOEM considered 17 

alternatives when preparing the draft 

environmental impact statement and 

carried forward six alternatives for 

further analysis in the FEIS. These six 

alternatives include five action 

alternatives and the no action 

alternative. Eleven alternatives were not 

analyzed in detail, which are presented 

in FEIS chapter 2, because they did not 

meet the purpose and need for the 

proposed action or did not meet 

screening criteria. The screening criteria 

included consistency with law and 

regulations, technical and economic 

feasibility, environmental impacts, and 

geographic considerations. 

Availability of the FEIS: The FEIS, 

SouthCoast Wind COP, and associated 

information are available on BOEM’s 

website at: https://www.boem.gov/ 

renewable-energy/state-activities/ 

southcoast-wind-formerly-mayflowerwind. BOEM has distributed digital 

copies of the FEIS to all parties listed in 

FEIS Appendix M. If you require a flash 

drive or paper copy, BOEM will provide 

one upon request, as long as supplies 

are available. You may request a flash 

drive or paper copy of the FEIS by

DEPARTMENT OF LABOR 

Occupational Safety and Health 

Administration 

Utah State Plan; Change in Level of 

Federal Enforcement: Private-Sector 

Employment on Military Bases 

AGENCY: Occupational Safety and Health 

Administration (OSHA), Department of 

Labor. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: Federal OSHA currently has 

coverage over private sector employers 

at Hill Air Force Base and the Tooele 

Army Depot while the Utah State Plan 

covers private sector employers on all 

other United States military facilities 

within the State. This document gives 

notice of OSHA’s approval of a change 

to the State of Utah’s Occupational 

Safety and Health State Plan reinstating 

Federal OSHA enforcement authority 

over private sector employment on all 

United States military facilities and 

bases in Utah. 

DATES: Applicability Date: November 

15, 2024. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

For press inquiries: Mr. Frank 

Meilinger, Director, OSHA Office of 

Communications: telephone: (202) 693– 

1999; email: meilinger.francis2@dol.gov. 

For general and technical 

information: Douglas J. Kalinowski,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 18 

of the Occupational Safety and Health 

Act of 1970, 29 U.S.C. 667 (OSH Act), 

provides that States that assume 

responsibility for developing and 

enforcing their own occupational safety 

and health standards may do so by 

submitting and obtaining Federal 

approval of a State Plan. State Plan 

approval occurs in stages, which 

include initial approval under section 

18(c) of the OSH Act and, ultimately, 

final approval under section 18(e), 

signifying relinquishment of Federal 

enforcement authority with respect to 

occupational safety and health issues 

covered by the State Plan. 

The Utah State Plan was initially 

approved under section 18(c) of the 

OSH Act on January 10, 1973 (38 FR 

1178). The Utah State Plan is 

administered by the Utah Occupational 

Safety and Health Division (UOSH) of 

the Utah Labor Commission. On July 16, 

1985, OSHA announced the final 

approval of the Utah State Plan 

pursuant to section 18(e) and amended 

29 CFR part 1952 to reflect the Assistant 

Secretary’s decision (50 FR 28770). As 

a result, Federal OSHA relinquished its 

enforcement authority regarding 

occupational safety and health issues 

covered by the Utah State Plan. 

The Utah State Plan covers most 

private sector and all State and local 

government workers. The Utah State 

Plan does not cover: Federal 

Government employers, including the 

United States Postal Service (USPS), 

contract workers and contractoroperated facilities engaged in USPS mail 

operations; maritime employment; 

employment at the United States 

Department of Energy’s (DOE) Naval 

Petroleum and Oil Shale Reserve; all 

working conditions of aircraft cabin 

crewmembers onboard aircraft in 

operation; the enforcement of the field 

sanitation standard, 29 CFR 1928.110, 

and the temporary labor camps 

standard, 29 CFR 1910.142, with respect 

to any agricultural establishment where 

workers are engaged in ‘‘agricultural 

employment’’—within the meaning of 

the Migrant and Seasonal Agricultural 

Worker Protection Act, 29 U.S.C. 

1802(3) 1—regardless of the number of 

workers; and any hazard, industry, 

geographic area, operation, or facility 

over which the State is unable to 

effectively exercise authority for reasons 

not related to the required performance

or structure of the plan. In addition, 

Federal OSHA retains enforcement of 

the anti-retaliation provision of the 

Occupational Safety and Health Act of 

1970, section 11(c), 29 U.S.C. 660(c), 

with respect to the private sector. The 

Utah State Plan concurrently 

investigates private sector and State and 

local government workplace retaliation 

cases under a provision analogous to 

section 11(c). The Exceptions to the 

Utah State Plan’s occupational safety 

and health coverage are listed on 

OSHA’s website at https://

www.OSHA.gov/stateplans/ut. 

On March 25, 2024, the Utah State 

Plan requested that Federal OSHA 

resume enforcement authority over all 

private-sector employment on United 

States military facilities and bases 

within the State of Utah. Federal OSHA 

already retained enforcement authority 

over two bases in the State, Hill Air 

Force Base and the Tooele Army Depot, 

which includes the Tooele Chemical 

Demilitarization Facility. The Utah State 

Plan cited access restrictions impeding 

timely inspections and investigations on 

military installations as the primary 

reason for requesting this change in 

coverage. After discussions between 

Federal OSHA and the Utah State Plan, 

both agencies agreed that Federal OSHA 

coverage of all private sector employers 

on United States military facilities and 

bases was the best solution to ensure 

prompt and effective protection of 

private sector workers on such military 

facilities and bases in Utah. 

Accordingly, notice is hereby given of 

the change in Federal enforcement 

authority over private sector employers 

on all United States military facilities 

and bases in Utah, and coverage is 

transferred from the Utah State Plan to 

Federal OSHA.
