and operations plan (COP) for activities 

within the lease area. Revolution Wind, 

LLC has submitted a COP to BOEM 

proposing the construction, operation, 

maintenance, and conceptual 

decommissioning of the Revolution 

Wind project, a 704-megawatt (MW) 

commercial-scale offshore wind energy 

facility located within Lease Area OCS– 

A 0486 and consisting of up to 100 wind 

turbines, 2 offshore sub-stations, and 2 

transmission cables to shore. 

Revolution Wind anticipates activities 

potentially resulting in the taking of 

marine mammals could occur for the 

life of the requested regulations and 

LOA. This includes: 

• Construction-related highresolution site assessment geophysical 

surveys in all 5 years (248 survey days 

per year during Years 1; 25 survey days 

per year during Years 2 through 5); 

• the installation of up to 100 WTG 

monopile foundations (12-meter (m) 

diameter piles) by impact pile driving 

from May through December in Year 1 

over the course of 31 to 100 days; 

• the installation of 2 OSS 

foundations by impact pile driving of 2 

monopiles (15-m diameter piles) from 

May through December in Year 1 over 

the course of 2 days; 

• the installation and removal of 2 

temporary cofferdams by vibratory pile 

driving at the cable tie-in area in Year 

1 (14 days for installation and 14 days 

for removal per cofferdam; 56 days total) 

or, as an alternative to cofferdams (and 

also at the cable tie-in area in Year 1), 

installation and removal of 2 casing 

pipes by pneumatic hammering and 

supporting sheet piles by vibratory pile 

driving (2 days for installation and 2 

days for removal per casing pipe, 8 days 

total; 6 days for installation and 6 days 

for removal of support sheet piles per 

cable tie-in area, 24 days total); and, 

• the potential detonation of up to 13 

UXOs over the course of 13 days in Year 

1 (1 UXO detonation per day, as 

necessary). 

Revolution Wind has noted that these 

are the most accurate estimates for the 

durations of each planned activity, but 

that the schedule may shift over the 

course of the Project due to weather, 

mechanical, or other related delays. 

Information Solicited 

Interested persons may submit 

information, suggestions, and comments 

concerning Revolution Wind’s request 

(see ADDRESSES). NMFS will consider all 

information, suggestions, and comments 

related to the request during the 

development of proposed regulations 

governing the incidental taking of 

marine mammals by Revolution Wind, 

if appropriate.
