SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

SouthCoast Wind seeks approval to 

construct, operate, and maintain the 

Project: a wind energy facility and the 

associated export cables on the Outer 

Continental Shelf (OCS) offshore 

Massachusetts and Rhode Island. The 

Project would be developed within the 

range of design parameters outlined in 

the COP, subject to applicable 

mitigation measures. 

A notice of availability for the final 

EIS was published in the Federal 

Register on November 15, 2024 at 89 FR 

90316. On December 16, 2024, BOEM 

published an errata on its website that 

included certain edits to the Executive 

Summary, Chapter 2, Chapter 3, 

Appendix F, Appendix G, Appendix I, 

Appendix N, and Appendix O. None of 

these edits are substantive or affect the 

analysis or conclusions in the final EIS. 

The proposed Project would be 

located about 26 nautical miles (nm) (48 

kilometers) south of Martha’s Vineyard 

and 20 nm (37 kilometers) south of 

Nantucket in the area defined in 

BOEM’s renewable energy lease number 

OCS–A 0521 (Lease Area). The Lease 

Area covers approximately 127,388 

acres. 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. The 149 positions 

will conform to a 1 nm x 1 nm grid 

layout with an east-west and northsouth 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. The Project would be 

developed in two parts or projects: 

Project 1 refers to the 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 

preferred export cable corridor to 

Brayton Point would be used for both 

Project 1 and Project 2 to be built out 

within the Lease Area. The Project 

would also include one variant export 

cable corridor that, 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. 

After carefully considering public 

comments on the draft EIS and the 

alternatives described and analyzed in 

the final EIS, DOI selected Alternative 

D, ‘‘Nantucket Shoals,’’ which 

eliminates six wind turbine generators 

from the Project as proposed in the COP. 

Alternative D is the Preferred 

Alternative identified in the final EIS. 

The anticipated mitigation, monitoring, 

and reporting requirements, which will 

be included in BOEM’s COP approval as 

terms and conditions, are included in 

Appendix A of the ROD, which is 

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

renewable-energy/state-activities/ 

southcoast-wind-formerly-mayflowerwind. 

NMFS has adopted BOEM’s final EIS 

to support its decision about whether or 

not to promulgate the requested ITR and 

issue the associated LOA to SouthCoast 

Wind. NMFS’ final decision of whether 

or not to promulgate the requested ITR 

and issue the LOA will be documented 

in a separate Decision Memorandum 

prepared in accordance with internal 

NMFS policy and procedures. The final 

ITR and a notice of issuance of the LOA, 

if issued, would be published in the 

Federal Register. The LOA would 

authorize SouthCoast Wind to take 

small numbers of marine mammals 

incidental to Project construction and 

would set forth: permissible methods of 

incidental taking; means of effecting the 

least practicable adverse impact on the 

species and their habitat; and 

requirements for monitoring and 

reporting. Pursuant to Section 7 of the 

Endangered Species Act (ESA), NMFS 

issued a final Biological Opinion to 

BOEM on November 7, 2024, evaluating 

the effects of the proposed action on 

ESA-listed species. The proposed action 

in the Biological Opinion includes the 

associated permits, approvals, and 

authorizations that may be issued. 

USACE has decided to adopt BOEM’s 

final EIS and issue a permit to 

SouthCoast Wind under section 10 of 

the RHA and section 404 of the CWA. 

The USACE permit will authorize 

SouthCoast Wind to discharge fill below 

the high tide line of waters of the United 

States. It will also authorize SouthCoast 

Wind to perform work and place 

structures below the mean high water 

mark of navigable waters of the United 

States and to affix structures to the 

seabed on the OCS.

On the basis of the record 1 developed 

in the subject five-year reviews, the 

United States International Trade 

Commission (‘‘Commission’’) 

determines, pursuant to the Tariff Act of 

1930 (‘‘the Act’’), that revocation of the 

countervailing duty order on raw 

flexible magnets from China and 

revocation of the antidumping duty 

orders on raw flexible magnets from 

China and Taiwan would be likely to 

lead to continuation or recurrence of 

material injury to an industry in the 

United States within a reasonably 

foreseeable time.2

Background 

The Commission instituted these 

reviews on June 3, 2024 (89 FR 47607) 

and determined on September 6, 2024, 

that it would conduct expedited reviews 

(89 FR 81938, October 9, 2024). 

The Commission made these 

determinations pursuant to section 

751(c) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1675(c)). It 

completed and filed its determinations 

in these reviews on December 20, 2024. 

The views of the Commission are 

contained in USITC Publication 5574 

(December 2024), entitled Raw Flexible 

Magnets from China and Taiwan: 

Investigation Nos. 701–TA–452 and 

731–TA–1129–1130 (Third Review).
