G-46  \nG-1  \nG.1 Mitigation and Monitoring  \nThe Final Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) assesses the potential biological, socioeconomic, physical, and cultural impacts that could result from the construction, operations and maintenance (O&M), and conceptual decommissioning of the Maryland Offshore Wind Project (Project) proposed by US Wind LLC (US Wind), in its Construction and Operations Plan (COP) (US Wind 20241) . The proposed Project described in the COP and this Final EIS would be up to 2,000 megawatts (MW) in scale and sited 11.5 statute miles (mi) (18 .5 kilometers [km]) off the coast of Maryland, within the area of Renewable Energy Lease Number OCS-A 0490 (Lease Area) . The Project is designed to serve demand for renewable energy in the Delmarva Peninsula, including Maryland.  \nAs part of the Project, US Wind has committed to implementing lessee-proposed measures (LPMs) to avoid, reduce, mitigate, or monitor impacts on the resources discussed in Chapter 3, Affected Environment and Environmental Consequences, of the Final EIS. These LPMs are described in Table G-1 of this appendix. The U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) considers as part of the Proposed Action only those measures that US Wind has committed to in Volume II, Section 1.5 of the COP (US Wind 2024) .  \nBOEM may select alternatives and require additional mitigation or monitoring measures to further protect and monitor these resources. Additional mitigation and monitoring measures may result from reviews under several environmental statutes (e.g., Clean Air Act, Endangered Species Act,  \nMagnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act, Marine Mammal Protection Act, and National Historic Preservation Act) that are described in Appendix A of the Final EIS. Additional mitigation measures identified by BOEM, as well as those that may result from reviews under these statutes, are provided in Table G-2 . Please note that some of these mitigation measures are outside of BOEM’s statutory and regulatory authority but could be adopted and imposed by other governmental entities. Table G-2 provides descriptions of these mitigation or monitoring measures, as well as those that BOEM has identified for analysis in the Final EIS. Other measures identified during development of this EIS are listed in Table G-3, and Table G-4 identifies measures that may be required by authorizationsand permits issued to the lessee.  \nIf BOEM decides to approve the COP, the Record of Decision (ROD) would state which of the mitigation and monitoring measures identified by BOEM in Table G-2 have been adopted, and if not, why they were not. As such, the ROD would inform terms and conditions of COP approval and would compel compliance with or execution of identified mitigation and monitoring measures (40 Code of Federal Regulations [CFR] 1505.3) . US Wind would be required to certify compliance with terms and conditions, as required under 30 CFR 285.633. On January 31, 2023, a Final Rule published in the Federal Register (FR) reassigning existing regulations governing safety and environmental oversight and enforcement of OCS renewable energy activities from BOEM to BSEE (88 FR 6376) .
