In May 2024, the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) Oregon Intergovernmental Renewable Energy Task Force (“Task Force”), reflects a partnership between federal, territory, and local agencies, as well as offices who regularly engage with members of the Tribal community. The Task Force serves as a renewable energy forum to discuss issues and concerns, including those identified by the Tribal community; exchange data and information about biological, cultural, and physical resources, ocean uses, and priorities; and facilitate early and continual dialogue and collaboration opportunities. At this meeting, BOEM shared information regarding its offshore wind leasing process well as its studies on this renewable resource.
In this video clip, BOEM experts provide an update on offshore wind planning activities, including updates on the Proposed Sale Notice components and the Draft Environmental Assessment.
