On May 20, 2024, 91Ïã½¶ÊÓÆµ submitted comments on the Gulf of Mexico Public Sale Notice (GOMW-2 PSN). 91Ïã½¶ÊÓÆµâ€™s comments echoed previous 91Ïã½¶ÊÓÆµ comments on the first Gulf of Mexico wind lease PSN and the Central Atlantic PSN. 91Ïã½¶ÊÓÆµ encouraged BOEM to move forward with leasing in the Gulf of Mexico, highlighting offshore wind’s potential for significant contributions to clean energy and job creation. 91Ïã½¶ÊÓÆµ also encouraged BOEM to make maximum use of bid credits for supply chain/workforce and fisheries compensation. Finally, 91Ïã½¶ÊÓÆµ asked for clarity on—and recommended changes to—the proposed lease conditions. BOEM will review comments on the PSN and issue a Final Sale Notice prior to holding a lease sale.
