Abstract
The Coast Guard proposes to establish 55 temporary safety zones around the construction of each facility during the development of the Empire Wind 1 Wind Farm project area within federal waters on the Outer Continental Shelf, specifically in the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management Renewable Energy Lease Area OCS-A 0512, approximately 12 nautical miles south of Long Island, NY. This action protects life, property, and the environment during construction of each facility from March 1, 2025, to February 29, 2028. When enforced, only attending vessels and vessels with authorization are permitted to enter or remain in the temporary safety zones.
