The U.S. Offshore Wind Collaborative and Clean Energy States Alliance will host a webinar to brief participants on the recent comprehensive offshore wind ecological studies project, conducted by the New Jersey Department of the Environment. The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) led a 2-year research project to fill major data gaps regarding birds, sea turtles, marine mammals, and other natural resources and their environments in a 1,300-square-mile ocean study area off the New Jersey coast. The study, completed in 2010, assessed the environmental impacts at sites proposed for several wind energy projects in waters adjacent to the state. Gary Buchanan, NJ DEP's Office of Science manager, will provide an overview of the study and its key findings.
