The final State of the Science workgroup reports are available on the NYSERDA Environmental Technical Working Group website.
Following plenary presentations in November of 2020 on the cumulative impacts to wildlife from offshore wind energy development, seven workgroups met over the winter to identify short-term research priorities for understanding offshore wind’s cumulative impacts on sea turtles, marine mammals, fishes, invertebrates, birds, bats, and oceanographic processes in the eastern United States. More than 200 people contributed their expertise to these discussions.
