This Request for Information (RFI) from the Department of Energy (DOE) and Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) is for public input to shape a crucial research campaign. This initiative, planned for the next two to five years, aims to enhance our understanding of offshore wind energy development during the construction and operation phases of the first deployed facilities. Its primary purpose is to quantify the specific factors that may cause environmental impacts, such as construction sound. Additionally, the campaign seeks to evaluate the effectiveness of various monitoring technologies and techniques utilized at these offshore wind farms. Please note, this RFI is not a funding opportunity, and therefore, applications are not being accepted.

| Description: | The Department of Energy (DOE) and Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) invite input from the public regarding a research campaign to inform our understanding of offshore wind energy development that could be conducted in the next two to five years during the construction and operation of the first generation of deployed facilities. We aim to quantify the impact-producing factors (i.e. the characteristics of a project that may cause an impact, such as the sound produced during construction) associated with a project and to evaluate the efficacy of monitoring technologies and techniques deployed at offshore wind farms selected at a future date.
