    The Department of the Interior is inviting the public to comment on the Florida Trustee Implementation Group's Draft Restoration Plan 2 and Environmental Assessment.

The proposals, which cost around $62.2 million, also aim to compensate for the lost recreational opportunities caused by the spill.

    The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) has released a Draft Environmental Assessment (EA) evaluating the impact of granting an Incidental Take Permit (ITP) to the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth School for Marine Science and Technology. This permit would allow the incidental capture of endangered species like sea turtles and sturgeon during fisheries surveys in the Massachusetts/Rhode Island Wind Energy Area. The draft is available for public comment until February 7, 2025. The evaluation considers two options: not issuing the permit or issuing it with specific conditions to minimize harm to the species.
