TY - RPRT TI - Appendix E-2 LimnoTech Report - Results of 2017 Aquatic Sampling AU - LimnoTech AB - This document is Appendix E-2 from the Final Environmental Assessment LEEDCo Project Icebreaker Lake Erie, City of Cleveland, Cuyahoga County, Ohio. The proposed Icebreaker Wind demonstration project will include installation of six wind turbines, 8 to 10 miles offshore of Cleveland, Ohio in the Central Basin of Lake Erie. The turbines will be placed in water depths ranging from 58 feet to 63 feet, each with a nameplate capacity of 3.45 megawatts (MW) for a total generating capacity of 20.7 MW. A 2.3-mile buried electric cable will connect the six turbines, and an approximate 9.3-mile buried electric cable will connect the turbines to the Cleveland Public Power Lake Road substation.The purpose of this report is to document the field methods, results, and analysis carried out in 2017 to support the Icebreaker Wind project. LimnoTech, under contract to Icebreaker Windpower, Inc., led a multi-disciplinary team of researchers to collect site specific data at the site of and in the vicinity of the proposed Offshore Wind (OSW) demonstration project in Lake Erie. The report includes the following major sections:Project introduction (Section 1)Sampling methods (Section 2) Results and discussion (Section 3)Conclusion (Section 4)References (Section 5)Appendices DA - 2018/02// PY - 2018 SP - 63 PB - LimnoTech SN - DOE/EA-2045 UR - https://www.energy.gov/sites/prod/files/2018/09/f55/EA-2045_Appendix_E-2_LimnoTech_2017_Aquatic_AnnualReport.pdf LA - English KW - Wind Energy KW - Fixed Offshore Wind KW - Fish KW - Invertebrates ER -
