AU - Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM)
AB - This document provides guidance to offshore wind energy developers and the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) on best practices to reliably collect, analyze, and use site-specific metocean data. The objectives of this guideline are to:Provide offshore wind energy stakeholders with comprehensive guidance on accepted and emerging metocean characterization techniques that deliver essential data parameters while meeting minimum quality standards and quantifying uncertainty.Elevate the industry’s practices to a range of peer-reviewed metocean characterization methods.Provide guidance to renewable energy developers and BOEM on best practices to reliably collect, analyze, and use that site-specific data when developing Facility Design Reports and Construction and Operations Plans, as required in the Code of Federal Regulations, 30 CFR 585.700 and 585.600, respectively.
