The U.S. Coast Guard has established 179 temporary 500-meter safety zones around the construction of 176 wind turbine generators and three (3) offshore substations in Federal waters on the Outer Continental Shelf, east northeast of Virginia Beach, Virginia. This action is necessary to protect life, property and the environment during construction of the foundations and the subsequent installation of the turbine components, from May 1, 2024, to May 1, 2027. When enforced, only attending vessels and those vessels specifically authorized by the Fifth Coast Guard District Commander, or a designated representative, are permitted to enter or remain in the temporary safety zones. Each of the 179 temporary safety zones will be enforced individually, for a period lasting approximately 48 hours, as construction progresses from one structure to the next. See Dominion Energy Monthly Mariner's Update for all activity. https://safe.menlosecurity.com/https://coastalvawind.com/resources.aspx All offshore construction activities are weather dependent and may be pushed out due to projected weather conditions. F/Vs NOREEN MARIE and PONTOS will be providing safety vessel duties in the wind energy area and the export cable corridor and can be hailed on CH 16 24/7. Mariners are encouraged to reference the latest Mariner’s Update publication for further information on project planning and progress. USCG East District Local Notice to Mariners 45/2026
