The State of Maine is pursuing the development of a floating offshore wind Research array in the Gulf of Maine ( www.maine.gov/energy/initiatives/offshorewind/projects ). The State, through the Governor's Energy Office (GEO) and in collaboration with the Department of Marine Resources (DMR), is fully committed to engaging stakeholders, in particular the fishing industry, in the development of the project, its siting, and the research questions that the initiative seeks to answer. The State has initiated a collaborative process that gives fishermen and other stakeholders direct influence in the development of the proposed project.

Please join us to learn more about Maine's plans for a Research Array and how you can be involved in the process!

We are offering four dates for informational webinars to best fit with a variety of schedules (all webinars will share the same basic content). The webinars will be recorded and posted online for those who cannot attend. All meetings are open to the public. Pre-registration is required.

Webinars will take place from 6:00 PM - 7:30 PM

Fishing Industry-Focused Webinars*: 12/15, 12/16, 12/22

General Interest Webinar: 12/17

*The intent of holding fishing industry-focused webinars is to allow meeting participants to focus on discussion topics of greatest importance to members of the sector.
