Marine Energy Environmental Toolkit for Permitting and Licensing

The permitting and licensing process for marine energy in the U.S. could take up to 7 years for even small demonstrations or pilot studies despite existing resources like Tethys, MarineCadstre, and the FERC E-Library. The goal of the Marine Energy Environmental Toolkit Project was to increase regulators, developers, and marine energy innovators’ understanding of potential environmental effects of marine energy conversion devices deployments and provide information to make efficient and effective determinations during permitting and licensing; develop a one-stop shop for existing environmental, spatial, regulatory, and scientific data that allows users to access disparate sources of data through a series of tags and spatial queries. The Toolkit (marineenergy.app) builds upon prior U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Water Power Technologies Office (WPTO) investments by pulling from WPTO-funded and outside resources to facilitate the permitting and licensing process, inform technology developers of required permits, and disseminate the latest knowledge of the environmental effects of these devices to regulators, developers, and marine energy innovators and stakeholders.

Millinocket Stream, Maine Velocity and Bathymetry Measurements 2021

ORPC staff collected site characterization data on Millinocket Stream, downstream of the hydropower station at the former Great Northern Paper Mill site in Millinocket, Maine. Bathymetry was collected with a SonTek M9 using HydroSurveyor software package and velocity was collected using the SonTek M9 RiverSurveyor software package. Bathymetry only was collected on 9/30/21. Bathymetry and velocity were collected on 10/21/21.
