Updated: Nov 18, 2024

The Whale Communications Specialist Committee, a specialist committee of the E-TWG, has released the first round of an FAQ document to aid in the dissemination of current, accurate, and readily understandable information around whale mortality events and the level of potential risk to whales from offshore wind energy development activities. Committee members represent a variety of sectors including offshore wind developers, government agencies, and environmental nonprofit organizations.


This FAQ document is intended to primarily be used as a resource for stakeholders who are in direct communication with the general public and who regularly receive questions from the public on these topics. The FAQ development process includes multiple rounds of expert review from experts external to the committee and the E-TWG. New sections of the FAQ document are being publicly released as they are finalized. View Document.
