Comment Submitted by New England Fishermen's Stewardship Association

Summary: The New England Fishermen's Stewardship Association (NEFSA) supports the Atlantic Fairways initiative but argues that the Draft PEIS/OEIS fails to adequately analyze the specific areas where commercial fishing, shipping, and offshore wind development overlap. They request a 90-day extension of the comment period, additional public meetings, and supplemental analyses to better evaluate the cumulative impacts on fishing communities and port access.
