With the deadline looming 3 July, environmental activists are calling for more time to review and comment on the draft environmental impact statement (EIS) for the mammoth 2.9GW Atlantic Shores project off New Jersey.

The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM), lead regulator of energy development in federal waters, released the project’s 1,000-page draft EIS in May, opening a 45-day comment period that ends this coming Monday.
