When island weather clears, crews will return to the beaches to continue operations. Monitoring and coordination continues across all areas, and we continue to keep municipal, tribal, state and federal authorities updated. Incident hotline: 833-609-5768 (2/2)

We continue to assist in the recovery response following the unexpected damage to GE Vernova's blade. Vessels continue to collect debris, noting loads are lighter than prior days. On land, our crews helped collect additional debris identified yesterday. (1/2)

Shorebird monitoring continues as well on Muskeget and Tuckernuck, and those efforts are closely coordinated with all debris removal efforts in those areas. We continue to keep municipal, tribal, state and federal authorities updated. Incident hotline: 833-609-5768 (2/2)

Vineyard Wind’s assistance in response to the unexpected damage to GE’s Vernova blade continues. Land, sea and air response teams are working in tandem, and the ongoing monitoring and removal has found limited, scattered debris. (1/2)

The Chatham Harbormaster reported that debris from the damaged GE Vernova wind turbine blade was located 3.5 mi southeast of Monomoy Island, 9 vessels were immediately dispatched to the area, and the debris recovered at approximately 4:30 PM.

A significant part of the remaining GE Vernova blade detached from the turbine. With public officials, we'll continue to keep the islands informed of developments as we work with our partners to respond to this evolving situation, with everyone's safety as our highest priority.
