The Port of Long Beach is asking the public to weigh in on Pier Wind, a proposal to build a 400-acre terminal that would focus on offshore wind turbine assembly and development.
The port is planning two open house events to answer questions about the project, followed by a scoping meeting to discuss the environmental review process for Pier Wind.
The feedback is expected to be part of the project’s Environmental Impact Report and Environmental Impact Statement.
The first open house is set for 5 p.m. Dec. 13 on the first floor Multipurpose Room of the port’s Administration Building, located at 415 W. Ocean Blvd. in Long Beach. The scoping meeting is set to follow at 6 p.m.
The second open house is 5 p.m. Jan. 10, also on the first floor Multipurpose Room, and is also followed by a 6 p.m. scoping meeting, which is to be held at the Bob Foster Civic Chambers in the Long Beach Civic Center, 411 W. Ocean Blvd. in Long Beach.
Validated parking is being made available at the nearby Superior Court of California parking garage, 101 Magnolia Ave., Long Beach.
Those who cannot attend either event may submit feedback by 4 p.m. on Jan. 19. The project’s Notice for Preparation and Initial Study are available at www.polb.com/ceqa.
