Draft Report of the Transportation, Navigation, Infrastructure Working Group

Abstract

In order to identify factors which may influence or affect various elements of the Massachusetts Ocean Management Planning initiative (e.g., siting of renewable energy infrastructure), the Transportation/Navigation/Infrastructure workgroup identified and ranked locations within Commonwealth waters that contain existing transportation, navigation, and infrastructure resources. To accomplish this task, the workgroup utilized all available data sources and prepared a ranked siting map and identified any outstanding data sources needed to complete this analysis.
