Protective Measures for North Atlantic Right Whales. SFW agrees to implement the following measures for responsible offshore wind development in constructing and operating the Project. Among other protections, these measures include acoustic and visual “Clearance Zones” for North Atlantic right whales. Where applicable, these Clearance Zones shall extend for the relevant distance specified in meters (“m”) herein, in all directions from the center of the applicable Project activity, e.g., from the pile or from the center of a survey vessel. As used (and as further specifically defined) in this Agreement, “Clearance Zone” may refer to either an acoustic or a visual Clearance Zone, or to both taken together.
