This data set is the spatial documentation of the Coos Bay Wave Energy Project preliminary permit application. The Project is to be sited in the Pacific Ocean in Coos County, Oregon, northwest of the town of Coos Bay. The site is situated within the state boundary in the open ocean about 2.5 miles from shore in water depths that range from 25 to 40 fathoms (45-75 m). The approximate dimensions of the proposed site are 1 mile wide (east-west direction) by 5 miles long (in the north-south direction). It is anticipated that the power transmission cable will be connected to approximately the southern portion of the array and will follow an easterly course to an existing distribution line onshore operated by Cental Lincoln Public Utility District.

This data set is the spatial documentation of the Coos County Offshore Wave Energy Project preliminary permit application. The Project is to be sited in the Pacific Ocean in Coos County, Oregon, just north of the Curry County line and southwest of the City of Bandon. The site is situated within the state boundary in the open ocean about 2 to 4 miles from shore in water depths that range from 20 to 40 fathoms (40 - 75 m). The approximate dimensions of the proposed site are 3 mile wide (east-west direction) by 7.8 miles long (in the north-south direction). The final installed wave facility will require significantly less area than that proposed in the preliminary permit.

This data set is the spatial documentation of the Lincoln County Wave Energy Project preliminary permit application. The Porject is to be situated in the Pacific Ocean within the Territorial Sea direclty offshore of Lincoln county. This permit application was not accepted by FERC due to it's limited specificity and broad scope.

This data set is the spatial documentation of the Newport Ocean Power Technology (OPT) preliminary permit application. The Project is to be sited in the Pacific Ocean in Lincoln County, Oregon, south of the town of Newport and north of Waldport. The site is situated in the open ocean about from 3 to 6 miles from shore in water depths that range from 20 to 35 fathoms (36 - 60 m). The approximate dimensions of the proposed site are 3.5 mile wide (east-west direction) by 5 miles long (in the north-south direction). It is anticipated that the power transmission cable will be connected to approximately the central portion of the array and will follow an easterly course to an existing distribution line onshore operated by Cental Lincoln Public Utility District.

Polygon file consisting of approximately 199 square miles identified by Ocean Power Technologies (OPT) as areas attractive for Wave Energy. OPT believes that the areas listed would be sufficient to promote responsible wave energy development within the Territorial Sea through the 2025 time-frame. Polygons have not been clipped to remove the area between the coastal baseline and the 25 meter depth eastern boundary of the zones.

Reedsport OPT Wave Park, LLC applied for a preliminary permit to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. The Project would be located in the Pacific Ocean in Douglas County, Oregon. The site is situated within the state boundary in the open ocean about 3 miles from shore in water depths that range from 25 to 35 fathoms (45-65m) of depth. The approximate dimensions of the proposed site are 1 mile wide (east-west direction) by 5 miles long (in the north-south direction). It is anticipated that the power transmission cable will be connected to approximately the north-south center of the array and will follow an easterly course to the outlet of the existing waste water discharge pipe from the now closed International Paper Plant.
