High-priority Eastport subsea proposal. Federal Register notice says DeepGreen filed, supplemented, and amended a preliminary-permit application for Project No. 15424-000; a preliminary permit would grant study priority only and would not authorize construction. Treat as an early-stage proposal pending FERC and local review.

Data Fields
Source leads point to attached records or reporting. They still need field-level review before being treated as verified evidence.
Source lead: local reporting says the project was estimated at $415 million and would seek federal tax credits through the Inflation Reduction Act. Actual public funding, tax-credit eligibility, grants, port/city agreements, and infrastructure-cost records still need review.
Source lead: Federal Register notice places the project in the Western Passage of the Bay of Fundy near Eastport and says a preliminary permit would only study feasibility. Marine water impacts, cooling design, environmental baseline studies, and FERC licensing records still need review.
Source lead: FERC/Federal Register and local reporting describe a 51 MW tidal-energy and subsea-compute project with turbines and compute pods. Interconnection, offtake, grid-delivery, and ratepayer records still need review.
