Notice
Summary
The Hampton Roads Bridge-Tunnel Expansion Project in Norfolk, Virginia, got the green light to accidentally disturb some marine mammals while building from April 2026 to March 2027. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration made sure this won’t harm the animals much and set rules to keep impacts as low as possible. This lets construction move forward while protecting local sea life.
