Summary
The U.S. Coast Guard got permission to do construction work at Naval Station Newport, Rhode Island, that might accidentally disturb some marine mammals. This approval covers two years, from June 2027 to May 2029, and ensures the work won’t harm the animals in a big way. It’s all about balancing building new Offshore Patrol Cutters with protecting ocean life—no big costs or delays expected!
