BlueFloat Energy's proposed South Pacific Offshore Wind Project—a 1.6 GW floating wind facility off the Illawarra Coast, NSW—is documented through communications between the developer, a public affairs consultant, and DCCEEW officials. The disclosure includes correspondence from January 2025 and November 2023 referencing the project's website and a comprehensive community consultation report covering engagement with local communities, industry groups, traditional owners, fishing and boating sectors across multiple declared offshore wind zones (Gippsland, Southern Winds, South Pacific, Eastern Rise). The documents emphasize BlueFloat's claimed integration of stakeholder feedback and commitment to social licensing. No specific EPBC Act assessment outcomes, scientific advice on marine environmental impacts, or regulatory compliance determinations are included in these excerpts.
