Empire Wind and the Building and Construction Trades Council of Greater New York and Vicinity (BCTC), along with other project stakeholders and elected officials, will hold a press event Wednesday, March 27, at the Electrical Industry Training Center in Long Island City.

A ceremonial signing will be held to inaugurate a historic Project Labor Agreement for New York labor to build a state-of-the-art offshore wind hub at the South Brooklyn Marine Terminal (SBMT). Elected representatives, union officials, project developers and suppliers will attend.

The press event marks the first Project Labor Agreement for offshore wind work in New York City. The agreement covers the revitalisation of SBMT as an operations and maintenance base for Empire Wind 1, as well as a world-class home for future offshore wind projects in the region.
