Key Points

Would require Trump (or a designee) to certify within 90 days that certain Atlantic offshore wind projects won’t interfere with military radar and sonar.
If that certification can’t be made, it directs Trump to halt any projects that are found to threaten national security.
Orders the Defense Department’s Inspector General to study how offshore wind could affect military air and sea traffic, training, combat, and rescue missions.
The study would also look at whether the offshore wind approval process is strong enough, including how agencies coordinate on radar/sonar concerns.
Requires the Inspector General to report findings to Congress within 180 days, with a public report and possibly a classified add-on.
