Another Humpback whale was seen floating approximately 4,500 feet of the coast of New Jersey on Wednesday, March 1.
"We are working with local authorities and the USCG to actively monitor the whale to see where it might land," NOAA spokeswoman Allison Ferreira said in a statement. Since the whale has not washed ashore, the cause of the humpback is currently unknown.
NOAA say there is no evidence that noise resulting from wind development-related site characterization surveys could potentially cause mortality of whales, as well as no specific links between recent large whale mortalities and currently ongoing surveys.
