The blade removal operation has been developed together with the salvage company Resolve Marine and includes four tasks: rotating the blade to reduce hanging blade and possible controlled cutting; removing the root of the blade from the hub; removing fallen debris from the platform; and addressing seabed debris.

As for the debris from the part of the blade that fell off in July , Vineyard Wind says it has been following its federally approved emergency response plan since the blade event occurred, tailoring it as needed for the specific situation.
