Oil and Gas and Sulphur Operations in the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) Plans and Information—Protection of Marine Mammals and Threatened and Endangered Species

Regulatory Information Number: 1010–AD10
Federal Register
Cite: 70, No. 171 FR 52953 (9/6/2005)

Summary: This proposed rule would require lessees of federal oil and gas leases in the OCS to provide information on how they will meet the requirements of the Endangered Species Act (ESA) and the Marine Mammal Protection Act (MMPA). It identifies environmental, monitoring, and mitigation information that lessees must submit with plans for exploration and development and production. This rulemaking clarifies our regulations about what information MMS needs to ensure compliance with the ESA and MMPA requirements. The proposed rule would assure that lessees conduct their activities in a manner consistent with the provisions of the ESA and MMPA.
