Program Objective

The Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE) provides major economic and energy benefits on a national and local level to the taxpayers and states. The Agency oversees the exploration and development of oil, natural gas and other minerals and renewable energy sources on the nation's Outer Continental Shelf (OCS). BSEE continues to look for better ways to serve the American people and to ensure that the nation receives the best oversight and regulation of national resource development now and into the future. BSEE not only supports decisions made within the Department of the Interior, but also provides coastal states and local governments with the information necessary to ensure that all stages of offshore energy and mineral activities are conducted in a manner that protects both human and natural environments. The OCS Lands Act (OCSLA) Sections 1347 and 1348 respectively mandate the development and enforcement of regulations that protect safety, health and the environment. OCSLA Section 1345 authorizes the use of cooperative agreements with affected states to meet the requirements of OCSLA, including sharing of information, joint utilization of available expertise, formation of joint monitoring arrangements to carry out applicable Federal and State laws, regulations, and stipulations relevant to OCS operations both onshore and offshore. The purposes of the BSEE Office of Offshore Regulatory Programs (OORP) is to obtain information to improve the knowledge, practices, and technologies used to promote operational safety and pollution prevention for offshore oil and gas, wind, and other marine energy activities.
